Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thumb piano technology, specifically a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet. Background Technology

[0002] The thumb piano (or "mbira") is a traditional African musical instrument.

[0003] The thumb piano gets its name from the thin discs (mainly made of wood or bamboo, and in modern developments, metal discs) that are played by plucking them with the thumb.

[0004] Current thumb pianos consist of a sound-producing component and a body, and their functions are relatively simple. Therefore, we have proposed a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet, comprising a thumb piano body, a sound-producing component installed on the thumb piano body, a refrigerator magnet on the back of the thumb piano body, an adhesive layer connected to the side of the refrigerator magnet that contacts the thumb piano body, and a magnetic sheet inside the refrigerator magnet.

[0007] Preferably, the sound-producing component consists of a metal spring, a nut one, and a nut two. The nut one is installed on the front of the thumb piano body, the nut two is connected to the metal spring, and the metal spring is connected to the nut one.

[0008] Preferably, the body of the thumb piano is made of either acrylic or wood.

[0009] Preferably, the metal spring is made of a high-elasticity steel sheet.

[0010] Preferably, the refrigerator magnet has the same shape as the cross-sectional shape of the thumb piano body, and the refrigerator magnet is connected to the thumb piano body by an adhesive layer.

[0011] This utility model provides a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This thumb piano with built-in refrigerator magnets can be decorated by adding a refrigerator magnet to the back of the thumb piano. Different refrigerator magnets have different patterns and contents, and can also display some playing instructions, sheet music, etc. The magnets can be changed. The magnets can be attached to metal materials, so the thumb piano can be directly attached to metal devices or structures when placed. When carried, it can also be directly attached to mobile phones and tablets. The thumb piano can be used as a musical instrument and as a decoration, which improves its functionality and practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0018] In the picture: 1. Body of the thumb piano; 2. Fridge magnet; 3. Metal spring; 4. Nut one; 5. Nut two. Detailed Implementation

[0019] 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.

[0020] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a thumb piano with a refrigerator magnet, including a thumb piano body 1, on which a sound-producing component is installed.

[0021] The sound-producing assembly consists of a metal spring 3, a nut 1 4, and a nut 2 5. Nut 1 4 is installed on the front of the thumb piano body 1. Nut 2 5 is connected to the metal spring 3, and the metal spring 3 is connected to the nut 1 4. The metal spring 3 is made of high-elasticity thin steel plate, and its steel material combines a wide range, high durability, and excellent sound quality. The thumb piano body 1 can be made of acrylic or wood.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-5The back of the thumb piano body 1 is provided with a refrigerator magnet 2. The side of the refrigerator magnet 2 that contacts the thumb piano body 1 is connected with an adhesive layer. The side of the refrigerator magnet 2 that is away from the thumb piano body 1 is provided with different patterns and other content. Different patterns or content of the refrigerator magnet 2 can be replaced as needed. The shape of the refrigerator magnet 2 is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the thumb piano body 1.

[0023] The refrigerator magnet 2 is connected to the thumb piano body 1 through an adhesive layer. The refrigerator magnet 2 has a magnetic sheet inside, which can be attracted to metal materials. Therefore, when placing the thumb piano, it can be directly attached to some metal devices or structures, such as refrigerators, some metal brackets, etc. During the carrying process, it can also be directly attached to mobile phones and tablets. The thumb piano can be used as a musical instrument and as a decoration, which improves its functionality and practicality.

[0024] In summary, referring to Figures 1-5 To use the thumb piano with the refrigerator magnet, peel off the protective film on the back of the refrigerator magnet 2, align the refrigerator magnet 2 with the back of the thumb piano body 1, and press it onto the back of the thumb piano body 1 after aligning the edges. This completes the connection between the refrigerator magnet 2 and the thumb piano body 1.

[0025] When playing, hold the thumb piano body 1 with both hands from the side, and press different metal pins 3 with the left and right thumbs to play adjacent or non-adjacent notes. Adjust the volume by pressing the keys lightly to produce a soft sound and pressing harder to produce a loud sound.

[0026] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may change.

[0027] Secondly: The accompanying drawings of the embodiments disclosed in this utility model only involve the structures involved in the embodiments disclosed in this utility model. Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0028] Finally: 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.
