TALKING-MACHINE.
To all-whom it may concern Bje'it known that I, winrunn SAMPSON SA tin-1., 1-esi 1ing at 32" Worship street, London,E. (3., England, Great Britain, have 5 invented acertain new and useful Improvement in Talking-Machines; and I. do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to in'iprovements in gramophones or like talking machines of the type known as the deflector or reflex type, in which the usual large horn or trumpet is replaced by a deflector opposite to which the conduit or small trumpet leading fromthe tone arm is situated.
It is well known in connection with talking machines that it is desirable as far as possible that dust and foreign matter should not be allowed to enter the tone arms and fittings. For this purpose it has already been proposed in machines of this character to construct the machine in such a manner that the outer continuity of the connection between the sound-box and trumpet need never be broken.
The object of the present invention is to devise an improved form of machine of the above character, and the invention consists of the combination in a talking machine of the type referred to, of a casing, a cover hinged thereon, a deflector arranged with its axis transverse to said cover, a trumpet secured to said deflector and with one end in alinement with the axis of said deflector, a
tone arm universally jointed to the other end of said trumpet and means for retaining said tone arm within the cover when. required.
.In the accompanying drawing, which illustrates one method of carrying the invention into'eflect as applied to a gramophone,
Fi re 1 is a perspective view showing the gramophone in its open position,
Fi 2 is an elevation showing the tone arm 111 the position for closing the cover, and Fig. 2 is an enlarged side elevation partly in section, of the trumpet and tone arm.
A casing A carrying the motor, etc., and the turn table B has hinged. to it a cover 0 by means of hinges C. The cover is maintained in its open position by means of a strut C. A deflector D provided with flanges D is secured in the cover C by screws Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 4, 1917.
Application filed February 3, 1915. Serial No. 5,907.
in the manner shown at E The deflector s made of metal, and is bowl shaped, and
in face view with the flanges is rectangular. Secured within the bowl of the deflector is a hollow member or short trumpet F, the upper open end of which is positioned a short distance from the bowl and in alinement with its axis. The member F is secured by brackets F as shown. The hollow 5 member is flared at its upper end and the lower end is provided. with a hollow T piece (it. The member G is held in the member F so as to turn by means of the piri f on the trumpet engaging the groove g in the memher (i, and has a cylindrical sleeve Gr in which the tone arm H has its bearing. The tone arm H is therefore universally jointed with respect to the member or trumpet F. The sleeve G is provided with a slot K, and secured to the tone arm and passing through the slot K is a thumb screw K The tone arm H carrying the sound box L is shaped as shown in Fig. 2 to which position the tone arm can be moved to change a needle 30 or record.
The gramophone when in use is as shown in Fig. 1. When it is desired to close the machine, the tone arm H is moved to the position shown in Fig. 2, where it is housed within the deflector D. It is secured in this position by means of the thumb screw K The cover C can now be closed down. It will be seen that the machine can be closed without detaching the tone arm or sound box.
Various modifications can be made in the manner of carrying this invention into effect. For instance the hollow member or trumpet F can be secured in or near the deflector in any suitable manner other than that shown, and other means of locking the tone arm in position may be employed. The deflector can be made of any suitable material such as wood, papier mfich, vulcanite or the like, and could itself act as a cover.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let'- ters Patent is 1. In a talking machine of thetype referred to, the combination of acasing, a cover hinged thereon, a bowl shaped deflector mounted in said, cover and arranged with its axis transverse to said cover, a. trumpet secured to said deflector and with one end in alinement with the axis of said deflector, a tone arm universally jointed to theother end of said trumpet and means for retaining said tone arm within said deflector when required.
2. In a talking machine of the type referred to, the combination of a casing, a cover hinged thereon, a bowl shaped deflector mounted in said cover and arranged with its axis transverse to said cover, a trumpet secured to said deflector and with one end in alinement with the axis of said deflector, a hollow T piece pivoted to the other end of said trumpet, a tone arm having one end pivoted to said hollow T piece, and means for retaining said tone arm within said deflector when required.
3. In a talking machine of the type referred to, the combination of ace-sing, a cover hinged thereon, a bowl shaped deflector mounted in said cover and arranged with its axis transverse to said cover, a trumpet secured to said deflector and with one end in alinement with the axis of said leflector, a hollow T-piece pivoted to the other end of said trumpet, a tone arm having one end pivoted to said hollow T-piece and means for clamping said tone arm in said T- iece when the tone arm has been moved lnto the position in which it lies within said deflector.
4. In a talking machine of the type referred to, the combination of a casing, a cover hinged thereon, a bowl-shaped deflector mounted in said cover and arranged with its axis transverse to said cover, a short trumpet within the bowl of and secured to said deflector with one end in alinement with the axis of said deflector, a hollow T- piece pivoted to the other end of said trumpet, a tone arm having one end pivoted to said T piece and a set screw fitted to said tone arm and adapted to project through a slot in said hollow T piece.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
