George W. Leyen, Denver, 0010. Application January 24, 1936, Serial .No. 0,698
2 Claims.
The invention relates to a portable holder and more especially to a radio program holder.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a holder of this character, wherein a program to be rendered through radio broadcasting stations may be placed in a convenient position for a listener-in and which will facilitate the fastening of the display strip containing the programs as the numbers thereon are rendered.
10 Another object of the invention is the provision of a holder of this character, wherein the construction thereof is of simple form and a strip bearing radio programs may be conveniently displayed and under adjustment of such strip a 15 particular program may be brought to view.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a holder of this character, which is simple in its makeup, neat in appearance, thoroughly reliable and efficient in its operation, the program 20 strip being readily and easily manipulated and a selected program in full view, strong, durable, and
inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which discloses the; preferred embodiment of the invention and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the holder constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a side view thereof the same being partly broken away.
35 Figure 3 is a rear elevation.
Figure 4 is a sectional view on the line 4-4 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 5 is a sectional view on the line 55 of Figure 2 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 6 is a sectional view on the line 6-6 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the holder comprises a body H! which may be made from any suitable material, having a flared base H, the body being upwardly tapered and is of hollow formation closed at the upper smaller end and 50 open at the bottom larger end. The open larger end of the body is constructed to accommodate a spool or reel 12 on which is manually wound a strip 13 carrying indicia making up a radio program or programs for display. The spool or reel I2 is releasably held engaged with spring tension trunnions 14, these being slidably fitted in barrels 15 built within opposite ends of the body and carry the springs l6 which releasably force the trunnions 12 into engagement with the spool or reel and in this manner the strip roll is sup- 5 ported within the body.
The body I 0 at its front I! has formed therein next to the open bottom the slot l8 through which is adapted to be trained the strip I3 so that it will traverse the outer flat face of the 10 said front 11 and is trained over a rounded top 59 provided at the upper smaller end of said body and thence trained downwardly at the rear of the body and loosely engaged in a retaining loop 20 provided at the back of the said body. 15 The free end of the strip l3 can be manually gripped for the feeding of the said strip to alter the display of a radio program matter present on the outer face of the strip at the front of the body.
Adapted to be located at the front I1 of the body It is a window sash 2| having a transparent panel 22 through which is rendered visible the indicia on the slip I 3 as trained over the front I! of the body I0. This sash 2| carries a head fiange 23 which overhangs the rounded top l9 and is provided with sockets 24 for accommodating dowel pins 25 made fast in the rounded top 19 while the bottom end of this sash 2| carries the dowel pins 26 releasably en- 30 gaged in suitable sockets as provided in the base I I of the body l0 and in this manner the sash is detachably secured in place. The strip 13 travels over the front l1 between it and the sash 2|.
Loosely engaged with the trunnions M are the arms 21 of a tensioning bail 28 which plays upon the roll of the strip [3 for frictionally holding the same but allowing the feed of the strip on manual manipulation thereof for the chang- 0 ing of the displayed program appearing through the panel 22 in the sash 2| of the device. I It is intended that the radio programs for an entire week which are generally published in newspapers in strip order may be clipped from the newspaper and rolled upon the spool or reel l2 and such strip move successively as the programs are completed so as to bring succeeding numbers and programs into view, these being made visible through the transparent panel 22 in the sash 2| at the front of the body. The strip I3 can be readily detached from the spool or reel for substituting another strip in its place.
The radio programs to be used in the holder constituting the present invention is a specially prepared strip now called The Weekly Strip of the Air and is issued weekly. This program will be issued in spool form and will show N. B. C., C. B. S. and World B. C. programs and such programs will vary according to the localities they will be issued in. For instance: The type program issued in El Paso will show N. B. 0., C. B. S. and World B. C. programs as well as interesting numbers from Dallas, San Antonio, etc. Los Angeles programs would take in a section covering San Diego to the south and San Francisco to the north.
What is claimed is:
l. A device of the character described comprising a body of tapered formation and having a slot in its front close to the bottom thereof, a rolled strip supported in the body and trained through the slot to traverse the front of said body and over the top of the latter, a transparent paneled sash fitting over the front of the body for rendering visible said strip, tensioning means frictionally engaging the rolled strip within the body and a head extension on the sash to overhang the top of the body and guiding the strip rearwardly of the latter.
2. A device of the character described comprising a body of tapered formation and having a slot in its front close to the bottom thereof, a rolled strip supported in the body and trained through the slot to traverse the front of said body and over the top of the latter, a transparent paneled sash fitting over the front of the body for rendering visible said strip, tensioning means frictionally engaging the rolled strip within the body, a head extension on the sash to overhang the top of the body and guiding the strip rearwardly of the latter and a loop at the back: of the body for receiving the free end of the strip.
