CHECK-PROTECTOR STAMP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 23, 1907.
Application filed January 31, 1906. Serial No. 298,762-
.To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, TAYLOR S. BUCK, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Check-Protector Stamps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a check protector stamp for preventing the fraudulent raising of bank check from a smaller to a larger sum, the object being to provide a check protector which will not emboss or puncture the paper, or otherwise thicken or weaken it and which is comparatively cheap, easily and quickly applied, and which is perfectly effectual in showing at once any attempt to raise the check.
I a sectional plan view taken on line as x of Fig.
1. Fig. 3 is a bottom view of the check protector, and Fig. 4: is a sectional plan view on line y y of Fig. 1, showing the top of the pro tector.
In the drawings 2 designates the body of the check protector stamp, 3 the handle, 4 the permanent or stationary type or die carried by the body 2, and 5 the index pointer which is mounted upon the lower end of the journal 6, which in this instance is the lower end of the handle. The permanent or stationary die 4 comprises a series of numbers as shown in Fig. 3 designating sums of money, and as here shown the numbers run from 5 to 105, but it is manifest that any sums of money may be designated either by figures or other characters. The characters are by preference formed as a part of a soft india rubber ring or bed 7 secured to the under surface of the body 2. The index ointer is by preference formed as a part 0' a soft india rubber disk 8, and on this disk is formed letters to print the words Not over and the word dollars.
On the top of the body 2 is laced or formed a dial 9 which correspon s to the printed character on the bottom of the body; and the handle 3 is provided with a pointer 10 which corresponds with the index pointer 5 so that by turning the handle in the aperture 12 in the body so that the pointer 10 indicates any desired number on the dial 9, the
The journal 6 of the handle is formed with a circumferential groove 13 in its outer surface, and the body 2 is formed with one or more, preferably two, passages 14, 1 1, which intersect the groove in the handle, and in these passages are inserted rods or pins, 15, preferably two brass rods, so that they engage with the groove and lock the handle in place, but at the same time allow it to be rotated but under friction from contact with the rods. A screw 16 is inserted in the body so that its inner end impinges upon one of the said rods. .By means of this screw the rod against which it operates may be adjusted or ressed inward to take up wear and to reguate the tension upon the handle.
When the handle is turned so that the pointer 10 indicates the number onthe dial 9 which most nearly corresponds with the amount for which the check is drawn, the impression of the protector is placed upon the check. In this way the index 5 in the print or impression on the check indicates the amount for which the check is drawn, and in any effort to raise the check, the print or impression of the pointer and of the other matter on the disk would have to be eradicated and another print or impression made, and this being a practical impossibility without detection, the protector stamp becomes a perfect safeguard against the raising of checks.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The main body having an aperture therein and formed with a hole intersecting the said aperture, said body being formed with another hole intersecting said first mentioned hole, a screw inserted in said last men tioned hole, a journal having a circumferential groove formed therein, and a rod inserted in said. first mentioned hole and lying in said groove, substantially as described.
2. A main body having an aperture there in, a handle formed with a groove and journaled in said body, a friction piece held by said body and groove and a lateral adjusting screw for said friction piece, substantially as described.
