ABSTRACT:
A unidirectional drive assembly for a mechanically driven meter register includes a gear shift operated gear ratio mechanism which allows a dial on the meter register to be driven up-scale at a normal rate with the forward direction of rotation of the meter input drive and driven up-scale at a compensated or faster rate with the reverse direction of rotation of the meter input drive. The ratio of the gears of the gear ratio mechanism can easily be changed to provide ratios which compensate for meter drag when the meter is run in the inverted position so that the meter registers correctly when operated in either the upright or inverted position, or to provide ratios which make the meter dial run up-scale at a faster than normal rate when the meter is tampered with to make its input drive operate in the reverse direction of rotation.
