CHECK SORTER.

- Zm'taess "onrr SAMUEL 1). PAGE, OF DES MOINES, IOWA.
CHECK-SOR'IER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 2a, 1918.
Application filed April 30, 1917. Serial No. 165,636.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL D. PAGE, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Des Moines, in the county of Polk and State of Iowa, have invented a certain new and useful Check-Sorter, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a check sorter of simple, inexpensive and durable construction.
A further object is to provide a check sorter having a fixed base with a fixed wall thereon, and having a movable wall with simple and inexpensive means for limiting the degree of movement of said movable wall, and having simple and inexpensive means for mounting the separating sheets above the fixed base.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of the various parts of the device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 shows a side elevation of a check sorter embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 shows a horizontal, sectional view of the same taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, the separating sheets being omitted.
Fig. 3 shows a vertical. sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 shows a sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 5 shows a front elevation of one of the separator sheets.
In the accompanying drawings, I have used the reference numeral 10 to indicate generally the fixed base of my device, which comprises a plate of wood or the like. Secured to the upper surface of the base 10, at the rear side thereof is an upwardly and rearwardly inclined wall 11, having near its lower forward edge a short vertical surface 12, secured to which is a plate 13 having horizontally, forwardly extending wires or rods 14 spaced from each other.
At the forward end of the device is an upright wall member 15 having on its rearward surface a plate 16 having rearwardly extending wiresor rods 17 arranged in staggered relation with and spaced from the rods 14. The wall member 15 is provided with guide rods 18*, which slide in suitable slots in the base 10.
In the base 10 is a slot or recess 18 extending from the forward edge thereof rearwardly, which recess 18 is spaced from the upper and lower surfaces of the base 10.
Secured to the wall. 15 is a wire or rod 19 extending into the recess 18 and having at its inner end a horizontal, lateral extension 20.
Screwed into the base 10 from the upper surface thereof, near the forward edge of said base is a screw 21, the lower portion of which extends into one side of the recess 18 filling a part of said recess, so as to leave room on one side of said screw for the rod 19, but so as to engage the extension 20 when the wall 15 is moved outwardly, for thereby limiting the outward movement of said wall 15 and acting as a stop.
Attention is called to the fact that extension devices of this kind, which employ telescoping rods or the like, are much more expensive than a device of this kind having the rods 14 and 16 spaced above the base 10 and staggered with relation to each other.
I preferably use two of the rods 14 and two of the rods 17.
In assembling the device, there are mounted on the rods 14 and 17 separator sheets 22, wh ch are provided with indexing tabs 25.
My device may be put to a great variety of uses, but is intended primarily for use as a check sorter.
When the spaces between the sheets 22 fill up, the wall 15 may. be moved forwardly for increasing the capacity of the device as may be necessary. When the device is not in use or when the spaces between the sheets are not filled, the wall 15 is moved to position adjacent to the base 10, and the device is kept in its collapsed or contracted position.
Some changes may be made in the construction, arrangement .and combination of the various parts of my device, without departing from the essential features and purposes of the patent to be issued upon this application, and it is my intention to cover by this application any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalents which may be reasonably included within the scope of my claims.
I claim as my invention:
1. In a device of the class described, a fixed base, a wall thereon inclined upwardly and away from said base near one side thereof, rods secured to said Wall and extending away therefrom in parallel relation to each other, spaced above said base, a movable wall member adjacent to the edge of said first wall, said second wall having rods extending toward the first wall parallel with each other and with said first rods, spaced above said. base, said base having a recess extending from its edge adjacent to said second Wall toward its free edge spaced from its upper and lower surfaces, a rod secured to said second wall extending into said recess having at its inner end a horizontal angular extension, means extended into said recess near the edge of the base adjacent to the second wall, and adapted to fill part of said recess for forming a stop for engaging said extension, and separator sheets slidably mounted on the rods extending from said walls.
2. In a device of the class described, a base, a wall thereon adjacent to one edge thereof, rods secured to said wall and extending away therefrom in parallel relation, above the base, a movable wall member slidably mounted on said base adjacent to the opposite edge thereof from said first wall, said movable wall member having rods extending toward the first wall, parallel with each other and With said first rods, spaced above said base, a member on said movable wall. member, extending into said base, and means for limiting the outward movement of said last described member.
