HOLDER FOR DISK RECORDS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 4, 1920.
Application filed September 16, 1919. Serial No. 324.180.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that L'FRANK GRAMMIOH, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Holder for Disk Records, of which the following is a description.
My invention relates to a holder which while particularly adapted for holding disk records is capable of use for other purposes. More particularly the invention is intended for embodiment in a holder for disk records, of a character to constitute a complete container for the records or adapted to be received on the shelves of talking machine cabinets.
The general object of the invention is to provide a holder for the indicated purpose formed of rigid material in the form of a case or container and so arranged as to accommodate a reasonable number of records that may be conveniently inserted or, removed and to so form the container that it may be given back support after the manner of an easel to promote the accessibility of the records and their convenient handling.
A further important object of the invention is to provide a secure inter-en agement between the holder and its supporting member when in the supporting position.
More specifically, the invention has for its object to provide a construction in which closure members of the holder are made to constitute also the easel leg or supporting means.
The above objects and others as will appear are attained by the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter particularly described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, it being understood that thedrawings are merely illustrative of one example of the invention.
Figure 1 is a front view of the holder in the open condition to afford access to the record compartments;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the holder in the open condition;
Fig. 3 is a vertical section on the line 3-3, Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is an end view of the closed holder, parts being broken away and others shown in section.
In carrying out my invention in accordance with the illustrated example, a container body 10 is provided in the form of a broad rectangular box having a fixed frontelement 11 rising from the bottom of the box for half the height thereof, thereby forming a closure of the lower portion of the box leaving the upper portion open to afford accessibility to compartments formed by fixed partitions 12 of stiff material and parallel or approximately so with the back and front of the container, the partitions being of increasing height from the front toward the back to give a stepped arrangement, whereby the box presents compartments 12 of successively greater depth to ward the back for accommodating disk records of various sizes.
A swingable front closure 13 is provided and preferably has an area to cover the complete front including a covering for the fixed front member 11. Said closure 13 is hinged to the top closure lt in any suitable manner as by a flexible paper or fabric connection 15 and said top closure is hinged at its back edge to the back of the box 10 by a flexible strip of paper, fabric, or the like as at 16. The arrangement is such that the closures 13 and 141 may be swung from the closing position as in Fig. 4 to the back of the box 10 as in Fig. 3 in which it will be observed that the top closure 14 lies parallel with the back of the box 1.0 close to the same while the front closure 13 is swung rearwardly on its hinge 15 and disposed at an angle to constitute a support in the form of a broad easel leg. The lower end of the front closure 13 terminates in a lip or flange 17 directed rearwardly to overlap the bottom of the box at the under side giving strength to the structure whenclosed. Said front closure 1.3 may be tied by suitable tapes or ribbons 18, here shown as secured at one end to the box 10 at each side by pasted strips 19 so that the respective side tapes may be brought over the front of the box and tied as indicated in Fig. 4.
The lower portion 20 of the closure 13 having the flange or lip 17 is hingedly connected with the main portion of said closure by a suitable hinge connection such as a flexible strip 21, whereby when the closure 13 is in the supporting position at the back of the box as in Fig.3, said lower member 20 may be swung to a position approximately at right angles to the general plane of the member 13 and toward the back of the box 10 to constitute a'brace and a connecting medium between the supporting member 13 and the box in which position of the member 20 the lip 17 is adapted to be engaged behind an upstanding flange or lip 22 on the back of the box 10 at the bottom and spaced from the latter to accommodate said lip 17 so that there is an interlocking engagement between the supporting mem ber or easel leg and the body of the box as clearly shown in Fig. 3. The element 13 is provided with a member 23 thereon adj acent to the hinge 21 and extending above and below the hinge joint, the upper portion of said member being glued or otherwise suitably fastened while the lower portion below the hinge is free so that when the hinge member 20 is swung laterally inward into engagement with the box 10 at the lip 22, the member 23 will extend below the member 20 for contact with the table surface or other support.
The above described structure constitutes a stiff container for the records so that the filled container may be readily placed on the shelves of a talking machine and conveniently removed therefrom. Or, when desired, the container may be supported in inclined position and in open condition on a table top so that the particular records may be readily accessible and conveniently replaced in the container.
In practice the partitions 12 at the sides are numbered in sequence from one to twelve as at 24 and on the front 11 are series of lines numbered as at 241 to correspond with the numbers 24 and adapted to bear the names of records.
I would state in conclusion that while the illustrated example constitutes a practical embodiment ofmy invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the mechanical details herein illustrated, since manifestly the same can be considerably varied without departure from the spirit of the invention as de fined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, I
claim:
1. A holder of the class described including a box-like container, a front closure therefor hingedly connected to swing from the closing position at the front to a rearward position at the back of the container to constitutev a support for the latter, the lower portion of said front closure being hinged and terminating in a lip at approximately right angles to said hinge member, said lip when said closure is in position at the front of the container being adapted to lie beneath the container, and means on the container at the back adapted to engage said lip when the closure is in the rearward supporting position.
2. A holder of the class described including a container having an open top and an open front, a closure for said top hinged to the upper end of the back of the container, a closure for said open front hinged to the forward edge of the top closure, said front closure comprising an upper portion, and a lower portion hingedly connected to the upper portion, said top closure being adapted to be positioned depending against the back of the container, with the upper portion of the front closure at an angle thereto and the lower portion of the front closure engaging the back of the container and maintaining said upper portion of the front closure in spaced relation to said back.
3. A holder of the class described including a container having an open top and an open front, a closure for said top hinged to the upper end of the back of the container, a closure for said open front hinged to the forward edge of the top closure, said front closure comprising an upper portion, and a lower portion hingedly connected to the upper portion, said top closure being adapted to be positioned depending against the back of the container with the upper portion of the front closure at an angle thereto, and said lower portion of the front closure engaging the back of the container and maintaining said upper portion of the front closure in spaced relation to said back; together with coacting elements on the said lower portion of the front closure and on the container adapted for inter-engagement, and an extension at the lower end of the said upper portion of the front closure projecting below said lower portion of the front closure.
