1 Application filed Ma'rch17, 1927. a Serial No. 176,073.
My invention relates to coin-operating dc vices and refers particularly'todevices of,
this character adapted for the sale ofcommodities. I The object of my invention is a device havinga plurality of compartments, each having a door capable of locked closure, the locking mechanism being released upon the insertion of a coin inorder to allow access to the com- 0 part-menu the compartments having a door which is not operated by the inserted coin but which is capableof being opened independently thereof. I
My invention,"tl1erefore, presents a device in which a plurality of commodities maybe contained, each in aseparate compartment, access to each commoditybeingaccomplished by the insertion of a coin in a: designated -slot,' or opening; and means whereby commodities may be introduced into the compartments without reference to a coin insertion.
In the particular form of the device of my invention shown in the-accompanying drawings, commodities may be introduced into the rear-of the compartments, while access to the commodities'upon the part of the pur-v chaser is through the forward part of the compartments, This construction allows of the device being placed within the space "formed by the so called Serve-a-Door? construction, that is within the space between a door opening into a room and a door opening into the public corridor, thus allowing the introduction of commoditiesfrom the corridor without disturbing the, occupant. of the room, and even if access tothe room is not possible; i
'My invention is directed to the particular mechanism incident to the production of the similar parts are designated by similar nu-.
morals.
Figure 1 is a top view of one formof the device of my invention;
Figure 2 is a front view of Figure 1 partly broken away for purposes of clearness of description.
'Figure 3 is a cross-section through line of Flgure 4. Y 1
and locked and the back open.
foregoing described operations and includes liigure 4 is a cross-sectionthrough line a a of Figure 3., with the front door closed Figure 5, is 'afview like Figure Q With the front door open and theback closed.
Figure'G is a iiragmenta'ry horizontalcross; section showing the operation incident to the insertion of coins of different diameter taken on the line 66 of Figure 4:.
. ,Theparticular form OfthGdGVICB of my invention shown in the accompanying drawings comprises, a casing having the sides 10,"
10, the front 11, the back 12, the top 13 and the bottom 14L Theback 12 is hingedly attached to the bottom Mat 15,15.
Fixedly attachedrto the bottom-:14 is a metal strap 16, carrying theupwardly extended supports 17-, 1-8, 19. LA revolublerod Qtipasses through openings in the supports l7; 18, 19 and carries a fixedly attached coin 21, 21, and the lower upturned edges 22,:22.
' herod 20 also carries a plurality of extend-v ed spaced pins 23, 23.1 Onecoin rest extends from the support 17 toward the support 18 245 is attached to the side wall 1.0 and the rod arm 25, tending to maintain the'coin rests in their upward position; Y r
A rod 26 extends through holes in the up r i M 1 rest which consists of a plurality ofbases per portions of the supports 17, 18 and19 and v V earriesa plurality of revoluble sleeves 27, 27.
Each sleeve '27 carries a fixedly attached coinoperating arm 28 and a fixedly attached returning arm 29, the latter-being attached by means of a spiral spring30 to a'rod 31 passing through holes in the supports 17,18 and '19, tending to pull the coin operatingarm 28 toward the front of the casing.
Pivotally carried by the coin operating arm 28 at 32 is a rocker arm 33 having the recess 34- and the extended member 35.- v
Fixedly attached to the rod 26 is a locking arm 36 having a-hook extremity 37'.
" Fixedly attached to the rod 26 is a closure I arm 38.
The operating mechanism comprises a link movement consisting of the link 39 fixedly attached to the revoluble rod 20 andpivotally attached at 40 to the link 41. The link 41 is pivotally attached to the angle link 42 at 43. Pivotally attachedtothe link 42 at44; is the r rod 45 extending through the casing front 11 and terminating in the knob 46.
Extending transversely of the device and above the rod 26 isa platform 47 having a plurality of upwardly extended walls 48, 48, thus forming a plurality of compartments 49. 49.
Hingedly attached to the casing front 11 is a plurality of doors 50, 50, each covering one of the con'ipartments 49, 49. Each door 50carries a locking hook 51 capable of move ment over a recess52 of the platform 47, when the door is in closed position. Each door 50 carries a frame 53 open at the top and capable of receiving a printed card 59. The extreme 50 is shown open in Figures 3 and 4.
A coin receiving slot 54 is positioned in the front 11 below each door 50, and a coin re turn opening 55 positioned beloweach door opens into a receptacle having the inclined bottom 56.
The hinged back 12 is attached to the upper part of the device by means of a chain 57 to limit the downward movement of the back and carries a lock 58 capable of locking the back in closed position.
Assuming that the doors of the device are closed, the operation of the device is as follows A coin of the proper size 60 is passed through a slot 54 and falls upon the base 21 and is held in position by the turned edge 22. The handle 46 is then pulled oiiltwardly operating the link movement 42, 41, 39 and revolving the bar 20. This movement brings the coin 60 in abutment with the coin operating arm 28, a further revolution of the bar 20 causing a revolution of the sleeve 27 moving the member 36 downwardly and releasing the hook 51 of the door 50 allowing the door to swing outwardly and allowing access to the compartment 49. This revolution of the sleeve 27 causes the rocker arm 33 to move downwardly, the spring 30 forcing the recess 34 to engage the bar 31 thus preventing the locking arm from upward movement into locking position. The same movement of the sleeve 27 causes the closure arm 38 to move downwardly the free extremity of which moves across the coin slot 54 and prevents the introduction of another coin until the door 50 is closed. The movement of the coin rest 21,
' rocker arm 33 is pressed downwardly and released'from the contact with the bar 31. The
I do not limit myself to the particular size,
shape, number or arrangement of parts as shown and described, as these are given simply for purposes of clearly describing the device of my invention. i
