Abstract
186,209. Compton, J. H. July 25, 1921. Addition to 169,244. Organ manual actions.-The expressive touch action described in the parent Specification is modified by arranging that the hammer-blow, which directly or indirectly moves the contactcarrying member, shall be given by the key itself. The key a has a projection d forming a space adjustable at m in which the end h of the pivoted contact-carrying member e moves with a certain amount of play. Depression of the key a with more or less force strikes up the member e to a greater or less extent, the contact o contacting with a greater or less number of spring contacts r, r' &c., and sounding a greater or less number of pipes. A spring t returns the key, and the projection d returns member e, to their normal positions. The forked projection may be formed on the member e, the end of the key engaging within the fork.
