TYPE CARRIER SET AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLING STAMPING PRINTING

摘要

A type carrier set (10) for a stamp printing mechanism is described which comprises a plurality of type carriers (12) which carry print types (22) at their outer surface in consecutive fields (16). The type carriers (12) are disposed parallel adjacent each other in the order necessary for use in the stamp printing mechanism. The adjacently disposed type carriers (12) are connected together by connecting webs (28) adapted to be sheared off. In the method according to the invention for assembly the stamp printing mechanism using a type carrier set according to the invention in which the type carriers are endless bands, the type bands connected together are separated from each other consecutively in each case on turning for the first time of the setting shaft by shearing off the connecting webs (28).
