Description

  The present invention relates to a case body structure of a keyboard instrument in which a keyboard such as an electronic musical instrument is installed, and to a case body structure of a keyboard instrument having an improved case body.

Conventionally, there are various types of keyboard instrument case bodies, but a general case body is formed by superposing an upper case and a lower case. An example of such a technique is disclosed in Utility Model Registration No. 2545353. This conventional technique is a technique that allows a lower case to be shared by different types of keyboard instruments, and is configured to fit and cover an upper case that is slightly larger than the lower case.
Utility Model Registration No. 2545353

  Even with the above-described conventional technology, although the cost is reduced to some extent, there are considerable limitations in terms of design and structure. For example, the size of the lower case that is commonly used by different models can be determined. For example, if you want to make the upper case smaller in order to obtain a compact instrument by reducing the longitudinal direction of the instrument, make the upper case smaller than the lower case. It is not possible. It is also possible to keep the lower case small, but for models that want to make the upper case larger, it is good if there is not much difference between the upper and lower cases, but if the lower case is too small compared to the upper case, there will be a problem with stability. is there.

  Further, the upper panel portion, which is the upper surface of the upper case, is often inclined, but there are cases where the degree of inclination (including horizontal) is desired to be changed depending on the model. In this case, it seems that it is sufficient to change the angle of the upper surface of the upper case to correspond to another model, but there is a difficulty in terms of safety and strength of a connecting portion such as a screw for connecting the upper and lower cases. Generally, since no screw is exposed on the upper surface of the upper case, it is necessary to screw it from the bottom to the top. In this case, the screw holes formed on the back surface of the upper case are generally arranged in a direction perpendicular to the upper panel in order to avoid undercut of the mold. For this reason, if the inclination of the upper panel portion is changed, the inclination of the screw hole also changes, so it is necessary to change the angle of the hole through which the screw passes from the lower case, and it becomes difficult to cope with different models.

  Therefore, the screw holes in the upper case can be installed as long holes in the longitudinal direction to absorb the difference in relative angle with the screw, but in this case, when attaching the upper case and the lower case There is a problem that accuracy is not achieved. In particular, when fixing is performed at many locations, there are problems such as variations between the fixed locations and distortion of the case.

  Such a problem arises from the mutual fixing structure that fixes the lower case and the upper case, and there is room for improvement in this fixing structure.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above points. In a keyboard instrument, the structure for attaching and fixing at least the upper case and the lower case is improved, and the design and structural constraints of the case body are reduced.

  In a keyboard instrument, the keyboard is attached to the lower case part, or the keyboard is placed from the middle part to the front part of the lower case part, so the key is supported at a position about the key length from the front end part of the lower case part. It becomes the structure to do. In other words, the keyboard instrument has at least the lower case front part and the keyboard about the front and rear width of the keyboard, and the size of the rear part and the upper case part of the lower case front part about the front and rear width of the keyboard. How far behind the front of the lower case is depends on the design and model. Further, since the keyboard is almost the same even in different models, or the keyboard is common to different models, the key support portion that supports this keyboard is also shared by different models. In other words, a specific type of case structure is formed by a single type of case portion and a plurality of types of one case portion by using a portion that supports a keyboard that is common to different models as a fixed portion of multiple cases. In addition, it is very easy to form a case structure other than a specific type by using a single type of case portion and a plurality of types of other case portions.

Therefore, as in the first to twelfth aspects of the present invention, the basic case portion or the first case portion is the lower case portion, and the key support portion that supports the key is connected to the other case portion or the second case portion ( (Or a fixed portion) makes it very easy to handle multiple models (multiple designs). In addition, since the key support portion and the base end portion of the keyboard are portions that support the dynamic keyboard, they have a robust structure, and both case portions can be firmly fixed.

  In the second and third aspects, since the first case portion, the second case portion, and the keyboard are fixed by the locking means, an effect of simplification of assembly by tightening screws or the like can be obtained.

Similarly to the above, the key support portion that supports the key is an attachment (fixed) portion of the other case portion. That is, this attachment portion is horizontal in the key arrangement direction and is one place in the longitudinal direction of the instrument. Therefore, by changing the height of the other case attached to the back of the basic case portion, the height of the attachment portion changes, so the angle of the basic case portion changes and the upper surface of the keyboard becomes horizontal when the key is not pressed. It is possible to easily deal with different types of musical instruments having different keyboard tilt angles, such as musical instruments, musical instruments in which the upper surface of the keyboard is horizontal when a key is pressed.

  According to the tenth aspect, the same effect as that of the ninth aspect can be obtained only by changing the height of the leg seat without changing the case main body of the other case portion. The leg seat may be configured integrally with the case main body of another case, or may be configured to be attached separately.

  In Claim 11, a coupling | bonding means is inserted in the through-hole provided in the coupling | bond part of another case part or the 2nd case part, and a contact part is opposite to the key support part of a basic case part or a 1st case part. Since the other case part and the basic case part and the base end part of the key are combined, or the second case part, the first case part and the base end part of the key are defined by the through hole and the connecting means. Can be held and fixed at predetermined positions.

According to the first to twelfth aspects, it is very easy to cope with a plurality of models (plural designs), and both the case portions can be firmly fixed at the key support portion and the base end portion of the keyboard.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, the effect of simplification of assembly by further tightening of screws or the like can be obtained.

  According to the third aspect of the present invention, the effect of simplification of assembly by tightening screws and the like can be obtained, and the rear case can be constituted by the lower portion, the back surface portion, and the upper surface portion of the second case portion.

  According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since the rising portion and the wall portion constitute a plurality of vertical ribs in the key arrangement direction where the most force is applied during performance, the key support portion is reinforced and further strengthened. be able to.

  According to the sixth aspect, it is possible to easily cope with different types of musical instruments having different keyboard tilt angles. At this time, the boundary portion between the bottom surface portion and the raised portion of the basic case portion interferes with the installation surface. Therefore, various types of musical instruments can be easily obtained.

  According to the seventh aspect, it is further easy to form the first frame and the second frame of the other case part by molding or the like.

  According to the eighth aspect, in addition to the effect of the seventh aspect, the first frame and the second frame can be molded at the same time, and the manufacture becomes easy.

  According to the ninth aspect of the present invention, a different instrument such as a musical instrument in which the upper surface of the keyboard is horizontal when the key is not pressed, a musical instrument in which the upper surface of the keyboard is horizontal when the key is pressed, etc. Can be easily accommodated.

  According to the tenth aspect, the same effect as that of the ninth aspect can be obtained only by changing the height of the leg seat without changing the case main body of the other case portion.
