Abstract

473,382. Mirrors. HARVEY, W. Sept. 28, 1936, No. 26240. [Class 52 (iv)] [Also in Groups XVIII and XV] A flexible mirror, of sheet metal, silvered pliable transparency, &c., is periodically bent alternatively about axes at right-angles to one another to give a changing distorted image of the observer. The mirror 2 is mounted in a casing 1, and is held at its corners by universal pivots 3, 4, 5, 6 which also allow one end and one edge to move inwardly. The buckling of the mirror is effected by bifurcated lugs 9, 10, 11, 12 which are thrust and pulled in turn by rods 91, 101, 11<1>, and 121, the rods 91 and 11 being coupled together by a link 21 and bellcranks 20 and 20<1>, and the rods 10<1> and 12<1> by a link 14 and bell-cranks 13, 131. A motor 30 rotates a mutilated pinion 35 to engage in succession pinions 29 and 19, which respectively swing the cranks 20, 201 and 13, 13<1> to and fro, to bend the mirror 2 alternately in directions at right-angles to one another. In modifications, the flexing may be effected by Bowden wires, by blasts of air, or by magnetic means. The mirror may have a design on the back and be illuminated from the rear, and the device may be controlled by coin-release mechanism.
