CABINET SOUND-REPRO DUCING MACHINE.
To cll 'wlzom it may concern:
Be' it known that I, HENRY C. MILLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at 'lVaterford, in the county of 'Saratoga and- State of New York, have invented certain new and usefullmprovements in Cabinet- Sound-Reproducing Machines, of which the following is a specification. Y
My invention relates to improvements in sound reproducing machines.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a supplemental cabinet 'unit having a sound modifying chamber with a sound passage.therethrough, sai cabinet unit being'associa ted witlrany of the well known types oftalking machines in order to vary the reproduced sound. The unit is so constructed that it may be readily associated with a talking machine or removed therefrom to permit said parts to be employed in conjunction with each other or to enable the talkingmachine to be used alone, according as desired.
A further object of the invention is'to provide a sound chamber-having a sound passage therethrough and inelosing a plurality of spaced partition members which subdivide the interior of said chamber and act on the sound waves.
For a'full, clear, and exactdescription of my present invention, reference may be had to the followingspecification andto the accompanying drawings'forming a part thereof, inwhic T Figure 1' isa side elevation of a cabinet unit partlybroken away, and a talking machine of-the Vic-trola typeassociated there'- 0 with. Fig-2 isa 'plan view of one of the partition'm'embers' employed in the cabinet unit. Fig. 3 asimilarview' .of another one of the {partition members. 'Fig. 4 is a view similar to F igl'l', but illustrating :the i i use of thelcabinet-unitrwith.a talking ma ",chineha-virig an exposed amplifier; Fig. 5
- to sound. Arrange is a plan view of a'cabinet unit with stilla flfurthe'rfstyle "of talking machine, the said unit being 'shownpart'ially in section. 4 -Tlie 'n'umeralfl, ind cates a hollow cab-.
inet unit providing a, sound chamber 1 and having a passa e therethrough .jfor the within the sound chambar 1; in inclined position, areztwo spaced cations of the invention, as above illustrated, the reproduced so'undfr'om the talking masubstantially parallel partition membersS and 10, which serveto subdivide the interior maybe adjusted upon the shelf compartments as shown. The partition member 8 is provided-with a plurality of i Specification of Letters ?a tent. p t t Ji ly 13, 1915, Application filed May 21, 1909. Serial No. 497,549. i
opening 2 preferably located at a point be- I tween the partitionmembers, and a plurality of outlet openings 3 are provided in the cabinet at points on opposite sides of the partition members from said inlet opening, whereby to cause the sound waves to pass through the entire chamber and be acted upon by said partition members.
Fig. 1 of the drawings illustrates the use of my improved cabinet unit in connection with a talking-machine 15 of the Victrola type, and for convenience a flexible or other suitable sound conduit 16 is interposed between said talking machine and the cabinet unit, but it will be apparent that this is not Y essential. The talking machine shown in Fig. 1 comprises a cabinet 17, a motor 17*, a reproducer 18, and a sound tube and amplifier 19,:111 said parts being of well known construction and specifically forming no part of the present invention.
In the application of the inventi-onshown in Fig: 4, the cabinet unit i-sprovided on', one of its side Walls with a shelf 1-9, on which is supported a talking machine 20.
This talking; machine is of the exposed horn type, and includes acasing 21, afreproducer and an exposed sound conveyer and amplifier 23. The mouth of the amplifier isfitted in, oris in communication with the inlet opening".2, and the talkingmachine purpose. "InFig. 5 a taIkingmachineBO oflthe Aux-ei-to-phonetypehas my improved cabinet unit associated therewith, an amplifier chine'is introduced into tlie soundichamber of the cabinet unit through the inlet opening 2, and because'of the construction and arrangement of the partition members and the location of the outlet openings 3, the reproducing means is in communication with the entire chamber and the ,sound separate the same, as the two are wholly inde )endent of each other.
t is evident that the term sound cham- I 'ber as herein employed in the specification "'and claims, comprehends any sound chamber 26 with a sound passage thcrethrough for modifying or amplifying reproduced sound, and
' it is to be understood of course that the spaced partitions inclosed within said sound.
chamber may be of any suitable form or 30 construction within the purview of the appended claims.
What I claim is z- 1. In a'talking machine, the combination /of a hollow body having a sound chamber with an inlet and outlet for sound, sound reproducing means in communication with 4 said entire chamber, and a plurality of spaced partition members .mounted within said sound chamber and subdividing the 40 interior thereof and acting on the sound waves.
2. In a talking machine, the combination of a hollow body having a sound chamber with an inlet and outlet for sound, sound reproducing means located outside of said chamber and in communication with said entire chamber, and a plurality of spaced partition members mounted within said sound chamber and subdividing the interior thereof and acting on the sound Waves.
3. In a talking machine, the combination of a hollow body having a sound chamber with an inlet and an outlet for sound, sound reproducing means in communication with '55 said inlet, the sound passing through said entire chamber, and a plurality of spaced partition members within said sound chamb r and subdividing the interior thereof. ,,4., In
talkingmachine, the combination W of a, ho ow body having a sound ,chamber with an inlet and an outlet for sound,
sound re roducing means in communication with mi entire chamber, and aplurahty f spaced partition members within and ,e
tending entirely between certain we 5 of said chamber and subdividing the interior thereof. I
5. Ina talking machine, the combination of a hollow body having a sound chamber with an inlet and outlet for sound, sound reproducing means in communication with said entire chamber, and aplurality of spaced substantially parallel partition members mounted within said sound chamber and subdividing the interiorthereof and acting on the sound waves.
6. Ina talking machine, the combination of a hollow body having a sound chamber with aninlet and an outlet for sound, sound reproducing means in communication with said entire chamber, and a plurality of spaced partition members within and extending between opposite walls of said chamber and subdividing the interior therereproducing means in communication with said inlet and thereby with said entire chamber, and a partition member within said.
chamber and subdividing the interior thereof and acting on the sound waves, said partition member being inclined with respect, to thelongitudina-l axis of said chamber.
8. In a talking machine,'the combination of a. hollow bod havin a sound chamber with an inlet an an outlet for sound, sound re roducing means in communication with said entire chamber, and a partition memher having openings theiethrough, said member being mounted within said sound chamber and subdividing the interior thereof and actin on the sound waves.
9. In a tafiring machine, the combination of a hollow body having a sound chamber with an inlet and outlet for sound, sound reproducing means in communication with said entire chamber, and a partition member within said chamber and subdividing the interior thereof and acting on the sound waves, the saidinlet and outlet for-sound being locatedon opposite sides of the plane of said partition member. I i
10. In combination with a. talking machine including sound reproducing means and sound amplifying means commun catnetunit haviiig a sound modifying chambord with a, sound passage 'therethrough, into In testimony whereof I afiix my signature which said conduit discharges the sound, in presence of two witnesses. said supplemental unit being independent HENRY C MILLER v of said talking machine and separable from said conduit, and said talking machine be- Witnesses:
