Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cellos, in particular to a cello tailpiece with multi-support point decompression. Background Art
[0002] The tailpiece is an essential component of the cello, used to pull the tailstring. A foot brace is inserted through the middle of the tailpiece to support the cello. The cello is made of wood, with the tailpiece and foot brace mounted on the lower block and the tapered hole in the tailpiece. In operation, the four cello strings pull the tailpiece with a tension of approximately 40kg. The tailpiece, pulled by the tailstring, presses against the tailpiece at a nearly 90-degree angle. The bent tailstring is wrapped around the curved groove of the tailpiece, pulling the tailpiece diagonally with a unilateral force from the side. However, traditional tailpieces have the following disadvantages:
[0003] 1. The unilateral force on the side pulls the tailpiece obliquely, causing the tailpiece to be pulled obliquely and the tailpiece cone hole to be deformed by tension and compression. The inclination of the tailpiece will affect the tension of the strings and thus affect the tone.
[0004] 2. Because the tailpiece is under pressure of nearly 90 degrees from the tail rope, the lower end of the cello panel is under great pressure. The tapered holes of the tailpiece on the bottom side panels and the lower pier are subjected to the lateral torsion of the tail rope at the end of the tailpiece, which seriously interferes with and limits the vibration of the cello when it is played, affecting the pure and good tone of the cello.
[0005] 3. The tapered holes of the cello's bottom side panels and the lower pier are subject to the long-term lateral torsional force of the tail rope extending from the end of the tailpiece, which can easily cause irreversible damage. During maintenance, the tailpiece tapered holes can only be enlarged and corrected with a special taper hand reamer, and then a larger tailpiece can be replaced.
[0006] 4. The footrest extends outward diagonally along the pulled tailpiece to support the ground. The player holds the guitar with his chest, clamps the guitar with his legs from time to time, presses the soft strings with his fingers in various ways, and moves the bow in various ways. The body sways with his emotions. All these forces are absorbed by the tailpiece, which must withstand a large lateral force. If it is not strong enough, it will not only affect the performance, but its shaking will also cause changes in the tension of the tail rope, resulting in changes in the tension of the four strings, affecting the pitch.
[0007] Therefore, how to provide a cello tailpiece with multi-point decompression to reduce the pressure of the tailpiece on the cello and improve the stability of the tailpiece installation has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cello tailpiece with multi-point decompression, thereby reducing the pressure of the tailpiece on the cello and improving the stability of the tailpiece installation.
[0009] The utility model is realized as follows: a cello tailpiece with multiple supporting points and reduced pressure, comprising:
[0010] a cone sleeve;
[0011] A shaft sleeve passes through the tapered sleeve and has a size matching that of the tapered sleeve. A foot support mounting hole is provided through the middle portion thereof. A circular groove is provided at each end thereof surrounding the foot support mounting hole. A limiting portion is provided outwardly on the outer wall. An annular protrusion is provided outwardly on the middle portion of the shaft sleeve located on the left side of the limiting portion. The annular protrusion is located inside the tapered sleeve. The shaft sleeve is located on the right side of the limiting portion and has a first threaded hole vertically provided from the outside to the inside thereof that is in communication with the foot support mounting hole.
[0012] Two silicone rings are respectively arranged in one of the ring grooves;
[0013] A foot support, the middle portion of which passes through the foot support mounting hole and the silicone ring;
[0014] A tail rope frame is sleeved on the shaft sleeve, with an arc-shaped channel arranged around the side, an arc-shaped tail rope support portion is provided on the inner side of the top end, and a second threaded hole is provided vertically from the outside to the inside at the bottom end, facing the first threaded hole;
[0015] A butterfly-shaped hand screw is threadedly connected to the second threaded hole and the first threaded hole in sequence, and the end portion is press-fitted with the side wall of the foot support.
[0016] Furthermore, it also includes:
[0017] A rubber head is sleeved on the end of the foot support.
[0018] Furthermore, the cone sleeve is a metal cone sleeve.
[0019] The advantages of the present invention are:
[0020] 1. A tapered sleeve, a shaft sleeve and a tail rope frame are provided. The tapered sleeve is a metal tapered sleeve and is installed in the tapered hole of the tail post of the cello. The shaft sleeve is installed in the tapered sleeve. The tail rope frame is sleeved on the shaft sleeve, and the shaft sleeve is provided with a limiting portion and an annular protrusion. The tail rope frame is provided with an arc-shaped groove. When the tail rope frame pulls the tail rope through the arc-shaped groove and is subjected to a force tilting inward, the force is transmitted to the entire tapered sleeve through the annular protrusion of the shaft sleeve for decomposition, that is, the lateral tension of the tail rope is converted into a force for the inward displacement of the shaft sleeve, and the shaft sleeve is blocked by the limiting portion and cannot be displaced, thereby maintaining the stability of the tail rope frame, and ultimately greatly reducing the pressure of the tail post on the cello, and greatly improving the stability of the tail post installation.
[0021] 2. By setting an arc-shaped tail rope support part on the inner side of the top of the tail rope frame, the tail rope is lifted up by the tail rope support part when the tail rope is pulled, so that the tail rope does not exert pressure on the tailpiece, avoiding restricting the vibration of the cello when playing, thereby ensuring the timbre of the cello. That is, the tail rope is only lightly placed on the tailpiece, which is compatible with the traditional cello structure.
[0022] 3. By setting two ring grooves for installing silicone rings in the sleeve, the footrest is sealed and shock-proofed by two O-shaped silicone rings after passing through the sleeve, effectively preventing the vibration when the footrest touches the ground from being introduced into the cello and generating noise, which greatly improves the durability of use compared to cork.
