UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DANIEL VA. Monirz ANn wLILLIAM'J. PmnnsoN. oF m'cxEEsPonT, PENNSYLVANIA.
To allllfuilvzom` it may `(Janome/n.:
\ Be it known that we,.DAN1EL A. Monrrz @and WILLIAM J..PE`TnRsoN, citizens of the United States, and` residents of McKeesport,
in the county of Allegheny and `State of Fennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in `Vending-Machines; and
We do hereby declare the following tobe `a full, clear, and exact descriptionthereof.
Our `invention relates to a `vending machine, and more especially to a vending machine for vending sheets of paper to be api n plied towater-closet seats."
rotary plate,showing the separators andthe sheets offpaperyFig; `is a detail showing the separators Inl process of separating the sheet from` the pack; and Figs. 6,7 and aredetails.
The object of `our `'invention is to provide adevice in which `the sheets are compactly arranged, `and :when thecoln Is inserted 1n the `slot andthe lever` turned, a sheetis stripped from the pack and deposited on the seat, :thereby doing away with the necessity ofIplacingon' the `seat by hand.
` n the-drawings the` numeral 2 designates asuitable box or casing shaped generally to conform tothe shape of a closet-seat, and
madeof 4sheet "metal of proper thickness.
"4 provided with the nut5. u Theirame 3 is Within the casing `2 is the ovalframe 3.
whichis secured to E the casing 2 `by the bolt provided withthe bottom plate 6 secured in placeby thescrews'?.
1"lgrotary circular plate 8 is mounted on the bearing 9 of the screw 10 screwed into a seat11 inthebottom-plate 6. "TheplateS extends through the slots 12 in the frame 3 into the casing 2` asclearly shown in Fig. 3.
p 'fremder-face ofthe rim of the plate s is undercut atm opposite points which form flange like segments 13 and 14, (see Fig. 2),
and the upper face of the rim at opposite sidesis likewise cutaway to form flanges 15 and 16, (see Fig. 3).` The undercut portions 13 and 14 have secured theretogthe knives or separators 17. `The `front edges of said undercut portions` 13 and 14amay be beveled or sharpened to act in the same mani ner as said separators.
`formed in the top of the casing 2 and the p Specification of Letters Patent A `curved slot 18 is` vENnING-MAGHINE.

frame3, and through said slot passes the lever 2() which is secured to the rotary plate 8. f A coin-slot 21 is `formed in the casing 2 and frame 3, and inline with said slot is the coin-holder 22 mounted on the `weighted lever 23. This lever 23 is pivoted by the pin 24 to the lugs 25 on the plate 8. A swinging pawl 26 is suspended from the pin 27 in the lugs 28 on the frame 3, said pawl being in the path of movement of `the lever 23. `The pawl 26 is held` from movement in one direction by the cam- portion 2,9 which engages the inner face of the frame 3 as clearly shown in Fig. 6. This prevents the turning of the plate 8 until a coin has been inserted in the holder 22.V The` weight of v the coin in the holder lowers the forward end ofthe lever `23 and permits said lever topass under said pawl. `The plate 8 is provided with the opening 22*l through which thecoin passes when ejectedfrom the holder. Another paw] 3() is mounted on the pin 31 in lugs 32 on the under face of the frame 3, said pawl 30 like the pawl 26 being held by the cam-portion 33 'from moving in one direction. A spring 34 is connected to the `stationary irameBl and to the rotary member 8 which is adapted to return said member to normal position. 4
The sheets of paper 35 are compressed into a compact'package and are inserted in the space 36 formed between the casing 2 `Bisfround and the casing which forms the paper magazine is oval the only portions of the plate 8 which overlap the sheets are the flange " portions 15 and 16. The undercut portions 13 and 14 do not overlap the sheets when said plate is in normal position as shown in Fig. 1.
A coin-box 38 is secured to the bottomplate 6, and'an opening 39 permits the coin to pass from the coin-holder into said coinbox. I
The casing 2 has the hinge-portion 41 which adapts the device for connection to the ordinary closet'seat instead of the lid. When the coin is inserted in the Islot 21 it drops into the holder 22 and the lever 23 is lowered. The operator then moves the lever 2O in the slot 18. This turns the plate 8 and the lever 23 passes by the pawl 30. By the time the lever '20 has reached the end of its stroke, itengages with an abutment 20, and on being released the spring 34 returns the plate S to normal position. As said lever and the plate'8 start to move .back the coin strikes the lpawl 304 and is ejected from the coin holder and drops through the openings 22a and 39 intojthe coin-box.
YAYWhen, the plate 8 is Vfirst moved the knife edges 17 of the flanges 13 and 14 will enter between the sheets to separate one from the pack, and at the Sametime prevent the pack from falling out, for by the time the plate 8 Vmakes half a revolution the flanged portions 15 and 16 completely release the sheet to perm-it it to drop onto the seat.
In thisv manner each time a coin is inserted in the slot and the platev 8 turned, a
sheet is released and laid on the seat ready for use.y
vWhat We claim is:
1. InaA vending machine, the combination oit'Y an oval shaped casing, a like shaped frame in said casing, the walls of said casing and sai-d viframe forming a receptacle for a pack of sheets of paper, a rotary circular plate mounted lon said frame 'overlapping y said Asheets in said receptacle at opposite points, sheet separating members carried by said'- plate, and coin controlled mechanism for releasing said rotary plate, whereby when said plate is rotated a sheet is sepa'- rated from the pack and discharged from said receptacle.' Y

In a vending machine, the combination of an oval-shaped casing, a like-shaped frame in said casing, the walls oi said casing and irame forming a receptacle tor a pack of' sheets of paper, a rotary circular plate with portions of its rim at opposite points re` cessed and overlapping the sheets in said receptacle, recessed portions formed in the lower :tace of said rim ot said trame at opposite points having sharpened portions, a weighted lever on said plate, a coin-holder en said lever, a slot formed in said easing in register with said coin holder, and a stop carried by said iframe in the path ofi said lever and movable in one direction, whereby when a coin is inserted in said holder` and said plate rotated. said lever will pass below said stop to be rotated the desired distance.
G. In a vending machine, the combination of an oval-shaped casing, a like-shaped frame in said casing and formingwith said easing a receptacle for a pack of sheets of paper, a rotary circular plate mounted on said trame adapted to overlap the sheets at opposite points, separators carried by said plate, and coin controlled mechanism for releasing said rotary plate, whereby when a coin is inserted in said holder and said plate rotated said lever will pass below said stop to be rotated the desired distance.
