Abstract

The arrangement, according to the invention, includes a positioning drive with which a record chart bundle is drivable in a recording movement direction when it is received on a centering pin which can be raised and lowered, an adjustable stop which rotates at the recording speed and compensates for an angular difference between the recording angle per record chart and a complete revolution of this record chart, a catch arm, which is formed on at the stop, cooperating in turn with a radial edge of a sector-shaped cut-out portion of the uppermost record chart in the bundle during the positioning, the sector shape being conventional in record chart bundles, and driving means which are active when a record chart bundle is positioned and which couple the record chart bundle with the recording drive, the driving means being rotatably supported at a web which is movable vertically at the centering pin.
