- Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the back or rear of a musical instrument with strings whose bodies and mast are joined by a connecting element according to the present invention.
- Figure 3 shows a partial perspective section of the connecting element according to the present invention.
- Figure 4 shows an exploded view of the connecting element between a mast and a body of a musical instrument with strings according to the present invention.
- Figure 5 shows a side elevation view of the stringed musical instrument where the connecting element according to the present invention is partially illustrated allowing a first position between the mast and the body of said stringed musical instrument.
- Figure 6 shows a side elevation view of the stringed musical instrument where the connecting element according to the present invention is partially illustrated allowing a second position between the mast and the body of said stringed musical instrument.
- Figure 7 shows an enlarged exploded view of certain elements of said musical instrument with strings, without the strings appearing represented.
- Figures 1 to 7 show different aspects of the present invention in a musical instrument with strings, such as for example a guitar -1- composed of a body or box -11- and a neck -12- topped by a pegbox -13- .
- Figures 3 to 6 show a first aspect of the present invention.
- Figure 3 shows the first element -21- that can be part of the mast -12- or can be an independent element capable of being attached to the mast -12- by at least one fixing element (not shown).
- a second element -22- is shown that can be part of the body -11- of the guitar -1- or can be an independent element capable of joining the body -11- by at least one element of fixing (not illustrated).
- Both the first connecting element -21- and the second -22- comprise respective surfaces conjugated to each other and that are joined together by means of a threaded fixing element -223- which can be, for example, a bolt, a rod or a stud. , among others.
- Said fixing element -223- is inserted into a telescopic hole or hole -210- arranged in the first element
- said second element -22- has a regulation mechanism -2- of the angular position of the mast -12- with respect to the body -11- of the guitar - one-.
- Said regulation mechanism -2- also comprises a third -221- and fourth -222- elements each having respective curved and serrated surfaces conjugated together.
- said third -221- and fourth -222- elements comprise respective through holes through which said threaded fixing element -223- is inserted until its fixation in said telescopic hole or hole -210- arranged in the first element - twenty-one-.
- said third -221- and fourth -222- elements are arranged inside the second element -22- so that said third element -221- is immobilized by abutting the second element -22 - in -5- and -6-.
- the fourth element -222- can swing with respect to the third element -221- through its curved toothed and conjugated surface.
- the arrangement of the fourth element -222- with respect to the third element -221- in Figure 5 allows an aligned arrangement of the neck -12- with respect to the body -11- of the guitar, that is, there is no appreciable inclination of the neck -12- with respect to the body -11- of the guitar -1-.
- the fourth element -222- has tilted with respect to the conjugate and toothed surface of the third element -221-, thus allowing a tilting of the first element -21- with respect to the second element -22-, or what is the same, an inclination of the neck -12- with respect to the body -11- of the guitar -1-. It is important to note that the center of the circle of rotation of the first element -21- (and consequently of the mast -12-) is always at a point on the ropes above the mast.
- bridges -130- of different sizes can be arranged on guitar -1-, subsequently regulating the mast so as to always maintain a constant distance from the strings between the bridge (whatever its size or geometry) and the center -3- of the circumference of rotation of the mast, since said center -3- of the circumference of rotation of the mast -12- is located always at a point that coincides with one of the strings -4- above the mast -12-.
- the tilting of the fourth element -222- with respect to the third element -221- through a toothed surface allows the inclination of the mast -12- with respect to the body -11- can be adjusted progressively step by step.
- bridges of different sizes can be arranged always maintaining a constant distance of the strings between the bridge and the center -3- of the circumference of rotation of the mast -12-.
- the guitar -1- can consist of a body -Il ⁇ eon different interchangeable parts of the same materials of different materials such as, for example, maple wood, mahogany, pine , among others.
- the same mast can be exchanged with boxes of different materials, such as stainless metal, aluminum, brass, among others.
- said body 11 may also be made of carbon fiber. The making of said body -1- in different materials allows to explore different effects and sounds that can cause them in the generation of the sound of the guitar -1-.
- Said body -11- can comprise a front cover -180- or also referred to as an easily interchangeable harmonic cover only by loosening the strings thereof.
- the guitar strings can be fixed in the body -11- of the guitar in two different positions or also called strings (-140-, -150-): to a first internal chordal -140- allowing an angle of the strings with respect to to the -130- more acute bridge or to a second external -150- tailpiece that allows a flatter angle of the strings with respect to the same -130- bridge.
- strings inside the first internal tailpiece -140-, you can open a hole through the back of the body -11- of the guitar -1- and then close the hole with a lid -141-.
- the front part of the body -11- of the guitar -1- can also comprise different covers (-170-, -160-) with holes to allow a different loudness.
