UNITED STATES PATENT Cerise,
LOUIS KYSER AND,ALFRED O. REX, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.-
TOY MONEY-BOX.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 252,607, dated January 24, 1 582.-
Applioation filed June 27, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, LOUIS KYSER and ALFRED O. REX, both of the city and county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Toy Money- Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to mechanical toy money-boxes in general; and it consists in a box in the form of a human being, or the head and shoulders thereof, said head being provided with an open mouth, in which a tongue is operated to be projected orbe withdrawn with a view of Swallowing the money which is laid upon the extended tongue; further, in arranging the eyes to move upon the withdrawal of the tongue; and, finally, in the detail mechanism whereby said tongue and eyes are operated, all of which is more fully set forth in the following specification and shown in the accompanying drawing, which forms part thereof. 2
In the drawing is shown a vertical sectional elevation of our improved toy money-box.
A is the body of the box, and is made of two partsjoined in a vertical line through the middle, one half representing the back and shoulders of a man and the other the face and chest of same. The bottom is closed and provided with a door, 0. The face is provided with a wide-open mouth, B, and two eye-holes, O. The tongue D, which is adapted to work in and out of the mouth, is secured to lever E, which is pivoted at F to journal-box G, and is held in place by bent wire H. A spring, M, tends to throw the lever E back and keep the tonguein themouth. Arod,J,workingthrough a hole, L, in the back,is provided with a fork,
' K, upon its end, which straddles the lever E,
and is kept in its place by lugs l I. Astop,j, on said rodJ prevents the lever E being thrown back far enough to free the spring M. If desired, the tongue D may have its end slightly turned up, as indicated in dotted lines, to prevent the money from slipping off. A bent lever, 1?, pivoted at 0 to the head, is provided with a curved plate, N, upon which the eyeballs are painted. The lower extension of this lever is in position to bestruck by the lever E or by the money in its descent.
The operation is as follows: The rod J is pressed in, which action forces out the tongue D and allows the eyes to be in their natural position. A piece of moneyis now placed upon the tongue and the rod J released. The spring M throws the lever E back, suddenly withdrawing the tongue, which action throws the money into the box through the mouth, and at the same time the eye-balls are turned up, as if in satisfaction of the meal. v
We do not limit ourselves to the exact mechanism shown, as the tongue or its lever might be worked directly, and other modifications might be made; but weprefer the design shown.
Instead of a human head, the representation of the head of any animal or bird may be used.
We are aware of the patents to Smith, No. 98,643, and Murray, No. 241,055, and claim nothing therein shown or described, this invention being an improvement upon saidpatents.
Having now described our invention, what weclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a toy money-box, a receptacle in the form of the human head provided with an open mouth, in combination with a pivoted tongue adapted to be retained within the mouth by a spring or its equivalent, and forced out by pressure applied at the instant, said tongue upon its withdrawal discharging the money into the box, as in the act of swallowing, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. In a toy money-box, a receptacle in the form of the human head provided with an open mouth, in combination with a tongue adapted to be pressed out by pressure applied at the instant, and withdrawn by a spring, and movable eye-balls adapted to. operate upon the withdrawal of the tongue, as in the act of I swallowing money, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
3. In a toy money-box, a receptacle, A, in the form of a head provided with a mouth, B, and eye-holes U, in combination with a tongue, D, secured to a lever, E, pivoted at F, spring M, rod J, or its equivalent, and pivoted eyeballs N, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony of which invention we hereunto set our hands.
. LOUIS KYSER.
ALFRED O. REX.
