DIAL TELEPHONE LOCK Filed out. A22, 192e Patented Sept. 30, 1930 UNITED STA-TES PATENT OFFICE j i FLORENCE n.1 MAGARTHY, or MARYsvALE, UTAH DIAL-TELEPHONE Loox i Application filed. October 22, 1928. Serial No. 314,250.
This invention relates to locks for preventing the Vuse of telephones for outgoing calls where the telephones are provided with dials.
A The invention comprises a padlock adapted 5; to interlock with the dial plate so as to prevent the turning of the dial far enough to register a call.
l An embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in
10, which 1liI lock.
Figure l represents a plan view of a tele- 'phone base equipped with a dial and lock. Figure 2 is a side view, and 1 Figure 3 is a perspective view of the'padlock being presented in the position shown in dotted lines in Figure l. In this position the Y arm 7 can be slid under thefouter rim of the in the dial, for example, the one designated y M. N. O., the location of thebolt 5 in the look being such as to prevent the lock being moved either forward or back. The lock thus becomes a rigidpart of the dial. y' The arm 7, projecting as it does beyond the periphery of the dial, is made long enough tov impinge againstthe supporting column 2 when an attempt is'made to turn the dial', and by thus interfering with the free turning of the dial, it
allowed to'pass down into the hole.V The lock l acts as a stop and prevents the dial fromfunctioning. While I have shown the stop member v7 as impinging against the column 2, it is evident that any other projection may be used to interfere with its free motion.l `It will. be noticed thatwhile the lock presents ameans Y of preventing the use of the telephone for outgoing calls, it nevertheless interferes in no way with the receipt of incoming messages.
