Definitions
- the invention relates to a hand-operated instrument with housing parts for treble and bass connected by a bellows according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Hand-operated instruments that have the keyboard in an angled shape on the right side, the treble, are one of the various types of accordion. This arrangement of the keyboard goes back to the first Viennese or the first French instruments. Such an accordion is described in, for example U.S. 2,983,178 A .
- a diatonic accordion with mutually inclined mounting surfaces for attaching the tone generating devices to the treble and bass sides is known in order to thereby achieve an enhanced sound effect.
- a treble keyboard is also arranged on the treble side, specifically as an angled extension to the mounting surface. The treble keyboard thus forms a to Fretboard adjacent to the mounting surface, which, detached from the mounting surface, forms an independent housing part. Grip levels known from hand pull instruments can thus be transferred to instruments with an improved sound effect.
- a musical instrument in which a normal accordion part with bellows-operated reeds carrying reeds and a polyphonic electric tone generator with the associated electric tone generator and the associated electronic components are accommodated in one and the same instrument in the form of an accordion.
- the electronic tone generator and the contact part in a housing whose dimensions are approximately the same as those of a normal accordion, the following is provided.
- the outwardly angled grip plate with the key mechanism mounted on it is offset a little bit, for example 1 to 5 cm, towards the front of the accordion.
- a disadvantage of all previously known shapes for accordions is that the natural posture of the accordion player is not sufficiently taken into account.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to create a hand-pulled instrument, in particular an accordion, which is improved from an ergonomic point of view.
- the invention is not based on previous technical conditions in the instrument, but on the optimal hand and arm posture for the player to play the hand traction instrument, in particular the accordion.
- the reasons for the previous arrangement of the keyboard lie in the mechanical internal structure of the instrument.
- the solution according to the invention has the effect that the keyboard on the treble side is displaced forwards towards the front side of the manual traction instrument, in particular the accordion, and its angle can be adapted to the human anatomy.
- the hand pull instrument, in particular the accordion can then be played relaxed and easily without the player having to twist and cramp unnaturally.
- the "arm-hand line" can be played without significant bending of the hand.
- the shoulder area can be relieved as the upper arms no longer have to be turned outwards. Only the fingers have to be angled in an ergonomic movement to operate the keys or buttons. This gives the player a completely light and relaxed, never-before-seen feeling of playing. This fact is a decisive factor, especially with children, as poor posture in childhood can have effects on health consequences.
- the tone and / or signal generators as a mechanical internal structure of the instrument can be positioned spatially directly behind the treble keyboard.
- the treble keyboard thus forms an upper compartment with cover to a lower compartment below, in which the tone and / or signal generators are arranged.
- the cover is a lateral cover in relation to an instrument center plane, whereby the cover can be selected partially or fully.
- the upper compartment and the lower compartment are then preferably aligned with respect to a bellows of the manual pulling instrument.
- the compartment height of the sub-compartment can be determined by the width of a front side surface of the corner-columned hollow body.
- reed blocks carrying bellows-operated reeds a polyphonic electrical tone or signal generator with the associated electronic components can be accommodated together or alternatively in one and the same instrument, in particular in the treble housing and possibly in the bellows.
- Such an instrument allows to play either acoustically with reeds with natural tone generation by flowing air or with electronic tone and / or signal generation or with both types of tone generation at the same time. If it is an exclusively electronic musical instrument, it has no acoustic sounds generated by the flowing air.
- the invention relates to a manual instrument, in particular an accordion, with housing parts connected by a bellows 1 for the treble, the treble housing 2, and bass, the bass housing 3. Furthermore, the manual instrument comprises the associated tone and / or signal generator and mechanical parts (not shown) .
- a treble keyboard 4 is built into the treble housing 2 and a bass keyboard 5 is built into the bass housing 3.
- the treble housing 2 is designed as a corner-pillar hollow body 6 which is open on the bellows side and has an opening 7 on the opposite side for receiving a treble cover 8.
- the treble cover 8 is arranged at an acute angle to an instrument center plane M between the two housing parts 2, 3 in such a way that the treble housing 2 tapers towards the instrument front side V and the treble cover 8 is thereby displaced forwards.
- the treble cover 8 forms the treble keyboard 4.
- the treble keyboard 4 thus preferably closes the opening 7 of the hollow body 6 in the form of a corner column and is thus integrated into the three-dimensional shape of the treble housing 2.
- the treble housing 2 delimits a space 9 via the hollow body 6 with a column (cf. Fig. 4 ), which is suitable for receiving the tone and / or signal generator, valves, key mechanisms, etc.
- the treble keyboard 4 is preferably arranged at such a distance from the bellows 1 that an arrangement plane D of the treble cover 8 penetrates the instrument center plane M outside the instrument base area.
- the treble keyboard 4 is preferably arranged in an angular range of 30 ° to 80 ° to the center plane M of the instrument.
- the corner-pillar hollow body 6 preferably has a cross-section of a triangle or convex square or pentagon, whereby the forwardly displaced treble keyboard 4 can be aligned at angles to the instrument center plane M that take into account the human anatomy and a hollow body 6 with sufficient dimensions for recording the sound - and / or provide signal generator.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrated illustrative example, which is not part of the invention, the cross-section of the eckklaligen hollow body 6 of the treble housing 2 is essentially triangular with one side to the bellows 1, one side to the rear 12 of the manual traction instrument and one side to the treble keyboard 4.
- the side surface 14 and the rest Side surfaces of the hollow body 6 with a columnar shape can be flat, curved and / or angular.
- the treble keyboard 4 and the bass keyboard 5 can be designed as a piano keyboard or a button keyboard.
- the FIGS. 1 and 2 show, according to a first embodiment, the treble keyboard 4 as a piano keyboard.
- the treble keyboard 4 preferably has a vertical keyboard axis.
- the bass keyboard 5 has, for example, a button keyboard.
- the treble housing 2 can be used to delimit a space 9 for receiving sound posts 10 carrying bellows-operated reeds (cf. Fig. 7 ) be provided.
- the keys 11 of the treble keyboard 4 are connected to treble valves (not shown) which, actuated by bellows, control the air flow through the reed blocks 10 carrying various reeds in a manner known per se.
- the buttons 11 can be individually provided with switches and / or contacts, etc., which are used for the individual control of electrical sound signal sources. These switches and / or signal generators are known per se and are not shown.
- a known polyphonic electrical tone and / or signal generator with the associated electronic components can be accommodated in the treble housing 2 according to the invention.
- the corner-pillar hollow body 6 is designed in cross-section like a convex square, and the width of the front side surface 14 is selected such that, together with the tapering of the hollow body 6 and thus the angular alignment of the treble keyboard 4 to the instrument center plane M, a spatial depth for the treble housing 2 is achieved, which receives the tone and / or signal generator and associated components, especially when electronic tone and / or signal generators are installed at the same time.
- the treble keyboard 4 can, however, be played in the same way as in the first exemplary embodiment, since the angular position to the instrument center plane M can be selected in the same way.
- the treble keyboard 4 can be introduced into the opening 7, the treble keyboard 4 having a number of sound outlet openings 15 for the air flowing through bellows-operated reeds (not shown) to generate sound.
- the sound outlet openings 15 can be formed in an area around the treble keyboard 4. It is preferable if the treble keyboard 4 is designed as a piano clavier, as in FIG Fig. 5 shown, each key 11 is formed with a sound outlet opening 15 along the edge 16 of the hollow body 6. The edge 16 is preferably formed on the front side surface 14 of the hollow body 6.

- the bass housing can have a fingerboard 20 for bass buttons 21, the grip plane of which is angled with respect to the instrument center plane M.
- the grip plane B of the bass buttons 21 can be arranged mirror-symmetrically to the treble keyboard 4.
- Fig. 7 Via an opening, partial areas of a mechanical tone generator in the treble housing 2.
- Fig. 8 illustrates the alignment of the treble keyboard 4 on the treble housing 2 to the front V and rear 12 of the instrument to the instrument center plane M via a floor plan of the hand-pulled instrument according to the invention, in particular the accordion.
- the treble cover 8 can be designed in the shape of a roof, in which case the treble keyboard 4 is preferably designed on the roof side which is directed towards the front side V of the instrument.
- the treble cover 8 forms the treble keyboard 4 according to the invention, the tone and / or signal generators, as the mechanical internal structure of the instrument, being able to be positioned directly behind the treble keyboard 4, in particular Fig. 7 combined with Fig. 8 shows.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Handzuginstrument mit durch einen Balg verbundenen Gehäuseteilen für Diskant und Bass nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Handzuginstrumente, die auf der rechten Seite, dem Diskant, die Tastatur in einer abgewinkelten Form angebracht haben, zählt man zu den diversen Akkordeonarten. Diese Anordnung der Tastatur geht auf die ersten Wiener oder die ersten französischen Instrumente zurück. Beschrieben ist ein solches Akkordeon beispielsweise in

Nachteilig bei allen vorbekannten Formgebungen für Akkordeons ist, dass die natürliche Körperhaltung der Akkordeonspieler keine hinreichende Berücksichtigung findet.A disadvantage of all previously known shapes for accordions is that the natural posture of the accordion player is not sufficiently taken into account.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, ein Handzuginstrument, insbesondere ein Akkordeon, zu schaffen, das unter ergonomischen Gesichtspunkten verbessert ist.The object of the present invention is therefore to create a hand-pulled instrument, in particular an accordion, which is improved from an ergonomic point of view.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of
Hierdurch wird ein Handzuginstrument, insbesondere Akkordeon, geschaffen, das durch eine Veränderung der Formgebung des Diskantgehäuses und einer veränderten Positionierung der Tastatur ergonomische Aspekte des Akkordeonspielers besser berücksichtigt.This creates a hand-held instrument, in particular an accordion, which, by changing the shape of the treble housing and changing the positioning of the keyboard, takes better account of ergonomic aspects of the accordion player.
Die bis heute und schon sehr lange verwendete Anordnung der Tastatur auf der Diskantseite an einem Griffbrett mit einer nach außen gerichteten Abwicklung, insbesondere in einem Winkel im Bereich von 20° bis 30° zur Vorderseite des Instruments, wurde aufgegeben. An diese Anordnung mussten sich bisher alle Akkordeonspieler anpassen. Sie ist jedoch aus ergonomischen Gesichtspunkten schlecht, da sie den Spieler zu einer sehr unnatürlichen Haltung sowohl der Hände, die stark abgewinkelt werden müssen, als auch der Arme, da die Ellenbogen stark nach vorn und zur Seite sowie der Oberarm nach vorn gedrückt werden müssen, zwingt. Diese unter ergonomischen Gesichtspunkten unnatürliche Haltung führt sehr schnell zu Verspannungen und damit zu weiteren unangenehmen Begleiterscheinungen beim Spieler.The arrangement of the keyboard on the treble side on a fingerboard with an outward-facing development, in particular at an angle in the range from 20 ° to 30 ° to the front of the instrument, has been abandoned, and has been used for a very long time. So far, everyone has had to follow this arrangement Customize accordion player. However, it is bad from an ergonomic point of view, as it leads the player to a very unnatural position of both the hands, which have to be bent sharply, and the arms, since the elbows have to be pushed forward and to the side and the upper arm forward. forces. This posture, which is unnatural from an ergonomic point of view, very quickly leads to tension and thus to further unpleasant side effects for the player.
Die Erfindung orientiert sich nicht an bisherigen technischen Gegebenheiten im Instrument, sondern an der für den Spieler optimalen Hand- und Armhaltung zum Spielen des Handzuginstruments, insbesondere des Akkordeons. Die Gründe für die bisherige Anordnung der Tastatur liegen mit im mechanischen Innenaufbau des Instruments. Über den Druck der Taste oder des Knopfes auf der Diskantseite wird über einen einfachen, direkt mit der Taste verbundenen Hebel eine Klappe/Ventil, die ebenfalls Bestandteil dieses Hebels ist, geöffnet. Dadurch kann Luft durch den Stimmstock und damit an die Stimmzungen strömen und diese zu Schwingungen anregen, welche die strömende Luft zerhacken, wodurch der eigentliche Klang des Instruments erzeugt wird. Da die Klappe eine bestimmte Mindestöffnung zur Erzeugung eines stabilen Klangs gewährleisten muss, müssen die Hebelverhältnisse von Taste zu Klappe den entsprechenden Weg/Hub aufweisen. Gleichzeitig ist der Platz im Innenraum des Instruments, insbesondere im Diskantgehäuse, begrenzt, so dass die Stimmstöcke nur in einer bestimmten Position mit geringen Freiheitsgraden im Instrument positioniert werden können. Durch diese Positionierung und die Hebelthematik ist eine nach außen gerichtete Abwinkelung des Griffbretts mit der Tastatur an der Diskantseite bisher als zwingend erforderlich angesehen worden.The invention is not based on previous technical conditions in the instrument, but on the optimal hand and arm posture for the player to play the hand traction instrument, in particular the accordion. The reasons for the previous arrangement of the keyboard lie in the mechanical internal structure of the instrument. By pressing the button or the button on the treble side, a simple lever connected directly to the button opens a flap / valve, which is also part of this lever. This allows air to flow through the sound post and thus to the reeds and stimulate them to vibrate, which chop up the flowing air, creating the actual sound of the instrument. Since the flap must guarantee a certain minimum opening in order to generate a stable sound, the lever ratios from key to flap must have the corresponding travel / stroke. At the same time, the space in the interior of the instrument, in particular in the treble housing, is limited, so that the reed blocks can only be positioned in the instrument in a certain position with little degrees of freedom. Due to this positioning and the lever theme, an outward angling of the fingerboard with the keyboard on the treble side has so far been viewed as absolutely necessary.
Es ist das Verdienst der Erfinder der vorliegenden Erfindung erkannt zu haben, dass es einen quasi idealen Winkel für die Tastatur des Diskantteils nach Ergonomiebetrachtungen gibt, der im Handzuginstrument, insbesondere Akkordeon, umsetzbar ist. Dabei ist es möglich, dass der innere Aufbau des Handzuginstruments zur Balgbetätigung der Tonzungen tragenden Stimmstöcke diesen Vorgaben folgen kann.It is to the merit of the inventors of the present invention to have recognized that there is a quasi-ideal angle for the keyboard of the treble part, according to ergonomic considerations, which can be implemented in the hand-held instrument, in particular the accordion. It is possible that the internal structure of the hand traction instrument can follow these specifications for the bellows actuation of the reed blocks carrying the reeds.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung bewirkt, dass die Tastatur an der Diskantseite nach vorn hin zur Frontseite des Handzuginstruments, insbesondere Akkordeons, verlagert und im Winkel an die menschliche Anatomie anpassbar ist. Das Handzuginstrument, insbesondere Akkordeon, kann dann entspannt und leicht gespielt werden, ohne dass der Spieler sich unnatürlich verdrehen und verkrampfen muss. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung kann die "Arm-Hand-Linie" ohne wesentliches Abwinkeln der Hand gespielt werden. Der Schulterbereich kann entlastet werden, indem die Oberarme nicht mehr nach außen gedreht werden müssen. Es müssen lediglich die Finger in ergonomischer Bewegung zum Betätigen der Tasten oder Knöpfe abgewinkelt werden. Damit erhält der Spieler ein vollkommen leichtes und entspanntes, noch nie dagewesenes Spielgefühl. Speziell bei Kindern ist diese Tatsache ein entscheidender Faktor, da Fehlhaltungen im Kindesalter Auswirkungen auf gesundheitliche Folgen haben können.The solution according to the invention has the effect that the keyboard on the treble side is displaced forwards towards the front side of the manual traction instrument, in particular the accordion, and its angle can be adapted to the human anatomy. The hand pull instrument, in particular the accordion, can then be played relaxed and easily without the player having to twist and cramp unnaturally. With the solution according to the invention, the "arm-hand line" can be played without significant bending of the hand. The shoulder area can be relieved as the upper arms no longer have to be turned outwards. Only the fingers have to be angled in an ergonomic movement to operate the keys or buttons. This gives the player a completely light and relaxed, never-before-seen feeling of playing. This fact is a decisive factor, especially with children, as poor posture in childhood can have effects on health consequences.
Dadurch, dass der Diskantdeckel erfindungsgemäß die Diskanttastatur bildet, sind die Ton- und/oder Signalerzeuger als mechanischer Innenaufbau des Instruments räumlich unmittelbar hinter der Diskanttastatur positionierbar. Die Diskanttastatur bildet somit ein Oberfach mit Deckung zu einem darunter liegenden Unterfach, in dem die Ton- und/oder Signalerzeuger angeordnet sind. Die Deckung ist eine seitliche Deckung bezogen auf eine Instrumentenmittelebene, wobei die Deckung teilweise oder vollständig gewählt werden kann. Das Oberfach und das Unterfach sind dann vorzugsweise fluchtend in Bezug auf einen Balg des Handzuginstruments ausgerichtet. Die Fachhöhe des Unterfachs kann bestimmt sein durch die Breite einer vorderen Seitenfläche des ecksäuligen Hohlkörpers. Die verbesserte Ergonomie wird auf diese Weise kombiniert mit einem verbesserten Platzieren der Ton- und/oder Signalerzeuger gegenüber der Diskanttastatur. Das Instrument ist dadurch gewichtsmäßig verbessert austarierbar.Because the treble cover forms the treble keyboard according to the invention, the tone and / or signal generators as a mechanical internal structure of the instrument can be positioned spatially directly behind the treble keyboard. The treble keyboard thus forms an upper compartment with cover to a lower compartment below, in which the tone and / or signal generators are arranged. The cover is a lateral cover in relation to an instrument center plane, whereby the cover can be selected partially or fully. The upper compartment and the lower compartment are then preferably aligned with respect to a bellows of the manual pulling instrument. The compartment height of the sub-compartment can be determined by the width of a front side surface of the corner-columned hollow body. The improved ergonomics are combined in this way with an improved placement of the tone and / or signal generator in relation to the treble keyboard. As a result, the instrument can be balanced in an improved weight.
Vorteilhaft ist ferner, dass bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Handzuginstrument balgbetätigte Tonzungen tragende Stimmstöcke, ein polyphoner elektrischer Ton- oder Signalerzeuger mit den zugehörigen elektronischen Bauteilen zusammen oder alternativ in ein und demselben Instrument, insbesondere in dem Diskantgehäuse und gegebenenfalls in dem Balg, untergebracht sein können. Ein solches Instrument gestattet, entweder akustisch mit Stimmzungen unter natürlicher Tonerzeugung durch strömende Luft oder mit elektronischer Ton- und/oder Signalerzeugung oder mit beiden Arten von Tonerzeugungen gleichzeitig zu spielen. Handelt es sich um ein ausschließlich elektronisches Musikinstrument, weist dieses keine durch strömende Luft erzeugte akustischen Klänge auf.It is also advantageous that in the hand-pulled instrument according to the invention, reed blocks carrying bellows-operated reeds, a polyphonic electrical tone or signal generator with the associated electronic components can be accommodated together or alternatively in one and the same instrument, in particular in the treble housing and possibly in the bellows. Such an instrument allows to play either acoustically with reeds with natural tone generation by flowing air or with electronic tone and / or signal generation or with both types of tone generation at the same time. If it is an exclusively electronic musical instrument, it has no acoustic sounds generated by the flowing air.
