ABSTRACT:
A device for locking a coin control mechanism and insert into the interior of the housing of cabinet of a newspaper rack, the device comprising a cross bar (30) permanently mounted across the housing front opening (22) on which there is attached a blade receipt member (32) or in which a blade receipt slot (33) is located. An insert (38) consisting of a metal perimeter (40) having an insert cross member (52) extending from an upper insert brace (42) to a lower insert brace (46) is connected to pivot cams (36) attached to or near a lower edge (24) of the housing opening. The insert cross member (52) has an insert bracket (56) attached thereto which is generally L-shaped, having an attachment leg (58) for attaching the insert bracket (56) to the insert cross member (52) and a lock receiving leg (60). The insert (38) attaches to the pivot cams (36), and is dimensioned such that the perimeter (40) fits snugly against the perimeter of the front opening (22) of the cabinet. After attaching to the pivot cams (36), the insert (38) is rotated upward with the lock receiving leg (60) of the insert cross member (52) passing through the opening of the housing cross bar (30). The coin control mechanism of the newspaper cabinet is attached to a coin mechanism mounting plate (64), the walls having an L-shaped bracket (56) for mounting to the side wall (76) of the housing mechanism, and located such that the L-shaped bracket (56) aligns with the lock receiving leg (60) of the insert locking bracket (56). A padlock is inserted through the hole of the lock receiving legs of both L-shaped brackets to lock the insert and coin control mechanism to the cabinet.
