Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a rhythm musical instrument with a bell-shaped sound box, which is set in vibration by striking with a baton.
  • Such musical instruments are referred to as “cowbells” or English as “cowbells”.
  • cowbells To vary their timbre, it is known that the musicians press with their hand more or less strongly against the surface of the resonator. This type of damping requires the use of two hands for hitting, ie. H. Such attenuation is not possible if the musician wants to continue playing with the second hand another percussion instrument.
  • the invention has the object, a musical instrument of the type mentioned in such a way that the setting of an individual timbre is permanently possible.
  • This object is achieved in that a damping device is provided for damping the vibrations of the resonator.
  • the damping device preferably comprises a damping element which can be pressed against the wall of the resonance body, in particular made of a soft material such as felt, rubber, foam or the like.
  • the damping element is pressed against the inner wall of the resonator.
  • the damping element may be composed of sub-elements of different material and / or different size, for. B. from a combination of a flat rubber plate and a smaller felt disc.
  • the damping element by means of a screw in its distance or in the pressing force against the inner wall of the resonator is adjustable.
  • a thread may be formed in a wall of the resonator, which is penetrated by the screw.
  • the thread can be formed approximately by a welded nut.
  • the adjusting screw can be designed so that it presses the damping element either against the inner wall of the resonator or attracts against them.
  • the inventive design ensures that the sound of the musical instrument can be adjusted differently and permanently, so that the musician does not need a hand to achieve a damping or sound change.
  • the damping device is arranged on a displaceable bearing rod and spring-loaded in the direction of a damping position or inactive position.
  • the damping device is in a defined starting position and can be manually moved by pressing the bearing rod against the spring action in the other position for short-term change of the sound of the musical instrument.
  • cowbell musical instrument 1 An illustrated in the drawing, usually referred to as a cowbell musical instrument 1 has a bell-shaped, metallic sound box 2, which includes a sound opening 3 and arranged at the opposite, rear end mounting bracket. 4
  • a hole 5 passing through its wall 5 is introduced, which is surrounded by a threaded nut 7, which is fixed by means of a weld 8.
  • a screw 9 passes through the nut 7 and is provided at its free end with a knob 10, whereby a total of an adjusting screw 11 is formed.
  • the adjusting screw 11 together with a damping element 12 a total of a damping device 13th
  • the damping element 12 comprises a rubber disc 14 of larger diameter, a felt disk 15 of smaller diameter and a further felt disk 16 of a denser felt material with even smaller diameter.
  • the damping element 12 is fixed by means of a holding head 17 of the screw 9 and a washer 18 on the adjusting screw 11.
  • the damping element 12 By turning the adjusting screw 11, the damping element 12 can be brought to bear against the inside of the wall 5, as in Fig. 2 is shown. Depending on the setting of the contact pressure of the damping element 12 on the inside of the wall 5, the sound can be changed as desired.
  • the damping element 12 is pressed by means of a tensile force against the inside of the wall 5.
  • a one-piece damping element 12 'in the form of a felt block is pressed by an adjusting screw 11' against the wall 5 of the resonance body 2.
  • a bearing rod 21 is slidably mounted in a guide bushing 22 in the wall 5 of the resonance body 2, which carries at its inner end the multi-part damping element 12.
  • a washer 18, two felt discs 16, 15 and a rubber disc 14 attached to the bearing rod are provided.
  • the rubber disc 14 carries at its outer edge a circumferential annular projection 23, with which the damping element 12 is pressed against the wall 5.
  • a handle 24 is attached, which forms a larger diameter abutment disc 25.
  • a helical compression spring 27 is clamped, the bearing rod 21 with the damping element 12 in the in Fig. 4 applied damping position applied.
  • Fig. 5 shown embodiment of the musical instrument with respect to the storage of the damping device 13 on a bearing rod 21 and the formation of the damping element 12 and the handle 24 for actuating the damping device according to the embodiment according to Fig. 4 .
  • Corresponding elements are provided with identical reference numerals. For your explanation, please refer to the corresponding description of Fig. 4 to get expelled.
