Definitions

  • the invention concerns a construction to attach an acoustical microphone to the bell of a wind instrument.
  • the mounting frame on which the microphone is attached has following disadvantages: it gives to much tension on the bell so that it influences the sound vibration of the bell itself, in this construction the microphone is positioned to close to the bell, so that sound coming from the left hand keys will be amplified to little and the low notes will be amplified to much and, this construction will give to much vibration transference from the bell to the microphone, so that you will hear the movements of the keys and other mechanical movements very loud.
  • the design of our invention is to provide a mounting system which does not display these disadvantages. This goal is attained :
  • Figure 1 and figure 2 show the mounting system in perspective and in dismounted condition.
  • Figure 3 and figure 4 show the front and top view of the mounting system.
  • Drawn in dots are the bell of a wind instrument and a microphone.
  • the mounting system consists of one or two rings 1, two or more endless ring shaped elastic elements 2, an external ring 3 to which are attached three or more springy elements 4, and the hollow cylinders 5, corresponding in number to the number of springy elements 4.
  • the rings 1 are-the rings which are attached to the microphone parts. In the drawn design the attachment is made by screwing the cylindrical microphone parts together, which results in the rings being clamped between the microphone parts.
  • the rings are made with excisions in which the endless ring shaped elastic elements 2 are placed.
  • the external ring 3 consists of a cylindrical part on which the springy elements 4 are placed parallel to the rotation axis of the cylinders, in such a way that the hollow cylinders 5 can be shoved over the parts of the springy elements which are attached to the cylindrical part.
  • the hollow cylinders 5 contain a slit parallel to the rotation axis through which the endless ring shaped elastic elements are fixed. These cylinders 5 can be clamped to ring 3 over the attachment of the springy element 4.
  • a springy element 4 consists of a straight part which is attached to the external ring 3, a part of undefined curve and length between the straight part and the free end, and the free end which is shaped in such a way that it fits around the bell of a wind instrument.
  • the free end is covered with a soft material.
  • the springy elements 4 are shaped in such a way that they clamp the bell of the wind instrument when the mounting system is installed.
  • the endless ring shaped elastic elements 2 are of such a length that they have a little pre-tension when put in position.

Claims (6)

  1. Système de montage pour attacher un microphone acoustique au pavillon d'un instrument à vent, consistant en:
    un premier anneau (3) auquel sont attachés au moins trois éléments élastiques allongés (4), conçus de telle façon que dans une extrémité l'on peut assembler aux points d'attachement des cylindres creux avec une fente, tandis que dans l'autre extrémité ils ont une forme telle qui permet de les assembler facilement au pavillon d'un instrument à vent.
    un ou plusieurs autres anneaux (1) attachable(s) à un microphone, pourvus de deux ou plusieurs points d'attachement destinés à fixer des éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis (2).
    des cylindres creux (5), pourvus d'une fente à travers laquelle sont attachés les éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis (2), qui sont ajustés aux points d'attachement des éléments élastiques (4) sur le premier anneau (3).
    deux ou plusieurs éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis (2) fixés aux anneaux attachés au microphone et fixés au premier anneau. Ces éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis fournissent le support élastique entre l'anneau ou les anneaux (1) attaché(s) au microphone et au premier anneau (3).
  2. Système de montage d'un microphone pour des instruments à vent selon l'affirmation numéro 1 ayant comme caractéristique que le microphone est attaché au moyen d'élastiques.
  3. Système de montage d'un microphone pour des instruments à vent selon l'affirmation numéro 1 ayant comme caractéristique que les éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis sont interchangeables sans risque de fendre les éléments élastiques à la forme d'anneaux infinis.
  4. Système de montage d'un microphone pour des instruments à vent selon l'affirmation numéro 1 ayant comme caractéristique que l'attachement au pavillon de l'instrument à vent se réalise tout en serrant les éléments élastiques, lesquels se serrent avec une force telle que le système de montage pour le microphone peut être facilement attaché et détaché et qu'il se détache quand on l'étend mécaniquement.
  5. Système de montage d'un microphone pour des instruments à vent selon l'affirmation numéro 1 ayant comme caractéristique que les parties des élément élastiques qui sont en contact avec le pavillon de l'instrument à vent sont conçus de telle façon et possèdent une élasticité telle à la surface en contact avec l'instrument que tout dommage à l'instrument est exclu.
  6. Système de montage d'un microphone pour des instruments à vent selon l'affirmation numéro 1 ayant comme caractéristique que le système de montage pour le microphone a une position stable par rapport au pavillon de l'instrument à vent.
