Abstract
A device for the hand packaging of coins into paper covered cylinders, consisting of a sliding base surface on which the paper coin wrapper is placed, with transverse rods spaced to hold the proper quantity of coins, on edge, on the coin wrapper, and end stops to limit the proper quantity of coins. Sliding of the base rotates the coins and the coin wrapper about the coins, forming a neat cylindrical package. The end stops of the device are latched out of place to permit folding and tucking of the wrapper ends, and the removal of the coin package.

LOUARTERS, NICKELS PENN/ES, owes com PACKAGER SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a hand operated device for the packaging of coins into cylindrical paper covered units.
An advantage of this invention is that it is light and portable, making it suitable for use on a small cashiers desk. The device may be readily operated with little instruction and eliminates the task of counting the number of coins per package, while simplifying the task of wrapping the package.
A further advantage of the device is that the task of wrapping coins may be interrupted repeatedly without interfering with the nature of the operation. During interruptions, the coins and wrappers will remain in unchanged relation to the device, without the necessity of being hand held.
The invention is fitted to wrap packages of the conventional differently sized coins in use in this country, but is adaptable for being fitted to wrap coins of other sizes, and other quantities per package.
The device consists ofa base on which a sliding member rests. A series of transverse rods mounted above the base are spaced apart so that each adjacent pair of rods provide the proper width to hold a package of the size coins wrapped between that pair of rods.
End stops are provided to permit the proper quantity of coins, forming a package, to be placed between the appropriate pair of transverse rods and over a paper wrapper laid on the slider lying on the base. Movement of the slider acts to rotate the coins and to wrap the paper wrapper cylindrically about the coins. After the paper has been wrapped about the coins, pressure on a button acts to release one set of end stops, permitting removal of the wrapped open cylinder of coins, and permitting the manual crimping of the ends of the cylinder to completely enclose the wrapper.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The objects and features of the invention may be understood with reference to the following detailed description of an illustrative embodiment of the invention, taken together with the accompanying drawing in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the coin wrapping apparatus comprising the invention;
FIG. 2 is a front view of the apparatus;
FIG. 3 is a cross-section taken at line 33 of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a package of coins wrapped by the device.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Turning now descriptively to the drawing, in which similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views, FIG. 1 illustrates the apparatus with slider 20 lying on the upper horizontal surface 18 of base 11. Transverse rods 21, 22, 23, 24 and 25 are fastened to the opposed vertical walls 33R and 33L of the sides of the base 11, and freely pass through movable rail bar 30. Projecting parallel short rods fastened to rail bar 30, form end stops 26 and together with the end stops 27, projecting from fixed slde wall 33R, limit the length of a cylinder of coins when the rail bar rests against vertical fingers 31.
The spacing between the transverse rods 21, 22, 23, 24 and 25 is such that a packaged cylinder 40 of coins of the denomination to be wrapped in the space between the pair of rods 21 and 22, rests against rods 21 and 22 when cylinder lies on slider 20. In the embodiment shown, 50 pennies may be wrapped between rods 21 and 22 to form package 40, while a different quantity of nickels, dimes and quarters may be wrapped between the other pairs of rods 22 and 23, 23 and 24, and 24 and 25 respectively.
In operation, a coin wrapper 15 is placed on the slider 20 with one end of the coin wrapper 15 resting against one of the adjoining transverse bars 22 as shown in FIG. 3. The proper quantity of coins 16 are added in the space between the end stops 26 and 27 and the slider moved at right angles to the axis of the coin pack.
Continued movement of the slider 20 causes the paper 15 to wrap itself cylindrically about the pack of coins 16, as shown in FIG. 2. The rail bar 30 and end stop 26 is then moved away from the wrapped coins 16, by the lowering of fingers 31, accomplished by pressure on button 12. The open ends 17 of the paper wrapper 15 may now be crimped against the end coins 16 and the package of coins removed from the apparatus. The ends 17 may then be completely folded into place as shown in FIG. 4 to form an enclosed package 40 of coins of the quantity pre-determined by the spacing of end stops 26 and 27 between the specific transverse rods 21 and 22 utilized.
Since obvious changes may be made in the specific embodiment of the invention described herein, it is indicated that all matter contained herein is intended as illustrative and not as limiting in scope.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
1. A device for the hand packaging of coins into a paper covered cylinder of a uniform quantity of coins, said device including a horizontal base on which a sliding member rests loosely, at least one pair of transverse rods fastened parallel to each other and at right angles to the direction of motion of the sliding member,
said transverse rods being spaced from each other such that a wrapped package of coins lies on the sliding member and is tangent to each of the transverse rods, together with an end stop fastened to a vertical wall fastened to the base, and
another end stop fastened to a movable rail such that a cylinder of coins of the proper quantity and denomination rest in between said end stops when the movable rail is located at the wrapping position, permitting a paper coin wrapper to be placed on said sliding member, and the proper quantity of coins to be placed edgewise on said paper coin wrapper between the end stops and between the pair of transverse rods, so that sliding motion of the slider resulting in rotating the coins and winding the paper wrapper cylindrically about said coins,
together with means to release the movable rail from the wrapping position so that it may be moved away from the coins, together with the end stop fastened to said movable rail, allowing the wrapped package to be freely lifted from the device.
2. The combination recited in claim 1 in which several parallel transverse rods are located adjacent to each other so as to provide for the wrapping of coins of various diameters and quantities, with each pair of transverse rods located from each other so as to hold which is pressed to release the movable rail.
