Abstract

The instrument consists of a mouthpiece (1), a body (2) and a bell (3) made from metal, preferably brass, and formed by different pressures, machinining and shaping. The mouthpiece is machined precisely on the inside to give a sealed contact with a double reed. The different sections can be made to be dismantled or fixed together, with the mouthpiece welded, and the body has anti-slip elements (4) on its outer surface. When played, different notes are obtained by holes in the side of the body with or without keys.

Description

DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION

La présente invention concerne la fabrication d'un instrument à vent à perce conique, à trous latéraux et à double anche d'Europe, nommé bombarde.Cet instrument est formé de plusieurs parties soit fixes ou démontables, dans les matériaux rigides suivants: aluminium, cuivre, laiton, monel, titane... , de préférence en laiton ou en cuivre.  The present invention relates to the manufacture of a wind instrument with conical bore, with side holes and double reed of Europe, called bombard.This instrument is formed of several parts either fixed or removable, in the following rigid materials: aluminum, copper, brass, monel, titanium ..., preferably brass or copper.

A l'origine, cet instrument est fabriqué traditionnellement en buis, bois de fruitier, ébène et divers bois ou en. synthétique.  Originally, this instrument is traditionally made of boxwood, fruitwood, ebony and various types of wood. synthetic.

En bois, les instruments sont fragilisés et se fissurent à cause de la différence de tension intérieur/extérieur: l'intérieur se dilate à cause de l'humidité (la condensation du souffle du joueur) alors que l'extérieur reste sec et que le bois ne peut pas résister à cette pression de l'intérieur. Les chocs durant le transport, pendant l'utilisation, ou encore l'humidité, détériorent sa qualité sonore, en altèrent le son, provoquent des fissures ou l'éclatement et rendent l'instrument inutilisable.  In wood, the instruments are weakened and crack because of the difference of tension inside / outside: the interior expands because of the humidity (the condensation of the breath of the player) while the outside stays dry and that the wood can not resist this pressure from the inside. Shocks during transport, during use, or moisture, deteriorate its sound quality, alter its sound, cause cracks or burst and render the instrument unusable.

La fabrication de ces instruments en métal, suivant cette invention, permet d'éliminer ces faiblesses.  The manufacture of these metal instruments according to this invention eliminates these weaknesses.

L'invention améliore par ailleurs la qualité sonore en rendant le son plus clair et plus puissant sans en modifier sa forme traditionnelle. (cf le modèle représenté sur la planche 2/3).  The invention also improves the sound quality by making the sound clearer and more powerful without changing its traditional form. (see the model shown on plate 2/3).

Par ailleurs, ces matériaux permettent d'obtenir, une précision (usinage, perçage, façonnage,...), une paroi plus fine qui améliore la qualité sonore sans altérer sa solidité.  Moreover, these materials make it possible to obtain, a precision (machining, drilling, shaping, ...), a thinner wall which improves the sound quality without altering its solidity.

L'usinage précis du boisseau (1) à l'intérieur forme une zone de contact étanche avec la double anche.  The precise machining of the plug (1) inside forms a sealed contact zone with the double reed.

Le boisseau (1) peut être soudé.The plug (1) can be welded.

Le transport est facilité par la possibilité de démontage des parties constituant l'instrument, ce modèle peut changer de tonalité par le changement du corps de l'instrument. Le corps (2) peut comporté des pièces antidérapantes (4) sur la paroi externe. Le mode de fabrication et les matériaux utilisés limitent sa reproduction.  The transport is facilitated by the possibility of disassembly of the parts constituting the instrument, this model can change tone by the change of the body of the instrument. The body (2) may have non-slip parts (4) on the outer wall. The method of manufacture and the materials used limit its reproduction.

Un procédé de fabrication de bombarde métallique permet d'améliorer la qualité sonore et la résistance aux tensions internes/externes, aux changements de température, à l'humidité, aux 30 chocs et aux transports.  A method of manufacturing metal bombardment enhances sound quality and resistance to internal / external stresses, temperature changes, humidity, shock and transport.

Figure 1 (modèle fixe) : Après la découpe des pièces métalliques à des longueurs définies, les différentes compressions, usinages et façonnages permettent de former le corps, le pavillon et le boisseau.  Figure 1 (fixed model): After the cutting of the metal parts to defined lengths, the different compressions, machining and shaping make it possible to form the body, the pavilion and the bushel.

L'assemblage se fait par soudure à l'argent, cuivre et étain... .Les trous sont alors percés à des distances et des diamètres propres à chaque modèles avec ou sans clé.  The assembly is done by welding silver, copper and tin ... .The holes are then drilled at distances and diameters specific to each model with or without key.

Un essai a alors lieu pour vérifier la justesse et la facilité de jeu de l'instrument, des 40 corrections peuvent avoir lieu.  An attempt is then made to check the accuracy and ease of play of the instrument, corrections can be made.

Le changement de la longueur du corps (2) permet de changer la tonalite (longueur variable selon la note musicale souhaitée).  The change of the length of the body (2) makes it possible to change the tonalite (variable length according to the musical note desired).

Figure 2 (modèle démontable) : L'assemblage des différentes parties de l'instrument se fait par emboîtements permettant le démontage, facilitant le transport et le rangement ainsi que le nettoyage.  Figure 2 (removable model): The assembly of the different parts of the instrument is done by interlocking allowing disassembly, facilitating transport and storage and cleaning.
