Ticket Stamps.

LEONARD J. BLADES, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN TiCKET-STAMPS.
A Specification forming part of Letters lPatent No. 165,702. dated July 20, 1875; application filed June 9, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, LEONARD J. BLADES, of Boston, in the county of Sutt'olk and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Ticket-Stamp, ot' which the following is a specifica-tion:
This invention relates to improvements in stamps for use in railroad and other offices; and consists in a combined tipping or pressure and hand-stamp for dating both coupon and local tickets 5 also, in the combination, with a strike and pressure stamp, of a guide forlocal tickets and for coupon tickets, whereby either can be readily canceled by the same stamp.
Figure l represents a vertical section of the stamp on lines x, Fig. 2. Fig. 2 represents a front viewof the stamp, and Fie'. 3 a' partial section representing the devices for-changing dates. Y
ln the drawing, a is the base of the stamp and b the frame, ot' suitable shape, size, and material. The frame b-has pivots or journals o, which are borne up against bearings c in the base a, and the frame is, preferably, made in the form represented in the drawing, and
has an opening, d, in its face, with side guides e for the insertion of stift' local tickets. At right angles to this local opening, e, is a slot, f, for the admission ot' a thin coupon ticket, the tops of the guides e, serving as a support for the coupon, its edge being guided by the back g ot' the case. The bed-plate h ot' the stamp is pivoted to the base a at t', and at a point in advance of the pivot of the frame b, and the bed-plate is'incased within the eXterior frame b. The lower end oil the bed-plate rests against a spring, j, the tendency of which is to throw it and the frame into the position shown in full lines, Fig. l, and in such position the bed-plate'is so placed with relation to the platen L that the ticket-receiving openings d j' are free to receive tickets. This spring j also holds journals c up against bearings c. Ihe types to be used are placed on the roller Z, over which passes a ribbon, m, passingfrom rollers n and operating in connection with inking apparatus in a well-known manner. Instead ot' the roller for printing, I may use type and inking apparatus in any other Well` known way. In Fig. 3 I show the method I prefer to employ when I use a roller. The main axle o carries at each end a wheel provided with iigures. About this axle is a sec ond tubular axle, having at each end a wheel resting next the wheels on axle o, and in this way, with four tubular axles, it is possible to stamp the months, and any combination of four figures which will give the day ot' the month and the year. The wheels outside are the same as those inside the frame, except that the characters are reversed, and by the outer wheels the inner ones may be readily adjusted.
Assuming the stamp is in its normal position, and as in full lines, Fig. l, it' it is desired to stamp a local ticket, the same is inserted in the Haring mouth or opening d, and by the action ot' the stiff ticket on the back ot' the frame, or by pressure of the hand or tin ger against the side ot' the frame b, the stamp is tipped or rocked to the position in dotted lilies, the motion ot' the stamp and action of the spring j acting' to cause the trame and bedplate h to move with relation to eacn other, and to cause the typewheel or other printingsurface to approach the platen k, which action makes the desired impression on the ticket. It it is desired to stamp a coupon ticket made ot' thin paper, composed of a number of connected tickets, the side of the strip ot' tickets is introduced into the opening f, and the hand is struck on the hand-knob or projection p, over the platen 7c, and at the,top of theframe, the blow so struck causing the frame b to descend against the action of' the spring, the journals o leaving their bearings c', against which they are pressed from below, andthe platen then approaches the type carried by the bed-plate, and makes the desired mark. A lug, q, prevents the frame from turning too far back.
I do not desire to limit this invention to the use of the particular spring j, shown, or to the particular construction ofthe stamp-trame and bed and platen, whereby the stamp is adapted to rock or tilt, or to move by a downward blow, ,as an ordinary handstamp, for the construction may be departed from without departing from my invention. The stamp acts as ahandstamp when struck by the hand on tlxehandle p, and then the traine slides or moves longitudinally, and as a tippingstanip when pushed at the side. Instead ot' printingWit-h ink, I may use type to pret'orate the letters and dates.
I claim- 1. A stamp slotted to receive the tickets as set forth and arranged, to print when tipped, and to operate also as a strike-stamp, substantially as set forth.
2. The frame of the combined strike and pressure sta-nip provided with the opening` d, having side guides, and with an opening, f, adapted to receive both local and coupon tickets to be canceled, substantially as described.
3. In a hand-stamp a pivoted frame, and a bed or carrier for the type, combined with a LEONARD BLADES.
