Description

IsAAc HYDE, oF OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA.
VIMPRoVisavnnav'r 1N ALARM `'Herm'r-Nneirms 4ron coUPoN-TICKBTS.
Specification formmg partof Letters Patent No.10'5,459, dated July/19, 1870.
To all 'whom it may concern Be it known Vthat LIsAAc HYDE, of Oakland, county of' Alameda, State otUalifornia, have inveutedan Improved Alarm Ticket Nippers for Coupon-Tickets; and I do hereby i. decla-re the following description and accompanyi1ig"dra\vings are suliicient to enable any person skilledin the art or science to which it most nearly appertains to make and use my said invention or improvements Without fur` ther invention or experiment.
The objectot my invention is toprovide an improved nipper for coupon-tickets, such as are employed on street-railways, and in which a sort of cutting-jaw or knif'e is so attached to a receiving-box that by pressing the handles `together a coupon can `be detached and left within the box:
The nature 0r essence of ni y invention consists in providing` a peculiar device for causing a signaler alarm bell attached to thenippers to be struck and sounded whenever a coupon is `detached from a ticket,"so as to advertise the fact to all the passengers, and thus to have euver on the part of theconductor.
Referring to the accompanying drawings for a more complete explanation ot' my invention i Figure l is a side view. Figj2 is a top view, showing the knil'eand its appendages.
Fig. 3 is a section showing inside. A A are the handles et a pair of ordinary nippers, having a cutting-blade, a, which, on
pressing'the handles together, moves into a slot, b, in the box B, and severs a coupon from a ticket, which is introduced through a slot at c, so as to stand at right angles with the' cutting-blade. Within the bell is a hammer, E which is supported by an arm, F. This arm is fastened to a rotating shaft, d, which turns in boxes on the side of the box B. Two small fingers, e e, project from the side of the shalt d through an .opening and extend to a point near the cutting blade a. A plate, f, is tastened to one side ot' the blade, and from its lower end, near the edge.V of the blade, fingers 'it' i project, so as to extend between and alternate with the fingers e, or so that when the handles are closed Without anything bein g in'- troduced the fingers will simply pass by the fingers e," and no stroke of the bell be heard; but when a ticket is-introduced so as to be cnt, it forms a bridge, as it were, and the fingers t press the severed coupon against the fingers e.
`This rotates the shaft d, and, through thearin F, draws the hammer E back. The lnoment the coupon passes into rthe box the lingers e are released, and a spring, n, forces the hammer to strike the bell. rIhe alarm may be constructed and attached in various other ways, but I havefound the one described to be the most efcient and convenient.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The alternating fingers c and i, and the rotatng shaft d, with the arm F, substantially as and for the purposeherein described.
In witness that the above-described invention is claimed by me I have hereunto set my
