Ieaasoa,
ToaZZ whom z't may concern.'
Be it known that I, EDWARD KIRBY BOT- TLE, acitizen of the United States, residing at Elmira, in the county oA Chemung and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ticket- Cases, of which the followingis a fulhclear, and exact description, such as willy enable others skilled vin the artto `whichit appertains to make and use the same.
`'Ihis invention relates toy record-making devices, and has special rei'erence` to such records as sales sheets, sales books, etc.
One of the objects of the invention is the provisionv of a practical device wherewith permanent records `on original and duplicate sheets or slips maybe. readily made.
Ano-ther object of the invention is the pro vision of a simple device by means of which a record may be made in the single sheet in the operation of tearing the same, `and so that the sheet sections will have counterpart records.
Another object ofthe invention is `the provision of` a practical-,recording `device having associated therewith a container` or receptacle for a record sheet. i
Other objects will bein partobvious and in part pointed out hereinafter. f
^ The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter set forth, and the scope of the application of which will be indicatedv in` the fol-` lowing claims. 1 i n In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification and wherein simi` lar reference charactersrefer to similar parts throughout. the several views,- A

times. not to be retained by him, but is retained in the custody of the clerk, the duplicate being sent to the `cashier or auditor. Chances of error or deception are oliered by many of the present systems and one `of the main purposes of the present invention is to minimize theoccurrence of errors and to lessenthe `chances of deception without discovery. To this end this invention contemplates the use of a sheet of paper whichrnay be` readily torn, such as the record paper found-in theordinary sales book. The sheets are provided with the usual places for writing in the items of the purchase, etc., the i price for the purchase, and, in addition,"at some portion, is provided one or more columns of tiguresarranged in series `corresponding-with, or as closely as possibleto,
the totals ordinarily paid for the purchase. i f
For instance, on the sheet shown in Fig; 3 ofthe drawings the blank portions repref sent those parts Vto be `written upon and whereon the clerk may indicate the items purchased, the cost and thetotal in the usual manner. The coluumns of-iiguresrepresent a series corresponding, respectively, either accurately for approximately, to the total cost tended that the total amount of the purchase i y shall be found in said columns, although this is not essential as the approximate amounts of the purchase will obviously be found therein within reasonable limits.
By means of the presentinvention one or more items appearing in each column: may
be permanently marked or indicated, as by severing the sheet so` that the mainportion' of one column shall be on one severed vsection andthe main portion of the other columnon the other severed section, counterpart marks being made on the respectivesectionsat or opposite the numerals of the columns cor# responding to the amount of thepurchase; In the present embodiment the sheet is torn on straight lines intermediate the columns,E eXcept opposite the numeral indicating the amount ofthe purchase,and at this point a tongue or tip 0d is left on one section and a counterpart recess b ion the other. Thusthe severed sections arepermanently marked by counterpart elements whichcorrespond and are located at denite places on the sections so that the auditor may be able to note' whether or not thevmarking-:olr onesheet is l differenty that. on another and to this extent take notice ofthe fact that the'sheets are properly or improperly marked.
Referring now l more specifically, to e then drawings, the numeral 1 indicatesv amain sheet-tearing or severing member having a tearing edge 2, against which a sheet may be v manipulated so. as to be torn and thereby divided into separateV sections. In the preferred embodiment theY tearingI edge 2 is straight for a greater portion of its length, 'I being interrupted intermediate its ends by anV auxiliaryl sheet-tearing member 3 having preferably two tearing edges l and 5 extending at angles to thetearing edge of the main member 1. and toeach other; The auxiliary l member 3 thus provides a tooth on the main member which projects fromv the edge of the main memberand is preferably located intermediate vthe ends of the edge 2, as 'illustrated. :The numeral 6 indicates a table on which the sheet to betorn may be placed beneath .the tearing members, whereupon the 1 lattermay-be'pressed toward the table 6, so
as toxcause the-.sheet to be gripped or held between the tearing members and the member.r6 prior to being torn.
In Vthe preferred .embodiment the tearing memberand the table are associated with a receptacle yor container comprising the lateralwalls 7 and 8 and the lower wall 9, a
portion of theV upper wall of the receptacle beingformed by the main tearing member 1, as clearlyshown.v .In this receptacle is provided a normally open slotv or passageway 10 leading into the interiorthereof and through which -a .portion of a record sheet may be-inserted so that the tearing edge `2 extends .laterally of the passageway, in the preferred embodiment Vthe main member 1 other r.wall being'comprised of the table 6 whihvmay beregarded as an extension of the wallh8, these members being supported with suii'icientrrigidity to vprevent theabstractionzof: the-contents of the receptacle through thepa'ssageway or slot. Thusthe f passagewayil@ is bounded on one side by metallicandthatportion of the `upperwall formed bythe member 1 vis'movable toward anddfrom. the table 6,- lsaid wall l being preferably `integral with vthe wall: 7: and: nor'- mally suliiciently sp'aced.from thev upper surface-of vtheftable, so as Ito permitlthe sheet Vto bereadily introduced between them and underneath the',V auxiliary tearing .member .13,.the resiliency` ofthe metal permitting the main member 1 to be' moved toward and from the table 6, as will be understood. In case the member 1 may not be of suiiicient stifness to eifectively grip the sheet throughvout its width, it may `lbe reinforced by a metallic plate or member 11 brazed thereto. lThe lower wall 9 of the receptacle may bc provided with a door 12, hinged at4 13, and a suitable lock 14 may be employed to fasten the door, so as toprevent unauthorized entry into the receptacle. Different lforms of original and duplicate sheets may be elnployed, `two forms being illustrated. In Fig. 3, the sheet is flat and is employed without carbon manifolding devices, the items of purchase being separately written in the proper sections under the heading Restaurant?. One of these sections-may be termed the` original and the other the duplicate. Intermediate the sheet are two similar columns of numerals corresponding to the purchase total. In Fig. et the sheet is folded so that the sections to be written upon are superposed, and the column of numerals on onesection is duplicated on the other and lies ldirectly beneath it,the upper vsection Y being carbonized on the inner face. Preferably the container is slotted at its ends opposite the passageway 10, 'as indicated at 15,
so as'to permit a wide sheet to be easily 95 adjusted in the passageway referred to.
f 'Ihe operation of the apparatus is as follows: A sheet of the character hereinbefore referred to, in which the original and dupli cate portions thereof are provided withvcorresponding similar identifying characters a or d, has one end placed beneath the member 1, the sheet being manipulated so that the tooth 3 shall come opposite the number in the column corresponding to the total amount of the purchase. In this position one end ofthe sheet will be inside the.receptacle more or less, with the sheet lying upon the table 6. By pressing down the meinberflthe sheet may be held in the position to'which itv has been adjusted and may then be manipulated by the operatorso as first to vbe drawn straight back toward the main tearing. edge 2, which movement will result in the tearing of the sheet by the sides ofthe tooth 3. Aftersuch tearing has been accomplished, lthe ysheet maybe completely torn apart by'being manipulated so as to shear against the straight tearing edge 2,
. whereupon` one end ofthesheet will Vbe in above construction and many apparently widely different embodiments of this invention could be made without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A record-making device comprising a receptacle having a normally open slot, one edge of which is provided with a tearing member vand an auxiliary tearing member integral therewith, said edge being supported with suiiicient resiliency to permit said tearing member to `be pressed against the opposite edge of said slot and with sufficient rigidity to prevent the abstraction of the contents of the receptacle through said slot,
said receptacle being provided with a door through which the contents may be removed, and means for locking said door.
2. A record-making device comprising a receptacle having a slot normally open for the insertion of a ticket therein from the outside, one edge of which is provided with a tearing member and an auxiliary tearing member, said edge being supported with sufficient resiliency to permit said tearing mem- Der to be pressed against the opposite edge of said slot and with suiiicient rigidity to prevent the abstraction of the contents of the receptacle through said slot, the other side of said slot having attached thereto a support for guiding the sheets as they are inserted in said slot, said receptacle being provided with a door through Vwhich the contents may be removed, and means for locking said door.
In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
