\ RECORDING APPARATUS.
. Application filed March 13, 1924 Serial No. 598,845. I
.This invention relates to recording apparatus and has for ts primary ob ect to, pro-' vide a very simply constructed apparatus for recording orders or sales in hotels,
restaurants or other commercial establishments.
It is another object of the invention to provide an apparatus of this kind in which both the individual sales records andthe checkers records are contained in locked compartments so that they cannot be changed. i
With the above and other objects in view, he invention consists inthe improved re-. cording apparatus and inthe torm,construction and relative arrangement of its several parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated'in the accompanying drawings, and subsequently incorporated in the subjoined claims.
In the drawings wherein I have illustrated one simple and practical embodiment of the invention and in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views;
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved recording apparatus; I
i Fig. 2 is a sectional perspective view taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
In Figure l of the drawings I have illustrated my apparatus as designed for use by fifteen salesmen and one. checker. As shown, a separate'recordingmeans is providcd for each] salesman. The checkers compartment is provided with two recording devices, one of which is for the entry of duplicate records and the other for the entry of comments or remarks in connection with the different sales. nism is housed within two separate casings herein designated as-99 and .100, each of which is hingedly mountcdas at 10l, 102, respectively, upon a'suitable base plate 21.. The front wall of each casing isprovided with a suitable lock, the lock for the casing of the salesinens recording devices 'being indicated at 1 and that for the checking compartment being indicated at 2. The key to these locks is in the possession of the proprietor, who alone can obtain access to the various records.
In use, the several salesmen must have the goods being sold by them properly checked and priced by the checker, the salesman then entering the prices on his particular record, and the checker copying theseveral items The entire mocha-Z andprices on his record. The record of the indiv dual salesman consists of a continu ous paper strip drawn from a roller past the opening 4 in thetop wall of the casing or housing, the number or other symbol of the individual or salesman being indicated. on the housingw'all asshown at13. 'lhe paper isted past and beneath said opening by the salesman actuating the wheel 5 which proects upwardly through slot in the casing wall. 'The upper portion of the opening is covered by a; glass 6, through which the.
entries inscribed onthe papersheetcan be read. However, after the entries have been made and the wheel actuated in one direction to'move the written entries beneath the glass plate 6,--the wheel 5 may. be locked against reverse n10vementby means not 7 shown so that the entries can not be changed. In each actuation of this wheel an alarm issounded which calls thecheckers attention to the fact that an. entry has been made. It is sometimesnecessary to supply the salesmen with duplicateorders. This is doneby the checker, whowma'kes the proper entries in the spaces on his recorder I as lndicated at 8,9, 10 and 11; The paper strip is drawn from the checkers compartment underthe opening 24z in the-top wall ofthe casing or housing 99 and beneath the bar 13 at the loweredge of saidopening.
This bar provides a knife edge so that the individual entries maybe torn off from the paper strip to be given to the salesmen. At the. same time a duplicate carbon record is made in the checkers compartment,
The checkers compartment also contains comments orremarks may be entered rela-' tive tothe various sales. *Thefront wall of the casing tor the salesmens records is provided with spaced ,openmgs18 and 19 and the wall of thecasing 99 with a'similar.
opening 20, whereby when said casings are unlocked, they may be readily lifted to an upright position upon their plate, as seen in Figure 2 of the drawings, so that access may be had to the several compartments forthe insertion of new paper rolls therein an. additional recording means similar to l thatprovided in each ofthe salesmens conipa-rtments, the paper strip beingdrawn from p after the records have been-removed at the end of the days business. As illustrated in Figure 2 ofthe drawings, the bottom wall or plate 103 of each compartment is hinged for movement with respect to the spaced partition or dividing walls and isjh el d; in closed position by suitable latch bolts 23.
'As shown in Figure 2 of the drawings, paper rolls and 26 are mounted in one section of the checkers compartment, rotating. loosely on shafts 85 and 96 respectively said rolls providingoriginal and duplicate copies, and a spool '27 for the carbon copy is also. arrangedin, said compartment :upon
which the carbon copy is wound. These severalrolls are mounted in a suitable supportlng rame 28, the several roller shafts being removably mounted in this frame.
In each waiters or salesmans compartment," as shown inFigure 2, there is carried upon the hingedly mounted bottom wall thereof apaper roll 31', the paper strip being unwound from-saidroll'and re-wound upon a suitable spool 32.- 'This paper roll and the spool are carried by-shafts removably mounted in suitable frame supports '33.
:To operate the deviceeach waiter manipulates the wheel 5 ofthe paper roll 81 as signed to him whenever he'has to make an entry. 7 Any suitable device such as'a pawl and .rachetmay be employed to prevent re-. verse rotationof each ofthe wheels 5 and any kind of an'alarnimay be employed to direct the checkers attention to thefact that rolls are unwound. together.
an entry has been made by one of the salesmen.
The checkers"compartment is provided with a crank 50 to. turn the shaft 96 and cause the paperroll 26 to be unwound. This shaft 96 will be connected by gearing to the shaft of the other roll 25 so that the two" The strips of paper as they are unwound from the rolls 26 and 25 are'eaused to be moved with a sheetof, copying paper or carbon manifold.
paper between. them; this copy paper being "supported in any suitablemanner. The paper from the roll25 canpass to-the outside of the, casing 99 and be torn off along the edge of the part 13, while the paper from the roll 26 afterreceiving a'copy of whatever is written on the paper from the roll 25,"is wound upon the roll" or spool 27. This spool 2:may be actuated by suitable gearing (not fshown) and the shaft 96 mayhavea pawl verse rotation. I v
on top of the carbon manifold 62 and the paper from the roll 26 being under it,
7 From the foregoing description considered in connection with the accompanying draw-- ings, the construction, advantages and manner of operation of the device will be readily understood. It. will be seen that I have provided a recording apparatus which will be derstoodthat the device is. susceptible of more or less 'modificationin. the form, construction and relative arrangement of the several parts, and I accordingly reserve the privilege of. adopting all such legitimate The loop 62 passes between a pair of rolls x 66. along with the paper from both the rolls '25 and 26'; the paper from the roll 25 being changes in the form, construction and rela- 4 tivearrangement of the several parts as may be fairly embodied withln, the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
jlclaim: V I
1. In a recording apparatus, a base, a casing hingedly connected thereto, a bottom wall hinged to the casing independently of the base and adapted to constitute a support for mechanism 'withinthe casing. and latchmeans to hold said bottom wall in ic'losed' position when the casing is swung away from the base.
2. In a recording-apparatus, a base, a casing hingedly connected thereto, a bottom wall hinged to the casingindependently of the base and adapted; to constitute a support for mechanism within the casing, and means for locking the casing upon thebase to prevent access to the interior ofthe casing.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name hereto.
