Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electric guitar maintenance, and specifically relates to a multi-functional clamp for electric guitars. Background Technology

[0002] The electric guitar is a product of modern science and technology, differing significantly from the traditional guitar in both appearance and sound. The body is made of new hardwood and features volume and pitch controls, as well as a tremolo mechanism. With the use of effects pedals, the electric guitar possesses great expressiveness and holds an important place in modern music. It is now primarily used for accompaniment.

[0003] When using an electric guitar, regular maintenance is necessary to clean the body and strings, apply oil, and prevent wear and rust from long-term use. A patent announcement number “CN202121735968.0” retrieved from the China Patent Network describes a multi-functional clamp for an electric guitar, comprising a semi-circular plate. The upper surface of the semi-circular plate has an annular groove. A rectangular sleeve is fixedly connected to the front side of the upper surface of the semi-circular plate. A rectangular groove is formed on the front side of the rectangular sleeve. A spring is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the inner wall of the rectangular groove. A rectangular rod is fixedly connected to the front side of the spring. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the rear side of the upper end of the rectangular rod. Its beneficial effects are as follows: by setting up rollers, sponge rings, and connecting rings, as the handle is pulled to move the platform along the slide bar left and right, the sponge rings rub against the electric guitar strings, causing the rollers to rotate synchronously. Because the sponge rings and connecting rings are made of two materials with drastically different oil-guiding properties, excessive lubricating grease is effectively prevented from being drawn from the oil reservoir during one rotation of the rollers, preventing grease from dripping onto the guitar soundboard and causing contamination and waste. The process of applying oil to the strings by clamping them between two adjacent sponge rings results in a better, more even, and more efficient oiling effect compared to traditional manual oiling. While the comparison document makes oiling more even, due to the different sizes and positions of the recesses on the sides of electric guitars, this application, by pulling apart two semi-circular plates and fitting their curved surfaces onto the corresponding curved recesses on the side of the electric guitar for fixation, cannot guarantee that the device can be stably fixed to the electric guitar. Therefore, it is not suitable for most electric guitar sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional clamp for electric guitars to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A multi-functional clamp for electric guitar includes a housing and an oil reservoir. Support legs are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the housing. A clamping mechanism is fixedly installed on the front of the housing. A pushing mechanism is fixedly installed inside the housing. A horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the pushing mechanism. Multiple sets of small springs are fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate. A mounting plate is fixedly connected between the bottoms of the small springs. Rubber plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the mounting plate. Circular grooves are formed on the inner sides of the rubber plates. A sponge rubber ring is fitted onto the outer side of the oil reservoir. One end of the oil reservoir has a threaded opening. A sealing plug is threaded into the inside of the threaded opening. A cylinder is fixedly connected to both the outer side of the sealing plug and the other end of the oil reservoir. The cylinders are rotatably inserted into the circular grooves. Multiple sets of oil leakage holes are evenly spaced at the bottom of the oil reservoir.

[0007] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, the clamping mechanism includes a mounting frame, a first electric push rod, a clamping plate, and a rubber pad. The mounting frame is fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the front of the housing. The first electric push rod is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame. The output end of the first electric push rod passes through the bottom of the mounting frame and is fixedly connected to the clamping plate. The top of the clamping plate is adhered with a rubber pad.

[0008] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, each of the mounting frames has a heat dissipation vent on its top, and a dustproof mesh is fixedly connected inside each heat dissipation vent.

[0009] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, the bottom of each of the legs is glued with a soft rubber block, which is made of rubber.

[0010] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, the pushing mechanism includes a second electric push rod, an opening, and a connecting block. The second electric push rod is fixedly installed inside the housing. An opening is provided on the right side of the housing. The output end of the second electric push rod passes through the opening and is fixedly connected to the connecting block. The other end of the connecting block is connected to the cross plate.

[0011] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, a handle is fixedly connected to the top of the housing, and an anti-slip rubber sleeve is adhered to the outside of the handle.

[0012] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, a partition is fixedly connected to the upper inner end of the housing, and a battery plate is fixedly installed on the top of the partition.

[0013] Furthermore, as a preferred technical solution, a control button is fixedly installed on the left side of the housing.

[0014] In summary, the present invention has the following main beneficial effects:

[0015] First, when installing this device, the clamping plate is in the extended position, positioned at the bottom of the instrument body, with the housing placed on the instrument surface. The support legs are used to lift the housing to a certain height to prevent it from pressing on the strings and other components. The soft rubber block is used to improve the stability of the support legs when they are on the instrument surface. The inside of the mounting frame is used to install the first electric push rod. When the first electric push rod is activated, it can drive the clamping plate to retract, so that the bottom of the clamping plate is in close contact with the instrument body. The rubber pad on the top of the clamping plate is used to improve the stability during clamping, thereby achieving the purpose of stably clamping the device on the instrument body.

[0016] Secondly, one end of the oil reservoir has a threaded opening, through which lubricating oil can be injected into the oil reservoir. Afterwards, the sealing plug is threaded back into the threaded opening to seal it. The oil reservoir is installed by inserting the cylinders at both ends into the circular grooves. A sponge rubber ring is fitted on the outside of the oil reservoir. As the crossbar moves, the oil reservoir will roll on the strings. Since the neck of the instrument has a certain undulation, the small spring can deform appropriately when the oil reservoir rolls, allowing the oil reservoir to roll stably along the undulation of the neck. During rolling, lubricating oil will leak in through the oil leakage hole and then seep into the sponge rubber ring. The lubricating oil on the sponge rubber ring can automatically oil the strings.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] refer to Figure 1-7 The multi-functional clamp for electric guitar described in this embodiment includes a housing 1 and an oil reservoir 2. Support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the housing 1. A clamping mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the front of the housing 1. A pushing mechanism 5 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. A horizontal plate 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the pushing mechanism 5. Multiple sets of small springs 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 6. A mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected between the bottoms of the small springs 7. Rubber plates 9 are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the mounting plate 8. Circular grooves 10 are formed on the inner sides of the rubber plates 9. A sponge rubber ring 11 is fitted onto the outer side of the oil reservoir 2. A threaded opening 12 is formed at one end of the oil reservoir 2. A sealing plug 13 is threaded into the inside of the threaded opening 12. A cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing plug 13 and the other end of the oil reservoir 2. The cylinders 14 are rotatably inserted into the circular grooves 10. Multiple sets of oil leakage holes 15 are evenly spaced at the bottom of the oil reservoir 2.

[0028] To achieve stable clamping on the electric guitar for automatic string oiling, the housing 1 is placed on the guitar surface. Support legs 3 are used to raise the housing 1 to a certain height to prevent it from pressing on the strings or other components. The clamping mechanism 4 engages to clamp the housing 1 onto the guitar surface, ensuring its stability during string oiling. The pushing mechanism 5 pushes out the crossbar 6, and the mounting plate 8 at the bottom of the crossbar 6 moves along the strings. The rubber plate 9 at the bottom of the mounting plate 8 is made of plastic and has a certain degree of elasticity, allowing for slight bending. The oil reservoir 2 has a threaded port 12 at one end, through which lubricating oil can be injected into the reservoir 2. Then, the sealing plug 13 is threaded back into the threaded opening 12 to seal the threaded opening 12. The installation of the oil reservoir 2 is completed by inserting the cylinders 14 at both ends of the oil reservoir 2 into the circular grooves 10. The outer side of the oil reservoir 2 is fitted with a sponge rubber ring 11. As the cross plate 6 moves, the oil reservoir 2 will roll on the strings. At this time, the lubricating oil will leak in through the oil leakage hole 15 and then seep into the sponge rubber ring 11. The lubricating oil on the sponge rubber ring 11 can automatically oil the strings. Since the neck of the instrument will have a certain undulation, when the oil reservoir 2 rolls, the small spring 7 can be deformed appropriately, so that the oil reservoir 2 can roll stably along the undulation of the neck.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 Based on Embodiment 1, in order to achieve the purpose of stably clamping the device onto the piano body, this embodiment has made an innovative design to the clamping method. Specifically, the clamping mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 401, a first electric push rod 402, a clamping plate 403, and a rubber pad 404. The mounting frame 401 is fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the front of the housing 1. The first electric push rod 402 is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame 401. The output end of the first electric push rod 402 passes through the bottom of the mounting frame 401 and is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 403. The top of the clamping plate 403 is glued with adhesive. A pad 404 is provided, and a mounting frame 401 is set inside the mounting frame 401 for installing a first electric push rod 402. When the first electric push rod 402 is working, it can drive the clamping plate 403 to move. When installing the device, the clamping plate 403 is in the extended state, so that it is located at the bottom of the piano body. After the housing 1 is placed, the first electric push rod 402 drives the clamping plate 403 to retract, so that the bottom of the clamping plate 403 is in close contact with the piano body. The rubber pad 404 on the top of the clamping plate 403 is used to improve the stability during clamping, so as to ensure that the device can be stably clamped on the piano body.

[0031] refer to Figure 1-2In order to dissipate heat inside the mounting frame 401, the top of the mounting frame 401 in this embodiment is provided with heat dissipation vents 16, and dustproof nets 17 are fixedly connected inside the heat dissipation vents 16. The heat dissipation vents 16 are used to dissipate heat inside the mounting frame 401, and the dustproof nets 17 are used to protect the heat dissipation vents 16 to prevent external dust and impurities from entering the mounting frame 401 through the heat dissipation vents 16.

[0032] refer to Figure 1-3 In order to improve the stability of the housing 1 when it is on the piano surface, soft rubber blocks 18 are glued to the bottom of the legs 3 in this embodiment. The soft rubber blocks 18 are made of rubber. The soft rubber blocks 18 are used to improve the stability of the legs 3 when they are on the piano surface. The soft rubber blocks 18 are made of rubber so that they can undergo appropriate deformation in order to improve the stability of the housing 1.

[0033] Example 3

[0034] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 Based on Embodiment 2, this embodiment innovates the pushing method to achieve the purpose of moving the horizontal plate 6 left and right. Specifically, the pushing mechanism 5 includes a second electric push rod 501, an opening 502, and a connecting block 503. The second electric push rod 501 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. An opening 502 is opened on the right side of the housing 1. The output end of the second electric push rod 501 passes through the opening 502 and is fixedly connected to the connecting block 503. The other end of the connecting block 503 is connected to the horizontal plate 6. When the second electric push rod 501 is working, the connecting block 503 can move left and right through the opening 502, thereby moving the horizontal plate 6 left and right, and thus causing the oil reservoir 2 installed at the bottom of the horizontal plate 6 to roll on the strings.

[0035] refer to Figure 1-2 In order to facilitate carrying the device, a handle 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 1 in this embodiment. An anti-slip rubber sleeve 20 is glued to the outside of the handle 19. The handle 19 is provided to provide a force point for the user to carry the device. The anti-slip rubber sleeve 20 is used to improve the anti-slip performance when the user holds the handle 19.

[0036] refer to Figure 4 In order to provide power support for the operation of the device, in this embodiment, a partition 21 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner side of the housing 1, and a battery panel 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the partition 21. The partition 21 is used to divide the internal space of the housing 1 so as to install the battery panel 22, which is used to provide power support for the operation of the device.

[0037] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 In order to facilitate the operation of the device, a control button 23 is fixedly installed on the left side of the housing 1 in this embodiment. The control button 23 is connected to the electrical components on the device through a wire so that the user can control the operation of the device.

[0038] Operating principle and advantages: When installing this device, the clamping plate 403 is in the extended state, positioned at the bottom of the instrument body. The user places the housing 1 on the instrument surface. The support legs 3 are used to raise the housing 1 to a certain height to prevent it from pressing on the strings and other components. The soft rubber block 18 is used to improve the stability of the support legs 3 when they are on the instrument surface. The user operates the first electric push rod 402 inside the mounting frame 401 via the control button 23, which drives the clamping plate 403 to retract, so that the bottom of the clamping plate 403 is tightly against the instrument body, and the top of the clamping plate 403... The rubber pad 404 on the part is used to improve the stability during clamping, thereby stably clamping the device to the body of the instrument. The heat dissipation vent 16 is used to dissipate the heat inside the mounting frame 401. The dustproof net 17 is used to protect the heat dissipation vent 16 to prevent external dust and impurities from entering the mounting frame 401 through the heat dissipation vent 16. The rubber plate 9 at the bottom of the mounting plate 8 is made of plastic and has a certain degree of elasticity, so it can be slightly bent. One end of the oil reservoir 2 has a threaded port 12, through which lubricating oil can be injected into the oil reservoir 2. After that, the seal is closed. The threaded connection of the plug 13 back into the threaded opening 12 can seal the threaded opening 12. The oil reservoir 2 is installed by inserting the cylinders 14 at both ends into the circular grooves 10. A sponge rubber ring 11 is fitted onto the outside of the oil reservoir 2. The user operates the second electric push rod 501 via the control button 23 to push out the crossbar 6. As the crossbar 6 moves, the oil reservoir 2 will roll on the strings. Due to the slight undulation of the neck, the small spring 7 will deform appropriately when the oil reservoir 2 rolls. This allows the oil reservoir 2 to roll steadily along the neck of the instrument. During rolling, lubricating oil will leak in through the oil leakage hole 15 and then seep into the sponge rubber ring 11. The lubricating oil on the sponge rubber ring 11 can then automatically oil the strings. The handle 19 provides a point of force for the user to carry the device. The anti-slip rubber sleeve 20 improves the anti-slip properties when the user holds the handle 19. The partition 21 divides the internal space of the housing 1 to install the battery panel 22, which provides power support for the operation of the device.

[0039] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
