Carrier for type carriers on a type cylinder for a type printing machine as for example a telex or teletype printing machine. The type carriers are biased against the peripheral face of the cylinder by an elastic belt or band, accommodating radial outward movement of the type carriers to make a printing impression and then returning the type carriers to their rest positions after a printing operation. The elastic band may be formed from an elastic belt made from rubber, an elastomer or a like material, which may extend through apertured portions of the type carriers to retain the type carriers to the type cylinder. The belt may also be in the form of a relatively wide flat band having uniformly spaced apertures extending therethrough, and forming a means to accommodate buttoning of the type carriers to the band. |
