RECORD-HOLDER. i
Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Patented JulyT 11, 1916.
*To alle/071,072?, it may concern:
Be it known that I, J Aims W. HUGHES, a citizen of the United States, residing in Narberth, county of Montgomery, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Record-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
One object of lmy invention is to con struct a cabinet for holding the disk records of talking machines so that a large' number of records can be held in a comparatively small space. 'y
A further object of the invention is to construct the cabinet so that any one of the records can be quickly removed therefrom or replaced.
A still further object of the invention is to construct the cabinet so that the labels corresponding to a particular record canbe read when the record is brought into line with the opening in the cabinet.
Another object of the invention is to arrange the cabinetso that records of diiferent diameters can be alternately assembledin the carrier.
In the accompanying drawings :F1gure in section, illustrating my improved disk record holder; Fig. 2, is a transverse sectional view on the line a-a, Fig. 1; Fig. 3, is an enlarged plan view, showing the relation of the compartments for -the record; and Figs. 4 and 5, are views illustrating modifications of the invention.
While my invention is particularly adapt'- ed for holding the disk records of a talking machine, it will be understood that it can be used for holding other narrow and fiat objects, without departing 4from the essential'features of the invention.
Referring to the drawings, l, is the body of the cabinet supported on legs 2, in the present instance.
3 is the top of the cabinet forming a table to 'lhe cabinet may be square, as shown, or round, or hexagonal, or of other shapes, as desired.
4 is the bottom of the cabinet and 5, 5 are the sides.
Located within the body of the cabinet is a rotatable carrier 6 having a hub 7 and a rim 8. Mounted between the hub vand the rim is a series of wedge-shaped partitions 9 and these partitions are spaced apart to form between them compartments 10 for the records of a given diameter, and, in order to accommodate records of less diameter,
compartments 1l are formed in the partitlons by recessmg the partitions from their 'outer ends inwardly, as clearly shown in Fig. 3. The standard records of the present time are twelve inches and ten inches in diameter, and the cabinet 1s designed to accommodate these records. The carrier is mounted on a vertical 4shaft 12 adapted to al bearing 13 in the bottom 4 of the cabinet and in a bearing 14 in the under side of the top 3. In the present instance, the carrier is turned by a shaft l5 having a hand wheel 16 thereon located at one side of the cabinet, and on the inner end of this shaft is a bevel gear 17 meshing with la gear 18 on the shaft 12. Other means may be used to turn the carrier without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the top 3 of the cabinet is a radial slot 19 having an offset portion 20. This slot is of a greater length than the largest record and is of such a width as to allow a record to be projected from the carrier sufficiently 27. In the bottom 25 of the carrier is a.
series of tapered holes 26 located at the same distance from the center of rotation of the carrier and the holes communicate with the compartments of the carrier and are in alinement with the end of the extension23 of the lifter 21 so, when the lifter is raised, it will lift the disk located in the compartment directly over it, forcing it through the slot 19in the top of the table suhciently to allow a person to grasp the disk and to remove it.
Each partition 9 is wide enough to have the name of the particular piece pasted or printed thereon and this name, or a portion thereof, will be exposed through the odset portion 2O of theslot 19 so that a person desiring a certain disk can turnthe handle 16, which will turn the carrier until the piece desired is opposite the slot 19. After a record has been removed the parts can remain in the same position until it is desired to reproject above the carrier place the disk, when it can be replaced by hand and the carrier turned to any compartment desired.
l have shown the cabinet with a dat top, which can be used as a table, or as a stand for a talking machine, as desired. rlh'e shape of they cabinet as illustrated in the drawing is quadrangular, but it will be understood that it may be of any shape desired, depending upon the design considered most appropriate.
In some instances,I the carrier may be mounted at one end of the table or cabinet and, Where it is desired to have a perfectly flat top so that a "talking machine may be mounted thereon, l may have the slot at the side of the cabinet, as indicated at 19a, Fig. t; the base of each of the compartments being arranged on a slight incline vso that the tendency of the disk record is to remain Within `the carrier 6a. ll may provide a pusher, such as 21a, Which may be actuated so. as to 'pass through one of the openings in the bottom ofthe carrier, pushing the record through Ithe slot 19a a sulhcient distance so that it can be easily removed.
In Fig. 4, l have shown the operating shaft 15a mounted under the cabinet and geared toy the shaft 12a by ordinary bevel gearing.
ln lFig. 5, l have illustrated another modification in which a section 3a of the top can be raised so as to yexpose a series of records, and in this instance the carrier 6b is less .in height than the records, 'so that they4 will to enable a person to select any one of the records andl to remove it Without using the pusher hereinbefore/described. ln -this instance, l have also shown a knob 16a projecting above thev table top 3", which is attached to the carrier so that, on turning the knob, the carrier can be turned to the position desired.
-By the above description, it Will be seen that l am enabled to provide a cabinet'vvhich Will accommodate a large number of talking machine records on edge in a comparatively small space. rllhe carrier is so arranged that it will accommodate records of different diameters.
The cabinet can be of any shape desired and the carrier can be mounted in a specially the carrier and to designed cabinet or in a portion of a or other piece of furniture, Without detractv ing from the outward appearance thereof.
ll claim l. The combination in a record holder, of a casing; a carrier mounted Within the easing and having radial partitions forming compartments, the top of the casing having a slot radiating from the center of rotation of the carrier; the bottom of the carrier having an opening therein communicating with each compartment; and means in line with the slot in the top of the casing arranged to extend through the opening in the bottom of project a record through the opening in the top of the casing.
2.7l`he combination in a record holder, ci a carrier having a hub and a rim; and a series of substantially Wedge-shaped partitions all radiating from a common center at the'hub and extending to the rim,I said partitions being spaced to form long compartmentsv and being recessed from their outer ends inwardly to form short compartments Which alternate with the long compartments; said compartments being adapted to receive disk records of dierent diameters.
3. The combination of a casing having top, bottom and sides; a carrier located With- 1n the casing and mounted on a vertical shatt having its bearings Within the casing; an operating shaft extending to one side of the casing and geared to the vertical shaft,
Wherebythe carrier can be turned, said carrier having a series of partitions spaced apart to form compartments for the disk records and having a series of openings in its bottom, one opening communicating with each compartment; a lifter mounted in guides on the casing and having a projecting portion extending through the opening in the `bottom of the carrier` so as to lift a record, ,the casing having a radial 'slot through which the record can be projected.
in testimony whereof, l have signed my name to this specification,- in the presence two subscribing Witnesses.
