EDWARD S. PEER, OFLOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA,
SAFETY DEPOSIT RECEPIACLE.
I Application filed April 9,
My invention relates to safety deposit receptacles of the character embodled n my. United States Patent, No. 1,634,884,1ssued- July 5, 1927, by Which one is, able to protect ones valuables against theft, particularly when traveling in a train or other public conveyance.
It is a purpose of my present invention to provide in a safety deposit receptacle 1 0 an improved form of means for attaching the receptacle to wall brackets such as are used on railwa cars for supporting card tables, and which is characterized by its adaptability to securely attach the receptacle to various types of wall brackets.
I will describe only one form of safety deposit device embodying my invention and will then point out the novel features in claims. 7 I
In theaccompanying drawings: i Fig. 1 is a view showing in front elevation one form of safety device receptacle embodying my invention in applied position to one form of wall bracketwith the closure mcm ber of the receptacleremoved;
' Fig; 2 is a vertical sectional view of the receptacle and wall bracket shown in Fig. 1 with the closure member in applied posi tion to the receptacle; 7 p
F ig- 3 is a fra mentary view 'showingm front elevation e ,handlefor the closure member; I
' Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the stationary attaching arm embodied in the receptacle shown in Figs. 1 and 2;
Fig.5, is a detail perspective view of the movable attaching arm shown in Figs. 1 and 2; and
Fig. 6 is a detailperspective view of the wall bracket shown in Fig. 2. p I
Similar reference characters refer to similar parts in each of the several views.
Referring specifically to the. drawings, my invention in its present embodiment com- 45 prises a box B formed of metal or any other suitable material'with one side thereof open but adapted to be closed by a closure member C. The rear or opposite side of the box is provided with a slot or opening 15 having an end extension 15 shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, and through this slot attaching means is adapted to be extended by which the box is capable ofbeing attached to any one of a plurality of different forms 1928. Serial No. 268,741.
of wall brackets, such as are used in Pullman cars for attachingcard tables to a wall of the car. The attaching means comprises a stationary attaching arm shown in'detail in Fig. 4 as constructed from a plate of metal having anelongated portion 16, and a main; body portion 17 ,both of which are riveted or otherwise secured to the inner sides of the box at a point above the slot 15 as shown in Fig. 2. The body portion 17 is curved so as to extendoutwardly and ,upwardly'in the form of a hook through. the slot 15 at the upper edge of the latter, and the free horizontal edge of the curved body isrecessed as indicated at 18. The construction of this attaching arm is such that it is adaptable to many types of wall brackets, the recess 18 accommodating a projection on the wall bracket in a manner to permit the application of the arm tothebracket as will be described morefull-y hereinafter. Q Y The attaching meansalso includes a, movable arm which, as shown in detail in Fig, 5, comprises a U-shaped head 19, the free ends of the parallel portions of which are provided with their reduced and bent ex; tensions constituting hooks 2O which, in the applied position of the arm .as shown in Fig. 2, are adapted to extend through the slot 15 a for engagementwith a wall bracket. .The loweredge of the head 19 is lipped as indig5. cated at 21 in order that the heady as a whole may be properly spaced from the back wall of the box. Extending downwardlyfrom this edge is a flat shank 22proyided with a slot 23. The shank is adapted to slide 9 Within a recess or depressedportion .24; in the back wall of the box as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and a screw-threaded stud 25 secured within the back box wallyextends through the slot 23 and" has thereon aqnut 26 which is adapted to be manually rotated by means of a pivoted handle 27 to clamp the shank against movement. The head 19 can be moved vertically to adjust the position of the hooks 20 within. the slot 15, and to 0 26 for the reception of the ends of a locking pin 29 which is adapted to be extended through an opening in a stud. The pin is provided for the purpose of locking the nut in clamping position with respect to the shank 22 so as to preclude loosening of the nut and a consequent releasing of the attaching arm in respect to a wall bracket and the subsequent removal of the box from the bracket.
The closure member C is removably titted within the open side of the box and is adapted to be locked in closed position by a suitable lock contained in a closure K. To facilitate handling of the closure member a handle 30 is provided with a right-angle extension 31 pivoted within suitable ears 32 at the inner side of the closure member, such extension projecting through an opening in the cover member as shown in Fig. 2. The outer side of the closure member is recessed as indicated at 34; to receive the end of the finger in a manner to permit it to be ex tended beneath the handle 30 and to thereby move the handle outwardly to a horizontal position in removing the closure member from the box.
In the present instance I have shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 6 a typical form of wall bracket, and as shown in detail in Fig. 6, this bracket is provided with a slot 35, the upper edge of which isformed with a depending extension 36 designed for the purpose of coacting with a table bracket for securing the latter to the wall bracket. The wall bracket is shown in Figs. 1 and 2 as applied to a wall, and in practice the box .may be secured to the wall bracket by first removing the closure member 0 to gain access to the nut 26. Assuming that the pin 29 is removed from the nut and stud, by means of the handle 27, the nut can be rotated to release the shank 22 thereby permitting vertical adjustment of the head 19. In actual practice the head 19 is adjusted upwardly until the parallel portions are in overlapped relation to the body portion 17 of the stationary arm, thus bringing the two attaching arms in such close relation as to permit both of them being extended into the slot of the wall bracket. Vith the members 17 extended into the slot, the box is moved upwardly until such member abuts the upper edge of the slot 35 when, by adjusting the movable attaching arm downwardly until the hook members 20 engage the lower edge of the slot 35, the box may be attached to the bracket. By manipulating the nut 26 to securely clamp the shank 22 against vertical movement, the movable attaching arm can be locked in bracket-engaging position thereby locking the box as a unit to the wall bracket.
If it is desired, the pin 29 can now be extended through the stud and into the recesses of the nut for securing the nut in clamping position. By now applying the closure memberand looking it in closed position, the nut is no longer'accessible to release the movable attaching arm from the wall bracket and consequently the receptacle cannot be removed from the wall bracket ex cept by removal of the closure member.
Although I have herein shown and described only one form of safety deposit device embodying my invention, it is to be understood that various changes and modifications may be made herein without de parting from the spirit of the invention and the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
I claim: 7
