Be it. known that I, BENJAMINjF. M nnnt, v a citizen of the United States, residing vat Dixon, county of Lee, and State oflllinois, have invented certain new and useful Im#v p'rovements in Protectin Devices for Bankication.
My invention relates to protecting. devices and more particularly to a deviceio this to serve as .a protection for the bank cashier.' The object of my invention is the 'provi'- which willbe so designed and adjusted as to bev adapted for quick l actuation by' the cashier or. other person occupying. the cashcashier and the valuables in his charge and.' at the same time entrapthe Would-be bulf'- of durable and' 'economical construction, and -quick-mtmg and eiiiclent in operation.
Other objects will appear hereinafter. With these objects in ,view my invention consists a protecting device characterized as -above mentioned and m certain detailsl particularly pointed Lout` in the appended' claims'.4` e

Thepartitionll is of any bullet-proof construction andl is provided with the cashiers window open-l mgs 4,: 5 indicating the cashiers counter wh1c h 1s arran ed at theinner side of the partition 1. ounted upon' `the inner side of the' partition 1 lfor closure ofthe window openlngs 4, .the same being vertically s 'lidable in verticallydisposed gude channels 6 provided adjace'ntthe longitudinal edges offsaid windows are metallic plates or closures 7 adapted, by their own gravity, to normal remain in. lowered or closing position'. vounted adjacent one of the edges of each of the closures 7 is a dog 8 slidably mounted in a stationary housing 9. The` dogs 8 p roject through the adjacent channels oft e closures 7 and are adapted to en;

Compression springs 13 arranged under the reejends of the levers 13 normally hold the .same'in elevated or inoperative position. The arrangement 1s -such that upon depreion of the levers 1 3,

Arranged at the lower edge of `[the dows 4 coplanar with'` the counter, the. i' A same being rockingly mounted; in bear"` .15 provided upon t ti 11 V1, is a shaft 16.' Carried by said shaft, -t he rearward edge thereof being rigidly se,- 'cured thereto, is a normally horizontally dis e inner side of the partimetalhc counter-forming member 17.
-ranged adjacent the upper edge of said en- Access to theca ge 26 is gained through the entrance 28 in the outer end wall thereof.

- Having itsv respective en s secured to the free end of thedogv34 and the lever 36, the same intermediate said dog and lever passing over"pulleys"37, isl a .flexible cord 3 8.
This arrangement is such that by depressing lever 36 the free end of the dog 34 will be raised out of engagement with the stop 35,
' thereb vellectingthe release ofthe door-29 and w ich, upon being released, will be slid to closing position by reason of the weight 32. l Sprin locks 39 are provided along thev edge 40 o the entrance, said locks being adapted, when'the door is slid to closin position, to engage bolts 42 projectin om, the adjacent edge of thev door, .toje ject the locking of the latter in closedpositionl.
' llVithy an arrangement as' describedyitvwill be. seen that aperson desiring to' transact businessor "to "interview the cashier must r'st'ga'rer the cage 26. This being so,
' shoillv any person make a hostile. move, the
cashier-hwy, by a quickfoot movement, der
counter, cause the erection of va double shield wish to be limited thereto as there might be various changes made in the ldetails of construction and the arrangement of parts described withoutdeparting from the spirit of the invention.' And although I have designed my device withspecial reference for usein-conjunction' with. cashiers windows it maybe used in any lother location to which it is applicable.
Having described my ainvention what I I l vclaim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patent -is v1. In a device o f the class described, the
combination with'a Abank cashiers window,
of a hin ed shelf arranged outside said win-l dow an adapted to swing upwardly an'd close the same; and 'means located on the inner side of said window arranged to swing said shelf upwardly, substantially as' 'described.
2. In'a device of the class described, the
combination with a bank cashiers window,
of ahinged shelf arranged outside saidwindow and adapted to swing upwardly and close the same; a pinion for swinging said shelf; a second pinion meshing with said Iirstmentioned pinion; and means located on the inner side of said window for rotat- 'ing said last named pinion .to elevate said shelf, substantially as described. v
3. In a device of the class described, the combination with a bank cashiers window, of a hinged shelf arranged outside said window and adapted to swing upwardly and close the same; a pinion for swinging said shelf; a second lnion' meshing with said first mentioned pinion; an arm connected to rotate said last named pinion; a foot lever located below said window on its inner side;
'and a cord oonnectingsaid foot leverA with said arm for elevating said shelf, substantiallyas described.
