BILL BOX Filed May 13; '192s INVENTOR. J; 0 5011/74. BY mm 9 60 ATTORNEYS.
Patented Sept. 6, 1932 UNITED STATES JAMES H. BOWMAN, F HONOLULU, TERRITORY OF HAWAII BILL BOX Application filed May 13, 1929. Serial No. 362,687.
My invention relates to improvements in bill boxes, and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements hereinafter described and claimed.
An object of my invention is to provlde a bill box especially designed to hold paper money on its edge and to form the paper in loops. All money of one denomination may be looped and nested and then placed in a single compartment. In like manner, other denominations may be arranged. This makes all of the denominations of paper money immediately available to the paying tellers hand.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of the type described in which all of the bills are kept in a fixed position at all times so that they may be readily picked out one at a time or all at one time.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of the type described which is extremely simple in construction and which is durable and efficient for the purpose intended.
Other objects and advantages will appear as the specification proceeds, and the novel features will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a top plan view of the device, and
Figures 2 and 3 are sections along the lines 22 and 33 of Figure 1.
In carrying out my invention, I provide a box or drawer 1 having side walls 2 and end walls 3. Partitions 4; divide the box into three rows A, B and O.
Each row is divided into a number of compartments 5 by triangular-shaped members 6 having slightly curved sides 7.
From the foregoing description of the various parts of the device, the operation thereof may be readily understood.
Bills of a like denomination are looped and nested as shown at 8 in Figure 1 and then are placed in one of the compartments 5 so that the bills will stand upon their lowermost edges. The depth of the compartment is such as to cause the upper edges of the bills to lie flush with the top of the'drawer or box. It is obvious that this depth maybe changed to suit the persons needs.
Should the person be left-handed, he could nest the bills in the manner shown at 9 in Figure 1. Four compartments 5 are shown in the top row A. These could hold $1.00, $2.00, $5.00, and $10.00 bills respectively. The rows B and C could hold bills of higher denominations, or small bills could be placed in these if desired.
The teller in cashing a check or making change for a customer is enabled to pick out any bill desired or as many bills as necessary without removing the bundle of currency from the holder. The entire bundle remains in its curved position as shown in Figure 1, and the tellerin removing a bill simply passes P the tips of his fingers down into the open space, i. e. the loop, and with the index or middle finger and thumb removes as many bills as he wishes. If he Wishes to remove the entire bundle of bills, he grasps the bundle and this can be more readily done than if they were lying fiat upon the bottom of the compartment as is now the practice. Another advantage is claimed when bills are new and numbered consecutively. These bills, when placed in the compartment with their faces on the outside of the loop and their green backs on the inside of the loop, preserve their sequence, which is a great aid in balancing cash at the end of theday. Then, too, in this manner the'bills always will come out face up and in the right position to lay down before the customer.
The manner of holding the bills in place eliminates rechecking or making a double count, and in this way it is a distinct improvement over the present method. Bills may be removed from the drawer with far greater speed and with greater accuracy than is now possible. It is obvious that the box may be constructed of different materials and the design may be changed. The principal point is the looping and nesting of the bills and then holding them in this position so that they will rest upon their edges instead of on 100 their faces.
' Although I have shown and described one embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that the same is susceptible of various changes, and I reserve the right to employ such changes as may come within th scope of the invention as claimed.
I claim: 1. A'bill box comprising vertically extending Walls arranged in spaced relation with each other, projections carried by the walls and extending toward each otherand forming bill compartments, dimensioned and shaped to allow bills to be looped and nested therein on edge in vertical position with the projections embracing the bills.
2. A bill box comprising vertically extending walls arranged in spaced relation with each other, projections carried by the walls and extending toward each other and forming bill compartments, dimensioned and shaped to allow bills to be looped and nested therein on edge in vertical position with the projections embracing the bills, the projections on opposed Walls terminatingfrom each other in spaced relation for permitting both sides of the bills to be grasped.
3. A bill box comprising vertically extending walls arranged in spaced relation with each other, and triangular-shaped projections carried by the walls'having slightly curved sides, said projections extending toward each other from opposing walls to form compartments shaped and dimensioned to allow bills to be looped and nested therein on edge in vertical position with the curved sides of the projections extending along the curvature of the bills.
