Abstract
270,403. Jolly, R. W., and Meters, Ltd. Feb. 6. 1926. Electricity, supplying by meter; price-charging mechanism; coin action, thrust.-In a prepayment electricity meter the coin is inserted through a slot 3 in a price-change disc 2, which may be rotated to vary the angular position of the slot 3. The disc is held in adjusted position by a stop on the frame engaging peripheral teeth on the disc and by a covering ring 5 secured by suitable bolts. The coin enters a. pocket 12 mounted on a disc 6 behind the disc 2 and moves a lever 18, against the action of a spring 24, so that a tooth 21 thereon engages a toothed quantity wheel 22, which is thereby rotated with the coin pocket. The pivoted point of the lever 18 is formed by a projection 19 which slides between two pins 20, 20<1>. The end of the lever in contact with the coin has a projection 26 so that, when the coin is inserted, the lever is first rocked about the pin 20 and then caused to slide radially before the tooth 21 can engage the wheel 22. When the coin is inserted a sufficient amount, the lever springs back and draw the coin completely into the pocket by an inclined edge 27. Coin-discharging mechanism.-The coin is retained in the pocket by an L-shaped piece 14 secured to the pocket by a flat spring 15. When the pocket comes against a stop 17, a portion 16 thereof moves the catch 14 and allows the coin to be ejected by the spring 24.
