MU'SIC LYRE HOLDER. APPLICATION FILED JAN. 19, 1920.

ATTORNEYS I WILLIAM CUEEAN REID, OF ELKHART, INDIANA.
MUSIC-LYRE HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented. May 3, 1921.
Application filed January 19, 1920. Serial No. 352,336.
To (ZZZ whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, rimmer CURRAN Emu, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Elkhart, in the county of El:- hart and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Music-Lyre Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to music racks and has reference more particularly to music lyre holders such as used on hand instruments.
An object of the invention is to produce a device for use on such band instruments as a clarinet and the like in which the lyre portion is held securely to the support, without the use of set screws such as is the common practice.
Another object is to provide a music lyre holder for use on a clarinet havinga clamping ring to encircle the body of the instrument.
Another object is to provide a music lyre holder for use on any band instrument by attaching it to a suitable base or plate so that it may be either clamped, soldered, or otherwise attached to the instrument.
With this and other objects in view my invention consists in certain novel features of construction, arrangement and combina tion of parts, as will. be hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of the device as in use,
Fig. 2 is a-vertical section through the stem socket, I I
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary side elevation showing a portion of the clamp band and socket thereon;
Fig. 4 is a perspective showing stem and slip collar, and
Fig. 5 is a sectional. view showing a modification.
In carrying out my invention in its pres ent form a split band A is used which is of conventional type and constitutes the base of the holder having the straining ears a, a of which a is internally threaded to be en gaged by the winged screw B which is applied to the straining ears (I, a in a manner well known. In the present instance the split collar is applied to a clarinet and clamped thereon at the desired point by manipulating winged screw B. However, any suitable support or base may be used in place of band A which be used on any band instrument by attaching it to a suitable base or plate so that it may be either clamped, soldered or otherwise attached to the instrument. I
Extending upwardly from such base A is a tubular socket, C, having a closed lower end C and preferably externally threaded at its upper end C In the upper edges of the socket member semi-circular notches c, a are made, such notches being preferably placed diametrically opposite each other, or in alinement.
These notches o are designed to receive and seat oppositely projecting circular nibs or pins D projecting from the stem or standard D of the lyre. Y
Slidably mounted on the stem or standard is an internally threaded slip collar E the upper wall 6 of which has the unthreaded perforation e which corresponds in shape to the cross section of the stem or standard D The stem or standard D has rigidly secured to its upper end the lyre, F, which may be of conventional type the stem D and lyre F being preferably made integral, or secured together by welding, brazing or soldering.
The manner of assembling the device is as follows: The internally threaded collar E is slid upwardly on the or standard D and the nibs'or pins D which are really ineffect keys are droppedor placed in the notches or key seats 0, in the upper edge of the socket (l gthe collar E is then run down on the stem and screwed on to the top of the socket post until the upper wall contacts and grips said nibs securely, holding them a gainst any movement whatever. The split band A, which is resilient, is then sprung onto the clarinet, or other similar instrument, and securely clamped thereon by turning up the winged bolt B.
The device is now ready for use, and it will be readily seen that no vibration can cause the parts to become loosened, and that there are no screws or pins that can become loosened and lost.
While I have shown nibs projecting from the stem of lyre and fitting in notches or.
slots in the upper end of the tubular socket, such notches or slots, or grooves may be disposed lengthwise or parallel to the bore of the tubular post, with either pins, lugs or ribs on the stem to enter the same and held in that position by the internally screw threaded collar or ferrule.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a modification in which the socket C is shown as extending upwardly from a plate A which may be either clamped, soldered, or otherwise attached to the instrument. The upper end of the socket C is externally threaded, and the upper edge is provided with one or more notches C which are to receive teeth or lugs C extending downwardly from a rigid ferrule or collar C on the stem D The slip collar E has threaded engagement with the externally threaded upper end of the socket C and securely holds the stem in place against axial or longitudinal move ment.
I claim: 3
1. In a music lyre holder, the combination with a lyre-carrying stem or shank, of a base adapted to be secured a band instrument, a tubular post extending upwardly therefrom and in. which said stem or shank is keyed against axial movement, and a slip collar slidably mounted on said stem and engaging the keying means and locked to the said tubular post, whereby the said stem and post will be held against both longitudinal and axial movement with respect to each other.
2. In a music lyre holder, in combination, a lyre carrying stem, a key member pro jecting laterally therefrom, a base member adapted for attachment to a band instrument, a tubular socket member projecting upwardly from said base member and having key-seats at its upper end to seat said key member, whereby relative axial movement of said stem and socket will be prevented, and a slip collar slidably and ro tatably mounted on said stem, and coacting locking means carried by said socket and slip collar to positively lock them together,
and prevent relative movements between the stem, socket and slip collar.
3. In a device as herein characterized, the combination with a resilient split band and means for clamping the same upon a band instrument, a tubular post extending upwardly from the circumference of said band, the upper end of said post externally threaded and having notches forming key seats in its upper end, a lyre-carrying stem fitting in said tubular post, and complementary keys projecting laterally from said stem and engaging said notches, whereby relative axial movement of said stem and post is prevented, and an internally threaded collar loosely and slidably mounted on said stem and having an annular threaded flange adapted for engagement with the threaded upper end of the tubular post to hold the aforesaid keys of the stem seated in the notches of the tubular post and prevent relative axial as well as longitudinal movement of the stem, tubular post and collar.
l. In a device as herein characterized, the combination with an adjustable split ring adapted for connection with a band ins rument, a tubular supporting post extending upwardly therefrom the upper outer circumference of said post externally threaded, and the upper end of said post having recesses thereon, a lyre-stem or shank loosely fitting in said tubular post, a rigid member projecting laterally from said stem intermediate its ends, and adapted to mate with the recesses of the tubular post, and an annular ferrule or cap loosely mounted on said stem, said cap including a depending internally threaded flange adapted to cooperate with the threaded uoper end of the post, and lock the aforesaid recesses and laterally projecting member in mated relation, whereby either relative axial or longitudinal movement of the stem is prevented.
