Application filed April 10, 1916.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK J. RUPERT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Salem, in the county of Marion and State of Oregon, have invented a new and useful Savings-Bank, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to savings banks of that type made up of interfitting tubes, one of the objects of the invention being to provide a bank which cannot be opened until after a predetermined number of coins have been deposited therein, whereupon by the use of a simple device such as a pencil point, a small nail or the like, the bank can be unlocked through the medium of one of the coins contained therein.
A further object is to provide a bank of this type which is cheap to manufacture, which can be conveniently carried, and which will not get out of order.
Vfith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, can be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the savings bank. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section therethrough. Fig. 3 is a section on line AB Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a vertical transverse section through the casing of the bank and looking in the direction of the coin receiving slot and the looking spring. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the coin holder.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference 1 designates a tubular casing closed at one end and open at its other end. This casing is preferably substantially cylindrical and is provided, near its upper end, with a coin receiving slot 2. A recess 3 is formed longitudinally within the inner face of the wall of the casing and is preferably produced by pressing the metal of the cas- Specification of Letters Patent.

ing outwardly. 'VVithin this recess is secured a spring 4 which is forked, the spring being fastened at one end while its other or forked end has lugs 5 extending inwardly therefrom. A knob-like projection is formed on the casing at a point diametrically opposite the space between the free ends of the fork, this projection being designated 6 and having a small opening 7 extending therethrough. A spring 8 is attached to the closed end of the casing and projects downwardly therefrom. A groove 9 is formed longitudinally within the casing preferably by pressing the metal outwardly, this groove extending throughout the length of the casing.
The coin container used in connection with the casing is also preferably substantially cylindrical in cross section and tubular. This coin receptacle which has been inclicated at 9 is closed at its lower end and has a rib l0 pressed outwardly therefrom and designed to slide longitudinally within the groove 9 so that said receptacle will thus be held against rotation within the casing 1. A portion of the receptacle 9 is cut away at the top so as to permit a coin to be inserted through slot 2 and into the container 9. Another slot 11 is formed within the receptacle and is designed, when said. receptacle is fully housed within the casing, to receive the lugs 5 so that the container will thus be' locked within the housing. Then the container is thus fastened, slot 11 will be disposed diametrically opposite the opening 7.
A longitudinal slot 12 is provided within the container 3 and the opening 7 opens into this slot, as shown clearly in Fig. 2.
In using the device, the container 9 is inserted longitudinally into the casing until the lugs or studs 5 spring into the slot 11 whereupon said. container will be securely fastened in position. As the coins are inserted into the slot 2 they will come against spring 8 which will be pressed upwardly until the coins have dropped into the container 9, whereupon the spring will move back to position opposite the slot 2, thus preventing coins from being haken out of the bank. After the stack of coins in the bank has increased in size until one of the tion, can be cheaply manufactured, and has no parts likely to get outiof order.
What is claimed is 1. A savings bank including a casing, a locking spring therein extending longitudinally ofthe wall thereof and provided with spaced portions, there being an aperture within the casing at a point diametrically opposite the space between said portions for the reception of an opening tool, the wall of the opening constituting means for holding the'tool against lateral movement while being inserted, said casing having a coin receiving slot, a coin container insertible into the casing and having diametrically op posed openings, the wall of one of said openings being adapted to engage the spring whereby the container is secured within the casing.
2. A savings bank including a. casing havinga coin receiving slot, a spring housed within the casing and having inwardly extending spaced projections, there being an aperture within the casing at a point diametrically opposite the space between said projections, a coin container insertible lengitudinally into the casing and having diametrically opposed openings, one of said openings being adapted to register with an opening in the casing, a wall of the other opening being adapted to engage the projections on the spring whereby the coin receptacle is held within the casing, and cooperating means upon the casing and receptacle for holding them against relative rotation.
3. A savings bank including a casing having a coin receiving slot, there being a longitudinal depression within the casing, a forked spring secured at one end within the depressionand having inwardly extending projections upon the free end portions of the fork, there being an opening within the'casing dlametrically opposite the space between the pro ectlons, a coin container 1nsertible longitudinally into the casing and having diametrically opposed openings, the
wall of one of the openings being adapted to receive the projections to lock the container within the'casing, the other one of said openings being adapted to register with one of the openlngs; 1n the casing.

5. A savings bank including a casing having a coin receiving slot, there being a longitudinal depression within the casing, a forked spring secured at one end within the depression and having inwardly extending projections upon the free end portions of the fork, there being an opening within the casing diametrically opposite the space between the projections, a coin container insertible longitudinally into the casing and having diametrically opposed openings, the wall of one of the openings being adapted to receive the projections to lock the container within the casing, the other one of said openings being adapted to register with one of the openings in the casing, and a guard spring secured to one end of the container and norm ally projecting across the coin receiving opening.
