Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of guqin manufacturing, and relates to a guqin body structure made of composite materials, in particular to a guqin body resonance cavity structure. Background Art
[0002] The guqin, also known as the yaoqin, yuqin, sitong, and seven-stringed qin, is a traditional plucked string instrument of the Han ethnic group in China. It originated during the Neolithic Age (1000-6000 BC), boasting a history of at least 8,000 years. The guqin's creator is generally considered to be Taihao Fuxi, the first of the Three Sovereigns and a Neolithic tribal leader, who revered him as the ancestor of the guqin. The guqin belongs to the eight musical instruments (metal, stone, silk, bamboo, gourd, earth, leather, and wood) and boasts a wide range of tones, a deep timbre, and a long-lasting sound.
[0003] The internal structure of the traditional guqin is prone to frequency mixing, resulting in a floating sound, an uncomfortable feel at the second and third frets, uneven keypressing, and insufficient reverberation. This is also due to production errors caused by variations in wood, long production cycles, cracking and deformation caused by wet and dry environments, and the scarcity of wood, as well as the environmentally unfriendly processing involved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The following is a detailed and complete description of the embodiments of the present invention so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more precise definition of the protection scope of the present invention.
[0039] It should be noted that the positions of Yueshan, Qinhui, Longchi, Fengzhao, Huzhen, Zhenchi, Xianyan and Yanzu in the body of the guqin are the specified positions of the traditional guqin.
[0040] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention provides a guqin body resonance cavity structure, wherein the guqin body C is formed by a panel A and a bottom plate B having the same outer edges to enclose the resonance cavity.
[0041] The panel A is arc-shaped and is composed of an inner panel A1 and an outer panel A2 having the same outer edges bonded together; the bottom plate B is flat and is composed of an inner bottom plate B1 and an outer bottom plate B2 having the same outer edges bonded together.
[0042] The outer surface of the outer panel A2 is provided with a yueshan 1 near the head of the guqin, and the inner panel A1 is provided with a yueshan root 2 protruding toward the resonance cavity at a position corresponding to the yueshan 1 of the outer panel A2; a through string eye 11 is provided from the yueshan to the yueshan root.
[0043] Since the yueshan root is a solid structure, it is equivalent to partially increasing the strength of the guqin's panel. At the same time, it disperses the force of the pegs tightening the strings from around the string holes of the guqin's panel to the entire yueshan root, reducing the local resistance of the guqin's panel and helping to protect the guqin's panel from the inside.
[0044] The middle part of the inner panel A1 is provided with a long strip of dragon-shaped sound 3 protruding toward the resonance cavity along the long axis of the guqin. The inner panel A1 is provided with a long strip of phoenix-shaped sound 4 protruding toward the resonance cavity near the tail of the guqin along the long axis of the guqin.
[0045] The settings of Long Na Yin and Feng Na Yin mainly serve to radiate sound waves outward. During the radiation process, certain frequency components will be enhanced or attenuated, making the guqin's tone more three-dimensional.
[0046] The inner bottom plate B1 has an inner long hole 51 formed in the middle thereof along the long axis of the guqin; the inner bottom plate B1 has an inner short hole 61 formed in the tail thereof along the long axis of the guqin.
[0047] The outer bottom plate B2 has an elongated outer hole 52 in the middle along the long axis of the guqin; the outer bottom plate has an elongated outer short hole 62 at the tail of the guqin along the long axis; the inner long hole 51 and the outer long hole 52 are the same in size and position, and together constitute the dragon pool 5; the inner short hole 61 and the outer short hole 62 are the same in size and position, and together constitute the phoenix marsh 6.
[0048] The size and position of the dragon pool 5 correspond to the dragon na yin 3 of the inner panel; the size and position of the phoenix marsh 6 correspond to the phoenix na yin 4 of the inner panel; Figure 8 As shown, the corresponding Dragon Na Yin and Phoenix Na Yin can be seen from the outer bottom plate.
[0049] The inner bottom plate B1 is provided with a rectangular inner zhen pool hole 71 at a position corresponding to the yueshan root, and the outer bottom plate B2 is provided with a rectangular outer zhen pool hole 72 at a position corresponding to the inner bottom plate B1; the inner zhen pool hole and the outer zhen pool hole form the zhen pool 7; Figure 8 As shown, the corresponding base of the shank and the eye of the chord can be seen from the outer bottom plate.
[0050] The inner bottom plate B1 is provided with six sound guide grooves parallel to the long axis of the guqin facing the direction of the guqin cavity, among which the four middle ones are long sound guide grooves 8a, 8b, 8c, and 8d, which are extended from the corresponding position on one side of the inner peg hole 71 to the tail of the guqin, and the two middle long sound guide grooves 8b and 8c pass through the inner long hole 51 and the inner short hole 61; a goose foot root 9 is provided at the outermost side of the four long sound guide grooves near the tail of the guqin, and the two sound guide grooves on both sides are short sound guide grooves 8e and 8f; the two short sound guide grooves 8e and 8f are extended along the edge of the inner long hole near the head of the guqin to the goose foot root 9; the setting of the sound guide grooves can effectively solve the problems of the seven-string sound being floating, one string not entering the chamber, insufficient sound uniformity, insufficient sound reverberation, and sound mixing.
[0051] A hole-shaped foot pool 10 is opened at a position corresponding to the goose foot root 9 of the outer bottom plate B2 and the inner bottom plate B1; the foot pool is used to accommodate the goose foot.
[0052] Traditionally, the goose-foot base of a guqin is fixed to the top of the instrument. This new design fixes the goose-foot base to the baseboard, ensuring more even notes. Because the goose-foot base is located on the baseboard, the instrument's vibrations enhance certain frequencies, further improving the directivity of the tone. This also reduces manufacturing complexity and increases guqin production efficiency.
[0053] The outer bottom plate B2 is located at one end of the guqin head and is provided with an arc-shaped peg guard 12 for supporting the guqin body.
[0054] An upper snap 13 is provided at the edge of the inner panel A1, and a lower snap 14 is provided at the corresponding position of the edge of the inner bottom plate B1, so that the panel and the bottom plate can be connected by plug-in snap bonding.
[0055] The upper and lower clips make the top and bottom of the guitar body correspond to each other, mainly for positioning, and the edges are sealed by gluing. Since the outer top and bottom are relatively thin, the upper and lower clips are respectively set on the inner top and bottom. Figure 2 The edge of the middle panel is relatively thin, so the outer panel edge line is not clearly shown in the figure.
[0056] The inner panel is made of a high-pressure injection-molded polymer material, such as polypropylene or acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer; the inner bottom plate is made of a high-pressure injection-molded polymer material, such as polypropylene or acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer.
[0057] The outer panel is made of a carbon fiber composite material formed by thermoplastic injection molding, and the outer bottom plate is made of a carbon fiber composite material formed by thermoplastic injection molding.
[0058] The outer surface of the outer panel and the outer surface of the outer bottom plate are covered with a lacquer layer using a lacquer coloring process, giving the guqin a more ancient texture.
[0059] The inner panel is prepared by a high-pressure injection molding method; the inner bottom plate is prepared by a high-pressure injection molding method.
[0060] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
