PATENT OFFICE.

The invention consists in an apparatus which is intended to uniformly produce a number of folded newspapers and hand them over individually against the insertion of a certain coin.

In the accompanying drawing Fig. 1 illustrates a vertical section through the apparatus. Fig. 2 is a Grundrifs with section along X-Y of Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a bottom view of FIG. 1. FIG. 4 shows the operation of of the coin. ::

In the box A , on a cut-out base B, there is a sheet metal jacket A ¹ designed to match the format of the folded newspapers , in which the newspapers are placed on top of one another on the slide C which is movable above the base B.

The slide C is connected by means of corresponding connecting pieces D to a cross piece E , which is provided with a structure E ¹ . A guide rod F is inserted through the latter, the ends of which are attached to the lower surface of the base B , and to the structure E ¹ a rod G is attached which emerges from the box A and carries a handle G ^1. The crosspiece E is also guided by means of a fixed bolt b. A spring J attached to the bottom B in h leans with its free end against a screw c of the slide C in order to always bring the latter back into its pushed-in position.

Corresponding projections c ² , FIG. 2, are attached to the slide C , which cause the lowest of the newspapers contained in the apparatus to be taken away when the slide C is pulled out by ^{means of the handle G 1.}

A guide K guides the coin inserted into the apparatus into a slot e, Fig. 4, of the crosspiece E, and the joint L , when it has the predetermined diameter, remains hanging between the end of that slot and the fixed rod e ¹ (Fig . 4), namely below the bottom B, so that when the slide C is advanced, the coin L is taken along, sliding along the rod e ^1.

But that part of the bottom B under which this forward sliding of the coin takes place is provided with an opening closed by a small trap door M. The trapdoor M is rotatable about a joint m attached to the floor B and has three projections m ¹ , ot ² and ot ³ on its lower surface, of which m ¹ is semicircular to the front and to the rear by a vertical surface, while ot ² and m ³ are semicircular towards the rear and closed towards the front by a vertical surface.

When the trap door M is folded down, the projection m ¹ is in the way of a nose e ² attached to the crosspiece E , so that the slide C cannot be pulled out when the trap door M is folded down.

The projections m ² and m ³ are, when the trap door M is folded down, in the way of the coin L advancing with the cross piece E , as described above, but are shaped in such a way that the coin, with the trap door M raised, is below same

can pass if the coin moves in the direction of the arrow ι (forward) will, on the other hand, collide with the same when the coin moves in the direction of arrow 2 (backwards) goes.

Now the position of the projections to ¹ , πι ² and to ³ against each other on the trap door M is such that the nose e ^{2 of} the cross piece E passes under the projection m ¹ when the trap door is pushed by the coin on the projection m ' ² has been lifted. As soon as the coin has passed m ² , the door M falls down again, but the nose e ² has then already passed m ¹ , so that nothing prevents the slide from advancing further; on the other hand, it can no longer go back because the coin hits ^{against the vertical surface of the projection m 2.} If the slide is pulled out further, the coin then lifts the trap door M again when it passes under the projection to ² , which also prevents the slide from moving back into the apparatus. The purpose of this is to prevent the slide from going back into the apparatus before the newspaper has been pushed out enough to be easily grasped.

Then you pull the slide a little further out, thus enters the coin to the end of the fixed rod e \ which it supported, and falls into the serving as Checkout lower part of the apparatus. Once the coin slot s of the crosspiece E left, nothing prevents more retraction of the slider, since the projection is m ^l shaped to the nose e ~ DAF under elevation of the trap-door M under the same pass, when the cross-piece in the sense of Arrow 2 goes back.

The slot located on the lower part of the front wall of the apparatus, through which the slide C and the lower newspaper lying on it are to emerge, is through a flap which can be rotated about an axis α. ² , Fig. 2, which is usually held up by means of a spring a ^2. A two-armed lever P rotatable about ρ includes with its front hook p ^l the pin a ^l attached to the axis α and prevents the rotation of that axis, ie the flap A- from folding down.

The inner end of the lever P engages in a cutout c ³ of the slider C, and is formed so, that when the slide is pulled out, that is, if a coin has been inserted, the hook p \ by Anstofs to the coin occasioned, the pin a ^{l is} released so that the slide C easily pushes down the flap ^ ² to deliver the newspaper. But as soon as the slide C has returned to its inner rest position, the hook p ¹ locks the flap A ' ² again, so that it cannot be lowered.

R, Fig. 3, is a pin which is pushed by a spring r into the money slot as soon as the slider C BEZW. whose crosspiece E is advanced and, when the apparatus is not working, is pushed back through the crosspiece, as can be seen in FIG. This prevents a coin, which could be thrown into the apparatus while the slide is pulled out, from falling ineffectively into the cash register. . ·

Finally, the .Apparat is, as usual, provided with a cash lock device 5, which by a protrusion attached to the weight compressing the newspapers can be actuated.

Claims (1)

Patent claim: A newspaper self-seller, in which, the coin L held in the slot of the sales slide CE and by the fixed rod e by means of adhesive to the projection m ^{2 of} the flap M attached to the solid base B , thereby lifting the projection in this flap out of the Ways the nose e ' ^{2 of} the slider excavates so that it can be pulled out, after which the flap Ä ² blocking the dispensing slot is opened by the coin on the hook p ^{l of} the lever P , while the projections m ² and to ^{3 open} Return of the slide before a newspaper is dispensed is prevented. 1 sheet of drawings.
