ABSTRACT:
An improved taxi meter construction is constructed of the following features: (1) an extrusion piece sideways reciprocal movement mount for the electrical and mechanical connection and disconnection without damage to the connection elements, (2) a detachable receipt paper cutter plate for ready access, maintenance and repair of the paper supply means, and (3) an extrusion piece hinged door for access to the receipt paper supply means for replenishment of the paper supply. The improved construction results from each of these features, as well as in the combination of these features. The taxi meter housing is of low cost extruded aluminum components. The taxi meter housing encases the operating elements in a tamper-proof housing, while permitting ready access to the mechanical features such as the fare receipt paper supply means, the fare printer and the receipt paper cutter plate. This improved taxi meter construction provides a low cost, and yet tamper-proof construction, with minimal maintenance and downtime from in-service use.
