CLARENCE LINDEN SLEDGE, OF KYLE, TEXAS.
COIN-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 653,825, dated July 17, 1900.
Application filed January 30,1900. Serial No. 3,375. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CLARENCE LINDEN SLEDGE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kyle, in the county of Hays and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Coin- Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to coin-holders for holding coins of different denominations in given amounts for circulating purposes or for use on counters or other places for supporting coins in convenient manner for distribution or use; and the object of the improved device is to provide a simple, strong, and durable holder capable of being reduced to compact form for storage or transportation and also capable of movement to position the coin for easy access thereto and withdrawal of the coin. It is also intended to have the improved device proportioned in such manner as to receive specified amounts of similar coin and to dispose the coin therein or remove it therefrom without unfastening or disconnecting any of the parts and thereby facilitate the arrangement of coin in bulk.
With these and other objects in View the invention primarily consists in the provision of opposite heads movably connected by intermediate skeleton frames and capable of being collapsed for reduction to compact form.
The invention further consists in the details of construction and arrangement, which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of one form of the improved device shown arranged for use. Fig. 2 is a longitu dinal vertical section of the device in collapsed condition and having the features of construction illustrated in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of another form of the improved device. Fig. is a detail perspective view of a skeleton frame used in connection with the improved device.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to indicate corresponding parts in the several views.
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, the numerals l and l designate upper and lower heads having opposite pairs of arms 2 and an interme diate connectingweb 3, the ends of the arms being turned in against the inner faces of the heads to form the bearing-loop 4, and movably mounted in said loops are opposite skeleton frames 5, which are preferably made of wire of a suitable gage and have their ends provided with interlocking eyes 6, located in the spaces between the bearing-loops in the lower head. The metal or other material of which the heads are composed is stifi and strong enough to preserve the desired shape of the latter, and when the extremitiesof the arms 2 are turned in against the inner faces of the heads said ends will be held against loosening and are slightly lengthened for this purpose and to give them a greater purchase or bearing. It is preferred that the heads and skeleton frames be formed of metal for the purposes of resisting wear and increasing the durability of the improved device, and when collapsed one head is pressed downwardly until all the parts assume the position shown by Fig. 2, and it will be ob served that a great many of the improved devices can be packed in bulk for transportation or storage when so arranged. Moreover, the interlocking eyes can be readily connect= ed or disposed in engagement by the forma= tion of the openings between the arms 2, and the frictional contact of the movably-con-' nected parts is also reduced by such open construction in view of the fact that the saidinterlocking eyes will be located in the open spaces between the arms.
In Fig. 3 a slightly-difierent form of the improved device is shown and includes continuous heads 7 with the opposite end extremities turned inwardly against the inner opposing faces to produce elongated bearingloops 8, the said extremities being left slightly open, if desired, in the manufacture of the 1 same for convenience in after assemblage with the skeleton frames 9 to thereby provide means for further reducing the space occupied by the several parts in bulk and before theyare operatively connected. The frames in this instance are continuous, as shown by Fig. 4, and may be constructed by welding the ends together, if made of wire, or could be cut from sheet metal, which is an obvious equivalent.
There are several changes or modes of construction that would be naturally suggested to a skilled mechanic or manufacturer in the IOC) Construction of this device and fully within the intent and purpose of the invention and also including the essential features, which are the two heads movably connected by intermediate skeleton frames, and it is therefore proposed to adopt all changes in proportion, form, and minor details'that are necessary in the several applications of the device, and in filling the same with coin the operation is as follows: The coin is first disposed adjacent the heads and gradually filled toward the center, the last fewpieces of coin being inserted at or near the middle, and in emptying the device the reverse of the'operation just set forth is pursued, and the employment of the skeleton frames materially lightens the construction, as well as maintaining' the strength necessary.
The improved coin-holder is designed to be used with coins of a diameter somewhat greater than the distance between the wires of the frame, and in the operation of inserting' coins in the holder the said wires are slightly sprung or caused to yield.
Labels or other marking devices, or even advertising matter or identifying means, may
be applied to the heads, and, if desired, the parts may be ornamented by plating or any preferred material used in their construction, though it is intended for economy in manufacture to make the heads of sheet metal and the skeleton frames of wire.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- A coin-holder comprising opposite heads and completely-open wire frames, the opposite end portions of the latter being pivotally connected to opposite extremities of each head, the distance between the wire frames and the wires of the latter being less than the diameter of the coins the holder is designed to contain, and the heads and frames collapsible to bring the said heads in approximately the same horizontal plane.
In testimony that I claim the foregoin'g'a's my own I have hereto afiixed" my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
CLARENCE LINDEN SLEDGE.
