TELEPHONE-TRANSMITTER B ASE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 732,286, dated June 30, 1903. Application filed October '7, 1902. Serial No. 126,360. (No model.)
To all whom it may-concern:
Be it known that I, ERNEST B. FAHNESTOCK,
residing at the borough of Manhattan, city of New York, and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Telephone-Transmitter Bases, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure l is a front elevation. Fig. 2 is a side elevation. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. i is a side elevation of one of the resilient arms.
My invention relates to the construction of a supporting-base for a pivoted arm such as is now commonly used for carrying a telephone-transmitter.
The object of my inventionis to decrease the cost of the base, improve its appearance, and provide that the projecting arms of the base shall exert a spring-pressure upon the pivoted arm at its point of connection with said base.
Bases have heretofore been made consisting of two projecting arms and a body portion cast integrally of iron or other similar material. This type of base has been found objectionable, as it is not possible to make a smooth casting. Consequently considerable finishing is required. Further, in order to give the arms sufficient strength so much metal must be used that they will have no resiliency, and consequently will not exert any spring-pressure upon the pivoted arm.
My improved base consists, essentially, of
two projecting arms of resilient metal and a body portion cast around the bottom of such arms.
In the drawings, A indicates the projecting arms, which are preferably made of steel or other resilient material. Cast around the lower ends of these arms is a base B. The material of the base may be iron, steel, or other metal or a metallic alloy may be employed. In order to firmly secure the arms A in the base B, I prefer to bend the arms A at right angles at their lower ends, as shown at O. The base shown is hollow. It may be, however, solid.
I do not limit myself to the shape to be given to the arms or the base.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- 1. A basefor a telephone-transmitter, comprising a pair of parallel arms formed of spring metal, and a body cast around the lower ends of said arms.
2. A base for a telephone-transmitter, comprising a pair of parallel arms of spring metal, said arms bent at their lower ends at right angles, and a body cast around said lower ends of said arms.
I11 testimony that I claimthe foregoing as my invention I have hereunto signed my name this 30th day of September, 1902.
ERNEST B. FAHNESTOOK.
In presence of- FRED O. HANFORD, WM. T. READ.
