ROBERT DIAMOND MAYO AND ROBERT DAVID MAYO, 0F CLEVELAND, @HIO, ASSIGNORS TO H. S. LAVINE, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.

EECEPTACLE-HOLDER.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, ROBERT DIAMOND and Bonner DAVID ifiiyo, citizens of the United States, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Receptacle-Holders, of which the following is a specification. This invention relates to improvements in receptacle holders and relates particularly to details of improvement over our copending application, Serial No. 708,870, filed July 11, 1912.

More specificallythe invention relates to a receptacle holding mechanism comprising a frame, a movable receptacle receiver mounted in the frame and adapted to be held in locked position with receptacles in place by means of a locking device and arranged to be held in locked position by a door or window, the frame being located so that the latch or lock will have to move into the path of the door in orderto be disengaged from the locking mechanism. The device may also be applied to a door with a latch or lock moving into close proximity to the jamb or facing when in locked position.

Invention also resides in an improved form of ratchet mechanism arranged between the frame and the receptacle holding device.

The invention may be further briefly summarized as consisting in the construction and combination of parts hereinafter set forth in the following description, drawings and claims. I

Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is an end elevation of the device as it is applied; Fig. 2 is a front elevation showing the edge of the door; Fig. 3 is a plan view of a portion of the device and of a portion of the door facing and door; Fig. l is a similar view with the door open and with the latch or lock withdrawn; Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the locking plate; Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the ratchet member; Fig. 7 is a sectional view of the several parts with the holding rivet removed; and Fig. 8 is a plan view of the spring.

Tn carryin out the invention any preferred form and construction of parts may be employed so long as they possess the necessary characteristics, but we have shown one embodiment in the drawings Which is highly efiective in operation, and in such Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed September 30, 1912.

arrangement, 1 represents a suitable door facing to which is swung a door Secured to the facing or mph 1 frame member 8 having end brackets e and 5' projecting The frame member 3 is provided with recess portion 6 forming a recess for receiving a bracket 7 and both parts are provided with a suitable opening for the reception of a screw 8 by which the frame member well as the bracketare secured to the door facing or jamb. The bracket 7 has an arm 9 extending outward therefrom, and this arm is provided with an opening in alinement' with an opening 10 in the end bracket 5, and these openings receive the latch shank 11 which is provided with a head 12 at one end on the inside of the bracket with a return bend latching portion 13 adapted to project through either of two holes 1e.- and 15 formed in the end bracket A. spring 16 is arranged between the head 12 and the end bracket 5, and this spring tends to draw the latching portion in toward the end bracket 5 or through one of openings 1a or 15 with which it may be in alinement.

Rotatably mounted. with the end brackets a and 5 is a receptacle holder 1'1 in the form of a channel which is adapted to receive the neck of milk bottles and the. like. member is provided with an car 18 adapted to be secured to the end bracket 1 by means of a rivet 19. The opposite end of the channel member 17 is provided with slots 20for receiving suitable ears 21 formed on a supporting member 22 having a flange 23 and an opening 2 1 for receiving a suitable rivet. This structure is shown in Fig. 7, but the member 22 may be formed integral with the channel member 17 as set forth in side elevation in Fig. 2. The flange 23 forms an opening within the supporting member and the ratchet mechanism is arranged within this opening. This ratchet mechanism c011- sists of a cup-shaped spring 25 formed of flat material and having an opening 26 at the center andsuitable radial portions, the spring is dished andv operates in a well known manner. Engaging this spring is a ratchet member 27 of. substantially the configuration of th inside of the supporting member 22 and adapted to fit within the same, and it has a flange 28 extending from the edge thereof and engaging within the flange 23 and also is provided with a central the latch against rotation.

former position,

opening 29 and suitable ratchet teeth 30 arranged in a circle around the opening 29. These ratchet teeth cooperate with ratchet teeth 51 struck out from a locking disk 32 having an opening 33 therein and locking openings 34L for a purpose to be described.

The supporting member 22 and spring 25, the ratchet member 27 and the lockingdisk 32 are all mounted upon a rivet 35 extending through an opening in the end bracket 5. These parts are supported so that the openings in the locking disk 32 are adapted to register one at a time with the opening 14 formed in the end bracket 5 whereby when the locking portion 13 and the lock or latch extends through theopening it it may extend through one of the openings in the locking disk and thereby lock it against rotation. I

In operation, the receptacle holding member is turned so that it is in a position at an angle of ninety degrees as shown in Figs. l and 2. -When in this position the channel member extends out to a point so that the bottom thereof is in alinement with the edge of the bracket l whereby free access may be had to the channel and the neck of the bottle may be inserted therein. The bottle is then slipped in past the end bracket i into the channel when the bottle is released. The weight of the milk and the bottle causes the holder to rotate when the ratchet mechanism will permit the rotation by its snapping over the ratchet teeth of he locking disk, this disk being held by The arrange ment of the ratchet teeth is such that the receptacle holder cannot be returned to its and the only Way to remove the bottle is to withdraw the latch and permit the rotation of the locking disk. This latch may not be withdrawn, however, when the door 2 is closed by reason of the engagement withthe door before the looking portion is withdrawn from the locking disk in the end bracket 5. In order to prevent the wrenching of the neck of the bottle from the holder 17, a suitable bail 36 is provided with end portions 37' secured to cars 38 formed up from the end of the holder. This bail engages the sides of the bottles and prevents their being wrenched out of the holder.

Having described our invention, we claim 1. Receptacle holding and locking mechanism comprising a door frame, a door movable with respect to the frame, a receptacle holder frame mounted on one of said members, a receptacle holder movable inthe receptacle holder frame, and locking mechanism between the receptacle holder frame and the receptacle holder and arranged to be held in a locked position by the door when closed and to be free to be unlocked when the door is opened. v

2. In a bottle holder, a frame, a holding channel movably mounted in said frame, a locking member slidably mounted in the frame and adapted to extend beyond the same and to engage said channel and lock it against movement, and means normally tending to force said lock into locked position. v I v 3.
