IVILLIAM \V. HAAS, OF FARMER CITY, ILLINOIS.
COIN COUNTER AND TESTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 314,330, dated March 2 1885.
Application filed September 10, 1884. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM W. HAAS, of Farmer City, in the county of De \Vitt and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved (Join-Counter, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved coin-balance for facilitating the counting of coins of all kinds.
The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure l is a longitudinal elevation of my improved coin-counter. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same.
A long beam, A, provided near one end with knife-edge pivots B, rests upon a standard, C, having a suitable base, D. The beam has an upwardly-projecting tongue, E, at the pivots. The short end of the beam, which is considerably shorter than the long end, is provided with two laterally-projecting pivots, F, at about half the length of the short arm from the standard 0, and on the pivots an upright bar, G, is pivoted, having its lower end connected by a link, 11, with the standard. ()n
the upper end of the bar G a receptacle, J, is
placed and properly secured.
A balance-weight, K, is held on the short end of the beam, so as to balance the long end.
On the long end of the beam A four cups, L, are secured, which taper toward the lower ends, and are each provided with a series of oii'sets. At the top the cups are large enough toreceiveatwenty-dollargold piece or a silver dollar, and at the bottom they are adapted to receive a ten-cent piece. The cups are open at one side, so that the coins may be grasped by the thumb and forefinger, or may be pushed out through the open side by a finger of the operator. This improvement allows of the ready removal of the coin, as it is not necessary to first raise the coin by means of the finger-nail or a pointed instrument in order to grasp it with the forefinger and thumb, as in some prior constructions. The first cup L is such a distance from the fulcrum that it will raise five times its own weight on the receptacle J, the second that it will raise ten, the third twenty, and the fourth forty times its own weight on the receptacle J.
The operation is as follows: Ifanumber of quarters are placed on the receptacle J, and it requires two quarters in the fourth cup from the fulcrum, one in the third cup, and one in the second cup, the number of coins on the receptacle J will be equal to 40 2+l 20 +1 l0:1l0 quarters, equal to $27.50. Dollars, eagles, double eagles, 350., are all counted in the same manner.
The unit of weight is the weight of one of the coins to be weighed.
It is not absolutely necessary that the coins should be used as weights, as weights can be substituted if they are equal in weight to the proper weight of the different kinds of coins.
Having thus described my. invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A coin-counter consisting, essentially, in the standard 0, the beam A, pivoted thereto to form a long and a short arm,graduated opensided cups L on the upper edge of the long arm, and weight K on the short arm, the bar G, pivoted to the short arm of the beam, between the weight and the standard, the link H, pivoted to the lower end of the bar G and to the standard, and the receptacle J on the upper end of the bar G, substantially as set forth.
2. In a coin-counter, a coincup, L, tapered from the top to the bottom, provided with offsets and open at one side, substantially as herein shown and described.
