Abstract

A mouthpiece for reducing air resistance is provided to play a wind instrument easily by decreasing friction resistance of air in the mouthpiece, and to improve quality of the mouthpiece by mastering high technique such as vibrato or subtone. A mouthpiece(10) is installed at an end of a neck of a wind instrument, and a chamber(11) is formed in the mouthpiece and communicated with a hollow of the neck. An insertion groove(13) is formed at an end of the chamber to insert the neck, and the inside of the chamber is integrated with the inside of the hollow of the neck in inserting the neck. The mouthpiece is made of gold, silver, copper, bronze, brass, tin, iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, synthetic resin or glass. The diameter of the inside of the chamber is 17 +- 9 mm. The inside of the chamber is integrated with the inside of the neck to remove vortex or friction resistance of air.

The present invention relates to a mouthpiece mounted on the neck of a wind instrument, and in particular, it eliminates the frictional resistance of air generated at the portion where the mouthpiece and neck are connected, so that the tone of the wind instrument can be used in a rich and beautiful manner, and a high technique is also provided. It's about a mouthpiece that makes it easy to control.

In general, the mouthpiece mounted on the wind instrument is a part where the lip of the player touches, made of metal or synthetic resin, and used to match the number of the respective lakes.

Mouthpieces are distinguished by the structure of the instrument, and their shapes and functions are different. In non-pipe-type instruments designed to expand the sound in the tube, like a transverse flute, or to vortex the airflow in a hole blowing like a whistle-like flute. Depends. Among the yellow wind instruments, such as the clarinet, such as the yellow-yellow system (페 系) has a tongue called pek, and the abdominal system such as oboe (Feng-gyu system) is inserted directly into the arc tube (芦 管). Brass instruments, such as the horn, are fitted with dish-shaped or cup-shaped metal fittings.

The mouthpiece is an important selection criterion where the chamber and opening size are important choices, the chamber means the volume of the hollow inside the mouthpiece, the larger the chamber is a little heavy and rich sound, the smaller the chamber is colorful and stinging sound but It feels light. Opening means an opening between the mouthpiece and the lid.

Such a mouthpiece is large enough to play the same role as the main body of the instrument, and even a great instrument can be devalued because the sound quality or timbre varies depending on the mouthpiece.

However, the conventional mouthpiece has a problem that the frictional resistance of the air is generated when used in the neck of the instrument. That is, the mouthpiece according to the prior art is different in shape and material, but the shape of the chamber is uniformly formed as shown in Fig. 5, so that the neck of the instrument is inserted into the mouthpiece, There is a problem that the end portion acts as a resistor to generate a vortex.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is that when the player blows air for playing while the neck is inserted, vortex phenomena or frictional resistance is caused by air. It provides a mouthpiece in which the air blown by the player can naturally move through the neck to the main body of the instrument.

This object is achieved by the present invention, in accordance with an aspect of the present invention, the air resistance is reduced mouthpiece is mounted to the neck end of the wind instrument, the chamber is formed therein is formed in communication with the hollow portion of the neck And an insertion groove into which the neck is inserted is formed at one end of the chamber, and when the neck is inserted, an inner surface of the chamber and an inner surface of the hollow part of the neck coincide with each other.

In the present invention, the material of the mouthpiece is characterized in that made of one of gold, silver, pure copper, brass, bronze, tin, iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, synthetic resin, glass.

In addition, the material of the mouthpiece is characterized by consisting of two or more of gold, silver, pure copper, brass, bronze, tin, iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, synthetic resin, glass.

According to another aspect of the invention the diameter of the inner surface of the chamber is characterized in that 17 ± 9mm.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and like reference numerals designate like parts throughout the drawings.

1 is a perspective view of a mouthpiece according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the mouthpiece according to FIG.

As shown in the figure, the mouthpiece according to the present invention shown by reference numeral 10 is composed of a chamber, a tip opening, a facing, a table, a baffle, a side rail, a tip rail, and the like, and a chamber into which the neck 30 is inserted. An insertion groove 13 is formed at one end of (11).

The depth of the insertion groove 13 is formed to be equal to the thickness of the neck 30 is inserted, when the neck 30 is inserted and seated, the inner surface of the chamber 11 and the neck 30 Ensure the inner surface is on the same line. In this way, since the inner surface of the chamber 11 and the inner surface of the neck 30 are seated at the same position, it is possible to remove the vortex phenomenon or the frictional resistance of the air formed by the step.

That is, in the conventional mouthpiece 100 illustrated in FIG. 5, the air flow is not smooth due to the neck 30 inserted therein, and vortices are generated at the step, but in the mouthpiece 10 according to the present invention, air is not present. Smoothly moved to the main body 20 of the wind instrument.

When playing the wind instrument, the pressure that the player blows air is about 1000H ₂ O, the use of the mouthpiece according to the present invention can remove the frictional resistance of the air, so that the abundant air can be controlled and the breathing volume is about 20-30% improvement.

4 is a view showing a state in which the mouthpiece 10 according to the present invention is mounted on a wind instrument (saxophone). The lead 40 is seated on the mouthpiece 10 according to the present invention, and the lead 40 is seated. ) Is supported by the ligature (50).

According to the above configuration of the present invention, the frictional resistance caused by the air generated in the mouthpiece is eliminated, so that it is easy to play with abundant breathing volume, and also it is possible to easily perform the technique for wind instruments, as well as a high technique (virato) , Subtones, carltons) can also be easily used, thereby increasing the merchandise of the mouthpiece.

What has been described above is only one embodiment for implementing a mouthpiece in which the air resistance according to the present invention is reduced, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, as claimed in the following claims Without departing from the gist of the invention, those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains to the technical spirit of the present invention to the extent that various changes can be made.
