Device for holding down copy material in sheet form for office, data, or telex machines

摘要

A device for holding copy material in sheet-form for use with office, data, telex machines and the like, which is so constructed that a curve is formed in the supported copy sheet which extends parallel to the line direction thereof, whereby the copy sheet is sufficiently stiffened by such curve that the holding device may directly support merely a portion of the copy sheet. Preferably, the supporting surface for the sheet is formed in two sections, one of which may be a portion of the housing of the machine and the other section constructed for disposition in either an operative or a folded down position.
