    Exchangeable pickup stand for string musical instrument
    The present invention relates to the music sector and, in particular, relates to an interchangeable pickup holder for string musical instruments, in particular electric string musical instruments, such as, for example, electric guitars, electric basses or electric violins .
    Electric string musical instrument pickups are transducers that convert the vibration of the strings of the musical instrument into an electrical signal. There are different types of pads depending on the physical principle by which the vibration of the strings is captured, the most common being electromagnetic pads. This type of pads comprises a winding that creates a magnetic field, so that the vibration of the ferromagnetic strings induces a current in the winding proportional to the amplitude of the movement and of frequency equal to that of the oscillation of the strings. These pickups, also called "pickup" in English, microphone or capsule, are usually arranged in a housing of the body of the musical instrument just below the strings. The arrangement of the pads in said housing of the body of the musical instrument is usually carried out with the help of a pickup support which usually comprises means for fixing to the housing of the string musical instrument. Said fixing means to the musical instrument are usually of the removable union type to allow the musical instrument tablet to be exchanged for another.
    By way of example, the Spanish Patent Application NQ 201630058 discloses an example of a tablet support in which the means for fixing the musical instrument consist of threaded elements. However, although the use of threaded elements turns out to be very reliable as mechanical fastening means, some time is required when exchanging a tablet support for another, mainly due to the unscrewing and threading stages of the elements. threaded Therefore, this type of detachable joint fixing means is not convenient when exchanging pickup holders, for example, during a musical performance.
    US Patent 6,111,184 discloses another example of a pickup support in which the fixing means to the musical instrument consist of spring ball positioners arranged in internal channels both in the pickup support and in the musical instrument. Thus, when the pickup holder is arranged in the housing of the musical instrument, the respective ball positioners are seated in the respective ball positioners arranged in the housing of the guitar instrument, so as to retain the pickup support in the housing of the musical instrument, as illustrated in Figure 3 of US Patent 6,111,184. In this case, the arrangement of the tablet holder in the corresponding housing of the musical instrument is carried out in a faster and more efficient way than in the case of using threaded elements (Spanish Patent Application NQ 201630058). However, the fixation by means of said ball positioners is less stable, in particular to the vibrations produced by the strings of the musical instrument. Additionally, both the placement and removal of the pill support must be carried out by pressure, which sometimes makes it difficult to place and quickly and efficiently remove the pill support by the musician during a performance, mainly due to lack of strength. .
    The present invention discloses an improved pickup support with more efficient means of fixing to the musical instrument and which aim to solve the mentioned problems of the pickup supports

    known. In particular, the present invention discloses a tablet holder with fixing means to the musical instrument that allow efficient and rapid placement and removal of the tablet holder while maintaining a stable fixation between the tablet holder and the instrument musical.
    In particular, the present invention discloses an exchangeable pickup holder for string musical instrument according to main claim 1. Said exchangeable pickup holder is of the type comprising at least one base body provided with fixing means to a musical instrument of string and support and fixing means of the tablet to said base body, characterized in that said fixing means of the base body to a string musical instrument comprise at least one movable pin element by means of actuating means integral to the pin element, whose The ends are configured to partially protrude through respective holes arranged in the external surface of said base body and be fixed to respective reception recesses arranged in the string musical instrument during a movement of said pin element by means of said actuating means, said base body comprising additional At least one retaining element of the pin element in its fixation with the string musical instrument.
    The support according to the present invention allows its placement and removal in a more efficient and faster way than in the prior art, while maintaining a stable fixation of the same support with respect to the musical instrument.
    According to a first embodiment of the present invention, the pin element preferably comprises two symmetrical ends configured to partially protrude through two respective holes arranged in the external surface of said base body.
    According to a second embodiment of the present invention, the pin element preferably comprises four symmetrical ends configured to partially protrude through four respective holes arranged in the outer surface of said base body.
    Preferably, the pin element is movable radially with respect to its midpoint.
    Preferably, the actuating means of the pin element consist of respective through holes arranged on either side of the midpoint of the surface of the pin element allowing the passing element to be maneuvered by the user's two fingers.
    Preferably, the retention element consists of two helical springs arranged vertically on the pin element by exerting pressure on said pin element against the base body.
    Preferably, the pin element is a flat element whose ends have a partially inclined termination. This configuration allows to reduce friction during the movement of the pin element when it is fixed with the string musical instrument.
    Additionally, said support preferably comprises means for regulating the position and inclination of the tablet with respect to the support.
