Abstract

A system including a phonograph record implement having a phonograph record with a plurality of grooves operable for recording audio data. A record player device is configured to read the audio data contents of said phonograph record implement. A wheel appliance moves or rotates on said phonograph record implement to produce an audio signal and a needle appliance reads or translates a plurality of grooves to an audio signal as the record player device moves around the stationary phonograph record. A speed control switch is operable for selecting at least one preset speed from a plurality of varying preset speeds for said record player device to operate. A wireless transmitter, which transmits the audio signal to an external receiver, which receives the audio signal produced from said stationary phonograph record for listening remotely.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

a first portion comprising:
a stationary phonograph record implement, in which said phonograph record implement comprises a phonograph record with at least a plurality of grooves operable for storing audio data;
a record player device, wherein said record player device is configured to read said audio data of said phonograph record implement, said record player device comprising:
a wheel configured to move or rotate on said stationary phonograph record implement, wherein the wheel is located at a rear portion of said record player device, and wherein no wheels are located at an opposite, front portion, of said record player device;
a motor device configured to generally spin or rotate said wheel;
a switch gadget coupled to said motor device, wherein said switch gadget comprises a motor speed control switch configured to change a speed of said motor device;
a needle appliance coupled to a pre-amplifier, wherein said needle appliance comprises at least a diamond tipped stylus, and wherein said needle appliance is configured to read or translate said plurality of grooves of said phonograph record to an audio signal, wherein said needle appliance is located at said front portion of said record player device, and wherein no other component located at said front portion of said record player device makes contact with said stationary phonograph record implement other than said needle appliance;
a first speaker coupled to said pre-amplifier, wherein said first speaker is configured to project sound from a forward-facing side of said record player device, wherein said pre-amplifier is coupled to said needle appliance, and wherein said pre-amplifier is configured to amplify said audio signal and route said amplified audio signal;
and
a wireless switch configured to activate a wireless transmitter to wirelessly transmit said amplified audio signal to an external receiver;
and
a second portion comprising:
said external receiver, wherein said external receiver is configured to receive said transmitted amplified audio signal;
and
a second speaker coupled to said external receiver, wherein said second speaker is configured to output said audio signal remotely.
