UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE. v
MICHAEL J. CONNERY, F FARLEY, IOWA.
FUSE-DISPENSING CABINET.
Application filed September the like where handled in trade, thus male,
ing it difiicult for dealers to determine when the supply of fusesis low, and tediousness in 10. replenishment of said supply, as such fuses have to be carefully assorted accordingly to the sizes thereof, and a great number of containers required to receive and hold the same. Further, by reason ofthe kind of containers :t'orthe fuses in present day use it is impractical to display the latter.
. It is the aim of the present invention to provide a dispensing cabinet of the character specified, whereby the fuses will be convenicntly held assorted accordingly to the sizes thereof, and on display upon a show case or other support, it being understoodof course, that the cabinet in its form may be placed at any desirable location, either upon a shelf, 25. in or upon a show case or within a show window. The cabinet is portable and its ar-' rangement conduces to convenience and a saving of time forboth the salesman and the purchasing trade, as the fuses can be selectively removed singly corresponding to the size required by a purchaser.
Another aim of the invention, is the provision of a cabinetof this'character, wherein the fuses can be readily and easily placed within the respective ways incident to themake up of the said cabinet, eliminating all difficulties and disadvantages common to the usual box assortment under present day handling of these fuses, and at the same time af-, fording convenience in stock taking of such articles, and sales dlStI'lbLlblOllf 1 A further aim of the invention, is the provision of a cabinet of this character, which is extremely simple in construction, thorou hly reliable and eflicient in its purpose, light 1n weight yet strong, durable, and inex ensive to manufacture.
ith the foregoing and other aims or ob jects of the invention in view, the same preferably consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1, is a front elevation of the cabi- G, 1927. Serial No, 217,796.
net constructed in accordance with the inven-' tion.
a Figure 2, is an end elevation, the same being partly in section. a
Figure 3, is a sectionalview on the line 3-3 of Figure 1. i i I Figure at, is a sectional View 4-4 of Figure 1.
Similar reference characters indicate coron the line responding parts throughout the several views 1n the drawing. Referring to the drawing in detail, A, designates generally the dispensing cabinet, preferably comprising a base or bed plate 10, which in this instance is of elongated striplike form, having beveled front and end edges 11, and 12, respectively. Arranged upon this base or bed plate 10, is a plurality of dispensing or delivery spouts13, these being disposed side by side, but spaced the required distance apart from each other, and are forwardly curved with their outer ends closed, as at 14, while the other ends 15, are open and formed with an external rim 16.
The spouts 13, are supported in their upright forwardly curved position upon the base or bed plate 10, through the medium of front andrear brackets 17, and: 18, respec tively, these being a part of or separate from said base or bed plate, at the option of the maker of the cabinet i Beyond the plurality of spouts 13, uponthe base or bed plate 10, are vertically arranged tubiform posts 19, these supporting a removable top rail 20, forming a headpiece. This rail 20, is removably held in place upon the posts 19, by screw headed bolts 21, which are passed through the posts and have their lower ends detachably threaded at 22, into the base or bed plate 10. i e
The rail 20, has an elongated countersunk 23, formed longitudinally in its upper face, and opening through said rail into the countersunk 23, in vertical alignment with the upper open ends 15, of the spouts 13, are apertures or'holes 24, into which are removably fitted glass tubes 25, these having their lower ends detachably inserted in the upper open ends 15, of said spouts. The glass tubes constitute tubular cells or chambers 26, for the fuses 27, which are singly inserted therein through the upper open. ends of the tubes 25, when it is required to fill the same.
Formed in each spout 13, close to the outer end 14, thereof, and opening through the front of said spout is a dispensing slot 28,
the side edges of the latter being cutaway to eifect finger gaps 29, whereby a fuse within the spout confronting said slot 28, can be conveniently grasped by the thumb and first finger of the hand of a person for the easy and quick removal of said fuse from the spout through the slot, the gaps 29, being for the purpose of accommodating the tips of the thumb and linger for easily gripping the fuse and bodily removing it withoutendwise movement of the same, as will be clearly apparent. By reference to Figure 2, of the drawing it will be seen that the spout 13, is curved to present a true are, directed downwardly and outwardly, so that by reason oi? the length of the slot 28, and curved rear wall of said spout confronting the slot, will cause the fuse located at the slot to have contact with the spout at the extreme ends of the fuse and the major length of the latter will protrude through the slot for the easy and quick removal of said fuse without endwise movement of the same, the sides of the spout 13, being deeply cut into for increased exposure of the fuse at the slot 28.
It will be understood of course that the plurality of spouts 13, and their companion tubes 25, have cross-sectional diameters graduated correspondingly to the dillerent sizes of fuses to be contained'therein, and said spouts 13, are conveniently fitted with suitable means 30, serving as a scale or marker to visually indicate the sizes of the fuses within the cells or chambers 26, of the assortment stored within the cabinet.
The lowermost fuse 27, in each spout 13, is manually removed or extracted through the dispensing slot 28, whereupon the succeed ing fuses within this spout and tube will automatically lower to bring the next lowermost fuse of the seriesin confronting relation to said slot 28, for removal without endwise movement of the fuse, and this operation will be repeated until the entire number of fuses contained within the spout 13, and tube 25, has been dispensed.
It is optional with the maker of the cabinet A, whether or not it be equipped with a suitable back, there being none shown, and the same is contemplated within the scope of the invention, as well as other changes, variations and modifications falling within the terms of the appended claims.
In the use of the cabinet A, the-fuses will be displayed in a unique and attractive manner, and such fuses stored and handled conveniently, as inspection can be had easily and with dispatch.
IVhat is claimed is:
1. In a cabinet of the kind described, a support, a series of spouts arranged in a row in spaced relation to each other upon the support, each spout having a Closed lower end and an upper open end and also a forward elongated slot near the closed end of a length to permit free extraction of an article thcrce through without endwisc movement of the same, a head above the spouts, and tubes removably fitted in the head and telcscopcd in the upper open ends of the spouts.
Q. In a cabinet of the kind described, a support, a series of spouts arranged in a row in spaced relation to each other upon the sup port, each spout having a closed lower end and an open upper end and also having a forward elongated slot near the closed end of a length to permit free extraction of an article thcrethrough without cndwise movement of the same, a head above the spouts, and tubes removably fitted in the head and reinovably telescoped in the upper open ends of the spouts, the sides of the spouts being cutaway coincident with the slots.
3. In a cabinet of the kind described, a support, a plurality of dispensing spouts arranged vertically inspaced relation to each other on the support, each spout being forwardly curved at its lower portion with the lower end closed, the curved portion being slotted at the front of the spout and of a length to permit free extraction of an article therethrough without endwse movement of the same, glass tubes removably fitted in the upper ends of the spouts, means embracing the upper ends of the tubes, and connections between the said means and the support.
t. In a fuse dispensing cabinet, :1 spout having a delivery slot next to its lower end of a length to permit free extraction of an article therethrough without endwise move ment of the same, and a tubiform magazine engaged in the upper end of the spout. the spout being of downward and outward true are formation, to present. the article in corn fronting relation to the slot. and contacting only at its extremities with the spout with the major length of said article projected out.- wardly through the slot.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specilicationthis 30th day of August, 1927.
