CARL LEHNERT, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 121,790, dated December 12, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CARL LEHNERT, of Boston,
in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Chimes for Reed and Pipe Organs and other Instruments, andl do hereby declare that the follo win g is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification.
My invention consists in having the steel bars or plates used for chimes in pipe and reed organs and other instruments flanged at each edge to improve and strengthen the tones of said plates, which have heretofore been only used in plane flat form.
Figure 1 is a transverse section of the action of a reed organ and longitudinal section of one of the said plates, showing one way in which these chimes may be applied to a reed organ. Fig. 2 is a crosssection of one of the chimes as I propose to make them; and Fig. 3 is a crosssection, showing the form in which they have been heretofore used, both in pipe and reed-organs, to which they have been appliediby the Hooks of Boston, and othersQi? My invention consists only in having these chime-plates or bars of steel A flanged at the edges, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, at B, instead of making them plane and flat, as shown at A, Fig. 3, whereby I greatly improve the volume and strength of the tones. It also makes more harmonious tones. The India-rubber pieces 0,
short bars D, and plates E are merely introduced to show th e mann er of suspending the said chi mes,
