Specification of Letters Yaten't.
Patented 2t),
Application filed January 29, 1909. Serial No. 475,640.
of Sumner, in the county of Pierce and State of 'ashington, have invented a new and lmproved Record-Holder, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to phonographs, and
its object is to provide a new and improved record holder arranged to accurately and securely hold the record'm central position, to-accommodate records of different SIZES,
to compensate for ariations of the inside diameter of the records, to hold the record against accidental shifting in an axial direc' tion and to allow placing the record conveniently in position on the holder or removing it therefrom. For the purpose mentioned, the holder is provided with a plural ity of bars for engagement with the inner surface of the record and mounted to swing in unison toward and from the axis of the holder. the bars being pressed in an outard direction by a spring device.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying draw-. ings forming part of this specification and in which similar characters of reference in dicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improvcmcnt; Fig. 2 is a longitudinal central section of the same and showing the record in place; and Fig. 3 is a front. end elevation of the same. The usual feed shaft A, of a phonograph t "tends through a tube B, secured centrally to the feed shaft by set screws C, preferably screwing in heads B, B secured or formed on the ends of the tube B. By the use of thesct screws 0 the tube B can be accurately centered on the feed shaft A, and as the inside diameter of the tube B is somewhat in excess of the diameter of the feed shaft A, it is evident that the tube B can bc rcadily fitted on feed shafts varying slightly in dianictcr.
The heads l3. i. are pivotally connected by scls of links I). l) with lugs E. E, at-
lachcd to or formed on the inner faces of iongitudinally-cxtcnding bars 1*, adapted to engage with then outer .taccs the nmcr surface of the cylindrical phonograph record G, to support the latter centrally relative to the axis of the feed shaft A. The rear ends of the bars F are provided with outwardlye'vtending integral stop lugs F, in engagement with the rear end of the phonograph record G to iiniit the rearward movement thereof, and the for 21rd ends of the said bars F are provided with humps i for engagement with the for-Yard ends of the phonograph record G to hold the record.
against accidental outward movement, said bars having inwardly bent terminals i Thus when the phonograph record is in position on the bars IF, it is held against movement in a longitudinal direction.
On the inner faces of the bars i and at po1nts mterniedmte the sets of lu s E. E.
arranged another set of lugs 1 provided with transverse pins E engaging slotted arms H, formed or secured in a sleeve H, mounted to slide at its forward end on the tube B, and at its rear end on a collar I, held on the tube B and abutting against the head B A spring J is coiled on the tube B within the sleeve H and rests with its rear end 011 the collar 1, the forward end of the spring pressing against the forward end of the sleeve H to move the sleeve H in a forward direction, the movement. of the sleeve H in this direction being limited i a stop collar K, held adjustably on the tube B by a set screw K.
Phonograph records G, as now usually constructed, have a tapering borc; that. is; the
rear end is larger in diameter than the front end, and in order to insure contact of thc bars F throughout. their length with thcinner tapering wall of the record it, it is necessary that the bars i he corre pondingly inclined, as plainly shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
When the holder is in position on the fccd shaft A, as shown in Fig. i, and it is dcsircd to place a record G in position on the arms F. the operator places the rear end of the row ord against the terminals F of the arms 1 as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. i. and then pushes the record in the direction of the arrow (1. so that the arms F arc caused to swing rearward and inward to allow the record to pass t'hc humps F the record finally abutting with its rear end against th against the pins E and hugs E in a like dii of the shaft and mounted for nmvemeut io-.
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters stop lugs i and at the time the hun l.
have passed out of thofront end of the record and now abut against the front end of this record. il lien the arms F are l to swing rearward and inward, as above described, the pins E act on the arms H" to move the sleeve H in a re; rward direction. against the tension of thespriug d, and when the record reaches its final position on the arms F and the operator releases the record it, then the pressure exerted by the spring J against the sleeve ill in a forward direction causes the arms H of thesleeve to press rection, thus forcing the bars F in firm contact with the inner surface of therecord (l and thereby cause the record (l to turn with the holder fastened toamlturniug with the feed screw A. Vilhen itis desired to remove the record G, tie operator takes hold of the record and pushesthe same toward the right in the inverse direction of the arrow (1 to cause the forward end to act. on the humps F with a view to swing the bars F inward at their forward ends, the links D permittingsuch movement; The record is now readily slipped off the holder and the arms F swing outward to their. full extent by the action of the spring Jon the sleeve H, the movement of which and that of the bars l being finally limited by the sleeve H. abutting against the stop collar K.
The bars F. are preferably curved at their outer faces to conform to the {innersurface of the records, thus providing a large gripping surface to hold the records against turning on the bars. As the arms F are mounted to swing bodily toward and from the axis of the feed shaft A and the arms are normally held in an outermost position by the action of thespring-pressed sleevell, it is evident that the arms readily yieiu bodily to permit of placing the records gently in position or removing the same therefrom, and hence all injury to the records is completely avoided and the holder readily accommodat ,5; records of dilferent sized bores.
Having thus descril'ied my invention, I
