Application filed September 14, 1923. Serial No. 662,697.
7 Set Cabinets, of which the following is a specification;
My present invention relates to improvements in means for housing the receiving loop a radio-set cabinet, which at the same time permits it to be given the necessary angular adjustment relatively to the sending station. 7 c
The drawings show my improvements in connection with one kind of radio cabinet,
' namely, one embodying a phonograph, al-,
though the latter has no essential bearing on my invention.
In said drawings, Fig.- 1 is a perspective View of a radio-set cabinet within'my invention, showing at the left an end panel in open position on whose rear or inner side is supposed to be mounted the receiving loop; Fig. 2 is a combined horizontal sec tion and plan view taken somewhat below the lid 2 in Fig. 1 and well below the lid 3 in said figure, so as to pass through the neck of the phonograph horn, which latter is supposed to be located behind the door 7, the phonograph s ring motor, turntable, tone-arm and soundox (not shown) being supposedto .be located in the usual mariner above the horn. However, the important feature of this Fig. 2, so far as my present invention is concerned, is the hinged panel construction shown at the left for operatively supporting the loop and at the same time permitting 1t to be housed out of sight when not in use. Fig. 3 is an elevational view of the loop on the rear side of said panel thecover 26 shown in Fig. 4 having been removed: and Fig. 4 is a combined horizontal section and plan view on an enlarged scale taken on the line 4-4 in Fig. 3 lookin in the direction of the arrows.
Descri ing now my invention by way of the embodiment thereof shown in the draw ings, comprising a cabinet for a combined radio-set and phonograph, 1 is a cabinet of the low, elongated or rectangular type having two lids 2 and 3,-both hinged at the back of the cabinet.
The radio-set is located at one end of the cabinet under the lid 2, and the phonograph is at the other end under the lid 3. A fore and aft middle partition 6 in the cabinet extends between the radio-set and the phonograph. c
7 and 8 are the usual doors in'the front of the cabinet, door 7 being in front of the mouth of the phonograph horn 9, and door 8 being in front of the radio-set.
11 (Fig. 2) is an electrical wiring connection extending through a hole in the partition 6 to operatively connect the radio-set with the loud speaker 12, which latter in turn-isconnected by tube 13 with an opening in the neck of the phonograph horn 9.
The rest of the phonograph,comprising turntable, tone-arm and sound-box, are not illustrated, these being the well known, ordinary construction located in a compartment under the lid 3 and abovethe horn 9.
- In the same way, it is not necessary to illustrate the details of the radio-set otherv than to state that same may be of any usual or preferred construction or make-up adapted for use with a receiving loop and same will .behoused in the compartment behind the door'8 and under the lid 2.
Fig. 2 shows the panels covering the top of this radio-set compartment, these comprising-(1st) a fixed horizontally disposed.
rear panel 14; '(2d) a hinged horizontally disposed middle panel 15 hinged at 15" to give convenient access to the row of am'- plifier and detector tubes 16 supported in said compartment underneath said hinged panel 15; (3d) a fixed front panel 17 supporting the controls 18 of the radio-set, sald panel in fore and aft direction inclining downwardly to the front of the cabinet; (4th) a horizontal shelf 19 located between the lower front edge of the aforesaid 1nclined panel 17 and the lower edge of an opening through the front of the radio-set compartment, said opening being located above the door 8.
A closure is provided for said last named opening consisting of a door 20 hinged at its lower edge to tilt downwardly and outwardly into a substantially horizontal postion wherein it is adapted to be supported in any suitable manner as by the members 21. This door 20 when in its down position is on a level with the shelf 19 and acts as an arm rest for the operator when manipulating the controls 18.
I will now describe the novel features more directly related to my present improvements. The left end 22 (Fig. 2) of the cabinet is set in so as to be at the inner portion of the corner pieces 23 of the cabinet instead of being set out relatively to said corner pieces like the right hand end 2st of the cabinet. Said ends 22 and 24 are fixed or permanent.
25 is a door hinged at one of the left hand corner pieces 23 of the cabinet so as to swing about a vertical axis and so as to occupy a position, when closed, corresponding to that of the right end 24 relatively to the corner pieces 23. The thickness of the respective parts is such that when the said door 25 is closed, there is enough space between it and the fixed end 22 to accommodate the thickness of the receiving loop 26, which is accordingly mounted on the rear or inner face of said door 25. Compare Fig. 2, in which the flexible wiring connection 27 is shown operatively connecting the loop with the radio-set, said connection for this purpose extending through a hole in the end 22 of the cabinet to reach the radio-set within the left hand compartment.
The outer face of the end 22 is, of course, stained and varnished or otherwise finished so as to have a presentable appearance when the door 25 is open; said end 22 when said door is open, of course, prevents looking into the radio-set compartment. Further, said end 22 along with the fore and aft middle partition 6 serve to su port the radio-set in raised position off the oor of the cabinet by means of the cleats 29 secured to the inner faces of said end 22 and partition 6 respectively.
The detailed construction of the loop 26 may be of any well known design or otherwise; but that shown is a preferred construction consisting of a wooden support or spider 26 having a continuous wire 26 strung on its arms in the form of a squared,
as distinguished from a rounded, spiral. The two ends of said wire are brought out insulated from each other and constitute the flexible electrical connection 27 operatively joining the loop to the radio-set. The said spider 26 is fastened to the inner face of the panel or door 25.
The foregoing constitutes the loop. To protect and further conceal said loop, I prefer to surround it with a casing comprising a frame made up of suitably thick strips 26 bridged over by a cover 26*, the same being secured to the door'25 by screws 28.
The loop can be given the necessary angular adjustment relatively to the sending station by merely swinging the hinged panel 25 supporting it as aforesaid. \Vhen through receiving, this panel may be swung into its closed position, thereby housing the loop in the end of the cabinet. Even when the panel is in its open position, the loop is nevertheless concealed and protected by the casing made up of the parts 26 and 26 There will be, of course, a releasable fastening means on the panel 25 to keep it closed, and a knob to open it.
What I claim is:
The combination with a cabinet of a loop radio-receiving set comprising an outside end-panel of said cabinet supported to swing about a vertical axis and operatively sup porting on its inner face the loop of said radio-receiving set so that, when said endpanel is closed it conceals said loop; and an inside panel enclosing the same end of said cabinet located to provide a space between itself and the aforesaid outside panel to house the loop when the outside panel is in its closed position.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification this 12th day of September, 1923.
CHARLES H. VOTEY.
