Description

Mouthpiece Collar

This creation is a technical field of the mouthpiece structure of wind instruments such as saxophone or clarinet, especially a mouthpiece collar that can greatly reduce the rough edges of the timbre, making the whole timbre warmer, smoother and thicker, and can make the notes more clear, rich and smooth.

The current common mouthpiece collars, as shown in Taiwan Publication No. 278695 and Patent No. I723597, when they are installed and fixed on the mouthpiece, there will be parts of hard material (such as metal) in direct contact with the mouthpiece or reed. Therefore, when playing, these hard materials that are in contact with the mouthpiece or reed will expand the resonance effect and generate unnecessary vibration, which will make the tone very sharp and bright. It will also make the tone rough and not smooth enough. And it will make the note grains not clear enough and not smooth enough.

In view of this, the author of this work developed and designed this creation based on the above-mentioned problems, in-depth conception, and active research and improvement.

The main purpose of this creation is to solve the problems of the traditional mouthpiece collar that some hard materials (such as metal) are in direct contact with the mouthpiece or reed, resulting in the sound being played too sharp, bright, too rough and not smooth enough.

This invention provides a mouthpiece tie ring, which is mainly used for fixing a reed bundle on a mouthpiece. The mouthpiece tie ring includes two ends of rods, a pressing piece, two tuning pieces and a tightening piece. Wherein, the two ends of the rods are arranged in parallel and spaced apart on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the mouthpiece opposite to the reed, and the two ends of the rods are provided with a plurality of rope holes penetrating up and down at intervals. The pressing piece is connected to the two ends of the rods and can be used to adjust the distance between the two ends of the rods. The two tuning pieces are located on the left and right opposite outer sides of the outer peripheral surface of the mouthpiece and are respectively provided with at least one perforation. The tightening member is threaded through the plurality of rope holes of the two-end rods and the perforations of the two tuning pieces by using a non-retractable rope, so that the ropes are alternately wound up and down to form a C-shaped ring shape, so as to fix the reed on the mouthpiece, and isolate the two-end rods, the pressing piece and the two tuning pieces from directly contacting the mouthpiece and the reed.

The mouthpiece tie provided by this creation, when it is tied behind the mouthpiece, only the soft rope will touch the mouthpiece and the reed, and the two ends of the rod, the pressing piece and the two-tuning piece of the harder material will not touch the structure design of the mouthpiece and the reed, so that the rope can effectively absorb unnecessary vibration when playing, and then greatly shrink the rough edge of the tone, making the whole tone more warm, smooth and thick The note particles are clearer, richer and smoother; moreover, using the structural design of the upper and lower intervals of each loop of the tightening member to form the tightening member, there is an appropriate gap between the mouthpiece and the reed and the tightening member without forming a large area of attachment, so the vibration will not be completely absorbed, so the note particles can be relatively tighter, concentrated, richer and smoother.

As mentioned above, there are two sets of connecting holes transversely penetrating through the center of the rods at both ends. The urging member includes a screw rod and a nut. One end of the screw rod has a head with a larger outer diameter, and the other end has an external thread section. On the rod, there is a screw hole inside the nut system for the screw locking of the external thread section of the screw rod, so that one end of the nut is against the end rod on the other side. In this way, the distance between the two rods can be adjusted through the relative screw locking between the nut and the screw rod. Moreover, the end of the screw rod will be completely screwed into the nut without protruding from the outer end of the nut, so the overall system is more beautiful, and the user can be prevented from being cut by the sharp end of the screw rod, and it is safer to use the upper system.

On the other hand, two grooves with larger outer diameters are respectively formed at the opposite outer ends of the two groups of connecting holes, so that the bottom surfaces of the grooves are respectively pressed by the head of the screw rod and the end of the nut. This enables the head of the screw rod and one end of the nut to have a larger abutment area with the two grooves. Therefore, after the pressing member is screw-locked on the two ends of the rod, the larger frictional force can be generated by these larger abutment areas, so as to prevent the nut from being easily withdrawn from the screw rod, thereby having better combination firmness.

Please refer to shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 6, it is to show that the mouthpiece beam collar described in this creation is mainly used for setting and fixing a reed 51 on a mouthpiece 50, and the mouthpiece beam circle includes two ends rods 10, A pressing piece 20 , two tuning pieces 30 and a tightening piece 40 . in:

The two-end rods 10 are set on the opposite side of the reed 51 on the outer peripheral surface of the blowing nozzle 50 at intervals of left and right. The two-end rods 10 are provided with a plurality of corresponding rope holes 11 that penetrate up and down at intervals. The two rope holes 11 corresponding to the two ends of one end rod 10 are provided with two fixing screw holes 12 that communicate with it. The outer ends are respectively formed with two grooves 15 with larger outer diameters.

The pressing member 20 is connected to the two ends of the rods 10 and can be used for adjusting the distance between the two ends of the rods 10 . The pressing member 20 includes a screw 21 and a nut 22 . One end of the screw rod 21 has a head 210 with a larger outer diameter, and the other end has an external thread section 211, and the screw rod 21 is inserted in the two groups of connecting holes 14, and the head 210 is pressed against the groove bottom surface of the groove 15 of the end rod 10 on one side. The nut 22 is internally provided with a screw hole 220 for the threaded section 211 of the screw rod 21 to be screwed, so that one end of the nut 22 is against the bottom surface of the groove 15 of the end rod 10 on the other side.

The two tuning pieces 30 are located on the left and right sides of the outer peripheral surface of the mouthpiece 50 and are respectively provided with at least one perforation 31 . In this embodiment, the two tuning pieces 30 are respectively provided with two through holes 31 .

A tightening member 40 is threaded through the plurality of rope holes 11 of the two-end rods 10 and the perforations 31 of the two tuning pieces 30 by using a non-stretchable rope 41, so that the ropes 41 are alternately wound up and down to form a C-shaped ring, so that the reed 51 is fixed on the mouthpiece 50, and the two-end rods 10, the pressing piece 20 and the two tuning pieces 30 are isolated from touching the mouthpiece 5 0, and the tightening member 40 can be adjusted by controlling the distance between the two ends of the rod 10 through the urging member 20 Set the tightness of the beam.

In this invention, the rods at both ends 10, the pressing member 20 and the two tuning pieces 30 are made of metal. (Please refer to the direction of the drawing) One end of the rope 41 is passed through the first rope hole 11 of the end rod 10 on the left side, and then screwed and fixed by the corresponding fixing bolt 13, then passes downwards from outside to inside through the hole 31 of the tuning piece 30 on the left side, then winds around the outside of the reed 51, then passes upwards from outside to inside through the hole 31 of the tuning piece 30 on the right side, and then passes through the first hole 31 of the right side rod 10 from top to bottom The rope hole 11 thus forms the first loop of the tightening member 40 . Then pass through the perforation 31 of the tuning piece 30 on the right side downwards from the outside to the inside, then go around the reed 51 outside, then pass through the perforation 31 of the tuning piece 30 on the left side from the outside to the inside, and pass through the second rope hole 11 of the end rod 10 on the left side from top to bottom, so that the second loop of the tightening member 40 is formed. Then continue to wind left and right according to the aforementioned method to form the third ring, the fourth ring...etc., until finally the other end of the rope 41 is passed through the last rope hole 11 of the end rod 10 on the left side, and then screwed and fixed by the corresponding fixing bolt 13, so that the adjacent rings are staggered up and down. The two tuning pieces 30 are isolated from contacting the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51 .

Because the mouthpiece beam described in this creation has the above-mentioned special structural design, it has many advantages as follows:

1. The mouthpiece bundle of this creation is set behind the mouthpiece 50, so that only the soft rope 41 will touch the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51, and the two ends of the rod 10, the pressing piece 20 and the two tuning pieces 30 made of a harder material will not be connected to the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51, so the rope 41 can effectively absorb unnecessary vibration when playing, and then greatly reduce the rough edges of the tone. Condensed, the whole tone becomes warmer, smoother and thicker, and the grains of notes are clearer, richer and smoother.

2. The rope 41 formed by the tightening member 40 forms an adjacent loop in a staggered upper and lower interval, so there is an appropriate gap between the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51 and the tightening member 40 without forming a large area of attachment, so the vibration will not be completely absorbed, so relatively, the notes can be played more tightly, concentrated, rich and smooth.

3. The urging member 20 is composed of the screw 21 and the nut 22. The end of the screw 21 is completely screwed into the nut 22 without protruding from the outer end of the nut 22. Therefore, the overall system is more beautiful, and the user can be prevented from being cut by the sharp end of the screw 21. It is safer to use the top.

4. The head 210 of the screw 21 and the bottom surface of the groove 15 of the end rod 10 on one side have a larger contact area, and one end of the nut 22 and the bottom surface of the groove 15 of the end rod 10 on the other side also have a larger contact area. Therefore, after the pressing member 20 is screw-locked on the two ends of the rod 10, a larger friction force can be generated by these larger contact areas, so as to prevent the nut 22 and the screw rod 21 from easily retreating. , so it can be combined more firmly.

In addition, the timbre can also be controlled by adjusting the distance between the two tuning pieces 30, for example: when the distance between the two tuning pieces 30 is large, the tether 41 between them will be longer, so the vibration of the reed 51 can be absorbed more, and the tone color can be warmer, smoother and thicker; In turn, the tone can be relatively clear.

The mouthpiece beam provided by this creation can be borrowed when it is set on the mouthpiece 50. Only the softer tether 41 will touch the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51, while the harder material of the two end rods 10, the pressing piece 20 and the two tuning pieces 30 will not touch the structural design of the mouthpiece 50 and the reed 51, so that the tether 41 can effectively absorb unnecessary vibration when playing, and thus greatly restrain the rough edges of the tone, making the whole tone warmer, smoother and thicker, and making the notes more granular Clear, rich and smooth; and, utilizing the structural design of the upper and lower intervals of the ropes 41 that form the loops of the tightening member 40, the mouthpiece 50, the reed 51 and the tightening member 40 can have an appropriate gap without forming a large area of attachment, so the vibration will not be completely absorbed, so the notes can be relatively tighter, concentrated, richer and smoother.

Please refer to FIG. 7 , which is another embodiment of the mouthpiece collar described in this invention. Its structure is substantially the same as the above-mentioned embodiment. The difference is that the end rod 10 on the right side is not provided with the groove 15, and the pressing member 20 includes a gasket 23 for the screw rod 21 to pass through, and is located between the end rod 10 on the right side and the nut 22. The spacer 23 can increase the relative contact area with the end rod 10 on the right side and the nut 22 to improve the friction between them. , and then can prevent the nut 22 from being easily unscrewed from the screw 21, so it can be combined firmly.
