Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne le dispositif de ligature assurant la
fixation de l'anche sur le bec d'un instrument à vent.The invention relates to the ligating device ensuring the
fixing the reed on the mouthpiece of a wind instrument.
On rencontre différents types de ligatures amovibles et indépen
dantes du bec que l'on peut classer en 2 grandes catégories principales
1. Les ligatures en métal (ou matériau rigide) formant un
collier plat de serrage.There are different types of removable and independent ligatures
bill beaks which can be classified into 2 main main categories
1. The metal ligatures (or rigid material) forming a
flat clamping collar.
2. Les ligatures souples (en cuir ou synthétique) constituées
par une bande souple à profil en U.2. Flexible ligatures (leather or synthetic) made up
by a flexible band with U profile.
Les premières permettent un maintien fixe de l'anche avec
un serrage efficace mais rigide.The first allow a fixed hold of the reed with
effective but rigid tightening.
Les secondes à l'inverse, grâce à la souplesse du matériau,
laisse une relative liberté à l'anche, mais ont l'inconvénient d'amortir,
d'étouffer certaines vibrations de l'anche et du bec.The reverse, thanks to the flexibility of the material,
leaves a relative freedom to the reed, but have the disadvantage of damping,
to stifle certain vibrations of the reed and the beak.
Dans les deux cas, l'effort de serrage, graduel ou non selon
l'élasticité propre du matériau utilisé, est freiné par l'importante
surface de frottement ligature-bec. Ce frottement entrave également
la bonne propagation et résonnance de toutes les vibrations de l'anche
et du bec.In both cases, the clamping force, gradual or not depending on
the inherent elasticity of the material used, is hampered by the important
friction surface ligature-beak. This friction also hinders
the good propagation and resonance of all the vibrations of the reed
and beak.
Afin d'offrir une réelle possibilité de contrôle du serrage
de l'anche et une totale liberté de résonnance du son, la présente
invention propose un original ensemble métallique de serrage par tension
de 4 fils. Ceux-ci sont fixés à une plaque cambrée maintenant l'anche
et réunis en partie supérieure du bec (diamétralement opposée à l'anche)
par 2 plots cylindriques traversés d'une vis de serrage.In order to offer a real possibility of tightening control
of the reed and a total freedom of resonance of the sound, the present
invention proposes an original metal tension clamping assembly
of 4 sons. These are attached to a curved plate holding the reed
and joined in the upper part of the beak (diametrically opposite to the reed)
by 2 cylindrical studs crossed by a clamping screw.
Une telle conception offre l'avantage de minimiser les frotte
ments sur le bec puisque seulement des génératrices de cylindres (fils,
plots) sont en contact. I1 en résulte une meilleure transmission de
l'effort graduel de serrage sur l'anche, tout en préservant aux 4
fils métalliques leur élasticité maximale, précieuse qualité dans le fonctionnement vibratoire bec-anche.Such a design offers the advantage of minimizing rubs
on the spout since only cylinder generators (wires,
studs) are in contact. I1 results in a better transmission of
the gradual tightening effort on the reed, while preserving the 4
metallic threads their maximum elasticity, precious quality in the vibratory operation reed.
Dans le même esprit de liberté de propagation des vibrations
harmoniques, la plaque métallique cambrée applique l'effort de serrage
par une seule ligne droite (génératrice de cylindre) située en axe
de symétrie de l'anche. In the same spirit of freedom to propagate vibrations
harmonics, the arched metal plate applies the clamping force
by a single straight line (cylinder generator) located in the axis
of reed symmetry.
Toutes ces qualités obtenues confèrent au son plus de brillance et de puissance avec une grande souplesse d'attaque. All these qualities obtained give the sound more shine and power with great flexibility of attack.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention
La figure 1 représente la ligature en perspective.The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention
Figure 1 shows the ligature in perspective.
La figure 2 représente en vue de face, la plaque (C) en contact avec l'anche (A). Figure 2 shows in front view, the plate (C) in contact with the reed (A).
L'invention englobe toutes les variantes au mode de réalisation suivant
Tout d'abord, la plaque (C) est cambrée ou issue d'un tube cylindrique de rayon supérieur à celui du talon de l'anche (A) de façon à ménager un jeu latéral (J) (Fig 2).The invention encompasses all variants of the following embodiment
First of all, the plate (C) is arched or comes from a cylindrical tube with a radius greater than that of the heel of the reed (A) so as to provide lateral play (J) (Fig 2).
4 fils (F) de faible diamètre d'une longueur adaptée à chaque modèle de bec, sont ensuite brasés à l'une de leurs extrémités sur la plaque (C) (en laissant un jeu (J') avec le bord de l'anche), puis à l'autre sur les 2 plots cylindriques (P). 4 wires (F) of small diameter with a length adapted to each model of spout, are then soldered at one of their ends to the plate (C) (leaving a clearance (J ') with the edge of the reed), then to the other on the 2 cylindrical studs (P).
Une vis de serrage (V) traverse ces 2 plots (l'un percé, l'autre taraudé) pour assurer le serrage progressif de l'ensemble. A clamping screw (V) crosses these 2 studs (one drilled, the other threaded) to ensure progressive tightening of the assembly.
Le métal, identique ou non pour tous ces différents éléments est choisi pour ses propriétés spécifiques (vis & plots : résistance mécanique ; Fils : résistance à l'allongement, élasticité ; Plaque: résonnance acoustique). The metal, identical or not for all these different elements is chosen for its specific properties (screws & studs: mechanical resistance; Wires: resistance to elongation, elasticity; Plate: acoustic resonance).
L'invention vise donc, à titre de produits d'assemblages industriels, tous les modèles de ligatures pour becs d'instruments à vent. The invention therefore relates, as products of industrial assemblies, to all models of ligatures for mouthpieces of wind instruments.
