Abstract

Mixed apparatus of radio-receiver and disc-player, characterized essentially by being constituted by a single box comprising all the necessary elements so that the apparatus can act indistinctly as a radio-receiver or as a disc-player, one of the elongated faces of the box to the radio receiver, with its corresponding dial and also with the relevant opening to the loudspeaker of the radio-receiver, serving the same loudspeaker for the disc-player, the opposite face of the indicated box being provided with a lifting lid, of little height, articulated on one of the short sides of the box, which hides and covers a plate-chassis of the disc-player that occupies completely the interior of the box of the apparatus and which is close to said movable cover, said plate being carrier- chassis of a phono-captor, of a freely rotating cymbal on which the gramophone disc is disposed, and of two grooves, through which the segments of wheels appear, of different diameters, peri mechanically elastic, located at different radial distances with respect to the central pivot of the freely rotating plate and on which the gramophone disc is coupled, said wheels act as motors, and by rubbing, against the lower face of the gramophone disc, causing the rotation thereof, one or the other of said wheels acting on said disc, according to the diameter and revolutions of said disc, the larger diameter being the one farthest from the carrier plate; also presenting said chassis-plate, various means to ensure the leveling of the gramophone disc, as well as to make the interior of the apparatus accessible for the replacement of the dry batteries feeding the apparatus, and to accommodate the head of the pickup when it is out of use; also presenting the case of the apparatus as a whole for its manual grip and for constituting a sufficient support base for the apparatus to be able to settle on any flat surface in order that by acting as a disc-player on one of its faces, it can the other, be sufficiently separated from such surface so that the sound, emitted by the speaker on this other side, is perfectly perceptible.
