My improved machine, although capable -of use for delivering various merchandise, is more particularly designed for embodiment' in a ticket-vending and money-changing machine in whidi coins oidifierent-denominations may, beinserted, and change delivered. to-the "value -.of theansertd coin and change be" delivered tothe value of the said coin or other cheek. e

For the indicated .purpose I make use of.

, tickets, ejector slides associated with .the holders, :1 series of actuating levers for the slides, and a master lever adapted toreceive a coin or other check in various po-' sitions to connect the master lever with a particular actuating lever, according to the value of the check or coin, and {I arrange the several levers so that certaiuof them may more in unison according .to the particular check inserted-in the machine. I

The distinguishing featuresof my invention, and the im ortant structural elements characterizing t e preferred embodiment which, is illustrated as an ekample, will be more particularly explained in. the specific description hereinafter to be given. Reference is to be had to .the accompanying drawings forming a .part .of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all+ the views. p u

Figure 1 is'u perspective view of a machine embodying :my invention; Fig. 2 is a plan'vi'ew; Fig. 3 is a transverse vertical but omitting the levers, except the master'- lever; Fig. 5is-a-deta1l-vert1cal section o 6 s a long tudinal.

-vided, and in bearin is a sectional Plan view; and Fig. 8: is a fragmentary detail, givento show a modified form of the actuating levers.

- In constructing the machine embod ing .my invention .in accordance with the ilustrated ,exa ple, a suitable case 10 is pro- 11, 11' therein is supported a rock shaft-12, surrounding which are hollow concentric, shafts 13, 14, 15, the melting Ofwhich shafts serves to cause the delivery of change or merchandise from one ormore of aseries of stacks 16, 17 18, 19

constituting holders for superposedseries 0t coins or .other articles 20, illustrated eonventionally in the present instanceits-coins.

The hollow: shafts .are respectivelj, held in position by collars 21 having set screws 24.

Each rocker shaft has a rocker, arm 12, 13', 114, the respective arms beingconnected by links 28, 29, and 31 with horizOnt- al ejector slides 32, 33, 34, 35, a-rran ed in the base 10 of the stacks and forms with openings '36 adapted to receive the'lowermost coin or coins in a stack.

Each rocker shaft has an actuating lever, the levers being preferably of different lengths; thus the shaft 12 has an actuatinglever 38 the shaft 13 an actuating lever 39; the shaft 14 an actuating lever 40 and the sl1a-ftl5 an actuating lever 41. -A master lever 42 hasits hub loosel sleeved on the hollow bearing 11, in whic One end of the shaft 12 is supported and is provided with 'a1handle 43fprojeeting outward throu' h the case 1'0, and adapted to move in as ot 10" in the top of the. case. The master lever has a slot 44 ,for receiving a coin 45, or equivalent check, there being a check slot 10 in the .top of the case transecting the slot 10 to permit entrance of'the oin to the slot 44.0f the master lever when the latter is in the normal position. A I

The coin or check 45 is adapted to be intercepted by oneof the actuating levers according to the value of the check. The means to intercept the coin may be. seats Ont-herespective actuatinglevers; thus the-top ofihe lever 38-terminates in a curved seat iifitthe lever 39 termlnates in a curved seat 39; and the lever 40 terminatesin a curv d seat 40% wall 44? of the slot-consti u es an additional seat to receive the smallest check. The several seats for the' checks as illustrated, are arranged to receive coins, the. seat 44 being adapted to receive and intercept a dime; the seat 38 to intercept a twenty-five cent piece; the seat 39" to intercept -a fifty-cent,piece, and the seat to receive andintercept a silver'dollari The depositing of a dime in the slot 44 will result in the dime resting on the seat 44, and adjacent 'to"said seat there is provided on the first lever 38", a member 38" in such a position as to lie in front of the coin, the latter being indicated in dotted position at so that the forward rocking of the master lever 42. will cause the coin 45 'to'engage the member 38" and carry forward the lever 38,-to rock the shaft- 12. and through the rocker arm 12 and link 28, the ejector slide 32 will be moved. Similarly there is a member 39 on the lever 39,ad jaoent to the seat 38 of the lever 38, so that a coin 45" intercepted by the lever 38 will engage the member-39"' and -'carry forward the lever 39. I v

The lever 40 has a member 40", adjacentto the seat '39} of thelever 39 to be engaged by i 'acoin 45,- and the lever 41 has aimem'ber 41 adjacent; to the seat .40".-o'f the lever 40, to be, engagedby a coin 45.- The lever 38 is-free to. mo re-forward alone,"b'ut in orderto carry said 'lever forward by 'amovement of the adjacent lever-'33, the lever 38'is formed with a trip 38ilymg'm thetpath ofmovementof thelever 39., Similarly the lever 39ihas a trip 39 projecting in. front of the next levcr 40, and the 'lever40 has a .trip 40, projecting in front of,the lcv.er- 41.

It will be seen that in the described con-- structionthe seats 38 ,--etc., formed by the upper ends of the actuating levers, and the members '38", 3 etc., for engagement y the coins. constitute selective elements m"- 01151). positioned with respect to the master lever 42.,ywhei-eby coins of varying values -.wi l-l automatically select the lever or levers to be moved forward to actuate an ejector-or combination ofejectors. Thus with the ina .moves. forward.

chine adapted. to deliver change ,.for coins from a dime .to asilver dollar, the depositing of the dime wilJ,--up'orr,the rocking of the master operating-,;.lever '42., cause the Jet-er 38 only to move forward and only. the

shaft 12 will be roclqecl ,-;which will cause the. ejector slide 32 to bemoved. Said slide is of a thickness to receive two nickels, as in d i-. rated in Fig-L6, so' that 'the-forward movement of the slide will eject tw'onicke ls as chang'e' for the deposited dime.

If a twenty-five cent'piece'be inserted, the two levers'38, 39, will be selected by the said coin fortlie forward movement in combina-' tion, the seat- 38 -bit the lever '38 serving "to intercept the coin, and the member 39- will be engaged by the coin as the master lever .Thewcoin will thus servefor direct connection between the master lever 42 and the lever 39, and by reason of the trip 38 on the lever 38, both levers 38 and 39 will move forward, and through the member 40" of the lever 40 to connect the latter lever with the master wheel. The forward movement of the lever 40 will carry forward the lever 39 by reason of the trip 39?, and the lever 38 byreason of the trip 38, so that the three lovers .will move forward in combination, and will rock the;

shafts 1 2, 13, 14, and through the connections of the rocker armsand links, the slide 34: will be actuated in addition to theslides 32 and '33. The stack 18 with which the slide 34 is associated, is adapted to receive twenty} five cent ieces, and the hole 36 in said slide: is-of'a't ickness to receive one twenty-five cent piece. so that the latter piece with the five nickelsdischarged by the slides 32, 33,

will total =50 as change for the deposited coin'45'irThe-stack 19 latter will be intercepted bythe seat 40 of the lever 40 and connectthe master lever 42 with the lever 41, by reason of the member 41" on the latter lever. By reason of the in the arrangement shown, is Idesigned to contain fifty cent.- pieces, and upon the deposit ofa silver dollar 45, the.

trips 40, 39, 38; four actuating levers will now be moved to ward operating all ejector slides, and disch .ge to the delivering tray 37 one-fifty cent piece. one twenty-five cent piece, three nickels and two nickels.

' The master lever 42 with the deposited ('Olll .is adapted 'to move forward adjacent "to a plate 46 as-faras a channel or chute 47, which leads to a drawer 48 or its equivalent.

\Vithincasing 10 opposite the channel 47, is a guard 49, between which and thechannel the master lever is adapted .to move, said guard having fingers '50 separated by slots .50', the latterj'fbeing adapted to accommoblitdate themem mg :levcrs.

3 and 4 to the channel.47, at which point; the coin is to escape from the coin slot or passagej44fin thelever to thejdrawer 48, @djzic'erit tot-he. path of movement of the -bniast'er lever between the normal idle position thereof and the channel 47, a series of \resilient catches 51am provided, with either one of which the coin in the .slot 44 will contact so that after the coin is carried past a particular catch, the latter will spring outwardly behind the coin, and prevent return of the lever to-t-heoriginal osition, so that after the lever with a coin as been moved forward-to carry a coin past a catch 51, the lever must be "ven a full forward movement to the 'thanne 47, to permit escape of the coin before the lever can be returned. The provision of the catches will thus prevent repeating; The catches 51 are formed preferably on'the'plate 46, and said plate has lateral members 46 (Fig. 6) between which are concave recesses 46, the said projections and recesses being adjacent .to the idle position of the master lever,-and the opposed side edge 42". of the master lever 'is corres ondingly formed ;,the arrangement is such at coins of a predetermined ClEIIOmHIatIOII may pass the projecting members 46. The

opposite side edge 42 of the master lever 42 is approximately stepped to,corr'es pond with the ecreasin'g size 0 the successlve actuatin levers.- o

0 return the various levers to the original position after a forward-;movement, a retractile sprin'g 52 is provided, which has connection at one end with the case 10, and

at the-opposite end with the master lever In order that the-return of'the lever .42 will cause the return of any of the actuatinglevers that have been. carried forward, a

pin 38} is provided on the actuating lever 38 and projects laterally in the. rear of the master lever. Since in' all ,cases the lever 38 will move forward with {the master lever when any coin has been deposited, the i return of the master lever willrengage the lateral pin.38" and carry said lever 38 rearwardly.

' The return of the lever 38 will, byreason of which takes into a transverse the trips 38', 39, carry with it any additional actuating levers (39, 40, 41) that, have been moved forwardl 53, the master lever has a plate spring on the back thereof, which brings up against the" forward end of the screw" 53. The' strength of the plate spring 55 is such that r it will not be overcome by the sprin 52, and

thit' 'contact of the spring 55 with .t e screw 53 will-locate the master lever with its coin slot or passage 44 in register with the coin inlet 10 of the case. I provide means, hereinafter described, to prevent any particular ejector slide being actuated in case the coins or other articles to be delivered are exhausted in the particular 'stack associated with that slide, and in case an ejector slide has thusbeen prevented trommovin ward after a c'oinhas been deposit rearward movement by the operator grasping the'handle 43 and pulling the lever rearwardly against the tension of the ,plate spring 55, until the coin slot of the lever comes opposite a channel or .chute 56'constituting. an emergency coin-outlet, so that the coin will escape to a tray 57 and thus be recovered by the depositor. As one expedient for preventing movement of a slide upon the coins on a particular coin being exhausted, a gravity follower 58 may be em ployed jn each stack 16, 17-, etc.,- the fol-; lower being-in thelfor m of a weight which may have, If desired as shown in F i s. 4 and 5, an eye 58 for the attachment 0 a withdrawal cord or chain (not shown).

I n' connection. with the change-making devices as described, I provide a combined change-making and ticket-delivering mechanism, the same in all respects as that just provided corresponding with the shafts .13,

15, the shafts having rocker arms 12, 13, 15

connected by links 28., 29", 31', with ejector slides 32333, 35'. The slide 32" 0 at the base of ticket stack 16"; thes'hde 33" is at the base of a-duplex stacklcomprisin a coin stack 17 and a ticket stack 17",an

the slide 35 operates at the base of aduplex stack comprising a coin stack 19 ,and a ticket stack 19". by set screws 24 hold the rocker shafts in their respective positions.-. The rocker -arms 12,.etc.,' may be nnected with their re spective links 28, etc.,hy screw pins 27, and similar pins may connect the said links with the ejector slides'32, etc. The slide 32" has 'a-rectan lar opening 36" to receive and dis- Sct collars 21', 22, secured charge t 10 lowermost ticket 20 in the stack 16'. .The slide 33 has arectangular opening 36" to receive a ticket, and also an opening 36' tojdischarge a coin, \vhich'in the instance shown is designed to. be a nickel. The slide 35 has an opening 36." adapted to receive and eject two tickets 20", and an opening 36 adapted to receive and eject one nickel.

Three actuating levers 38, 39, 41 are provided respectively on the shafts 12, 13", 15"; the upper end 38 of the lever 38 forms a seat for a coin; a second seat 38 is formed on the IBVGRbQlOW the first seat. and at a still lower point there is formed on the mas a coin. The lever 38 has a member 38''promaster lever' la may 'beJgive'n an abnormal j'ecting toward the master lever above she 1' lowermost seat 42, to be engaged by a coin on said seat when the master lever moves forward,-and a second member 38* to be engagedby a coin, the arrangement being suchth'at'the lever 38 will be connected wit the master .lever either by a dime or by two nickels, as hereinafter. explained.

v In order that the lever. 38 may be actuated; by a forward movement of the love 39, said lever 38 has a trip 38 in the .patl.

. of movement of the lever 39?, and to a similar 'end the lever 39 has a tripmelnber 39 in the patlrof. movement of the lever 41. The lever, 39 also has a member 39 adja- 5 centt'o the .coin seat 38, tohe engaged by a coin connectin the said lever with the master lever, and I or a'siinilar purpose the lever 41 has a member all adjacent to the seat 39 to beengaged by a coin. lVith the described construction, and with tickets and nickels in 'the stacks as described, an inserted dime, indicated in dotted positionat .45, will" be intercepted by the seat .42 at the lower end of the coin. passage/44' in the master lever 42?, in a position toengage' the-trip 38 on the lever 38, so that aiforward -movemcnt of the master lever wilLrock the lever 38! of the shaft 12 and actuate theslide 32 to eject'one ten cent ticket. If two nickels be deposited in1snccession, the first will be intercepted by the seat 38i on the lever. 38, and. the second nickel will rest on thefirst one in line with the trip 88" on the lever 38, and-connect the 35 latter lever 'with' the master lever so that the same result will follow the depositing of twonickels as'if a (lime had been "deposited, and the ejector slide 32 will deliver a ten cent ticket to the delivery tray 37'. If a twenty five cent piece 'bepinserted it will be intercepted by the-seat 38"0n the lever 38', in a position to engage the trip member 39 v of the lever 39", and a forward movement of the master lever will then carry forward the lever 39" and also the lever 38 by reason ofthe triP. member 38. The forward rocking of the levers 38 and 39, in combi'-.

. nation, will; actuate the slides 32, 33, the
