ABSTRACT:
The device for mounting a daisy-wheel character carrying disc (70) in a printing machine comprises a frame (22) which is pivoted on a guide (13) of the carriage (12) that is parallel to the platen roller (11) and on which are mounted a selector motor (15) with which the character carrying disc is to be coupled, a striker hammer (16) and a pocket (60) into which the character carrying disc is inserted. A manually actuable mechanism (40) causes the frame (22), striker hammer (16) and the selector motor (15) to swing away from the platen roller (11) and at the same time causes the pocket (60) to be lifted, thus permitting the character carrying disc (70) to be removed and/or inserted from above. Coaxial coupling between the motor shaft (76) and the disc (70) and positioning of the disc between the platen roller and the striker hammer are effected automatically by manually actuating the mechanism (40) connected to the frame (22) to swing the frame back again towards the platen.
