ABSTRACT:
In a self-locking covered coin receptacle such as employed in coin-controlled machines, and of the type wherein the cover includes a channeled member carrying a window and slidably telescopically received within a second channeled member carrying an open-topped flexible bag to be aligned with the window and a spring biased slide is installed on the floor of the channel defined within said first member and operates between a first condition covering the window and a second condition uncovering the window and a band spring member removably is fastened to the first member and includes a bent latch formation arranged to ride the slide when the same is moved to uncover the window, and to block movement of the slide when the window is covered by return of said slide; in order to defeat the possibility of nonevidentiary unauthorized access being established by lifting, tampering or otherwise manipulating the band spring to release same from its blocking condition, a transverse score is formed in the spring near the bend. Attempts to improperly lift, temper or otherwise externally manipulate the spring will cause the bent formation to become detached, leaving visible evidence of the attempt.
