CASHIERS TICKET.
APPLICATION FILED MAR-19.1915.
ITED STATES PATENT ormcn HENRY A. ROSBACK, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
' CASHIERS TICKET.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY A. ROSBACK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and use ful Improvements in Cashiers Tickets, of
which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cashiers tickets, of a kind adapted for use in restaurants, lunch rooms, mercantile establishments, and the like. i
The present practice in lunch rooms, for instance, is to provide each waiter with a supply of tickets having a plurality of numerals printed thereon corresponding to the various prices which may be charged the customer for his meal; and after the trans action has been completed the waiter punches the ticket through or adjacent the proper numeral to indicate to the customer and to the cashier the amount to be paid for the purchase. This practice makes it necessary for each waiter to carry a punch, or other instrument, for punching or cutting each ticket in a manner to provide the proper significant indication.
By my invention, T overcome the necessity for the use of punching or cutting instruments, by providing a tickethaving a,
plurality of numerals printed thereon and a plurality of detachable portions located, respectively, adjacent the numerals and capable of detachment from the body of the ticket by being gripped between the fingers of the waiter, or other user.
The principal object of my 1nvention is to provide a cashiers ticket which may be manipulated to provide the desired significant indication without the use of a punch or other instrument.
These and other objects of my invention will be more particularly set forth in the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 illustrates a top plan view of one form of ticket constructed in accordance hill! with my invention; and
Fig. 2 shows a top plan view of a portion of another ticket embodying certain mod1' fied details.
Referring to the drawings, my improved ticket, designated generally by the numeral 10, has printed thereon a plurality of numerals 11, corresponding to the various Specification of Letters Patent.
, or other attendant.
indicated, for the direction of the customer after he receives the ticket from the waiter, Between the rows 12 and 13 of printed numerals, other information or advertising material may be printed on the ticket, as shown at 17.
The ticket as above described is substantiallythe same in form and arrangement as the tickets which are now employed in connection with punching or other cutting instruments, and the principal feature of my invention relates to the provision of the ticket with a plurality of apertures 18, which are formed through the ticket between each of the edges 11 and 15 and the adjacent rows 12 and 13, respectively, of the printed numer als 11. These apertures are punched or stamped through the ticket simultaneously with the printing thereof, or after the com pletion of the printing operation, in such a manner that each of the apertures intersects the adjacent edge of the ticket and is located on a center line midway between the two adjacent numerals, as clearly shown in the drawings.
This construction provides a plurality of projections or tongues 19, which are located, respectively, opposite the numerals 11, and these projections or tongues may be readily detached from the body of the ticket by tearing the material from which the ticket is formed, after gripping the desired tongue or projection between the fingers of the user.
t will be apparent that the detachment of one of these tongues or projections, as shown at 20, will leave an enlarged aperture or notch opposite the desired numeral to indicate to the customer and cashier the amount to be paid. i
To guard against possible error which might arise from an incorrect alinemcnt of the apertures 18 with the center lines between the numerals 11, I provide each of the projections 19 with a printed numeral 21,
which is in relatively small type and corre- Patented July 1, 1919. Application filed March 19, 1915. Serial No. 15,506.
when one of the projections detached the remaining project-ionswill bear numerals corresponding to all of the nun'ierals on the ticket, except the one which indicates the amountto be aid.
In F ig. 2 have shown a portion of a ticketin which the apertures 25 are punched through the ticket midway between the center lines of the adjacent numerals, but spaced inwardly so as not to intersect the adjacent edge of the ticket. By this construction intervening portions 26 are formed which are readily detachable from the body of the ticket, while at the same time the edge of the ticket is left smooth, thereby preventing the possibility of accidental detachment of any of the detachable portions opposite the numerals. It may be preferable in some instances to locate the apertures outwardly to ward the edge of the ticket to a greater extent than above described, as shown at 27 in Fig. 2. This method permits the formation of the apertures 27 in two adjacent tickets at the same time by the use of avery simple and inexpensive form of punch.
Although I have referred to my improved ticket, in the appended claims. as being formed of cardboard or the like, it .will be. understood that it may be formed of any suitable material which would be the substantial equivalent of cardboard and which would permit the operation of the ticket in practice as herein explained.
It will be understood that the particular form and arrangement of the elements of the ticket and the particular method of use described may be altered without departing from the spirit of my invention as defined by the appended claims.
I claim 1. A cashiers ticket formed of cardboard and having a row of numerals printed thereon, and a plurality of apertures thercthrough, adjacent to and outwardly from said numerals with respect to the adjacent lge of the ticket, one of said apertures bc ing located on a line substantially midway between each pair of successive numerals, whereby a detachable. portion is formed opposite each numeral.
