Abstract

The mediator (1) has one or more active parts (2) and can be formed by a composite material which is itself magnetic or equipped with magnets. The mediator can be formed of a sheet of plastics (4) with on one or two faces a magnetic sheet material (3). A magnet can be incorporated in the body of the mediator which can have surfaces which are smooth ridged or granular. the mediator can have perforations and can have one or more luminescent faces.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un médiator magnétique permettant à l'usager d'un instrument de musique à cordes pincées de pouvoir fixer à tout moment et très rapidement ce médiator sur une partie métallique quelconque de l'instrument, pied de micros, ou autres.DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a magnetic pick allowing the user of a musical instrument with plucked strings to be able to fix this pick at any time and very quickly on any metal part of the instrument, stand for microphones, or the like.

Le médiator est un petit accessoire, il est en général de forme triangulaire et fabriqué en matière plastique, il est d'une faible épaisseur et possède une certaine souplesse. L'usager d'un instrument de musique nécessitant l'utilisation d'un médiator tel que la guitare, la mandoline, le banjo, etc... tient le médiator entre ses doigts de manière à pincer les cordes de son instrument afin de les faire résonner. The pick is a small accessory, it is generally triangular in shape and made of plastic, it is thin and has a certain flexibility. The user of a musical instrument requiring the use of a pick like the guitar, the mandolin, the banjo, etc ... holds the pick between his fingers so as to pinch the strings of his instrument in order to sound.

Lorsqu'un guitariste ne se sert pas de son instrument, il prend pour habitude de coincer le médiator entre les cordes et le manche de sa guitare mais aussi entre la table et la plaque de protection de celle-ci si toutefois elle en dispose ou bien il le pose sur son amplificateur ou autres meubles à portée de main, ce qui facilite l'égarement de ces petits accessoires.De plus il est parfois nécessaire dans le jeu de se servir de ses doigts pour faire des arpèges, dans ce cas il arrive fréquemment que l'instrumentiste glisse momentanément le médiator entre ses dents, ce qui n'est pas possible lorsqu'il doit chanter en même temps, toutefois il existe des dispositifs qui se fixent sur l'instrument et permettent le rangement d'un ou plusieurs médiators,
I'inconvénient de ces dispositifs est qu'ils sont parfois gênants et inesthétiques sur l'instrument, et limitent le placement du médiator à un seul endroit bien précis.When a guitarist does not use his instrument, he takes the habit of wedging the pick between the strings and the neck of his guitar but also between the table and the protective plate of the latter if however it has or he puts it on his amplifier or other furniture at hand, which facilitates the misplacement of these small accessories.Moreover it is sometimes necessary in the game to use his fingers to make arpeggios, in this case it happens Frequently the instrumentalist momentarily slides the pick between his teeth, which is not possible when he has to sing at the same time, however there are devices which are fixed on the instrument and allow the storage of one or more picks,
The disadvantage of these devices is that they are sometimes annoying and unsightly on the instrument, and limit the placement of the pick in one precise location.

La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un médiator magnétique (1) comprenant une ou plusieurs parties actives (2) constitué dans son ensemble d'un matériau composite magnétique ou équipé d'un ou de plusieurs éléments magnétiques (3). The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a magnetic pick (1) comprising one or more active parts (2) made as a whole of a magnetic composite material or equipped with one or more magnetic elements (3 ).

Il peut être constitué d'une feuille en matière plastique, bois, métal etc... (4) équipée sur une ou sur ses deux faces d'une feuille d'un matériau magnétique (3) placée de façon à laisser apparaître une ou plusieurs parties du médiator qui seront utilisées pour faire résonner les cordes de l'instrument, ces parties sont appelées parties actives (2). Ou bien un simple élément magnétique (5) peut être incorporé dans l'épaisseur du médiator. Ainsi l'instrumentiste dispose d'un médiator magnétique dont il peut se séparer très rapidement sans l'égarer en le "fixant" sur une quelconque partie métallique de son choix à portée de mains d'où il peut le reprendre aussi rapidement quand il le désire. Les surfaces du médiator peuvent être lisses striées ou granuleuses permettant une meilleure tenue entre les doigts de l'instrumentiste. Il peut être pourvu d'une ou plusieurs perforations limitant le glissement des doigts. Un corps luminescent peut être incorporé à une ou aux deux faces du médiator permettant à l'instrumentiste de le distinguer rapidement lors d'un concert dans une salle obscure. Une ou deux faces du médiator peuvent être équipées de feuilles autocollantes d'étiquetage. It can consist of a sheet of plastic, wood, metal, etc. (4) fitted on one or both sides with a sheet of magnetic material (3) placed so as to reveal one or more several parts of the pick which will be used to resonate the strings of the instrument, these parts are called active parts (2). Or a simple magnetic element (5) can be incorporated into the thickness of the pick. Thus the instrumentalist has a magnetic pick from which he can separate very quickly without losing it by "fixing" it on any metal part of his choice within reach of where he can pick it up as quickly when he longed for. The surfaces of the pick can be smooth striated or grainy allowing a better hold between the fingers of the instrumentalist. It can be provided with one or more perforations limiting the sliding of the fingers. A luminescent body can be incorporated into one or both sides of the pick allowing the player to quickly distinguish it during a concert in a dark hall. One or two sides of the pick can be fitted with self-adhesive labeling sheets.
