Definitions
- the invention relates to a head piece for a transverse flute with the features of the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a transverse flute with such a head piece.
- a transverse flute is usually constructed in such a way that it is constructed as a whole as a straight, elongated component. To play the flute, it is held in an approximately horizontal orientation.
- the headpiece of the transverse flute is at the level of the flutist's lips so that he can blow across the blowing hole in the area of the headpiece.
- the tube extends from there in the horizontal direction, usually to the right side of the flautist. Accordingly, the flutist has to stretch both arms to the right in order to be able to play the flute.
- the position of the flute with such a headjoint corresponds to the position of a normal flute. I. E. this is also held in an approximately horizontal orientation.
- a transverse flute which has an angled head piece.
- the head piece is made up of several straight parts, which are each connected to one another at an angle. The two outermost parts form an angle in the range from 115 to 120 °.
- the result is an angled shape.
- the section with the blow hole is held in a horizontal direction.
- the tube of the transverse flute extends in an extension of this section on the right side of the flutist diagonally down to the right. Accordingly, the flutist has to stretch both arms to the right in order to be able to play the flute.
- a similar solution is known from document US 2019/0180724 A1.
- a transverse flute is known from the document CH-PS 1452, which can be held in the middle in front of the body, oriented essentially in the vertical direction.
- the head piece is made up of three sections: a first curved section, which is connected to the tube of the transverse flute and bent by 90 °, a second curved section, connected to the first curved section and bent by 180 °, and a third straight section Section at which the blow hole is provided and which is arranged as an extension of the second section.
- the object of the invention is to further develop a transverse flute in such a way that it can be played in a relaxed posture and / or that it is optimized with regard to the sound field generated.
- the object according to the invention is achieved by a head piece for a transverse flute with the features of independent claim 1. Furthermore, the object according to the invention is achieved by a transverse flute with the features of independent claim 12.
- the invention is based on the knowledge that in the case of the solutions known from the prior art, either a one-sided body posture, a complex hand posture and / or a restricted sound quality must be accepted.
- the right-sided posture can on the one hand lead to postural damage and on the other hand to a restricted air volume, since the respiratory organs are constricted.
- the generated sound field is also oriented to the right.
- the transverse flute known from document CH-PS 1452, it can be held in the middle in front of the body, essentially oriented vertically.
- this requires an elaborately shaped head piece with strong curvatures, which is not only complex to manufacture, but with which the sound quality is also limited due to the strong curvatures.
- a head piece for a transverse flute is therefore shaped in such a way that a flutist can assume a straight posture and at the same time the sound quality can be maintained or even improved.
- a head piece according to the invention for a transverse flute has two legs which are arranged at an acute angle to one another.
- the head piece is essentially L-shaped, the two legs not being oriented at the right angle to one another, but rather enclosing an acute angle.
- the vent hole in particular can be provided in the area of the first leg, while the second leg can be connected to the tube of the transverse flute. If such a head piece is connected to a tube of a transverse flute, the tube is connected as an extension of the second leg.
- the first leg with the blow hole is held in a substantially horizontal orientation.
- the flute Due to the acute angle between the first leg and the second leg, the flute runs beginning with the second leg - in relation to the vertical direction in the middle of the body - from one side to the other, e.g. B. from top left to bottom right.
- z. B. the left hand on the upper, located on the left section of the flute, while the right hand grips the lower, located on the right section of the flute.
- a sound field can be generated which is essentially symmetrical on both sides.
- I. E. the flutist himself can perceive the sound with both ears in the same way.
- the angle between the two legs is preferably chosen so that the flutist can adopt a position that is as symmetrical as possible. This depends in particular on the length of the legs, but also on the dimensions of the other parts of the flute for which the head joint according to the invention is to be used.
- the angle between the two legs is a value in the range from 50 to 80 ° and preferably in the range from 70 to 75 °. Specifically, the value can be 72 °.
- these can, for. B. be connected to each other by an elbow.
- these are preferably connected to one another by an arcuate transition curve, with which a transition from the first leg to the second leg can be achieved without corners or edges.
- This has a particularly positive effect on the air column that can be generated and thus the sound quality.
- the radius of curvature of the transition curve is at least 2 cm. In this way, a smooth transition from the first leg to the second leg and thus an air column that is as undisturbed as possible can be achieved. At the same time, the usual overall length of a transverse flute is not exceeded.
- the first leg, the transition bend and / or the second leg can optionally be designed in one piece or as separate components. When designed as separate components, these can in particular be detachably connected to one another. According to one embodiment, at least the first leg and the transition curve are designed as separate components.
- an already existing straight head piece as is known according to the prior art, can be used and - to form a head piece according to the invention - with it the transition bend and the second leg formed thereon or arranged thereon. A simple change between a straight head piece and a head piece according to the invention is thus possible.
- the first and / or second leg for releasable connection to the transition bend can have a connecting section which, for connection to the transition bend, can be inserted into an end-side receiving section of the transition bend and is held in this with a force fit. If the receiving section and the connecting section each have a circular cross-section with respect to one another, a degree of freedom with regard to the alignment of the first leg to the transition bend and / or the transition bend to the second leg can be realized. Specifically, the first and / or second leg can then be mounted on the transition bend in any orientation in the circumferential direction of the circular ring shape. In this way, a flautist can flexibly adjust the orientation that suits him.
- the first leg and the second leg and the transition curve extend in a common plane.
- a transverse flute with a mouthpiece according to the invention extends essentially in one plane.
- the head piece can be designed so that the first leg, the second leg and the transition curve do not lie in one plane, but that the two legs are arranged in two spatial directions at an angle to one another, as is e.g. B. from the document US 2019/0180724 A1 is known.
- the blow hole is formed in the area of the first leg.
- a mouth hole plate which forms the blow hole, is preferably arranged on the first leg.
- the lip plate with the blow hole can also be formed from a separate component which is connected to the first leg, e.g. B. on this or plugged into this, is.
- the second leg is designed in such a way that it can be connected to the tube of the transverse flute.
- a connecting section is provided on the second leg for this purpose. This can in particular be designed in such a way that the connecting section can be inserted into the tube and connected to it in a force-locking manner.
- the head piece can be connected to the tube in any orientation in the circumferential direction of the circular ring shape. In this way, a flautist can flexibly adjust the orientation that suits him.
- the head piece according to the invention can in principle be made of any material that has sufficient strength.
- the materials customary for transverse flutes, such as wood, metal (including precious metals), an alloy or carbon, are preferably used. Several materials can also be combined.
- the head piece can be made of gold, silver, titanium, brass, aluminum or grenadilla.
- the object according to the invention is achieved by a transverse flute with a head piece according to the invention.
- At least one support element is preferably arranged on the tube of the transverse flute.
- This support element tends to protrude from the tube transversely to the longitudinal direction and is designed in particular so that the flute can be supported over it with the thumb of the right hand.
- two support elements can be provided at different heights so that the flute can be held steadily with both hands when playing.
- the at least one support element can be arranged adjustable and / or removable along the tube and / or in the circumferential direction of the tube. For example, you can remove the support element if you do not want to use the flute with the head piece according to the invention, but with a straight head piece known from the prior art. If changes back to the head piece according to the invention, the support element can be attached again to the desired position on the tube.
- Figure 1 a head piece according to the invention
- FIG. 2 a transverse flute with a head joint according to the invention.
- Figure 1 shows a headpiece 1 according to the invention for a transverse flute.
- the head piece 1 has a first leg 2 and a second leg 3, which are connected to one another by an arcuate transition bend 4.
- the first leg 2 is designed as a substantially straight, tubular element. At one end 5 of the first leg 2 is closed, while at its other end 6 it is designed as an open tube. In the area in between, a mouth plate 7 with a blow hole 8 is arranged on the first leg 2.
- the second leg 3 is - similar to the first leg 2 - designed as a substantially straight, tubular element.
- the second leg 3 is designed to be open towards its two ends 9, 10.
- the second leg 3 has a connecting section 11 which can be inserted into a tube of a transverse flute (not shown in FIG. 1).
- the two legs 2 and 3 are connected to one another by the transition bend 4.
- the transition bend 4 is also designed as a tubular element, which, however - unlike the legs 2 and 3 - is not straight, but rather curved. In this way it is achieved that the two legs 2 and 3 are arranged at an angle 12 to one another.
- the angle 12 enclosed by the legs 2 and 3 is approximately 72 °.
- other angles are also possible, e.g. B. between 50 and 80 °.
- the transition curve 4 is rounded. I. E. corners and edges that could impair the formation of an air column for sound generation are avoided. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the radius of curvature of the transition curve 4 is in the range of a few cm.
- the first leg 2 has a connecting section 13 with a circular cross-section, the connecting section 13 being received in a receiving section 14 which is formed by the transition bend 4 and which also has a circular cross-section.
- the connecting portion 13 as well as the receiving section 14 are designed with circular cross-sections that are matched to one another, the orientation of the first leg 2 relative to the transition bend 4 can be freely adjusted in the circumferential direction. Since the connection between the first leg 2 and the transition bend 4 is detachable, the first leg 2 can optionally also be used as a classic, straight head piece, as is known from the prior art.
- the second leg 3 is formed in one piece with the transition bend 4.
- these can also be designed as separate components which, for. B. can be connected to each other by a plug connection.
- the inside diameters and cross-sections of the legs 2 and 3 and the transition bend 4 are matched to one another in such a way that a channel for the air flow without edges or cracks results in the interior of the head piece 1.
- the inside diameter is constant in the embodiment shown in Figure 1, whereby a good sound quality can be achieved.
- the connecting section 11 is preferably matched to the transverse flute for which the headpiece 1 is to be used, in order to achieve a transition that is as free of jumps and edges as possible.
- the two legs 2 and 3 and the transition curve 4 extend in a plane 15 which corresponds to the plane of the paper. Unlike shown in Figure 1, z. B. the transition curve can also be rotated out of the plane of the paper, which would result in a three-dimensional design of the head piece.
- a transverse flute 16 with the head piece 1 is shown in FIG.
- the connection of the head piece 1 to a tube 17 of the transverse flute 16 takes place through the third leg 3 and more precisely by receiving the connecting section 11 in a correspondingly designed receiving section of the tube 17.
- the tube 17, the foot piece 19 and the flap mechanism 20 can be used as from the Prior art be known.
- the design of the head piece 1 according to the invention enables the transverse flute 16 to be held in a substantially symmetrical manner in relation to a vertical central axis 18.
- the first leg 2 is oriented essentially parallel to the flutist's lips in the horizontal direction.
- the transition curve 4 is located - as seen from the flautist - to the left of the central axis 18. From there, the transverse flute 16 extends from the top left to the bottom right. With his left hand, the flutist grasps the flute 16 in the upper section, which is located near the central axis 18 on the left side. With his right hand, the flutist grips the flute 16 in the lower section, which is closer to the central axis 18 on the right side. Overall, this results in a balanced posture, in which the flutist keeps both arms oriented in the direction of the central axis 18, but does not have to reach over this or at least not significantly.
- the flute sound radiates evenly forwards into any concert hall or practice room.
- the tone vibrations are directed towards the right side of the room through the tube, which is held to the right.
- the sound can be heard much quieter on the left.
- the sound Due to the almost vertical alignment achieved with the headpiece 2 according to the invention, the sound is not only directed evenly into the hall, which is more comfortable for listeners. Rather, the result is a balanced sound, especially for the flutist himself.
