CASH-CARRIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 494,783, dated April 4, 1893.
Application filed fieptember 17, 1892. derial No. 446,130- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE P. KENNEY, of Watertown, in the county of Jefferson, in the State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cash Carriers, of which the following, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a full, clear,
and exact description.
My invention relates to cash carriers of the class in which a cord or wire is drawn along and carries the cash-box with it, and particularly to the mechanism for drawing or operating the movable cord.
My object is to produce a cash carrier in which the cash-box carrying cord is readily drawn in either direction for the purpose of transporting the cash-box, and comprising an endless cord mounted upon suitable rotating drums, a train of gearing connected to each drum, a ratchet gear and a lever engaging therewith whereby the operation of a lever rotates the drum at that end of theline, means being provided whereby said ratchet gear may be rotated either way as desired, and whereby when full momentum is imparted to a drum, it is automatically shifted out of engagement with its actuating train of gearing; or can be held normally out of such engagement.
My invention consists in the several novel features of construction and operation hereinafter described and which are specifically set forth in the claims hereunto annexed. It is constructed as follows, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1, is a side elevation of the mechanism for actuating the box-carrying cord, part of which is also shown. Fig. 2, is a like view of the same with said mechanism only at one end thereof. Fig. 3, is a horizontal sectional elevation on line so 6, Fig. 1,of the frame, one of the drums, part of the train of driving gears, and the upper end of the ratchet lever adapted to engage with the rigid collar upon the drum shaft to shift it longitudinally. Fig. 4, is a plan view of the drum shaft. Fig. 5, is an enlarged longitudinal sectional elevation of the ratchet lever and the sliding, douhie-faced dog therein adapted to engage with either of the racks upon the ratchet gear, at will, in order to rotate it in opposite directions. Fig. 6, is a transverse sectional elevation of the same.
A, is the frame, composed of vertical side bars, and a rail or rails connecting them, adapted to be secured to or suspended from a ceiling, or otherwise mounted to carry the mechanism. A driving ratchet andgear -1 is mounted upon a shaft suitably journaled in the frame, having gear teeth out upon its periphery and provided on its face with the circular ratchets .2 and 3, the teeth of which are out right and left hand. This gear meshes with the pinion 5 and drives the gear --6, both of them being secured upon a shaft journaled in the frame; the gear (imeshes with and drives the pinion -7- and gear 8-, both secured upon a shaft journaled in the frame; the gear 8- meshing with and driving the pinion 9-, and drum 10-, both being secured upon the arbor 11- journaled in the frame. This arbor -11 is provided with collars --12 and -13-, detachably secured thereon in any ordinary manner. This arbor is adapted to slide longitudinally in its hearings, to throw the pinion -9 out of, or into engagement with the gear -8-, one way compressing the spring 14, hearing against the end of said arbor, and being thrown the other way by said spring to bring said pinion and gear into engagement. for the purpose of multiplying the movement of the ratchet gear, so that its partial rotation will create a rapid rotation of the drum; and the number of gears and pinions in the train may be varied, as desired.
.A lever -l5 is pivoted upon the shaft of the ratchet gear and is provided with a longitudinal slot-way, and l6 is a sliding dog loose therein, and provided upon its lower end with oppositely faced teeth, to properly engage with the opposite faced teeth upon the ratchets -2 and -3, and b is a rod connected to said dog and extending down toward end of the lever, here shown as a convenient means for sliding said dog and its teeth, out of engagement with one ratchet and into engagement with the other, according to whichever way it is desired to rotate the ratchet gear and the drum. The upper end of said lever is provided with an angular extension and an extensible arm -17- mounted thereon, as by the slot and set screw -18-, shown. The inner face of this arm is pro This whole train of gearing is,
8 and move the drum laterally also, as shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 4:, and com press the spring, so that when the wedge is removed by the reversal of the lever, it will re-aet and throw said pinion back into en-' gagement with said gear.
The cash-box B is of any ordinary construction, and is adapted to be secured to and The rod suspended from the cord a-. b connected to the dog 16 may also operate as a spring to retain its teeth in engagetnent.
By pulling down on the lever in Fig. 2, the drum is rotated so as to draw the cord and box fromright to left; the box being on the lower portion of the cord. When pulling down on the lever as soon as sufficient momentum Or speed of rotation is irnparted'to the drum, and therebysuflicient vtravel is given .to the cord, the engagement of the wedge with said pinion,disengages it .from its driving gear, and the apparatus stops, with the box at .its destination. To reverse the movement, the dog is shifted from one ratchet to theother, which will then rotate the mechanism in the opposite direction.
dog adapted to engage with either of said ratchets, all in combination, substantially as set forth.
2. Acash carrier comprisinga frame, drums mounted upon arbors, a cord supported upon and passing around said drums, a pinion upon one of said arbors, a driving gear provided withratchets upon itsface, and a'train of multiple gears betweenrthedriving gearsand said pinion, a ratchet lever rovided with a dog adapted to engage with either of said ratchets, and an arm extensibly connected to the top of said lever and adapted to engage with said pinion to throw it, out ofits-engagement with the adjacent gears; all in combination as set forth.
In witness whereof I have hereunto-set :m y hand this 9th day of September, 1892.
