DEFINITION

Classification: 234/102

(under subclass 94) Device wherein the tool- conditioning mechanisms comprise a plurality of independent elements each movable, in response to an input-impulse*, from an ineffective position to an effective position in which it initiates the selection of a plurality of tool pairs for actuation by other means.

(1) Note. A coded selector member differs from a coded interposer in that (1) it does not engage the selected tools, and (2) it has only one effective position (as distinguished from the differentially- positioned interposer of subclass 98). See Fig. 20 (under subclass 105) for a specific example of a coded selector member.
