Abstract
A vibrating receiver for punch tape produced by Teletype or other high speed printer. The device is secured to resilient mounts on a base. A receiving magazine is vibrated by an electrically driven eccentric secured to an arm oscillating the magazine on the resilient mounts. As an alternate structure a rotating off-center weight tuned to the proper harmonic secured to the oscillating floor of the magazine might be used to impart vibrating motion.
