Abstract

136,437. Meagher, E. J. April 9, 1919. Bagpipes.-Vent-holes 14, 15. 16 in each drone a, b, c, normally closed by spring-controlled plates. enable the drones to produce a chord corresponding with any key in which it is desired to play on the chanter. The chanter e has an open vent-hole 8 producing the key-note F, a back thumb-hole 1 producing its octave, and front vent-holes 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 producing the notes G, A, B-flat, U, and D respectively. The compass may be extended up to the higher C by a normally-closed harmonic vent-hole 9. Normally-closed vent-holes 10, 11, 12 sounding the notes C-sharp, B, G-sharp respectively, and a normally-closed vent-hole 13 sounding, with the vent-hole 2, either E or E-flat, enable all semitones from F to C to be produced.
