Description
UNITED STATES PATENT ()rrron MORDECAI DISNEY, OF OAKLAND, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF HIS RIGHT TO HENRY C. KIBBEE, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN TlCKET-CLASPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 160,260, dated March 2, 1875; application filed May 18, 1874.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, MoRnnoAI DISNEY, of the city of Oakland, Alameda county, California, have invented a new and useful Improvement in TicketClasps, of which the following is a specification:
The object of my invention is to provide a simple and efi'ective means for holding railway-conductors checks, and to facilitate collecting the same.
The present plan is to put the check behind the hat-band or hand it to the passenger. In the latter case it is generally put in one'of several pockets.
In collecting the checks the conductor often finds the passenger sleeping, and in the confusion of sudden waking the passenger forgets where he placed the check, and the conductor is obliged to wait, only to the further confusion of the passenger, and often has to go on because the ticket cannot be found.
In order to have the ticket in a known fixed position, under the observation of the traveler, but not liable to be brushed or rubbed off, as when the holder is attached to the coat or vest, I construct a circular plate, D, having its center depressed, as shown in Fig. 2, and radial slots d d d, making a series of spring-catches. A A A. This spring-plate I then secure by means of a central screw, 0, to the side of car B. The outer edge is turned up, as shown, so that the outer edge 00 as does not bear against the side of the car, but the curve 3 does. This enables an easy insertion of the ticket, as will be readily seen.
This device, besides holding tickets, can be utilized for holding any necessary notification to passengers that certain seats are engaged.
Having seen many ticket-holding devices to be pinned to the coat and move about with the passenger, I do not, broadly, claim a ticketholding device; but,
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A ticket-holder consisting of the annular disk, having a flanged periphery, and being radially slotted and struck up into a convex shape, as set forth.
MORDEOAI DISNEY. Witnesses:
WILLIAM S. Bnnwsrnn, H. M. GRANDIN.
