Arson, Wantagh, Nfill. (175 Pinehurst Ave., New York 33, NSY.) Filed June 25, 1%2, Ser. No. 204,734 3 Claims. (Cl. 53254) This invention relates to new and useful improvements in a device for stacking and wrapping coins of various denominations.
A principal object of the present invention is to provide an improved coin assembler that can collect coins of difierent denominations in its holding tubular body in such a position as to enable a predetermined quantity to be scooped up and quickly and efiectively transferred to a conventional paper coin wrapper or envelope.
Another object of the invention is to provide a coin stacking and wrapping device that permits the speedy insertion of the coins into the coin wrapper tube and the rapid folding of the ends of the wrapper tube thereby enclosing the coins therein.
A further object of the invention is to provide a very expeditious method of packaging coins.
Yet another object is to provide a coin stacking and wrapping device that is adjustable to suit coins of various denominations.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a coin stacking and wrapping device that is simple in construction, economical to manufacture and efiicient for the purposes intended.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
in the accompanying drawings forming a material part of this disclosure:
FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of a coin stacking and wrapping device embodying my invention, a coin wrapper tube being shown in dash lines.
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional View thereof, the coin wrapper tube being omitted.
FIG. 3 is a view from the right-hand end of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a disassembled perspective view of the coin stacking and wrapping device of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is a reduced fragmentary sectional view similar to PEG. 2 with a different sized coin holder tube.
FIG. 6 is a disassembled top plan view of the coin holder tube and the coin wrapper tube, parts being shown broken away.
FIG. 7 is a front elevational view of the slidable block forming part of the invention.
FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a coin wrapper tube filled with coins.
Referring in detail to the drawings, in FIG. 1 a coin stacking and wrapping device is shown and designated generally by the reference numeral 113. The device it) comprises a semi-funnel-snaped metal body 12 with an inwardly and downwardly tapered curved wall 14 covering the top and side thereof and an integral flatwall 16 at the bottom thereof as viewed in FIG. 1. The narrow end of the body 12 terminates in a hollow cylindrical extension 18 flattened at its bottom side and openat both sides 2t and 22. The wide end of the tapered curved wall 14 is formed with a flange 24 having a head 26 around its outer end edge. The fiat wall 16 of the body is supported on an elongated fiat rectangular-shaped plate 28 of any suitable material and is secured thereon by adhesive 3%. The plate 28 extends beyond the extension 18 forming a handle 32.
In order LO accommodate and stack coins of various 3,180,079 Patented Apr. 27, 1965 ice.
denominations removable and interchangeable elongated metal tubes are supported with one end in the extension 18, such as the tube 44 shown in FIG. 1. The tube 44 accommodates a predetermined size of coin, such as a penny, a dime or any desirable size.
The tube 44 is frictionally held in extended position above along the handle 32 and closely spaced therefrom, providing a clearance 50. A tapered plug 46 with a reduced neck portion 48 has its neck portion 4 plugged into the other end of the tube 44. 1
In order to accommodate and stack coins of various denominations and sizes it is necessary to removably support in extension 18' a tube similar to tube 44 but of the necessary diameter to accommodate the'size of coin desired. For this purpose, an elongated flat-sided adapter block 36 is provided. The adapter block is substantially rectangular in configuration and cross section with tapered ends 38. The body of the block is formed with a series of spaced openings 39, 40, 41 and 42 extending across the body. Each opening is round at 'one side of.
the body and is formed with a diamond-shaped countersunk portion 51 at the opposite side of the body. The countersunk portion is larger than the round opening 40 and tapers inwardly joining the inner wall edge of the round opening thereby providing a shoulder 53 at each corner of the base of the countersunk portion 51. The shaping and tapering of the countersunk portion facilitates entry of the coin therein and intothe end of the tube. portion is dimensioned to accommodate a dime; the opening 4%} and countersunk portion to accommodate a penny; the opening 41 and countersunk portion to ac-, commodate a live cent piece and the opening 4-2 and countersunk portion to accommodate a quarter. It will be understood that the block 36 might have additional openings and countersunk portions to accommodate coins of larger diameters than the quarter. The adapter block 36 is slidable through'the openings in the sides 20 and 2.2 of the extension 18 whereby .any of the openings 39,
4d, 4 1, or 42 may be brought into alignment with the center of the bore in the cylindrical extension 18. In FIG. 1, the tube 44 is of a size to accommodate pennies so that the opening 49 of the block 36 is shown aligned.
with the bore of the extension 18.
In FIG. 4, the coin stacking and wrapping device 10 of FIG. 1 is shown in disassembled condition, the adapter block 36 and the tube 44' being shown preparatory to being moved into assembled operative position as shown in FIG. 1.
lnFiG. 5, a coin stacking and wrapping device 10' having a tube 44' that is of a size to accommodate quarters instead of pennies is shown. The end of the tube 44' is shown supported in opening 42 of the adapter block 36. in all other respects the device ll? is similar to device Ill) and is similarly numbered.
In use, the device it) such as the device shown in FIG. 1 with the tube 4 to accommodate pennies or the device 19' with tube 44' to accommodate quarters as shown in FIG. 5, is placed against the edge of the table top or other supporting surface for the coins S4 with the top surface of the fiat portion 253 of the body 12 flush with the top surface of the table or the like. The coins supported on the table top are scooped into the semi-funnel-shaped body 12 and the body is then tilted upwardly to permit the coins to slide through the extension 18, through the opening in the supported end of the tube'dd or 44' and through the tube to the flat surface of the reduced neck portion 48 of the plug 45 which serves as a buffer or stopper for the inward movement or" the coins. When the tube is sufiiciently filled with coins as seen from the wide end of the body 12, the tube 44 or 4-4 is withdrawn and the tube is inserted into a conventional paper coin wraper tube 52 with both The opening 39 in the block with its countersunk V 3 ends open as seen-in FIG. 6, the plugged end entering first.
The paper tube 52 is slightly longer than the coin holding tube 44 or 44' and the end of the paper tube extending beyond the open end of the tube 44 or 44' is folded into sealed condition as indicated at 56 in FIG. 8. The tube 44 or 44' is then tilted so that its plugged end 46 is uppermost. The tube 44 or 44' is then removed from the paper tube 52 by pulling it outwardly of the open end of the paper tube 52 whereupon said open end of the paper tube is folded similarly to the other end so as to produce a coin holding wrapper 58 as shown in FIG. 8 filled with coins. The wrapper 58 may have indicia 60 on the outside surface thereof to identify the contents thereof.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and that various changes and modifications may be made within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent 1s:
