Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 18, 1919.
Application filed January 6, 1916. Serial No. 70,648.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANCIS LrNcoLN YOUNG, a citizen of the United States, res1d at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Phonograph-Qab1- nets, of which the following is a speclfication.
My present invention relates to a combined door and record support in a phonograph cabinet, the more specific nature and advantages of which will be apparent from a consideration of the following specification in connection with the drawings.
In these, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a phonograph cabinet provided w1th a form of combined door and record support wlthin my invention; Fig. 2 is an enlarged vertical section of a portion of the cabinet showing the door in its open and record-supporting position; Fig. 3 1s a partial horizontal section showing a plan view of the door in its said open position; Fig. 4is a view of the guide and the connected link as seen from that face of the guide which abuts against the side of the horn in the cabinet: Fig. 5 is a partial vertical section showing the door open by the dotted lines, and inclosed posltion by the full lines; Fig. 6 1s a partlal horizontal section showing one side of the cabinet horn-opening and one edge of the door, which is in closed positlon, and further showing the link and guide, and the flange on the door for concealing said parts; Fig. 7 is a partial vertical section illustrating one side of the horn-opening of the ca b1- net together with the vertically slotted gulde and. the link.
Proceeding now with the description of the specific devices of the drawings l is a phonograph cabinet having a cover 2, an internal shelf or deck 3, a record turntable 4, and a horn 5 inclosed in the cabinet and leading to an opening in the front wall thereof.
6 is a door for said opening whlch may consist of a skeleton frame 6 as-shown, supporting a fabric or perforate or mesh material 6 across it. 6 are slats across the record-supporting face of the door which form a grating to protect said fabric from the records.
77 are hinges pivotally connectin the lower horizontal edge of the door with the bottom of the horn-opening in the cabinet.
. strument.
Means is provided for supporting the door in an open position wherein it is substantlally horizontal and thereby adapted to support disk records, thus constituting said door an especially convenient shelf on which to place records which have either just been played or are about to be played in the in- The means shown comprises a l nk 8 whose lower end is pivoted at 9 to the side edge of the door and Whose upper end has a laterally projecting pin 10 working 1n the vertical slot of a guide 11, the pin having a head 12 on the inner face of the guide to prevent the withdrawal of the pin from the slot. The guide is secured'to the side of the horn-opening in the cabinet by the screws 14: and is so located that when the link reaches the lower limit of the slot in the guide, it supports or maintains the door 6 in a substantially horizontal position wherein it is adapted to support records as above stated.
The described link and slotted guide may be duplicated on both sides as shown in Fig. 1.
Finally I contrive to conceal said links and guides from being seen when the door is closed b providing flanges 15 on the sideedges of t e door (best seen in Figs. 1, 3 or 6) behind which the links are located. Preferably these flanges 15 overlap the sides of the opening in the cabinet as in Fig. 6, so that they completely conceal not only the links but also the slotted guides as well.
The grated door pivoted at its lower edge to the ower edge of the horn opening. and the cooperating stop means to limit the downward swing of the door and to support the latter when it reaches the horizontal position, provides convenientmeans for supporting disk records, either before or after they have been played. When the door is used as a support for the records, the re cesses or depressions which are present in its upper record-receiving surface and which are formed by the spaces between the slats or gratings 6, enable the operator to reach with the finger beneath the edge of the rec- 0rd and hence the record can be easily and quickly picked up from the door without the necessity of sliding the record on the door rate soimd-transn1itting structure which ere tends across the spaces between the slats and hence such fabric or structure is protected from injury.
'hat I claim is:-
1. A phonograph cabinet. having a horn opening therein, a door having a grating and a perforate structure extending across the spaces of the grating and capable of permitting sound to pass therethrough, said door being pivot-ed at. its lower edge to the lower edge of the horn opening and capable of swinging downwardly into a horizontal position to receive and support a disk record thereon, the grating aotingto protect said perforate structure from njury by the record, and stop means for limiting the dovvn- Ward swing of the door and for supporting the door in its horizontal record-supporting position.
A phonograph cabinet, having an opening in one side thereof; a door for said opening, embodying a skeleton frame hinged at. its bottom to the lower Wall of said opening, a strip of mesh-material secured to said frame. and a plurality of slats extending; across the inner face of said inesh1naterial and secured at their ends to the frame; and a support ;t'or said door, comprising a longitudinally slotted, vertical guide rigidly fixed to one of the ve-rtial walls of said opening. and a link pivoted at one end to the adjacent side edge of the door and provided at its other end with a pin arranged to travel in the slot in said guide during the move ments of the door, said pin having a head bearing against the inner face of the guide to prevent withdrawal of said pin from said slot; said pin, on reaching the bottom of said slot, being adapted to hold said door in a substantially-horizontal posit-ion to form a record-supporting shelf, with the record resting on said slats to prevent injury to said mesh-material from the record.
In testiinony-whereof, I have signed my name to this specification this fifth day of January, 1916.
FRANCIS LINCOLN YOUNG.
