can anyone answer me how is typewriter a mechanism?
Get familiar with all the elements of the typewriter's mechanism. Make notes when disassembling the machine so you can reassemble it efficiently. Try to locate a user's manual for your particular model.Prevent dirt and debris from falling into the typewriter's mechanism. Try not to eat over your typewriter and handle the machine with clean hands.Wipe down the keys and the housing with a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol. Clean the keys to remove any oils and dirt left behind by your fingertips.Clean inside the typewriter occasionally, depending on how frequently you use it. Lift the cover and clean the platen and paper scale. Use a can of compressed air with a long nozzle attachment to dislodge debris.Remove the ribbon from the typewriter and replace it as needed. Use a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol to wipe off the card holder, feed rollers and deflector. Move the carrier back and forth to access the typewriter's components.Use rubbing alcohol to clean the locking tab. Place a small amount of petroleum jelly inside the element to prevent sticking. Use a small toothbrush or a toothpick to clean any built-up ink or debris from each key. Store the typewriter in a well-ventilated area with very low humidity or a dehumidifier to keep the mechanisms rust-free. Keep the machine in its case or drape a clean cloth over it to reduce dust accumulation on the keys and mechanisms.
Archemedis is the proponent of 'mechanics' where the story goes he lifted enemy ships using pulleys and levers using human energy. A 'mechanism' is a device where forces are transfered and used for useful work which cannot be done by human efforts directly or easily. Newtonian mechnics teaches us the way the movements of planets and stars work.
So Typewriter is something similar, where a small force the finger is actualy converted into a haevy force to create impressions on a paper when it is ht by a bob with number or alpahabets worked through an inked ribbon. It is worked on the same principle on which Archmedis lifted up enemy ships and saved Greece.
