C. A. FROST CHECK CASH BOOK Nov. 8, 1938.
Original Filed Nov. 9, 1955 INVENTOR BY 6/: ar/es fl Host 5% 33m k ATTORNEY Patented Nov 8, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CHECK-CASH BOOK Charles A. Fl
Du-All Check Book Company, Ina, a corporation of New York ZCIaims.
This invention relates to books which contain sheets to be written upon or fllled in, such as blank books, check books and the like, and the invention resides in certain features of construcil tion which form an improvement in the structure disclosed in the copending application Serial Number 32,544, filed by me and Ellsworth B. Dreher on July 22, 1935.
In said application, there is disclosed a comblned check and cash book having sheets divided into three separable parts, an outer part forming a bank check or series of bank checks, an intermediate part having suitably designated spaces to be fliled in as a cash book and an inner part forming the check stub.
In the closed position of the book. the checks are folded against the intermediate portions and sheets and the back cover of the book is provided with an extension to provide a backing for the check while it is being filled out, this extension in the closed position being folded around the sheets onto the front cover.
The present invention as applied to the book above described comprises an improvement of the construction of the hinged connection between the back cover and the extension, which permits the extension to be raised into contact with the uppermost or front checks. thus forming a firm backing for the check while it is being filled out.
For this purpose I connect the extension with the back cover by a still strip having a width equal approximately to the thickness of the book, this strip being hinged along one edge to the back cover and along its opposite edge to the stifl extension.
Various other objects and advantages of my invention will appear from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, which shows one embodiment of the invention and wherein;
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the combined cash and check book in closed position;
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the book open 5 with one of the sheets unfolded and the cover extension raised into contact with the top check; and
Figure 3 is an end view of the back open showing the arrangement of parts when approximately 50 half of the checks have been removed, the topmost of the remaining checks unfolded. and the rear cover extension is raised into contact therewith.
The sheets ii of the book It shown in Figure 55 2 are divided by perforations along lines a to form check portions b and along lines 0 to permit the intermediate cash sheets d to be removed from the check stubs. there being large punchings or perforations a near the inner end of each of the sheets d to permit the sheets when re- I moved to be mounted in a loose leaf binder.
The check portions of the sheets ii are ruled as indicated in Figure 2 with suitable designations for the filling out of the check. The front side of the cash book sheets at are ruled with spaces 1' for 19 information in regard to the corresponding check, the number of the check, date, the party in whose favor the check is drawn and, if desired, dates of invoices and accounts to which the same is chargeable. To the right of the spaces r are three columns 1. m and n respectively. Column l is entitled Amount of check" and columns in and n Jointly entitled Distribution". While titles of the individual columns m and n may vary with different businesses con- 20 ducted by the drawers of the checks, convenient and generally applicable titles are Accounts payable or "Special accounts for the column or columns m and "Other for column n, this latter indicating a disbursement chargeable to 25 accounts other than "Accounts payable or "Special accounts.
The front of the stub portions contain the number of the check and have spaces for the insertion of the amount of the check. 30
The back of the cash sheet as shown at the left of Figure 2 contains spaces for the insertion of bank deposits and information relative thereto. This side of the cash sheet is ruled with a date column 0, a column 9 for the names of the 35 sources from which the deposits were received,
a column q giving the deposit total brought forward and individual deposits and columns r and 3 showing the distribution of deposits, the columns 1" being "Special accounts" or "Accounts 4 receivable" and the column 3 being marked Other", and containing accounts other than the Accounts receivable" or "Special accounts.
The back of the stub portion contains a column for the insertion of the balance brought forward and the amounts of the individual deposits.
The amounts brought forward on the stub show the actual cash balance and this sum may be checked by subtracting the amount brought forward on the check side of the cash sheet from the amount brought forward from the deposit side of the cash sheet.
Where more complete distribution of the items shown in columns a and s are desired, I
provide at the back of the book. 8 number 0! sheets which extend the length of the sheets ii. The former sheets are ruled on the left for credit distribution and on the right for debit distribution. I preferably provide a column between the credit and debit distribution columns for the items to be distributed. The distribution sheets are weakened along lines near the inner edge so that they can also be removed and are suitably punched for insertion in the loose leaf binder.
The check cash book when closed is approximately one third its length when opened. The check portions fold back upon the intermediate or inner portions of the leaves or sheets II and the back distribution sheets also fold at approximately the center.
One form of cover for the cash check book is shown at H in Figure 1. It comprises stiif front portions it and It, the portion it being formed as a foldable extension of the back portion II. The extension It is connected to the back portion I! by a stiff strip III which is hinged along one edge at 2| to the back cover I! and along the opposite edge at 22 to the extension II.
The stiii' connecting strip II permits the extension It to be raised into contact with the check to form a backing therefor while the check is being filled out. Figure 2 shows the extension with three of the first checks in the book unfolded and it will be seen that the strip I0 is substantially vertical. As more checks are used and torn out, the opening of the book at the uppermost of the remaining checks causes the plane of the outer folded edges of the sheets H to incline to the vertical. The width of this plane along which the strip 20 lies, is aproximately the same width regardless of the number of checks left in the book as will be seen for example in Figure 3. The extension ll may therefor be moved into facial contact with check regardless of the number of checks remaining in the book.
While I have described my invention as applied to a combined check and cash hook, it is obvious that it may be applied to other books having folded sheets and it may be applied to either, or to both, front and back covers.
The portions l5 and II are preferably weakened along lines ll adjacent the stub section so that when the check and cash portions are removed from the book all of the cover except the back binding may be removed, thus greatly decreasing the space necessary for the storage of the stub portions.
Having now described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A book comprising a cover and leaves folded each against itself and adapted to be unfolded to form respectively inner and outer portions and said leaves being weakened along lines of the folds whereby the outer portions may be successively removed from the inner portions and said outer portions being adapted for writing on one side thereof, a. stiff strip hinged at one edge to one edge of the cover approximately in line with said folds and of a width approximately equal to the thickness of the book, an extension hinged to the opposite edge of the strip, the hinged connections between the strip and cover and extension being such that the strip may assume positions at acute angles to the cover and extension, whereby when said book is opened and a leaf unfolded, the strip may be swung to move the inner edge of the extension to the level of said last named leaf and the extension may be used for a backing for the outer portion of said last named leaf.
2. A book comprising a cover and leaves folded each against itself and adapted to be unfolded to form an outer part and intermediate part and a small inner part, the inner part having suitably designated spaces. on one side for filling out with the amount of the checks and on the other side for filling out with amounts of deposits, the intermediate having suitably designated spaces on one side for distribution of disbursements and on the other side for distribution of receipts, and the outer part having suitably designated spaces to be filled out as a bank check, the leaf being weakened along the fold which is between the check and intermediate parts, a still strip hinged at one edge to one edge of the cover approximately in line with said folds and of a width approximately equal to the thickness of the book, an extension hinged to the opposite edge of the strip, the hinged connections between the strip and cover and extension being such that the strip may assume positions at acute angles to the cover and extension, whereby when said book is opened and a leaf unfolded, the strip may be swung to move the inner edge of the extension to the level of said last named leaf and the extension may be used as a backing for the outer part of said last named sheet.
