Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a new flute, in particular to a new flute with a bass expansion component. Background Art
[0002] The new 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 flute adds five additional pressing sound holes to solve the disadvantage that the traditional six-hole flute is not easy to control semitones.
[0003] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 for a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the new flute in the prior art. As Figure 1 shown, the new flute PA100 in the prior art includes a new flute body PA1 and a head plug (not shown in the figure). The new 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 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 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 pitch range of the new flute in the prior art is from d1 to b2, that is to say, when all eleven pressing sound holes are fully covered, the sound of d1 can be emitted.
[0005] In the prior art, the head plug is a cork plug, which is arranged in the blowing space adjacent to the first end opening PAH1 to close the first end opening PAH1.
[0006] In order to increase the expressiveness of national music composition, composers often add many notes with pitches lower than d1 in the score. Since the new flute in the prior art can only emit the sound of d1 when all eleven sound holes are fully covered, the performer often prepares another flute with a relatively low pitch. In other words, it is necessary to exchange flutes back and forth during the performance to cover the entire pitch range, thereby increasing the burden on the performer during the performance. Summary of the Utility Model
[0007] In view of the fact that in the prior art, the performer needs to prepare an additional relatively low-pitched flute to play the bass (pitch lower than d1) that the new flute cannot play, which increases the burden on the performer when playing. Therefore, the main purpose of the utility model is to provide a new flute with a bass expansion component, which first assembles and fixes a flute tail pipe with a plurality of expansion sound holes to the new flute body, and then presses a key to make the key cover cover or move away from the expansion sound hole in a linked manner, so that the new flute can produce a sound with a pitch lower than d1, thereby solving the above problem.

[0048] Since the new flute with a bass expansion assembly provided by the present utility model can be widely applied to different types of new flutes, there are numerous combinations and variation implementation modes. Here, only one preferred embodiment is listed for specific illustration.
[0049] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5 , Figure 2 the three-dimensional schematic diagram of the new flute with a bass expansion assembly showing the preferred embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 3 the three-dimensional exploded schematic diagram of the new flute with a bass expansion assembly showing the preferred embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 4A three-dimensional schematic diagram of the bass augmentation component of the new flute with a bass augmentation component according to a preferred embodiment of the present utility model; and Figure 5 A three-dimensional exploded schematic diagram of the bass augmentation component of the new flute with a bass augmentation component according to a preferred embodiment of the present utility model.
[0050] As Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a new flute (hereinafter referred to as "new flute") 100 with a bass augmentation component includes a new flute body 1, a head plug component 2, and a bass augmentation component 3. The new flute body 1 is provided with a blowing sound hole BH and a plurality of pressing sound holes (only one pressing sound hole PH is marked) on its outer peripheral wall. In this embodiment, the new flute body 1 includes a head tube 11 and a body tube 12. The head tube 11 includes a body portion 111, a lip pad portion 112, and a first connecting portion 113. The body portion 111 is a hollow tube structure. The lip pad portion 112 protrudes integrally from the body portion 111 and is provided with the blowing sound hole BH. The first connecting portion 113 extends from the body portion adjacent to the body tube 12, and the outer diameter of the first connecting portion 113 is smaller than the inner diameter of the body tube 12 for inserting into the body tube 12 to assemble and fix the head tube 11 to the body tube 12.
[0051] The body tube 12 is provided with a plurality of pressing sound holes and is a hollow tube structure. Generally, a common new flute has eleven pressing sound holes. In this embodiment, the body tube 12 is only provided with nine pressing sound holes, removing the pressing sound holes pressed by the left index finger joint and the right little finger (taking a right-handed player as an example), and replacing them with a cross-finger method (releasing more than one pressing sound hole at the same time) to make up the corresponding pitch sound. The structure and working principle of the new flute body 1 are prior arts and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0052] The head plug component 2 is fixed to one end of the head tube 11 adjacent to the lip pad portion 112. In this embodiment, the head plug component 2 includes a head cap 21 and a head plug 22. The head cap 21 is fixed to one end of the head tube 11. The head plug 22 is disposed inside the head tube 11 and is fixed to the head cap 21. Preferably, the head plug 22 is a metal head plug to improve the sensitivity of sound production. The structures and working principles of the head cap 21 and the head plug 22 are prior arts and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0053] The bass augmentation component 3 is assembled and fixed to the new flute body, and includes a flute tail tube 31, two fixing seats 32 and 32a, a shaft body 33, and a plurality of tone hole buttons. The flute tail tube 31 is assembled and fixed to the flute body tube 12, with a plurality of augmentation tone holes opened on the outer peripheral wall, and a second connecting portion 311 adjacent to the flute body tube 12 extends therefrom; wherein, the outer diameter of the second connecting portion 311 is smaller than the inner diameter of the flute body tube 12 for inserting into the flute body tube 12 so as to be assembled and fixed to the flute body tube 12. In this embodiment, the flute tail tube 31 is a hollow tube structure, and four augmentation tone holes EH1 to EH4 are opened, corresponding to the #d1 tone, #c1 tone, c1 tone, and B tone respectively. In other embodiments, different pitches lower than d1 can be emitted by the new flute 100 by adjusting the length of the flute tail tube 31 and the number of augmentation tone holes.
[0054] The fixing seats 32 and 32a extend from the flute tail tube 31 respectively and are fixed to the flute tail tube 31. The shaft body 33 is fixed to the fixing seats 32 and 32a at both ends respectively. In this embodiment, a total of four tone hole buttons 34 to 34c are included. And in other embodiments, there can be different numbers of tone hole buttons according to requirements. Each tone hole button includes a key tube, a button, and a key cap. In other words, the tone hole buttons 34 to 34c respectively include key tubes 341 to 341c, buttons 342 to 342c, and key caps 343 to 343c. The key tubes 341 to 341c are respectively rotatably sleeved on the shaft body 33. Specifically, the key tube is a hollow tube structure.
[0055] The buttons 342 to 342c extend from the key tubes 341 to 341c respectively and are all adjacent to the flute body tube 12. In this embodiment, the buttons 342 and 342a are directly fixed to the key tubes 341 and 341a respectively, and the buttons 342b and 342c are respectively fixed to the key tubes 341b and 341c by linkage rods (not shown in the figure). In other words, when the performer toggles the buttons 342 to 342c respectively, the key tubes 343 to 343c can rotate in a linkage manner respectively. In this embodiment, since the flute body tube reduces the tone holes originally pressed by the right little finger, and the buttons 342 to 342c are all adjacent to the flute body tube 12, the performer can directly use the right little finger to press the buttons 342 to 342c.
[0056] The key caps 343 to 343c extend from the key tubes 341 to 341c respectively and are fixed to the key tubes 341 to 341c corresponding to the augmentation tone holes EH1 to EH4 respectively. In this embodiment, the key cap 343 is preset to cover the augmentation tone hole EH1, and the key caps 343a to 343c are preset to be away from the augmentation tone holes EH2 to EH4 respectively.
[0057] That is to say, when the performer presses the key 342, the key cover 343 moves away from the extended sound hole EH1 in a linkage manner; when the performer presses the keys 342a to 342c respectively, the key covers 343a to 343c respectively cover the extended sound holes EH2 to EH4. In addition, when the performer releases the key 342, the key cover 343 is driven by an elastic member (not shown in the figure) to re-cover the extended sound hole EH1; when the performer releases the keys 342a to 342c respectively, the key covers 343a to 343c are respectively driven by the elastic member to re-move away from the extended sound holes EH2 to EH4 respectively. In this embodiment, key pads (not shown in the figure) are provided at positions of the key covers adjacent to the extended sound holes, so as to seal the extended sound holes when the key covers are elastically deformed while covering the extended sound holes.
[0058] In summary, for the new flute 100 provided by the present utility model, first, the flute tail tube 31 provided with a plurality of extended sound holes is assembled and fixed to the new flute body 1, and then by pressing the keys, the key covers are moved to cover or move away from the extended sound holes in a linkage manner, so that the new flute 100 can emit sounds with pitches lower than d1, thereby solving the above problems.
[0059] Through the detailed description of the above preferred specific embodiments, it is hoped that the features and spirit of the present utility model can be more clearly described, rather than limiting the scope of the present utility model by the above-disclosed preferred specific embodiments. On the contrary, the purpose is to hope to cover various changes and equivalent arrangements within the scope of the claims to be applied for the present utility model.
