In a record stack holder and dispenser the combination of a spindle (1) having a horizontal shoulder (2) for engaging the margin of a record (14) to be supported, a spindle lever for moving said record edgewise off the shoulder, an adapter casing (8) embracing said spindle and exposing said shoulder, said casing being adapted to be embraced by one or more records (14, 15, 16) to be supported and dispensed, a bolt (12) mounted in the casing on the opposite side of the casing from the spindle shoulder, said bolt having a horizontally disposed record supporting surface facing upwardly, said bolt being movable horizontally to be projected out of the casing to provide support for the margin of a record (14), or retracted inside the casing to withdraw support from a record engaging the same, a plunger (21) disposed in the casing above the bolt (12) and means (19) connecting the plunger (21) and the bolt (12) whereby the movement of a record (14) edgewise off the spindle shoulder (2) transmits motion to the plunger inwardly of the casing to withdraw the bolt (12) from under the engaged margin of said record (14).Дў. The invention provides an adapter for a 78 rpm record player to permit the stacking and automatic playing of 45 rpm records without alteration other than the application of the present adapter to the standard or any preferred record player.ДЎ.

Thereby the record is released at the two diametrical points where it was supported at the bottom of the stack. The second class lever which is operated by the movement of the record being pushed off of the spindle shoulder permits withdrawal movement of the bolt in releasing the rear edge of the record itself. The bodily horizontal movement of the record, operating as a mechanical link, pulls against the short arm of a second class lever pivoted at its upper end in the adapter and having its lower end, which represents the long arm of the second class lever, engaging the retractable sliding bolt to pull it from beneath the adjacent edge of the lowermost record of the stack thereby the 45 rpm record is pushed off the edge of the spindle shoulder and at the same time is used as an operating link to withdraw the bolt from beneath the rear edge of the lowermost record.

When the pushoff lever is automatically actuated in the normal record dropping stage of the record player-changer cycle, the upper end of the spindle lever engages the interior wall of the hole of the lowermost 45 rpm record and pushes it towards and off the edge of the shoulder on the spindle. The adapter contains a horizontally disposed sliding bolt which normally projects from the rear of the adapter-that is, from the side opposite the location of the 78 rpm pushoff lever. The present invention provides a 45 rpm record stacking and dispensing adapter for stacking 45 rpm records and feeding them by operation of a 78 rpm spindle, the adapter being readily applied by slipping it over the top of the 78 rpm spindle down to a position to reveal the shoulder of the 78 rpm spindle.
