A fluid dispensing apparatus for dispensing oil or grease is disclosed. The fluid dispensing apparatus comprises a base frame and a container coupled to the base frame via an elongated rod. The container stores oil or grease. The fluid dispensing apparatus comprises a plate provided within the container. The plate is coupled to the elongated rod. The fluid dispensing apparatus comprises a first hose coupled to the container. Further, the fluid dispensing apparatus comprises a second hose and a third hose coupled to the first hose via a diverter valve. The third hose is coupled to a gun member. The gun member comprises a dispensing pipe. A user places one leg on the base frame and holds the handle with one hand and the gun member with another. The user presses the container such that the plate pushes the oil into the first hose, and the oil is made to flow into the gun member. The user directs the dispensing pipe to dispense the oil.

Fluid dispensing apparatus for dispensing oil or grease

A ribbon feed mechanism for a typewriter has a linkage for incrementally feeding a ribbon, a power roll rotated by a motor and a control member actuated by a printing mechanism for connecting the power roll to the linkage to incrementally feed the ribbon. The control member is also actuated by a carriage shift mechanism when shifting a carriage from an upper case position to a lower case position for connecting the power roll to the linkage to incrementally feed the ribbon.

Ribbon feed mechanism responsive to case shaft mechanism and printing

A ribbon feed mechanism for typewriters operable to incrementally feed a ribbon with a dual segment continuous motion ribbon feed. The ribbon is advanced an initial segment by a power actuated linkage and advanced a final segment by a spring urged arm acting on a multi-toothed cam. The initial segment feed occurs when a bellcrank is pivoted, and through a linkage, urges a ribbon metering shaft to rotate which, in turn, feeds the ribbon. Simultaneously, a spring biased cam follower is gradually displaced by the multi-toothed cam which is supported on the metering shaft. The final segment feed occurs as the spring biased cam follower is rapidly displaced down a cam surface of a tooth on the multi-toothed cam.
