Patented Aug. 26, 1919.
Application filed March 26, 1919. Serial No. 285,886;
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GFDRGE SMITH, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at London, England, have invented new and useful Improvements in Money- Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
The'present invention relates to money boxes of the kind which are set to receive a given number of coins of the same denomination and are not intended to be opened until the desired complement of coins is made up. n I 1 The applicants immediate object in'view is to produce a box for the collection of 15/6 the cost of a war savings certificate, in sixpences, but itis obvious that the dimensions and general arrangement of the box may be made suitable for the collection of. coins of any desired value and to any number that may be selected.
The box which forms the subject of this application is a circular one, having the coin carrier operated by the rotation of the cover. The coin carrier may, however, be operated by the tail ofa lever protruded through a slit in the side of the box.
In the accompanying drawings, which (as filed in the U. S. Patent Office, are twice the, actual size), I have shown a box constructed according to my invention intended for the collection of 15/6 for a war savings certificate.
Figure 1 is a; horizontal section of a round box just below the top of the lid showing the parts in p'os'tion to receive the coin. Figs. 2 and 3 are similar views showing respectively the parts in position to move the counting disk after the reception of the coins and to be opened by a key when the box is full.
Fig. 4 is a vertical section of the box showing the means for retaining the cover until the time for release arrives, certain parts of the apparatus being omitted.
Fig. 5 is a part plan view ot'the body of the box.
Figs. 6 and 7 are an inverted plan and edge view of the coin carrier detached.
Figs. 8 and 9 are plan and edge views of the late fixed in the lid of the box.
Fig. 10 is a detail plan View of the box! being unlocked by a detachable key.
Fig. 11. is a part plan" showing the ar the win at the appropriate time.
ganlgement of the figures on the counting Fig. 12 is a view similar to Fig. 3 with the difference that unlocking is efiected automatically. p v
In a circular box embodying my invention, the lid 1 contains the mechanism and the body of the box 2 is' the receptacle for the coins passed into it by the mechanism arranged in the lid.
The lid 1 and its contents will first be described in connection with the key opened box shown in Figs. 1 to 11. a is the counting disk bearing numbers corresponding with ratchet teeth by which the disk is rotated step b 1 step on the insertion of every coin. This isk a isprovided with a tubular axle or}, see Fig. 4, on which it turns and the axle c has lugs 11? by which it can be turned by hand to set the box (before initially closing the same) according to the complement of the coins.
The axle a is inserted in a central hole 6 in a plate 1) (shown detached in Figs. 8 and 9) I which is held in any convenient way in the lid of the box. This central hole has a turned up edge I)? and the plate has also a turned up e ga 12 all around. 6 is an opening near the edge through which a coin inserted through a slot d in the edge of the lid can fall into the box when carried around into the proper position by the coin carrier 0 in the manner hereinafter explained. b is a small hole in-the plate I) and b is a segmental slot extending from .it beneath an overhang b extending for about one third of the circumference. b is asmall piece struck up from the plate b, b, b and j are pieces similarly struck up the object of which will presently appear. The coin carrier 0 (showndetached in Figs. 6 and 7) has a central hole which drops on to the turned up ed e b of the central hole I; of the plate I). t has a recessed portion or pocket e to receive the coin passedin through the slot d in the edge of the lid. n is a spring like tongue to aid in ejecting e is a; turned ove'r lug at the edge of the coin ref cesse to ,overlie the coin. c is an incision at the' edge of the recess into which the projecting tail 0 of the push piece 0 carrying' the pawl 0 is able to Igoject when no com is in the recess: fis a s ield carried by the .com carrier is turned relatively .7) to its full extent, that is, until coin carrier 0 which covers the coin slot rl when the coin carrier 0 is moved. 0 is a turned over lug depending from the coin carrier the ofiice of which is to anchor the coin carrier to the body 2 of the box and assist in the attachment of the lid. 72. is a projection on the carrier which comes into operation against a retaining pawl g to fix the carrier when the counting disk a indicates that the complement of coins has been reached and the retaining pawl 9 falls into the deep tooth 'i in the counting disk a (see Fig. 3).
The push piece 0 is mounted radially to turn on the turned up edge 5 of the central hole I) of the plate I). The pawl 0 carried by the push piece 0 engages the teeth of the disk at and ratchets it around step by step when operated after the insertion of every coin. To prevent backward movement of the disk a the retaining pawl g is employed. This pawl g is fitted inside the upturned edge 6 of the plate and is secured thereto preferably as follows:
The pawl g is attached to a limb g the endof which is inserted between the upstanding lug b and the edge 6 of the plate I). k is a catch turned down from the limb g and protruding through a hole in the plate I). This catch is serves to retain one side of the lid Z of the box by engaging the underside of the inwardly projecting flange Z on the box body (see Figs. 4 and 5), on the upper edge of the body of the box. The attachment of the lid to the body is completed by the lug 0 on the coin carrier above referred to, the bent end of which lug is inserted in a slot Z in the box body.
To assemble the parts the coin carrier 0 is placed in the plate I) and the turned over lug c is dropped through the small square hole 6 near the edge of plate I), placing the turned up edge (forming the shield 7) under turned over portion 6 of ,plate 6 allowing the central hole of the coin carrier to drop over turned up edge 6 in the center of plate 6. The edge of the coin carrier is pushed under the small struck up portion j of the plate (see Fig. 3). This done, the to the plate the position of the coin carrier is changed from the position appearing in Fig. 3 to that appearing in Fig. 1 where the notch in the carrier is up against the stop 6.
The push pawl piece 0 is then fitted by placing one end under pressed up portion b of plate 5 and dropping the other end over turned up edge 6 of center of plate. The axle a of the counting disk a is now dropped into the center hole of the plate, allowing the locking pawl g to engage in the extra deep tooth '5 previously mentioned and the push pawl 0 to engage in the tooth nearest to it.
The plate containing all the pieces is then ready to be placed in the lid and fixed.
To close the box after setting the counting disk which can be rotated by the In a projecting (on the underside of the p ate) the turned over lug 0 of the coin carrier 0 is placed in the small slot l of the box and when the top side of the lid opposite the lug 0 is pressed down the locking catch Z: engages under the turned over portion l of the box, and the lid becomes fastened.
To operate the box the coin carrier is brought by turning the lid of the box into the position shown in Fig. 1, the coin is then inserted in the slot d and the lid is again turned relatively to the box. This brings the coin lying in the recess e against the tail o of the pusher 0 and moves it so as to press the pawl 0 against a tooth of the disk a and turn the latter one tooth; on the completion of this movement the coin reaches the hole 5 in the plate 6 and falls into the box. If the lid and coin carrier are turned when no coin is in the latter no movement of the disk at follows as the tail 0 of the pusher 0 enters the incision e in the recess 6 and no pressure is therefore imparted to the pawl 0. The operation is re eated' until the deep tooth 2' reaches the paw g which is opposite the zero on the disk which can be seen through a window in the lid. To open the box a key m, see Fig. 10, is inserted through a hole in the edge of the lid and introduced behind the limb g of the retaining pawl 9 so as to push the limb laterally and disengage the catch is from the over hang Z on the box body.
Fig. 12 shows an automatic release for opening the box. In this arrangement the deep tooth 2' allows the retaining'pawl which carries the catch is to move inward and thus bring the catch from beneath the overhang Z thus releasing the lid. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 12 it will be observed that there is no separate pusher 0 the pawl 0 being mounted on the coin carrier. The pawl "0 in this case is guided by an irregularly curved cam slot ;0 which allows the pawl to engage a tooth of the disk a at the completion of its movement and thus prevents the operation of the disk more than one tooth. The shield on the coin carrier above mentioned prevents the insertion of a second coin before the carrier has delivered the coin already introduced.
What I claim is 1. In a circular money box, a substantially circular coin carrier, means for pivotally anchoring the coin carrier at about its center to the box body, means for rotating the coin carrier relatively to the lid, a counting disk, a pawl adapted to engage with the said disk, a pawl attached to the lid adapted to act as a detent for preventing backward movement of the disk, a catch connected with the last named pawl, and means on the body of the box for engaging the catch so as to cooperate with the anchoring means of the coin carrier to retain the lid on the boX.
2. In a circular money box, a disk shaped coin carrier, means for pivotally anchoring the coin carrier to the box body, means for rotating the coin carrier about its center relatively to the lid, a counting disk, a pawl adapted to engage with the said counting disk, a pusher piece carrying said pawl adapted to be acted upon by the coin, a pawl Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the attached to the lid ada ted to act as a detent for preventing bac ward movement of the counting disk, a catch connected with the last named pawl, and means on the body of the box for engaging the catch so as to cooperate with the anchoring means of the coin carrier to retain the lid on the box.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name this 28th day of February 1919.
