Abstract

332,328. Hofmann, J. C. Jan. 11, 1929, [Convention date]. Pianoforte actions.- In an upright piano having an action like that of a grand arranged with the escapement facing the strings e, a freely moving intermediate lever or wippen l directly actuates the damper m, and also carries the check n. The hammer-butt f is recessed at o to permit access to the regulating-screw p. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) states that a movable hammer rest-rail may be used with the action. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
