Definitions
- the present invention relates to an impedance variator for a wind instrument.
- the present invention also relates to a wind instrument including such an impedance variator, more particularly the impedance variator according to the invention is in particular, but not exclusively, intended for a trumpet or a cornet.
- Impedance variators are known in the state of the art such as:
- this impedance variator is no longer used at present but it required a modification of the instrument with drilling and welding.
- this impedance variator is used for wind instruments but it has a very large number of different materials that the musician must choose to obtain the desired sound. Furthermore, this impedance variator includes the assembly of two plates to each other with elastic bracelets, which is complex and visually unattractive.
- Document US 7220903 discloses an assembly for a wind instrument mouthpiece in which a retention plate with tabs conforms to the shape of the grooves present on the mouthpiece. This plate is adjustable by a screwing action to apply variable pressure to the base of the blade.
- the invention aims to remedy this state of affairs.
- one objective of the invention is to provide an impedance variator that is easy to install on the wind instrument and very effective in reducing or even eliminating non-harmonic sounds.
- a complementary objective is to propose an inexpensive impedance variator.
- an impedance variator in the form of a brass tube enclosing a tubular portion or cylindrical of the wind instrument (excluding the mouthpiece), said impedance variator being further provided with at least one permanent magnet.
- the solution proposed by the invention is an impedance variator to limit or eliminate the parasitic harmonics of a wind musical instrument, the impedance variator comprising at least one permanent magnet.
- the impedance variator is remarkable in that it comprises the impedance variator comprises a brass tube intended to surround a substantially tubular or cylindrical portion of the wind instrument and in that the variator impedance comprises means for attaching the tube to said portion of the wind instrument, wherein the attachment means comprises a plurality of endless screws each penetrating through the tube, the inner end of each endless screw end bearing against the outer surface of the portion of the wind instrument, the penetration length of each worm screw inside the tube being adjustable, in which the worm screws are distributed or arranged around the circumference of the tube, forming between them an angle of between 100° and 140°.
- substantially tubular or cylindrical is understood to mean in connection with a portion of the wind instrument the fact that this portion has a tubular or cylindrical section, or even substantially as such, that is to say say that this portion can be inscribed between two tubes of different diameters or two cylinders of different diameters.
- a remarkable effect of the device according to the invention resides in the sound timbre which is improved in a particularly significant manner.
- this impedance variator fits perfectly into the wind instrument and is visually difficult to detect.
- this impedance variator can be dismantled very easily and quickly, in particular to transfer it to another wind instrument, the brass being colored very close to the color of the wind instrument.
- impedance measurement tests at the output of the wind instrument have been carried out and show a very significant improvement in this output impedance, in other words the parasitic sounds are well eliminated. The result is a round, full, powerful sound, facilitating the playing of the instrumentalist on the entire range of the instrument.
- the impedance variator also called “booster” with regard to its effect on sound timbre, was tested at the Cotti de la Musique in Marseille and showed exceptional qualities.
- the feeling as to the suppression of parasitic harmonic frequencies is immediate and the impedance variator or Booster according to the invention facilitates the precision of the note attacks.
- the sound is rounded and access to the bass and treble registers is greatly facilitated.
- the particular adjustment of the impedance variator belongs to each musician (one/his instrumentalist) insofar as the latter wants a more or less bright or more or less high sound, or even a clearer sound or on the contrary darker. To do this, the impedance variator will be placed at different places on the instrument and mounted more or less tight against a wall of the instrument.
- the brass tube has a thickness of between 1 mm and 3 mm, preferably a thickness of 2 mm.
- the fastening means comprises a plurality of endless screws each penetrating through the tube, the inner end of each endless screw bearing against the external surface of the portion of the wind instrument, the length of penetration of each endless screw inside the tube being adjustable.
- the fixing means further comprises at least one brass adjustment wheel, fixed to the outer end of a worm screw, for adjusting the length of penetration of the endless screw into the tube.
- This or these endless screws also referred to as adjustment screws, come into contact with the walls of the portion of the wind instrument.
- each endless screw has at its outer end a brass adjustment wheel.
- the endless screws are distributed or arranged around the circumference of the tube, forming between them an angle of between 100° and 140°, preferably an angle of 120°.
