Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a new type of flute, in particular to a two-piece wooden new type of flute. Background Art
[0002] The new type of flute, also known as the eleven-hole flute, is a flute designed according to the principle of equal temperament. It was first invented by Ding Xilin in the 1930s AD. Compared with the traditional six-hole flute, the new type of flute newly adds five pressing sound holes to solve the disadvantage that the traditional six-hole flute is not easy to control the semitone.
[0003] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 , showing a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the new type of flute in the prior art. As Figure 1 shown, the new type of flute PA100 in the prior art includes a new type of flute body PA1 and a head plug (not shown in the figure). The new type of flute body PA1 is respectively provided with a first end opening PAH1 and a second end opening PAH2 at both ends, and the second end opening PAH2 communicates with the first end opening PAH1 through a blowing space (not shown in the figure).
[0004] The new type of flute body PA1 is respectively provided with a blowing sound hole PABH adjacent to the first end opening PAH1 and a plurality of pressing sound holes adjacent to the second end opening PAH2 on the outer peripheral wall (generally speaking, the new type of flute PA100 is provided with eleven pressing sound holes, and only one pressing sound hole PAPH is marked in Figure 1 ). The blowing sound hole PABH and the pressing sound holes are all communicated with the blowing space. Specifically, the eleven pressing sound holes respectively correspond to C#, C, B, Bb, A, G#, G, #F, F, E and D#, and are respectively pressed by the left thumb, the left index finger joint, the left index finger, the left middle finger, the left ring finger, the left little finger, the right thumb, the right index finger, the right middle finger, the right ring finger and the right little finger. In the prior art, the head plug is a cork, which is arranged in the blowing space adjacent to the first end opening PAH1 to close the first end opening PAH1.
[0005] However, in the prior art, most new type of flutes are made of bamboo as the material. Since the wall thickness of each bamboo tube is uneven, after being made into a new type of flute, it often has a poor roundness, which affects its volume and tone quality. In addition, since the pipe diameters of each bamboo are different, after being made into a new type of flute, it is impossible to have a standardized inner diameter. In other words, the inner diameters of each bamboo-made new type of flute are different, resulting in a gap in volume and tone quality. In addition, the new type of flutes in the prior art also generally have problems such as being difficult to carry and maintain due to their excessive length. Summary of the Utility Model

[0050] Compared with the prior art, the two-piece wooden new flute 100 in this embodiment only includes ten pressing sound holes PH1 to PH10. Specifically, the pressing sound hole corresponding to C and pressed by the left index finger joint is removed, and the sound of the scale C is supplemented in a cross-finger manner (releasing more than one pressing sound hole at the same time). Adjusting the scale by pressing or releasing the pressing sound holes PH1 to PH10 is the prior art and will not be elaborated in this embodiment. The auxiliary sound outlet openings SSO1 and SSO2 are provided adjacent to the sound outlet opening SO to adjust the sound sensitivity.
[0051] The wooden flute head tube 2 is assembled and fixed to the wooden flute body tube 1, and a second blowing space BS2 communicating with the first blowing space BS1 is provided inside, and a blowing sound hole BH communicating with the second blowing space BS2 is provided on the outer peripheral wall. The blowing sound hole BH is used for a player (not shown in the figure) to blow a blowing air flow BF into the second blowing space BS2, thereby generating a blowing sound wave PSW.
