A counterweight member is movably positionable on the end of the tubular member opposite the microphone capsule and incorporates the preamplifier.

PATENTED FEB 9m: 7 v 3;552 44 INV NTOR KONRHD lioLF ATTORNEYS ACOUSTICAL-ELECTRICAL TRANSDUCER AND SUPPORT ASSEMBLY SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to mounting an acoustical-electrical transducer, preferably for a condenser microphone, in which mounting the acoustical-electrical transducer is carried at one end of a long arm and the other end of the arm contains an amplifier.
Such mountings are used on theater stages, in concert halls and very often for television programs because they enable the use of very small microphones very close to the artist whereas the visual impression is not disturbed or the overall impression of the stage scenery is not unduly affected.
With the present state of the art, a microphone, particularly a condenser microphone, can be reduced in diameter and also in length, although this is less significant, to such an extent that the transducer can be secured at one end of a slender tube and a preamplifier is provided at the other end of the tube and is electrically connected to the microphone by a lowcapacitance line. The latter consists in mostcases of a concentric radio-frequency cable having a copper core 0.3 millimeters in diameter and an insulating covering of foamed polyethylene. Alternatively, the connecting tube itself may constitute the outer sheath of the cable and the inner conductor may be spaced from the inside surface of the tube by ceramic elements or the like. This design enables the use of a particularly slender tube for connecting the microphone and the amplifier.
For a fixation of the assembly comprising the microphone capsule, connecting tube and preamplifier, the previous practice has been to provide an extension at the free end of the housing in which the amplifier isaccommodated and to connect the assembly by means of a clip or another suitable adapter to a heavy base, a stand or the like. In the known assembly, the center of gravity may be close to the periphery of the supporting surface so that the assembly may tilt or a certain inclination must not be exceeded unless the base is unduly heavy. v
Another disadvantage of the known assembly is the fact that the attenuation of impact sound is reduced when the connecting tube is highly inclined and the floor stand is unevenly loaded. In this case the resilient layer of the stand is excessively compressed on one side so that its resilience is much reduced.
It is an object of the invention to reduce these disadvantages. The invention is characterized in that the amplifier or the like is accommodated in a housing which is designed to form a counterweight, the long tubular arm connecting the microphone and the amplifier is pivoted at the center of gravity of the subassembly consisting of the arm, microphone and counterweight in a forked bracket, and the counterweight is designed so that said center of gravity is close to the amplifier housing.
According to another feature of the invention, the housing which contains the amplifier or the like has an elongated cylindrical or prismatic shape and the counterweight is substantially constituted by a heavy part which entirely or partly surrounds the peripheral surface.
According to the invention, this heavy part, which substantially constitutes the counterweight of the housing, is slidably mounted to enable an adjustment of the counterweight exactly to the position which is required in view of the weight of the microphone and the lever arm. associated therewith. In a further development of the invention, an adjusting device, e.g., a screw or the like, may be provided for this purpose, and may be provided with a scale anda pointer so that the correct adjustment of the counterweight, e.g., for different types of microphones, can be visually indicated and time-consuming attempts to find the correct adjustment are not required.
The invention will nowbe described more fully hereinafter with reference to the drawing, in which FIGS. 1 and 2, respectively, are front and side elevations showing an assembly according to the invention which is secured to a floor base and FIG. 3 shows the fixation of the assembly to a stand.
As is apparent from FIGS. 1 and 2, the assembly according to the invention comprises a tube 1, which carries at one end a acoustical-electrical transducer, e.g., a condenser microphone capsule 2. The amplifier housing 3 has suitably an elongated cylindrical or prismatic shape and is carried at the other. lower end of the tube 1 in FIGS. 1 and 2. The peripheral surface of the housing 3 is formed in part by a preferably slidable sleeve 4, which is designed to form together with the other parts of the housing a counterweight for balancing the weight of the long lever arm and the microphone carried thereby if the connecting tube between the microphone and amplifier is pivoted according to the invention close to the amplifier. In other words, the counterweight is so heavy, in accordance with the invention, that the center of gravity of the subassembly consisting of the tube 1, microphone 2 and housing 3 is close to the amplifier housing.
The connecting tube is pivoted at said center of gravity in a fork 7 by means of a resilient joint 5, which can be locked by a setscrew 6. As is shown by way of example in FIGS. I and 2, the fork is combined with a base, which consists of a massive cast-iron plate 8 and an elastic interlayer 9, e.g., of rubber.
FIG. 3 shows the assembly according to the invention carried by a stand 10. It is apparent that the overhang of the assembly can be larger in this case than with a simple base as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
A cable guide is secured to the forked bracket 7 and serves to retain the cable 11 extending from the amplifier 3.
