Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a pop-up sounding instrument that plays a tune by plucking a vibrating valve given a scale with the tip of a thin stick held by the fingers.

Up until now, there have been no pop-up sounding instruments, such as those used in music boxes, in which a vibrating valve with a musical scale is played directly with the tip of a thin rod held in the fingers to play a tune.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a sounding instrument that plays music by playing a vibrating valve having a scale provided on a diaphragm support with the tip of a thin rod.

The sounding device of this invention includes a diaphragm on which a comb-like vibrating valve having a musical scale is formed, a diaphragm support to which the diaphragm is fixed, and a regulation that regulates the amount of displacement of the vibrating valve when the vibrating valve is played. It consists of every time you do it.

The present invention will be explained below with reference to illustrated embodiments. In FIGS. 1 to 3, the sounding instrument 1 is
It consists of a diaphragm 3 having a comb-shaped vibration valve 2, and a diaphragm support 5 imitating the shape of a ground piano, to which the base 3a of the diaphragm 3 is fixed with screws 4.
As the diaphragm 3, a diaphragm for a music box can be used.

A rectangular recess 6 is formed in the bottom of the diaphragm support 5, and the base 3 of the diaphragm 3 is inserted into this recess 6.
a is fixed, and the tip 2a of the vibrating valve 2 is exactly
It extends from the opening 7 to a portion corresponding to the keyboard of a piano.

The diaphragm support 5 is formed with eight holes per degree of the tip 2a of the vibrating valve. This stopper 8 is a stopper that faces the lower surface of the vibrating valve tip 2a in FIG. This helps prevent deformation and damage to the vibrating valve caused by the vibrating valve 2 being flipped more than necessary.

As the thin rod for flipping the vibrating valve, a tip of a stick, an iron pen, a ballpoint pen, a sharp pencil with a retracted lead, a special thin rod, or any other similar thin-tipped rod can be easily and appropriately used.

By providing a hole 10 (FIG. 1) in the diaphragm support 5 and passing a string such as a chain through the hole 10, the device can be carried as a pendant.

The sounding device 1 is pressed onto the table with one finger, and the tip 2a of the vibrating valve is pressed with a thin rod 9 held in the other finger.
Although it is used by playing a sound box 11, as shown in FIG. 2, it can also be used in conjunction with an appropriate sound box 11.

In order to facilitate the reliable flicking of the desired vibrating valve, a guide groove 12 for the thin rod corresponding to each vibrating valve can be formed above the tip of the vibrating valve, as shown in FIG. . Each guide groove is formed on the inclined surface of the diaphragm support 15 located above the tip 2a of the vibrating valve.

The diaphragm 3 is firmly held between a diaphragm support 15 and a support base 16, and a perforation 28 is formed on the surface of the support base 16 that faces the lower surface of the tip 2a.

FIG. 5 shows an example of a guide groove formed by a guide piece 32 rising from the contact surface 38 of the diaphragm support 35, and the upper part of the guide piece 32 enters the slit of the vibration valve. There is.

If the width of the slit between the vibrating valves is narrow and it is difficult to insert the guide piece 32 into the slit, as shown in FIG. A guide groove 48 can be provided. In this case, the force may be selected from either the bottom 48a of the guide groove 48 or the surface facing the lower surface of the tip 2a. Although the bottom portion 48a does not directly hit the vibrating valve, it restricts the downward stroke of the thin rod that flips the vibrating valve.
Excessive deformation of the vibrating valve can be prevented.

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a hobby sounding tool that can be dropped at any time.
