Problems solved by technology

[0018] The reduction in quality has undoubtedly been created by the shortening of the key length and the same problem has been created by the shortening of the depth of the soundboard, in addition to the above-mentioned problems, there are additional problems, that is, for professional and aspiring other pianos. Difficulties caused by the practice of the master, these players also give concerts with a concert grand piano in a correspondingly large space, because the salon grand piano used for practice purposes brings other performance sensations as already mentioned and different voices
The piano is not only quieter or has a lower volume, but the piano also plays differently and in this way can make it difficult for the user to prepare for his concert

Embodiment Construction

[0054] figure 1 The soundboard 10 is shown schematically in plan view. The soundboard 10 is installed in a grand piano, such as a concert or salon grand piano, for which only the keyboard 12 is shown here. Other parts of a grand piano, such as strings, bridges, lids and similar parts, are listed for greater clarity in figure 1 not shown in .

[0055] exist figure 1 A preferred embodiment of a soundboard 10 for a keyboard instrument according to the invention is shown by the outer contour A. The outer contour comprises an outer front edge 14 extending almost parallel to the keyboard 12 in the installed state, and a left outer edge 16a adjoining the front edge on the left and a right outer edge 18a adjoining the front edge on the right. , the right outer edge is here clearly shorter than the left outer edge 16a. Furthermore, the outer profile also has an outer trailing edge 20a. The outer trailing edge is connected to the left outer edge 16a by an outer radius 22a and to t...

Abstract

The invention relates to a keyboard instrument with a keyboard (12) and a sound board (10) comprising a front edge (14) which runs substantially parallel to the keyboard (12) when mounted, and comprising a first lateral edge (16a) which forms a first angle (A) with the front edge (14), and comprising a second lateral edge (18a) which forms a second angle (B) with the front edge (14). Strings are also provided which can be induced to vibrate by keys of the keyboard (12) that are assigned to each string. There is also at least one sound bridge (36) which is secured to the sound board (10) and on which the other end of the strings which faces away from the keys is supported. The first angle (A) is >90o. The sound bridge (36) extends at a right angle on the sound board (10) approximately as far as a line that runs rearwards from the intersection of the front edge (14) of the sound board (10) and the first lateral edge (16a).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a keyboard musical instrument, such as in particular a grand piano.
