WVILLTAM S. LAll/ISON, OF LOWELL, MASSACHUSETTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 310,832, dated January 13, 1885.
Application filed December 2, 1884. (No model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM S. LAMSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lowell, in the county of Middlesex and State of Mas sachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Elevators for Cash-Oarriers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of storeservice apparatus in which carriers for cash, parcels, 850., are elevated from the salesmens counters and placed upon the suspended tracks; and my invention consists in constructing the elevating apparatus, as fully de scribed hereinafter, so as to absolutely pre vent the carriers from being thrown or escaping from the elevator, except when the latter is in position to direct them onto the track.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of sufficient of a store-service appara tus and elevator to illustrate my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan on the line 1 2 of Fig. 1. I
D represents one of the ways of a store service apparatus, which is suspended by means of yokes A from any suitable support; and D represents what is usually termed a tilting-bridge, the same being a counterbalanced track-section arranged above the track D, and normally in an elevated position, so as to permit spherical carriers to pass freely below the same, but tilting downward into contactavith the track to guide a carrier onto the latter whenever such carrier is placed upon the bridge. I
N is an elevator-box consisting of an open receptacle having at each side ears 0, which slide upon guide-rods q, suitably supported,
and extending from a position adjacent to one of the counters upward above the bridge, a cord fixed to a support at one end passing over a pulley, d, and secured to the elevatorbox, carrying a pulley, 8, connected to a pend-' ent cord, 1), and serving as a means of raising and lowering the said box. The elevator-box is adapted to receive the rolling carriers X, a flange, b, preventing the carrier from rolling out of the rear of the box; and in order to prevent it from escaping from the forward part of the box until it is in a position to pass onto the track I arrange a stationary rod or bar, 0, in front of and between the bars q, and
extending upward parallel to said bars as far as the bridge. WVhen a carrier is placed in the box, it will rest upon the bottom. of the latter, which is preferably inclined, as shown in the drawings, and will be held in place in the box until the bottom of the latter is above the top end of the rod 0, when it will roll over the latter onto the bridge D, which will descend under its weight and direct it onto the track I).
By the above-described combination of a retaining-rod with a vertically-moving elevator-box I am enabled to hold the carrier in the box without possibility of escape until the box is in proper position, however violently or suddenly the box may be moved, and the said retaining-rod further serves, in connection with the guides, to form a rigid structure, guiding and supporting the box, and insuring its proper movement in relation to the track.
It will of course be obvious that the box may be guided and supported in any othersuitable manner, and that the carrier may be projected directly onto the track instead of upon the bridge, and that it may be projected positively from the box instead of rolling over the inclined bottom thereof. It will also be apparent that two or more retaining-rods, 0, may be used in place of one. One, however, in most cases will effect the desired purpose.
Without limiting myself to the precise construction and arrangement of parts shown, I
1. The combination, with a vertically-moving elevator for cash-carriers, and with the receivingtrack, of a retaining-rod arranged in front of the path traveled by the elevator, and extending to the point where the carrier is to be delivered to the track, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with a track of a storeservice apparatus, and with a vertically-guided elevator for the cash-carrier, of a rod arranged to retain the carriers in the elevator until the latter is in a position to deliver the same to the track, substantially as specified.
3. The combination, with the track of a store-service apparatus, of an elevator-box, parallel rods guiding and supporting the latter, and a retainingrod arranged to hold the ICO carriers in the elevator until the latter is retaining-rod extending upward to said bridge, above the 'receiving track, substantially as for the purpose specified. specified. Intestimony whereof I have signed my name 4. The combination of an elevator-box verto this specificationin the presence of two sub- 5 tieally guided, and provided with an inclined scribing witnesses.
bottom and a retaining-rod arranged to prevent the carriers from rolling out of the box, I WVILLIAM substantially as specified. Witnesses:
5. The combination of a vertically-guided (HAS. A. 00X, 10 e1evator-boX, track D, tilting bridge D, and E. F. ENDICOTT.
