the stand preparatory to using them as 00- casion requires.
The invention comprises a foldable frame similar to the music holder of an ordinary foldable music stand, and provided with clips adapted to beslipped on the stem of the stand to be held thereon by the elasticity of the clips. The supplemental music holder is in the form of a skeleton pocket adapted to grip the upright stem of the stand between the leg braces and the telescoping member to which the leg braces are attached. The supplemental holder is so constructed that it may be folded up into smaller com pass and flattened out to fit into the usual stand case when the latter is folded up, so that both the stand and the supplemental stand are reduced to small compass for transportation with the space occupied by both foldable structures adapted to the capacity of the stand case.
The invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, with the understanding, however, that the invention is not confined to any strict conformity with the showing of the drawing but may be changed and modifiedso long as such changes and modifications mark no material departure from the salient features of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the supplemental music holder in position to be attached to an extended music stand.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the structure of Fig. 1 in the folded condition.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a music stand extended and the supplemental holder also extended and attached thereto.
Referring to the drawing, there is shown in Fig. 3 a music stand A comprising an upmanner, so that the legs 2 may be extended into tripod form to sustain the stand firmly.
Telcscoped into the upper end of the upright 1 is an expandable and contractable music holder of customary construction and therefore requiring no special description. As so far described, the music stand need not differ from commercial forms of music stands being of the type in common use and adapted to carry sheets of music or scores, such as are used by bands or orchestras, in holding the music for the individual players.
The legs 2 areprovided with braces 4, by means of which the legs may be extended or contracted and held in position. When the legs 2 are extended there is considerable distance between the upper ends of the braces l and the upper end ofthe stem 1. This leaves room enough for the attachment of the invention to the stem 1, such attachment being indicated at B in the drawing. The attachchannel members separately connected by pivots 6 to bars 7 and '7 respectively and these bars are each individually connected by pivots 8 to strips 9, 10 respectively, the two strips 9 and 10 forming a rectangular frame with the adjacent ends of the strips9 and 10 connected together by a pivot 11 to other strips 12 and 13 extending to the channel members 5 to which they are connected by other pivots 14.. The channels 5 have longitudinal flanges 15 whereby thechannel members 5 may be spread into a single trough constituting the bottom portion of the holder and these channel members 5 may be turned on the pivots 6 into face to face relation and thereby folded into small compass. The strips 9 and 10 coact to provide an elongated rectangular frame of about the same spread as the two members 5 together. The various pivots 6,8, 11 and 1 1 form flexible junction members permitting the ready folding and extension of the holder with the ease of folding and extension depending upon the tightness of the various pivots which may be regulated as desired.
At the opposite ends of the bar 7*, there are formed pintle eyes 16 traversed by a pintle or pin 17 in turn traversing one end of a spring clip 18, with the ends of the 7 clip spread apart away from the pin and constructed in an elastic manner so as to be readily snappedv over the stem 1 of the music stand with sufiicient grip thereonto hold the container to the stand and yet permit its ready removal from the stand.
The. frame. made up of the strips 9 and 10, 1.2 and 13 and the channels 5 with their flanges 15 constitute a holder of suitable size to contain numerous music scores in accessible position and; from which container the" scores may be readily chosen and removed. The extra music is thereby held in an out-of-the-way position, from which position the scores may be readily removed asneeded and into which holder they may be replaced after use. There is no liability of loss of the scores by reason of wind blowing them or the scores being knocked from the stand Where the additional sup-ply of sooresis stored.
The clips 18 are stitlly hinged to the bar 7 with the hinge moving with sufficient friction tohold the storage frame from accidental movement but still the hinge is sufficiently flexible topermit folding of the clip flat against the bar 7* for storage purposes.
What is claimed is 1. A folding music holder for attachment to and removal from a music stand, comprising channel members at-the bottom, spaced upright bars separably and pivotally con mating the channelmembers at their meet ing ends, horizontal strips forming areotangular frame at the top and pivoted to each other, said strips being pivot-ally connected to said bars, and vertical strips pivotally connecting the horizontal strips to said channelmembers at their outer ends.
2. A folding music holder comprising a 'pair of. horizontally disposed channel memtheir upper ends and to the outer ends of the channel members at their lower ends, and attaching clips connected to one of the upright bars for attaching the holder to the upright stem or post of the music stand.
3. In combination with a music stand, a
foldable music holder for attachment to and removal from the music stand, said holder having a substantially rectangular frame at,
the top, and a channel member at the bot tom, said frame and said channel member 7 being connected together by pivoted strips or bars, and pivoted clips, carried by the holder to engage over the upright stem or i post of the music stand.
In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as my own,'I have hereto afiixedmy signature. CHARLES IRVING FULLER.
