Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a plucked string instrument, in particular to a double-beam konghou. Background Art

[0002] The konghou is a traditional stringed instrument in ancient China. It was originally called "Kanhou" or "Konghou". In ancient times, it was used in court music and also spread among the people. In ancient times, there were three types of konghou: horizontal konghou, vertical konghou, and phoenix-head konghou. It was no longer popular in the late 14th century and gradually disappeared. Only some konghou patterns can be seen on murals and reliefs in the past. Judging from the vertical konghou depicted in a large number of ancient performance images and the remains of Chinese Tang Dynasty lacquer konghou and snail konghou preserved in the Shosoin Repository in Nara, Japan, its sound box (resonance box) is set on a curved wood that bends upward.

[0003] The modern konghou is a new instrument developed by combining the harp and the guzheng, or it can be said to be a reformed type of the harp, that is, a double-row string harp. With the development of the modern konghou, the word "konghou" now increasingly refers to the modern konghou. The modern konghou belongs to the ranks of the world's harps. In appearance, it has double rows of strings (36 strings per row), while the harp has a single row of strings. The modern konghou has a bridge (refer to the bridge of the guzheng), while the harp does not. The modern konghou has a phoenix looking back on the bridge, which is a representative symbol of Chinese traditional culture. The modern konghou has borrowed a lot from the harp in terms of playing techniques, and is now often used for solo, duet and accompaniment for singing and dancing. The sound box (resonance box) of modern konghou is also set on the upward curved wood. In terms of the range, large professional konghou has more than six octaves, even up to seven octaves, while ordinary konghou still has five octaves. When playing, the main soundboard vibrates, and the upper soundboard does not vibrate when playing because it is very thick. The timbre of the treble and bass areas of modern konghou is not good. Specifically, the treble area is not bright, and the bass area is not thick and round enough. The penetration of the piano sound is not strong, which needs to be further improved. The main reason is that the resonance box cannot meet the requirements of good resonance and vibration from the treble area to the bass area, that is, it cannot adapt to the resonance and vibration of the wide frequency changes in the treble area, the middle area and the bass area at the same time. Further research shows that there are many factors that affect the resonance and vibration in the resonance box. In addition to the material and thickness of the panel and the bottom plate, the internal structure and construction of the resonance box have a greater impact. However, the resonance box of the existing konghou is not designed properly, which is not conducive to exerting good sound wave resonance and vibration from the high pitch range to the low pitch range.

[0004] In view of this, how to improve the resonance box of the existing konghou, especially how to improve the internal structure and construction of the resonance box is a research topic of the present invention. Summary of the invention

[0021] The design principle and concept of the present invention are: for the konghou, there are many factors that affect its timbre and penetration, such as the material, thickness, internal structure, etc. of the resonance box. In order to solve the problem that the existing konghou resonance box cannot take into account the high, medium and low frequency ranges while having good resonance timbre and penetration, the present invention has been thoroughly improved mainly from the perspective of the resonance box, especially the internal structure of the resonance box. It is specifically embodied in the following aspects: First, two lower sound beams are fixed and arranged in parallel on the inner wall of the lower sound board; second, horizontal and vertical grooves (i.e., the first groove and the second groove) are opened on the inner wall of the lower sound board to form a lower horizontal sound tunnel and a lower vertical sound tunnel. The present invention aims at the problem that the existing konghou has poor high pitch, not enough mellow and round bass, and weak penetration of the sound, and conducts in-depth discussion and research on the resonance box of the konghou, especially the resonance box structure and the sound generation mechanism, and finds out that the main reason for the poor timbre and volume of the existing konghou in the high and low pitches and the insufficient penetration is due to the unreasonable design of the resonance box, which causes the sound waves to fail to produce good resonance and vibration in the resonance box during performance. Accordingly, the inventor breaks the constraints of the traditional konghou resonance box design in the past, and boldly proposes the improved design scheme of the present invention, which solves the problem that the konghou has poor high pitch, not enough mellow bass, and weak penetration of the sound from the perspective of vibration, resonance, and sound generation. Practice has proved that the improved design scheme has outstanding substantive characteristics and significant technical progress, and has achieved obvious technical effects.

[0022] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages and effects compared with the prior art (described in detail with reference to the best implementation mode, i.e., the embodiments of the present invention):

[0023] 1. The present invention is provided with a double sound beam structure (i.e., two first upper sound beams, two second upper sound beams, and two lower sound beams) on the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board, and the lower sound board. Since the bass has a larger amplitude and lower frequency than the treble, the bass resonance is concentrated in the central area of ​​the resonance box, and the treble resonance is concentrated in the surrounding edge areas of the resonance box, which strengthens the strength of the central area of ​​the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board, and the lower sound board, and plays an important role in improving the timbre and penetration of the bass area. On the other hand, the strength of the central area of ​​the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board, and the lower sound board is strengthened, which relatively changes the thickness difference between the central area and the surrounding edge areas of the resonance box, and also has a good effect on improving the timbre and penetration of the treble area.

[0024] 2. The present invention is directed to the resonance box, and horizontal and vertical grooves (i.e., the third groove to the second groove) are respectively opened on the inner walls of the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board, and the lower sound board. These grooves form horizontal sound tunnels and vertical sound tunnels (i.e., sound tunnels) on their respective board walls. Since the bass has a larger amplitude and lower frequency than the treble, the bass resonance is concentrated in the central area of ​​the resonance box, and the treble resonance is concentrated in the surrounding edge areas of the resonance box. The string vibration is collected by the central area where the sound tunnels intersect, and is quickly transmitted to the surrounding areas of the resonance box through these sound tunnels, which plays a key role in improving the timbre and penetration of the treble area, and also plays a good role in improving the timbre and penetration of the bass area.

[0025] 3. The present invention designs the sound beam into a bridge-type sound beam structure, especially a bridge hole is designed on one side of the sound beam, so that the sound beam is like a bridge arch structure. When such a sound beam is erected on the sound tunnel, it is more conducive to transmitting vibration through the sound tunnel and more conducive to resonance of the resonance box.

[0026] 4. The present invention adopts a combination design of transverse sound beams, longitudinal sound beams and grooves on the inner walls of the first upper soundboard, the second upper soundboard and the lower soundboard, which actually divides the space corresponding to the inner side of the first upper soundboard into eight resonance areas, divides the space corresponding to the inner side of the second upper soundboard into eight resonance areas, and divides the space corresponding to the inner side of the lower soundboard into eight resonance areas, totaling 24 resonance areas. When the konghou is played, the vibration of the strings is first transmitted to the central area where the sound tunnels intersect, and then transmitted to these 24 resonance areas through the sound tunnels, and resonance and vibration are generated, thereby amplifying the string sound into the resonance sound of the resonance box. Before the improvement, only five sound wave quantities can be generated when the konghou is played, that is, the space corresponding to the inner side of the first upper soundboard is a resonance area, the space corresponding to the inner side of the second upper soundboard is a resonance area, and the space corresponding to the inner side of the lower soundboard is a resonance area, totaling three resonance areas. Each resonance area generates a sound wave quantity, plus a string wave quantity, plus a percussion wave quantity, totaling five sound wave quantities. The improved konghou of the present invention can generate 26 sound waves when playing, among which 24 resonance areas generate 24 sound waves, plus one string wave, plus one percussion wave, totaling 26 sound waves. The sound wave amount is the number of sound waves. For a plucked string instrument in a specific resonance box, in addition to one string wave and one percussion wave, it mainly depends on the number of resonance areas in the resonance box. Usually, each resonance area of ​​the instrument generates one sound wave when playing, and the number of sound waves generated depends on the number of resonance areas. In addition, the sound wave amount directly affects the timbre, penetration and volume of the instrument. Therefore, the design of the present invention can significantly improve the timbre of the treble and bass areas, and increase the penetration of the treble and bass areas.

[0027] 5. The through holes on the transverse sound beam of the present invention and the holes between the transverse sound beam and the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board and the lower sound board are channels between the resonance areas in the resonance box. This channel design is conducive to the mutual transmission of sound waves, resonance and vibration.

[0028] 6. The present invention fixes a reinforcing plate (i.e., the first reinforcing plate and the second reinforcing plate) between two adjacent first upper sound beams and the second upper sound beams, which can increase the strength of the middle area of ​​the first upper sound board and the second upper sound board, especially between the sound beams, and can increase the load when the sound beams resonate, further improving the timbre and penetration of the bass area. On the other hand, the central area of ​​the resonance box sound board is strengthened, and the strength gap with the edge areas around the resonance box sound board is relatively widened, which is also conducive to improving the timbre and penetration of the treble area.

[0029] 7. The third groove to the second groove of the present invention are all arc-shaped grooves, which can minimize the thickness mutation of the first upper sound board, the second upper sound board and the lower sound board, thereby affecting the resonance and vibration of the resonance box.

[0030] The above advantages and effects are all described in the best way. However, it should be particularly emphasized that for the present invention, the measures of setting a double sound beam structure and opening a groove on the inner wall of the lower sound board are more important than adopting equivalent measures on the inner walls of the first upper sound board and the second upper sound board, and the effect and effect are relatively better. The reason is that the lower sound board is connected to the strings, while the first upper sound board and the second upper sound board are not directly connected to the strings. Therefore, setting a double sound beam structure and opening a groove on the inner wall of the lower sound board are the key to solving the technical problem of the present invention, and setting a double sound beam structure and opening a groove on the inner walls of the first upper sound board and the second upper sound board are icing on the cake for the present invention, which is easy to understand by those skilled in the art.

[0060] The following is an explanation of other implementations and structural changes of the present invention:

[0061] 1. In the above embodiment, the two first upper sound beams 11 are arranged in parallel (see Figure 2 ). The two second upper beams 12 are arranged in parallel (see Figure 1 ). The two lower sound beams 13 are arranged in parallel (see Figure 2). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the two first upper sound beams 11 do not necessarily have to be parallel, and the two second upper sound beams 12 and the two lower sound beams 13 do not necessarily have to be parallel, but parallel arrangement is optimal, which is easily understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.

[0062] 2. In the above embodiments, the lower soundboard 3, the first upper soundboard 1 and the second upper soundboard 2 are all provided with double sound beam structures and grooves. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The double sound beams and grooves on the inner walls of the first upper soundboard 1 and the second upper soundboard 2 can be cancelled or changed to other structural forms. It is also feasible to only retain the technical measures provided on the inner wall of the lower soundboard 3, but the effect is slightly worse. For the resonance box of the konghou, the lower soundboard 3 is more important than the first upper soundboard 1 and the second upper soundboard 2. The reason is that the lower soundboard 3 is connected to the strings, while the first upper soundboard 1 and the second upper soundboard 2 are not directly related to the strings, which is easy to understand for those skilled in the art.

[0063] 3. In the above embodiments, a double sound beam structure is provided on the inner wall of the lower sound board 3, the first upper sound board 1 and the second upper sound board 2. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the two lower sound beams 13 can be changed in form to four lower sound beams 13 used in parallel. For the present invention, although the number and form of the four lower sound beams 13 and the two lower sound beams 13 are different, their essence is the same. Assuming that the two outer sound beams of the four lower sound beams 13 are close to the two inner sound beams, it can be equivalent to a double sound beam. Therefore, it can be considered that this change does not bring unexpected effects and should be understood as substantially equivalent. Similarly, the double sound beam structure on the first upper sound board 1 and the second upper sound board 2 should also include such a change. In the present invention, the double sound beam includes the meaning of symmetrical arrangement of even number sound beams, so the symmetrical arrangement of six sound beams is also an equivalent change mode of the present invention. This is easy to understand for those skilled in the art.

[0064] 4. In the above embodiment, three first grooves 20 are provided on the inner wall of the lower sound board 3 (see Figure 3 ), three third grooves 16 are provided on the inner wall of the first upper sound board 1 (see Figure 3 ), three fifth grooves 18 are provided on the inner wall of the second upper sound board 2 (see Figure 1 ). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the number of the first groove 20, the third groove 16 and the fifth groove 18 can be one, two, four or five. Such changes can be determined according to actual conditions. In essence, the number of the first groove 20, the third groove 16 and the fifth groove 18 is at least one.

[0065] 5. In the above embodiment, the transverse beam 26 provided in the resonance box is bilaterally symmetrical with respect to the center plane of the second groove 21 (see Figure 2). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the two transverse beams 26 can be combined into an integral structure to achieve the above. Figure 2 The middle parts of the two transverse beams 26 are connected together as an integral transverse beam 26. In the above embodiment, the transverse beam 26 is decomposed into two left and right parts. This is easy to understand and accept by those skilled in the art.

[0066] 6. In the above embodiment, a first upper bridge hole 23 is provided on the first upper sound beam 11, a second upper bridge hole 24 is provided on the second upper sound beam 12, and a lower bridge hole 25 is provided on the lower sound beam 13. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the first upper bridge hole 23 may not be provided, and the second upper bridge hole 24 and the lower bridge hole 25 may not be provided, or even only one or two of the first upper sound beam 11, the second upper sound beam 12, and the lower sound beam 13 may be provided with bridge holes. This is a change that is easily understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.

[0067] 7. In the above embodiment, a first reinforcing plate 14 is fixedly mounted between the two first upper sound beams 11 (see Figure 2 ), a second reinforcing plate 15 is fixedly mounted between the two second upper sound beams 12 (see Figure 2 ). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the first reinforcing plate 14 may not be provided, and the two first upper sound beams 11 may be suspended in the resonance box. Similarly, the second reinforcing plate 15 may not be provided, and the two second upper sound beams 12 may be suspended in the resonance box.

[0068] 8. In the above embodiments, the third groove 16 to the second groove 21 are all arc-shaped grooves. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the grooves can be designed into other shapes, such as V-shaped, U-shaped, W-shaped and other concave structures, but the arc-shaped groove is the best design. This is easily understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.

[0069] 9. In the above embodiment, the two first upper sound beams 11 have the same shape and size (see Fig.10 ), the two second upper sound beams 12 have the same shape and size (see Fig.12 ), the two lower sound beams 13 have the same shape and size (see Figure 8 ). However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The shapes and sizes of the two first upper sound beams 11 may be different, the shapes and sizes of the two second upper sound beams 12 may be different, and the shapes and sizes of the two lower sound beams 13 may be different. Specifically, it can be determined when the resonance box is adjusted for timbre and sound quality. This is easily understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.

[0070] 10. In the above embodiments, the resonance box (sound box) of the konghou is an arc-shaped hollow box (see Figure 1), the arc-shaped hollow box is composed of a first upper sound board 1, a second upper sound board 2, a lower sound board 3, a first upper frame board 4, a second upper frame board 5, a first lower frame board 6 and a second lower frame board 7 (see Figure 3 ), wherein the first upper frame plate 4 and the second upper frame plate 5 serve as the support frame at the top center of the resonance box, and the first lower frame plate 6 and the second lower frame plate 7 serve as the support frame at both sides of the bottom of the resonance box (see Figure 2 and Figure 3 ). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the top central support frame and the bottom two side support frames may be omitted, and the first upper sound board 1, the second upper sound board 2 and the lower sound board 3 may be directly assembled into the resonance box (sound box) of the konghou. However, in the above embodiment, the top central support frame and the bottom two side support frames are used as the best design. This is easily understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.

[0071] 11. Since the innovations of the present invention are all concentrated on the resonance box, this embodiment will focus on describing the structure and construction of the konghou resonance box, while other structures can be considered to be implemented using existing technologies. The other structures of the konghou described at the beginning of this embodiment except the resonance box are not intended to be limitations of the present invention.

[0072] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with the technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly, and they cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
