SEAL-LOCK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Got. 17, 1916.
Application filed. April 27, 1915. Serial No. 24,256.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, Josnrrr Fonsnnni and JOSEPH KoNIesnEnG, citizens of the United States, and residents, respectively, of Great Neck, in the county of Nassau and State of New York, and of the borough of' Manhattan, in the city and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Seal-Locks, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide a detector which must be mutilated before it can be removed.
Another object is to provide a detector which must be mutilated before access can be obtained to parts behind the detector.
The invention more particularly comprises a protective strip which is held in position by suitable positioning means, such as a locked cover, the strip being so located that K it must be punctured or otherwise mutilated before the positioning means can be released to permit the removal of the protective strip. The positioning means may form part of a holder for the protective strip or it may hold the strip in position on any suitable support.
The detector may be used for protecting an open compartment, a drawer, the door of a closed or locked compartment, a lock, the key-hole of a lock, or wherever applicable, where it is desired to indicate that access has been obtained or attempted past the detector. It is to be understood that the mutilation of the detector should be such that it will be rendered inapplicable for further use.
A practical embodiment of the invention is shown and described herein.
Figure 1 is a front view of a box illustrat- 'ing our invention, Fig. 2 is a section taken in The protective strip is denoted by 1, which strip may be of paper or other suitable material which can be readily punctured or otherwise mutilated.
In the embodiment of our invention shown, the detector is shown as applied to a lock box of well known form, in which'the body of the box is denoted by 2, its cover by 3, the lock by 4 and its key-hole by 5. A laminated holder 6 is permanently secured to the front of the box around the key-hole 5, to which holder is hinged a cover 7 which acts in connection with the holder as a positioning means for the strip 1. This cover is provided with a hole 8 in front of the keyhole 5, through which hole the protective strip is disclosed. This cover 7 is provided with a hook 9 arranged to enter a slot 10 in the holder and be engaged by a springpressed locking catch 11. This locking catch 11 is provided with a lip 12 under manual control for releasing the cover 7. A spring 13 may be provided for throwing the cover 7 open when released from the holder.
The manually operated releasing device is back of the protective strip 1 and is in alinement with a hole 14 in the cover 7 through which hole the protective strip is disclosed. The protective strip exposed through this hole 14 in the cover, must be mutilated before the lip 12 of the cover releasing device can be operated to release the cover. If desired, the holder may be provided with one or more impaling pins 15 in alinernent with holes 16 in the cover for still further securing the protective strip in position. It will thus be seen that the protective strip must be punctured and thereby mutilated to permit the insertion of the key into the keyhole 5 and also that the strip must be punctured and thereby mutilated to gain access to the cover releasing means, before the cover can be released to permit the strip to be removed from the positioning means.
It is intended that the mutilation of the protective strip be suflicient to render the strip inoperative for further use and it is also intended that if so desired a characteristic mark shall be placed upon the protecposed through the opening in the cover, this serving as an additional guard against the reuse of the protective strip.
' It is evident that the embodiment herein disclosed is only one of many embodiments which'mightibe provided Within the scope of our invention; hence We do notWish to Vl1m1t ourselves to the structure herein shown and described; but
What We claim is v Y 1. A lock, a protective strip, positioning means therefor, and a separate releasing device forthe positioning means operablein- I dependently of thelock, said strip covering and protecting both the lock and-the releasing device and requiring mutilation for gaining access to either.
2. YA look, a protective strip, positioning means therefor including-a cover, and a separate releasing device for thefcover operable independently of the lock, said strip coverboth the lock and the releasing device and requiring mutilation for gaining access to either.
4., A look, a protective strip, positioning means therefor including a cover and a separate releasing device for the cover operable independently of the lock, said strip covering and protecting both the lock and a releasing device and requiring mutilation for gaining access to either, and said cover having holes therethrough for exposing the protective strip both at the lock and at the releasing device.
5. A look, a protective strip, positioning means therefor including a holder and its cover and a separate releasing device for the cover operable independently of the lock, said strip covering and protecting both the lock and the releasing device and requiring mutilation for gaining access to either, and said cover having holes therethrough for exposing the protective strip at the lock and at the releasing device.
In testimony, that We claim the foregoingas our invention, we have signed our names this twenthy-sixth day of April, 1915.
