Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0245070A2] The invention relates to a device for securing the single reed (2) on the mouthpiece (1) of a wind instrument, for example a clarinet or a saxophone, by which a substantially even pressure on the surface (2') of the single reed (2) and thus on the support surface (8') of the mouthpiece (2) can be achieved. The securing device comprises a ligature (3) that is placed around the mouthpiece (1) and the single reed (2), and a ligature screw (4) with a right-hand or left-hand thread (6, 7) engaging with the threads of a bolt (15, 15') that extends through the eyes (14, 14') of the ligature (3). The single reed (2) can be easily and securely fastened or unfastened on the mouthpiece of the musical instrument by turning the ligature screw (4).
