CHANGE-HANDLING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 22, 1921.
iippiiciiiimn` inea March 4, 1920. sei-iai Nn. 363,305.
Be it known that I, .IoHN Kornoiir, a citizen et the United States, residing at Mason City, in the county ot' Cerro Gordo and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Change- I-Iandling Devices, ot which the following is a specification.
rIhis invention relates to the coinholding art and has for its object the provision ot a device adapted tor usein banks, stores, or any place where money is handled and change made, whereby change in the torni ot' coins may be readily delivered into the hand of a person, thereby obviating the tedious process ot picking up the coins from the counter.
An important and more specific object is the provision et a device of this character in the forni of an open ended box` lia-ving a pivoted platform in its top upon which the a dejending weight ior holding it iii normal position and movable by the lingers oit a hand inserted into either end of the device whereby to tilt the platform and cause coins thereon to slide oil .into the hand.
An additional object is the provision et a device of this character which will be simple and inexpensive in manufacture, highly efficient in use, neat and attractive in appearance, durable in service, and a general improvement in the art.
With the above and other objects and advantages in view, the invention consists in the details ot construction to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and il lustrated iii the accompanying' drawings iii which- Figure 1 is a plan view, t
Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal sectional view,
Fig. 3 is a central cross sectional view, and
Fig. l is a plan view showing a modilied forni.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, the numeral 10 designates a easing ot box-like formation, open at both ends. This casing may be constructed ot any suitable material, ordinarily metal, but it desired,
e l might be termed oit glass. rI he top- 11 ot this casing is provided centrally with an opening 12 which may be ol any desired shape but which inay conveniently be rectangular, as shown in Fig. 1. Secured slightly coins are deposited, the platform carrying within this opening `is a guard flange 1B formed as a strip secured in place by any suitable .means and this flange extends` l tray is mounted a depending plate 15 formed with lugs 1G secured to the tray.
This plate extends transversely ot the casing and has its upper corners formed with trunnions 17 journaled through the sides of the casing whereby the tray and plate will be pivotally mounted as a unit. Adjacent the plate the lower portions ot the flanges 13 are cut away to provide shoulders 18 engageable by the plate tor limiting movement thereof.
The plate 15 provides means whereby the tray or platform may be moved, and to facilitate the manipulation, the plate is formed with or carries a weight 19 provided on its opposite sides with concavities 20.
In the operation ot the device the person making change places the coins upon the tray or platform 14,the guard llange 13 pre venting them `from slippingl otf. The tray is preferably concave so that coins placed thereon will tend to dispose themselves at the center. The person to receive the change inserts his hand through the open end of the casing 10 and engages his lingers against the concavity or depression 2O in the weight 19 and presses against the weight which will result in movement oit the parts into the position shown by dotted lines in Fig. 2. As the tray is thus tilted it will he apparent that the coins thereon will slide oit into the palm ot the person receiving the change. When the hand is then removed the weight 19 will return the tray to normal position. It is preferable, though not necessary, that the ends of the casing 10 be cut away, as shown at 21, so that the hand may be more easily inserted without engaging against the edge. It will he obvious that both ends of the device are the `same so that an error being made iii making change the person making the change may insert his hand within his end et the casing and recover the coins.
In Fig. 4 I have shown a slightly inedied form. In this form the structure is the same except that the guard lange 13 claim:
'VWill not depart from the spirit of 'the in'- vention or the scope of the subjoined claims. Having thus described my invention, I
l. A device of the character described comprising an open ended easing provided in its vtop With an opening, a guard flange surrounding said opening, a platform pivoted Within and filling said opening, a plate secured to and depending from said platform, and a Weight on said plate, said Weight being provided at opposite .sides with finger engaging depressions.
2. A device of the character described comprising an open ended casing provided in its top with an opening, a guard flange Within said opening and extending above and below the top, a platform disposed Within the confines of said flange, a plate secured to and depending from said plutform at its center, trunnions on the upper corners of said plate journaled within the sides Vof the casing, said plates being weighted, and said fiange below the top being out away adjacent the plate and engageable thereby to limit swinging mord ment thereof.
In testimonyv whereof I hereto aflix my signature.
