 EMI1.1 
 



   Die bisher in Verwendung stehenden Stimmecbaniken (Fig. 1) bestanden aus der Schnecke s und dem Wurmrad   to,   mit welcher Einrichtung jedoch nur ein Feinstimmen 
 EMI1.2 
 und Zither usw., mit welcher sowohl ein präzises   Foinstimmon,   als auch eine schnelle, davon   unabhängige   Drehung des   Stimmwirbels     G erzielt werden soll.   Die Stimmechanik besteht aus dem die Saite tragenden Stimmwirbel G, der am unteren Ende (Fig. 4 und 6) ein Sperrad p trägt (Fig. 3 für Zither). In dieses greift eine auf der Scheibe q des 
 EMI1.3 
 befestigt und greift in die Schnecke s des Feinstimmwirbels F.

   Es kann durch Drehen des   Stimmwirbels G ein schnelles Saitenspannen   erreicht werden, ohne dass sich die Feinstimmechanik mitbewegt.

   The tuning systems previously in use (Fig. 1) consisted of the worm s and the worm wheel to, with which device, however, only fine tuning
 EMI1.2
 and zither, etc., with which both a precise voice tuning and a fast, independent rotation of the tuning peg G are to be achieved. The tuning mechanism consists of the tuning peg G which carries the string and which has a ratchet wheel p at the lower end (Fig. 4 and 6) (Fig. 3 for zither). In this one engages on the disk q des
 EMI1.3
 attaches and engages in the worm s of the fine tuning peg F.

   By turning the tuning pin G, the strings can be tightened quickly without the fine tuning mechanism moving.

Claims

PATENT. CLAIM : Mechanical tuning pegs or tuning mechanisms for zither, violin, etc. Like. String instruments, in which the tuning is achieved in a known manner by worm and worm wheel, characterized in that the vertebra at the lower end carries a spur wheel, in which a pawl engages, which is fixed on a disk attached to the worm wheel, so that on the one hand through the engaging pawl prevents the vertebra from receding, while on the other hand the vertebra is also independent of the fine tuning device for the purpose of faster string winding with the tuning key in the zither and by hand in the violin and the like. Like. String instruments can be rotated easily. EMI1.4 ** WARNING ** End of CLMS field may overlap beginning of DESC **.
