Abstract
A multiple registration position screen mounting apparatus or printing head assembly particularly well-suited for screen printing of jersey numerals of like indicia on garments. The printing head assembly of the present invention includes a screen receiving socket portion slideably mounted for horizontal movement between a plurality of releasably fixed registration positions related to the desired placement of one and two digit numerals on athletic jerseys or the like. The printing head assembly is fixed to a conventional vertically pivoted arm mounted on a main frame adjacent to a pallet and includes a pair of horizontal guide bars upon which a carriage forming a screen receiving socket portion is slideably mounted. A registration plate is fixed to the main frame and is provided with spaced positioning slots adapted to mate with a locking pin depending from the socket portion to releasably fit the socket portion in one of the predetermined positions of travel along the guide bars. The socket portion has a recessed opening adapted to removably receive the leading or inner end of a screen frame in a close tolerance fit to automatically and precisely position each screen in the same mounting position on the slideably carriage.
