Setup for continuously running (so-called endless) paper of 130 mm. height

(Einrichtung für fortlaufendes (sogen. endloses) Papier von 130 mm. Höhe)
Description: This is an attachment to a kymograph which allows a continuous paper strip to run around the drum of the kymograph. The recording time was thus no longer to limited to a few turns of the kymograph drum, but data could be recorded for periods of several hours. This device is specifically designed for ink- writing, since the "endless" paper had to be wound on a roll and could not be coated with lamp black. (Expanded caption Copyright 1998, Edward J. Haupt)
