IlVlPRCVEli/iENT iN RECQRDENG AiF'RTUS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. ,i, dated August l, 1876; application tiled June 16, 1876.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, ANDREW A. ANDER- SON, 0t` Pittsburg, in vthe county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Registering Devices for Recording Sales, Sac.; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to-the accompanying dra-wing, forming part ot' this specification, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of the face of the register. Fig. 2 is an elevation of one side, showing the mechanism for feeding the transfer-ribbon and check-strip. Fig. 3 is an elevation of the opposite side, showing the alarm mechanism. Fig. 4 is a vertical section on the line y y, Fig. 1, showing the arrangement ot' rolls for carrying the record-stri p.
Like letters refer to like part-s wherever they occur.
My invention relates to that class of regis tering devices employed for recording sales, registering shipments of goods, and for like p purposes, and is especially adapted for use where it is desirable to guard upon the part of employs.
I will now proceed to describe my invention, as illustrated in the accompanying dra-wing, so that others skilled in the art may apply the same.
A indicates the frame sustaining the mech` anism. Ylt is composed of two v uprights, a a, in which are ]'ournaled the rollers ot' the recordfstrip. b is the record-st'rip,which is wound upon primary or dispensing roller c, and passes thence over a slet or bar, d, secured to the uprights ca at convenient height, and opposite a suitable opening in the inclosingcase. c e1 are a pair ot' feed-rollers, which receive the recordstri p after it has passed over bar d, and are preferably covered with rubber, as shown, but may be plain wooden or metal rollers. The roller e has upon one end ot' its shaft a hand-wheel, j', or crank, by means of which it is turned, and a beveled pinion, g, for communicating power to the check-strip mechanism, and upon the opposite end of its shaft is a pulley, le., for driving the final or receiving roll of the record-strip, and a ratchet-wheel,
to pree. The
against fraud z', with which a dog, k, engages, so as vent any reverse movement of roller the final roll of the series,
roller e1 is driven by friction. 7; represents and is the one which receives the record-strip L' after it has passed the feed-rolls. As this roll must be driven at a gradually-decreasing speed on account of its gradual increase in diameter, I secure 'to the shaft a pulley, l, and drive the roll bymeans of a belt, m, so that when the tension of the recordstrip becomes too great the belt m may slip, and thus obviate the tearing' of the strip. The same result may, ifpreferred, be accomplished by friction-pulleys.
On one ot' uprights c I secure aV gong, u,
and hammer o, the latter provided with a spring, p, and stop r, and actuated by pins s upon pulley lr. rlhe arrangement and number of pins s will be regulated bythecircumference of roll e and the space through which the record-strip is to move. For instance, in the drawing I have shown two pins because the circumference of the feedroll e is such that one half-revolution feeds the record-strip the required distance; consequently the pins s are arranged to actuate the hammer and sound an alarm at each half-revolution ot' the feed-roll. This can of course be regulated and varied at pleasure by increasing the circumference of the feed-rolls and number ot' pins. By thus interposing a pair of t'eed-rolls between the receiving and dispensing rollers of the record-strip, and connecting the ratchet and alarm mechanism thereto, the strip is fed in regulated quantity, and the alarm sounds as each specified space is fed forward. lIhe entries on the strips will occur at regular intervals.
Secured-to the uprights c, on a line with the bar or slat d and the registeriiig-opening ofthe case, are two brackets, cl a2, for supporting the rollers and feed mechanism ot' the check-stri p and transfer-ribbon. In the bracket al are journaled the dispensing-rollers b c of the checkstrip and transfer-ribbon, and in the bracket c2 is journaled the receiving-roller d of the ribbon and the feed-rollers e2 e3 of the check strip. The roller e2 is driven by friction; but the shaft of roller e is provided at one end with a bevel-pinion, j", which gears with pinion g, and at the opposite end with a pulley, g, which, by means of belt h', drives the receiving-roller of the inkingribbon.
2 reame By means of the mechanism thus described the check-strip and ribbon are drawn across the face ofthe record-strip, thus avoiding all tendency of the strip or ribbon to buckle or fold.
As the transfer-ribbon requires to travel but slowly I may, and probably shall, employ a wormgear for transmitting power from the shaft of roller c3, instead of a belt and pulley. m are slotted guide-plates for the'transfen ribbon and check-strip, and n is a blade or edge formed on the bracket to facilitate the tearing oft' of that portion of the check-strip which bears the entry. B represents a por desired, the front plate of the case can be made entirely of glass.
Theoperation of these devices is as follows: The case being placed upon a counter or like place when required, the clerk or salesman will write upon the portion of recordstrip opposite the register openings the amount of sale or articles sold, or both, or the number of packages received or shipped, and then will turn the feed-roll by means of the hand-Wheel, so as to ybring down a fresh portion of the recordslip, thus carrying the record just made out of reach. Ouefof the pins upon pulley h will at the same time actuate hammer p and sound an alarm, thus indicating that anentry has been made, or if no en try has been made the blank space up'on the record-strip will be seen, and must be accounted for.
When a check-slip is used in connection with the record-strip, power will be transmitted from the feed-roller of the record-strip to the feed-roller of the check-strip, causing` the check-strip to travel across the face of the record-strip. The clerk will then make the entry upon the face of the check-strip, andthe transfer-ribbon being interposed between the record-strip and check-strip, the' entry will be reproduced upon the record-strip. When the hand-wheel is next turned to bring down a fresh portion of the record-strip the checkstrip will be fed forward, so that the portion bearing the entry will escape from the case, l
and may be torn ott' and delivered to the customer, cash-boy, or driver, as the case may be.
It is evident that the record-strip may be used either with or without the check-strip, as
preferred; but in the latter case the mechanism pertaining` to the check-strip would be omitted.
It is also evident that the travel of the strips or arrangement of the dispensing and receiving' rollers might be altered or reversed by any skillful mechanicf'without departing from the spirit of myinvention.
In somecases the record-strip may be provided with the transfer-ribbon, and the checkstrip omitted, loose checks being inserted, as required.
The advantages of my devices are, that a constant and accurate record of sales must'be kept by the salesman, and that fraudulent alteration of the record-slip is impossible, and that each salesmans or shippers record becomes a check on the cashier or accountant.
Having thus described my invention, what i I claim, and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, is
1. In combination with a closed case having register-openings, the record-strip, its re ceiving and dispensing rollers, and the feedrolls, with the ratchet and alarm mechanism connected thereto, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. In a registering` device of the class specified, the combination of the record-'strip and the check-strip7 the feed-rollers of the checkstrip being arranged to draw said strip across` the face of the record-strip, substantially as. and for the purpose specified.
3. The combination of the closed case, having a register-opening, the recordstrip, with its dispensing and receiving rollers, and the feed-rolls, having the alarm mechanism connected thereto, the receiving-rolls bein gdriven from the feed-rolls by friction-gearing, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
4. The combina-tion of the closed case, having a register-openin g partially closed by glass, the record-strip, with its dispensing and receiving rollers, and. the feed-rolls, with the alarm mechanism connected thereto, substantially as and vfor the purpose'specified.
In testimony whereof I, the said ANDREW A. ANDERSON, have hereunto setmy hand.
