WITNESSES C INVENTOR Z m6 IC/N in configuration What I term a sound spiral or the configuration of a nautilus shell when viewed in a trans-axial section. Furthermore, this cup also simulates the tympanum of the human ear and the individual gToWthpartitions of the nautilus shell. This cup 2 may be suitably supported as by'friction or by soldering from the three Wires D at the points 3, e and I prefer that the contour and configuration of this cup 2 be such that the eccentric cupola or umbo 6 of the cup be located in the proportionate distance fromthe points 3, at and 5, respectively 3, a and'5 units as shown in the drawings. 1
likewise prefer to locate the cup 2 Within the conical receptacle G substantially, so
that the points 3, i, and 5 are r spectively at distances in the proportions 5, a and 8 from the most adjacent portions of the interior-of the conical receptacle G, all shown in the drawings.
I preferably construct vthe cup 2 of size so that its content-volume approice inates the contentvolume of the mouth cavity of the human voice anatomy.
A rod E projecting through the ring K at the end of the conical receptc ted with a chuck and set screw; purpose of holding a suitable vibration cooperator shown in the form of a stylus N. This rod E is suitably extended and secured to thenmbo 6 of the cup In this Way I have provided a vibratory medium in the form of the cup :2 which I vmay describe as havingvibratory functions in planes of many directions and also as havingvibratory pitch periods coiirdinating in the proportion 3, 4i and 5, just as is present in the tympanum of the hum-an ear.
The better to carry out further refine ments in sound functioning I propose the employment not merely of a single vibratory means such as the single cup 2 hut contemplate in amplification the employment of a complete nest or set of cups A oil which I have shown eight in all, seven nested Within the cup 2. Likewise, l". have appreciated the advantage of the employment of a plurality of nests of cups and have illustrated three nests, B and (l in addition to the nest A. In the nest B the cup 2 I prefer to form of a volumetric capacity equivalent to the volumetric capacity of the nasal cavities of the human voice (i is fittor the.
of the cups of the various sets regardless of how many or how many cups 111 a set are employed, so that sound vibrations from each cup are transferred to and through the rod E to the stylus N, or vibrations are transferred from the stylus N to and through the rod E to reproduced as sound by the cups.
It is who understood that the conical receptacle G and the spiral horn l are useful in amplifying the sound or vibrations made through the functioning of the cup or cups and that the positioning of each cup permits sound reflection Without interference.
"What I claim and WhatI desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is:
1. In a sound-functioning mechanism, a vibratory medium in the shape of an eccen tric cuphaped diaphragm; and vibration transmitting means cooperating with said diaphragm at the umbo of eccentricity,
2. in sound mechanism, a sound diaphragm having a substantially circular periphery and being cup-shaped with the locality of maximum displacement space-d in substantially the proportion of 3, 4: and 5 from three equi-distant points at the periphery of the diaphragm.
3. In sound mechanism, a diaphragm approximating the shape of the tym-panum of the human ear; and a transmitter of vibrations cooperating with said diaphragm at the locality corresponding to the umbo of the human tympaniun.
4. In unsound mechanism, an eccentric cupshaped diaphragm having a volumetric capacity approximatingthe volumetric capacity of one oi. the three cavities of the human voice anatomy.
