Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a drum in general, that is to say an assembly comprising a drum, a drum head on one side of the drum, a stamp skin on the opposite side of the drum, two strappings, one of which is connected to the periphery of one skin and the other is connected to the periphery of the other skin, and tie rods making it possible to pull each strapping in a direction opposite to the corresponding end of the barrel, in order to exert tension on the skin .
  • the drum in question is in particular an element of a battery, whether it is a snare drum, a tom or the bass drum of this battery.
  • a drum having a barrel of reduced height such as a drum snare
  • a drum having a shell of greater height such as a tom or a drum bass drum
  • each strapping comprises holes arranged so as to come opposite of these anchors
  • each tie rod is connected to an anchor fitting, for its connection to the shaft, and to the corresponding strapping, at the level of the hole that this strapping comprises located opposite the fitting.
  • a constant concern for a drummer is to get the sound as personalized as possible; another constant concern is to obtain, on the same battery, sounds as differentiated as possible.
  • the snare drums, toms or bass drums of the existing drums do not make it possible to meet these needs, or only allow it to a limited extent, by the multiplication of the toms, which is expensive and poses notable problems of space.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a drum in general, and in particular a snare drum, a tom or a bass drum of a battery, meeting these needs.
  • the drum concerned comprises, in a manner known per se, the characteristics mentioned in the preamble of the appended claim 1.
  • the invention thus takes the opposite view of the conventional technique involving a determined number of tie rods on the drum and involving determined positions of these tie rods on the circumference of this drum, therefore obtaining a sound that is not or only slightly customizable.
  • the drummer can choose the number of tie rods that he uses for the striking skin and the number of tie rods that he uses for the timbre skin, by differentiating if he wishes these numbers from 'a skin to another, and can choose the positioning of the tie rods on the circumference of the barrel, being able to adopt if desired non-regular intervals between these tie rods.
  • the user is able to obtain very different sounds from one zone of the striking head to another, and from one drum from one drum kit to another, and therefore to personalize the sound that these drums can produce.
  • support grip zone and “grip end” are used to cover all types of connection structures between, on the one hand, each strapping and the rail, and, on the other hand, each tie rod; according to a preferred embodiment, detailed more far away, the “support grip zones” are grooves and the “grip ends” are hooks; however, it would be conceivable to provide sliders slidably engaged on a strapping and a corresponding rail, connected to the tie rods by any known connecting means; in particular, each slider could be pierced with a hole receiving through it a corresponding threaded end of a tie rod, this threaded end receiving a nut screwed onto it and resting on the slider.
  • the drum according to the invention may comprise a single rail, in particular positioned midway between the two axial ends of the barrel, in which case this rail forms, on two opposite axial sides, two gripping zones for the tie rods, one of these gripping zones receiving the tensioning tie rods of one of the skins and the other of these gripping zones receiving the tensioning tie rods of the other skin.
  • This drum can also comprise two rails, one of which is dedicated to tensioning one of the skins and the other is dedicated to tensioning the other skin; in this case, each rail comprises a single grip zone.
  • the figure 1 represents a drum 1 in general, which is in particular a drum medium tom, comprising a drum 2, a drum head 3 on one side of the drum 2, a timbre skin 4 on the opposite side of the drum, two strappings 5 of which one is connected to the periphery of one skin 3 and the other is connected to the periphery of the other skin 4, and tie rods 6 allowing each strapping 5 to be pulled in a direction opposite to the corresponding end of the barrel 2, in order to exert tension on the skin 3 or 4.
  • a drum 1 in general, which is in particular a drum medium tom, comprising a drum 2, a drum head 3 on one side of the drum 2, a timbre skin 4 on the opposite side of the drum, two strappings 5 of which one is connected to the periphery of one skin 3 and the other is connected to the periphery of the other skin 4, and tie rods 6 allowing each strapping 5 to be pulled in a direction opposite to the corresponding end of the barrel 2, in order to exert tension on the
  • each skin 3 or 4 is connected by its periphery to a hoop 7 slidably engaged on the shaft 2, and the corresponding strapping 5 has a peripheral opening 8 allowing it to be engaged on this hoop 7.
  • the strapping 5 presses on this hoop 7 to tension skin 3 or 4.
  • Strapping 5 also includes a groove 10 opening on its axial side opposite opening 8 and extending over the entire circumference of the strapping. This groove 10 is intended to receive hook-shaped end portions 11 that comprise the tie rods 6.
  • Each tie rod 6 comprises, in the example shown, two of these portions 11 at these two ends, two threaded rods 12 with inverted pitches, one of which is integral with one of the portions 11 and the other is integral with the other portion 11, and a nut 13 receiving these two rods, screwed into it; the operation of the nut 13 in one direction or the other makes it possible to screw or unscrew the rods 12 relative to it, therefore to move the portions 11 away from or closer to each other, and, this way, to increase or decrease the tension exerted on a strapping 5.
  • the barrel 2 comprises a rail 15 fixed to the outside of it, substantially halfway up its height, therefore halfway between the strappings 5.
  • This rail 15 extends over the entire circumference of the barrel 2 and form, on two opposite axial sides, two grooves 16 which are continuous over the entire length of the rail 15.
  • These grooves 16 have a section substantially identical to that of the groove 10 and are able to receive in them the end portions 11 of the tie rods 6.
  • the user can choose to set up a determined number, which he chooses, of tie rods 6 between the strapping 5 associated with the skin 3 and the rail 15, and a determined number, which he also chooses, of tie rods 6 between strapping 5 associated with skin 4 and rail 15, the two numbers of tie rods 6 possibly being different from each other; moreover, the user can choose, for each series of tie rods 6, the angular positions of these tie rods on the barrel 2, these positions possibly being different from one series to another and possibly not being regularly distributed over the circumference of the was.
  • the user is able to obtain very different sounds from one zone of the striking head to another, and from one drum from one drum kit to another, and therefore to personalize the sound that these drums can produce.
  • the picture 2 shows a drum floor tom 1, whose shell 2 has a greater height than the shell of the medium tom shown on the figure 1 ; in this case, the barrel 2 comprises two rails 15a, 15b, one of which is dedicated to the tensioning of the skin 3 and the other is dedicated to the tensioning of the skin 4; each rail 15a, 15b comprises a single groove 16 as mentioned above, opening on its axial side opposite to the strapping 5 corresponding.
  • the invention provides a drum having decisive advantages, mentioned above, compared to a drum according to the prior art.
