Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the playing performance and external appearance, to increase the degree of freedom of design of a spring, and to make the device small-sized. SOLUTION: A storage room 43 is formed in a clapper 5 and a rotary buffer device 41 and a compression coil spring 42 are built in the storage room 43. A rotary arm 48 of the rotary buffer device 41 is projected upward from an opening 44 formed on the top surface of the clapper 5. The compression coil spring 42 energizes the rotary arm 48 in the direction to which the keyboard lid 8 is opened and a roller 76 provided a top is pressed against the under surface of the keyboard lid 8. The keyboard lid 8 when closing presses down the rotary arm 48 against the spring force of the compression coil spring 42. At this time, the rotary buffer device 41 damps the keyboard lid 8. Therefore, the keyboard lid 8 is not accelerated by its own weight, but is slowly closed.

2. Description of the Related Art A general keyboard instrument such as a piano or an electronic piano has an openable / closable keyboard cover which covers an upper portion of a keyboard when not playing. This lid is long and heavy, and its rear end is pivotally attached to the instrument body or the back of the lid via hinges. Since it is necessary to support and push up, a large operation force is required. In addition, during the closing operation, the center of gravity moves forward from the middle and it suddenly falls, so it hits the mouth stick violently and generates a loud impact sound, or accidentally touches the finger with the mouth stick and the keyboard lid. Between them.

However, since the above-mentioned conventional opening and closing device 1 is installed on the upper surface of the clap 5, it becomes a hindrance at the time of performance, and there is a problem that the performance is reduced. Further, such a structure that is installed on the clap 5 lacks smartness because the entire device is visible, and is not preferable in design of the piano. Further, since the opening angle of the keyboard lid 8 may vary depending on the type of keyboard instrument, the operating point of the opening and closing device 1 differs depending on the installation position of the opening and closing device 1. For this reason, it is necessary to adjust the distance between the keyboard cover 8 and the roller 7 when fully opened. This distance is an important factor in relation to the operating point of the damper when the lid is closed. Furthermore, when the leaf spring 9 is incorporated into the rotary damper 2, the size of the damper itself is restricted, so that the size, shape, spring constant, and the like of the leaf spring 9 are limited, and the degree of freedom in design is reduced. There was also.

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a keyboard cover opening / closing device for a keyboard instrument for braking a keyboard cover by viscous resistance of a fluid at the time of closing the cover. Forming a storage chamber, incorporating a rotary shock absorber and a spring with a rotary arm having a roller at the upper end in the storage chamber, and projecting the rotary arm upward from an opening formed on the upper surface of the clap tree; The rotary arm is biased by a spring in a direction in which the keyboard cover opens, and the roller is pressed against the lower surface of the keyboard cover. In such a configuration, the portion of the rotary shock absorber protruding above the beat tree can be reduced, so that it does not hinder the performance and does not impair the aesthetic appearance in terms of design. The rotary shock absorber has low viscosity resistance of the fluid during the opening operation. At this time, since the spring acts in the direction to open the keyboard cover, the spring can be opened with a smaller operation force than usual. On the other hand, the rotary shock absorber brakes the movement of the keyboard lid during the closing operation because the viscous resistance of the fluid gradually increases. At this time, a spring also acts to brake the movement of the keyboard cover. Therefore, the lid closes slowly without being accelerated by its own weight.

If the cross-sectional areas of the fluid passages 63 and 64 of the side wall portions 60A and 60B are made different from each other, the rotation shaft 51
Viscous resistance of the damping oil 50 according to the rotation direction of
In other words, the rotation resistance can be changed. That is, when the rotation shaft 51 rotates in the closing direction in FIG. 6, the tip of the blade 58 contacts the inner surface of the side wall 60A on the closing direction and rotates. At this time, the damping oil 50 in the first buffer chamber 61B is transferred from the fluid passage 63 to the fluid passage 62.
The gap between the blade 58 and the side wall portion 60B moves to the second buffer chamber 61B through the fluid passage 64. At this time, the viscous resistance of the damping oil 50 increases because the cross-sectional area of the fluid passage 63 is extremely small, and a very large rotational torque is generated. On the other hand, when the rotation shaft 51 rotates in the opening direction, the tip of the blade 58 contacts the inner surface of the side wall 60B on the opening direction side and rotates. At this time, the second
The damping oil 50 in the buffer chamber 61 </ b> B
4-Fluid passage 62-Most of the fluid moves through the gap between the blade 58 and the side wall 60A to the first buffer chamber 61A. Therefore, the viscous resistance of the damping oil 50 at this time is small, and almost no rotational torque is generated. As a result, the rotary shock absorber 41 does not perform the damper function (braking function) when the rotating shaft 51 rotates in the opening direction, and performs the damper function only when rotating in the closing direction. The rotational torque can be freely changed depending on the cross-sectional area of the fluid passage 63, and the smaller the smaller, the higher the rotational torque.

The compression coil spring 42 is disposed substantially horizontally in the accommodating portion 43 of the beater 5 so as to be located forward of the rotary shock absorber 41, and the other end side locking portion 42b is shown in FIG. As described above, the cladding 5 is fixed to the inner surface of the clap 5 by the screw 78, and the coil portion 42c is housed in the vibration preventing cover 80 formed of synthetic resin or the like. The compression coil spring 42 presses the roller 76 against the lower surface of the keyboard cover 8 by imparting clockwise rotation behavior to the rotation arm 48 in the closed state shown in FIG.

Next, the operation of the switching device 40 will be described. The keyboard lid 8 has an opening / closing angle of approximately 130 °, and is in contact with the mouth stick 26 when the lid is closed, and is held in a substantially horizontal state. When the lid is closed, the rotary shock absorber 41 is held in the state shown in FIG. In this state, the arm portion 48B of the rotating arm 48 is held substantially horizontally, and the spring locking portion 48C is located behind the damper case 45. Therefore, the compression coil spring 42 is set and held in an extended state, applies a clockwise rotating force to the rotating arm 48, and presses the roller 76 against the lower surface of the keyboard lid 8. When the rotating arm 48 is rotated to be substantially vertical, the compression coil spring 42 is shortened and almost returns to its natural length, and the spring force almost disappears.

When the keyboard cover 8 is gradually opened by hand from this state, the rotating arm 48 is rotated in the opening direction in FIGS. 2 and 6 by the spring force of the compression coil spring 42 and pushes up the keyboard cover 8. Act like so. At this time, the rotary shock absorber 41 hardly functions because the viscous resistance of the damping oil 50 is small. Therefore, it can be opened with an operating force smaller by the spring force of the compression coil spring 42 than when the keyboard cover of a conventional piano having no shock absorber is opened, and as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 26 can lean against the front. This spring force is maximum in the initial stage of the cover opening operation, gradually decreases as the cover is opened, and becomes almost zero when the keyboard cover 8 is opened to a substantially vertical state. This is because when the lid 8 leans backward past the vertical
The compression coil spring 42 is rotated only by moving the center of gravity.
This is to prevent the spring force from accelerating.

When the cover 8 is completely opened, the cover 8 is inclined rearward at an angle of about 30 ° with respect to the vertical plane, and the rotating arm is rearward by an angle α (α ≒ 0 to 20 °). It is inclined. In this state, the roller 76 is preferably separated from the keyboard lid 8. This is to prevent the rotary shock absorber 41 from braking the keyboard cover 8 at the initial stage of the closing operation. Further, since the compression coil spring 42 hardly acts until the keyboard cover 8 is substantially vertical, the keyboard cover 8 is rotated until the keyboard cover 8 becomes substantially vertical with the same operating force as when closing the conventional keyboard cover. Can be done.

When the keyboard lid 8 rotates forward and comes into contact with the roller 76, the rotating arm 48 rotates in the closing direction due to the weight of the keyboard lid 8. In addition, the rotation shaft 51 also rotates in the closing direction with the rotation of the rotation arm 48, so that the rotary shock absorber 41 is rotated.
Acts as a large rotational resistance on the keyboard lid 8, in other words, the damper function works to brake the movement of the keyboard lid 8.
When the rotating arm 48 rotates in the closing direction, the compression coil spring 42 gradually expands, the spring force increases, and the shock absorber 4
The keyboard lid 8 is braked in cooperation with 1. Therefore, the keyboard lid 8 is not accelerated by its own weight, but closes slowly and

Further, since the compression coil spring 42 for imparting the opening behavior to the rotation arm 48 is not incorporated in the rotary shock absorber 41, there is little restriction on the compression coil spring 42, and the spring force and the size are large. The length and the like can be freely changed. In particular, it is easy to adjust the distance between the keyboard lid 8 and the roller 76 when fully opened. Further, since the compression coil spring 42 is not incorporated in the rotary shock absorber 41, the size can be reduced.
