Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reed processing technology, and in particular to a manual forming device for single-spring reeds. Background Technology
[0002] Single-reed instruments are an important branch of the woodwind family. Their sound production principle is based on the vibration of a single reed. When the player blows air into the mouthpiece, the airflow causes the reed to vibrate, which in turn induces resonance in the air column within the instrument's cavity, ultimately producing sound. Common single-reed instruments include the clarinet and saxophone. The reed is a crucial sound-producing component in single-reed instruments. Through its interaction with the mouthpiece, it vibrates under the influence of the airflow generated by the player's breath, producing sound. It has a decisive influence on the instrument's timbre, intonation, playing comfort, and expressiveness.
[0003] Currently, most reeds, once processed, do not meet the needs of performers. In such cases, reeds need to be further refined using molding equipment. However, existing reed molding equipment is prone to damaging reeds during the refining process, resulting in a low reed yield. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0027] Reference Figure 1-5 A manual forming device for a single-spring reed includes a base 1 and a reed body 7. Two columns 2 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1, and an optical axis 3 is fixedly connected between the two columns 2. A rotating bracket 4 is sleeved on the outer surface of the optical axis 3. A blocking mechanism is provided on the optical axis 3 to block the rotating bracket 4. Two mounting seats 5 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating bracket 4, and a tool holder 6 is installed between the two mounting seats 5. The blocking mechanism includes two blocking rings 20 that are slidably connected to the outer surface of the optical axis 3, and the two blocking rings 20 are located on both sides of the rotating bracket 4. Each of the two blocking rings 20 is threaded with a fastening screw. The side of the two blocking rings 20 that is close to each other is fitted with a flexible shock-absorbing ring. The blocking mechanism is used to limit the range of horizontal movement of the rotating bracket 4. After loosening the fastening screw, the fixing of the blocking ring 20 can be released. At this time, the blocking ring 20 can slide and rotate along the optical axis 3. After loosening the fastening screw, the blocking ring 20 can be fixed.
[0028] A handle 21 is installed on the outer surface of the tool holder 6. By setting the handle 21, it is easy to pull the tool holder 6 to move and rotate.
[0029] A reed base 8 is mounted on the upper surface of the base 1. The reed base 8 is provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the reed body 7. The fixing mechanism includes a pressure plate 10. One end of the pressure plate 10 is mounted on the reed base 8 by a screw. The reed base 8 is internally threaded with a first threaded adjusting rod 9. One end of the first threaded adjusting rod 9 abuts against the inner wall of the pressure plate 10. A first knob is installed at the bottom of the first threaded adjusting rod 9. After the reed body 7 is placed on the reed scale seat 19, the first threaded adjusting rod 9 is turned. The first threaded adjusting rod 9 can drive the pressure plate 10 to deform, thereby pressing the reed body 7 and fixing the reed body 7. When the reed body 7 is released, the first threaded adjusting rod 9 is turned in the opposite direction.
[0030] The tool holder 6 is equipped with a machining mechanism, which includes a cavity inside the tool holder 6. A blade 16 is slidably mounted inside the cavity. Two hexagon socket head cap screws 18 are threadedly connected inside the tool holder 6. The blade 16 has an elongated hole through which one end of the hexagon socket head cap screw 18 passes. The machining mechanism also includes a third threaded adjusting rod 17. One end of the third threaded adjusting rod 17 is rotatably mounted inside the tool holder 6 and is threadedly connected to the blade 16. A third knob is installed at one end of the third threaded adjusting rod 17. By controlling the blade 16 to slide back and forth along the reed body 7, fine finishing processing of the reed body 7 can be achieved. After loosening the two hexagon socket head cap screws 18, the blade 16 can slide along the cavity. Then, when the third threaded adjusting rod 17 is turned, the blade 16 can slide along the third threaded adjusting rod 17, thereby achieving the adjustment of the angle of the blade 16. This allows it to adapt to different machining requirements of the reed body 7. After adjusting the angle of the blade 16, tightening the two hexagon socket head cap screws 18 can fix the blade 16.
[0031] The top of the reed base 8 is equipped with a reed scale seat 19. By setting the reed scale seat 19, the reed body 7 can be fixed more precisely.
[0032] A grinding mold base 11 is mounted on the upper surface of the base 1, and the grinding mold base 11 is located to the right of the reed base 8. A grinding mold body 12 adapted to the reed body 7 is mounted on the upper surface of the grinding mold base 11. A reference plate 13 is slidably mounted on the bottom of the tool holder 6. An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the reference plate 13 is provided on the tool holder 6. The adjustment mechanism includes a circular groove opened inside the tool holder 6. A spring 22 is fixedly connected inside the circular groove. A flat-head bolt 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring 22. One end of the flat-head bolt 15 slides through the tool holder 6 and is threaded to the reference plate. Inside the tool holder 6, a second threaded adjusting rod 14 is connected by internal threads. One end of the second threaded adjusting rod 14 abuts against the reference plate 13. A second knob is installed on one end of the second threaded adjusting rod 14. When the second threaded adjusting rod 14 is turned downward, it will move downward against the reference plate 13. When the second threaded adjusting rod 14 is turned upward, the spring 22 will pull the reference plate 13 upward, thereby enabling the adjustment of the distance between the tool holder 6 and the mold body 12, and further enabling the adjustment of the distance between the blade 16 and the whistle body 7.
[0033] When refining the reed body 7, the position of the reference plate 13 on the mold body 12 can be adjusted according to the position where the reed body 7 needs to be refined. Then, the two blocking rings 20 are fixed at the positions where the reed body 7 starts and ends the refinement, respectively. At this time, the tool holder 6 can only move back and forth between the two blocking rings 20. After that, the angle of the blade 16 is adjusted and the reed body 7 is fixed on the reed scale seat 19. Then, the blade 16 is adjusted to contact the reed body 7 through the adjustment mechanism. At this time, when the tool holder 6 moves back and forth between the two blocking rings 20, the blade 16 will move back and forth at the position where the reed body 7 needs to be refined. This can greatly reduce the probability of operator error, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the reed body 7 during refinement and improving the yield.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
