Record Type: concept
cylinder phonographs (phonographs) (phonographs (audio equipment), audio players, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Early instruments of the type invented by Thomas Alva Edison in 1877, that record and play back sounds using rotating grooved cylinders covered with tinfoil, later made of wax. Although Edison recognized that grooves could also be made on a rotating disc, he concentrated his efforts on cylinders, since the groove on the outside of a rotating cylinder provided a constant velocity to the stylus in the groove. In 1886 vertically modulated engraved recordings using wax coated cylinders were patented by Chichester Bell and Charles Sumner Tainter. Rotating discs were employed in "gramophones," invented in the 1890s.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Apparaten die geluid reproduceren door middel van een trillende naald die de groef volgt van een draaiende rol, gewoonlijk van was. 
German ..... Frühes Gerät in der Bauart, die 1877 von Thomas Alva Edison erfunden wurde, das Töne aufnimmt und wiedergibt und dabei einen rotierenden, gerillten Zylinder nutzt, der mit Zinnfolie überzogen ist; später war er aus Wachs. Obgleich Edison erkannte, dass Rillen auch auf einer sich drehenden Scheibe ausgeführt werden konnten, konzentrierte er seine Bemühungen auf Zylinder, da die Rille an der Außenseite eines sich drehenden Zylinders eine konstante Geschwindigkeit für den Taster in der Rille bot. 1886 patentierten Chichester Bell und Charles Sumner Tainter vertikal modulierte, gravierte Tonaufnahmen unter Verwendung von mit Wachs überzogenen Zylindern. Rotierende Scheiben wurden in den 1890er-Jahren entwickelt und beim "Grammofon" verwendet.
