COIN BANK OR BECEPTACLE.
Application filed m 11, 1925. Serial m. 29,393.
This invention relates to a coin bank or receptacle and its ejects are to provide a device of this character that is simple of construction, the same being made practically entirely of sheet metal stampings; that is particularly convenient of use, the closure locking in place when applied to the receptacle and moved or rotated slightly with respect thereto; that is practically immune from disorder and is very durable, there being no parts involved whichare of a delicate nature or which are likely to wear to any appreciable extent; and that is economical of manufacture on account of the fact that most parts are die stamped from sheet metal, as above mentioned, thus insuring accuracy of size and shapeand assurance of fit when the parts are assembled.
In the accompanying drawing, wherein the present preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated, Fig, is a plan view, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation, of our improved coin receptacle with the cover applied; Fig. 3 is a plan view of the receptacle with the cover removed; Fig. 4 is an inside view of the cover; Fig. 5 is a view, similar to Fig. .1, with a part of the face plate of the cover broken away to reveal the lock and interengaging parts of the cover and receptacle; and Fig. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary side elevation of the bank or receptacle with interlocking parts of the cover and receptacle shown in sectional detail. 7
The receptacle 1 may be of any desired '35 shape, the same being shown in the present instance as of a shallow cylindrical form.
An annular flange 2 extends inwardly from.
one edge of the cylindrical wall of the receptacle, and the same is provided with a co plurality of radially disposed tongues 3 that are equally spaced. apart about the circumference of, and are in the same plane as, the flange 2, as best illustrated in Figs. 3 and 6. The cover 5 is designed to fit over the open side of the receptacle and it has an annular depression 6 which fits within the opening defined bythe flange 2. The central portion 7 of the cover is in substantially the same plane as the edge portion 8, the latter 5o portion engaging the flange 2 when the cover is applied to the receptacle. outwardly beyond the portion 8 there is a peripheral head 9 that extends down over the adjacent edge of the cylindrical wall of the receptacle. Between the annular depression 6 and the aforesaid edge portion 8 is a shoulder 10, and within the zone of this shoulder the cover is provided with a plurality of arcuate slots 12 which correspond in number and position with the tongues 3 of the receptacle. The corresponding ends of-the several slots 12 are enlarged to provide openings 13 through which the tongues 3 may be projected when the cover is applied to the receptacle. After the cover is so applied, it may be turned with respect to the receptacle thereby to bring the tongues 3 within the restrictedends of the slots12. The cover is thus held to the receptacle until it is rotated in the reverse direction far enough to again register the tongues 3 with the openings 13. This is ordinarily prevented by a lock which we shall now describe.
Disposed within an enlarged part 6 of the depression dis a spring 15 which has one of its ends secured, as by a rivet 16, to the cover 5, while the opposite end of the spring is formed to constitute a latch bolt 17 arranged to engage the tongue 3 which'is projected through the slot 12 adjacent the bolt 17. A part of the spring 15 intermediate its ends is reduced considerably in width so as to make the spring more resilient at this point The end of the bolt 17 is beveled or inclined on one side so that when the tongue 3 is extended through the opening 13 and ismovedinto therestricted end of the slot,.the tongue will override the end of the bolt, the bolt snapping back of the tongue to prevent a reverse rotation of the cover.
A face plate 18 is applied to the cover and fits within the bead 9 thereof, and it is held to the cover by suitable means, as by the beforementioned rivet 16 which holds the spring 15 in place, and by a second rivet 19. The'face plate 18 is provided with a keyhole 20 through which a suitable key may be inserted, the inner end of the key being guided within an aperture 21 that is formed within the depressed part 6 of the cover. The key is of such design that when it is turned it will engage the portion of the spring 15 adjacent the keyhole and retract the bolt 17 in a well known manner thereby releasing the tongue 3 and allowing the cover to be rotated with respect to the re ceptacle' so as to bring all tongues into register with the openings 13 when the cover may be lifted from the receptacle.
Acoin slot 25 is formed in the cylindrical wall of the receptacle.
