2 Claims. (Cl. 73-151) The present invention relates to new and useful improvements in casings particularly for a weighing machine of the type constituting the subject matter of my co-pending application of even date which includes a coin controlled electric motor, a mandrel driven thereby, a substantially cylindrical record removably mounted on said mandrel, etc. It is the primary object of thepresent invention to provide a casing embodying a novel construction and arrangement whereby the cylindrical sound record may be expeditiously removed from the mandrel and replaced when desired and access may be conveniently had to the other mechanism constituting the head of the weighing machine.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a head casingof the aforementioned character for weighing machines which will be comparatively simple in construction, strong, durable, compact, attractive in appearance and which may be produced at low cost.
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein:-
Figure 1 is a view in end elevation of a casing constructed in accordance with this invention.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on the line 2 2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is an end elevational view, showing the cover section swung to open position with one of the end walls removed.
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the stationary lower section.
Referring now to the drawings in detail and Figure 2 thereof in particular, it will be seen that the reference numeral I designates generally the head of a weighing machine of the sound reproducing type, the mechanism including an electric motor 2 mounted on a suitable stand 3, a mandrel 4 driven by said motor 2, a substantially cylindrical sound record 5 removably mounted on the mandrel 4, etc.
The embodiment of the present invention which has been illustrated comprises a cylinder which is designated .generally by the reference numeral 6, said cylinder including a stationary lower section 'I and a swinging upper or cover section 8 which is hingedly connected, as at 9, to said lower stationary section 1. A suitable lock I0 is provi-ded for securing the hinged cover Section 8 in closed position.
The lower section I of the cylinder 6 is fixed on the upper end of a tubular post or column II (see Figure 2) and communicates therewith through an opening I2 formed in the bottom of said section 1. The usual steelyard rod I3 extends upwardly from the platform of the machine (not shown) through the tubular column II and opening I 2 to the head mechanism I.
Adjacent its ends, the lower section 'l of the cylinder 6 has formed therein circumferential grooves or channels I4 for the reception of flanges I5 on the peripheries of the removable end walls I6. As illustrated to advantage in Figures 2 and 4 of the drawings, the flanges I5 are spaced inwardly from the outer faces of the removable end walls I6 and it will also be noted that said outer faces of the end walls are flush with the ends of the lower section 1.
With the hinged cover section 8 locked in closed position, the integral end walls I'I thereof rest on the upper edges of the lower end walls I6, thus positively securing said lower end walls in position. However, should it be desired to remove the sound record 5 from the mandrel 4, it is only necessary to unlock and open the hinged cover section 8 of the cylinder 6 and then remove the adjacent end wall I6, as suggested in Figure 3 of the drawings, after which said sound record 5 may be conveniently removed endwise from the mandrel. Also, by swinging the cover section 8 to open position and removing either or both of the end walls I6 access may readily be had to any part of the head mechanism I. The reference numeral I8 designates an article supporting hook on one end of the cover section 8. Lips or flanges I9 rise from the front and rear of the lower section 'I for engagement in the hinged cover section 8 when the latter is in closed position.
It is believed that the many advantages of a casing constructed in accordance with the present invention will be readily understood and although a preferred embodiment of the device is as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction and in the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:-
1. A casing comprising a cylinder including a stationary lower substantially semi-cylindrical section having internal grooves in its end portions, end walls removably mounted in said lower section, flanges on said end walls engaged in the grooves, and a complementary cover section hingedly mounted on said lower section and engageable on the end Walls when in closed position for retaining said end walls in position.
2. A casing of the class described comprising a cylinder including a stationary lower substantially semi-cylindrical section, said lower section having circumferentially extending internal grooves in its end portions, removable end Walls mounted in said lower section and including marginal flanges engaged in the grooves, and a complementary cover section hngedly mounted on said lower section, said cover section comprising integral end walls engageable on the upper edges of the removable end walls for positively securing the latter in position when said cover section is closed.
