Description
H. HUEBSCHER.
Imprdvement in Material for Musical Instruments.
Patented Aug 20,1872
UNITED STATES PATENT QFFICE HEINRICH HUEBSCHER, OF KLINGENTHAL, GERMANY.
Specification forming part ofLcttcrs Patent No. 130,641, dated August 20, 1872.
Specification describing certain Improvements in Musical Instruments, the invention of Hnnvnron HUEBsonER, of Klingenthal, in the Kingdom of Saxony, German Empire.
In manufacturing various kinds of musical instruments or parts thereof, as, for instance, the covers and cases of accordeons and concertinas, the bottoms, key-boards, holders or supports, and stops of stringed instruments, the tubes of flutes, fiageolets or picolo-flutes, and drum-pipes, clarionettes, hautboys, and bassoons, it has hitherto been the custom to use wood for making the same. This employment of wood is subject to decided disadvantages, for when instruments of the description mentioned have been exported to warm or hot climates, a large percentage of them arrived at their destination in a damaged state, being either partially broken or partially cracked or torn. It accordingly has been the inventors aim, in manufacturing instruments of the description named, to replace the material hitherto employed-namely, wood-by other materials which, without deteriorating the value of the instrument with regard to its sound, will not be subject to the injuries described above, such as tearing, cracking, and breaking. To this end, the inventor, after numerous trials and experiments, has found that the best substitute for the material heretofore used for the purposes named is woodpaste soaked in glyceriue, inasmuch as said material, while meeting every requirement as above specified, has the advantage of admitting the easy and more secure application of certain embellishments and inlaid ornaments with which it is customary to decorate aparticular class of instruments.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents an outside face view, and Fig. 2 an edge view oi'a concertina cover made of woodpaste soaked in glycerine.
In manufacturing the instri'unents or parts of instruments with wood -paste soaked in glycerine, the wood paste or pulp, as employed by paper manufacturers, is moistened with water to a stiti' plastic pulp, and to this is added glycerine for the purpose of accelerat ing the drying and to facilitate after manipulation. The ornaments or inserted parts b Z) are not placed in the cover A until the latter is, in a measure, completedthat is, after it has been pressed into the molds in the follow ing manner: The plastic mass, having been press-ed into the covermold, is next overlaid with a thick slimy color-varnish. The ornaments are then inserted by pressure, and the ornamented article or cover dried. Varnish is then again drawn over the entire article, including the ornaments, and if necessary this is repeated a third time drying again takes place, and finally, by way of polishing, the entire surface is ground with emery and polishin g disks or wheels.
hat I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The construction of musical instruments or certain parts thereof, usuaily made of wood, of wood-paste saturated with glycerine, sub
stantially as speciiiee.
This specification signed day of April, 1872.
