Description
La présente invention concerne un étui pour instrument de musique et plus particulièrement pour un violoncelle ou une contrebasseThe present invention relates to a case for a musical instrument and more particularly for a cello or a double bass
On sait qu'il est nécessaire de protéger un instrument de musique pendant son transport afin d'éviter sa détérioration lors de chocs. Pour obtenir une protection maximum, on a considéré jusqu'à présent qu'il était préférable d'avoir un étui entièrement rigide comportant généralement deux éléments en forme de coque raccordés l'un à l'autre sur un côté par une ou plusieurs articulations et sur un côté opposé des moyens de fermeture déverrouillables, ces deux éléments comportant des bords venant en appui l'un contre l'autre sur tout leur pourtour lors de la fermeture de l'étui. Un tel étui est divulgué par le document GB-A-348203.We know that it is necessary to protect a musical instrument during its transport in order to avoid its deterioration during shocks. To obtain maximum protection, it has been considered until now that it was preferable to have a completely rigid case generally comprising two shell-shaped elements connected to one another on one side by one or more joints and on an opposite side of the unlockable closure means, these two elements having edges abutting one against the other over their entire periphery when the case is closed. Such a case is disclosed in document GB-A-348203.
Toutefois, en particulier dans le cas des violoncelles, on a constaté à plusieurs reprises qu'en dépit de cette protection et malgré la disposition de moyens de maintien du violoncelle à l'intérieur de l'étui, il arrivait parfois qu'un choc sur l'étui provoque la rupture de l'instrument de musique au niveau du raccordement du manche à la caisse.However, in particular in the case of cellos, it has been noted on several occasions that despite this protection and despite the arrangement of means for holding the cello inside the case, it sometimes happened that a shock on the case causes the musical instrument to break at the connection of the handle to the body.
Un but de la présente invention est de proposer un étui pour instrument de musique évitant une détérioration de l'instrument en cas de choc.An object of the present invention is to provide a case for a musical instrument preventing damage to the instrument in the event of an impact.
En vue de la réalisation de ce but, on propose selon l'invention un étui pour instrument de musique comportant deux éléments raccordés l'un à l'autre par des moyens de liaison au moins en partie déverrouillables, ces deux éléments comportant des bords venant en regard lors de la fermeture de l'étui et des moyens de maintien de l'instrument lors de la fermeture de l'étui dans lequel, sur une partie au moins de leurs bords en regard, les deux éléments sont espacés l'un de l'autre après fermeture de l'étui, afin qu'ils gardent une certaine souplesse de sorte que même si l'instrument n'est pas tout à fait bien placé dans l'étui avant sa fermeture, les éléments se déforment légèrement au moment de la fermeture et que les moyens de maintien soient seulement faiblement comprimés par la fermeture, ce qui leur permet d'absorber un choc sur l'étui sans répercuter celui-ci sur l'instrument.In order to achieve this goal, there is provided according to the invention a case for a musical instrument comprising two elements connected to each other by connecting means at least partially unlockable, these two elements having edges coming opposite when closing the case and means for holding the instrument when closing the case in which, on at least part of their facing edges, the two elements are spaced from each other after closing the case, so that they keep a certain flexibility so that even if the instrument is not quite well placed in the case before closing, the elements are slightly deformed at the time of closure and that the holding means are only slightly compressed by the closure, which allows them to absorb a shock on the case without passing it on the instrument.
Après une étude approfondie des étuis existants, l'inventeur pense en effet que la rupture du manche en cas de choc pourrait provenir d'un mauvais placement de l'instrument à l'intérieur de l'étui, de sorte que lors de la fermeture les moyens de maintien seraient eux-mêmes comprimés contre l'instrument et transmettraient instantanément tout choc externe auquel l'étui est soumis. Au contraire, en raison de l'espacement existant entre les bords des éléments sur une partie de leur pourtour, les éléments de l'étui selon l'invention gardent une certaine souplesse de sorte que même si l'instrument n'est pas tout à fait bien placé dans l'étui avant sa fermeture, les éléments se déforment légèrement au moment de la fermeture et les moyens de maintien sont seulement faiblement comprimés par la fermeture, ce qui leur permet d'absorber un choc sur l'étui sans répercuter celui-ci sur l'instrument, et dans le cas d'un violoncelle, sans provoquer une rupture du manche ou de la volute.After an in-depth study of existing cases, the inventor indeed believes that the rupture of the handle in the event of an impact could result from improper placement of the instrument inside the case, so that when it is closed the holding means would themselves be compressed against the instrument and would instantly transmit any external shock to which the case is subjected. On the contrary, due to the spacing existing between the edges of the elements on a part of their periphery, the elements of the case according to the invention keep a certain flexibility so that even if the instrument is not completely well placed in the case before it is closed, the elements deform slightly when it is closed and the holding means are only slightly compressed by the closure, which allows them to absorb a shock on the case without passing on that -this on the instrument, and in the case of a cello, without causing the neck or the volute to break.
Selon une version avantageuse de l'invention, au voisinage des moyens de liaison, les bords des deux éléments comprennent des parties en appui l'une contre l'autre. Ainsi, au niveau de la mise en appui des bords, l'étui reste assez rigide pour assurer un maintien convenable de l'instrument.According to an advantageous version of the invention, in the vicinity of the connecting means, the edges of the two elements include parts bearing against one another. Thus, at the edge support, the case remains rigid enough to ensure proper maintenance of the instrument.
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les moyens de maintien de l'instrument comportent des tampons élastiques disposés à l'intérieur de chacun des éléments et prenant appui sur l'instrument de part et d'autre de celui-ci lors de la fermeture de l'étui. Ainsi l'instrument ne se trouve pas plaqué de façon rigide contre une des parois de l'étui et la protection assurée est uniforme quel que soit le côté sur lequel un choc est appliqué à l'étui.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the means for holding the instrument comprise elastic pads arranged inside each of the elements and bearing on the instrument on either side of it during closing the case. Thus the instrument is not rigidly pressed against one of the walls of the case and the protection provided is uniform whatever the side on which a shock is applied to the case.
Selon un autre aspect avantageux de l'invention, l'étui comporte une housse en deux parties réunies par une fermeture à glissière comprenant un curseur ayant une trajectoire s'étendant en regard des bords des éléments de l'étui, de préférence les parties de bord espacées et les parties de bord en appui des éléments se raccordent de façon progressive. Ainsi, sur les parties du pourtour où les bords des éléments sont espacés, le curseur se déplace librement dans l'espace compris entre les bords et la manoeuvre de la fermeture à glissière est donc très aisée. De plus, le raccordement progressif des parties de bord espacées aux parties de bord en appui assure un guidage du curseur facilitant sa manoeuvre.According to another advantageous aspect of the invention, the case comprises a cover in two parts joined by a zipper comprising a cursor having a trajectory extending opposite the edges of the elements of the case, preferably the spaced edge parts and the edge parts in support of the elements are connected progressively. Thus, on the parts of the periphery where the edges of the elements are spaced, the cursor moves freely in the space between the edges and the operation of the zipper is therefore very easy. In addition, the progressive connection of the spaced-apart edge portions to the bearing edge portions ensures guidance of the cursor, making it easier to maneuver.
Selon encore un autre aspect avantageux de l'invention, l'un des éléments comporte un fond percé d'une ouverture recouverte d'un capitonnage. Ainsi, l'étui se trouve allégé et, en particulier dans le cas du transport d'un violoncelle, le confort de ce transport se trouve amélioré.According to yet another advantageous aspect of the invention, one of the elements has a bottom pierced with an opening covered with padding. Thus, the case is lightened and, in particular in the case of the transport of a cello, the comfort of this transport is improved.

En référence aux dessins, l'étui pour instrument de musique, et plus particulièrement pour un violoncelle selon l'invention, comporte deux éléments en forme de coque, généralement désignés en 1, raccordés l'un à l'autre par des moyens de liaison comprenant d'un côté des charnières 2 fixées à chacun des éléments et sur un côté opposé un loquet 3 fixé sur l'un des éléments et mobile entre une position déverrouillée représentée sur la figure 1 et une position verrouillée représentée sur la figure 2.With reference to the drawings, the case for a musical instrument, and more particularly for a cello according to the invention, comprises two shell-shaped elements, generally designated at 1, connected to each other by connecting means. comprising on one
Chacun des deux éléments 1 comporte un bord, généralement désigné en 4. Les bords 4 comprennent, entre les charnières 2 et de part et d'autre du loquet 3, au voisinage de celui-ci, des parties de bord 5 qui viennent en appui l'une contre l'autre lors de la fermeture de l'étui. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, les moyens de liaison sont disposés dans la zone médiane de l'étui, les parties de bord 5 en appui l'une contre l'autre sont donc disposées dans cette partie médiane de l'étui et assurent une bonne rigidité de l'ensemble de l'étui lors de la fermeture. Dans les zones extrêmes de l'étui, les bords 4 comportent des parties en retrait 6 qui sont espacées l'une de l'autre lors de la fermeture de l'étui. Les parties de bord en retrait 6 sont raccordées aux parties de bord 5 par des parties incurvées 7 qui assurent un raccordement progressif des parties de bord en retrait 6 avec les parties de bord 5. En regard du loquet 3, l'un des éléments 1 comporte une surface de guidage 8 fixée à cet élément et qui s'étend vers l'autre élément de façon à assurer, de manière classique, un guidage de l'autre élément lors de la fermeture.Each of the two elements 1 has an edge, generally designated at 4. The
A l'intérieur, l'étui comporte de façon classique un capitonnage 9, par exemple en mousse recouverte de tissu, ou simplement en tissu épais. L'étui comporte en outre des moyens de maintien de l'instrument comprenant ici des tampons élastiques 10 disposés d'une part au niveau du manche du violoncelle, entre la zone de l'étui devant recevoir la caisse et la zone de l'étui devant recevoir la volute, et des tampons élastiques de forme légèrement différente pour s'appuyer d'une part sur le fond de la caisse et d'autre part sur les côtés de la table du violoncelle. L'un des tampons élastiques 10 fixé sur l'élément formant le couvercle, et destiné à s'appuyer sur la table du violoncelle, comporte une cavité 11 destinée à recevoir une extrémité de l'archet tandis que l'autre extrémité est maintenue dans l'élément par une languette souple 12. A l'extrémité opposée au manche, l'étui comporte un tampon élastique 13 destiné à maintenir latéralement le violoncelle. Le fond de l'élément de l'étui destiné à recevoir la caisse du violoncelle est percé d'une ouverture 14 recouverte du côté interne par le capitonnage 9 et du côté externe par une housse 15 réalisée en deux parties enveloppant chacune sensiblement l'un des éléments de l'étui et réunies par une fermeture à glissière 16 comprenant un curseur 17 ayant une trajectoire s'étendant en regard des bords des éléments de l'étui.Inside, the case conventionally includes a
Les éléments de l'étui sont réalisés à partir d'un matériau classique tel que de la résine armée de fibre de verre et l'on constate donc que lors de la fermeture, les éléments 1 s'appuient chacun sur l'instrument de part et d'autre de celui-ci par l'intermédiaire des tampons élastiques 10 mais peuvent également se déformer légèrement dans les zones où les parties de bord 6 restent espacées l'une contre l'autre de sorte que les moyens de maintien 10 ne sont pas trop fortement comprimés et gardent donc une certaine élasticité, une rigidité suffisante de l'étui étant cependant assurée par les parties de bord 5 en appui l'une contre l'autre. Lorsque les deux éléments ont été associés au moyen du loquet 3, la housse est elle-même refermée en déplaçant le curseur 17 dans l'espace compris entre les bords espacés 6. Cette manoeuvre est aisée et, lorsque le curseur atteint les parties de bord en appui 5, il est guidé par les profils incurvés 7.The elements of the case are made from a conventional material such as resin reinforced with fiberglass and it is therefore found that when closing, the elements 1 are each supported on the instrument by hand. and other of it by means of the
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, l'ouverture 14 dans la paroi de l'un des éléments de l'étui, coïncide avec le fond de la caisse du violoncelle qui est généralement appliqué sur le dos de la personne transportant l'étui. Ainsi, l'étui porte sur le dos de la personne qui le transporte par une partie souple et le confort du transport est donc amélioré.In the illustrated embodiment, the
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et est susceptible de variantes de réalisation qui apparaîtront à l'homme de métier. En particulier, bien que dans le mode de réalisation illustré les parties de bord espacées correspondent aux zones extrêmes de l'étui, on peut, en fonction de l'instrument auquel est destiné l'étui, prévoir de réaliser ces parties en d'autres endroits du bord.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and is capable of variant embodiments which will appear to those skilled in the art. In particular, although in the illustrated embodiment the spaced edge parts correspond to the end zones of the case, it is possible, depending on the instrument for which the case is intended, to provide for making these parts in other edge locations.
Bien que dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit, l'étanchéité, en particulier au niveau des parties écartées des bords, soit assurée par la housse, on peut prévoir d'autres moyens, par exemple en étendant la surface 8 tout le long du bord d'un élément ou en prévoyant entre les parties 6 des profilés en mousse cellulaire ou en tout matériau très flexible réalisant l'étanchéité sans réaliser un appui rigide des parties de bord 6.Although in the embodiment described, the seal, in particular at the parts spaced from the edges, is ensured by the cover, other means can be provided, for example by extending the
