Specification of Letters'Patent. Patented Apr. 20, 19 20.
Application filed November 25, 1919. Serial No. 840,467;
' To all 'wliom it may concern: I
Be it"known that I, JACOB L. Gone, a
- citizen of the United States, residing at following is a specification.
. Fig. 1 looking to the right as indicated by.
Tickets of admission to amusements, public carriers and other purposes are usually provided in strips which are rolled. for
. convenience of handling. These strips are .turned from the roll and the tickets se arated therefrom by being torn or cut. his practice usually occupies one or both hands of the person dispensmg the tickets and for this reason is undesirable- The present invention enables the delivery of the tickets without occupying either one of the hands of the operator, WhlCll are free to make change or for other purposes.
The drawings illustrate a referred embodiment of the invention. I owever, it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet different conditions, various changes 4 in the form, proportion andminor details of construction may be resorted to without departing fromthe nature of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
The drawings illustrate an embodiment of the invention, and on reference thereto,
Figure 1 is a side view of a ticket dispensing machine in elevation illustrative of the invention,
@ Fig.- 2 is a front viewof the machine Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of the arrow, s
Fig. 4 is a top plan view,
Fig. 5 is a sectional detail on the line 55 of Fig. 2, looking to the right,
Fig. 6 is a sectional detail on the line 6-6 of Fig. 2, looking to theright,
Corresponding and like parts are referredto in the following des iption and indicated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters.
The machine is essentially pedal operated 7 ed upon the platform 4 and comprises a cutting mechanism, a feeder, a rotarystamp and an inker. The tickets are .printed upon a strip 7 and such strip is wound upon a spool or drum 8, standards 9 rising from the table 1 and formed with inclined notches 10 to receive the journals of the spool 8. In this manner the roll may be adjusted to any height according to its diameter. The portion of the strip -7 unwound from the roll passes over the platform 4 and beneath a guide roller 12. As the strip is fed over the platform 4 it is stamped and cut so as to deliver the individual tickets.
The means for feeding the strip of tickets over the platform 4 consists of a roller 13 which is preferably fixed to admit of engaging the strip to insure its positive feed over the platform. The feed roller 13 is mounted upon the upright 2 in advance thereof and its surface is adapted to engage the strip 7 in a manner to insure its positive movement over the platform. The feed roller 13 is adapted to receive a counter clockwise movement, the latter being controlled by a pedal mechanism. When the feed roller 13 is actuated, the ticket strip 7 is drawn from the roll and advanced over the platform 4. During the feeding of the ticket strip the cutting mechanism assumes an operative position and when the pedal mechanism returns to normal position, the
and move' forward to a position to be received by the purchaser or other person intended to receive the same. A toothed wheel '14 is" secured to one end of the feed roller 13. and a feed pawl 15'i's 1n coiiperation therewith.
. expansible helical spring 20 normally holds the rack bar 19 in elevated position and returnsthe same to normal position when therack bar is released, each being'depressed. by the pedal mechanism.v When the rack bar 19 is depressed, the actuatingmember' I 16 is rotated in a counter clockwise'direction and the feed pawl 15 engaging with the toothed wheel 14'of the feed roller 13 rotates the latter in the same direction thereby feeding a portion of the ticketstrip to insure the severance of a ticket therefrom at the next operation of the cutting mechanism. When the rack bar 19 rises to normal position under the influence of the spring 20 the actuating member 16 is moved in a clock-'- wise direction and the pawl 15 rides on the teeth of the element 14. The movement of the rack bar may be adjus'ted'by means of a stop 21 which is adjustably connected to the upright 2 as indicated most clearly in Fig. 3. A stop 22 carried by the rack bar' 19 is adapted to engage the stop '21 and thereby limit the downward movement of the rackbar. The 'upward movement of the rackbar is limited. by a stop 23 which is adjustably connected to the rack bar. It
will thus be seen that both theupwardand the downward movements of 'the rack bar 19 may be adjusted. The pedal mechanism comprises a treadle 24and a connecting rod 25 the latter being pivotally connected to. the rack bar 19 and pedal as shown most clearly in' Fig. 1. 'The treadle 24 may be conveniently rotated so as to be operated by the foot of the ticket dispenser.
When the tickets are to be thereon such marking is eiiected by a stamp 26 which is of the rotary-type and preferably dis'posed upon the rear side of the upright 2 and directly above the ticket stripflAn inking roller 27 is in cooperative relation with the rotary stamp 26 and supplies ink to the type. The stamp-being of the'rotary type is rotated b engagement of the type faces withthe tic et strip 7.
The cutting mechanism is v outer or delivery end of the'platform 4 and member 16.
dated or other-:- 'wlse prov ded w1th-'matter ;.to be stamped 55' located at the comprises a fixed blade 28 and a movable blade 29. The fixed blade 28 is embedded in the platform 4. The movable blade 28 is pivoted atone end' as indicated at. 30 and its opposite end is upturnied as indicated at 31. A tappet arm,32 adjustably connected with the actuating. member '16' is. adapted to engage'the upturned end 31 of the pivoted blade 29 and actuate the same.
A contractile helical spring 33 connected with the blade 29 returns the same to normal roller 12 and over the platform 4, and is adjusted so that when the pedal 24 is depressed, the feed roller 13 will operate to advance a portion of the strip correspondingwith the ticket-to be cut therefrom. As the ticket strip is drawn from the roll, the date or other data to be printed thereon is applied.
-by'm'eans of the stamp 26. As the pedal 24 is depressed the actuating member 16 is '95 rotating in a counter clockwise direction and the movable cutter member 29 assumes an operative position under the influence of the spring 33. When the pedal 24 is relieved of pressure the rack bar" 19 is moved 10.0 upward under the influence of the spring 20 and causes the actuating member 16 to rotate in a clockwise direction 'thereb bringing the tappet arm 32 in contactwith the movable cutter member 29 which is depressed thereby severing the ticket from the strip.
The feed of theticket strip may be regulated .by pro er adjustment of the stops 21 and 23 an the cutting inechanisinmay be timed to operate properly by ad'ustment Im of the tappet arm 32 which is a justably' connected in any manner with the actuating Having thus fully described my invention'what I claim as'new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In an automatic ticket dispensing mechanism, an upri ht, a rack bar mounted in the upright, :a p al mechanism.for imparting a vertical reciprocating-movement to the rack bar, a feed roller, an actuating member adapted to'have' an oscillatory movement imparted thereto by means of the rack-bar, and a feed pawl carried by the actuating member and adapted to intermittently oper- 1'25 ate the'said roller. 4 2. Inan automaticticket dispensing mechanism, an upright, a rack .bar mounted in the upright, a pedal mechanism for imparting a vertical reciprocating movement to.'.the
rack bar, a feed roller, an actuating member adapted to hax e an oscillatory movement imparted thereto b means of the rack bar, pedal mechanism or imparting movement to the rack bar, means for ad'usting the movement of the rack bar in eac direction, and a feed ({mwl carried by said actuating member an in cooperative relation with In testimon whereof I afiix mysignature in presence 0 two witnesses.
