PROCESS OF MAKING SOUND-RECORJSS.
To all whom it may concern 7 lie it known that l, ltnoan M. BERLINnR, a citizen of the United States of America,
and a resident of Montreal, in the Province A of Quebec, Dominion of tanada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Processes of Making Sound-Records, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to the production of sound-records and relates more particularly to the manufacture of that type of sound-records in which the phonetic characters of a matrix are reproduced in intaglio in a substance or composition which in the art is designated as the surface coatin or glaze of the record.
eretofore, been produced by the application of a glaze or surface coating to the matrix, and also to the surface of the base of the tablet or disk, the different layers of material being united by heat and pressure, and in some instances a powdered glaze which consists principally of shellac has been applied to the surface of the matrix by means of a seive. Another known method having for its object the production of sound-records, involves the use of a mixture that is rolled upon the negative matrix. The foregoing methods'or processes are typical of those known or in use and disclose various attempts that have been made to obviate or avoid the presence of air bubbles or pits in the commercial records, as well as efforts to without the employment of methods and materials the cost of which would be prohibitive.
The object of my invention is to provide the matrix with a coating, particularly that part of the matrix which contains the phonetic characters, which coating will be free from pits, air bubbles, cavities and the like and which coating is a perfect intaglio reproductionof the phonetic characters of the matrix. The result is accomplished by eliminating moisture, air, gas or any particles from between the matrix and the surface that is'being formed, also eliminating air or as from the coating material itself. This intaglio provides a sound-groove in the commercial record in which such defects in re ticles as dust, and from the trapping 0 air Specification of Letters Patent.

are eliminated.
My method orprocess not only eliminates in the product or sound-record, imperfections which are incident to a perfect reproduction of the phonetic characters of the matrix, but has other advantages among which may be mentioned, the use of less coating material, a gain in the ra idity of production, less wear of the matrix, and a more perfect record surface.
My method or'process consists in projecting record surfacing material against the matrix with force sufficient to dislodge air, gases, and foreign particles from the matrix, to form a unified coating upon the matrix to which it adheres and from which it may not of itself be readily separated and han dled. it subsequently becomes a part of a sound record tablet. When this coating or film is applied to the matrix it provides a protective covering and eliminates to a great extent wear of the matrix incident to the movement of a plastic under pressure against the matrix. The coating may be reinforced for handling by projecting other material thereon while still in contact with the matrix, but it is preferably united by heat and pressure with a base that is applied while the film-like coating is still in contact with the matrix, separation from the matrix taking place on cooling. The application of the coating or surfacing material against the matrix involves the use of air, fluid or liquid under pressure or compression, to project the coating or surfacing material against the matrix.
or gas between the matrix and the coating The preferred material that I use, is shellac which may, be dissolved in alcohol, though I. may use as a coating mat'erialfor the matrix, any suitable material in a fluid or solution state or form which may be pro jected with force against the matrix and when so projected adheres thereto, uccessive or further impacts will tend to force the material intointimate adherence with the matrix to give the desired result. I do not limit myself to the application of a liquid or fluid material as a coating or surfacing material for the matrix, as shellac in a dry and pulverent or powdered form, with or without other substances may be successfully applied when projected with sufficient orce upon or against a heated matrix to form a unified coating. The force 5 it also being within the scope of my -invention to recover such solvents as may be employed to liquefy the shellac or other coating material. In practice, thecoating material that is to be projected and impacted is. preferably first reduced to a liquid state, in
which it may be heated; under pressure it is then sprayed, jetted or projected against the matrix, the material moving with high velocity strikes the matrix with considerable force, and produces a perfect intaglio of the matrix.
Theisurface coating material, is sprayed, jetted or projected against the matrix,either from a single orifice, or from a plurality of orifices. When the matrix or the source that emits the coating material is movable, or when the pressure that is app ied to the coating material is varied, a strea ma result.
he surfacing material may be applied in a heated condition to the matrix. It may be applied to a heated matrix. Successive coats of the same material or of different materials may be applied in the manner herein set forth.
In practice the coating material maybe directed against the matrix so that the direction of impact will be in line with the phonetic characters thereon, or the raised '35 portion of the matrix which forms in the .record the" sound groove, or spirally with reference to the center. or perimeter of a disk tablet.
