The Pathé Actuelle machines we usually see on this forum are the American ones with the conical "Diffusor".
Here is a Pathé Actuelle soundbox clearly made to fit a conventional tonearm.
It has "Reg.US Pat.Off." behind the diaphragm, but is it American or European made?
Did Pathé make conventional machines equipped with this soundbox? I have never seen one.
