SHEET-DELIVERY REQEPTACL Patented. Fence, 1917'.

Application filed June 20, 1916. Serial No. l04,782.

'To all whom it may concern;

Be it known that I ,Mosns M MARGUSE,

a citizen of the United States and resident be held in close relationship andvtoward the delivery opening in the front wall of the receptacle. p

A still further object is to provide cer tain improvements in the form, construction' and arrangement of the several partsof therec'eptacle'whereby the sheets may-be .25

readily Withdrawn one at atime without undue friction.

- Practical embodiments of my invention are represented inthe accompanying draw ings in which Figure 1 represents one form of a recepbeing shown projecting through the delivery slot, p

vertical central section taken from front to rear, through the receptacle, "Fig. -3 is a vertical section taken in. the

plane of the. use-111411 of Fig. 2,

the free end of the front which is piv' .ited

.weight 31 an id the of which is a ranged to engage the hack of i provided through the front door 6 while in Figs. 5 to 8 inclusive, the delivery slot "2 is horizontally arranged. To facilitutethe removal of 1he interfolded sheets and. to reducethe iriction thereon. the adjacent edges of the slot 12, as shown at 13. 1- Figs. 1 to i inclusive, are curved to form oppositely co ivexed walls for the slot. The projecting ecges of the slot are providml' with a bottom and a top 16 in which roll ers 17518, are mounted in position to be ensheets are withdrawn. In-

the inside of the front door for still-further eliminating the friction on the Sheets and also serves'to how the front sheets outwardly thereby faciltating' their removal.

An upwaidly and rearwardly inclined floor 21 is spaced a distance from the hottom'l "and (Xtendsfroin the front to the rear wall within the receptacle, upon which bottom the e( lQ'ES of the group of interfolded sheets rest. his inclination of the bottom 21 tends to keep the sheets fed forwardly toward the ('elivery slot.

In order that the sheets may he pressed towardthe iront door (land that the pressure upon the sheets will be uniform, I provide a plate follower 22 whichis hinged at 23, 24, to supports 25, 26, fixed to a bar 2 at 2-8. 29 in the side walls 3,4. The flc or 21' is cut away at 25*, 26*, to allow the s 1pports'25, 26', to pass therethrough. The bar 27 is provided with a forwardly extended shoulder 30 which is adapted to b 2 engaged by a weight31 hinged at 32 to the bar 2?. The function of the shoulder 30 is'to remove the effect 61 the weight 31 uponthe; plate.

follower" when the number of sheets has beenreduced to a predetermined amount to automatically reduce the forward pressure on the group of sheets. t

To exert a pressure'upon the bottom of the plate foilower' weighted lever 33 is pivoted at 3%, 85, in the side walls 3, 4: and provided with a depending arm 36 which adapted to bear against the plate follower 22 near the bottom thereof. The plate follower 22'is jpro'ided with ears 37, which are vcline arranged to engage the inwardly turned flanges of the side walls ll. 4. thereby limit-- ingthe outward movement of the plate follower.

y In the form shown in Figs. 5 to 8 inclusive, the receptacle has a floor 38 which is pivoted at 39. l0. intheside walls and provided with a weight ll. Supports 42, 43, aite secured to this bottom for the plate follo-wer'.- Thus it will be seen that the pressure upon the plate follower and sheets will be constant as the number of sheets is re duce'd. To prevent the, sheets from falling forward when the door is opened, I provide an arm 4i pivoted at 45 and adapted to swin into and out of position. The in d guide plates 46, 4?, are so formed and located as to present a flared delivery opening lS-in the door and also support the rollers l9, 50- In this form, the interfolded sheets lie on their side or folded edges.

By forming the delivery slot in the door of the receptacle, it will be seen that I am enabled to very readily insert a new group of sheetswhen so desired for the reason that the plates withtlie pressure applied from the backinay be returned tothelimit of their backward movement until thegroup of sheets has been-placed within the receptacle the frontdoor closed'and locked and the free edge of the front sheet drawn through the delivery slot.

It willbe understood thatwarious changes inay be resorted to in the form, construction" and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention and hence I do not intend to be limited to the specific details herein described except as they may be set forth in the claims.

What I clalm 1s:--

1. A sheet delivery receptacle having a delivery slot through its front, a support pivoted in the receptacle, a weighthinged to said support, a follower carried by the. r

support, and means engaging the follower for pressing the sheets toward the slot.

2. A sheet'delivery receptacle having a de' livery slot through its front, a support pivotedlinthe receptacle, a. weight hinged to said support, a follower carried by the support, and a leverengaging the followerfor pressing the sheets toward the slot.

' 3. A sheet delivery receptacle having a delivery slot through its front, a support pivoted in the receptacle, a weight hinged to said support, a follower carried by'the support, and a lever havin a depending arm engag- .ing the follower or pressing the sheets toward the slot.

4. A sheet (ilelive'ry receptacle having a delivery slot through its front, a support pivoted in the receptacle, a weight hinged to said support, a follower carried by the support, and a' weighted lever having av depending arm engaging the follower fonpressin the sheets toward the slot.

5 A sheet delivery receptacle havinga delivery slot through its front, afollower, a support for the follower pivoted in the receptacle, aweight hinged to the support in position to be relieved of its effect on the follower when the number of sheetsjis diminished to. a predetermined amount and means engaging the follower for pressing the sheets toward the slot.

6, A sheet delivery receptacle having a delivery slot through its front, a follower, a support for the follower pivoted in-the receptacle, a weight; hinged to the support in position to be relieved of its effect on the follower when thenumber of sheets is diminished to a predetermined amount and means engaging the followerfor constantly pressing the sheets toward the slot.

In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as any invention, I have signed my name this 3rd day'of June 1916;
