CHRISTIAN CONRAD SPRINGE AND CHARLES J ULIUS RAIFFEISEN, OF SEDALIA, MISSOURI.
SELF-INDICATING MEASURE FOR DRY-GOODS, 80C.
EPEC-ICATION forming part o Letters Patent No.332,965, dated December 22, 1885.
Application tiled June $10, 1585. Serial No. 169,305. (No model.)
.To all whom may concern:
Be it known that we,CHRIsTIAN O. SPRINGE and CHaRLEs J. RAIFFEISEN. both of Sedalia, in the county of Pettis and State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Self-Indicating Measures for Dry-Goods Counters, &c., of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this speciiication, and in Whieh- Figure l isa top view of our self-indicating measure, which in this figure is shown inlaid in the l'ront top edge ot' the counter. Fig. 2 is a top view of the measure on an enlarged scale. Figs. 3 and 4 are enlarged detail vertical longitudinal sections at 3 4., Fig. S, showing the parts in two positions. Fig. 5 is a detail longitudinal section at 5 5, Fig. 6. Figs. 6 and 7 are transverse sections at 6 T, Fig. 5. Fig. 8 is a transverse section at 8 8, Fig. 4. Figs. 9 and l0 are detail longitudinal sections at 9 l0, Fig. 5; and Fig. ll is a horizontallou gitudinal section at 11 l1, Fig. 8.
Our invention relates to certain improvements in registeringmeasures i'or dry-goods, &e.; and our invention consists in features of novelty hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, similar letters of reference in the various figures indicate like parts.
A represents a dry-goods counter of usual construction, and B represents our self-indicating measure, preferably inlaid or countersunk in the inside top edge of the counter next the clerk who operates it.
C is the operating thumb knob or key of the bell-crank lever C,that works in its chamber C5 within the instrument. (See Figs. 3, 4, and 5.) To the bell-crank lever is hinged or pivoted at C2 a pawl, C'which it operates when the key is depressed, the curved point or end CL of said pawl engaging with the teeth D of the rack-barl) (when thethumb knob or key is depressed operating the bell-crank lever,) advancingit longitudinally the length of a tooth. Rising at a right angle from one eX- tremity of said rack-bar is a vertical arm, D2, which is surmounted by an indicating-nger, D3, that as the rack-bar is moved travels over a graduated scale, E, in the chamber F, the finger pointing to the number on the graduated scale coincident With the number of yards measured. F is a glass protector that covers said chamber, and while it does not obstruct the view effectually guards from injury the traveling index-ringer and graduated scale. It also prevents the goods under measurement from interfering with the linger as it travels. (See Figs. l and 2.)
G is the sustaining-spring, that after each operation ofthe bell-crank lever returns it with the thumb-knob to its normal position ready for its next movement, and G is the spring which impresses the pawl of the bellcrank lever, enforcing its engagement with the rack, which it moves, (see Figs. 3, e, and 11,) the pawl being hinged at C* to admit of lateral movement.
H is a spring, to which is attached a dog, H',that engages the rack and prevents its return until the close ot' the measurement. when it and the actuating pawl ofthe bell-crank lever are simultaneously tripped and disengaged by a trip knob or trigger, I, forming a continuation ot' said dog, and which projects through an aperture, I, beneath the instrument. (See Figs. 5, 6, and 7.)
.I isa spiral spring, which (at'tertlie conclusion of a count) forces back the rack-bar with its traveling index-linger ready lor the next count. (See Fig. 5.)
J in same ligure is a long slotted box or chamber, in which the said spring operates.
The thumb-knob or operating-key C is at one end of a yard-measure, the other end otl which may either be at the far end ot' the instrument or marked in any other convenient way on the counter, &c.
In operation, as the forward end of the inaterial being measured reaches the thu nib-k nob, and a yard ofthe cloth has thus been measured, the clerks thumb depresses the knob, which, operating the bell-crank lever and its pawl, projects the rack bar(bearing the linger-index) longitudinally the length ot' a tooth, and the linger-index is thus carried a step along the graduated scale and counts one, and so on, yard by yard, until the amount required is measured. The tri p-knob or trigger connected to the spring-dog H is now made to trip the IOO thrown back to its initial position by the spiraly spring J, ready for another measurement and count. v
We have shown our measure as inlaid in theu top of a counter, with the figures pointing in the most easy position for the customer to distinguish the record,as our preferable plan; but We do not confine ourselves to this position or this mode of using the measure, as it is evident that the measure may be attached in any other convenient position desired, and also used, if required, independent of the counter.
Among the advantages in the use of this measure may be noted its mechanical certainty in counting and the liberty it gives the measuring-clerks to converse with customers on business matters without making errors in the measurement of the goods.
We claim as our invention-- 1. A registering measure comprising a frame, ascale, a bell-crank lever having aknob projecting through the frame, a sliding springpawl hinged to the bell-crank lever, a sliding spring rack-bar having an arm provided With an index-finger pointing to the scale, and a spring-bar retaining the rack-bar as it is adjusted by the pawl, substantially as set forth.
2. A registering measure comprising a frame, a scale, a bell-crank lever having a knob projecting through the frame, a pawl formed with a curved end and hinged to the bell-crank'- lever, spring bearing on the pawl, spring bearing on the bellcrank lever, sliding spring rack-bar having index-arm, and a spring-bar retaining the rack-bar as it is adjusted by the pawl, substantially as set forth. l
3. A registering measure comprising a frame, a scale, a bell-crank lever having a knob projecting through the frame at its outer end, a sliding pawl at its inner end, asliding spring rack-bar having index-arm, and a spring having a dog (for retaining the rack-bar as the latter is adjusted) formed with a trigger for releasing the dog, substantially as set forth.
4. A registering measure comprising a frame, ascale, a Spring bell-crankleverhaving a knob projecting through the frame, a'spring sliding pawl hinged to the bell-crank lever, a sliding spring rack'bar having an arm provided with an index-finger pointing to thescale, and a spring-bar having a dog provided with a trigger extending through the frame, substantially as set forth.
