Description

NITED STATES PATENT I JoHNfH. sUTLIFF, or ALBANY, New YORK.
COUPON-ORDER RECORD-BOARD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 353,008, dated November 23l 1886. Application iled December 15, 1885. Serial No. 185,774. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.:
Beit known that I, JOHN H. SUTLIFF, of the city and county of Albany, in the State of New York, have invented a new. and useful `Coupon-Order Record-Board, of which the requisite coupons are not presented at the tim the purchases are made.
The objects of my invention are, rst, to provide a simple and convenient means for ascertaining at a glance whether any goods have been obtained for which the purchaser has not delivered the required coupon orders, and, if so, to what amount; second, to afford means for collecting the coupon orders from any particular bookin a special receptacle having a number that corresponds to the number of the book; and, third, to avoid the necessity for entering in an account-book the purchases made by coupon-book holders.
The coupon order-books are numbered consecutively, and each book has its corresponding number above aV hook and receptacle on the record-board, the hook for holding the memoranda relating to the corresponding book and the receptacle for receiving the coupons taken from said book.
'The record-board is provided lwith grooves for receiving removable slips which contain the numbers of the coupon order-books, so that as soon as one series of the books is used up the number-slips corresponding to that series herein referred to and form part of this specii flcation, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my record-board in a closed condition, with one` oftheremovable number-slips partially drawn out; Fig. 2, a perspective of the same with the front thrown partially open, and Fig. 3 a per-- spective view of one of the continued numberslips.
As represented in the drawings, A is the face of my'record-board, and B the receptaclecase, to which said face-board is hinged or otherwise attached.
The face-board A is provided with a series of transverse grooves, a, for holding the removable slips G, each of which is divided into spaces and has a series of consecutive numbers thereon. Hooks a are fixed in the faceboard A, so as to be directly under each of the figures on the slips C. Said hooks are provided for the purpose of receiving memorandum-slips of purchases made by the owner of any coupon order-book, for which the coupon orders are not delivered, the presence of such memorandum on any hook being evidence at a glance that coupons are due from the order-book having a number corresponding to that of the hook on which the slips are placed. Openings a2 are made through the face-board A,for the purpose of dropping the coupons into their appropriate receptacle in the case B. Said openings, as shown in the drawings, are below the numbers on the slips C, but when preferred said openings may be made above their appropriate numbers.
The ease B is designed to be attached in any convenient place to a vertical wall or partition, and it contains a series of receptacles or pigeon-holes,77 b, of which there should be one .for each number on the-faceboard, and they should be so arranged that an opening, et?, will lead directly into the receptacle that is appropriated to the number above that particular opening. Access is obtained to the receptacles b by swinging open the face-board A, as shown in Fig. 2, but at other times said faceboard should remain closed and secured.
As fast as a series of coupon-books having numbers that correspond to the numbers on the slips C are used up, the old numberslips should be removed and new sli ps, having numbers continued from the last on the lower slip in the board, bezinserted in their' places. A sample of such slip, designed to be inserted in the upper groove of the board, is shown in Fig. 3.
. When preferred, the faceboard A may be .i used Withoutareceptacle-case, and under such of a receptacle-case to which the said face l circumstances the openings a2 may be omitted board is hinged or otherwise attached, confrom said board. taining a series of receptacles which corre- I claim as my invent-ionspend in positions to the openings through the I 5 5 In a coupon-order record-board, the conibiface-board, as and for the purpose herein speci nation, with a face-board having transverse ed. grooves for containin removable numberslips, and provided witth a series of hooks cor- JOHN H' SUTLIFF responding to the numbers on said slips, and Witnesses:
