COMBINED MUSIC RACK AND CANE Filed Dec. 18, 1925 Jose v [azozzreZ/e wVZa/vk Sza ermer am Wm AIIORNEY Patented Dec. 23, 1930 umren STATES JOSEPH LAroURELL'E AND FRANK s'rnvnn vrnn, or cENrUnIA, WISCONSIN COMBINED MUSIC BACK AND CANE Application filed December 18, 1925. Serial No. 76,290.
The object of this invention is to provide an article which when folded may readily be carried in the hand, as a cane,,the elements being so mounted within the hollow staff, or connected therewith, that the whole device may be set up as a music rack.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of elements described, illustrated and claimed, it being understood that modifications may be made within the scope of "the claims without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings forming part of this application.
Figure 1 shows the device in elevation,
when set up as a rack.
Figure 2 shows the device folded, several of the elements being collapsed within the hollow staff.
Figure 3 is a detail view in perspective showing a portion of a slotted tubular elementwhich directly. mounts the rack, and which is movable vertically within the hollow staff,
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view in vertical section, and in the plane indicated at 44 in Figure 1; I
Figure 5 is a horizontal section, on line 5-5 of Figure 4. I
Figure 6 is a section ure 1.
i The hollow staff, forming the major portion of the cane, is designated 10, this ele ment being reversed end for end in Figures 1 and 2. When used as a cane, the end 10 is closed by means of a ferrule or tip designated 11 and having pin and bayonet slot connection at 12 with element 10.
The-cane includes an end member or handle 13 mounted within enlarged portion 14 of the tubular element 15.
When the cane is reversed to form the standard of a music rack, element 13 assumes the position of Figures 1 and 4, and resting on saidv element 13 is a vertically slotted member or sleeve 16 held between retaining means 16 and 16". This member 16 provides for the mounting of legs 17, which di- 59 verge in a downward direction and are held on line 6-6 of Fig- .in conjunction with the flared portion 14.
secured to a split tube 35, the latter being between, element 13 andthe edge portionszof element'15 and especially the enlarged portion 14 thereof. 7 y I In order to firmly connect element 13 with the staff, I provide the screw 20' which is 55 threaded into aspider like device, designated 21, andshown in cross section in Figure 5, this device being secured to element 10 by means of screws22. V V
The legs 17 are pivoted at 17' and are f0ld-. able upwardly in the radial slots 16, in which position the tripod structure may be .completely concealed within tubular staff 10, only the element 13 projecting,'for useas a handle,
The rack includes the central vertical por-f tion30, reinforced atthe lower end by an element 31 including ears132 having pivotal connection at 33 with stem 34 formed on or 7 0 slidablelwithjin the tubularstaif 10, and the slot 3613f the tubecooperating with a lug or the like 37 projecting inwardly from the wall of tube 10. The lower end of split tube may be slotted at 35 forming an element 38 which provides additional frictional contact with the bore of element 10, and permits of prompt adjustment, vertically. y
The rack designed especially for holding music either in book form, or in sheet form, includes the upper elements 40 and 41 pivoted at 42 and 43 to element 30, and pivoted at 44 and 45 to'the side bars 46 and 47 The lower ends of bars 46 and 47 are pivoted at 48 and 49 to lower transverse bars 50 and 51, and these elements last named are pivoted, as at '52 to the lower end of'vertical centralbar 30.
The elements of the rack are collapsable at the several pivotal points, and the rack structure when collapsed, is slidable into the bore of the staff 10, when the split tube 35, connected with the rack, is thrust into the tube. The upper end 10, as the device appears in Figure 1, becomes the lower end in Figure 2, and this end is closed by tip 11 having the bayonet slot therein, as before mentioned, this slot cooperating with a pin or lug in the wall of portion 10.
It may be added that when the tripod is collapsed and housed in the staff, the legs pass through the spider 21 and are thereby guided, and prevented from being forced out of correct position.
What is claimed is:
In a device of the class described, a tubular stall, an element fixed therein, a tripod structure comprising a head and sleeve and legs pivoted to the sleeve, said legs being movable from collapsed position, into diverging relation with reference to each other and so retained between the head and the end of the tubular staff, and means for detachably connecting the head and sleeve with the fixed element in the staff, said means extending longitudinally of the staff and providing an adjustable connection.
In testimony whereof we aiiix our signatures.
