Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0196581A2] The invention relates to a pulse counter in the form of an electromechanical counter with a vibrating-coil drive and a switching armature for stepping on the digit drums which can be triggered by electric pulses. In this arrangement, it is intended to create a particularly space-saving counter which can be produced efficiently and inexpensively as a compact assembly. Prefabricable assemblies should be usable which form functional units and can be inserted complete into a rack provided with receptacles. For this purpose, a pulse counter is used, the drive of which for the switching armature in the form of a switching rocker is effected from a coil rocker which carries on both sides in a symmetrical arrangement with respect to the pivoting axis one coil each at a distance corresponding to the pivoting travel from one stationary permanent magnet each, and polarity and direction of winding of the coils are designed in such a manner that when current is applied, one coil is in each case attracted and the other coil is repelled. <IMAGE>
