MEANS FOR DATING AND IDENTIFYING TICKETS.

MEANS FOR DATING AND IDENTIFYING- TICKETS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Tatented Nov. 237,
Application fled December 18, 1916. Serial No. 137,484.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS W. FLnsHNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los'Angeles and State of California, have invented a new and useful Means for Dating and Iden- Y vide an identification die or stamp which is adapted to cooperate with the dating die and the companv and location stamp of the ordinary type of ticket dating machine so that the identification marks by which the salesmen are known will appear upon the tickets, the die or stamp being constructed so that it may be readily removed from the ordinary dating machine and carried by'the salesman identified thereby in order that a salesman on going olf duty may remove his identification die from the machine and the salesman taking his place may place in the machine his identification die.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the dating machine of well-known construction equipped with my improved die;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the die assembled Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the identification element forming a part of the die:
Fig. 4- is a bottom view of the main portion of the die; I
i Fig. 5 is a bottom view of the identification element; and
Fig. 6 is a cross sectional view taken on line 66 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 7 is a detail view of thebed;
Fig. 8 is a view of the imprint made by the complete die as it appears on a ticket.
Referring to the drawings, designates as an entirety a'dating machine of wellknown construction which includes a body portion 2, stamping member 3 pivoted thereto at 4, and a die receiving recess 5Whi0ll receives my improveddie The die 6 comprises in this instance a rectangular metal plate 7 which constitutes the main or body portion of the die, and :1 rectangular die member 8 interfitting'with the plate 7 and carrying the identification characters. The plate 7 is for the most part formed as a majority of the dies for dating machines, there being provided a central opening 9 into which extends the dating members 10 of the machine 1. Adjacent to the opening are suitable letters or characters 11 which identify the particular railroad or company issuing the ticket. Preferably at diametrically opposite points there are provided identification die receiving openings 12.
The die member 8 has upstanding projec-- tions or lugs 13 formed onthe upper face thereof and the identification characters is are formed in the upper faces of these lugs or projections. Thus the die plate 7 is thin ner than some portions of the die member 8 'so that, though it would be possible to place the die member 8 in the die-receiving recess without the die plate 7, it is not possible to use the die plate 7 alone for validating tickets in the machine. Upon its under face the plate 7 is provided with fiat faced projections 15 near the corners thereof, the projections being joined in pairs by ribs 16 whose outer faces are flush with the flat outer-faces of the projections. The projec .tions 13 are carried upon lateral extension 17 that are formed integral with the frame 8 and extend inwardly toward one another from certain opposed inner edges of saidframe, the inner edges of said extensions 17 engaging the ribs 16. The under faces of the extensions 17 are provided with recesses 18 adapted to receive lugs 19 carried on the body portion 2 of the machine 1 and located within the recess 5.
In assembling the die, the plate 7 placed upon the member 8, the member and plate being of the same dimensions so that their edges come flush with one another. The projections 13 engage in the die-receiving openings 12 and the upper faces thereof lie flush with the upper face of the body plate 7. When the die is thus assembled it may be placed in the recess 5 and will be held against slipping by the lugs 19 011 the body of the machine which engages within the openings 19 in the member 8 of the die.
The die plate 7 is the same as the ordinary die plates generally used in dating machines with the exception of the under construction and the die-receiving open using my invention for dating railway tickets, each ticket salesman is proided with identificatizjm die member 8, Y of these members 55 being a pted to fit o Plate 7,215 shown in Figs. 1, 2 and or the drawings. 'Whe the salesman amines his duties he fits his particular identification die member into the plate 7 which carries the characters identifying the particular road or company and places the die when thus assembled into the recess 5. The dating machine operated in the ordinary manner and each ticket sold by the particular salesman bears his identification mark which-will make it possible to trace the sale of each ticket.
It will be seen that an effective method of dating and identifying tickets may be carried out with my invention, such method consisting of the marking or stamping the time of sale of tickets together with the identification marks by which the sales of tickets are identified, at the time of sale or" the tickets and upon the date of sale. Therefore it will be seen that mechanically my invention comprises the provision of an identification die or stamp which will cooperate with the main die or Stamp of a dat- It i3 inn" machine so that the fore oin method m y be carried out and a compact and simconstructed die as a whole may be proed.
I claim: e A. dating machine die for railway tickets comprising a main die plate having central opening therein to receive the dating die of a dating machine and an opening to one side of the main opening, a second die plate of the same dimensions as the first named die plate and interfitting with said first named die plate beneath the latter, and an identification die on said last named plate extending through the last named opening of the first named plate to cause a mark to appear on the ticket which will identify the seller of the ticket so that the unauthorized sale of tickets may be determined.
2. The. combination with a dating machine die for railway tickets including a dating machine body having a main die plate receiving recess therein, a stamping member above the recess, a dating die and a main die plate in the recess, of an identification die plate mounted within the recess and extending beneath the main die, co-
