Abstract

The invention relates to a mechanism for raising and lowering a ribbon in front of the typing area of a typewriter or similar machine. The mechanism is so designed that only a few lightweight plastic parts need be moved thereby greatly reducing the actuating force necessary to elevate a ribbon. The mechanism also is configured to track the ribbon such that deformation of the ribbon as could impair proper functioning of the lifting and/or transporting of the ribbon during the ribbon lifting motion is minimized.
