l To all w21/0m it may concern.
Be it known that I, CHARLES A. WAGNER,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Im- My invention relatesA to a novel constructionA vin an automatic vending-machine, the object being to provide a device of this character of very simple and eiifie'ient construction; and it consists in the features of construction and combinations vof parts hereinafter fully described and claimed.

vIn the accompanying drawings, illustrating my invention, Figure 1 is a central vertical section of a machine constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.A Fig. 3 is afragmentary detail section on the line 3 8 ofFig. 2. Fig. 4 is a fragmentary detail section on the line i 4 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a detail fragmentary view in elevation, showing the method of locking the coin-receiver on the machine.
Referring now tosaid drawings, Aindicates the base, and B the hopper portion, of my vending-machine. side walls of said lbase portion A is a shaft C, carrying a drum provided with pockets D at diametrically opposite points, which are ad apted to alternatelybe filled from said hopper B.
hopper is. closed by thesolid part of said drum D until the next pocket registers with said mouth, while the 'contents of the iirst pocket are dumped into an inclined chute E and delivered into a pocket F on the outside of said base A. Said shaftC carries a wheel G, having recesses H at diametrically opposite points corresponding with saidv pockets of said drum and adapted to receive the coin. Adjacent .said wheel G is a ratchet-wheel I, provided with an elongated recess J opposite each of said recesses H of saidrwheel G. lA spring- Journaled in'bearings in the Serial No. 65,780. (No model.)
actuated dog K, Ipivotally mounted on one of the walls of said base A, engages said ratchetwheel and when resting in one of said elongated recesses J 1 holds said ratchet wheel against Vmovement greater than the peripheral length of said recess in either direction. Said ratchet-wheel Il is further provided onr one side with two pins L midway between said recesses J, which are adapted to be engaged by a spring-actuated dog M, pivotally secured to one of the walls of said base ,A and which is vlimited in its downward motion by means of a stop N on the wall of said base A, to which said dog is secured. The said dog K is of such width as to project over the wheel G and is beveled at its free end, as at O, said beveled portion O being adapted to be engaged by the projecting portion of a coin resting in one of said recesses H when said shaft lis turned, thereby raising saidr dog out of engagement with said ratchet-wheel until 'the same has passed the first tooth beyond the elongated recess, when it drops and again engages said ratchet-wheel, thereby preventing reverse motion of the shaft. Said shaft C may be given a half-turn by means of the crank P until the dog again rests in one of the recesses J, which prevents further movement. VThe recess H, containing the coin, having been inverted the coin drops out into the receiving-recess -Q in the bottom of base A.
The said dog M serves to hold the ratchetwheel I and wheel G normally at one limit of motion relatively to the elongated recess J,
engaged by said dog K, thereby holding the recess H in wheel G in alinement with the coin-slot `R, and as said shaft is turned said dog is forced out of the path of one-of the pins L and springs back into the path of theother. Removably mounted on said base A is a coinreceiver S, comprising a casing having parallel side walls and an inclined top T. Said 'side walls are each provided with a rib U adjacent to and parallel with said top T, thereby providing a guide for the coin connecting the receiving-slot in the front wall of said casing S with the coin-slot R. SaidA ribs U are out away to provide recesses into which the ends projecting lug W on said base A. One of the side walls of the receiver S is extended rearwardly to provide an eye X, which is adapted to register with a similar eye Y on the base A. By means of a padlock said receiver is locked on the base A, and if clogged the party in charge of the machine can easily remove the receiver and clear the same and then replace it.
rl`he base A is provided with a door Z through which the coin is removed.
I claim as my invention- 1. In a vending-machine, the combination with the casing, of a shaft journaled therein, a wheel secured to said shaft adjacent one of its ends, and provided with peripheral recesses, a ratchet-wheel secured to said shaft to one side.of the first-named Wheel, a pair of pins secured to the side of said ratchet-wheel, and a spring-actuated dog pivotally mounted in the casing and being in engagement with the said ratchet-wheel, and having its free end provided with a beveled extended portion projecting over the said first-named wheel, a spring-actuated dog in engagement with said pins,V and a stop secured to the said casing for limiting the downward movement of the said last-named pawl, substantially as described.
2. In mechanism ofthe character described. the combination of a shaft equipped atits outer end with actuating means, a coin-wheel fixed to said shaft and provided peripherally with coin-recesses, a ratchet-wheel iixed to rotate with said shaft and equipped with sets of teeth separated by spaces, the number of sets of teeth corresponding to the number of coinrecesses, and a pawl preventing retraction ol said ratchet-wheel.
3. In mechanism of the character described, the combination of a shaft, equipped at its outer end with an actuating means, a coin-wheel lixed to the inner end of said shaft and provided peripherally with coin-recesses, a ratchetwheel fixed to rotate with said shaft and equipped with sets of teeth separated by spaces, the num ber of sets of teeth corresponding with the number of coin-recesses, a pawl preventing the retraction of said ratchetwheel, studs projecting' from a lateral surface of said coin-wheel and separated by spaces between coin-recesses, a coin-chute leading to the periphery of said coin-wheel, and a pivoted spring-actuated member acting upon the studs of said coin-wheel and serving to bring the appropriate coin-recess into registration with said chute after each registration.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
