INDUCTANCE-COIL MOUNTING.

Application filed January 19, 1924. Serial No. 687,247.

This invention relates to a new and improved inductance coil mounting for use in radio receiving systems. a

It is the object of this invention, among other things, to provide an inductance coil mounting that will permit of the ready change of the relative position of the coils and to provide a detachable mounting therefor that will be effective in operation, yet simple in its design and structure and produced at the minimum cost.

To these, and other ends, our invention consists in the inductance coil mounting, having certain details of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the claims.

Referring to the drawings, in which like numerals of reference designate like parts in the several figures,

Figure 1 is a plan view of our improved device showing the honeycomb coil in various relative positions;

Figure 2 is an end view thereof with some of the parts in section, upon line 2-2 of Figure 1;

Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view of a portion thereof, taken generally upon line 3-3 of Figure 2; and

Figure 4 is an elevation of one of the standards.

In the practice of this invention we provide a base plate 10, which is usually made of hard rubber or like material, and attached thereto are three sets of standards arranged in pairs, each of the standards 11 having a foot portion 12, through which rojects a screw 13 having nuts 14 thereon f or permanently and rigidly securing the same to the base plate. The upper end of each of the standards is provided with an outwardly turned lip 15, through which is a slot 16 that terminates at its inner end in the circular opening 17.

The honeycomb coils are of the usual and conventional form and are designated 18, being connected with a block 19 by a strap 20 or the like. Projecting radially from each of the blocks 19 are the studs 21. and 22, to which the Wires 23 and 24 of the coil are connected by means'of the nuts 25. The coils 18, blocks 19, and the method of securing one to the other constitutes no part of our present invention.

The nuts 25, provided with the globular outer ends 26, are new, and when positioned each is within one opening 17 in the standards 11. The slots 16 facilitate this mounting, and as arranged, each standard is forced outwardly a sufficient distance to perunit the nuts to pass therebetween and aftcrwards spring inwardly and apply a slight pressure thereon, thus holding the block, and the coil connected therewith, under a slight pressure sufiicient to prevent an accidental movement relatively to the standard.

A sleeve 27, threaded on the stud 21, having a knurled head 28 provides convenient means for manually rotating the coil about the axis of the studs 21 and 22.

There are minor changes and alterations that may be made within our invention, aside from those herein suggested, and we would therefore have it understood that we do not limit ourselves to the exact construction herein shown and described, but claim all that falls fairly within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Having described our invention, what We claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. In mechanism of the character described; a pair of standards secured at their base and having a limited spring movement in relation to each other at their outer ends with an opening through each of the standards and a slot of less width leadin therefrom to the outer end thereof; a coi block; studs or the like in the coil block independent of each other and projecting laterally from the coil block; a globular member 011 each of the studs outside of the coil block, each being rotatably mounted in the opening in one of the standards, the parts and associated elements being assembled with said standards by said globular members and studs passing through the said slots; and means connected with one of said studs upon that side of one of the standards opposite to the coil block, for manually rotating the coil block relatively to the standard.

2. In mechanism of the character described; a pair of standards secured at their base and having a limited spring movement in relation to each other at their outer ends, each standard having an opening therethrough at the inner end of a slot extending to the outer end of the standard; and a coil block having nuts thereon with globular outer ends which force the standards apart, when the coil block is being assembled with the standards and travel in the said slots until they register With the said openings, at which time the tension upon the standards is released and they return to their former position and rotatably support the coil block, and means connected 10 with the coil block upon that side of the standard opposite to the coil block for manually rotating the coil block relatively to the standard.

In testimony whereof we have hereunto 15 aflixed our signatures.

CHARLES P. SlVICK. CHARLES G. LOYOT.
