DEFINITION

Classification: 400/140

Including type-faces movable relative to type-face-carrier:

(under subclass 139) Subject matter wherein a typewriter is provided with a type-face-carrier* that supports a type-set-assemblage* comprising a plurality of separate type-face* elements, and wherein the typewriter is also provided with a mechanism for selecting or choosing the particular type-face that is to be impressed against the record-medium* and with a mechanism for moving said type-face toward the print-point*.

(1) Note. In this and indented subclasses the term type-face may include, for example, an element carrying both the upper-case* and lower-case* forms of the same letter, and both forms on the same element are moved together, although only the chosen form of the letter is impressed against the record-medium. The relative movement referred to is that which moves the element for the selected letter away from the other type-face elements of a type-set-assemblage and toward the print-point.
