rlhis invention relates-to banks ofthe character adapted for-the insertion ofl coins for the purpose-of saving, an object of the invention being toV provide abank-which` includes a musical apparatus-or'mechanisml controlled by the insertion of-` a coin, and adapted to operate for apredeterminedperiod'in a pleasingand attractive manne-r each time a coin is inserted.` Y
Another object ofthe invention is the provision of-a bank which', includes la spring-motordriven apparatus, normally held inactive, but-which, upontheinsertion-of a coin, will be released so that the motor will operate to actuatethe'apparatus, while at the expiration of a predetermined period'of operation,
the motor will be again held inactive.
With theabove andother-objects in view, the invention fur-ther includes thel following novel features and details of construction, to behereinafter moreA fully described, illustratedv in the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the appended claims.
Figure-1' is a plan view of' the bank.
Figure 2 is anl elevation with one of;` the side platesremoved'.
Figure 3 is, an edge view partly broken Figures 4e and`v 51 are sectionsL onV thelines 4 4 andl 5-,-5 of Figure 2with thepa-rts in theirA normally inactive position.
Figure 6 is a Viewsimilar-to Figure 5'1but showing acoin in position to releasethefmotor with the releasing means held: against return movement;
Figure 7 isa like view-showing the position of theparts when the coin is released'.
Referring to the drawings indetailwhereA in like characters of reference denotecorresponding parts, the reference'character 10 indicates a housing orA receptacle which is provided with av slot 11 for. theinsertion of coins after the manner ofithe usual savings bank.- The receptacle or. bank is dividedlby means of a partition 12 intoa coin compar-tl mentV 13v andv a compartment 14 withiny which is housed the .musicalapparatus and the controlling mechanism therefor. The'coin compartment 18 is provided with a bottom 15 1929. Serial: No, 352,880;
which is hinged-asatA 1 6 and this -hingedbottom is; normally heldin closed position by means of aiboltvor latch 17-whoseend--engages aflange518. Thebolt or latch 17 operates in guides-19 and-is providedwith a linger piece or stud'20whi'ch isoperable in a slot 21k provided in the-bottom 15. The-bottom-may-thus be normally held iii-closed position, but may be opened when desiredforthe removal' ofy the coins.
As previously sta-ted, the bank is provided with a normally' inactive motor driven musif cal apparatus which, upon` the insertion of; a coin, operates for ai predetermined periodi This apparatus is driven by a spring motor which-is positioned within a housing 22; and which-is provided with a finger piece orstem 23, whereby the motorrmayl bewound While this motor is shown as operatingfa musical apparatus, itl' iswithin the province of the present inventionto-actuateY an apparatusfof a dierent character, either musical ori-otherwise,`
The apparatus shown comprises a cylinder 23whichis mountedrupon ashaft 24 and whichA is provided. with radially disposed pinsy 25'. Arranged-inzthe-path offthe pins 2'5 are the teeth-26 'ofi a comb-like .member which is suitably vmounted as indicated at272 Obviously, when the cylinder isrotated', the pins 25A will engage the `teeth' 26 and cause-the latten to. vibratein-` the usuali well known manner'.
Mountedupon theshaft241 is agear 28. and a. pinion 29, the. latter` being engaged' and driven by a gearf 30 whichlis operatedby the spring motor 22. The gear 28 drivesa pinion 3), while fast upon the shaft with this pin,- ion isa gear 31. This. last mentioned gear drives a pinion 32 which is mountedl upon. a shaftl 33 and" this shaft; is.. geared toa shaft 34,V throughthe medium' of gearingl 35; The shaft. 'llis disposed.atzfrightangles with respectr to the shaft 33 andhas fast .thereon op-v positely extending blades 36' which provide controlling meansfor themotor. 22, asl will be hereinafter apparent..
Extending froml the. coin slot 11 isa coinl chute?, below. which-iis pivotally mounteda plateor blade 38whichis, arranged in; the
path of an inserted coin. Extending from this plate or blade is a crank arm 39 whose outer end is normally arranged in the path of rotation of the blades 36 and is yieldingly held in such position by means of a spring 40.
In Yorder to hold the crank arm 39 out of the path of the blades 36, the shaft 24 has secured thereon a cam 41. This cam is engaged by an arm 42 which is pivotally mounted as shown at 43 and which is provided with an angular end 44 which rides uponA the surface of the cam. The opposite end of the arm 42 has pivotally secured thereto the lower end of a bar 45 which is normally arranged in the position shown in` Figure 5 of the drawings; f The upper end of this bar is provided with an offset parallel finger .46, which together `with Athe bar, provides a forked end to receive the end of the crank arm 39,*w'hile the upper extremity of the arm 45. is provided with an inclined portion 47 Whicheguides the crank arm into the forked end of said arm 45 when the latter is moved upward from the position shown'in Figure `5 to the position shown in Figure 6. This upward movement is ellected by the angular Aextension 44 of thel arm 42 riding upon the high part of the cam 41, and as long as this extension 44 remains upon the high portion of the cam the crank arm 39 will be held Y out of the' path of the blades 36 so that Vthe musical apparatus will Aoperate under theinfluence of the spring motor 22.` When the angular portion 44 of the said arm 42 rides upon the low portion of the cam 41, the bar 45 will descend to release the crank arm so that the latter will be Yreturned to position in the path of the blades 36 by means of the spring40.- f
During the operation just described, the coin Y(whichis indicated atCV in Figure 6 of the drawings) will remain .in the position kshown'by contact with a stop 48. Thisv stop 48 is similar to the plate or blade 39 and is mounted for pivotal movement as shown at 49. The stop 49 is provided with an lextension 50vwhich is normally'located in the path of an inclined extension 51 provided atjpthe upper end of a vertically movable bar 52. This bar ispivotally secured to one end'of an arm 53 whichis pivotally mounted as shown at V 54 and which carries at .its opposite end an angular extension 55 which rides upon the periphery of a cam 56. This cam is similar to the cam 4l and acts to move the rod pivotally in onedirection, movement in an opposite direction being under the influence ofY a spring 57. The upperextremity of the bar 52 is provided with an inwardly disposed eX- Vtension 58 which is also adapted to engage the extension or lug 50 of the stop 48.
Upon the insertion of a coin, the latter will engage the blade 38 to rock the crank arm 39 suliciently'4 to move the same outof the path of the blades :36. The shaft S24 will then be operated under the vaction of the spring motor 22 whereupon, the bar 45 will be elevated to move the crank arm 39 sulficiently to release the coin which has been held by the blade 38. The coin will then drop upon the stop 48, the size of the coin however being sulicient to prevent the return ofthe crank arm 39 into the path of the blades 36 when the rbar 45 descends. Y
Continued rotation of the shaft 24 will elevate the bar 52 so that the inclined portion 51 of this bar will engage the lug 50 and rock the 'stop 48 upon its pivot. The coin Vwill then be released so that it will'fall into ,the coin compartment 13. As soon as the coin is released, the crank arm 39 will return into position in the path of the blades 36 to stopk theoperation of the motor. Previous to the return of the crank arm 39 however, the bar 52 will have descended so that the portion 58 will engage the lug 50 and return the stop in reserved to make lsuch changes as properly fall withinthescope of the appended claims;
Having described the invention what is claimed is :---l Y l. In a coin bank, a musicalapparatus,a spring motor operatively connected therewith, a motor controlling member, spring inluenced means normally engagedwith the controlling member and located inthe path of an inserted coin torelease said member when a coin is inserted and permit the motor to operate to actuate the'musical apparatus, a stop located in the path of the coin to hold'the latter in positiony and. prevent the return of the spring influenced means,
and means controlled by the operation of the motor to actuate the stop and release the coin at the expiration' of a predetermined period.
2.v In a coin bank, a musical apparatus,a spring motor operatively connected therewith, a motor controlling member, spring in iluenced means normally engaged with the controlling member and located in the path e of an inserted coin to release said vmember f when a coin is inserted and permit the motor to operate to actuate the musical apparatus, a stop located in the path of the coin to hold the latter in position and prevent the return of the spring influenced means, a longitudin'ally movable stop actuating member, and means controlled by the operation of the motor to operate the stop actuating member and releasethe coin at the expiration of a predetermined period.
