    摘要: Composite or plastic molded articles used in a grand piano piano action. The articles make up a piano action with less dynamic mass which is, thus, more responsive. In addition, the new action provides the extremely valuable collateral benefits of increased efficiency of manufacture and maintenance. The invention also provides the capability to achieve true half stroke design in both the sharp and white keys at the same time. Additionally, the application discloses a universal composite grand piano piano action that is capable of being installed into any brand of grand piano.

    摘要: A muting device for a piano includes a capstan screw, a support rail, a support, a jack, a shank rail, a hammer shank, a hammer and at least one string with respect to each key. Each key is divided into a back portion and a front portion with respect to the rotation axis. This front portion of the key is depressed by a performer, while the back portion of the key is inserted into a key driving mechanism of the grand piano. In addition, a transmitting member (e.g., another capstan screw) transmits force from the key to the hammer. The transmitting member is inserted between an upper surface of the key and a lower surface of the support. The transmitting member contacts the upper surface of the key between the capstan screw and a rotation center of the key, and it also contacts with the lower surface of the support between a position at which the capstan screw comes contacts the support and a position at which the jack is connected to the support. Using two capstan screws, it is possible to simulate the double action of the key of a grand piano. In non-key-depression state, a string striking stroke between the hammer and string is reduced to mute a piano sound.

    摘要: The subject grand piano action, in common with all piano actions, comprises driving apparatus comprising the key and wippen levers, drive apparatus comprising the hammer assembly and apparatus interconnecting the two and providing for disengagement and reengagement of the driven with the driving apparatus. In the subject action the interconnecting apparatus comprises the jack, pivoted to the free end of the wippen lever and a repetition spring pivoted at both ends, one end at the free end of the jack, the other on the hammer shank. When the key is played and the free end of the wippen lever rises, a cam on the side of the jack facing away from the wippen lever engages a button mounted on the hammer rail and this engagement forces the end of the jack along a hard felt cam on the hammer knuckle. The cams on the jack and hammer knuckle are contoured such that the jack end and the jack actuation button remain in contact or close proximity to their respective cams throughout engagement and dis-engagement of the jack. There are two mechanical adjustments and one spring adjustment in the action. This configuration enables a simpler, quieter, easier to adjust action which stays in adjustment for longer periods of playing time and with no sacrifice in performance.

    摘要: An improvement for grand piano actions reduces unwanted friction between the repetition lever and the hammer shank. The conventional grand piano knuckle is replaced by a lever disposed generally parallel to the repetition lever and pivotally secured thereto at one end. An adjustable spring provides a force biasing the lever away from the repetition lever. A travel limit adjusts the maximum pivotal excursion of the lever relative to the repetition lever. At the opposite end of the lever, a centrally pivoted platform structure is pivotally secured. The structure includes a surface which engages the hammer shank and at least one brake surface which engages the repetition lever.

    摘要: In application of the invention to a keyboard musical instrument such as a piano, the key is guided by a deformable parallelogram linkage, so that during its actuated displacement, the key remains parallel to its original orientation; between each key and the associated hammer is interposed a transmission which, when the key is depressed, gives the hammer an accelerated movement with respect to the movement of depression of the said key; the release of the transmission for the free return of the hammer after striking, is effected after the full depression of the key during the sole inertia movement of the hammer towards the wire; the effect of the soft pedal is obtained by continuous modification of the active length of an intermediate lever of the transmission.

    摘要: The butt flange of a piano action is molded of a plastic material, a preferred example being polypropylene. In one embodiment of the invention the butt flange is provided with a relatively thin section so that the pivot pin for the hammer butt is capable of translatory movement. A spring holds the butt flange against such flexing, and precludes such translatory movement of the pivot unless the key is struck with greater than normal force. In another embodiment of the invention the pivot is eliminated and the hammer butt, and preferably also the shank, is made integral with the butt flange, the section between the butt flange and the hammer butt being thin to permit flexing and movement of the hammer toward and away from the sounding element.
