Abstract
Converter for a fuel pump computer having a register driven by a variator normally connected to be driven by a meter wherein the converter is attachable to the variator for driving it by a variator drive gear in the converter which has a meter driven rotary input and change speed gearing for expanding the price range of the computer. In a first setting, the rotary input is connected to the variator drive gear in 1:1 drive ratio. In a second setting, the rotary input is connected to the variator drive gear via the change speed gearing to provide a selected drive ratio for a different unit volume of fuel delivered. The settings of the converter are changed by an interlock providing an irreversible gear ratio changeover.
