PATENTAMT.PATENT OFFICE.
Die den Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung bildende Umstimmvorrichtung für Zithern wird, im Gegensatz. zu den bisher bekannten derartigen Vorrichtungen, durch den Druck des Ellbogens in Thätigkeit gesetzt, ohne Beanspruchung der Hände des Spielenden.The retuning device forming the subject of the present invention for Zither will, in contrast. to the previously known such devices by the Elbow pressure applied without straining the player's hands.
Zu diesem Zweck ist der Drucksteg a mit seiner Welle b in den Lagern c c1 zwischen den Stegen 1 und ,2 gelagert. Der unter der Zither entlang geführte Hebel d e ist mit einer abnehmbaren Verlängerung h versehen, welche am Ende zu der Ellbogenstützplatte i ausgebildet ist. Zur Führung des Hebels dient der Kloben f, während die Feder g zum Tragen des Hebels bestimmt ist.For this purpose, the pressure web a with its shaft b is mounted in the bearings cc 1 between the webs 1 and 2. The lever de guided under the zither is provided with a detachable extension h , which is formed at the end of the elbow support plate i. The clamp f is used to guide the lever, while the spring g is intended to carry the lever.
Legt man nun beim Spielen den Ellbogen auf die Platte i, so wird der Drucksteg a in Richtung des Pfeiles α bewegt und die Saiten werden auf den Steg 2 niedergedrückt, wodurch die Stimmung geändert wird. Man erreicht durch diese Einrichtung mit 18 Saiten dasselbe, was man sonst mit 27 Saiten erreicht. Man ist in der Lage, sämmtliche Dur- und Mollaccorde zu greifen, ohne dabei die Finger weit ausrecken zu müssen. Durch diesen Vortheil ist die neue Zither für den Anfänger leichter zu handhaben und auch billiger herzustellen als ähnliche Zithern.If you now place your elbow on the plate i while playing , the pressure bar a is moved in the direction of the arrow α and the strings are pressed onto the bar 2, which changes the mood. This device achieves the same thing with 18 strings that is otherwise achieved with 27 strings. You are able to grasp all major and minor chords without having to stretch your fingers far. This advantage makes the new zither easier to handle for the beginner and also cheaper to manufacture than similar zithers.
