[0002] Plucked instruments are an important branch in the instrument family, including guitars, basses, pipas, guzhengs, yueqins, etc. Traditional plucked instruments produce sounds by the vibration of strings.

[0003] Since traditional plucked instruments are relatively finger - hurting and prone to scratching hands, with the development of society and the progress of technology, electronic plucked instruments have emerged on the market. Most of the existing electronic plucked instruments use the method of directly pressing the keyboard to replace the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments. Although it can avoid the harm of strings to fingers, the playing method of directly pressing the keyboard lacks the action of plucking the strings, which is quite different from the playing method of traditional plucked instruments. Content of the Utility Model:

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a flexible string plucking device aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology. It can not only avoid the harm of strings to fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of traditional plucked instruments, better simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments, and be better applicable to various electronic plucked instruments;

[0005] The utility model also provides an electronic plucked instrument, which can not only avoid the harm of strings to fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of traditional plucked instruments, better simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments, and be better applicable to various usage occasions.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a flexible string plucking device, including a plucking base, a flexible string arranged on the plucking base, an induced magnet sleeved on the flexible string, and a magnetic induction module for detecting the displacement magnitude and speed of the induced magnet.

[0007] The further improvement of the above - mentioned scheme is that the plucking base includes two string fixing parts respectively located at its front and rear ends, and the two ends of the flexible string are respectively fixedly arranged with the two string fixing parts.

[0008] The further improvement of the above - mentioned scheme is that the plucking base also includes two partition parts respectively arranged between the two string fixing parts. The two partition parts are respectively formed with string through - holes for the string to pass through. The part of the flexible string between the two partition parts is the plucking section, the part of the flexible string between the string fixing part and the partition part is the induction section, and the induced magnet is sleeved on the induction section.

[0009] The further improvement of the above - mentioned scheme is that the string through - hole is an oval hole.

[0010] A further improvement to the above solution is that there are two magneto - inductive magnets, and the two magneto - inductive magnets are respectively sleeved on two induction segments of the flexible string. There are two magnetic induction modules, and the two magnetic induction modules are respectively used to detect the displacement magnitude and speed of the corresponding magneto - inductive magnet. The plucking base further includes a partition bracket disposed between the two partition parts. The flexible string is fixedly arranged with the partition bracket, and the plucking segment is separated into a front plucking segment and a rear plucking segment by the partition bracket.

[0011] A further improvement to the above solution is that the partition bracket is located at the exact middle position between the two partition parts.

[0012] An electronic plucked instrument includes a plurality of flexible - string plucking devices according to any one of the above - mentioned solutions.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the present utility model lies in that: A flexible - string plucking device provided by the present utility model includes a plucking base, a flexible string disposed on the plucking base, a magneto - inductive magnet sleeved on the flexible string, and a magnetic induction module for detecting the displacement magnitude and speed of the magneto - inductive magnet;

[0014] Compared with the traditional plucked instrument that produces sound through the vibration of the string in the past, the flexible - string plucking device of the present utility model replaces the function of plucking the strings of the traditional plucked instrument by using the cooperation of the flexible string, the magneto - inductive magnet, and the magnetic induction module. By plucking the flexible string, the magneto - inductive magnet sleeved on the flexible string will correspondingly displace. The magnetic induction module detects and senses the displacement magnitude and speed of the magneto - inductive magnet, and corresponds different plucking situations to the detection results of the magnetic induction module, so as to infer the plucking strength and speed of the flexible string. Then, by combining the pre - defined note data and plucking strength data inside, different sounds are output, so that while being able to simulate the function of plucking the strings of the traditional plucked instrument, it does not hurt the fingers. The flexible - string plucking device of the present utility model can not only avoid the harm of the strings to the fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of the traditional plucked instrument, be able to better simulate the function of plucking the strings of the traditional plucked instrument, and be more suitable for various electronic plucked instruments.

Specific embodiments:

[0018] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-2 shown, a flexible string plucking device of the present utility model includes a plucking seat 1, a flexible string 2 arranged on the plucking seat 1, a magnet to be sensed 3 sleeved on the flexible string 2, and a magnetic induction module 4 for detecting the displacement magnitude and speed of the magnet to be sensed 3; compared with the traditional plucked instruments in the past that produce sounds through the vibration of the strings, a flexible string plucking device of the present utility model replaces the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments by adopting a cooperation mode of the flexible string 2, the magnet to be sensed 3, and the magnetic induction module 4. By plucking the flexible string 2, the magnet to be sensed 3 sleeved on the flexible string 2 will correspondingly displace. The magnetic induction module 4 detects and senses the displacement magnitude and speed of the magnet to be sensed 3, and corresponds different plucking situations to the detection results of the magnetic induction module 4, so as to be able to infer the plucking strength and speed of the flexible string 2. Then, by combining the pre-defined note data and plucking strength data inside, different sounds are output, so as to be able to simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments without hurting the fingers. A flexible string plucking device of the present utility model can not only avoid the harm of the strings to the fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of traditional plucked instruments, can better simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments, and can be better applied to various electronic plucked instruments.

[0019] The plucking seat 1 includes two string fixing parts 11 respectively located at its front and rear ends, and the two ends of the flexible string 2 are fixedly arranged with the two string fixing parts 11 respectively.

[0020] The plucking seat 1 further includes two separating parts 12 respectively arranged between the two string fixing parts 11. The two separating parts 12 are respectively formed with string through holes 121 for the string to pass through. The part of the flexible string 2 located between the two separating parts 12 is the plucking section 21, and the part of the flexible string 2 located between the string fixing part 11 and the separating part 12 is the induction section 22. The magnet to be sensed 3 is sleeved on the induction section 22; by dividing the flexible string 2 into the plucking section 21 and the induction section 22 and separating the plucking section 21 and the induction section 22, it can better ensure that the magnet to be sensed 3 will not be touched when the flexible string 2 is plucked, so as to better ensure the plucking performance effect.

[0021] The string through hole 121 is an oval hole, which can better meet the requirement that the flexible string 2 will not touch the separating part 12 when it deforms under plucking, so as to better ensure the accuracy of the plucking performance effect.

[0022] There are two inductive magnets 3, and the two inductive magnets 3 are respectively sleeved on the two inductive segments 22 of the flexible string 2. There are two magnetic induction modules 4, and the two magnetic induction modules 4 are respectively used to detect the displacement magnitude and speed of the corresponding inductive magnet 3. The plucking seat 1 further includes a partition bracket 13 arranged between the two partition parts 12. The flexible string 2 is fixedly arranged with the partition bracket 13, and the plucking segment 21 is separated into a front plucking segment 211 and a rear plucking segment 212 by the partition bracket 13. Compared with only one set of inductive magnet 3 and magnetic induction module 4, a flexible string plucking device of the present invention includes two sets of inductive magnets 3 and magnetic induction modules 4 respectively used to detect the front plucking segment 211 and the rear plucking segment 212, and trigger plucking for the front plucking segment 211 and the rear plucking segment 212 respectively, which can achieve different plucking performance effects, and the overall plucking performance effect is richer.

[0023] In this embodiment, the partition bracket 13 is located at the exact middle position between the two partition parts 12, and the plucking segment 21 is separated into a front plucking segment 211 and a rear plucking segment 212 with the same length. Of course, in other embodiments, the plucking segment 21 can also be separated into a front plucking segment 211 and a rear plucking segment 212 with different lengths according to specific usage situations.

[0024] Embodiment 2, an electronic plucked instrument, includes a plurality of flexible string plucking devices as described in Embodiment 1. It can not only avoid the harm of the strings to the fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of traditional plucked instruments, can better simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments, and can be better applied to various usage occasions.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] When the flexible string 2 is plucked, the inductive magnet 3 sleeved on the flexible string 2 will correspondingly displace. The magnetic induction module 4 detects and senses the displacement magnitude and speed of the inductive magnet 3, and corresponds different plucking situations to the detection results of the magnetic induction module 4, so as to be able to infer the plucking strength and speed of the flexible string 2. Then, by combining the pre-defined note data and plucking strength data inside, different sounds are output, so as to be able to simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments without hurting the fingers. A flexible string plucking device of the present invention can not only avoid the harm of the strings to the fingers, but also be more in line with the playing method of traditional plucked instruments, can better simulate the function of plucking the strings of traditional plucked instruments, and can be better applied to various electronic plucked instruments.
