Abstract
517,803. Optical sound-reproducing apparatus. KOLB, O. K. May 17, 1939, No. 14762. Addition to 501,218. [Class 40 (ii)] Apparatus for reproducing either from asymmetric (push-pull) or normal sound film records, as described in the parent Specification, is modified by providing in the optical system a single prism which is utilized for dividing the beam when a push-pull record is being employed, and which is rendered ineffective when the reproduction is from a normal record. In the arrangement, Fig. 1, an image of the sound track on a film 2 is formed on a slit (not shown) provided in a mask at the back of a lens 6. The slit may be made by engraving in a metallic layer on the lens. A prism 7 extends over half the slit, and is integral with a parallel-sided glass block 11. In the position of the parts shown (or alternatively, with the prism in close contact with the lower half of the slit and the upper half uncovered), the modulated light beam is split so that half of it falls on the cathode of a cell 9 and the other half on the cathode of a cell 9<1>. This enables push-pull reproduction to be effected. For use with a film having a normal sound-track, the prism is displaced or otherwise rendered ineffective, so that the slit is either uncovered or covered only by parallel-sided glass. By this means, the whole of the modulated beam is caused to fall on the cell 9<1>.
