Abstract
The invention relates to a telephone coin collection box, to be closed with a cover, for a telephone system. The bottom and the sides of the coin box are made of plastic. A stainless steel staple is attached to the front side for lockingly engaging a cover and triple hinge openings are disposed in the rear side near the straight upper edge. The coin box according to the invention provides high stability against damage during handling and can be manufactured in an inexpensive way. Following drop tests performed on coin boxes, the plastic coin box exhibited a remarkable toughness and showed no distortions and could still fit into the respective compartment of a coin-operated telephone.
