ABSTRACT:
A remote adding and reading device useful in reading a utility meter is disclosed. The device includes a main totalizing register having a first decade counter adapted to be driven by the measuring device of the meter and an auxiliary totalizing register having a second reversible decade counter respectively contained in two distinct cases. The case containing the auxiliary totalizing register is removable, and the auxiliary totalizing register is driven by the main totalizing register through a contactless drive. Reading is accomplished by means of a portable apparatus which plugs into the case containing the auxiliary totalizing register. The portable apparatus causes the second decade counter to be reset to zero and, in the process, the quantity accumulated by the auxiliary totalizing register since the preceding reading is read out.
