T o all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, Gnonon R. TAYLOR, a citizen ,of the United States, residing in the city andA county of San Francisco and State/of California, have invented new aiid useful improvements in rlelephone-Mouthpices, of which the following is a specification.
'My invention relates to improvements in the mouth-pieces of telephones into which spoken words are delivered.
1t consists of a mouthpiece mounted independently, and at a distance from the diaphragm-containing portion of the appay .ratus, with supports whereby an open unobstructed space is provided between the mouth-piece and the operative parts.
.My invention also comprises details of construction which will be more fully explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an exterior View showing the application of my device. Fig. 2 is a sectional View in line with the axis. Fig. 3 is a section showing the transmitter openings.
It is the object of my invention to provide, first, a superior sanitary mouth-piece for telephones; second, to insure a more direct delivery of speech to the transmitting mechanism, and to avoidthe confusion often caused by the sound-waves striking the sides ot' a closed mouthpiece before entering the transmitter.
A is the ter mechanism, and may be of the usual er any suitable construction.
2 is the perforated disk through which the sound waves enter the transmitter.
3 is the mouth-piece, the outer portion of which is divergent as shown, and the inner portion is here shown as being cylindrical for a short distance, but it will be manifest that the form of the mouthpiece may be` varied to suit `the conditions or taste.
This mouth-piece is supported at.a..consid' erable distance from the part 2 b means of arms or standards l4f, the inner en s ot which may be fixed to a ring 2 surrounding the.
part .2, or otherwise have a firm attachment ortion containing the transmit' to some portion of the transmitter. These `arms or standards extend outward, and the outer ends are fixed to the mouth-piece 3 as shown. Any suitable or desired :numb r ot' these arms or connections may be empldyed. 'I have here shown two which form a sufli* cient su port, with a minimum of interfering sur aces between the mouth-piece and Y the transmitting portion of the device. The mouth-piece being open, speech or other sounds delivered into the mouth-piece, meet with no surfaces to defiect or change their character, and enter dii'ectly'into the transmitting mechanism through the perforated plate 2, thus overcoming a very considerable difficulty which occurs when the. Jerson who is speaking does not talk directly into the axis of the mouth-piece, and under such conditions, the sides of a closed mouth-piece. will defiect the vocal vibrations to such an extent that they are almost or quite unintelligible at the receiving end. This is overcome in my device, since there are no surfaces extending from the outer to the inner portion of the mouth-piece.
The most important part ot' the invention l between the mouth-piece and the transmit ter, and thc whole apparatus is very easily maintained in a clean and wholesome condition withou't other attachments.
Having thus described my invention, whatl claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1 1. The combination in a telephone transmitter, of a mouth-piece having its inner end supported at a distance from and substantially in axial line with the transmitter to thereby provide an intervening, substantially unobstructed, transverse space between the back of the mouth-piece and the front of the transmitter.
2. The combination with a transmitting mechanism of a telephone, of a mouthpiece, supports or standards extending from the mouth-piece to the transmitter, and foaming open .unobstructed spaces between` said supports.
'3. The combination with a transmitting mechanism of a telephone, of 'an ndepend- In testimony whereof I have herent set ently supported mouth-piece substantially infa'xal line with the transmitter, stand- Witnesses. lards or'supports having the outer ends ut- GEORGE R. TAYLOR. tached to the mouth-piece, and a ring on the VitneSses:
