Definitions

  • This invention relates particularly to electromagnetic reproducers of the type disclosed in co-pending patent application, Serial #209,500.
  • Special objects in this case are to provide a more sensitive action, to obtaingreater energy; to reproduce faithfully without distortion or blast; to construct the apparatus in such a form that the parts may be assembled l0 and properly adjusted without bein subjected to magnetic or other possible dlsturbing iniiuences and in genera-l, to provide a more practical and eiicient form of apparatus than has heretofore been attained.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of the reproducer or pick-up in cooperative relation with a phonograph record, the case of the device appearing in section.
  • Figure 2 is a front view of the device removed from its case.
  • Figure 3- is a bottom view of the device.
  • v Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional View as on substantially the plane of line 4 4 of Figure 1.
  • the magnetic system of the unit comprises a short but relatively powerful permanent horse-shoe magnet 5 having laminated pole ieces 6 secured to the legs of the same and ormed with polar projections 7 approached to provide a magnetic gap at 8. These polar projections are located up near the arch of the magnet and at their lower ends the pole pieces are shown formed with lesser projections 9 approaching each other across the space between the ends of the ma et.
  • pole pieces 6 are secured 1n properly spaced relation by means of avbridge iece 10 to which the lower projections '9 o the pole pieces are secured by means of screws 11 extending through projections 9 into screw seats 12 shown formed as integral screw bushings on said bridge piece.
  • the coil 13 shown centered in position thereon between the up'per and lower arms 7, 9, of the pole pieces.
  • This coil has terminals 14 on an lnsulating base strip 15 secured by nuts 16 at the back of the magnet, said terminals having the cord conductors 17 connected therewith.
  • a magnetic reedp or arma.- ture 18 carried by an upstanding arm 19 projecting freely up through the center of the coil.
  • This arm is shown as of cylindrical form so as to lit closely but without contact in the bore of the coil and is further shown as an integral-angularly projecting upward extension on the inner end of a squared bearing portion 20.
  • this s uared bearing portion carries ⁇ a downwar y di rected angularly extending needle holder 21 provided with a clamp screw 22 and preferably of a size and shape to accommodate various styles of needles such as the usual steel needles or liber needles 23, etc.
  • the squared base or shank portion 20 of the reed is supported and resiliently heldin a tubular sleeve 24 of rubber or other elastic material clamped in an inverted V-groove 25 provided in the outstanding flange or shelf 26 of the bridge piece by a V-trough clamp plate 27 secured to the shelf of the bracket by small screw bolts 28.
  • the inner end of the clam plate 27 seats in a V slot 29 in the back of t e bracket or bridge piece 10, which .seat as shown in Figure 4 is of wider angle than the V clamp so that said V clamp may have arocking motion therein for the purpose of tilting the squared shank one way or the other to center the. end of the reed between the pole tips.
  • clamp screws 28 may be set u together to compress the elastic sleeve an thus firmly secure the reed in. lace and may be adjusted one independent y of the other to rock the reed s hghtly one way or ⁇ the other and hence bring 1t lnto centered relation in the magnetic gap.
  • l .j The supporting flange26 1s lllustrated m Figure 2 as depressed at 30 on opposlte sldes of the inverted V seat therein to provide recessed seats for the nuts 3l on the upper ends of the clamp screws 28.
  • This pole piece unit as it may be termed, comprising the pole pieces, coil and reed all secured together in properly adjusted relation, is attached to the permanent magnetin the unitary form described, by means of two screws 32 extending through the bracket lO, the lower end portions of the laminated pole pieces and the arms of the U magnet, the nuts 16 before referred to being engaged on the projecting rear ends of these screws.
  • These same screws are snown utilized in the present illustration for securing the casing 33 in place, cap nuts 34 engaged on the extended ends of said screws serving this latter purpose.
  • the casing 33 is indicated in Figure l as having a flexible strap or loop 35 at one side of the same which can be contracted by a thumb screw 36 to grip the unit on the end of a phonograph tone arm so that the needle will properly cooperate with the record shown at 37 carried by the usual turn table 88.
  • the angular or squared shank of the reed clamp diagonally in the elastic sleeve provides in effect a resilient pivot having an axis substantially at a right angle to the lateral traverse of the needle and the movementof the reed between the pole tips.
  • the leverage of the needle and of the reed are therefore both effective in the translation of inechanical vibrations from the record to electrical oscillations in the coil.
  • the mechanical effect-s of the needle may be increased or decreased as desired.
  • the bracket is shown in Figures l and 2 as having an inturned flange 39 at its lower edge forming a gage or stop for the lower ends of the pole pieces and serving also as a rib for strengthening and reinforcing the bracket.
  • the upstanding arm portion of the same is preferably hollowed, by drilling or otherwise, as indicated atlQ, to make it as light as possible and the upper end of this liollowed portion is then flattened as indicated in the drawing, to provide a maximum area exposed to the pole pieces.
  • a light, rigid reed is thereby provided and this reed has maximum areas opposed and exposed to the pole pieces of the magnet. Consequently, the action is most sensitive.
  • An electromagnetic pick-up device comprising a shank having angularly projecting elements at opposite ends of the same, one of said elements providing a magnetic reed and the other a needle holding clamp, a magnet system having a magnetic gap in which the free end of said reed element oseillates, a coil associated with and forming part of said magnet system, and a continuously extending clamp adjustably holding the intermediate portion of said shank between the magnetic reed at one end and the needle clamp at the opposite end of the same.
