Abstract

1377533 Franking machine G CHENUT 6 June 1972 [7 June 1971] 26392/72 Heading B6D In a letter franking machine a weighing device is operatively connected to the printing device so as to render it inoperative when a letter which is overweight for the predetermined amount to be franked is placed in the machine. An overweight letter 2 depresses the letter support 1 supported by a beam 12 so as to open normally closed contacts 18, 19 in the printing device 4, 5, circuit, and close normally open contacts 18, 20, to give an alarm. The balance counterweight 14 is adjustable, for different weight ranges. The support 1 is normally retained in it upper position by a cam 15 which is retracted upon initiation of a franking operation by the operator or it may be locked in position to override the weight, control device.
