13 Claims.
An object of this invention is to produce a photographic sound-on-film recording device which is free from frequency limitations.
Another object of this invention is to provide a recording device which is free from mechanical failure in the case of overload.
A further object of the invention resides in the production of a recording device which may ,be regulated and operated simply and directly.
Still another object of the invention lies in the 5 production of a recording device of extreme simplicity and economy.
With these and numerous other objects in view, my invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination andfarrangement of 20 parts as will be hereinafter referred to and more particularly pointed out in the specification and claims.
In the drawing forming a part of this application:
25 Figure 1 is a central vertical longitudinal sectional view of an adaptation of the device;
Figure 2 is a transverse vertical section taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows;
30 Figure 3 is a similar view as seen on line 3--3 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows; and
Figure 4 is a schematic diagram showing the relations of the device to associated amplification 35 apparatus.
In recording sound on film by mechanical light valve means, it is found that the mechanical inertia present in the various systems prohibits faithful recording over the entire audible range.
40 In addition, great care must be exercised in the supervision, adjustment, and control of such systems due to the extremely small physical tolerances which are allowable and due to the destructive effect of overload. The present invention 45 offers a device which is practically inertialess and which is free from the dangers of overload and the necessity for fine supervision and control.
The piezo-electric characteristics of certain crystals, as, for instance, Rochelle salt, are well 50 known. By virtue of this property electrical energy may be converted into mechanical energy, that is, electrification of such a free crystal, causes it to vibrate at a constant frequency depending on its physical and molecular dimensions.
55 The role which this phenomenon plays in monitoring the wave lengths of radio broadcast trans mitters is well known.
Consider a crystal cut in the form of a rectangular slab having its major faces perpendicular to the electric or a axis and its major 5 peripheral edges at a. forty-five degree angle to its b and "c" axes. If, now, the major faces are coated with an electrically conductive foil and alternating potential .applied thereto, the crystal will expand and contract in the direc- 10 tions of the b and c axes, provided one edge of the crystal slab is rigidly clamped. Furthermore, this extension and compression occurs in perfect synchronism with the applied potential.
The present invention utilizes such a crystal as the moving element in a light valve for phoicigraphically recording sound on motion picture m. In the accompanying drawing which is for illustrative purposes only and therefore not drawn to any particular scale, I have shown a base plate designated by the numeral l, carrying the fixedly mounted element 2 terminating in a beveled knife edge 3, adapted to coact with the knife edge 4, provided at the lower edge 4 of the pulsating crystal 5. I have also shown a chamber 6, containing an appropriate source of light I adapted to coact with a condenser 8. The numeral 9 designates the objective, and at III I have shown a strip of conventional film, on the sound groove of which the light pulsations are to be impressed. Rising from the base I is a standard I I and bolted to the upper end thereof isthe bridge member l2, carrying the manual adjusting screw l3. This manual adjusting screw [3 is adapted to enter the recess I 4 in the floating member l3a and is provided with a reduced portion l5 securely held by the screws l6. Screwed to the lower part of the member Ila, as shown at H, is a block l8 carrying a pair of clamping bolts l9, and provided at its interior with .a pocket 20 adapted to i receive a crystal 5.
In electrical relation with the faces of the crystal 5 are the electrodes 2|, and 22 denotes wires leading to the binding posts 23 from which in turn are taken off the two wires 24, leading to the amplifying means. The lower part of the member I2 is provided with laterally inwardly extending feet 25 carrying the adjusting screws 26 provided at their upper ends with cups 21 adapted to receive spiral springs 28, located within the pockets 2!. To appropriately confine the floating member l3a, the inwardly extending ledges or feet 25 are provided with upwardly extending walls 30 confining the movable element I311. It will thus be seen that I haye provided means to securely clamp one edge of the crystal and the operator has at his disposal mechanical means to accurately adjust the widths of the gap formed between the lower edge of the crystal 4 and its stationary coacting member 3.
At 3| I have shown a pair of tubes arranged in push-pull fashion and at 32 I have shown an output transformer, the primary 3! of which is ing from the spirit of the inventiomand that I do not intend any limitation to my invention except as set forth in the appended claims.
