UNITED STATES l NORBERTO GUTIERREZ, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
ORCHESTRA SOUND CABINET.
Application led February 26, 1921.
T0 all lwhom `it may concern:
Be it known that I, NORBERTO GUTIERREZ, a citizen of the Re ublic of Mexico, residing in the city of t. Louis, and State of Missouri, have invented new and useful Improvements in Orchestra Sound Cabinets, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention pertains to sound-cabinets for musical instruments. It is especially designed for adding resonance and mellowness to the tones of phonograph instruments located therein, and for eliminating any harshness of sound that might otherwise exist. One instrument, or several synchronized phonographs may be housed within this cabinet, and played singly or in unison; or the cabinet may be built large enough to house a regular orchestra of many pieces.
v[n the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the preferred form of construction of the cabinet, a portion of the wall and top being broken away to show the method of construction.
Figure 2 is atop plan View.
Figure 3 is a horizontal section on the line A-B in Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a detail showing how the panels are hinged to the posts and uprights;
Figure 5 is a vertical sect-ion through the structure. showing the laminated form of the outer walls.
The invention consists in building a cabinet 1, large enough in diameter and height to entirely enclose the phonographs or other instruments designed to be housed therein. The preferred form of this cabinet is multisided. as shown in the drawings, with sides for instance. corresponding to the number of phonographs to be located therein; but the cabinet may be made circular, or square or triangular, and of coursemay be of any ornan'iental design desired.
ln building the cabinet multi-sided as shown. a. suitable base 15 is provided. cut to the required' peripheral form. Posts 2. are mounted at the corners of this base, and sills at the tops of the posts. Panels 4 are then hinged to the posts i2, thus affording an easy access to the interior of the cabinet.
Serial No. 448,192.
Upon the dado so formed is mounted an upper tone chamber 5, likewise of panel formation. For this purpose uprights 6 are extended above the sills 3, and top sills 7 are mounted on these uprights. Between these uprights 6 are hinged, or otherwise mounted, double walled panels 8, embodying the outer walls 9 of laminated wood, or other suitable structure. and the inner sound or resonance boards 10, which are made of spruce or other suitable material` and spaced from the outer walls S), so as to leave the intervening tone wells 11. These tone wells 11 have sound Openings 12 leading thereinto through the sound boards 10'. The cabinet is finally provided with a reverberating top 13 made also of laminated wood and constructed to enhance sound waves. and this top 13 is spaced from` the body of the cabinet by short bars 14.
lt is Obvious that the precise form of construction may be varied in many ways without departing from the spirit of my invention. and while I have herein pointed out a particular form of construction, it is understood same may be varied in minor details, not departing from the spirit of my invention as defined in the appended claims.
lv claim:
1. An orchestra sound cabinet comprising double wall panels. the walls being spaced apart to form tone wells. the outer walls being imperforatc and the inncr walls being provided wit-h openings communicating with the interior of the cabinet. and means for supporting said panels to form the sides of the cabinet.
2. An orchestra sound cabinet provided with inner and outer walls forming tone wells, the inner walls heilig providcd with openings communicating with the interior of the cabinet.
3. An orchestra sound cabinet comprising a base, a double wall superstructure on the base partitioned into tone wells and having apertures leading through the inner walls into the tone wells.
