veniently be embodied in practice.
In the drawings:

Fig. 8 is a side view of the recording head and the swinging arm upon which it is supported.
Fig. 9 is a side view of the playback head. and. its swinging arm. Referring now to the drawings in which like referencev numerals denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral H) in.-; dicates a U-shaped head-supporting -bridge which is. secured tothe opposite sides of-a chassis plate- 35 located in, the upper part of a cabinet Qbr: means of two pairs of screws llla, Illa.
Mounted: upon the bridge I i1 is a- U-shaped clamping cam H for holding a recording head RH in raised position above a record R. Asian i'l'ar: U-shaped clamping cam l-la is furnished; for holding the playback head PBH inraisedposi tion. The depending arms of the cams It, and
tluvare. pivoted on, a common horizontal central. pin Ho and; a pairoiouter horizontal p1ns;,l;l.c lid, respectively. which pins are mounted central. dependin lu He. and, the outer pot.- tions of said bridge: I, respectively; The r c rd. ing head clamping; cam l t has abellicrank handle that its right hand endprovided, with a down wardly. ofiset. horizontal rear leg t3. which: nee-ted: bya downwardly inolmed strap, L4 and; shoulder screws [5, 1.6- to a: selector switch lovers;
3 block l8, said strap l4 passing through a slot 36 in the chassis plate.
The strap [4 has a slot I! at its lower end for loosely embracing the screw I6 which extends from the side of the selector switch block l8, the latter also having a rearwardly-extending horizontal shaft l9 connected with a selector switch (not shown).. The playbackhead cam Ila is also provided with a forwardly-extending handle l2a (see Figs. 1 and 6).
In order to restore the turntable to normal full speed whenever the recording head RH is lowered upon the record, provision is made of an inclined laterally-extending stud 28 connected to the intermediate portion of the strap I4, said stud being adapted to engage a rearwardly inclined upwardly-extending link 2| which isadjustably secured by means of a pair of screws 22, 23 to a channel-shaped bracket 25. The screw 22 serves as a pivot for the link 2|, while the screw 23 is located in an arcuate slot 24 formed at the lower end of the adjustable link 2 I Below the bracket 25 provision is also made of a horizontal plate 26 which is connected by a screw 21 to the bracket 25 and forms a bearing for a stud shaft 28 which projects downwardly therethrough. As will be seen in Fig. 3, the bracket 25 is so disposed as to support the link 2| in laterally offset relationship to the axis of the stud shaft 28.
' The stud shaft 28 is surrounded at its upper portion by a vertical bushing 29 which is journaled in a flat block 30 underlying the plate 26. The block 30 is attached rigidly, by means not shown, to a horizontal mounting plate 3|.
In order to adjust the speed of the turntable T during playback, provision is made of an L-' shaped lever 32, the upper vertical end 33 of which passes through an arcuate slot 34 in the forward part of the chassis plate 35. The lever 32 is secured at the rear end to the top of the bracket 25.
The speed of the motor is controlled by a swinging magnet assembly 31 which is secured to the stud shaft 28 by means of a pair of horizontal setscrews 38, 39, said magnet assembly be ng held upon said shaft 28 by an elastic fiber'stop nut 40 located on the lower end thereof. The magnet assembly 31 has an air gap 4| which is adapted to embrace a magnetic brake disk '42 which is fastened to a turntable motor shaft 43 by means of a set screw as. a
It will be understood that by shifting the vertical end 33 of the speed control lever 32 within its slot 34-, the magnet assembly 3i will be moved in an are around the stud shaft 28 so that the air gap 4| will be either partially over, completely over, or outside the perimeter of the non-magnetic brake disk 42. By means of this construction'the magnetic flux which passes through the gap 4| will be varied to increase or decrease the speed of the turntable T mounted on the motor shaft 43 in accordance with the area of the disk 42' which is actually embraced by said gap.
The volumeof the playback'wlll be automatically maintained at a uniform level by means of a; movable resistor arm 45 located in a circular casing 45cc and mounted ona depending threa'd ed shaft 46 which is located within an angle bracket 41 secured to said shaft 46 by a pair of nuts 48, 49 situated above and below said bracket 41 respectively. The shaft 46 has an unthreaded reduced lower section 55 secured as by a set screw to a collar member 52 resting upon the adaptor plate 26. The vertical leg of the angle bracket 41 is secured to the bushing block 38 by means of a pair of horizontal screws 53, 54.
The arm 45 is mounted to swing over an arouate resistance 45a connected at its ends to wires 45b, 450 leading to the output of a preamplifier P. The wire 45b and the arm 45 are connected to the input of a main amplifier A. By means of this construction it will be seen that as the speed control lever 32 is swung about the stud shaft 28 to reduce the speed of the turntable T during playback the volume of the amplifier A will be increased automatically by the resistor arm 45.
The recording and playback heads RH and PBH are pivotally mounted upon recording and playback arms 55 and 55, respectively, and have pivoted lifting handles 51, 58, respectively, on their forward ends. The handles 51, 58 have resilient and depending curved rear ends 59, 68 which'are adapted to slidably engage the heads RH and PBH respectively.
Operation When the cam handle I2 is swung upwardly,
the U-shaped cam I I will clamp the lifting handle 51 against the bridge Ill so that the recording head RH will be held and locked in raised position. Similarly, when the handle in is moved upwardly, the playback head PBI-I will be clamped in raised position.
It will be understood that the operation of lifting the handle l2 will swing the selector switch block 13 about its shaft is and place the apparatus in condition for playback. When the han-' dle I 2 is lowered again, the selector switch will be reversed to place the apparatus in condition cording head is in raised position, the speed control lever 32 may be moved backwardly to cause the turntable to rotate at any lower playback speed without releasing the recording head clamping cam handle 12 from its raised position.
In case it is desired to adjust the position ofthe strap M to control the maximum turntable speed at which the apparatus may be preset, this,
may be accomplished by loosening the screws 22, 23 and swinging the link 2| to the desired angular setting after which the screws will again be tightened.
One advantage of the present invention is that both the recording head and the reproducing head of the dictating machine may selectively be moved to and held in any desired position upon the record R merely by manipulating the handles 51, 58 and I2, l2a and without,
touching the recording or playback heads themselves in any manner.
Another advantage of the present invention is that playback speeds as low as 2 /512,. P. may be employed satisfactorily for playing back high speed code signals.
A further advantage is that the swinging of the U-shaped smooth-surfaced clamping cams will in no way injure the recording or playback heads or their handles.
While there has been disclosed in this specification one form in which this invention maybe 5 embodied, it is to be understood that this form is shown for the purpose of illustration only, and that the invention is not to be limited to the specific disclosure but may be modified and embodied in various other forms without departing from its spirit. In short, the invention includes all the modifications and embodiments coming within the scope of the following claims.
