T a/ZZ whom] it may con/007W."
Beit known that I, REUBEN REEVES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Streator, in the county of Lasalle and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Registers, of which the followingisaspeciiicatiou.
My invention relates to improvements in registers, and contemplates the provision ot a simple, compact, and reliable register designed more particularly` for facilitating the keeping of a record of thenumber of bottles or other articles made by workmen, either per diem or piece, in glass-factories.
It consists in a certain peculiar construction, the novelty, utility, and advantages of which will be fully understood from the following description and claim, when taken in conjunction with the accom panyin gd drawings, in whichp Figure lisafront elevation of my improved register with the docrof the case broken away; Fig. 2, a similar View with the door in its closed position; Fig. 3, a section taken on line 3 3 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 a section taken in the plane indicated by thelinelieof Fig. 3.
Similar letters of reference designate corresponding parts in all of the views of the drawings, referring to Which-= A is the case of the register, the-frontwall of which is preferably formed by a door a., having a glass b and a glazed or'unglazed opening e, and also having apoiuterd painted or otherwise formed `on the glass.
Bis a short shaft which is preferably thread*- ed and bears in the rear wall of the case; C, a rotary disk kmounted on the shaft opposite the glass l) and having twelve (more or less) numbered divisions on its face and one hundred and forty-four (more or less) teeth e on its perimeter and also havingA a cam f at its back; D, a rotary disk mounted below the disk C on a short shaft g and having circularlyarranged gures 0 to 23 on its face, designed to be exposed through the opening c, and also having twenty-four (more or less) teeth h at its back; E, a spring connected to the case and engaging the teeth e ot' disk C and having for its purpose to prevent retrograde movement 'of the latter; F, a spring connected to the case in a position to engage the teeth h of disk D, so as to prevent retrograde movement of the said disk; G,a plunger guided in the case and carryingaspringpawl t', arranged to engage the teeth e of disk C; H, a spring against which the lower end of the plunger impinges, said spring having for its purpose to return. the plunger to its normal position subsequent toa depression thereof, and I a spring connected to the case and arranged to bear against the perimeter of the camfand quickly take into the notch j thereof when said notch comes opposite its free end. Said spring I is equipped with a spring-arm I', arranged to engage the teeth 7i of the disk D, and consequently it will be observed that whenthespringltakes into notch j at the completion of arevolutiou of the disk C the spring-arm I will rotate the disk D a distance corresponding to that between the teeth 7L. l
The plunger G is provided with a head J, which might be formed integral with or fixed thereon without departing from 'my in Vention. I prefer, however, to provide the head with a threaded bore and to adjustably mount it on the upper threaded end portion ot' the plunger-rod, as shown, this in order that the stroke of the plunger may be regulated to turn the diskCthe distance of one, two, three, or more teeth, as desired, incident to each depression of the plunger. The operating vstroke of the plunger is obviously limited by the head .T bringing up against the upper end of the case A, and it may be increased by screwing the head upwardly on the rod and diminished by screwing the head downwardly. f In practice the operator holds the register in his hand and depresses the plunger Gr as one, two, three, or any other predetermined number of bottles are made. When the plunger is thus depressed, the disk C will be turned a distance corresponding to the length ot the stroke of the plunger, and the pointer CZ will apprise the recorder of the number of bottles made. l/Vhen the disk C completes its rst revolution, the spring I takes into the notch j of said disk and through the medium of its arm I turns the disk D the distance of one tooth,with the result that the numeral 1 will be exposed .through aperture c and indicate that a number of bottles or other articles corresponding to the number of teeth on the disk C have been made. The operation described is IOO repeated until the cipher on disk D is brought opposite the opening c, When those interested will be apprised of the fact that a number of bottles have been registered corresponding` to the number of teeth on the disk C multiplied by the number of teeth on the disk D. When it is desired to reset the register at Zero after the disk C has made but a few revolutions, the same may be readily accomplished by applying the key B' (shown in Fig. 3) to the shafts B g and turning the disks C D in the direction indicated by arrow in Fig. l.
While designed more particularly for registering the number of bottles and other articles made in glass factories, I desire it understood that my improved register may be used to advantage for facilitating the keeping of other records.
It will be appreciated from the foregoing that notwithstanding the reliability of my improved register' in practice andthe facility with which it may be operated it is simple, compact, and comprehensive in construction and embodies no delicate parts, such as are likely to get out ot order after a short period ot use. l
I have entered into a detailed description of the construction and relative arrangement el parts embraced in the present and preferred embodiment of my invention in order to impart a full, clear, and exact understanding of the same. I do not desire, however,
to be understood as ceniining myself to such specific construction and arrangement of ceases parts, as such changes or modifications may be made in practice as t'airly fall within the scope of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a register, the combination of a case having an opening c and a glass in its front Wall; said glass being provided With a pointer, a rotary disk mounted in the case opposite the glass b and having numbered divisions on its face, a rotary disk also mounted in the case and having a circular series of consecutive numbers on its face arranged to be exposed through the opening c of the case, means for rotating` the first-mentioned disk, a cam fixed with respect to said disk and having a notch in its perimeter, a ratchet fixed with respect to the second-mentioned disk, the ilat spring I connected at one end to the case and having its free end disposed against the perimeter of the cam and adapted to lateral, llat spring into the notch thereof, and also having the spring-arm I arrangedin engagement With the ratchet, and means for preventing retrograde movement ol the rotary disks.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
