Abstract: A pricing mechanism for a mechanical computer, used in connection with a fuel dispensing pump, is of expanded capacity, enabling a price of $0.000 to $4.999 to be set and posted. The mechanism for expanding the variator comprises a supplemental range assembly, which cooperates with a secondary cone gear and a secondary summing mechanism disposed on the shaft of one of the range arm assemblies; the selector gear of the supplemental assembly can be selectively positioned to post a dollar value through four dollars. Means for reducing the speed of the output gears of the range arm assemblies, and for minimizing the size of the secondary integrator, are also provided.

Abstract: A mechanical integrator, such as may be used in a fuel pump variator, is of reduced size, adapting it for use in applications in which the space available is limited. It employs three planetary gears having odd numbers of teeth, and may utilize the mounting shaft as one input signal source. The planetary gears are mounted in a relationship of isosceles triangularity, typically with complementary angles of 108.degree. and 144.degree. therebetween.

Abstract: An assembly for installation into a fuel dispensing pump permits its conversion from gallon- to liter-based operation upon the mere pulling of a shift pin.
