Abstract
A device to facilitate the changing of disc-shaped type carriers in typewriters or printers includes a lever operated device to push against the type disc and to press it off its shaft. A basket is provided to catch the type wheel after its disengagement from the shaft to prevent it from falling into the interior of the machine.
