Apparatus for permitting viewing of a large number of entries printed on a sheet leaving a calculating machine

An apparatus for permitting viewing of a large number of entries printed on a sheet leaving a calculating machine, comprising:

• an elongate bar having a longitudinal track and positionable on an upper surface of the calculating machine;
• a support plate having a lower end fittable in said track, said track having means for supporting said support plate fitted in said track at an angle of between 35 and 70 degrees with respect to a horizontal plane, said track having a length greater than a width of said support plate so that a position of said support plate along said track may be adjusted, said support plate further includes means for laterally guiding longitudinal edges of a sheet supported therein;
• and
• an elongate fastening means connected to said elongate bar and extending transverse to a length of said elongate bar for securing said elongate bar to the calculating machine, said fastening means including means for attachment to the upper surface of the calculating machine, whereby said support plate is supported by the attachment of the fastening means to said calculating machine at a position spaced from said elongate bar in the direction transverse to the length of said elongate bar,
• whereby said elongate bar may be secured to the calculating machine by said fastening means at a position wherein a sheet leaving the calculating machine may be supported and support by the guide plate fitted in said elongate bar.
