SUPPORT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 781,977, dated Febru ry '7, 1905.
Application filed April 15, 1904. Serial No. 203,345.
To 0]] 1171 out it 111/!7 concern.-
be it known that I, H ARRY B. \VnNTwoRTH, a citizen of the United States, and a residentof Middleboro. in the county of Plymouth and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and improved Support, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to supports, and more particularly those adapted for use in connection with the horns of phonographs and the like. lts principal objects are to provide a simple and etfective support which may be folded into compact form.
lt consists in the various features hereinafter described and more particularly claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indi cate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of one embodiment of my invention in use. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the support, and Fig. 3 shows the same folded.
1d designates a rod or standard of suitable size to permit its being secured in a base or stand portion B of an ordinary folding musicrack. At its upper end 11 this standard is preferably threaded for coaction with a correspondingly-threaded bore or socket in a head 12. In the head is a notch or recess formed between the inner converging walls of opposite branches 13 13, which give to the head a general Y shape. At the intersection of these branch walls is located a perforated lug 1-1 of less thickness than the width of the branches, and to the opposite sides of this lug are pivoted arms 15 15, which are movable from a position parallel to one another until they contact with the branch walls. The outer ends of these arms are preferably cut away for half their thickness at 16, and to each reduced portion is articulated a similarly-cutaway portion 17 of an arm 17, the opposite ends of which are pivoted to one another at 18. The reduction of the arms at 16 and 17 permits the raising of them parallel to oneanother without their occupying a space substantially greater than the thickness of the two, and shoulders are also formed which may contact when the support is in use and take the weight of the object mounted upon the arms, thus distributing the stress longitudinally of the lower arms, as well as laterally. If desired, however, these arms may be slightly tapered-or thickened at 19 to furnish sutlicient stock to compensate for the reduction.
Upon the pivot 18 may be mounted the direct supporting member for the horn H, here shown as consisting of a perforated link 20, turning upon the pivot at one end and having attached to the other a flexible member or chain 21, at the bottom of which is a hook 22 for engagement with an eye 23 upon the horn.
In use the standard is inserted in the opening of the base and clamped in place and the head screwed upon it. The arms are then separated until the lower pair contact with the walls of the head branches, thus disposing the four connected arms in substantially the form of a square with the supporting member in alinement with the standard. The small end of the horn may then be inserted through this square and hung upon the hook. This places the supporting-pomt directly in the axis of the stand and furnishes a very stable structure.
\Vhen not in use, the horn may be removed from the hook, the arms folded together until they are parallel to one another, and the head, standard, and base separated, the support then occupying but little space.
It will be obvious that my invention provides both a secure support and one which when closed may be convenientlycarried and stored.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A support comprising a head provided with a recess having converging walls, a lug situated at the intersection of the walls and being of less thickness than the width of the recess, an arm pivoted in said recess at each side of the lug, and supporting means mounted upon the arms.
2. A support comprising a head provided with a recess having converging walls, a lug situated at the intersection of the walls and being of less thickness than the width of the recess, an arm pivoted in said recess at each side of the lug, an arm pivoted to each of said arms and to one another, the arms being provided With portions of reduced thickness at their coacting ends, and supporting means mounted upon the arms.
3. A support comprising a head provided with a recess having converging Walls, a lug situated at the intersection of the Walls and being of less thickness than the Width of the recess, an arm pivoted in said recess at each side of the lug, and an arm pivoted to each of said arms and to one another, the arms being provided with portions of reduced thickness at their coacting ends and furnishing shoulders which may contact When the support is in use.
4. A support comprising a head provided with a recess having converging Walls, a lug situated at the intersection of the walls and being of less thickness than the Width of the recess, an arm pivoted in said recess at each side of the lug, an arm pivoted to each of said arms and to one another, the arms being provided With portions of reduced thickness at their coacting ends, and a supporting-link carried by the pivot of the second pair of arms.
5. A support comprising a head, a pair of arms pivoted to the head, an arm pivoted to each of said arms and to one another, and supporting means carried by the pivotal connection between the second pair of arms.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
