The upper sections 5 Figure (l) is a plan view of a case containengage with the lower sections so that the deingmyinvention, showing the operating keys, pression of B depresses B and the depresand opening with the sections of paper upon sion of B depresses B, &c.

By means of the construction above described the upper sections of the finger bars are lifted with the lid or cover, and therefore, offer no obstacle in examining the inside of the case.
The lower section of the finger bar, in the example of my invention illustrated in the drawings, is provided with a slot 2, through which slot passes the main shaft 8., the slot allowing for the longitudinal movement of the finger-bar. Each finger bar is provided with a foot 3, adapted to depress the dog, as hereinafterdescribed, and also, provided with the wedge or cam 1, as shown in Fig. (7) adapted to move the spoolinto operative connection with the shaft S.
C, C, C, and O, are the spools upon which the paper strips are rolled after the entries are made; and C C 0 and C are paper holding spools.
I D, D and D, represent the paper strips. I have shown fourof these strips, but it is evident that the number of spools and the number of strips may be varied. The paper strip is attached at one end to the spool. I have shown in Fig. (8) aconvenientmethod of making such an attachment.
W shows a wedge-shaped slot or opening, and X a pivoted latch having a straight side adapted to fit into the slot 'W, in such a manner as to retain the end ofthe paper securely in the slot.
E is a plate beneath the paper supporting the same so that it may be written upon; and E is a guide frame for guiding the paper strips.
E is a bar extending across frame 1616, and serves as a stop for the springs U, U, U, U, and also as a guide for the finger bars. The springs U, U, &c., serve to raise the finger bars to normal position after being pressed downward.
FF are compression springs serving to press together the paper spools C, 0 0 O, in order to create a sufficient tension on the paper to keep it taut.
FF are disks forming abutting surfaces for the action of the springs.
FF are thumb nuts for adjusting the spools upon the shaft.
13 is the shaft which supports the paper spools.
Beneath the paper spools I place a dog or detent G which is fulcrumed upon the rod G. The rear end of the dog G is bent downward as shown by 15, and passes through an opening in the locking plate G (see Figs. 2 and 3). The plate G has an opening prefererably beveled at its upper part as shown. The bent part 15 of the dog is also preferably beveled near its end; the object of beveling the end of part 15 is to facilitate the removal of the dog from its locking position. The plate G has a longitudinal surface G between the opening and its rear end. The object of this horizontal surface is to hold the front end of the dog down while the plate is passing under the rear end of the dog as the drawer is moved out of the case, the plate G being attached to the drawer, preferably to its rear end P. Above the drawer, which is shown by P, is the horizontal partition Q, which partition supports the dog, the paper spools and their operating mechanism.
G are springs which return the dog to its locking position after it has been unlocked by the depression of the finger bars. In order to assist the springs I sometimes use lugs 4-4. The lugs 4-4 are beveled and adapted to engage with the money drawer; the form of the lugs 4-4: and the attachment to the'dog are shown in Fig. (4.)
O is a spring which pushes the drawer P outwardly as soon as it has been released by the lifting of the rear end of the dog. The shaft has rigid with it the ratchet wheel H, which is operated by means of the pawl H, which pawl is supported upon the pivoted arm I. The arm I is pivoted preferably upon or substantially in a line with the end of shaft S, at one end, and at the other end is pivoted to the push red I; the same pivot may be used for attaching the arm I to the push rod 1 and to the pawl II The push rod is preferably provided with a slot 1, and a bolt or pin 1", passing through the slot into the frame 16. To the lower end of the push rod is a latch 1" which swings freely in one di rection, but is made rigid by a pin so that it cannot swing in an opposite direction.
J is a cam attached to the drawer P, which engages with I when the drawer is moved outwardly. At the front end of the dog is a transverse bar 5 connecting the forked side pieces of G and provided with one or more lugs 66, &c., preferably one for each finger bar, and the foot 3 of the finger bar, when the bar is depressed, comes in contact with one of the lugs 6, as shown in Fig. (4) and depresses the front end of dog G, raising the rear part 15 from its locking position.
T is a lock bar supported at either end by suitable journals, and also provided with a slotted arm at either end, shown by R. The arms R are rigid with T, and are each provided with a slot R. The dog has two projecting arms each provided with a pin R, moving in the slot. The construction is shown in Fig. (3). The lock-bar T is provided with lugs 7, 7, 7, 7, one for each finger bar. As the front end of the dog turns from G as a center, and the lugs 7, 7, 7, 7, turn from T as a center, a much shorter distance, the front end of the dog G is depressed, and the lugs 7, 7, &c., will be carried toward the lugs 6 on the dog, and being above them will be carried over them. Thus, if the finger-bar is depressed, its foot 3 will press downward upon lug o, as shown in Fig. (4), and depress the lug, and the front end of the dog to the position shown in Fig. 6, when the lug7 on the lockbar T will pass above the foot 3, and lock and retain the finger-bar down until the dog is released at its rear end from the surface G-- that is, when the foot of the'finger-bar has depressed the front end of the dog by pressing upon the lug 6, the pins R moving downward in the slots R turning down the lock bar T with its lugs 7, 7, 850., one of which lugs is brought over the foot 3 of the depressed finger bar. The front end of the dog being depressed its rear end 15 is raised out of its lockin g position, and as the drawer moves forward the lower end of 15 rests for a moment upon the flat surface G", which holds the depressed finger bar down until G" is passed over by the part 15, or more strictly, until the surface G has passed beyond 1-5, when the dog and depressed finger bar return to normal position. The object of this arrangement is to allow the depressed finger-bar to retain the rigid connection between its adjacent paper spool and shaft S, until the dog and ratchet-wheel have moved the spool. As the finger-bar is depressed (see Fig. 7) the cam surface 1 bears against a washer 9, which in turn bears against the spool O, pressing the same into engagement with the cone V, thus temporarily attaching O and V. The coneV is provided with a bushing Y, which is made rigid with the shaft S, by means of a pin or key 11. A washer 12 is preferably used between pin 11 and the finger-bar, and acts as a guide for the bars.
10,10 are springs,one for each spool,adapted to disconnect the friction clutch when the finger-bar is raised. The form of clutch may be varied without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Attached to and moving with the drawer is a trip K, which, as the drawer is moved outwardly, engages with and operates the alarm. A plate is attached to the case by any suitable means, and a bent arm pivoted at its elbow to the plate forms the striker. This is shown by K. The swinging latch K", pivoted to the striker K' engages with a trip K as the drawer is moved outwardly drawing the striker away from the alarm bell N, until the trip K passes a sufficient distance to become disengaged from the pivoted latch K with the spring M (see Fig. 9) by its tension brings the striker in contact with the bell and gives the alarm. Astop pin 8 prevents the pivoted latch K from moving in any one direction without moving the striking arm, but as the drawer is shoved into the case the latch K swings upward and passes over the trip K, and again drops down into position to again operate the alarm mechanism as soon as the drawer is again opened.
L is a stop for limiting the movement of the striking arm, and it is preferably provided with an elastic covering shown by Z.
The drawer being closed and locked, let the operator make his entry upon any one of the paper strips-for example, upon strip D. Then in order to open the drawer, he depresses the finger-bar B, when the cam surface (1) of the finger-bar bearing against the washer 9 moves the spool G into engagement with cone V, thus attaching the spool 0 through the cone V to the shaft S.
In Fig. (7) B shows the position of the finger-bar before it is depressed, and B shows one of. the finger-bars depressed to a point which completes the coupling between the spool and cone. As the finger-bar is depressed, its foot 3 comes in contact with the lug (6), bearing down the front end of the pivoted dog G ing position allowing the spring 0 to open the drawer. The depression of the front end of the dog, turns locking bar T and one of the lugs 7 moves over the foot 3, thereby preventing the depressed finger-bar from again rising until the front end of the dog is again raised. The part 15 of the dog being raised is held up by the horizontal surface G until such surface has been carried beyond 15 by the movement of the drawer, when the spring G" returns the dog to its normal position, and the spring U raises the depressed fingerbar, and the spring 10 disconnects the engagement between the spool and the shaft S. Upon the lifting of the part 15 of the dog G, from its locking position, and as the drawer moves outwardly, cam J is brought in contact with latch I of the push rod 1, giving it a longitudinal movement, and lifting the arm I with its pawl H which engages witha ratchet'wheel H, turning H one notch forward, and with it the shaft S, and the paper spool, which has been temporarily connected to the shaft S, by the depression of the finger-bar, thus advancing the paper upon which the entry has been made. This completes the operation of this part of my invention, and the replacement of the drawer in itslocking position leaves the parts in normal position to be again used. When the alarm is used the operation of the parts are as above described, and as the drawer is moved outwardly, the trip K comes in contact with the latch K", turning the striker K away from the bell until the trip has passed the latch and released the same; whereupon the spring M acts to givethe bell a quick stroke from the striking arm as above described. The mechanism composing the alarm is so placed that the alarm is given almost immediately after the drawer is unlocked.
I have described above my preferred form of mechanism, but it will be evident that changes in form may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim to have invented, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of a movable drawer, a frame or case supporting such drawer, and a plurality of spools adapted to contain strips of writing material, each spool moved independently by the movement of the drawer, for the purpose specified.
2. The combination of a drawer, a plurality of spools, a plurality of paper strips adapted and lifting its rear end 15 from its lockeach to receive a column of figures, and suitable mechanism for connecting any one of such spools to the movable drawer whereby it may be moved independently of the other spools, for the purpose specified.
3.
