To (LM whom it may concern.:
Be it known that I, EDWIN S. Vorm, n i citizen of the United States, residing in the borough of Manhattan, city, county, and l Stute of New York, (post-oiee address Aeog lian Hall, 362 Fifth avenue, New York city,Y l New Yorkfl have invented certain new and g useful .lrnn'ovements in Mechanical Mui-:ioni l Apparatus, of which the following is aspect ioetion. n The invention relates to keyboard instinnients and to the combination therewith of means for )layin the instrument with the loi-nte music roll or sheet.
The prima object of the inventionris 't Y provide n tracker-board and supports for then perforated sheet which are movable indepsnd enti; of the bellows and operatingpneuinsties nnd'whioh when in operative position shsllbe struxnent, but which may be moved down out of' the wary of access to the keyboard when it is desired to ploy the instrument manually. The bellows, striking sind other pnounmties are located within the easing oi' the instrument and are secured therein in any well-known or desired manner.
Certain other features of the invention will be understood from the following specification and claims.
In the accompanying drawings one ein;Y bodlnent of the invention in sin upright piano is illustrated. Y
Figure l is o. vertical fronbtoqeilr section oi' n. piano, showing a. folding trinzlenlnoorfl und music-roll support embodying; the present. invontion. l"i;. 2 is n iront elevation ol ille lo'wm' portion, of the sumo piano with the iront port removedY to oxpose certain poitions ol' tliv playing mechanism und slowing: the position of the tlmaker-lmnrd ond musiclnlw-op roll when ready for use for playing. Fig. l is n front elevation, on n sliglillylu'rgor suole, oi llw lradier-lumrd, {oliv-up roll, und fwrtiiin other conmwtrd ports n'hlvli more down with llns ll'mlivr oord, the raising nl'. the righlflmni will l lu'o'sco nwo); to show ille interior uw. i' Fig. 4 it View from llio l -lmm il Fig. avvii-ltV lhe end ol' llw casing removed lo slio'lililie interior mechanism. Fig. 4" is n detoioftheslde hereinafter referred to, and Fig. 5 is a.
Ytions that lead from the trnizkordlrmi horizontal oi'osslseetion through the trae-kerboard on the piane 5 5 of Fig. l and showing.' also the relationship of the pianodieys and two of the controlling-levers to the trml'sorboord.
As automatic. ond eoxnbimition pianos nre well known, there will loe no need oi descr-ily ingY the various ports except so for es they nre'direetly related to tho movable troc-lienbonrd and music-roll support.' in such in struinents it is common to have the expression-levers tempo levers, and such other levers es may be provided for controlling the ineuizinism for the mechanical playing Vextend to the iront of the keyboard, so that Y the handles of these levers exposed to Wc:')nvenn-nt position in front of the keys.
Such eontrollingdeyers are shown in Figs. l, 2, and 5 of the accompanying drawings at B and C. The. present invention does not oon- -cern the arrangement olE the pedals E or the bellows F or the. equalizers (l or the pneuniiities H. Neither does it concern the dvtails ol the pneumatic motor J nor the controlling-valves for the tempo expression, rewind5 &e. Several of these parts are, however, showniu the accompanying drawings. The keys L of the kevhon-rd are only portially shown; nniny of them being indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2.
Under the present invention the ooo:
whether they nro elecl'rivni, piumoni l oth fr, ne.' the ense may he, nre i .lexlilo nti terinl :tud e. tend into the casing l unir 'l' axis oi' shaft O, to which the if ing otod, Y:is shown in the drewings. 'lliose non@ nootions are the small puemnntic pipes P, whioli pass up within the easing M and oom inunute, as Well unllerellgmd in the nrt, with tho bolos in the tracker-infuori Q: Brrwhets il. secured to the ense A ol: the instrument, support the sluilt (9, nml consequently pivot the sup mrt or eusng M to the osso.

. claims I include the of this mounting is not material. The casing M is of such form that when in position for use it stands directly above and in front of the keys 'ofxthe keyboard. N o means of holding it against accidental displacement are shown, though in practice it is sometimes desirable to provide such means. When not in use, the casing is folded down in the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, `a spring-clip M being preferably provided for holding it, as shown. It will be noticed that the end of the lever B of Fi s. 1 and 5 is behind the casing M, and for t e operation of this lever a slide V is provided, the forward end of the slide being exposed through the slot V` in the casing M, so t at it rmay be manipulated, and the rear en`d of the slide being forked, as shown in Fi 4, for engagin and embracing the end o the lever B, so t the slide V causes an e ual movement of the end of the lever B. T e slide V is made in the elongated-U form shown in order that it may notanterfere with the tracker-board connections. i
Within the right-hand end of the casing M are the connections for operating the take-u roll and the music-roll from the shaft Preferably the music-roll S is driven by a sprocket-chain .and s eed-reducing gearin as shown in Figs. 3 and) 4. The small gear W and the sprocket-wheel W', which turns with it, are mounted to slide'u on the shaft -X, and a pin-clutch -Y is providbd for engagement with a sprocket-wheel Z, geared by as rocketchain to the rewinding-stud T. en the gear W is in the position shown in Fig. 3, it engages, as shown, the gear that turns 4the take-up roll S, and when it is moved to the right along its shaft X the s`mall gear W leaves the arge gear 'with which it was engaged and the clutch Y closes, so as to cause the turning of the sprocket-Wheel Z for driving the rewinding stud or spindle T. This motion of the gear W and the clutch Y is controlled by forked lever 71', the u per end of which ma touch the sprocket-w eel or any other of t e parts lthat rotate the gearwheel W on each side, so as to maintain them in position on the shaft X. The lower end of the lever Z projects through the front of the casing), as seen in Fi s. 1, 2, and 4, so that it may e convenient y manipulated to conneet the shaft O to driveeither the take-up roll or the rewind;
When the piano or other instrument is to beplayed manually by means of the keys', the casin Mis turned forward and downward and then ack under the keyboard, as shown in dottedl lines in Fig. `1, and a spring clip or holder M engages and holds it in such osition out of t e way and nearly out of slght.
By the term action-casing as used in the part or parts .w 'ch s pport or inclose the van uspneum tics a d at the movement of which provide ducts or passages connecting, these pneumatics.
Manifestl the invention is inde 4endent of the particu ar form and desi o the parts shown and may be embodienin other musical instruments than u right pianos.
