Abstract

The handrest facilitates the supporting of musical instruments and similar objects. When the player supports a musical instrument over long periods of times, the tendon between his thumb and wrist will be susceptible to tenosynovitis and the edge of his thumb will grow a callus. A handrest consisting of the parts (1-6) shown in figure 1 shifts the weight of the object to be supported from the thumb to the area between the thumb and the index finger. The control members allow the handrest to be adapted to different hand sizes and playing styles. The use of a handrest allows longer practising periods and more rapid and sensitive fingering.

Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、木管楽器及び同等の対象物を支持することを容易にするハンドレスト(手置き台)に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
これまで木管楽器の重量は、親指の先端部/親指の先端縁によって支持するのが常である。演奏者の首に掛けたベルトによって、たとえば、サクソフォーン等のより重量のある楽器を支えるのが通常であった。
【0003】
補助手段なしで楽器を支持する従来の方法によると、親指と手首の間の腱が緊張して腱滑膜炎を生じていた。また、親指先端縁に、たこを形成し、こすれた領域に腫瘍が成長し始めるという問題も起こる。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
所定のハンドレストを用いるとき、木管楽器の重さが親指からずれて、親指と人差し指の間に重なるようになる。これにより、腱の外被上の緊張を和らげ、そして、親指に腫瘍が成長することがなくなるであろう。この結果、練習期間を長くすることができ、またより早く熟達でき、より敏感な指使いを与えることができる。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明のハンドレストは、手のひらの位置に回転継手を有し、異なる演奏スタイルおよび手に対する最適な手の軌跡に合わせて、調整部材により楽器の位置を調整できる。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明は、図面を参照して以下で詳細に説明される。図1は、使用者の右手側から見たハンドレストを示す。図2は、使用者から見たハンドレストを示す。
【0007】
ハンドレストは、締結ループ1によって支持されて対象物に固定され、この締結ループは、対象物の回りにしっかりと締め付けられる。締結ループは、楽器の直径に応じてその寸法を変えられる。カウンターバランス用の支持体2が締結リングに取付けられ、この支持体は、楽器を指で支えることができないオープンG音の指操作の間、このカウンターバランスを維持できる。締結ループが取り付けられる部位には、円筒部分3が設けられこの円筒部分は、締結ループの軸方向下側に伸びて、一般的に8〜10cmの長さを有する。円筒部分3は、スライドレール、入れ子式部材又は同等物によってハンドレストの垂直長さを調整する。その結果、楽器に対して異なる手の大きさに合わせて最適な高さを与えることができる。
【0008】
本装置は、円筒部分3に対して90°の角度で回転継手を介して連結された第2のより短い円筒部分4を備えている。その結果、異なる指の長さに対する最適な距離を与えるために、スライドレール、入れ子式部材または同等物によってハンドレストの長さを調整することができる。円筒部分4は、スペーサ5に回転継手を介して連結されている。この回転継手を用いることにより、異なる位置にロックすることができ、回転によりその長さを調整することができる。
【0009】
スペーサ5は、ハンドレストのハンドル部分6に円筒部分4を固定する。このスペーサ5は、異なる演奏スタイルおよび手に対する最適な手の軌跡に合わせて、手のひらの位置7における高さ及び角度を調整することができる。ハンドル部分6は、手に合った形状に与えられており、一般的にプラスチックにより作られている。ハンドルは、演奏者の親指と人差し指との間の囲まれた部分に支持され、この領域に楽器の重さが移動する。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a hand rest that facilitates supporting woodwind instruments and equivalent objects.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Heretofore, the weight of a woodwind instrument has always been supported by the tip of the thumb / tip of the thumb. Belts around the performer's neck usually supported heavier instruments, such as saxophones.
[0003]
According to conventional methods of supporting instruments without aids, the tendon between the thumb and wrist is tense, causing tenosynovitis. In addition, there is also a problem that an octopus is formed at the tip edge of the thumb, and the tumor begins to grow in the rubbed area.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
When using a given handrest, the weight of the woodwind instrument will be offset from the thumb and will overlap between the thumb and the index finger. This will relieve tension on the tendon mantle and will prevent tumor growth on the thumb. As a result, the practice period can be lengthened, and the proficiency can be improved more quickly, and more sensitive fingering can be given.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The handrest of the present invention has a rotary joint at the position of the palm, and the position of the musical instrument can be adjusted by the adjusting member in accordance with different playing styles and an optimal hand trajectory for the hand.
[0006]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the handrest viewed from the right hand side of the user. FIG. 2 shows the handrest as seen from the user.
[0007]
The handrest is supported and fastened to the object by means of a fastening loop 1 which is tightened tightly around the object. The size of the fastening loop can be changed according to the diameter of the instrument. A counterbalance support 2 is attached to the fastening ring, and this support can maintain the counterbalance during the finger operation of the open G sound that cannot support the instrument with the finger. At the site where the fastening loop is attached, a cylindrical part 3 is provided, which extends axially below the fastening loop and has a length of generally 8 to 10 cm. The cylindrical part 3 adjusts the vertical length of the handrest by means of slide rails, telescopic members or the like. As a result, it is possible to provide the musical instrument with an optimal height according to different hand sizes.
[0008]
The device comprises a second shorter cylindrical part 4 connected via a rotary joint to the cylindrical part 3 at an angle of 90 °. As a result, the length of the handrest can be adjusted by slide rails, telescoping members or the like to provide optimal distances for different finger lengths. The cylindrical portion 4 is connected to the spacer 5 via a rotary joint. By using this rotary joint, it is possible to lock at different positions, and its length can be adjusted by rotation.
[0009]
The spacer 5 fixes the cylindrical part 4 to the handle part 6 of the handrest. The spacer 5 can adjust the height and angle at the palm position 7 in accordance with the optimal hand trajectory for different playing styles and hands. The handle portion 6 is provided in a shape that fits the hand and is generally made of plastic. The handle is supported by the enclosed portion between the player's thumb and index finger, into which the weight of the instrument moves.
