ABSTRACT:
A screen printing apparatus particularly useful for printing numerals on athletic wear characterized by a plurality of printing head assemblies, each of which include a screen receiving socket, are mounted in a horizontal extending side by side relationship in a plane disposed above a printing station provided with a material receiving pallet. The printing head assemblies are slideably carried on a frame support for selective horizontal movement of a given printing head assembly over the pallet. Each printing head assembly is mounted to a sliding frame or carriage for independent vertical pivotal movement toward and away from the pallet to define a printing and non-printing position. Means are also provided to releasably and selectively fix each of the printing head assembly means with a screen mounted thereon in one of a plurality of printing positions overlying the pallet upon pivoting the printing head disposed directly over the pallet to a printing position. Therefore using only ten printing heads each carrying a single digit numeral in a single color from 0 to 9 permits the printing of any numberal in the series of 0 to 99 without the need to remove any printing screens from the printing head.
