'AUTOGRAPHIC REGISTERING APPARATUS.'A
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters I atent No. 286,56O,Actober 9, 1883. l Application led December 19,1882. (No model.)
T 0 all 1,072,017?, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, J .inns C. SHoUP, ,a citizen of the United States, and a resident of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented an Improved Autographie Registering Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.
The essential objects of my invention areto provide an improved apparatus to register autographic writings, marks; signs, and ilnpressions of all kinds, the Original of which can be used and kept, apart by the writer, while the duplicate or fac-simile of the sameis secretly preserved, so that it cannot beimproperly or unlawfully tampered with without the fact being indicated or leading to detection. This invention will be of great use and benefit. to all who desire to makeor keep copies, and have at all times a faithful,'true, anticorrect transcript or record of transactions had of the nature referred to. I accomplish the said objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, of-which- "Sheet I, Figure l is a side elevation, the hinged door of the casing being broken away to better show a side view of the interior.v
mechanism. The arrows indicate the direcv tion in which the reels and ribbon strips move.
Fig. 2 is a Itop or plan view, showing the tablet upon which the writing is done, 'theplatebearing upon theA margins of the strips, and the window for permitting inspectionof the duplicate strip, which is stored upon the receiving-reel. Detail parts are shown where Athe frame-plates are broken away. Sheet II,
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal central sectional elevation. Figs. 4 and 5 are respective' crosssectional elevations, the former being taken online 4 4, and the latter iigu-re on line 5 5, of Fig. 3. Fig, 6 is an enlarged detail section of the tablet-face and its ribbon strips, and Fig.
7 a detail'vicwof the brake to control the' -having the fac-simile or recordjs to be rwound and stored, as will hereinafter appear. B B'l are the dispensing reels or spools,upon which the strips are wound, to be given out as required. Each reel', as'herein shown. consists of a hollow shell, b, from which', at each end, projeetthe disk-heads b D". Each reel, as stated, turns upon its proper bearings, and, when occasion requires,l can be slipped off or on, for purposes hereinafterl stated.
c c represent theres'pective strips or rib,- bons, or their equivalent, uponl which the writing or impression is to be made. The reels B B2 are supplied with the requisite strips of paper, and then adjusted upon their bearings. The strip c comes from the reelV B', and that of c comes from the reel B2, and the loose ends otjbot-h` said stripsI c c arethen passed, the one on top of the other, between the two guide-rollers el d. (See Figs.' 1, 3.) The two rollers d el turn easily in the frame-work and serve to direct the 'passage .of the two strips c d to and over the top face, X, of the apparatus. Further, both strips c c next pass 'between the gripping-rollers at d2 da. Theupperroller, d2, is preferably of rubber, and by means of the' side springs 'at d" is made to bear upon-.the strips c c', and thus grip them, so that upon the movement of thev lower strip, those above will be carried along with it. The roller d3 I cover with a semi-curved plate or housing, d5, the front face of which is made to a knife-- edge, d, whereby the top strip, c, eanbe readily eut off. -The under or bottom strip, c', is continued or passed under a glass or window face, (marked X,') which is inclined, so that the record cannot readily be seen from behind the user, as shown in Figs. 2, 3, 5. From thence the said bottom strip, d, still farther passes over the guide-roller e, and finally said bottom strip is ,wound upon the storing-reel B (see Figs. 1 and 3)-that is to say, the bottom strip extends from the dispensing-reel B2 to the storing-reeLB. It will be seen that by turning the crank E, attached tolthe receiving-reel B, all the said reels are made to turn in the same direction, and'both the lstrips c c are moved over the tablet X and passed bef tween the rollers Il d, one downward under the window to the storingaeel, and .the other outward above the window, to be cut off .by
theknife-edge d, The reels BB, earryin'g'a plurality'of strips, are made to give out the same length of strip taken' in by storing-reel B. The under strip of the series, after passing guide-rolls d d', over the tablet X, and between grip-rollers d" d andfover guide-roller e, is attached to storing-reel B and is wound up by moving crank E.
F ,is a stop applied to bear directlyon the peripheryof the receiving-reel B, l(see Figs. 1, 7 to prevent slacking and reverse turning on the partof the said reel, and at f a springbrake is applied to bear against the sides of the twodispensing-reels B B2, and insure a uniform tension on the strips and movement `on the part of the reels.
It isessential to carry out my purpose that a transfer medium be usedin combination with the aforesaid top and bottom strips, c c'. g represents this transfer medium, and consists of astripof carbon paper or ink-ribbon, Or its equivalent, for taking a copy of writing by pressure. This carbon or ink stripl arrange as follows:
H H arethe two small reels, arranged as shown. Upon these reels the strip is arranged, so that it can be unwound from the rcel H and be Wound upon the other reel, H. The reel H, by its bevel-gear h, meshes with a like bevel-gear, h', the latter having one end of its shaft extending outside the frame-work and easing, andis operated by thumb-nut h2. Thus both reels H H are made t-o turn in the same direction. The strip g is first coiled as a supply-say upon. reel H. rlhe other end of Asaid strip is then passed upward in a vertical direction over the side rolls, acrossV the tabletface, between the respective top and bottom strips, c c', as shown. From thence said strip g passes vertically downward, and is finally secured to the remaining reel, ll', all clearly shown in Fig. 4. By simply turning the thu )nb-nut h", the reels H li are revolved, the strip q winding uponA reel ll and unwinding from reel H', and in doing so a fresh supply or newportion of the transfer-strip r/ is brought between the upper and lower strips, c c', and the old or worn-out portion of strip g is carried to reel H and wound up. rlhe changing of strip g, as described, is only done when it is necessary to obtain clearness of impression upon the record-strip c', or when that portion over the tablet-face has been worn' out. The carbon strip f/ is held stationary so long as it can be used to make clear imprcssionsor copies, and is moved transversely across the tabletface` between the strips c c', whenever a change is required to give a clear impression, which can be determined by inspection of the recordcopy under the window.
In order to provide means for removing the storing-reel B, with its record or strip c', as also the reels B B2, in a lawful manner, for obvious purposes, I have hinged the under portion of one of said side frames marked I)'to tlre upper portion of said ,side frame, as shown in Fig. 1. ly unscrewing thumb-nuts lZ'from the tie-.rods z z', the hinged frame I is free to be turned upward sufficiently' to leave each reel B B-B2 free to -be removed from the'apparay ing J are secured strips or flanges of metal, j,
which project or lap over the outer edges oi' the paper strips, (see Fig. 2,) and like metal flanges, j', lap over and hide the window edges.
The complete apparatus thus constructed, as shown and described, is operated and used in the following manner. The writing is done upon the top sheet or strip, c. Suppose the writings, &c., to be as follows: 2nd National Bank ctfcts., $2,000.00; checks, 4-`tl,.300.0(); total, $3,500.00. James C. Shoup.77 At the same time that the writing is made upon the top strip, c, an exact duplicate or fac-simile is also made upon the bottom strip, c. The crank E is next turned by the operator, which Irevolves the storing-reel, and this winds up the record-strip, which in passing the griprollers causes them to revolve and'draw the upper strip, with the lower strip, over the face of the tabletfrom off the dispensing-reels simultaneousl y until the writing upon the upper strip is a little beyond the knife-edge, when that portion of the upper strip, with its writing, istorn off, for such uses asitmay be applicable to. 'The fac-simile remains inside the apparatus upon thc storing-reel. Successive written orders, receipts, messages, &c., can be made, and their exact counterpart may be kept as a record for future use.
It will be observed that the dispensing reels or spools, the storing-reel, the guide-rolls, and the gripping-rolls are independently mounted in the frame without connection by gearing of any kind, and that by reason of this the dispensing-spools give out just the length of strips required by the draft of the storingreel, thereby always keeping all the strips taut.
Vhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letl ters Patent, is--l l. 1n an autographie registering apparatus, the combination of the dispensing-spools and a storing-reel, each mounted upon its shaft independent of the others, the dispensing-spools being moved to give out a plurality of strips by reeling up the registry-strip, as herein described.
2. In anautographic registering apparatus, the combination of dispensing-spools, a storing-reel, and friction-rolls, as d' fl, mounted. in the frame independent of ,each other, and moved in `unison to give out a plurality of IOO IIO
IoV
Astrips and reel up one of them by moving the'V registry-reel, as hereinbefore described.
3. In an autographic registering apparatus,
the combination, With the independently mounted dispensing-spools, storing-reel, and grip rolls, of the reels and guide-rolls for mov.- ing the transfer-paper at right angles With the strips and across the tablet, as herein described. Y
4. In an automatic registering apparatus, the combination hereinbefore described of the dispensing-spools, guide-rolls, grip-rolls, and storing-reel, all independently mounted in the frame, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.' n
5. In an autographic apparatus, the combination hereinbefore described of the frames A A', brace-rods a a a2, hollow drums or spools B B B2, and tie-rods z z', vfor the purpose specified. Y Y
6. In an autographie apparatus substan-l tially such as described, the combination, with'` the rigid. frame, brace-rods, and tie-rods, of the hinged frame I, forthe purpose specified.
7. In an autographic registering apparatus, the combination of the independently-mounted dispensing-spools and storing-reel, and brakes for causing resistance to the forwardmove ment of the dispensing-spools, and a stop to prevent the backward movement of the storing-reel, whereby the train is moved by rotating the storing-reel to wind up the regisreel, substantially as and for the purposes set forth. Y
In testimony of said invention I have hereunto set my hand. Y
JAMES; o. sHoUr.
