Application filed March 6, 1907. Serial no. 360,840.
-To all whom it may con cern:
Be it known that I, TALT'ERSAMS, a citizen of the i My invention has for its object the verysimple c nstruction of a savings bank into which coin may readily be inserted and access to which may be had by simple means. 1
In practicing my invention, I so construct one of the wall portions that it is changeable 'in shape, to
which end I preferably slit this wall portioriand permit 7 the margins of said slit to overlap, this wall portion thus being adjustable with the aid of a tool. The adjustable wall portion is desirably made of sheet metal possessing sufficient resiliency so that when the tool is removed, the said wall portion will resume its original shape to restore the bank to its normal condition. The Wall portion of the bank thus modified in structure constitutes a contractible and expansible wall portion. The said wall portion that is thus made changeable in size, is desirably ring-shaped and preferably has separable interlocking engagement with at least one end wall and desirably two end walls, the said end walls preferably having inturned flanges that interlock with the edges of the ring-shaped wall portion, when expanded, the edge portions of the ring-shaped wall being desirably flared for this purpose. The slitin the ring-shaped wall portion dcsirably extends entirely -throughout its'length so that when a suitable tool is applied, such as a spanner clamp, the circular Wall portion may be sufficiently contracted to become disengaged from its end walls, whereupgn access to the bank may be had. Not only is there an advantage in having the bank thus accessible, but the component parts thereof are readily assembled by means of my improved construction, by the manufacturer as well as 'the user.
I will explain my invention more fully by reference to the accompanying drawing, showing the preferred embodiment thereof, in which- Figure I is a view in elevation of the bank. Fig. 2 is a sectional view on line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view on line.3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 shows a,-form of tool that may be employed to collapse the ringsliaped wall.
Like parts are indicated by' similar characters of reference throughout the different figures.
There are but three component parts of the bank illustrated, one of which is the ring-shaped wall portion a, while the others of which are the disk end walls b c. The coin passage may be provided in any suitable portion of the bank structure, the coin passagebeing indicated at d in the ringshaped wall a. I have provided a coin channel at d which permits the coin readily to be inserted, but prevents it from being readily withdrawn, though I do not wish to be limited to the means employed for the purpose of preventing the withdrawal of coin. The end walls are provided with inturned flanges of that areadapted to receive the flaring edge portions of the wall a. The wall a is desirably slit, so that it may have overlapping end portions, as indicated at g. a The tool h indicated in Fig. 4, may be encircled about the wall portiona, and when contracted by hand pressure, may increase-the overlap at g until the wall a is sufiiciently reduced in diameter I to permit its disengagement fromone or both of the end'walls b c, whereupon the contents of the bank may be removed. The tool h has a lug h on its inner surface whereby to promote the engagement of said tool with the ring-shaped wall portion a. The portions margini'ng the slit in the wall a are desirably overlapped slightly whenthe bank walls are assembled, so that movement of the portions margining the slit toward each other-may at all times be assured. Moreover, by this overlapping feature, no opening need be normally presented there, and, therefore, it is not necessary to extend the end walls to cove said opening. .The resiliency of the wall element a is sufiiciently great so that very positive engagement between said wall portion and the wall portions b and c is assured, the oflice of the tool h being required in order to overcome this resiliency sufficiently to enable the assembly of the parts a b c. To reassemble the parts, the tool it is again compressed sufliciently to reduce the diameter of the walla so that it may be engaged at its flaring ends with the insetting flanges e.f, this engagement of the wall a with the end walls b and a being reffected when pressure upon the tool h is removed.
While I have herein shown and particularly described the preferred embodiment of. mg -invention, I do not wish to be limited to the precise construction 1. 'A bank structurerincludlng an intermediate wall nor.- tion, and "two end wall portions, said intermediate wall ,portion being slit along its length, whereby it is made changeable in size throughout, and having separable interlocking engagement at its ends with the end wall portions,
. the edge portions of the central wall portion being. flared outwardly, while the edge portions of the end walls are formed to constitute inturned flanges, whereby the inter locking engagement between the central wall portion and the end wall portions is afforded, the portions margiuing the slit in the central wall portion overlnpplng when the bank parts are assembled.
2. A bank structure including an intermediate Wuli por-,
tion, and two end wall portions, said intermediate wall portion being slit along its length, whereby it is made changeable in size throughout, and having separable interlooking engagement at its ends with the end wall portions, the edge portions ofthe central wall portion being flared outwardly, while the edge portions ofthe end walls are formed to constitute inturned flanges, whereby. the interlocking engagement between the central wall portion and the end wall portions is afforded.
3. A bank structure including an intermediate wall portion, and two end wall portions encompassing the intermediate wall portion and interlocking therewith, said internicdiatewali portion being silt along its length, whereby it is made contraetible in size throughout to release it from engagement with the end wall portions, and having sepw rnble interlocking engagement at its ends with the end wall portions, the portions margining the slit in the central wall portion overlapping seinbled:
4. A bank structure including an intermediate wail portion, and two end wall portions encompassing the intermediate wall portion, said intermediate Wail portion being slit along its length, whereby it is made contructible in when theJmnk parts are as ,i'otii day of February A. 1)., 100?.
size thi'oughout to release it from engagement with the end wall portions, nnd'having separable interlocking en gagemen't at its ends with the end wall portions.
5. A bank structure including a resiiient 'wall portion, and an end wall portion encompassing the resiiient wall portion and interlocking therewith, snid resiiieni wail portion being slit, whereby it is ninde contraeiible in size to release it from engagement with the end wall portion, the portions moi-gluing the slit in the resilient wall portion overlapping when the parts of the bank are assembled G. A bank structure including a resilient \vuii poi'lion. and an end wall portion encompassing the resiiieur wall portion and interlocking therewith, said resilient wall portion being silt, wherebyit is made eontrnc tihio in size in release it froruengagenieut with the end wall portion, the portions margining the slit in the resilient wall portion overlapping when the parts of the bank are assembled, the end wall portion being provided with an insotting Hungrpart, while the resilient wall portion is flanged outwardly so as to be insertibie where flanged beneath the hanged part of the end wall portion.
