Specification of Letters Patent.
HORN-SUPPORT.
Patented May 26, 1914.
Application filed August 13, 1912. Serial No. 714,76i5.
New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horn-Supports, of which the following is a specification. v The object of my invention istbprovide a rigid, substantial support, to be secured to the motor plate of a phonograph, for carrying the amplifying horn, and also for supporting the sound box in a position adjacent the sound record. to be played upon the instrument.
In my Design Patent No. 41,499 dated June 20, 1911, I have shown substantially the same form of structure, and in my patent application filed May 29, 1911 Ser. No. 630,170, I have shown similar horn supports, specially adapted to the purposes disclosed therein, and my present application may be considered a division'of said application so far as it relates to common subject matter.
In the accompanying d1 awing, Figure 1, is a. side elevation of the support. Fig. 2, is a front elevation. Fig. 3, is a plan view. Fig. 4, is a sectional View taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5, is a side elevation showing the support in connection with a well known form of horn.
Similar reference numeralsrefer to like parts throughout the specification and draw- 2 The support consists of a single casting having the broad circular-base 1, the upright and slightly inclined standard 2, with the tubular elbow 3 at the upper end thereof. This elbow has one arm 4 open horizontally to receive the connecting thimble of a sound box and the other arm '5 open vertically to receive the connecting small end 6 of the amplifying horn 7, which may swing about in a horizontal plane. The opening in the arm 5 is slightly larger-than the general inside diameter of the elbow and has a shoul; der 8 at the bottom, for the small end of the horn to rest upon. The horizontal arm 4 of the elbow is provided with a lateral screw threaded aperture into which is screwed the set screw 9, to secure the thimble of a sound box in place. v
In order that the sound box may always be put in the same position upon the support it has a pin at the rear side, and so located as to enter the open slot 10, which is for convenience cut in the upper surface of the horizontal'arm. The. base 1 is broad and flat and provided with screw holes 11, by which the horn support is firmly and permanently secured to the graph.
In practice the small end. of the horn is inserted into the enlarged vertical opening in the elbow 8, where it may be adjusted to any direction in a horizontal plane. The firmness of the support will permit the use of very large overhanging horns as well as the type of horn shown in Fig. 5. In the latter case, from the peculiar shape of the horn it is well balanced, and produces noappreciable lateral strain.
motor plate-12 of the phono- It will thus be seen that I have accomplished the obiects of my invention wit-ha simple neat anu effective support, by the use of which the old and cumbersome horn crane is entirely dispensed with, and at the same time the support carries means for'holding the soundbox in proper position relative to the sound record. I
,A horn support for phonographs comprising a single casting, having a vflat circular base with mea'ns for securing the same to the horizontal motor plate of a phonograph, an inclined standard extending upwardly and rearwardly from said base, said standardhaving at its upper 'end a tubular elbow, one of whose arms extends vertically upward and the other of whose arms extends horizontally outward, said vertical arm having a shouldered socket therein to receive and support an amplifying horn and said horizontal arm having a set screw and a locating slot therein for rigidly securing and connecting the thimble of a sound box thereto.
