The pawl will then be lifted as manytimes in a revolution as there are ratchet-teeth on thefront disc. B5. Film moved by intermittent grip of two rollers. Two early methods of obtaining an intermittentmotion from continually rotating rollers were suggestedby Evans in 1890. One suggestion was that the rollers,might be allowed to roll along the film for a time, thusleaving it stationary, and then be drawn back as shownin Fig. 70. Or the two rollers might periodically beheld apart and only permitted to grip the film for a. Fig. 131. APPARATUS. 123
