ATTORNEY Patented Apr. 18, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFIQE 6 Claims.
This invention relates to an identification means and particularly to a device for automatically receiving and permanently securing identification tags, credit cards, and the like to automobiles, cash registers and other articles, and is an improvement in the device disclosed and claimed in my United States Patent No. 2,098,432, issued November 9, 1937.
In many instances, credit and other courtesies are extended to persons who are not entitled to them because of improper identification. To provide a complete and absolute identification it is necessary that the tags contain a signature of the owner.
An object of the present invention resides in the provision of an inexpensive, simple receptacle, for receiving and locking therein, identification tags, which receptacle is permanently attached to the dash board or other suitable place of an automobile or other article.
Heretofore devices of this nature required the provision of a special tag containing embossed or inlaid indicia in order to prevent the defacing or altering of the indicia. These embossed or 25 inlaid identification tags are comparatively expensive to manufacture and furthermore must necessarily contain a limited amount of information thereon.
It is an object of this invention to provide a receptacle which will permanently inclose a plurality of cheaply manufactured tags, signed by the owner, which cannot be altered or defaced without noticeable damage or other revealing marks of unauthorized tampering to the recep- 35 tacle or tag.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this nature which Will permit the easy insertion of subsequent identification tags and which will permanently lock the tags when they lie wholly within the receptacle and thus provide a cumulative history of identification in relation to the. article or person to be identified.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which may be conven- 45 iently and quickly mounted and looked upon a supporting member by an ordinary person Without the aid of special tools and which cannot be removed without destruction of the device. A further object is to provide a receptacle for inclosing a plurality of identification tags so that only the indicia on the last inserted tag is Visible.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent from the following description wherein reference is made to the drawing, in which:
Fig. l is an elevation of the device mounted upon a supporting panel;
Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view taken substantially along the line 2--2 of Fig. 1 illustrating the manner in which a plurality of tags are secured in place within the receptacle;
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1 illustrating the method in which subsequent tags are inserted in the device;
Fig. 4 is an elevation view of an identification tag illustrated in Figs. 2 and 3.
Referring to Figs. 1, 2, and 3, the retaining device indicated generally by the numeral I is shown as comprising a rectangular shaped metallic receptacle 2 having side walls 3 and end walls 4. The top wall 5 of the receptacle is provided With an inspection opening or window 6 for revealing the indicia on the last inserted identification tag. The bottom wall 8 may comprise a plate suitably welded or otherwise permanently secured to the rectangular shaped receptacle 2 substantially fiush with the side walls 3 and end walls 4 thereof, as illustrated in Figs. 2 and 3, thus providing a closed box-like container or receptacle for the identification tags. The retaining device I is permanently mounted upon a dash board of an automobile or other suitable supporting member S by means of a suitable locking screw 9 and locking cap 9a which is of a well known construction.
The bottom plate 8 is extended to provide an enlarged portion 80, for the purpose of containing the official seal of the state which issued the automobile license or may contain the trade mark or the like of the firm or company which extends credit to the owner.
Fixedly secured to the bottom plate 8 is a pin 10 upon which a locking element or pin I2 is resiliently mounted for endwise movement toward and away from the window slot and preferably into contact therewith. The element I2 is preferably provided with a hollow bore [5 which telescopically receives the pin H], a suitable coil spring It being interposed, within the bore, between the pin Hi and locking element I2 for urging the element I 2 toward and against the wall 5. To prevent rotation of the locking element l2 the aperture N5 of the locking element and the pin l2 are non-circular in cross-section, and preferably square. A substantially U-shaped flat metal leaf spring I 8 is secured to the bottom plate 8 by means of the head of the locking screw 9 and contacts the bottom surface of the initially inserted tag to hold and urge the tags towards the window wall and into juxtaposition to each other and to the inspection window l9.
In order to permit insertion of the tags edgewise, a slot 22 is provided in a side wall of the retainer 5 parallel to and close to the plane of the window, the path of the tags being inserted through the slot normally being obstructed by the element E2. The upper end of the element I2 is chamfered or beveled as at M to provide a wedge surface which is engageable by the tags during insertion to wedge the pin out of obstructing position and permit free ingress of the particular tag. After insertion element I2 is urged toward the window 5 by the spring l6.
For locking the plates in the retainer the plates are provided with locking apertures 24, positioned for registry with each other and with the locking element l2 when the plates are fully inserted respectively. Upon complete insertion of each plate the locking pin or element l2 enters the aperture thereof and prevents subsequent removal.
In order to render the tags inaccessible after being fully inserted and locked in the device an inspection window I 9 of glass or any other transparent material is mounted within the receptacle 2 and overlies and covers the inspection opening 6. The paper, cardboard or the like, tags 20 are suitably mounted and secured upon the metal plates 2! to provide a cheap and desirable identification tag.
Referring to Fig. 4 the tag 2i! contains a complete identification which may be cheaply inscribed thereupon by printing, writing or other convenient means.
As heretofore pointed out, credit and other courtesies are often extended to persons not properly identified and who are not entitled to them. To preclude such a person from obtaining this credit in the name of the true and rightful owner, a signature space 23 as illustrated in Fig. 4 is provided and credit, etc., will not be extended against the owners account to any person not entitled to it.
Furthermore, thefts of vehicles and other articles containing my device may be readily detected in that it is impossible to change the indicia of the tags without noticeable destruction of the inspection window l9 or of the entire device.
To insert the initial tag in the device, the innermost end is placed in the slot 22 in, the end wall 4 of the receptacle 2. The tag is then moved toward the center of the receptacle and will cam the locking pin I2 downwardly against the tension of the spring !6 due to the angle of the chamfer i l to allow the tag to pass the locking pin until the tag lies wholly within the receptacle. In this position the locking pin I2 will register with the locking aperture 24 of the tag and become engaged therein upon expansion of the coil spring 15 to permanently lock the tag within the receptacle 2.
To insert additional tags the pin 30 (Fig. 3) is inserted in the aperture 3| in the top surface of the receptacle 2 and contacts the first inserted tag and forces it downwardly a sufficient distance against the tension of the leaf spring I8 to allow the new tag to pass between it and the inspection window l9. The tag will pass the locking pin I 2 in the same manner as above described and when fully inserted within the receptacle will be permanently locked therein. The chamfer Id of the locking pin I2 is sloped away from the direction of the insertion of the tags and will allow the tags to pass between the inspection window and pin but will prevent the removal of the tags without noticeable damage to the receptacle.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that the tags will be automatically locked within the receptacle without the use of special devices or tools. The present invention may be cheaply and accurately manufactured in large quantities by standard machines and the identification tags may also be inexpensively manufactured or obtained.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
