NICOLAUS KOLBY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
PHONOGRAPH-RECORD HOLDER.

Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 15, 1921.
Application filed March 29, 1920. Serial No. 369,799.
To all 'whom z't may concern:
Be it known that I, Nicolaus Koller, a citizen oi.I the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State oi' illinois, have invented certain new and useiul Improvements in Phonograph-Record holders, oi which the followingr 1s a specification.
This invention relates to holders or racks for containing disk phonograph records and has for its main object to provide a simple, inexpensive and efficient holder or rack which may be located within the usual record tiling space of a phonograph cabinet, ii desired, or may be located at any convenient place outside oi' said cabinet, and will serve to support the records in compact order and in such a manner that individual records may be quickly withdrawn from or returned to the holder without danger of injury through contact with each other or with the metallic parts of the holder.
Another object is to provide a holdery wherein the records shall be supported side by side in close parallel relation and without danger of striking each other.
Another object is to provide an improved back-stop for the records that shall be foldable within the main frame of the holder for economy of space in packing and shipping the device.
A still further object is to provide an improved holder capable of receiving and containing disk records of different sizes.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, taken in connection vwith the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a front elevation oi my improved holder; and,
F ig. 2 is a vertical transverse section ot the same, the back-stop being shown in full lines in its operative position, and in dotted lines in its folded or idle position.
Referring to the drawing, 5 designates the top member, 6- the bottom member, ancl 7 the vert-ical side members Extending between the top and bottom frame members 5 and 6 is a series of parallel round metal rods 8, the central portions of which are bent or bowed rearwardly as shown at 8. The upper and lower ends of these rods lie against the front faces of the frame members 5 and 6, and are entered within grooves or mortises 9 and 1() being adapted of a rectangular` formed in the rear faces of upper and lower fastening strips 1l and 12 secured to the` front faces of the frame members 5 and 6, respectively as by means of screws 13. To prevent turning movement of the rods, one end of each rod (lower end as herein shown) is formed with a forwardly extending foot 14 which lies within a hole or socket 15 formed in the attaching strip to receive it.
Oneach rod is mounted a series of spacing sleeves 16 of rubber, felt or like soft material, these sleeves serving to space and laterally support the record disks lying between adjacent. rods and to prevent contact of the disks with the metal rods which might scratch and otherwise injure the grooved surfaces of the disks. It will be observed that the rearward bending of the intermediate portions of the rods, with the application of spacing sleeves 16 at the upper, lower and intermediate points of the bent portions 8 insures three points oi contact on the disk which are out of line with each other, thereby preventing any lateral tilting or swinging of the disks. which might cause them to strike each other, and holding the disks to true parallelism.
Hinged at 17 in the vertical side frame members 'T are the ends of a bail-shaped back-stop 18 that serves to limit the extent to Awhich the record disks can be entered in the holder. l have herein shown the transverse member of this back-stop, with which the edges of the disks come'in contact, as comprising two relatively offset portions 19 and 20, the portion 19 of shorter radius being adapted to cooperate with the small records indicated at A by dotted lines in Fig. 2, and the portion 20 of longer radius to cooperate with disks oi largerV size indicated by dotted lines at B. This back-stop is capable of being swung upwardly to a position within the main frame, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2, thus enabling'the holder to be packed within a box of substantially the dimensions of the frame itself. When swung downwardly to operative position, the sides of the backstop are arrested and supported in proper position by pins or screws 21 in the inner sidesA of the frame members 7. as clearly shown in Fig. 2.
By reference toFig. 2, it will be noted that the top surface of the lower frame bar 6 is inclined downwardly and rearwardly, as shown at 22, thus causing the record disks,
use,
when entered between the supporting rods to roll by gravity rearwardly into contact with the back-stop. This inclined surface 22 is preferably provided with a cloth or felt covering 23 to avoid wear on theperipheries of the disks, Y
On the front of the bottom fastening'strip tural details maybe modified Without departing from the principle of the invention or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof. Hence, I' reserve all such variations and modifications as fall Within the spirit and v purview of the appended claims.
I claim :-v Y l.A A phonograph record holder, comprising a rectangular frame, a series of parallel rods mounted in and extending between Vopposite sides of said frame, and a back-stop extending rearwardly of and hinged toV said frame and oldable to an idle position With-v in the latter.
- 2. A phonograph record holder, comprising a rectangular upright frame, a series of parallel rods mounted in and extending between the uper vand lower sides of said frame7 and a bail-shaped back-stop hinged in the vertical side members of said frame and foldable between an operative position extending' rearwardly of said frame and an idle position within said Jrrame.
3. A phonograph recordholder, comprising' a rectangular upright frame, a series of parallel rods mounted in and extending' between the top and bottom members of said frame, and a bail-shaped back-stop mounted on and extending rearwardly of said frame, the transverse member of said back-stop having relatively offset portions lying at e l different distances from said' frame and adapted to coperate with record disks of different diameters.
i-A phonograph record holder, comprising a rectangular upright frame, a series of parallel rods mounted in and extending betiveen the top and bottom members of said traine, Vand a bail-shaped back-stop hinged in the vertical side members of said frame and oldable between an operative position extending rearwardly/'of said frame and an idle positionfwithin said lframe, the transverse member of said back-stop having relatively Voiset portions lying at different radial distances from the axis Aof'said backstop and adapted to cooperate with records'V of different diameters.
