Abstract: In a metronome, a toothed wheel and a bell drum each comprise toothings facing each other, by means of which the toothed wheel and the bell drum are in positive engagement with each other in defined angular positions. The toothed wheel and the bell drum are axially displaceable relative to each other on the toothed wheel shaft in order to release their positive engagement and to alter their angular position. When the metronome is in operation, the toothed wheel and the bell drum are kept in mutual positive engagement by releasable holding means.

Abstract: A windable clockwork for metronomes comprises a clockwork frame, a stem rotatably mounted in this frame, a spiral spring connected to this stem, a housing enclosing the spring, and a blocking mechanism which prevents the stem and the spring from reverse motion during the winding. The blocking mechanism comprises two coaxially arranged parts made from a plastic material, namely a locking disc and a spring disc. One of these parts is stationarily arranged on the frame and the other is connected to the stem. The locking disc comprises at its periphery at least one integrally formed stop and the spring disc carries at least one likewise intergrally formed, resilient tongue which in one rotational direction of the stem glides elastically past the stop, but in the opposite rotational direction abuts the stop and blocks the reverse motion of the stem and the spring.

Abstract: A cleaning device for records and pickup style is disclosed, including a cleaning element supporting a stylus brush and having on its lower side a cleaning cover or layer for wiping over the record. A trough-like container is provided into which the cleaning element can be inserted so that its cleaning surface is enclosed. The stylus brush is detachably supported on the cleaning element by means of a fastening device.
