  • Patent number: 4249662
    Abstract: The invention relates to a data register with a register card selection mechanism, whose selector keys connected with the swivel levers are arranged one behind the other and alongside one another in an opening of the housing in such a way that the width of each selector key corresponds to the width of the swivel levers, while the card restraining pins on each swivel lever are formed from U-shaped portions shaped onto the swivel lever end with a rod which engages from below in the register card opening, the drawer being open at the back and at both sides, whereby the two lateral drawer limiting walls are formed by two boundary walls shaped onto the inner wall surface of the housing cover and arranged on either side of the plate-shaped drawer base and whereby the swivel levers are guided on the end carrying the card restraining pin, while the drawer unlocking mechanism comprises a U-shaped shackle directly responsible for the locking and unlocking of the drawer.

  • Patent number: 4175663
    Abstract: A compact index card register of relatively small dimensions, consisting of a housing with a keyboard of several selector keys arranged in an array of rows and columns, and within the housing a drawer adapted to be moved outwardly from the housing and to accommodate a stack of index cards. Parts associated with each selector key and the housing serve to retain a predetermined number of index cards within the housing and to release the drawer for outward movement whereby all but the predetermined number of index cards are moved outwardly together with the drawer, in exposing to sight an index card corresponding to the actuated selector key. Every index card includes a selector tongue with a predetermined number of selector apertures.
