7 Claims.
Thisv invention relates to radio receiving and recording playing apparatus and more particularly to a combination radio receiver-record player and a cabinet therefor.
An object is to provide improved radio receiving and record playing apparatus.
A further object is to provide an improved radio and record playing combination.
A still further object is to provide an improved combination radio receiver-record player combination and cabinet therefor.
A more specific object is to provide an improved combination of radio receiving-record playing apparatus and a cabinet in which the apparatus is enclosed wherein a single door or closure serves to move the record playing apparatus into and out of the cabinet and also provides access to the controls of the radio receiving apparatus when the record playing apparatus is in its normal position within the cabinet.
These and other objects are effected by our invention as will be apparent from the following description and claims taken in connection with the accompanying drawings forming a part of this application, in which:
Figure l is a partial side elevation, with parts of the cabinet broken away, of a radio receiving and record playing combination embodying our invention;

Fig. 6 is a partial front perspective view, similar to Fig. 5, with the record playing apparatus partially out of the cabinet; and
Fig. 7 is a sectional view of a detail.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, the reference character Hi indicates a cabinet which is adapted to house a radio receiving set [I and a record player 12. Like reference characters indicate like parts in the various figures of the drawings.
Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 illustrate one embodiment of my invention. In this embodiment, the cabinet l0 comprises a pair of side walls l4 and l5, 2. rear wall it, a front wall ll, a top wall l8, and a bottom wall which is not shown The walls form anenclosure for housing the radio receiving set I! and the record player 12.. Ihe front wall H has an opening 29 therein for permitting accessto the radio receiving set I l and the record player l2. The opening 2!) is closed by a door or closure 2! which functions in a manner which will be fully described hereinafter. The record player [2 is shown in its normal position in the cabinet H) in Figs. 1, 2 and 3.
The radio receiving set H is of a conventional type and comprises the usual chassis 22,having the usual transformers 23, amplifying tubes 24 and condensers '25, mounted thereon. The radio receiving set H is mounted on the inside of the cabinet ID on the front wall I! by means of a bracket 26 and inclines downwardly from the opening 2B in the front wall [1. The bracket 26 extends upwardly and rearwardly from the opening 2E3. The front side of the bracket 26 is visible from the front of the cabinet and a broadcast frequency dial 2? is graduated thereon. An indicator 23 is synchronized with the tuning element of the radio receiving set and extends through i the bracket 26. A tuning control 29 for tuning the receiving set If to the desired frequency extends through the bracket 25 and is accessible from the front of the cabinet IE! through the opening 2!]. The indicator 28 is moved along the dial 2'! by turning the tuning control 29. A control 30 which is used for turning the power to the radio receiving set I! on and off and for regulating the volume of the radio receiving set II and. a control 3| for regulating the tone extend through the bracket 26. The controls 30 and 3| are also accessible from the front of the cabinet I!) through the opening 20. The audio out: put from the radio receiving set is connected to a loud speaker 32 which is mounted on the front wall ll of the cabinet II).
From the above description it is seen that the dial 21, pointer 28, tuning control 29, power switch and volume control 30, and tone control 3| are all visible and accessible for adjustment from the front of the cabinet it! through the opening 2 9 in the front wall ll thereof.
The record player i2 may be of a conventional type and comprises a platform 35, a turntable 38 for supporting records to be played thereon, a center post 31 for centering records to be played, and a pick-up mechanism 38 for picking up intelligence from a record. A motor for rotating the turntable 36 is usually mounted under the platform 35. The motor is usually connected to a suitable source of power through some well known means. The output from the pick-up mechanism 38 is connected to the audio amplifier of the radio receiving set ll through a conductor 13. The audio amplifier amplifies the intelligence picked up by the pick-up mechanism and reproduces it through the loud speaker 32 of theradio receiving set I l.
Therecord playing apparatus [2 is supported in the cabinet above the radio receiving set N by means of two sets of rails 42 and 43. A rail 4| is mounted on the inside of each of the side walls l4 and I5 of the cabinet H] at substantially equal elevations, and at substantially the same elevation as the bottom of the opening in the front wall I! of the cabinet. A rail 43 is attached to each side of the platform 35, substantially opposite each other. The rails 43 are substantially rectangular in cross section and each of the rails 42 have a substantially rectangular slot 44 therein for receiving one of the rails 43. The rails 42 and 43 provide a slide arrangement which permits an operator to slide the record playing apparatus |2 into and out of the cabinet is through the opening in the front wall l1 thereof. The rails 42 and 43 may be attached to the cabinet It and record playing apparatus l2 in' any suitable manner, such as, with screws or the like.
A bracket 45, having an off-set arm portion 47, is rigidly attached to each side of the platform at the front thereof. The upper ends 48, of each of the oif-set portions 41 of the brackets 46, are pivotally attached to oppositesides of the closure 2|, near the top thereof by pins 49. A strap 55 is fixedly attached to the closure 2 I, near the top thereof, opposite each of the arms 41. The inner ends of the straps 5!! have U-shaped portions 5| formed thereon, which U-shaped portions 5| extend around the arm portions 41 of the brackets 45. The closure 2| is provided with a handle 52 for moving it back and forth.
When it is desired to load records on the turntable 35 for playing, the operator simply pulls outward on the handle 52. The brackets 55, Us shaped portions 5| of brackets 59, and arm 4'! of bracket 46 transmits the pull tothe platform 35 and causes the record player l2 to slide along the rails 42 and 43 to the desired outward position, such as indicated in Fig. 4. After the turntable 35 has been loaded with records, the record player I2 may be returned to its normal position within the cabinet I6, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, simply by pushing inward on the handle 52.
7 After the record playing apparatus has been returned to the inside of the cabinet Hi, ,it is desired to adjust the controls 29, 35 and 3| of the radio receiving set N. This may be accomplished by pushing still further inward on the handle 52. The pins 49 permit the closure 2| to'pivot thereabout so that the lower end 53 of the closure 2| moves into the cabinet It, as indicated in Fig. 2. It is seen that with the closure 2| in the position shown in Fig. 2 the operator has access to the controls 29, 3|) and 3| for ad justing or manipulating the same. After the controls 29, 323 and 3| have been adjusted, the closure 2| may be moved to a position substantially flush with the front wall I! of the cabinet 1 8, as indicated in Fig. 3, simply by pulling slightly outward on the handle 52. In this position of the door 2| all controls are completely hidden from outside the cabinet I0. The pins 49 provide just enough friction between the arms 41 of the brackets 46 and the edges of the closure 2| to hold the closure 2| in any inclined position to which it is adjusted.
The embodiment shown in Figs. 5 and 6 is similar to the previous embodiment, except, instead of pivoting the closure 2| to the record playing apparatus, the closure 2| is fixedly attached in a vertical position to the platform 35. The record I2 is moved into and out of the cabinet by push-- ing inward or pulling outward on the handle 52 as in the previous embodiment. However, in this embodiment the rails 42 are longer than in the previous embodiment to permit moving the radio apparatus far enough back into cabinet Hi to permit access to the controls of the radio receiving set. To gain access to the controls 25, 38 and 3| the operator simply pushes back on the handle 52 to move the record player horizontally back into cabinet ID to a position such as indicated in Fig. 5. After the controls 29, 3|] and 3| have been adjusted to the operators satisfaction, the closure 2| is again pulled back flush with the front wall l! of the cabinet NJ, as shown in Fig. 3. A spring loaded pin .54 is provided on each of the rails 43 and a slot 55 is provided in each of the rails 42; The pin 54 snaps into the slot55 when the record player |2 reaches a position in the cabinet I!) where the closure 2| is substantially flush with the front wall H. The pin 54 and slot 55 serve to lock or detain the record player l2 in this position which is its normal position in the cabinet Iii. However, pressure on the handle 52 in either of the two operating directions will cause the pin 54 to ride out of the slot 55 and permit the record player 2 to slide on the rails 42 and 43.
It is understood that if it is desired to use the radio receiving set. N to the exclusion of the record player i2, access may be had to the controls 29, 3i} and 3| of the radio receiving set in each embodiment, simply by pushing inward on the handle 52 to move the closure 2| to the position shown in Fig. 2 or 5. After the controls have been adjusted, the closure 2| may be moved back to the position shown in Fig. 3.
There are many advantages of our invention. By mounting the record player l2 above the radio receiving set N and providing a single closure 2| for gaining access to both, a more economical console type radio-record player combination may be produced. The arrangement provided permits easy access to all of the controls which ordinarily require adjustment during operation of such apparatus; however, the controls are completely hidden from the operator when'they are not being adjusted. It is desirable to cover the controls for many reasons. to the aesthetic features of the combination, it is desirable to make it impossible for small children to manipulate the controls and possibly receive a severe shock by touching a faulty control.
While we have shown our invention in several forms, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that it is not so limited, but is susceptible of various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit thereof, and we desire, therefore, that only such limitations shall be placed thereupon as are specifically set forth in the appended claims.
