SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 411,111, dated September 17, 1889.
Application filed February 9, 1889- Seral No. 299,303. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatI, AGUSTINE W. SIBLEY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Stamford, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Music- Stands, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates especially to portable music-stands, and has for its obj ect the provision of a stand which may be folded together in a compact manner, easily and quickly opened, and which may be nicely adj usted to suit the requirements of the user.
To attain the desired en d my invention consists in certain novel and useful combinations or arrangements of parts and peculiarities of construction and operation, all of which will be hereinafter first fully described, and then pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 shows a front elevation of my stand as set up for use. Fig. 2 shows a side view of the upper part of the stand. Fig. Sisa rearview of the mechanism for adjusting the music-holder. Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the same. Fig. 5 is a top plan view of the leg-adjusting mechanism. Fig. 6 is a view of the holder closed for transportation.
Like letters' of reference indicate correspending parts.
A is a metal tube, provided at top with a thumb-screw B and at bottom with a screwthreaded portion C and a disk D.
E is a runner having its interior screwthreaded to engage with screw C, and provided with ears F, wherein are pivoted the supporting-legs G.
H is a central rod or tube arranged to enter tube A and be held at any point by the thumbscrew B. At the top of this rod is fixed a yoke I.
K is a thumb-screw, the shank whereof passes through arm c' of the yoke and engages in a screw-threaded perforation in portion k.
L is a washer'arranged to take the wear of the parts.
M M are two disks perforated for the passage of the shank of thumb-screw K, and each having a slot N therein.
The music-rest is made of a central portion P, whereto are pivoted portions Q, R, and S, bearing side pieces T, the whole arranged to fold together.
At the rear of center P is fixed a strap U, which extends down beneath the rest and is curved back at the front thereof, as particularly illustrated in Fig. 2.
By turning the thumb-screw K the disks M will be separated, permitting the strap U to slide in the slots N to any position,and also the changing of the angle of the rest, and by drawing the disks together the rest will be held at the desired point.
In closing the stand the disks are loosened and the strap U passed upward through the slots until the curved portion allows the folded rest to be turned downward with its face against the standard.
The legs Cr are held in place by turning the runner E upon the screw C until the disk D forces them apart, and when it is desired to close the stand the runner is unscrewed and slides up tube A, permitting the legs to rest against said tube, all the parts assuming the compact shape illustrated in Fig. 6.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim is` 1. In a music-stand, the combination, with the music-rest, of a strap secured at one end to the back thereof, passing to the bottom of themusic-rest and bending back upon itself, forming a loop, where it is again secured to the music-rest, said strap being movably connected to a clamp mounted upon a vertical support and consisting of two notched disks, through which the strap passes, the disks being perforated for the reception of a supporting and holding screw, substantially as shown and described.
2. The combination, with the strap secured to the music-rest, of the slotted disks embracing said strap, and the thumb-screw passing through said disks, and the supportingyoke mounted upon the vertical support, substantially as shown and described.
3. A music-stand consisting of a central supporting-tube having a runner thereon, to which the legs are adj ustably pivoted, and carrying at one extremity an adjustable vertical support bearing a clamp consisting of IOO two notched disks provided with an adjust- Signed at Stamford, in the county of Fairing-screw, in combination with a music-rest, field and State of Connecticut, this 14th day the Sides or wings whereof are adapted to of January, A. l). 188.0. swing parallel to the center bar of the rest, 5 said rest beingconnected to the adjustable AGUSTINE W. SBLEY.
notched disks by a strap secured to the back of the center bar, passing to the bottom of lllitnesses: the rest and bending back upon itself, form- GEO. BOWMAN, ingaloop, the Whole arranged to fold together, E. \V. RKER.
1o substantially as shown and described.
