In this stand the removal of a single screw from thebase plate allows of the whole stand being knocked down. Thebase comes off and then the tubular upright may be slipped downover the cord, entirely exposing the working parts. These latterare all mounted upon a strip of insulating fibre which is secured tothe transmitter bracket piece. A good idea of the arrangement ofthe parts may be obtained from Fig. I, which shows a partial sec-tional view, and a side view of the transmitter with those parts in-tegrally connected thereto. Mr. Claussen has assigned his patent tothe American Electric Telephone Company. 822 ELECTRICAL WORLD and ENGINEER. Vol. XLIII, No. iS POCKET MICROBE CATCHER.
