Dec. 15, 1959 N. J. HUMPHREY PAPER AND COIN CONTAINER Filed April 11, 1955 IN V EN TOR. A a 777/4 2794277 7Xm United States Patent PAPER AND COIN CONTAINER Norman J. Humphrey, East Detroit, Micl1 assignor to Bankit Container Company, Detroit, Mich., a corporation of Michigan Application April 11, 1955, Serial No. 500,345
2 Claims. (Cl. 22972) Difiiculty is being experienced in drive-in banks because of the inefiicient manner of handling the deposit slips and coins between the teller at the receiving window and the driver of a car parked thereat. Considerably more time is consumed than is necessary to make the transfer, and as a result, the automobiles pile up and cause serious trafilc jams at busy times.
The present invention pertains to a container which will produce a uniform package which the depositor can hand to the teller as 'he drives to a window and which will aid the teller in counting the money, in checking the deposit slip, making entries into the bank book, and returning the bank book and a new container to the depositor. The uniform container eliminates the confusion and mishandling of the coins, deposit slip and bank book as tendered by the depositor heretofore. The unfoldable container permits uniform handling and the rapid completion of each transaction so that the piling up of automobiles is substantially reduced, if not eliminated.
The container comprises a die cut sheet scored to provide a central panel, left and right-hand panels, and a flap at the top and bottom of the central panel. An edge of the right-hand panel is indented for the reception of a finger so that the panel may be readily opened. The left-hand panel is folded upon the central panel and the right-hand panel is folded onto the left-hand panel. The bottom flap is bent upwardly over the lower edge of the right-hand panel, to which it is secured by a suitable adhesive. The left-hand panel forms with the central panel a pocket for the reception of coins which are retained therein when the top flap of the central panel is folded over the left-hand panel. The deposit slip and bank book are placed between the right and left-hand panels which extend above the coin pocket. When the container is handed to the teller, he may tear the bottom flap, exposing the coins, the checks, bills, deposit slip and book. The money is immediately counted and recorded and the book is slipped into a new container and handed to the driver, thus materially reducing the time of the transaction.
Accordingly, the main objects of the invention are: to provide a container having a pocket for coins and a recess for checks, deposit slips, bank book and the like, all of which are orderly arranged and readily available to the teller; to form a container from sheet material cut to have a central and two side panels which are folded over each other and joined together at the bottom by a flap on the central panel which is secured by an adhesive to the bottom of the rear panel, the pocket formed by the central and intermediate panels being closed by a flap on the top of the central panel, and, in general, to provide a container for coins, bills, deposit slips and the like which is simple in construction and economical of manufacture.
' and the container laid open, as illustrated in Fig. 3.
Other objects and features of novelty of the invention will be specifically pointed out or will become apparent when referring, for a better understanding of the invention, to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a container for coins, bills, deposit slips, bank books and the like which embodies features of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the structure illustrated in Fig. 1, taken on the line 22 thereof;
Fig. 3 is a reduced view of the sheet material after being cut and scored and before being folded into the container illustrated in Fig. l, and
Fig. 4 is a broken view of the structure illustrated in Fig. 3, showing another form thereof.
A container 10, as illustrated in the figures, is made from a sheet of material which may be paper, opaque or transparent plastic, cardboard and the like which is cut in a manner as illustrated in Fig. 3. The sheets are preferably die cut singly or in multiples, as is the common practice in the art, to provide a central panel 11, a lefthand panel 12, and a right-hand panel 13. Score lines 14 are provided between the panels so that they may be folded therealong. Score lines 15 are provided between a bottom flap 16 and a top flap 17 on the central panel along which the flaps are'foldable; The left-hand panel 12 is bent over the central panel 11 along the score line 14 and the right-hand panel 13 is then folded over the left-hand panel 12 along the score line 14. The bottom flap 16 is folded along the score line 15 and secured by an adhesive material to the bottom of the right-hand flap 13 to complete-the assembly. An indentation 18 may be provided along the edge of the right-hand flap 13 so that the edge portion along the score line 14 between the panels 11 and 12 may be grasped and the flap 16 torn In this manner, the contents of the coin receptacle formed by the panels 11 and 12 and the checks, paper money, deposit slips and bank book retained between the coin receptacle and the panel 13 are immediately exposed so that the money may be quickly counted and the deposit transaction completed. When using the container, the coins are dropped into the pocket formed by the panels 11 and 12 and the flap 17 is bent over the panel 12 to close the pocket and prevent'the loss of the coins. The checks, paper money, deposit slip and bank book are then slipped into the recess between the panels 12 and 13, with the upper portions exposed, as illustrated at 19 in Figs. 1 and 2. The depositor drives his car to the tellers window, hands the container to the teller who immediately tears the flap 16 in a manner described above to expose the contents, permitting the money and checks to be counted and the necessary records made thereof. The bank book is then slipped into the recess of a new container and handed to the driver, completing the transaction in the shortest possible time.
In Fig. 4 a further form of the invention is illustrated, that wherein the panel 11 has a window opening 21 provided therein enclosed by a sheet of transparent material 22. With this arrangement, coins may be counted after being placed within the coin pocket, or when the teller is making the transaction, deferring the handling of the coins to some later time.
The container thus provided my be-torn apart to facilitate the counting of the money and making the necessary records thereof. A new container having the deposit slip or bank book therein is returned to the depositor. The flaps 17 may be opened and the coins shaken from the container so that the'same container may be returned with the deposit slip or book to the depositor. The coins may be quickly counted through the transparent window when the one as illustrated in Fig. 4 is employed, and
the container laid aside and the transaction completed without the, necessity of handling and sorting "the coins. The coins may be counted and sorted at a later period after the rush of depositors is over.
