Abstract

A flute having thirteen holes which may be made from either wood or metal. The hole furthest from the mouthpiece is larger than the other holes. It may be provided with a wooden or plastic mouthpiece allowing the instrument to be end-blown rather than played transversely.

Description

A Flute With 13 Holes I declare this idea to be mine and think it's a new idea that I hope has not been done before.
An ordinary instrumental flute the ones I know of or have seen have only 6 holes starting 1/2 way down the instrument that have been designed to make a noise as you cover your finger over each hole.
I think the extra seven holes will make a different sound again as you close each finger over the holes. I understand that there is different instruments in the wind family that make different sounds.
A flute with 13 holes is an idea which I have been working on for 9 years. I feel this product would sell and the would be a wide range of market for them.
The flute itself would have two holes at the at the bottom, with one extra large hole being larger than the first hole.
The nozzle of the flute would be made of plastic or wood the plastic ones being easier to manufacture than the handmade wooden nozzle.
The floot itself could be made of a special kind of metal or could be handmade out of wood.
The trademark of my idea would be called FLOOT and the trademark would be under star agents.

Claims (6)

  1. T CLAIMS 1. This is a musical instrument which instead of having 7 holes would have and extra 6 holes.
  2. 2. The extra 6 holes could be used to make this instrument sound different.
  3. 3. Instead of the normal spelling of flute I would change it to floot.
  4. 4. I intend to make this instrument sound different in the fact that it has 6 more holes to play instead of 7.
  5. 5. 1 believe by doing this you could make a sound which is different.
  6. 6. You could make it out of wood or metal and it would look like a penny whistle.
