However, in the method of carving a wood board into a soundboard shape, first, the raw material wood is dried, which requires a drying cost, and then the dry wood is manually or NC routered. Skilled technology and advanced processing equipment were required to cut out, and the processing cost was high. Further, as a raw material wood plate, a wood plate having a sufficient volume for carving out a three-dimensional soundboard shape is required, and there is a problem that the raw material yield is poor and wood resources are wasted. Further, the soundboard thus obtained was not good in vibration characteristics because the wood fibers were cut off by shaving. In a method of forming a soundboard shape by hot-pressing a wood board having a necessary thickness for the soundboard, it is necessary to control the water content of the raw material wood board to about 15%, which is troublesome. It took. In addition, there is a problem that the wooden board is cracked by tensile force during hot press molding, and internal stress accumulates in the soundboard after molding because the shape is fixed only by heat, and the soundboard shape returns due to moisture in the air. was there. Further, the sound board obtained in this way had poor vibration characteristics because of the accumulation of internal stress.

[ Example 2 ] A maple dried wood board having a length of 440 mm, a width of 252 mm and a thickness of 4 mm, which was glued together with a urea / melamine resin type adhesive in the center in the width direction, was placed in boiling water at 100 ° C for 30 minutes. It was treated for a minute and softened. Then, the width direction was pressed with a press surface plate at a pressure of 15 kg / cm 2 to compress the width direction by about 5%.
At this time, a frame die whose width direction was fixed at 240 mm was used so that the wood plate did not spread in the width direction even when the press was released. Next, the compressed wood board which was fixed in the width direction with a frame mold was the same as the reference example except that a silicone resin packing was not attached and a spacer having a thickness of 4 mm was inserted between the upper mold and the lower mold. It was placed in a cavity of a metal mold and press-molded at a pressure of 15 kg / cm 2 . In addition,
Since the wood plate at the time of pressing is soft, a spacer was used so as not to be over-compressed when being pressed with a pressure of 15 kg / cm 2 . With the wood plate placed in the cavity and in the state of being press-molded, this mold was placed in an autoclave and steam of 140 ° C. was steamed for 10 minutes to fix the shape of the wood plate. Then, the wood board and the mold are placed at 60 ° C.
After cooling to, the wood board in the mold was taken out. The wood board thus formed had no surface cracks and had a deep color tone, and was suitable for a violin soundboard.

As described above, according to the manufacturing method of the present invention, since the compressed wood board is softened and press-formed into the soundboard shape, it is possible to manufacture the soundboard having a curved surface shape without breaking the wood fiber. Therefore, a soundboard having excellent vibration characteristics can be obtained. Further, as compared with the conventional manufacturing method in which the soundboard is cut out from the raw material wood, it can be manufactured from a smaller number of raw materials, the wood resources are not wasted, and the cost can be reduced.
In addition, since the cellulose chains of wood are rearranged and the crystallinity is increased by fixing the shape, it is less likely that shape recovery due to moisture will occur and the vibration characteristics of the wood plate will be less likely to occur as compared with the wood plate whose shape is fixed only by heating. An excellent soundboard for musical instruments can be obtained, and since the material is dark brown due to the immobilization treatment, it is possible to finish with a transparent and deep appearance while shortening the painting process of the soundboard for musical instruments. it can. Further, by using a compressed wood plate that is compressed in the width direction of the wood plate, it is difficult to crack even if a tensile force is applied in the width direction of the compressed wood plate during press molding, so a soundboard with excellent vibration characteristics can be efficiently manufactured. . Furthermore, by pressing the compressed wood plate while fixing the width in the width using a shape fixing jig or a mold with a stopper, the width of the compressed wood plate does not return in the width direction, and it is stable. Can manufacture soundboards for musical instruments.
