ABSTRACT:
A punch for a codeable card, having spaces arranged in columns and rows, is disclosed. The punch has a base for supporting a card which slides on the base. The slide has an upper part and a lower part with the base secured between them. A slot in the slide enables the operator to select the particular file of spaces on the card. A pointer on the punch enables the operator to move the card through the punch to the particular code of the index on the card, whereby the operator can punch the code he wishes on the card. The punch is highly portable, rugged and dependable and suitable for meter reading, inventory purposes and other applications requiring that the information be coded on key-punch cards.
The device is simple to operate, reliable, requires little maintenance and above all, is an accurate punch. The punch is made in the current design to provide alignment guides for column placing and a mechanism for easy checking.
