VERNON D. HITCHINGS AND EDWARD W. FACE, OF NORFOLK, VIRGINIA.
TICKET-CASE.
Application led March 7, 1908.
T 0 all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that we, VERNON D. HITCH- 'INGs and EDWARD WV. FACE, citizens of the United States, residing at Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk and State of Virginia, have invented new and useful improvements in Ticket-Cases, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to ticket cases, the object in view being to provide a simple, compact and efficient case for holding tickets and providing for the removal of said tickets one at a time in a convenient and expeditious manner; also means for registering or indicating the number of tickets remaining in the case as the tickets are removed therefrom one at a time.
With the above and other objects in view, the nature of which will more fully appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts as herein fully described, illustrated and claimed.
In the accompanying drawingz-Figure 1 is a plan view of the ticket case. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is a vertical longitudinal section through the ticket case, showing the tickets arranged therein. Fig. 4 is a side or edge view of the case, showing the observation opening for the inspection of the register or indicator. Fig. 5 is a vertical cross section through the case on an enlarged scale. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective view of the follower and indicator carried thereby.
The ticket case is illustrated as of rectangular form, and in practice the same will be made of the shape and size of the tickets and of a depth adapted to contain any desired number of tickets. The case which may be made of sheet metal or any other suitable material comprises a bottom 1 and top 2, sides 3 and ends 4. The top 2 is provided with a finger aperture 5 to enable the thumb or nger of the operator to engage the upermost ticket and slide the same out of a shallow discharge opening 6 in one end of the case as shown in Fig. 3. Immediately adjacent to said opening the end wall of the case is provided with an inwardly offset cutoff lip 7, the inner face of which is preferably inclined as shown in Fig. 3 so as to engage a number of the tickets but leave suflicient room above the same to allow a single ticket to be slid outward from the case through the discharge opening 6. Arranged within Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 14, i910.
Serial No. 419,752.
the case is a follower 8 in the form of a plate of the same general shape, the said plate being advanced toward the top Q of the case by means of a plurality of coiled springs 9 which are interposed between the follower and the adjacent side of the case as seen in Figs. 3 and 5. In this way the tickets are advanced toward the apertured top of the case as the tickets are removed therefrom one at a time.
The follower 8 has attached thereto one end of a flexible indicating strip or register 10 which may be composed of any suitable material such as thin metal, celluloid, gutta percha or the like and said strip has represented thereon numbers, as shown in Fig. 6, corresponding with the number of tickets in the case and arranged to show through an observation aperture ll in the side of the case as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. lt is designed to cover said opening with a glass l2 and said glass may be in the form of a lens of magnifying glass as indicated in Fig. 5, the same being held in position by a small retaining frame or binder as seen in Figs. 4 and 5. The numbers on the indicating strip are arranged in accordance with the different positions of the follower so as to indicate the number of tickets contained in the case. Then the follower is pushed downward as shown in Figs. 3 and 5, the indicating strip, by reason of its flexibility, is deflected against the bottom of the case and caused to slide beneath the follower as shown in Fig. 5.
One end of the follower 8 may be notched as shown at 14 to admit of a certain amount of flexibility of the adjacent ends of the tickets which are shown at 15, whereby the tickets are adapted to snap past the cut-off lip 7, one at a time, into position to be slid out of the case through the opening 6.
Having thus described the invention, what we claim as new, is
l. A ticket case comprising a ticket compartment, means for advancing the tickets toward one side of the case to facilitate the removal of the same from the case one at a time, and a flexible indicator movable with the ticket advancing means and adapted to indicate the number of tickets contained in the case.
2. A ticket case comprising a ticket compartment provided with a discharge opening, a follower for advancing the tickets into position to be withdrawn through the discharge opening, and a flexible indicator strip movable with and by said follower to indicate the number of tickets remaining in the CaSe.
3Q A ticket case comprising a ticket compartment, a spring pressed follower for advancing the tickets. toward the discharge point of the case7 a flexible indicator strip connected to and carried by the follower, the case being provided with an observation aperture for inspection of said indicating strip, and a magnifying element in said observation aperture.
4. A sheet metal ticket case comprising a ticket compartment and provided in one side with a finger aperture which exposes a portion of one side of the adjacent ticket and also provided in one end with a discharge opening, a spring pressed follower for advancing the tickets toward the apertured side of the case and an internally arranged cut-olf lip past which the edges of the tickets are adapted to snap under the influence of the follower, said lip being V-shaped in cross section and formed by pressing the end wall of the case inward to form an offset.
In testimony whereof we afHX our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
