BAQUETA-CEPILLO FLEXIBLE DE FIBRA DE PALMERA PARA BATERÍA Y BAQUETA-FLEXIBLE BRUSH OF PALM FIBER FOR BATTERY AND
PERCUSIÓNPERCUSSION
La presente invención se refiere a una baqueta con utilidad músico-percusiva, formada por una pluralidad de varillas de médula de palmera, gracias a la cual se consiguen unas notables mejoras de interpretación de piezas de percusión, tanto en lo referente al ataque o tiempo de respuesta, como en el carácter evolutivo del timbre en relación con el desgaste del material, así como en posibles usos paralelos a la mera interpretación, como el calentamiento o la didáctica del instrumento, el golpeo entre el par, etc.The present invention relates to a drumstick with musico-percussive utility, formed by a plurality of palm medulla rods, thanks to which significant improvements in the interpretation of percussion pieces are achieved, both in relation to the attack or time of response, as in the evolutionary nature of the timbre in relation to the wear of the material, as well as in possible uses parallel to the mere interpretation, such as the heating or the didactic of the instrument, the striking between the pair, etc.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Son conocidas las baquetas que utilizan generalmente maderas como abedul y haya en infinidad de grosores, tamaños y acabados, siendo característica común el hecho de utilizar varillas cilindricas con independencia de la madera o la forma de su extremo percutor. En general este tipo de baquetas están equilibradas de manera que su centro de gravedad quede situado en la parte media de la baqueta, con lo cual no existe una óptima adaptación del instrumento al perfil y experiencia del instrumentista (con centros de gravedad más centrados en instrumentistas noveles, o situados en los extremos en el caso de intérpretes más experimentados, cuando buscan más matices musicales). Además, el uso o desgaste de las baquetas provoca un notable deterioro en el timbre y en la calidad musical de las piezas a interpretar, que lleva a su posterior desecho. Por otro lado, las baquetas habituales suelen tener unos extremos redondeados o "bellota", lo cual reduce considerablemente el "ataque" o tiempo de respuesta del sonido al impacto de una baqueta sobre una superficie de percusión, según el calibre que tenga.Drumsticks are generally known that use wood as birch and have an infinity of thicknesses, sizes and finishes, being common feature the fact of using cylindrical rods regardless of wood or the shape of its firing end. In general, these types of drumsticks are balanced so that their center of gravity is located in the middle part of the drumstick, with which there is no optimal adaptation of the instrument to the profile and experience of the instrumentalist (with centers of gravity more focused on instrumentalists novels, or located at the ends in the case of more experienced performers, when they look for more musical nuances). In addition, the use or wear of drumsticks causes a noticeable deterioration in the timbre and musical quality of the pieces to be performed, which leads to their subsequent disposal. On the other hand, the usual drumsticks usually have rounded ends or "acorn", which considerably reduces the "attack" or response time of the sound to the impact of a drumstick on a percussion surface, depending on the caliber it has.
Para evitar los inconvenientes de este tipo de baquetas, el titular de la presente invención, D. Miguel Ángel Lloreda Cruz, tras una notable búsqueda de materiales alternativos a las baquetas convencionales, localizó la fibra de médula de palmera, cuyas características fundamentales son las siguientes: material disparejo, irregular o no uniforme (heteróclito), que propicia su tratamiento cuasi-artesanal para ubicar el centro de gravedad de forma individualizada en cada par; conformación con fibras naturales cuyos vasos pilosos se van deshilachando y logrando con ello sonidos más mullidos; yTo avoid the inconveniences of this type of drumsticks, the holder of the present invention, Mr. Miguel Ángel Lloreda Cruz, after a remarkable search for alternative materials to conventional drumsticks, located the palm marrow fiber, whose fundamental characteristics are the following : uneven, irregular or non-uniform material (heteroclite), which promotes its quasi-artisanal treatment to locate the center of gravity individually in each pair; conformation with natural fibers whose hairy vessels are fraying and thereby achieving softer sounds; Y

con extremos en ángulo recto y secciones irregulares de cantos rectos o vivos, con evidentes consecuencias a efectos del "ataque" o tiempo de respuestas.SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) with ends at right angles and irregular sections of straight or live edges, with obvious consequences for the purpose of the "attack" or response time.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN La baqueta-cepillo flexible es del tipo de baquetas RODs para su uso a modo de útil de golpeo sobre cualquier instrumento de percusión. A partir de esta realización, la materia prima principal viene constituida por una pluralidad de fibras naturales sujetas en un extremo, a diferencia de las baquetas convencionales hechas de una sola pieza de madera rígida. Concretando el tipo de material utilizado en su construcción, se trata de fibra natural de médula de palmera, cortada con canto recto o vivo con una sección irregular, hecho que provoca que la propia fricción entre las varillas consiga un muy característico chasquido, lo cual enriquece mucho la sonoridad del instrumento en un doble sentido: uno por su propia sonoridad como baqueta individual, y dos por el contacto con el instrumento de percusión.DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The flexible drumstick is the type of ROD drumsticks for use as a striking tool on any percussion instrument. From this embodiment, the main raw material is constituted by a plurality of natural fibers fastened at one end, unlike conventional drumsticks made of a single piece of rigid wood. Specifying the type of material used in its construction, it is natural palm marrow fiber, cut with straight or live edge with an irregular section, which causes the friction between the rods to get a very characteristic click, which enriches much the loudness of the instrument in a double sense: one for its own loudness as an individual drumstick, and two for the contact with the percussion instrument.
Dado que la médula de palmera presenta una acentuada irregularidad en su grosor, ello permite que, dependiendo de la zona de corte, se consiga una baqueta exclusiva dependiendo de donde se sitúe el centro de gravedad. Esto es una característica fundamental dado que cualquier instrumentista novel tendrá más facilidad con un centro de gravedad equilibrado y situado en la zona central de la baqueta, ya que ello le permite mayor control de la misma. Sin embargo, un instrumentista experimentado preferirá localizaciones del centro de gravedad más desplazadas hacia los extremos para conseguir mejores matices. Las baquetas normales suelen tener su centro de gravedad fijo en la zona central o en los extremos. Sin embargo, nuestra invención da la posibilidad de elegir, según la propia fisonomía de las varillas y su material, que la baqueta sea totalmente equilibrada o permitir un desplazamiento y una movilidad del centro de gravedad al extremo percutor de la baqueta-cepillo, consiguiendo un aumento notable del volumen obtenido con un mínimo esfuerzo, sin perder el rebote natural de una baqueta normal. Ello dota a esta invención de una mayor flexibilidad y universalización en su uso, al poder ser usado por cualquier tipo de músico independientemente de su nivel, con tan sólo elegir el desplazamiento o no de dicho centro de gravedad y adaptarlo a sus necesidades.Since the palm marrow has a marked irregularity in its thickness, this allows, depending on the cutting area, an exclusive drumstick is achieved depending on where the center of gravity is located. This is a fundamental characteristic since any new instrumentalist will have more ease with a center of gravity balanced and located in the central zone of the drumstick, since this allows him greater control of it. However, an experienced instrumentalist will prefer locations of the center of gravity more displaced towards the ends to achieve better nuances. Normal drumsticks usually have their center of gravity fixed in the central zone or at the ends. However, our invention gives the possibility to choose, according to the physiognomy of the rods and their material, that the drumstick be fully balanced or allow a displacement and mobility from the center of gravity to the hammering end of the drumstick, achieving a Remarkable increase in volume obtained with minimal effort, without losing the natural rebound of a normal drumstick. This gives this invention greater flexibility and universalization in its use, being able to be used by any type of musician regardless of their level, by simply choosing the displacement or not of said center of gravity and adapting it to their needs.
HOJA DE SUSTITUCIÓN (REGLA 26)
El "ataque" de una baqueta es el tiempo de respuesta del sonido al impacto de la misma sobre una superficie de percusión. Normalmente las baquetas habituales suelen tener unos extremos redondeados o "bellota", lo cual reduce considerablemente el "ataque" y ese tiempo de respuesta, según el calibre que tenga ("ataque" y "calidez" suelen ser variables inversamente proporcionales en el mundo de la percusión). Sin embargo, el "ataque" se acentúa notablemente en caso de baquetas, como la de la presente invención, con extremos en ángulo recto, y aún más si está formado por un grupo de varillas (como es el caso) todas ellas con secciones irregulares de cantos rectos o vivos. Esta propiedad, en el caso del presente cepillo-baqueta tiene su mayor expresión cuando el centro de gravedad se aproxima a la punta percusora, consiguiéndose con ello ejercicios rítmicos complejos que otros tipos de baquetas- cepillo no pueden realizar.SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) The "attack" of a drumstick is the response time of the sound to its impact on a percussion surface. Normally the usual drumsticks usually have rounded ends or "acorn", which considerably reduces the "attack" and that response time, depending on the caliber you have ("attack" and "warmth" are usually inversely proportional variables in the world of percussion) However, the "attack" is markedly accentuated in the case of drumsticks, such as the one of the present invention, with ends at right angles, and even more so if it is formed by a group of rods (as is the case) all of them with irregular sections of straight or living songs. This property, in the case of the present brush-drumstick has its greatest expression when the center of gravity approaches the percussive tip, thereby achieving complex rhythmic exercises that other types of drumstick-brush cannot perform.
Su timbre es "evolutivo", lo cual hace que sea la única baqueta que cuente con esta característica, merced al material empleado. Así, tras un desgaste normal por un uso prolongado, cualquier baqueta pierde notablemente sus cualidades musicales, por el propio desgaste del material y la rotura de las varillas (en el caso de baquetas-cepillo). Sin embargo, en la presente invención, esta circunstancia se convierte en un gran activo para este instrumento, ya que al estar construida con fibras naturales de médula de palmera, los vasos pilosos de dichas fibras se van deshilachando o despegando unos de otros (sin que exista rotura de varillas) apareciendo unos pelillos que aportan una gran gama de sonidos diferentes más mullidos y aún más musicales sin perder sus características fundamentales, a la vez que una mayor adaptación a los distintos estilos musicales y forma de interpretar. Esta característica es, pues, también única.Its timbre is "evolutionary", which makes it the only drumstick that has this feature, thanks to the material used. Thus, after normal wear and tear due to prolonged use, any drumstick remarkably loses its musical qualities, due to the material's own wear and the breakage of the rods (in the case of brush drumsticks). However, in the present invention, this circumstance becomes a great asset for this instrument, since being constructed with natural palm-marrow fibers, the hairy vessels of said fibers are frayed or detached from each other (without there is a breakage of rods) appearing some hairs that provide a wide range of fluffy and even more musical different sounds without losing their fundamental characteristics, as well as greater adaptation to the different musical styles and way of performing. This characteristic is thus also unique.
Cerca de su extremo percutor va colocada una presilla móvil de un material elástico que al ser desplazada sobre el paquete de varillas consigue una u otra gama de sonoridades según donde se coloque, ya que al desplazarse y actuar dinámicamente incentiva sus propiedades musicales respetando en todo momento sus características principales ante el desgaste. El apresamiento o la liberación de una mayor o menor longitud de varillas permite la máxima gama de matices o expresiones. Cualquier percusionista, al aprender y practicar su técnica, así como "calentar" antes de una interpretación, suele hacerlo no sólo sobre el instrumento de percusión o la batería en sí, sino sobre cualquier superficie (un cojín o incluso su propio cuerpo). La propiedad de "rebote", en este uso antedicho, se ve mermada en determinados tipos deNear its firing end a mobile clip of an elastic material is placed that, when moved on the rod pack, achieves one or another range of sonorities depending on where it is placed, since when moving and acting dynamically it stimulates its musical properties respecting at all times Its main characteristics to wear. The seizing or releasing of a greater or lesser length of rods allows the maximum range of shades or expressions. Any percussionist, by learning and practicing his technique, as well as "warm up" before a performance, usually does not only on the percussion instrument or the drums itself, but on any surface (a cushion or even his own body). The "bounce" property, in this use above, is impaired in certain types of

superficie no-musicales o no-percusivas. Sin embargo interesa (como sucede en los pads de práctica) ejercitarse a base de que estas baquetas puedan percutir en cualquier superficie y conseguir una respuesta neutra (sin rebote y sin casi sonido) con muy poco volumen. La presente invención aporta una gran ventaja respecto a las baquetas normales en este sentido, todo ello gracias a su propiedad disipadora. Ello permite que el ejecutante pueda ejercitar las muñecas en cualquier lugar y en cualquier momento, sin contar con una superficie específicamente músico-percusiva.SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) non-musical or non-percussive surface. However, it is interesting (as is the case in practice pads) to exercise on the basis that these drumsticks can strike on any surface and achieve a neutral response (no bounce and almost no sound) with very little volume. The present invention provides a great advantage over normal drumsticks in this regard, all thanks to its dissipative property. This allows the performer to exercise the wrists at any place and at any time, without having a specifically percussive musician surface.
Bateristas o percusionistas pueden apoyarse en el timbre que desprende el material de la presente invención, para que al ser percutidas contra cualquier superficie, creen música, gracias a la propiedad de generar un sonido cercano al espectro audible humano y con un despliegue armónico ponderado. Así, el golpeo de dos de estas baquetas de médula de palmera aporta una musicalidad propia y diferenciada, con matices percusivos ricos, variados y diferenciados respecto al golpeo sobre una superficie de percusión habitual.Drummers or percussionists can rely on the timbre that the material of the present invention gives off, so that when percussed against any surface, they create music, thanks to the property of generating a sound close to the human audible spectrum and with a weighted harmonic display. Thus, the beating of two of these palm-marrow drumsticks provides its own and differentiated musicality, with rich, varied and differentiated percussive nuances with respect to the striking on a usual percussion surface.

Se sujetan con cinta partiendo de lo que será la base del mango. Durante este proceso se le da una forma cuasi-cilíndrica al conjunto teniendo en cuenta que se trata de varillas con cantos planos o vivos de secciones irregulares (ver figura 3).They are fastened with tape starting from what will be the base of the handle. During this process, the assembly is given a quasi-cylindrical shape, taking into account that these are rods with flat or live edges of irregular sections (see figure 3).
Seguidamente se aplica una funda termorretráctil, que al calentarse y contraerse forma el mango de la baqueta (ver figuras 1 y 4 (3)).A heat shrink sleeve is then applied, which, when heated and contracted, forms the handle of the drumstick (see figures 1 and 4 (3)).
En el extremo del mango se aplica un adhesivo instantáneo y se coloca un tapón de PVC flexible, como se observa en las figuras 1 y 4 (4), que dará, junto con el pegamento, más consistencia si cabe al conjunto. Seguidamente se coloca la presilla (2) que regula la dinámica percusora de la baqueta.An instant adhesive is applied to the end of the handle and a flexible PVC plug is placed, as shown in Figures 1 and 4 (4), which will give, together with the glue, more consistency if it fits the assembly. Then the clip (2) that regulates the drum dynamics of the drumstick is placed.
