Description
Jan. 2, 1934. c. o. FEDDERN TICKET HOLDER Filed Sept. l2, 1928 Patented Jan. 2, 1934 41,941,979 y TICKET HOLDER carl o.y redeem, Philadelphia, Pa., assignorio Globe Ticket Company, Philadelphia, Pa., a. corporation of Pennsylvania Application September 12, 1928 Serial No. 305,601
This invention relates to a ticket `holderlarranged to receive a pad of tickets or the like and provided with means whereby the tickets maybe torn in a predetermined manner from the pad whereby data relating vto time of issuance, destination, etc. may be readilyindicated on the severed ticket Yor the stub.
The broad object of the present invention is the provision of an improved holder of the character described which is of simple and rugged construction, capable of ready adjustment, and which will render the insertion and issuance of tickets rapid and easy. The more specic objects relate to the provisions of elements designed l5 to cooperate to produce these results and will become more apparent upon studyof the following description in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a vertical section of the holder on line 1 1 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 2 is a plan View, partly in section, of the holder.
Fig. 3 is a horizontal section, looking upwardly, on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary sectional view showing details of the pad clamping mechanism.
In its preferred embodiment, the holder comprises of a semi-cylindrical housing 2 in which the various operating elements are mounted, this housing consisting, in its simplest form, of a suitable casting, preferably of some light, non-corrosive metal such as aluminium or an alloy thereof. In order to provide an adjustable mounting for the holder, housing 2 is preferably provided with a ball 4 receivable in a socket in a bracket 6 and fixedly held therein by means of a nut 8. Bracket 6 may be secured to a suitable part of the vehicle or oiiice in which the holder is to be used.
Preferably cast integrally with housing 2 is a shelf 10 extending outwardly therefrom, the inner end of which shelf is continued as spaced arcuate anges 12 within the housing, as shown in Figs. l and 3. At the sides of shelf 10 are secured upstanding guides 14 for positioning the lateral edges of a pad of tickets.
To shaft 18 is secured a worm wheel 20 with which meshes a worm 22 suitably mounted. in the housing and to which is secured a knurled head 24 whereby it may be turned by an operator.
A pad clamp 26 is provided with two radial arms 28and Sil-which areY mounted for free rotary movement about'shaft 18. A spring `32 surrounding shaft 18 'and secured at its lendsto arm 30 and the housingrespectively tends to normally rotate clamp 26 in a clockwise direction, as viewed 60 in Fig. l. Y
Extending outwardly from cla-mp 26 through an elongated slot in the casing -is a pin 34, the outer end of which is knurled for manipulation lby an operator. This pin 34 extends through an O5' arcuate slot 36 inu the end of ra lever 38 carried by a sleeve 40 rotatably mounted in bearing 16 and bored to receive; and form a bearing for, shaft 18 with which it is concentric. A knurled head 42 which may be grasped by the operator 70 is secured to the projecting endof sleeve 40.
Rotatably mounted in clamp 26 Vand extending outwardly therefrom through an elongated arcuate slot in the housing is a shaft 50 provided on the end outside the housing with a handle or knob 52 by manipulation of which it 96 may be turned. Projecting from the inner end of this shaft is an eccentric pin 54 engaging within one end of a slot 56 in a sliding bar 58, one end of which is guided by forks embracing a pin 60 extending outwardly from arm 28. The oppo- 95 site end of bar 58 is guided through an aperture in clamp 26. A spring 62 is interposed under compression between a pin 64 carried by arm 28 and the inner end of slot 56. The outer end of bar 58 carries a pointed jaw 66 which extends 100 over the outer surface of clamp 26 which is preferably serrated. This outer surface lies in the cylindrical surface defined by arcuate flanges 12. Accordingly if the stub end A of a pad of tickets is mpaled upon jaw 66 when the same is in outer 105 position by reason of the cam action of pin 54, and shaft 50 is then turned to free the end of slot 56 from pin 54 so that spring 62 may force jaw 66 towards the serrated surface of clamp 26, the end of the pad will be fixedly held, the sides thereof adjacent the clamp resting on anges 12 while the free ends B of the tickets extend outwardly over shelf 10 between guides 14.
A cover is pivoted by means of a pin 72 to the upper rear edge of housing 2 and is yieldingly urged to closed position by means of a spring 74. The free edge of the cover opposite the pivot and which normally rests on the pad of tickets is provided with an inwardly extending blade shaped edge for a reason which will hereafter be apparent. The inner and upper edge of this blade preferably merge smoothly with the inner surface of the cover.
In order to retain the cover in open position during removal or replacement of a pad of tickets, any suitable device may be used. As shown, a lever '76 is pivoted to the cover and is provided with an L-shaped slot '78 embracing a pin 80. on the housing. When the cover is raised, lever 76 rides over the pin until the lower arm of the slot comes into alignment with the pin when the lever will fall by gravity, pin 8l) entering the lower arm of the slot. Cover 70 will then be locked against the closing action of spring 74 until lever 76 is manually raised to free'the lower arm of the slot from pin 80.
Adjustably mounted along the outer cutting edge 81 of cover 70 is an indentation forming nger 82 which may, for example, be slidably -mounted in a slot in the cover.
In operation, the device is suitably positioned at a convenient point in a vehicle or station or the like. Supposing that it is desirable to limit the use of tickets to half hour intervals, the tickets =may be provided adjacent the stub ends with a 1though for simplicity only two columns, one containing hours and the other half hours, are described. If it is desired to indicate hours, finger 82 may be located as shown in Fig. l.
Stub end A of the pad is then engaged between jaw 66 and the serrated surface of the clamp, and cover 70 is closed. By rotation of knurled head 24, lever 38 is rotated until, by reason of the fact that pin 34 is maintained at the front end of slot 36 by spring 32, the clamp is so moved that the desired marking is brought below edge 8l of the cover. The device is now ready for use and tickets may be torn from the pad along the desired line and with a proper indentation or indentations along the torn edges.
As each ticket is torn off, the operator moves pin 34v rearwardly and downwardly until the pin contacts with the lower end of slot 36. This brings the stub from the torn ticket rearwardly beyond blade 75. A subsequent outward movement of the tickets results in the movement of the `torn edge of the stub upwardly over the blade and its consequent retention within the cover so as to prevent interference with the tearing of subsequent tickets. The curved position of the pad over guides 12 produces a tendency for the tickets to bow upwardly and facilitates this retention of the stub ends.
If it is desired to change the position of the line of tearing, worm 22 may be rotated to bring the pad to the desired position. A more rapid and rough adjustment may be attained by disengagement of pin 44 from the hole in which it is located and its replacement in another hole in wheel 20, A ne adjustment may then be made by worm 22 if this is necessary.
What I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
A ticket holder comprising a severing edge, means for holding a pad of tickets or the like with the free ends thereof extending outwardly beyond the severing edge, means providing rapid rough relative adjustment of the holding means and severing edge to vary the lengths of portions of the tickets extending beyond the severing edge, and means providing a ne relative adjustment of the holding means and severing edge.
