[0032] like Figures 1-9 As shown, this utility model provides a multifunctional nine-hole wind instrument, including a tube body 1. The upper end of the tube body 1 is a mouthpiece-shaped conical tube structure 11. The front of the tube body 1 is provided with a first hole 21, a second hole 22, a third hole 23, a fourth hole 24, a fifth hole 25, and a sixth hole 26 in sequence along the axial direction. The side of the tube body 1 is provided with a first side hole 31 and a second side hole 32, and the first side hole 31 is located on the lower right side in front of the first hole 21. The second side hole 32 is located on the lower left side between the third hole 25 and the fourth hole 26. The back of the tube body 1 is provided with a back hole 4, which is located on the back side between the fifth hole 25 and the sixth hole 26.
[0033] Specifically, this multi-functional nine-hole wind instrument can produce sound directly through lip vibration, similar to a Western brass instrument (horn), via the mouthpiece-shaped conical tube structure 11 of the tube body 1, producing a sound similar to a man's vocal tone, without the need for a reed 7. Alternatively, a connecting tube 6 and a reed 7 assembly can be inserted into the mouthpiece-shaped conical tube structure 11 for sound production. This adds more functionality and broadens its applicability.
[0034] This multi-functional nine-hole wind instrument has nine tone holes. The pitch order of these holes, when played with the full cover for bass 5 and the three holes for 2 and 3 as 1, allows for the playing of bass 5, #5, 6, #6, 7, middle 1, #1, 2, #2, 3, 4, #4, and 5. Adding the ability to play an octave higher using the same fingering allows for the playing of 24 notes. It belongs to the chromatic scale.
[0035] The multi-functional nine-hole wind instrument differs from the traditional suona in that the pitch of the tone holes and their correspondence with the fingers on the two instruments are different. The traditional suona has no side holes, while the multi-functional wind instrument has two. For example, using the same right pinky finger to open or cover the tone hole, the multi-functional wind instrument produces a low #5 (bow) in solfège, while the traditional suona produces a low 6 (bow). Similarly, each finger corresponds to a different tone hole on each instrument.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] The lower end of the tube body 1 is provided with tuning holes 5. There are multiple tuning holes 5, which are arranged around the circumference of the tube body 1. The number of tuning holes 5 is 1 to 6.
[0038] Specifically, side hole 31 and side hole 32 are located on opposite sides of the tube body 1, making fingering more convenient. Specific fingering instructions will be explained later. The tuning holes 5 at the bottom of the instrument have 1 to 6 holes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 holes). Depending on the desired pitch, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 holes may be selected.
[0039] Example 3
[0040] like Figures 2-9 As shown, it also includes a connecting pipe 6, which is inserted into the upper port of the pipe body 1. It also includes a whistle 7, which is inserted into the upper port of the connecting pipe 6. It also includes an air baffle 8, which is fitted onto the connecting pipe 6. A padding layer 61 surrounds the lower end of the connecting pipe 6, and when the connecting pipe 6 is inserted into the upper port of the pipe body 1, the padding layer 61 is located between the connecting pipe 6 and the pipe body 1. The padding layer 61 is made of cork.
[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, a connecting tube 6 is inserted into the mouthpiece-shaped conical tube structure 11 of the tube body 1. A reed 7 is inserted into the connecting tube 6 and a baffle plate 8 is fitted onto it. By using the reed 7, which is similar to that of a suona, the sound is similar to that of a suona. A cork padding layer 61 is surrounded on the connecting tube 6 to improve the tightness and firmness of the insertion into the mouthpiece-shaped conical tube structure 11. The connecting tube 6, the reed 7, and the baffle plate 8 are existing technical structures of traditional suonas, and their structure and principle will not be described in detail here.
