this application is intended to cover various modifications ofv the original idea, and a more practical form of construct-ing the machine, and the combination of the cash-de` livery machine with a' machine adapted to indicate and register the amount of the sale.
- In the drawings, I have shown one tube 9o 'forholding silver dollars, and one each for n halves and quartersfand two tubes for dimes and two for 'onecent pieces, and one for ve-cent pieces'.` .,'-Ea ch tube has a coinejecting lever acting directly upon the coins within it, and between each pair of coin tubes -there isa lever adapted to eject a v coin from both tubes, but tubes for 'gold coins and also more tubes for silver coins.A f
may be added, and by so doing, it is evident I that'y the machinemay bemade to deliver any desired change lby the actionv of que discharge lever.
The machine' 1s formed .wrthin'a box or in s betweenthe top and bottom lates, and l -it 1s adapted to receive and holdtu s which may be filled with coins outside the machine.v The coinsare held in these tubes by springlv clips Awhich project within'the tube, and are .held there by springs..` When coin tubes j are inserted in the machine,.these clips re revolved outside the coin tube and allow t e coins to fall to the coin-discharging mechanism which consists of a seat adapted to Asupport the coins and having a tilting lever pivoted Within it, which is kept in a horizontal position level with the top of the coin seat by the weight of ,one coin upon it, and adapted to revolve when the last coin is discharged so as to engage the end of the coin ejector and preventv its motion. 'The coln ejector is in the -form of a cylinder if adapted to-slide within a retaining tube and connected by links and vleversto l charge the larger coins I I slots formed "n machine.
com from two coin tubes having the end for engaging the coin beveled so as to strike'upon the central part of the edge ofthe coin. The coin support is cut away opposite the coin'ejector so as to allow the coin resting upon it to be thrown` out b v the coin ejector. It is adapted by meansof screws to be adjusted to coins of varying thickness.
When the coin ejector moves, .the coin strikes upon theedge of a lever vwhich is a lifting' rod. provided with means to lift indicator tablets into view, these tablets having upon them gures to show the values of the coins discharged. These parts while being positively moved by the coin, which acts as 'a solid plunger, serve to operate meters for recording the coins, and lookin preventing the discharge of coms afterall the indicator tablets have been lifted into view. v
The coin ejectors are moved by levers which operate upon friction roller'scarried within the ejector tubes. Each coinfejector has an arm extending outside the' ejector tube in the direction of each adjoining tube. Friction'rollers are carried by these arms anda lever is placed between the' ejector tubes adapted to bear upon each adjacent pair of friction rollers, and thus tov eject a at once. The coin-ejector' levers are `intended to ave the same 'ang11lar`.motion. To dislcutaway a certain amount of the coin t'tq allow the coin to fall without movingstlie-coin-the'full diameter of the coin. 'The smallest coins will be moved more than their" full diamete the coins will be moved` some distance bel. yond the edge of the coin `seat-and then discharged by the action of a lunger which is actuated by the blow of a ppet lever pivoted to the coin-actuated lever.
The coin-ejecting levers operatey through the vertical casing of thee The lower'end ofea-ch lever is in the form of a. hook, and ,hasfupon it ajiigure or figures to indicate the value of the coin. discharged .by the lever." the levers discharging two lower than one coin.A
those of the levers discharging .are separately exposed to view placed below kthe tube.
levers -for 'lever down and The hooks upon 1 coinsare placed .and thusshow at once The action of each coin-discharging lever rings a bell and lifts a gravity locking lever for a money drawer at the bottom of the machine, allowing a suitable spring to open the' drawer whenever a lever is'pulled. In addition to the cash levers, l provide one to open the money drawer and lift a n0-sale indicator card. This no-sale lever has a hook atits upper end adapted to lock the cover of the machine and it operates a lever which unlocks a spring catch to prevent the drawer for holding extra coin tubes being opened.
The coins discharged from the coin tubes fall down coin chutes separated from each other other transparent material, so that the coins for ready counting. At the end of this chute they are stopped by a sliding gate. lifted up the coins fall through an opening in the 'gate into a glass chate or tube-im closing the openings of all the separate coin chutes, and havlng in its lowe` end an Opening large enough to allow the coins. to vbe freely delivered. into the palm of a When the tube'which the gate is lifted up so that the into it, apin upon the back of the above va pivoted catch on the end of a lever, and when the gate falls, the pin moves .the

My cash delivery machine maybe used' alone or in combination with anyone of the common cash-registering machines now. so generally used. Theform shoWn,-for the cashlregistering machine in 1 is that of the machine known as the National, but the design of the machine is notimportant andv is not claimed, and it V sary to have the machine at the side of the cash-delivery machine, as it may'beplaced. above o'r below it, or at any desireddistance.
I-f desired, the .cashring mechanjsm of the ordinary cash register may be inclosed in the Vsaine case with the cash-de livery mechanism of my machine. j
Dangerjof operating the wrong machine is lessened by having the cash-register operisnot neces., r

the origin of any discrepancy between the cashin .the
moneyY drawer andthat which shouldbe there according to the registers of the cash-receiving and cash-.delivering machines.
I have shown a. simple meter for each coinholding tube, but. it. is evident that in addition there may be a meter to give the total of the amounts registered on the di'erentA meters. i
The front and baclrcasings of the machine contain glass plates, and the front and back portions of the coin tubes andr the guide tubes about theni may be cutaway so that the coins within may be seen by the cashier and extra coin tubes be filled to substitutey lfor displaying the indicator cards. Thebox contains a sliding drawer 5 Jfor holding coin` tubes before they zirefplaced in VpositionA- in theupper partv of the niachine. Projecting from the central lower part of the front ot' the casing are upright side pieces 6 which support between them the glass plates 7 and 84 in which the Vcoins are displayed after they have 'been discharged from the coin tubes. The pieces G have grooves 8 cut in them to receivefthe sliding gate 9.l This gate is normally against the lower ends of the discharge chutes, preventing the coins from leaving the chutes, Abut it has a horizontal slot- 1() which, when the gate 9 is lifted up, cornes opposite the openings of the coin chutes and allows the coins to fall through the gate. Upon the face of the gate is secured a glass chute l1 extending the entire width of all the chutes kand baving in its lower surface a circular opening somewhat larger than the largest coin the machine is intended to deliver.
The drawings show a machine with one tube 1Q fitted to receive silver dollars, one tube 13 'foi-silver half dollars, one tube 14 for silver quarter dollars, two tubes 15 16 for silver ten-cent pieces, one tube 17 for vecent pieces. and two tubes 18 and 19 for one-cent coins. The tubes are split at theiry lower ends and bent outwardly to form flanges 2O between which the coin clips 2t are pivoted.,'These clips are held by the springs 22 with their lower ends projecting within the coin tube, to hold the coins. Vhen the coin tubes are pressed into the bottoms of their seats, the upper out Wardly-projecting ends of the clips 21, strike upon the edge of the guide tube Z3 and revolve the clips outsideA the coin tube, so
.tha they drop the coins upon the coin seatI 24 here the lowest coin is in line with the coin-ejector 25. The coin supports 24 tit the holes 26 sunk in the top of the horizontal section Q7 which connects the two upright side'plates of the casing and is screwed to them. Each coin vsupport 24 is fitted with a centrall thumb-screw'QS for holding it within its seat, and has in its central upper surface a slot 29 adapted to contain the tilting block 30 which is so balanced that the weight oi? a single coin upon it will cause it to assume a horizontal position and bring the coin in line with the coin-ejector 25, but when the last coin has been. discharged from any tube, the tilting block will rise and prevent motion of the coin-ejector until the block has been depressed by anew supply of coins. Below'the tilting block is va 'thumb- 80 screw 31 adapted to regulate the position of the block at one end,`and the thumb-4 screw 32 is for the purpose of adjustment at the opposite side Vso that if it. is desired4 to use coins whichy are worn quite thin, they may be placed all together in `one tube and the coinseat randblockadjustedto the unusual diniension. In practicethin coins will generally be exchanged for those of the. regulation thickness,-but provision ismade 90 for -those who m'ay desire to use them.A
Upon the top of the piece 27 and resting uponv the coin tables 24r isV aplate 33m which holes are cut to receive the ends ot' the coin tubes, and lsmaller concentric holes continuing the coin tubes to the coin seats.
About eachL coin tube seat in the plate 33 is a guide tube 34 firmly secured in the plate 33 and in the upper casing. 1. This tube 34 is split on opposite sides fromV the top to nearly the bottom, and the two parts bent inward to forni guiding flanges between which the clips Q1 may pass and the lower end of the slots 35 thus formed serves as a stop 93 to revolve the coin clips when the 105 coin tube reaches its seat upon the plate 33. Slots may be cut in these guide tubes from near the top to near the bottom, and parallel slots in the same vertical plane may be cut t in the coin tubes on opposite sides so that the coins may be exposed to the view .of' the cashier and the coin tubes be refilled withouttaking them from the machine. These slots are notshown in the drawings, but they do show this tube 34 cut away at its lower part V115 to allow the tappet lever and plunger to be inserted over the centerof the coin. Upon the under side of the hinged cover i a flat spring 36 is arranged to bear upon the top of each coin tube to keep it at the v bottoni of its seat. y
The coin e'iector 25 is beveled at its outer edge so' as to lstrike upon the central part of the edge of the coin, and the edge of the tilting block 30 is grooved to fit the edge ofthe 125 ejector so'as to surelyprevent motion 'of the coin ejectorwhen no coins are upon the coin seat. The central part of the block 30` isgrooved and the under side of the ejector 25 A is fitted to slide in this groove. The ejector 13o. f,
blade is also guided b having its top surface against .the 'under side of the plate 332 The section of the outer end of .the ejector is shown in Fig.l 21, and ito crates through a hole of similar section in t e piece 27. The
ejector is placed withiny a tube 37 which isscrewedv within the iece 27 and is larger than the ejector so t at a spiral spring 38 may be loosely placed -uponthe ejector and act. to withdraw the ejector after it has thrown out a coin. This sprin bears u on the head 39 .of-the ejector whic isfitted) to slide looselyi within the tube-and slotted to hold the .friction roller '40.' The -tube 37 is slotted at topjand bottom and ide pieces 41 project Vfromthe head 39 an vfit the slot loosely to keep 'the ejector from turning in the tube. From the lower guide piece 41 arms 42 project on each'side, carrying ears 43 between which friction rollers 44 are secured. 4The coin-ejectinglevers 45 are ada ted to move freely lthe slots cut in the tu s 37 and are .pivoted upon the `rod 46 which passes .through the upright supports 47 which extendefro'm the .plate 48. The late 48 is secured tothe vertical casings o the machine and serves to cover the cash drawer 3. A slot .is out in the. plate to allow the catch 1 23 secured to the crate, and also 'two holesto `The 'action of any leverv which Cash drawer to oprmit the lockL mg arms 51' to enter thev drawer.

Between each adjacentpair of tubes 37 a lever 45' similar to 45 is placed, and 4from its upper end a ange`50 extends .on both sides far enough to strike upon the friction .rollers 44 so that when any lever 45 is withdrawn, a coin will be discharged from each coin tube .adz'acent to the lever.

When any lever 45 is drawn out it seuils the coin ejectorv 25 against the coin 59 which` -rests uponthe` coin seat 24 and Amovesjit ,along until it bears upon the lever 60 which is pivotally suspended from the top casing in line with the center of the coin, and the coin acts as a rod to positively move this lever 60 andthe parts -connected therewith. Av link v61 connects the lev'er 60 with a rightangled lever 62, andas the lever 60 is moved forward by the coin, it lifts the link 63 which -is attached to the outer end of the leverl 62. The lower end o f the lever '60' moves n a' slot cut through ,thelate 33. On.
upright an es 64 are each side of this slot placed cast to the plate or secured y screws as preferred, and the cranks 62 are pivotally Secured between these flanges by the rod 65' which runs through all the flanges and isses. cured in position by suitable screws or pins; '-,il The :link 63 is pivoted -to the lower en offri a vertical rod 66 which is adapted to lide freely in an openin' cut forv it in the plate 67. The plate67 is eld by screws Aupon the top of the flange 68 which projects internally from .the casing 1.. The plate also has holes to receive the indicator rods 70 71.
Each lever 45 discharges'a com from one, coin'tube and it is evident that each lever 45. will discharge one coin from each of the two tubes between .which it is placed. Ther-e is only one liftin lever 62 and rod 66, while two indicator tilets 6 9 l in order to shov4 the by the machine .by the action of all the lei/ ers 45 and 45. These indicator tablets 69 are made of two thicknesses of metal fastened.
one on each side ofthe tablet rods 70 71, and each of the indicatortablets above-the rods shas .a slot in it adapted to allow the rod 66 to move freely vertically within the incl i am tablet. The indicator tablets are sup; ported inthe slot 72:formed in the top casand lare separated from each other by wires cured to theV top cas4 1. n
Lheindor rnd; 70 and-71 are bent plate 58 land thrown are required` for Y orsmall frictionrollers placed between 'each pair of tablets'antigas-- l vided with spring catches 74' adapted to 'j The rods 77 are pivotedbelow to the outer ends of a horizontal bar 78 which connects two levers 78 supported pivotally upon the rod 80. The pivot 8O passes through four ears 80. kThe two outer ears lit against the levers extending from the bar 78, and between the two inner ones a lever 81 is held. The outer end of the lever 81 has a'tripping catch 82 upon it, and its inner end engages with the under side of the rod 78. Below the two arms 78 are supports 7 9`rising from the plate 1oelow to keep the arms 7 8 in such a position that the support 75 will be normally in position to engage the catches upon the indicator rods.
.Projecting'from the back of the sliding gate 9 is a pin 82 which projects far enough to engage wii the catch 82. Then the gate is lifted up, the catch 82 revolves and falls over the lever 81, but when the gate is dropped, the catch holds thepin 82 and thus depresses ,the lever. and this lifts the bar 78 and revolves the indicator support so that the indicator tablets fall from sight.
From the rod 78 a curved arm 78 extends. A friction roller 122 is pivoted at the end of this arm, and a tripping catch. 121 is pivoted to a support 123 which is fastened tothe cash drawer. Then the cash drawer is opened, the catch 121 revolves and passes under Athe roller without lifting it, but when the drawer is closed, the catch lifts the roller and thus drops the indicator. tablets. This device operates; when the no-sale lever is used. It is evident that the roller might be placed upon the drawer and the catch upon the arm 78', and the result be the same.
The rod 66 attached to the bell-crank' it the link 66 which has a pin at its lower end. .By gravity this pin tends to assume a. position under the notch cut in the lower end of the rod and a spring 54 is also attached yto the link and to the rod 66 to insurethe return of the link to its position under; the rod 70. 'When the rod 66 1s lifted and it remains supported b and the stop projecting over the rod 71 to assume a position with the notch in its lower end just over the pin in the lifting link 66. When the rod 70 1s retained in its elevated position, the -catch 71 at once comesin line with the lifting pin, and the next upward motion of the lifting rod 66 elevates the indicator rod 71, and when the catch 71 strikes the lower end ofthe rod 70, the spring holding the link 66allows it to revolve with the catch 71( until the rod 7'1 is fully elevated. Various modifications of this-idea may be employed without departing from the spirit of my invention. 4
The bottom of the coin chute is formed by the plate 27 which descends at an angle in front of the coin seats24. suiciently to cause the coins to slide down it. Partitions 83 give separate chutes for each coin tube. The lower edge ofthe plate 27 is tted to hold the upper edge of a plate of glass 84. The upper covering of the chutes is formed of a. plate-of glass 7 and these two plates, also the metal plate 27, are formed as shown in the section Fig.l 13, so as to allow only one coin to -pass in each compartment. At the top the space widens to form a chamber in which the coin may freely drop. The front of this chamber is covered with the plate of glass 85. Plates 7 and 85 are held between the side casings by retaining strips screwed to the casings, and the lower edge of 84 is protected and held. by the horizontal brace 86 which 'is screwed to the side plates 6, which support the coin `chute and delivery tube. If desired, the lower ed e of plate 7 may be protected by a metal and.
Grooves 8 contain the sliding gate 9 which may be fitted with friction rollers. The glass delivery tube 11 is formed with a flange 87 and over this flange the plate 88 is screwed. A flange may be formed on each side ofthe under edge of the tube 11, and this may also be firmly screwed to the gate 9.
A balance weight 89 is suspended by la cord attached to the back of the gate 9. The cord runs over pulleys 90 and 91. This weight balances all the weight of the gate and delivery tube which is not required to operate the indicator support and 'drop the indicator tablets after the coins have been discharged.
The coins are securely held between the coin seat 24 and the under side of the coin tube or th'c plate sup rting the coin tube, and it is impossible or a coin to fall into the chute until it has moved beyond the coinV l seat. It is desirable to move it beyond this seat n. little distance. The pressure of the levers and the weightof the movin parts will ordinarily be suicient to hold t e coin, but to insure the coins being carried kthe proper distance, a pivoted support 92 is placed in a slot in the lower end of the lever 60. The support 92 Ais adapted by a spring Aht't the plunger.
t j, fijcct a iittlc distance below the under edgic t' the coni 59. A cross piece 98 su'pported between the flanges- 6.4 serves to ref vol-ve the support 9i? so that the coin is free to fall.
jIt will be readily seen that the coin support 92.1night be formed with `an upper spring-actuated clip adapted 'to positively hold the coin between the upper and lower clips until the two are separated by the ac tion of the stop 98, and in Sonie cases this construction maybe desirable.' It is not shown here as I intend to claim the principle of a coin-holding and coin-moving lever broadly. y v
To insure the dropping of the coin after it has lifted the indicator cards, I pivot a ta- ppet lever 9,4 to the lever 60. This tappet vlever has two arms at right angles to each 93 'to hold the lever with its horizontal arm a little distance above the top of a plunger 95 which is adapted to slide in two holes, one in the plate 33,- and the other in a supporting plate 96 which .is held at a little distance above the plate 33. 'l'lie plunger has a collar 97 upon it with a Ispiral spring below the collar adapted to The tappet lever 94 is adapted to strike upon the plunger 95 when its vertical arm is stopped by the Horizontal ero -s-pieee 98. The lcoin support 92 vand its lower portion ot' the stop 98 are arranged io .-iet liet'ore the tappet lever operates the plunger 95. j"

The coin tube drawer 5 is shownV entering one .side of the machine and extending-'to the other side. By aking out this drawer, a hand may be inserted to adjust the; screws holding the coin seats. The drawer is cut in the pieces 48 49 which extend from one'side casing to theother. This drawer may be fastened by a bolt which projects through the front Ycasing of the machine and has the end formed spring catch 111 whichV is pivoted 'to`eais projecting from the casing oitle machine',- and is adapted to engage a catch 119v secured to the back of the drawer. 'llie'spring catch 111 is operated by a lever'113 which is pivoted to the side casing and has its upper end two pins 114 which project from' a horizontal link 115-whicli is attached to the top of ,the lever 116 for operating -the no-sale indicator card. This 11o-sale lever is similar to the coin-operating levers, and n bell 117 is provided for it. A hook at its upper end serves to lock the hinged cover ot' theinachiue by engaging with a lip projecting internally from this cover. The link 115 is pivoted to the bell-crank lever 118, and the outer end of this l-ever is adapted'to bear upon the lower end of the rod 119 which supports the .".no-sale" indicator tablet.
