Description

Die bekannten Wirbel zum Spannen der Saiten auf Musikinstrumenten sind in einem bestimmten Durchmesser leicht konisch hergestellt und im Hals des Musikinstruments so drehbar angeordnet, daß sie unter dem Zug der Saiten in jeder Drehstellung stehenbleiben. Infolge des großen Durchmessers der Wirbel und durch die Reibung derselben im Geigenhals ist ein genaues Abstimmen der Saiten schwer, weil größtenteils nur ein ruckweises Drehen der Wirbel möglich ist und durch eine kleine Vor- oder Rückwärtsdrehung des Wirbels schon ein Verstimmen einer Saite erfolgt.The well-known pegs for tensioning the strings on musical instruments are made slightly conical in a certain diameter and in the neck of the Musical instrument so rotatably arranged that they are under the tension of the strings in each Stop turning position. As a result of the large diameter of the vertebrae and through the friction of the same in the neck of the violin makes it difficult to tune the strings precisely, because for the most part only a jerky turning of the vertebrae is possible and through one A small forward or backward rotation of the peg already detuned a string.

Dieser Nachteil wird durch den Wirbel nach der Erfindung dadurch behoben, daß der Drehzapfen des Wirbels innerhalb des Aufwickelbereichs der Saite einen kleineren Durchmesser besitzt wie der übrige Teil des in den Lagerungen gehaltenen Drehzapfens. Durch diese Untersetzung wird ein leichteres Drehen des Wirbels und dadurch ein genaues Stimmen der Saiten ermöglicht, weil der Wirbel völlig ruckfrei gedreht werden kann. Dies wird hauptsächlich auch dadurch erzielt, daß der Wirbel nicht so stramm im Instrumentenhals sitzen muß wie die bekannten Ausführungen, um ein Nachlassen der Spannung der Saiten zu vermeiden Die Zeichnung veranschaulicht den Erfindungsgegenstand in einem Ausführungsbeispiel.This disadvantage is eliminated by the vortex according to the invention, that the pivot of the peg is smaller within the winding area of the string Has the same diameter as the rest of the pivot pin held in the bearings. This reduction makes turning the vortex easier and thus a enables precise tuning of the strings because the pegs are rotated without jerking can. This is mainly achieved by the fact that the vortex is not so tight must sit in the neck of the instrument, like the known designs, in order to slacken to avoid tension of the strings. The drawing illustrates the subject matter of the invention in one embodiment.

In dem Hals a des Saitenmusikinstruments sind die Wirbel b mit ihrem leicht konischen Zapfen c von beiden Seiten her wechselweise in bekannter Weise drehbar eingesteckt. Gemäß der Erfindung sind die Drehzapfen c der Wirbel b zwischen den Ligerungend mit kleinerem Durchmessere hergestellt, auf denen die Saiten/ aufgewickelt werden. Die Wirbel brauchen nicht mehr wie bisher so stramm im Instrumentenhals zu sitzen und können aus jedem hierzu geeigneten Material, wie Holz, Metall, Kunststoff usw., bestehen.In the neck a of the stringed musical instrument the pegs b are with hers slightly conical pin c from both sides alternately in a known manner inserted rotatable. According to the invention, the trunnions c are the vertebrae b between The loosing end is made with smaller diameters on which the strings / are wound will. The vertebrae no longer need to be so tight in the neck of the instrument as before to sit and can be made of any suitable material, such as wood, metal, plastic etc. exist.
