Next, the operation of this electronic keyboard instrument will be described.
When playing with this electronic keyboard instrument, first, the keyboard lid 17 is opened and the keyboard section 7 is opened. At this time, a hand is put on the lower part of the front end of the front lid 18 and the front lid 18 is pushed up and pushed toward the rear of the keyboard portion 7.

  Then, the guide protrusion 18a of the front lid 18 starts moving toward the rear side of the keyboard portion 7 along the guide portion 22, and the rear end portion of the rear lid 19 is centered on the rotation fulcrum portion 21 in FIG. Start rotating clockwise. At this time, the front lid 18 and the rear lid 19 rotate around the connecting member 20 and bend so that the mountain fold gradually increases.

  When the front lid 18 is further pushed toward the rear of the keyboard portion 7, the lower surface of the front lid 18 (the right side surface in FIG. 2) faces and approaches the lower surface of the rear lid 19 (the left side surface in FIG. 2). While the guide projection 18a of the front lid 18 is positioned at the rear end portion of the guide portion 22, it rises almost upright, and the rear end portion of the rear lid 19 further rotates clockwise around the rotation fulcrum portion 21. Stand up.

  At this time, the guide protrusion 18 a of the front lid 18 is supported by the rear end portion of the guide portion 22, and the front lid 18 rises in a substantially vertical state above the rear portion of the keyboard portion 7. Thereby, the keyboard lid 17 is in the rear end portion of the keyboard portion 7 in a state where the lower surface of the front lid 18 (the right side surface in FIG. 2) and the lower surface of the rear lid 19 (the left side surface in FIG. 2) face each other. The keyboard part 7 is released by being folded up into a mountain fold and standing up.

  In this state, the keyboard lid 17 is bent in a mountain fold, and the keyboard lid 17 is located between the rising portion 5a of the pair of side plates 5 and the partition member 14 with the rear lid 19 approaching the upper front plate 14b of the partition member. While being arranged upright, the upper end portion of the keyboard lid 17 is disposed below the sound emitting member 24. Thereby, the sound emitting hole 23 of the sound emitting member 24 is not blocked by the keyboard lid 17. At this time, the sound emitting lid 30 is closed and the top plate sound emitting hole 6a of the top plate 6 is closed.

  When the top plate sound emitting hole 6a of the top plate 6 is thus closed and the keyboard portion 7 is opened, the keyboard portion 7 is exposed to the upper side of the musical instrument case 1. The key 10 can be depressed to perform. When the key 10 is depressed and played in this state, the hammer member 11a of the action mechanism unit 11 rotates and an action load is applied to the key 10. At this time, the switch unit 12 of the action mechanism unit 11 performs a switching operation to output an electrical signal, and the sound generation unit 13 generates a musical tone based on the electrical signal from the switch unit 12.

  Thus, when the sound generation unit 13 generates a musical sound, the musical sound is emitted from the sound emission hole 15a of the shelf board 15 to the lower side of the top board 6. At this time, since the top plate sound emitting hole 6 a of the top plate 6 is closed by the sound emitting lid 30, the musical sound emitted between the top plate 6 and the shelf plate 15 cannot be heard in front of the partition member 14. Sound is emitted from the sound emitting hole 23 of the sound emitting member 24 toward the front side of the musical instrument case 1 through the open portion 14 c between the plate 14 b and the top plate 6. Thereby, the performer can listen to the musical sound generated in the sound generator 13 satisfactorily.

  In this case, the sound emitting member 24 includes a thin frame-like portion 25 arranged over the entire length of the keyboard portion 7 along the arrangement direction of the plurality of keys 10 and a plurality of reinforcements that reinforce the frame-like portion 25. And the sound emitting hole 23 is formed in a region surrounded by the frame-shaped portion 25 and the plurality of reinforcing portions 26 so as to be opened in the front-rear direction of the musical instrument case 1. The sound emitting area of the hole 23 is formed wide. For this reason, the musical sound generated by the sound generation unit 13 is emitted efficiently and sufficiently toward the front side of the musical instrument case 1.

  Further, at this time, since the sound generation unit 13 is provided on the front side of the lower surface of the shelf board 15, the sound generation unit 13 is disposed close to the sound emitting member 24. For this reason, the musical sound generated by the sound generation unit 13 is efficiently guided to the sound emission hole 23 of the sound emission member 24 and is emitted from the sound emission hole 23 of the sound emission member 24 toward the front side of the instrument case 1 well. Is done.

  By the way, when it is desired to change the sound quality of the musical sound generated by the sound generation unit 13, the sound emission cover 30 provided on the top plate 6 may be opened to open the top plate sound emission hole 6a. At this time, when the sound emission cover 30 is rotated upward about a hinge 30 a provided at the rear end of the sound emission cover 30, the lower end 33 b of the support bar 33 is moved forward along the support restriction portion 32. When the sound emitting lid 30 is opened while gradually moving, the lower end portion 33b of the support bar 33 abuts against the front end portion of the support restricting portion 32 and the position is restricted.

  Accordingly, the sound emitting lid 30 is supported by the support bar 33 in a state where the sound emitting lid 30 is opened and the top plate sound emitting hole 6a is opened. In this state, when a tone is generated by the sound generation unit 13, the tone is emitted from the sound emission hole 15 a of the shelf 15 toward the top plate 6. A part of the emitted musical sound is emitted to the front side of the musical instrument case 1 through the sound emission hole 23 of the sound emission member 24.

  Further, some other musical sounds are emitted above the musical instrument case 1 from the top plate sound emission holes 6 a of the top plate 6, and the emitted musical sounds are directed toward the front side of the musical instrument case 1 by the sound emission lid 30. Reverberated. In this way, the musical sound generated in the sound generation unit 13 is emitted from the sound emission hole 23 of the sound emission member 24 and the top plate sound emission hole 6a of the top plate 6 to the outside of the musical instrument case 1, thereby generating the sound generation unit. The tone quality of the musical tone generated at 13 is changed, and the musical tone having the changed tone quality can be heard well.

  Thus, according to this keyboard instrument, a musical instrument case that houses the keyboard portion 7 and the keyboard portion 7 and includes at least a pair of side plates 5 and a top plate 6 attached to the upper ends of the pair of side plates 5. 1, the sound generation unit 13, a frame-like portion 25 surrounding the sound emission hole 23 that emits sound from the sound generation unit 13 to the front side of the musical instrument case 1, and the frame-like portion 25 are located above and below the sound emission hole 23. The upper plate portion 25a and the lower plate portion 25b are respectively positioned in the direction, are located between the upper plate portion 25a and the lower plate portion 25b, and are formed separately from the frame-like portion 25, and By providing the reinforcing portion 26 that supports the upper plate portion 25a in order to suppress the bending of the 25a, the frame-like portion 25 can maximize the opening area of the sound emitting hole 23, thereby making the frame shape The sound emission hole 23 of the section 25 allows the musical sound to be efficiently and fully It is possible to sound toward the front side of the musical instrument case 1.

  In this case, the length of the frame-like portion 25 in the front-rear direction is the length between the rising portion 5a at the front portion of the side plate 5 and the front surface of the upper front plate 14b provided upright above the rear portion of the keyboard portion 7. Accordingly, the depth of the frame-like portion 25, that is, the length in the front-rear direction can be increased, and thus when the musical sound generated in the sound generation portion 13 is emitted toward the front of the musical instrument case 1, The musical sound can be given directivity, can be improved in appearance, and can be improved in design.

  The sound emitting member 24 has a thin frame-like portion 25 arranged along the arrangement direction of the plurality of keys 10 and a reinforcing portion 26 that reinforces the frame-like portion 25. Accordingly, the opening area of the sound emitting hole 23 can be maximized by the thin frame-like part 25, and the opening area of the sound emitting hole 23 can be maximized to increase the strength of the frame-like part 25. Even if it falls, the intensity | strength of the frame-shaped part 25 can be ensured by the reinforcement part 26, and, thereby, the rigidity of the frame-shaped part 25 can be improved.

  Further, the sound emitting member 24 is provided with a net member 29 covering the sound emitting hole 23 on the front surface thereof, so that a musical sound can be emitted to the front side of the musical instrument case 1 through the net member 29. In addition to preventing dust and other dust from entering the instrument case 1, even if a sound emitting member 24 is provided at the lower front side of the upper part of the instrument case 1, the sound emitting member 24 is connected to the net member 29. Since it can be hidden, the appearance of the musical instrument case 1 is not impaired by the sound emitting member 24, and the design of the musical instrument case 1 can be enhanced by the net member 29.

  Furthermore, in this electronic keyboard instrument, the sound generation unit 13 is disposed in the musical instrument case 1 so as to be located behind the sound emission member 24, so that the musical sound generated in the sound generation unit 13 is emitted into the instrument case 1. However, the musical sound can be reliably and satisfactorily emitted from the sound emission hole 23 of the sound emission member 24 to the front side of the musical instrument case 1.

  In this case, the musical instrument case 1 has a shelf 15 disposed between the top plate 6 and the action mechanism unit 11 inside, and a sound generation unit 13 is attached upward on the front side of the lower surface of the shelf 15. Therefore, the sound generation unit 13 can be disposed close to the sound emitting member 24. For this reason, even if the musical sound generated by the sound generation unit 13 is emitted between the top plate 6 and the shelf board 15, the musical sound is efficiently transmitted from the sound emitting hole 23 of the sound emitting member 24 to the front side of the musical instrument case 1. Sound can be emitted.

  Further, in this electronic keyboard instrument, a keyboard lid 17 that covers the upper side of the keyboard portion 7 so as to be openable and closable is disposed below the sound emitting member 24 so as to be folded in a mountain fold and stood up, thereby opening the keyboard lid 17.
