Definitions
- the violin is known to be between a passive base - the clavicle - and an active, i.e. starting point - the left hand - which is constantly in motion.
- a pronounced support function is only performed by the support point on the collarbone because the free movement of the arm and fingers as well as a relaxed posture should be guaranteed when playing.
- chin holder which is attached to the violin ceiling in the edge area of the lower bracket by means of two clips and is adapted to the shape of the chin so that the violin can be clamped between the chin and collarbone.
- a device for supporting violin or viola to propose between the chin and shoulder during play, which practically no longer influences the sound character of the instrument as if the instrument were only provided with a chin rest, which is intended to achieve a significant improvement in sound quality in comparison to the known instruments with shoulder supports.
- a chin rest K and a shoulder rest S are attached on the body 1 of a violin.
- the chin rest K is fastened in the edge region of the lower bracket designated 5 (FIG. 2) by two brackets 6 and 7. In contrast to the usual, the brackets are far apart.
- the third base 8 between the two brackets prevents the unwanted lateral movement of the chin rest.
- the chin rest is arranged so that it spans the tailpiece 9, which is held on a knob 11 via a side loop 10.
- the two brackets 6 and 7 each have a bolt 12, which has a right-hand thread R at one end section, a left-hand thread L at the other, opposite end section and is further provided with small, transverse blind holes 12 so that it can be used using a thin, in the holes 12 insertable pin.
- On the two end sections of the chin rest K and shoulder rest S facing the violin body holding members 13 to 16 are provided, which in the present exemplary embodiment are fastened by means of screws 17 to the parts of the chin rest or the shoulder rest facing them. By simply turning the bolts 12, the two brackets 6 and 7 can thus be clamped on the lower bracket 5 of the violin.
- the shape of the chinrest 18 is the solution discussed above, the lower section 19, 20 of the brackets 21, 22 also serving as a counterclamp for the fastening clips 23, 24 of the shoulder rest 25.
- the holders 26, 27 of the shoulder rest pad 25 connect with the clamps 23, 24 to the chin holder counter clamps 19, 20.
- the counter clamps 19, 20 are constructed in such a way that the hooks 28 of the steel springs 29 - which are located in holders 26, 27 - are caught in a recess 30 formed for this purpose in the lower section 19, 20 of the chin holder fastening clamps 21, 22.
- the other hook 31 of the steel spring 29 will then become caught in a counter hook 32 of the lower section 19, 20 of the chinrest clamps 21, 22 formed for this purpose.
- the shoulder rest 25 is stable on the lower portion of the chinrest mounts and the up and down assembly of the shoulder rest is quick and easy, just one movement.
- the use of the ball joint 35 enables the height and the transverse direction adjustment of the shoulder support 36.
- the ball joint 35 is fixed by a screw 37.
- the distance adjustment of the shoulder rest measured from the neck is carried out by a screw 38 which moves in the direction of the armpit. This screw is fixed by a counter screw 39.
- the holder connects to the pad 36 also through a ball joint 40, which ensures adaptation to the shoulder.
- the pad 25, 36 is slightly worn (A, B) and lies on the chest.
- a rubber seal 41 is used between the violin and the clips so less resonance is lost.
- the decisive advantage of the present invention is that the chin rest K and shoulder rest S, 25, 36 are anchored together on the same supports 6, 7, 21, 22 and thus the violin body with respect to its sound and resonance properties need not be adversely affected by other fasteners.
- brackets 6 and 7 are only examples that can be varied by a person skilled in the art within the scope of the inventive concept.
- the brackets 6 and 7 can either be screwed onto the violin body in a fixed position or can also be releasably anchored.
- a height adjustment device can also be provided, which allows the shoulder support position to be adjusted taking into account the anatomical conditions of the player.
- Such a height adjustment device could, for example, include an adjustment screw with a locking nut.
