Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of guitar bridge technology, specifically a lockable string electric guitar bridge. Background Technology
[0002] The bridge is the component in a stringed instrument that supports the strings. Based on its position, it is divided into the upper bridge at the headstock and the lower bridge at the bridge.
[0003] Traditional electric guitar bridges do not have a string-locking function. They rely on the grooves in the bridge and the pressure of the string being pulled down to press it down naturally. Due to the size and tension of the strings, the strings will wobble in the grooves, resulting in extremely poor stability, especially noticeable in vibrato scenarios.
[0004] Therefore, a lockable bridge for electric guitars is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a lockable electric guitar bridge that can solve the problem of strings not being able to be forcibly locked.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: it includes a positioning base block and a connecting groove formed in the middle of the positioning base block. The upper end of the positioning base block is threaded with a positioning bolt one and a positioning bolt two, and the positioning bolt one and the positioning bolt two are connected to the guitar body.
[0007] A locking bolt is threaded to one side of the upper end of the positioning base block, and one side of the locking bolt is located on the horizontal trajectory of the connecting groove.
[0008] Preferably, the first positioning bolt and the second positioning bolt are located at different positions, and the center of the second positioning bolt and the center of the locking bolt are located at the same horizontal position.
[0009] Preferably, the first positioning bolt and the second positioning bolt are distributed at an angle greater than 90° with the locking bolt as the center, and both the first positioning bolt and the second positioning bolt are embedded in the upper end of the positioning base block.
[0010] Preferably, the first positioning bolt and the second positioning bolt extend beyond the lower end of the positioning base block, and the first positioning bolt and the second positioning bolt are threadedly connected to the guitar body.
[0011] Preferably, the locking bolt has a rectangular groove at the location of the positioning base block, and the rectangular groove communicates with the connecting groove.
[0012] Preferably, the length of the rectangular groove is the same as the diameter of the locking bolt, and a side limiting block is installed on the inner wall of the rectangular groove near the second positioning bolt. The side limiting block is arc-shaped.
[0013] Preferably, the arc-shaped outer surface of the side limiting block is in close contact with the arc-shaped outer surface of the locking bolt.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a lockable electric guitar bridge, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. Lock-string electric guitar bridges use custom screws installed at the bridge position to lock the strings, effectively solving the problem of inconsistent string sizes. The strings are securely locked by the locking screws at the string guide, ensuring stability for both passionate singing and vibrato performances.
[0016] 2. By rotating the locking bolt, the limiting space formed between the locking bolt and the positioning base block is adjusted. By adjusting the size of the limiting space, it can be adjusted accordingly according to the different diameters of the strings, thus achieving the effect of locking and fastening strings of various specifications.
[0017] 3. When the string is below the locking bolt, rotate the locking bolt to make it firmly contact the lower surface of the rectangular groove, thus creating a locking effect for the string at that position.
[0018] 4. When the string is located on the side of the locking bolt, the string between the locking bolt and the side limiting block is clamped and positioned by the compression between the locking bolt and the side limiting block, thus achieving the effect of positioning and locking the string at that position.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Example:
[0027] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 In this embodiment, a lockable electric guitar bridge includes a positioning base 1 and a connecting groove 2 opened in the middle of the positioning base 1. The upper end of the positioning base 1 is threaded with a positioning bolt 3 and a positioning bolt 4, which are connected to the guitar body.
[0028] A locking bolt 6 is threadedly connected to one side of the upper end of the positioning base block 1, and one side of the locking bolt 6 is located on the horizontal trajectory of the connecting groove 2.
[0029] In this process, positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 are connected and fixed to the guitar, positioning base block 1 is fixed on the guitar, and then the strings are fixed inside the connecting groove 2. By rotating the locking bolt 6, the strings are positioned on the positioning base block 1. This tightens the locking bolt 6 while reducing the contact space between the locking bolt 6 and the positioning base block 1, thereby achieving the effect of positioning and clamping the strings and providing the effect of locking the strings for the device.
[0030] By rotating the locking bolt 6, the limiting space formed between the locking bolt 6 and the positioning base block 1 is adjusted. By adjusting the size of the limiting space, it can be adjusted accordingly according to the different diameters of the strings, so as to achieve the effect of locking and fastening the strings of various specifications.
[0031] Positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 are located in different positions, and the center of positioning bolt 4 and locking bolt 6 are located in the same horizontal position.
[0032] Positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 are distributed at an angle greater than 90° with locking bolt 6 as the center, and both positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 are embedded in the upper end of positioning block 1.
[0033] Positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 extend from the lower end of positioning block 1, and positioning bolt 3 and positioning bolt 4 are threadedly connected to the guitar body.
[0034] By installing positioning bolt 1 (3) and positioning bolt 2 (4) at an angle, support can be provided for positioning the positioning base block 1 at two dispersed points, thereby providing multiple contact points for the connection between the positioning base block 1 and the guitar, improving the strength of the connection of the positioning base block 1, and preventing unstable installation.
[0035] The locking bolt 6 has a rectangular groove at the position of the positioning bottom block 1, and the rectangular groove is connected to the connecting groove 2;
[0036] The length of the rectangular groove is the same as the diameter of the locking bolt 6. A side limiting block 7 is installed on the inner wall of the rectangular groove near the second positioning bolt 4. The side limiting block 7 is arc-shaped.
[0037] The arc-shaped outer surface of the side limiting block 7 is in close contact with the arc-shaped outer surface of the locking bolt 6;
[0038] When the string is below the locking bolt 6, by rotating the locking bolt 6, it is made to make it firmly contact the lower surface of the rectangular groove, thus creating a locking effect for the string at that position.
[0039] When the string is located on the side of the locking bolt 6, the string between the locking bolt 6 and the side limiting block 7 is clamped and positioned by the compression between the locking bolt 6 and the side limiting block 7, thereby achieving the effect of positioning and locking the string at that position.
[0040] Thus, with the installation and use of the locking bolt 6, the device can lock the strings of different specifications and with different fastening methods.
[0041] The installation, connection, or setting methods disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connection methods. As long as they can achieve their beneficial effects, they can be implemented. Therefore, this embodiment will not elaborate on their specific structural composition and working principle.
