Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a stringed instrument having a height-adjustable fixture for fixing the strings to a sleeper or hook fixed across the neck or body of the stringed instrument. The above-mentioned sleeper or bridge has a long base, and screws for adjusting the height of the strings, the number of which is equal to the number of strings, are screwed into the base in a row at the same intervals as the strings. There is.

There are usually 4,
6. Twelve eight-pronged strings are arranged in parallel, one end of which is attached to the main body (resonator body) K, the other end is attached to the neck Km, and a bobbin winder 1 is attached.
can be turned to apply tension to the strings to obtain the desired tuning. On the fingerboard, 7-lets are arranged parallel to each other at intervals i-, and the strings are guided above the 7-lets at a short distance.

Set the string extending above the 7th note to the desired height.

It is known to provide so-called sleepers on the body of a stringed musical instrument in order to provide support. The strings are placed one on top of the sleepers! You will be guided at a distance and the height can be adjusted freely.

The above-mentioned sleeper is disclosed in German Publication No. 1912411. The sleeper comprises several elements: a grooved string guide for laterally fixing each string, and a string roll carrier for the strings.

The height position of the retainer, that is, the height position of the arc, is adjusted by a worm screw. This worm screw passes through a roll and is supported by a base plate with a fingerboard KTl#L attached.

The string guide member C is connected to the board on one side and the other side via screws.
to the string roll. This known sleeper for stringed instruments is expensive to manufacture and difficult to assemble because there are many pieces in one piece.
'. - □Namerica Patent Specification No. 397128'6 discloses a sleeper extending laterally across the fingerboard.

A groove is provided in the head of the iron sleeper to guide the string in the lateral direction, and a worm screw for adjusting the height of the string is inserted into the sleeper so that its head is below the upper part of the sleeper. do. The heads of the screws mentioned above support the strings, while the grooves formed in the sleepers guide the strings in the lateral direction.

The disadvantage of the above-mentioned sleepers is that the height position of the strings cannot be changed without actually loosening the strings. In other words, in order to approach the worm screw and turn it to change the height position, the string must first be loosened and pulled out of the groove in the sleeper, and the string must be reintroduced into the groove. It is necessary to make people nervous.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a string fixture on the body of a stringed instrument, and if desired on the resonator body, which is simple in structure, inexpensive to manufacture, and allows the height position of the strings to be changed without loosening the strings. The goal is to provide the following.

The above object is achieved by a height-adjustable string fixture for a stringed instrument according to the invention having the features set out in the claims.

According to one embodiment of the stringed instrument according to the present invention, four f-locks, equal to the number of strings, are arranged on the base, and the f-locks are provided with string guide grooves.

The block is laterally guided on the mosquito base by a belly plate of the base and is operatively engaged so that the height position of the block can be changed by turning a screw.

In one embodiment of the invention, the screw is threaded into a threaded through hole in the four and is also supported at the bottom of the base. When the screw is turned, the block is raised and lowered relative to the base due to the threaded engagement relationship between the screw and the block. You can insert the screw through the string and turn the screw, so you can use it on the mosquito block! There is no need to shift the string to adjust it to a desired height. At times, the strings may be pushed and shifted slightly to the side, but there is no need to loosen and then tighten the strings to re-tune the strings.

In another embodiment of the invention having an adjustable string height fixture, the head of the screw engages a groove formed in the side wall or below a shoulder formed in the f-lock side wall. When the screw screwed into the base is turned, the head of the screw moves in the direction in which the screw is turned: the broke moves upward or downward. Even in this structure, it is not necessary to change the position of the string in order to change the height of the string.

In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the fixture capable of adjusting the height of the string has a base having a row of spaced-apart markings, and a screw is screwed into the markings and the head of the screw is screwed into the string. The part protrudes above the upper line of the foundation part. #l is formed on the head of the screw, and the height adjustment of the 0 string, which has a groove width that allows the string introduced inside to be fixed in the horizontal direction, makes the mosquito nervous and does not allow the string to be moved above the 9th angle. This is possible with a slight lift from the groove. Once the height has been adjusted by turning the screw, reintroduce the string into the groove.

It is preferable that the depth of the groove in the screw head be the same as the approximate diameter of the string to the full diameter. This ensures that the strings are fixed laterally.

The fixture according to the present invention is constructed in the form of a sleeper and can be screwed or glued to the neck of the musical instrument. However, the fixture is also installed on the resonance side in the longitudinal direction K within the frame.
w4- A freely provided hook-like structure is formed. In the case of the rear chopsticks, the frame can be rotated and it is $＄＠II! 15mK co・
