To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY H. DANIELS, a
citizen o'i the United States, residing at. Winthrop', in the county of Suil'olk andl Statel of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vend-4 lan operator upon vthe insertionof a coin pf" selected value.
My invention is shown as a plied vto a machine for the 'automatic-ven mg .of postage stamps and postal cards,
features of my invention may be applied to iiferena vending machines for the sale of articles.l g v One ofthe purposes of my invention is to provides. device for positively closing the com-receiving aperture orr slot when the supply of the goods within the machine is exhausted, or nearly exhausted.l I also provide means ing a se ected article.- `urther details of natedparticularly inthe claims.`

'Withm'the-inner shell {1 1 isthe cylinder 14 integrally connected by' means of the pin'15 with they operating handle 16 at the' front lof the machine'. The cylinder 14 has a slot-like recess 17 extending almost in Fig. 16, the inner cylinder 14, -pin 15 and handle 16 are returned to-th'eir initialposil o5 ,across 'its diameter but closed at one'end.
tienv ready for the reception of the next coin by means of the coiled spring 2O '(Fig'. 2).
one end of which issecured to' the pin 15 and the other end to the-casing. A cap 21 covers spring 20. 22 is the coin employed Secured to the front casing are the upper and lower brackets 23 having guide .apertures in which slides the plunger 24. I will of disk 27 are engaged first: describe the device for operating the plungr 24, which relates to the device for receiving a five cent coin or nickel. The construction of the operating device relatingto the postal cards is similar, Whereas the operating device for delivering stamps upon the insertion of a one cent coin is somewhat varied in construction, as most clearly illustrated in Fig. l. At about the middle of the plunger 24 is a side extension 25 which provides a groove or slot 26. The disk 27`is integrally connected with the. inner shell 11, as best shown in Fig. 2, so that they rotate together. The two pins 28 extending inwardly from the disk 27 carry rollers 29 adapted to groove 26. The spring 30 extending between a pin on upper bracket 23 and a lower pin 3l on plunger 24 tends to hold said plunger in its upper position,V illustrated in Fig. l. The teeth 32 in the circumference by the pawl 33 provided with the spring 34. The plunger 24, which is operated upon the insertion of a one cent coin for the delivery of stamps, has a somewhat different operating device. The
Ing cam grooves-3 6, each having a curved portion 37 and 1a straight portion 38. The pi-n 39 extending outwardly from plunger 24 has a roller which enters the cam groove` 36. The spring 40 extends between a pin lower pin ont-he plunger 24. The disk 35 is provided with circumferential teeth 41', engaged by the spring-pressed pawl 42.
The carriage 43, provided with rollers 44 is adapted to run on tracks 45. Downwardly project-ing hooks-"46, aiiixed to the bottom of carriage 43 are adapted to be engaged by the swinging, locking bar 47- which is pivoted at 48 to an upright and retained removably in position by the fastening device 49. The carriage 43 is adapted to -be shifted along it-s track 45 by the rotation of gear wheels 50 fast upon shaft 51 which terminates in the and is provided with the pointer 53l to indicate to the operator.- the-position of the carriage and whetherlor not such position is adapted for-the delivery of one or two cent stamps. Appropriate notices (not front of the machine will convey this information to the operator. The standards 54 are mounted on the carriage 43. They contain bearings for the shafts 55 of two spools 56 and 57, the spool 56 being engaged to carry a coil of one cent stamps 58, while the spool 57 carries a coil The strip of two cent stamps 59 which are connected together, end to end and separated byfthe usual perfor-ations, are led from their spool 57 (Fig. 2) around roller 60, thence forengage the slot ory vertical rack 79, which is outer. handle 52- y stamp deliver)y mechanism.
ward through the track or guide (il between the upper feed roller 62 and lower feed roller (S3, thence along the bottom of a slightly inclined plate 64 to the aperture 65 which is protected by the hood 66 at the top of the recessl 67 in the front of the caslng. rl`he side walls of the recess 67 have slots 68 on each side, opening to the interior of the machine, but protected by the hood 66. The bottom of the'nose is a plate 69, having teeth adapted to register with and engage the perforations between the stamps. The plate 64 has a downwardly curved front edge 7l, both of said plates being supported on the carriage 43 so as to form a sort of nose or nozzle for the strip of stamps to be fed through and di- Areeted downwardly behind hood 66.
The feed rollers 62 and 63 (Fig. 2) for the two cent stamps have bearings in uprights 72, the bearings for upper feed roller 62 being spring-pressed downwardly. They are geared together so as to rotate in unison, but in opposite directions to feed the stamps fo-rward. Upon the shaft of the lower feed roller 63 is loosely mounted a small gear wheel with the disk 76 atixed thereto. The disk 76 carries a springpressed pawl adapted to engage in one direction or ride over in the other direction, the teeth of ratchet wheel which is fast upon the shaft of the lower feed wheel 63. The gear Wheel meshes with the teeth of the guided in upright guides 80. The spring 8l extends between the lower end of the rack-frame and upright 'guide 80, tending to hold the rack 79 i-n its upper position. At'lixed across the top of rack 79 is the plate 82 having the downwardly extending rack-frame 83, adapted to slide upl and down. in the guide .80.' The feeding devigees for the spool 56 of one cent stam s 58ja'ie precisely like those for feeding t e two cent stamps with the exception that the diameter of the feed rollers for the one cent stamps corresponding to rollers 62 and 63 is such that the amount of feeding will be precisely twice that of the feed rollersjfor the two cent stamps for the same number of .revolutie-ns. The tracks and feed nozzles for both kinds of stamps and the feed rollers therefor, as well as the racks for driving the feed rollers, are mounted upon the carriage 43, as indicated, soas to move transversely across the machine upon .said carriage when its position is shifted.
The operating parts f-Lfldjacent to the coinreceiving Islot for effecting the delivery of postal cards are s' "ljar to like. parts adjacent to the live-c coin aperture of the The lower end of the plunger 24 is permanently connected with the upper end of-f the rack 85 which meshes with a gear wire-el 86 (Fig. 3) loosely hung upon the outer end of shaft 89. Fast upon shaft '89 is ratchet wheel 90, engaged in one direction only by the springpressed pawl 91, carried upon the disk 92 secured to thel gear wheel 86. Affixed to the shaft 89 are the sharp toothed feed wheels 93 adapted to engage the upper surface of the uppermost postal card in the pile 94 which is carried on the platform 95, adapted to move vertically between the side guides 90 extending from the base of the machine. The platform 95 has downwardly extending sleeves 97 engaging upright guides 98 so that the platform 95 is retained even and level during its upward course under the pressure of springs 99 as the supply of post cards is exhausted. The adjustable ears 100 are secured to the stationary side guides 96 and have bearings therein for the shafts 101 carrying the idle rollers 102, against which the uppermost postal card is forced by the upward pressure of springs 94 beneath the pile of postal cards.
The front 2 of the machine is provided with a slot for the ejection of the postal cards. The rod 104 is held upright by guide 105 secured to the side of the machine. vIts lower end rests upon the shelf 106 extending from the platform 95 (Figs. 1 and 3). At the upper end of rod 104 is an inwardly extending wing or lip 107, which is normally engaged when the supply of-postal cards is ample, by the ai-m 108 which extends forward and is connected to the outer end of the postal card slot control plate 109, (Fig. 10) having the aperture 110 normally registering with coin slot 7. The spring 111 is secured to the side of the casing and to the coin-control plate 109.
The uprights 112 on carriage 43 have pivoted at their upper ends slightly above and in front of each stamp spool, the levers 113 (Figs. 1 and 2), having weighted inner endsI 114 and outer wings 115 which normally extend forward to Contact with the projection 110 from-.,; l 1 e arm 117 pivoted on pin 118"extendingl'fromr-the front of the casing. The-'arm 117 is normally retained in the perpendicular position by means of a spring. The. upper arm 120, curving forward asa-indicated in Fig. 2, engages a recess in an ear 121 projecting downward from the slot-control .plate,122, best illustrated in Figs. 4, 5, 6 and 7. .The slot-control plate 122 is providedwith the four apertures 123, 124, 125 and 126.
T he core 127 of each stamp spool 5t and 57 is provided with a central annular recess adapted to be uncovered when the supply of stamps is withdrawn from thel spool so as to permit the weighted arm 114 of lever 113 to drop therein.
To prevent confusion in the drawings, Fig. 11 is the only view showing the adjustable studs 129 .which project from the. plates 82 over the racks 79 to receive the impact of plungers 24. threaded so that they may be adjusted vertically on plates 82 and are provided with the locking nuts 130.
The studs 129 are screw.
131 represents the coin-drawer and 132 the chute .through which the coins descend thereto. j
The operation of my device is as follows: We will suppose, first, that a. customer wishes to purchase a one cent stamp. He will rst turn handle to the position where the pointer 53 directs toward a notice (not shown) on the front of the machine indicating the proper position of handle 52 and pointer 53 in order to secure the delivery of one cent stamps. As the shaft 51 is rotated by the turning of handle 52, gear wheels 50, engaging with the downwardly extending teeth on the two parallel transversely extending racks projecting downward from carriage 43, will shift said carriage to the left, or to the extreme right when viewed from the rear (Fig. 1). Assuming that a supply of stamps 58 is coiled upon spool 56 for one cent stamps, the inner weighted end 114 of lever 113 will be upheld by the coil of stamps so that its wing 115 projects sutliciently toward the front of the machine to contact with the projection 116 from the arm 117 (Figs. 1-and 2). As
`the carriage 43 approaches the limits of its movement towarfl the right (Figs. 1 and 5), the -wing 115 striking projection 116 will shift the lower arm 117 to the right so that, as it moves about the pivot pin 118, the upper arm 120 will move to the left and, by
means of its engagement with the recess in` an ear 121 pro-jecting downward from stamp slot-control plate 122, will shift said slotcontrol plate to the left into the position illustrated in Figs. 4, 5 and 6 so thatV the slots or apertures 124 and 126 in said slotcontrol plate 122 gregister with the- .coin slots 5 and 6 in the ledge 4 exposed to the view ofthe operator. The coin-slot control plate 122 rests in a long, narrow guideway immediately beneath the ledge 4, as best illustrated in Figs. 2, 4 and Both of the coin slots 5 and 6, relating to the stamp delivery device, are now open. Following o-ur previous assumption,.theoperator now inserts a one cent co-in in the coin slot 5 designed therefor and turns the handle 1G on its stud 15 to the right in the direction of the movement of the hands of a clock and against the tension of spring 21. The one cent coin will have passed at the moment of its insert-ion through coin slot 5, through the slot 9 in outer drum 8, as best indicated in Fig. 5 (which however, illustrates the use ofa five cent coin) into the slot-like recess 17 in the inner cylinder 14, where it will rest projecting slightly from said recess 17 into the slot 13 in inner shell 11. When,
i now, thevoperator turnshandle 16, the stud 15, being connected to inner cylinder 14, will rotate it and, by the engagement of the :c oin in the recess 17 with the edge of slot 13 24 vuntil,inthe rotatlon of disk 35, the straight portionV 38 of cam-groove 36 reaches i tition of the the vinner end of which is*Y in 39. At this inst-ant, the plunger 24, undier the influence `o f spring 40, will be suddenly shifted upward the length of thel straight portion 38 of the cam groove 36 until it reaches its upper position, ready for a. repeoperation just described. The pin 18 (Fi 3), projecting forward from cylinder 14 y meeting the endof the-curved slot 19', limits the rotation of cylinder 14 to an arc of. one hundred and eighty degrees. When this point is reached, recess 17 1s inverted and the coin is permitted to fall downward 4through slot 13 in shell 11 and slot 10 in the drum 8 and through chute 132 to coin-,drawer 131.
fixed topin 15, returns handle 16 and cylinder 14 to their initial positions with recess 17 open at the top to receive the next coin. The springpressed v circumference of disk 35, prevents any reverse Arotation of handle 16 until the coin has been released. j When the plunger24 starts downward, it contacts almost immediately with an adjustable stud 129 (Fig. 11) upon the plate 482, to drive the same downward with the l Ward the coil of one cent stamps 58.

.downward thereby, previously referred rack-frame 83 along the upright guide 80;- The rack 79 beneath plate 82 being driven engages 'the small gear to as having aflixed thereto the disk 76 and thus drives the lower feed wheel 63 and simultaneously the upper feed wheel 72 to feed forward and dowlh- T e pressure between. the feed rollers is The stamps in their are carried along the track 61 -past'the proper stri fee whose upper plate 64 slightly to guide the stamps downward,

pawl 42, engaging teeth 41 in thel after having wheels 62 and 63 through the nose is turned downward a tions which divide the stam s from each other. The circumference of tllie feed wheels 62 and 63 is such that the downward movement of t-he rack 79 is just sufficient to feed forward a distance equal to the length of one stamp. By
.adjusting studs 129 the amount of rotation of the feed wheels 62 and 63 for each downward drive of plunger 24 may be changed slightly to accord with variations in the spaces between the lines of stamp perforations should they depart somewhat from the usual standard. The hood 66 at the front of the machine within( and at the top of recess as to compel the customer to pull the slightly projecting stamp downward to withdraw the same. The teeth 70 .will engage the stamp perforations, insuring a clean tear or severance of the first stamp from the strip behind. When the plunger 24 is released and rises as before explained, the rack 79 is also released and raised to its initial position by 'spring 81. During the upward movement of rack 79 the pawl 77 rides over the teeth of ratchet wheel 78 so that the remain still.
Assuming that the customer repeats the above operation many times, the stamps will be gradually exhaustedA until the annular recess in the core 127 of the stamp spool is uncovered, leaving the weighted arm 114 of lever -113 free to drop into said recess 128.' This will raise the wing 115 so that itno longer contacts-with projection` 116 from ,arm 117. The spring 119 will at once shift the parts 116, 117,' 120, 121 and 122 to their central position, so that no slot in coin-control plate 122 the coin slots 5 and` 6 in ledge 4. The subsequent movement of the carriage 43 to the left designed to procure a supply of one cent stamps, will be ineffective to open the coin slots. This closing of the coin slots when the one cent stamps are entirely drawn from their spool will leave a supply of four orjfive one cent stamps still in the machinesothat there is no chance of the purchar failing to secure a one cent stamp been allowedto insert a` coin therefor. v
Suppose, now, the supply of onecent stamps not having' been exhausted or nearly exhausted, that the purchaser desires to secure ve cents worth of such one cent stamps in returgi for a He will, as before, shift the carriage 43 by means of handle 5,2 to the position above described, opening both coin slots 5 and 6. He now 4inserts his nickel piece in coin slot 6 and turns the handle thereunder from right to left as before. The mechanism for the downward drive of the plunger 24 to securel five cents worth of stamps is slightly five-cent piece or nickel.l
registers with -A different from-that described above. Upon '4.30
the rotation of shell 1l, the uppermost pin 28 with its roller 29 will enter the slot or groove 26 and drive downward plunger 24 until the pin 28 escapes therefrom at the bottom, allowing the plunger 24 to be returned by spring 30 to its uppermost position. It will be seen that the downward movement of the plunger 24, which is operatedby the ve cent coin, is just tive times as great as the downward movement of the plunger operated by the one cent coin. This will accomplish a downward movement of the rack 79 tive times as great as that above described so that feed rollers 62V and 63 will feed forward tive one cent stamps to the customer. If,.now, the customer wishes to secure a two cent stamp, paying therefor two one centcoins, he 4shifts the carriage into proper position by turning handle l52 from left to right. Assuming that there is a supply of two cent stamps 59 `upon their spoo 57, the projection 116 will be shifted from right to left (Fig. 7 to shift the coincontrol plate as indicated so that thev slots therein 123 and 125 re ster with the coin slots 5 and 6, allowing t e insertion of coins. The operation thereafter is precisely as heretofore described, except that the carriage having been shifted to position for de.
livery of two cent stamps, the plates 82 will be likewise shifted, sothat the delivery devices for the two cent stamps underlie the plunger-5:24. The feed rollers 62 and 63 adapted to feed two cent stamps are so sized smaller than the feed rollers for one cent stamps that the rate of feed will be just one- Y half as great. Therefore, upon operatingthe machine by the employment o f a one cent coin for the delivery of a two cent stamp, the strip willbe moved forward and outward only onehalf the length of a stamp so that the operator cannot grasp the outer j end of the stamp inasmuch as it is protected by a hood 66. A second operation of the machine with the emplo cent coin will feed the strip of twol cent y stamps forward again one-halfI the length of a stamp so as to permit .the operator to withdraw the two -cent stamp' for which l, hev has paid two one cent coins.'
.If the opera-tor employs a five cent coin for securing two cent "stamps, two will-'be 'delivered to him -while;the third will be? Iejected only one-half of itslength and re'V tained inaccessiblebehind hood 66, requirling a one centfcoin and arepetition of the "feedingprocessto eject the Ithird stamp so that it -canbe reached and'fwithdrawn by the operator; or a second five cent coin may loe employed to -secure livetwo cent stamps altogether.. Y
When the supply of two `cent stamps is exhausted, as well-as the su ply of one cent stamps, `both levers'113 wi 1 have dropped into annular recesses in their respective ent of a onevin pro is ample, the :arm 108 connectso that the arm 117 will be retained by spring 119 in its central position, closing l both coin slots relating to stamps. The shifting 'of the carriage into either position for securinvr one or two cent stamps; will now be ineffective to ope-n coin slots 5 and 6 inasmuch las the wings 115 will pass by projection' 116 without .contacting therewith.
The slots or openings 68 in Vthe sides of recess 67 at the front of the machine are l .75' protected by the h'ood66. vWhen, by reason of the employment of a one or five centI coin for the purchase of two cent stamps, such a stamp projeots-one-half its delivery distance, the slots 68 will permit the shifting of the carriage without tearing the projecting stampi. secured t ereon may be removed from the The carriage 43 and all parts machine by freely locking bar 47 (Figs. 1
and 2) from its fastening 'device 49 and turning the same outward on its 46 from engagement therewith.
