Method for production of a turntable with stroboscope marks

Abstract

A method for production of a turntable which carries stroboscope marks with a metallic surface on the face side of its rim, the metallic surface relative to its dark colored intermediate spaces being elevated. In the edge vicinity of a disc which is made of good deformable metal and which by bending its edge downwardly forms the face side of the rim of the turntable, before the bending of the edge, recesses are stamped-in, which recesses correspond to the intermediate spaces of the stroboscope marks. After the bending and the dark coloring, the disc is lightly cut in the width of the stroboscope marks, which width is chosen somewhat smaller than that of the stamped-in intermediate spaces, in order to achieve a contrast in lightness between the lightly cut stroboscope marks and the deeper intermediate spaces. The turntable comprises a lower part substantially contributing to a flywheel mass, on which lower part there rests a disc as an upper plate, the disc being non-rotatable with respect to the lower part. The disc is made of an easily deformable metal. In the face side of a downwardly extending rim of the disc there are dark colored recesses which form the intermediate spaces of the stroboscope marks.
