Definitions
- the present invention relates to a type of keys provided with a partially oblong plate pierced with a hole or a third of a tiou for wind instrument or instrument with air duct and the adaptation of which presented here relates more specifically to the flute with beak in C or F, in one or more parts.
- Traditional keys with a full platter and controlled by one or more arms are relatively heavy to handle and reserved for large recorders (tenor, bass, and double bass). Their design is poorly suited to rapid strokes and delicate fingering passages.
- the key system of this invention makes it possible to remedy these problems by means of a particular device which, with a single plate, partially closes a single hole in the body of the instrument or, in the case of the twin holes at the bottom of the flute, completely closes one while freeing the other.
- the object of the invention is in fact, according to a first characteristic, a key for a wind or air duct instrument, comprising an arm, a stop, a spring-rod which, with the stop, keeps the key in a first position relative to the body of the instrument while allowing the key to be brought into a second position under the effect of a finger pressure, characterized in that it comprises a partially sealing plate pierced with an off-center hole in order to allow 0 to partially close a single hole or completely close one of the twin holes in the body of the instrument while releasing the other, by simply sliding the finger on the platter, thus making it easier to play certain notes which are naturally difficult to obtain.
- the key system comprises one or more keys of the type thus defined, and in particular:
- An octave key with a tray pierced with a third hole which is placed on the octave hole The single hole of the plate is drilled in the axis of the flute alteration hole for the keys of type C, C sharp and D, D sharp on the C flute [F, F sharp and G, G sharp on the flute in F].
- the third of the tray hole is drilled in the axis and at the upper third of the circumference of the octave hole of the flute for the octave key. A pad adhering directly or through a felt to the internal face of the tray is pierced in the same way.
- the key also includes an arm connected to a fixing system: either a traditional screw system, or a quick fixing system using a clip in the form of a ring which encloses the body of the instrument by simple retraction.
- a spring rod located under the key keeps it raised relative to the body of the instrument and the key is lowered by simple pressure of the finger on the tray. (We will then press according to the desired note on the hole of the tray or on its full part).
- the finger To obtain an altered note (C sharp, D sharp for the soprano flute, F sharp, G sharp for the flute in F) or a passage to the octave, the finger must be placed on the full part of the platter so as to release its perforated part.
- the finger placement margin offered by this solid part makes it possible to obtain the desired notes without fail, even in the event of slippage or imprecision because the small perforation of the cleared plate ensures the gap necessary for accuracy of the note.
- the fixing systems can be adapted to the type of flute used.
- the clip may have a fixed axis of rotation.
- the key arm may have a fork end which encloses this fixed axis of rotation.
- the clip may include a gutter serving as a stop in which the arm of the key fits.
- the whole key system with or without clip can be molded.
- the whole key system can be adapted to any other form of fixing, including traditional; if necessary, the platform can be kept lowered on the body of the instrument.
- the first position is preferably the position where the key is held raised relative to the body of the instrument, the second being the position where the key is lowered on the body of the instrument. But it can be different, the first position then being the position where the key is lowered on the body of the instrument, the second being that where the key is raised relative to the body of the instrument.
- the materials of this key system will have to be adapted according to the material of manufacture of the instrument. As an indication, we recommend plastic keys and clips for school flutes, metal keys, bakelite, carbon or any other material and screw fixing for concert flutes. However, to take advantage of the key and its fixing system, the materials chosen must be light whatever the instrument. The key must be fine and minimal clutter, this to be close to natural fingering and facilitate the adaptation of the instrumentalist.
- FIG. 1 shows a top view of a traditional keyless flute.
- FIG. 2 represents the flute seen from above with the key system with a plate pierced with a hole.
- Figure 3 shows the flute seen from below with the tray key system pierced with a third hole, the octave key being visible.
- Figure 4 shows, in profile, the flute and the key system.
- Figure 5 shows, in section, a key with a screw fixing.
- Figure 6 shows, in section, a key with a clip fastening.
- the key system comprises a plate (E) having an internal buffer (n), both drilled.
- plate (E) and buffer (n> are pierced with a single hole (F) on the diameter and in the axis of the alteration hole (c) of the flute.
- plate (E) and buffer ( ⁇ ) are drilled with a third of a hole (o ) in the axis and at the upper third of the circumference of the octave hole of the flute (D) .
- the internal face of the plate (E) of the octave key is lined with felt (i), on which the pad (n) is superimposed.
- (E) has an arm (J) connected to a traditional screw fixing system (i.) And terminated in this case by a stop (K) (in the embodiment according to FIG. 5), or else connected to a clip fixing system (M) (in the embodiment according to Figure 6).
- the clip (M) in the form of a ring encloses the body of the instrument (R).
- the clip (M) has a gutter (N) into which the arm 0) of the key fits.
- the gutter (N) necessary for fixing the key also has a stop function for it.
- the clip (M) also has a fixed axis of rotation (o). that the end of the fork-shaped key arm (Q) comes to grip.
- a spring rod (P) fixed under the arm (J) allows, with the stop system, to keep the key slightly raised relative to the body of the instrument and to lower it by simple pressure of the finger on the plate (E).
