Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to scale score reading learning used for learning the scale on a staff in piano learning and the position of the keyboard to be struck, which can be easily learned even without a piano.
Background Art
[0002] Conventionally, when learning scale score reading, musical scores were written on a staff on paper on a desk, or magnets or the like representing musical scores were attached to the staff on a whiteboard, or it was learning by sitting in front of an actual piano using an electro-optical device, a liquid crystal device, etc.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0005] The conventional method of placing a scale display board on the keyboard of a piano for learning has the disadvantage that a piano is required, so the learning place is limited, it is difficult to secure learning time, and there is a large economic and space burden for purchasing and installing a piano. The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages, and an object thereof is to provide a compact learning set that can efficiently perform scale score reading learning anytime and anywhere even without a piano body.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0006] To solve the above problems, the scale reading learning set (1) of the present invention is characterized by having the following configuration. • The main body's top plate (8) features a staff with 4 octaves (2) and a keyboard with 4 octaves (3). • A transparent sheet (6) for writing musical notes, which is housed inside the main unit and has musical note stamps on it. • Left and right sheet winding knobs (4)(5) for winding up the transparent sheet (6) for writing musical notes. The transparent sheet for writing musical notes (6) is connected to the sheet winding shaft (13) inside the main body via the transparent sheet retraction hole (7) in the main body. By operating the sheet winding knobs (4) and (5) on the front of the main unit, multiple musical note marks on the transparent sheet for writing musical notes (6) can be moved left and right across four octaves (2) of the musical staff. To prevent the sheet winding shaft (13) from slipping or bouncing back when winding up the transparent sheet for writing musical notes (6), a sheet winding shaft slip and bounce prevention plate is installed. [Effects of the Invention]
[0007] This invention features a compact, palm-sized design with a four-octave staff and keyboard, making it possible to learn to read musical scales anytime, anywhere, even in locations without a piano. Furthermore, since the transparent sheet (6) on which numerous musical notes are written moves and is displayed in conjunction with the operation of the sheet winding knobs (4) and (5), efficient and repetitive learning becomes possible, resulting in the effect of solving economic, time, and space-related problems. [Brief explanation of the drawing]
[0008] [Figure 1] This invention provides a scale sight-reading learning set, and includes a plan view and inclined view of a transparent sheet with four octaves of musical staff lines and keyboard markings, along with movable musical note markers. [Figure 2] This is an exploded view of the scale reading learning set of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0009] Regarding the functions of the present invention, the scale display can be made flexible and various scale scores can be read by moving the transparent score-notation sheet (6) with score notations left and right. In addition, on the upper part of the scale score reading learning set (1), a lid (16) that can be opened and closed is provided via a hinge (17). When not in use, by closing the lid (16), the internal transparent score-notation sheet (7) and the keyboard 4 octaves (3) can be protected.
Example
[0010] Hereinafter, an example will be described according to the accompanying drawings. On the scale score reading learning set (1) integrally formed of a low-foam PVC board with a 4-octave staff notation (2) and a 4-octave keyboard, a transparent score-notation sheet (6) with score notations on a durable transparent sheet is provided. By turning the sheet winding knobs (4) and (5) left and right, various score readings can be made when the score notations of the sheet wound up in advance move on the 4-octave staff notation (2).

Claims
[Claim 1] The scale reading learning set comprises a main body (1) with a staff of four octaves (2), a sheet winding knob (4) (5) that is rotatably supported, and a transparent sheet (6) for writing musical notes that is stretched over the sheet winding knob (4) (5) via a transparent sheet retraction hole (7) for writing musical notes, and is characterized in that by rotating the sheet winding knob (4) (5), the musical note marks written on the transparent sheet (6) move along the staff of two.
