Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to percussion instruments, and more particularly to a small glockenspiel. Background Technology

[0002] The glockenspiel is a percussion instrument that is easy to use. With just a few skill points, one can produce clear, melodious sounds by striking small hammers. It is a very easy instrument to learn and is therefore often used in early childhood education. The glockenspiel is exquisitely designed, portable, and its bright, clear sound creates a pleasant atmosphere.

[0003] In existing glockenspiels, the key pieces are installed from the front of the shell, which exposes the parts used to position the key pieces (such as screws / nylon threads / soft rubber locating pins), affecting the aesthetics. Each key piece needs to be fixed one by one with screws / nylon threads / soft rubber locating pins, resulting in low assembly and production efficiency. In addition, the sound chambers of existing glockenspiels are connected, which leads to shorter sound production and cross-tones when the key pieces are struck, affecting the sound quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a small glockenspiel.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a small glockenspiel, including a front shell, a plate, a plate support cover and an outer shell. The back of the front shell is evenly spaced with grooves for placing the plates. Each groove on the back of the front shell is provided with a positioning pin at both ends. Each positioning pin is fitted with a soft rubber nail. Each plate is provided with a fixing hole at both ends. The fixing holes at both ends of the plate are fixed to the back of the front shell by the soft rubber nail.

[0006] The underside of the plectrum support cover has a first sound cavity groove corresponding to the position of each plectrum. A soft rubber pad for supporting the plectrum is fixedly installed on top of the plectrum support cover. The plectrum support cover is installed on the back of the faceplate and covers each plectrum. This utility model changes the traditional assembly method of installing plectrums from the front of the faceplate, installing them from the back. This way, the plectrum can conceal the positioning cylinders and the soft rubber pad for the plectrum support cover, etc., from below. From the front, only the plectrum is visible, and other positioning plectrum parts are not visible. Furthermore, there are no screw holes or other structures on the front of the plectrum, increasing the playing area.

[0007] As an improvement to this glockenspiel, the bottom of the cavity of the outer shell is provided with a second sound cavity groove corresponding to the position of each reed. The first sound cavity groove under the reed support and each of the second sound cavity grooves in the outer shell form an independent single reed's internal sound cavity, and the length of each reed's internal sound cavity is different. Each reed's sound cavity is independent, improving the reed's sound quality by producing a longer note and eliminating crosstalk. The different lengths of the reed's internal sound cavities produce different sounds.

[0008] As an improvement to this utility model of a glockenspiel, it also includes a left and a right shell. One side of the right shell is flexibly connected to one side of the left shell via a cloth strip or tape. Each end of the cloth strip or tape has a pressure piece. The cloth strip or tape is fixed to the left and right shells by the pressure pieces and screws. The right and left shells can be opened or closed relative to each other. The structure of the left shell is the same as that of the right shell. In the market, the left and right shells are connected by sewn cloth strips or tapes. This improvement uses cloth strips or tapes, pressure pieces, and screws to fix the left and right shells together, making it more stable and able to withstand force. The left and right shells can be closed for easy carrying. When the left and right shells are open, both hands can be used simultaneously, or two people can play together.

[0009] As an improvement of the glockenspiel of this utility model, the top shell is provided with screw holes on both sides, and the top shell is screwed to the outer shell through the screw holes on both sides. The back of the top shell is provided with grooves around the perimeter, which are pressed together with the protrusions around the perimeter of the outer shell to form an outer sound cavity.

[0010] As an improvement to the glockenspiel of this utility model, the front of the face shell is provided with a hammer mounting groove, and two brackets are provided in the hammer mounting groove. The two brackets jointly install a hammer. At the same time, the mold of the face shell is improved for more efficient production.

[0011] As an improvement to this glockenspiel, the hardness of the first striking head of the double-tone hammer is greater than or less than the hardness of the second striking head. The double-tone hammer (a hammer used to strike the glockenspiel, which can be struck from both ends but is made of different materials—one end is hard rubber, and the other is soft rubber) produces different striking effects from each end, allowing the user to select two different tones when striking a single glockenspiel with the same force. The different hardness of the second striking head compared to the first allows a single instrument to play two high notes, two low notes, and two mid notes.

[0012] As an improvement to the glockenspiel of this utility model, the middle part of the face shell is provided with a reed window, and the groove is set on the back of the reed window, so that the reed fixing parts are not visible after the improvement.

[0013] As an improvement to the small glockenspiel of this utility model, an adsorption mounting groove is provided on one side edge of the back of the face shell, and a magnetic adsorption component is provided in the adsorption mounting groove. After the improvement, it is more convenient to open or close the left and right face shells in practical use.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The bell glockenspiel of this utility model has a simple and beautiful appearance, resulting in a better visual effect. It changes the traditional assembly method of mounting the glockens from the front of the shell; instead, it mounts the glockens from the back of the shell. This way, the positioning cylinders and the soft rubber cover for the glockens are hidden underneath, so only the glockens are visible from the front, not the other positioning parts. After placing the glockens in their corresponding positions on the back of the shell, the glockenspiel cover is used to cover all the glockens, and four screws are used to secure the cover, reducing the hassle of screwing, threading nylon threads, and inserting soft rubber positioning pins for each glockens. The glockenspiel of this utility model have independent sound chambers, making the bell glockenspiel produce longer notes without cross-tones. This provides users with more sound quality options and improves the user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0025] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a glockenspiel includes a front shell 1, pegs 2, and a peg support cover 3. The back of the front shell 1 is evenly spaced with grooves 15 for placing pegs. Each groove 15 on the back of the front shell 1 has a positioning pin 4 at both ends, and a soft rubber nail 5 is fitted onto each positioning pin 4. Each peg 2 has a fixing hole 19 at both ends, and the fixing holes 19 at both ends of the peg 2 are fixed to the back of the front shell 1 by the soft rubber nail 5. The bottom of the peg support cover 32 has a first sound cavity groove 21 corresponding to the position of each peg 2. A soft rubber pad 6 for supporting the peg 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the peg support cover 3. The peg support cover 3 is installed on the back of the front shell 1 and covers each peg 2. This invention changes the traditional assembly method of mounting the piano piece 2 from the front of the faceplate 1. Instead, the piano piece 2 is mounted from the back of the faceplate 1. This way, the piano piece 2 can cover the positioning cylinder and the soft rubber cover of the piano piece, so that only the piano piece 2 can be seen from the front, and other positioning piano pieces will not be visible. Moreover, there are no screw holes or other structures on the front of the piano piece 2, and the playing area of ​​the piano piece 2 is increased.

[0026] Preferably, the device also includes a housing 7. The bottom of the cavity of the housing 7 has a second sound cavity groove 71 corresponding to the position of each reed. The first sound cavity groove 21 under the reed cover 3 and each second sound cavity groove 71 of the housing 7 form an independent single reed internal sound cavity. The length of the sound cavity in each reed is different. Since the sound cavity of each reed 2 is independent, the sounding time of the reed is increased, eliminating the influence of crosstalk on the sound quality. The different lengths of the internal sound cavities of the reeds can produce different sounds.

[0027] Preferably, the device also includes a left shell 11 and a right shell 12. One side of the right shell 12 is flexibly connected to one side of the left shell 11 via a cloth strip 13 or a cloth tape.

When the left and right shells are open, both hands can be used simultaneously, or two people can play together.

[0028] Preferably, the faceplate 1 has screw holes 8 on both sides, and the faceplate 1 is screwed to the outer shell 7 through the screw holes 8 on both sides. The back of the faceplate 1 has grooves around its perimeter that press against the protrusions around the outer shell 7 to form an outer sound cavity.

[0029] Preferably, the front of the faceplate 1 is provided with a hammer mounting groove 9, and two retainers 91 are provided in the hammer mounting groove 9. The two retainers 91 jointly install a striking member 10. One end of the striking member 10 is provided with a first striking head 101 and the other end is provided with a second striking head 102. The hardness of the first striking head 101 and the hardness of the second striking head 102 are different.

[0030] Preferably, the hardness of the first striking head 101 is greater than or less than the hardness of the second striking head 102. The dual-hardness hammer (a hammer used to strike the piano clapper, which can be struck from both ends but with different materials—one end is hard rubber and the other is soft rubber) produces different striking effects from each end, allowing the user to select two different sound qualities when striking a single piano clapper with the same force.

[0031] Preferably, the faceplate 1 has a piano-shaped window 16 in the middle, and the groove 15 is provided on the back of the piano-shaped window 16.

[0032] Preferably, the back side edge of the faceplate 1 is provided with an adsorption mounting groove 17, and the adsorption mounting groove 18 is provided with a magnetic adsorption element 18.

[0033] Preferably, both ends of the plectrum support cover 3 are provided with screw lugs 31, and the back of the top shell 1 is provided with screw seats 20 corresponding to the position of each screw lug 31.
