Excerpt from Alien Property Custodian: Refrigerator Boxes

To carry out a multiplication, the paper car riage 5, Fig. 1, of the machine, which is sup posed to be in the right-hand position, is first tabulated into the corresponding decimal place with the respective column totalizer in which the multiplicand shall also be introduced, besides its introduction into the multiplicand apparatus 242 of the multiplication mechanism illustrated in Fig. 23. If, however, the retaining of the multiplicand of the multiplicator in the column totalizers is not required, the latter are replaced by zero totalizers on the totalizer suspension rail 6. Then the preparatory key 14 is depressed, whereby the key lever 60 and the slide 61, Fig. 9, are moved anti-clockwise around the shaft 28. Consequently the control clutch 62, 63, 64 is connected in known manner for a complete turn with the driving shaft 33 which is moved in the direction of arrow 32. During the first half-turn of the control clutch 62, 63, 64 the rising curved part of the cam 63 engages the roller 14 of the lever 15 and moves it around the pinion 11 in the reverse direction of arrow 19 and against the action of the spring 18. In this way the draw hook 81 is moved in the direction of arrow 110, Figs. 7 to 9, whereby the angle lever 83 tends to move anticlockwise around the pivot 84 from the position illustrated in Fig. 7 into the posi tion illustrated in Fig. 8. Simultaneously the angle lever 83 pulls the draw-bar 86 in the direc tion of arrow 103. The draw-bar 86, Figs. 5 to 8 and 10, therefore tends to move the slide 89 and through same also the slide 100 in the same direction towards the right. During this sliding movement of the slide 100 the incline of the lug 113 cooperates with the incline 114 of the pawl 115 and through the driving connection 119, 111 moves the lever 111 clockwise around the pivot screw 120. Simultaneously the lever 111 moves the member 123 downwards and the latter owing to the screw connection 124, moves the lever 125 clockwise around the shaft 28a against the spring 126. Its lower edge 143 also engages the pin 144 of the member 145, Figs. 10 and 12, whereby the member 145 is moved down wards and consequently the lever 141 is moved clockwise around the pivot screw 149, Fig. 12, against the spring 154.
