ABSTRACT:
In construction of a single valve unit for a brass musical instrument having blow-in and blow-out tubes, and multiple resonant tubes, rotation and axial displacement of a piston in a cylinder switches communication between the blow-in and blow-out tubes and the resonant tubes. Compared with prior art double valve units, the present signal valve unit simplifies valve construction, avoids the need for phase adjustment, between two valves and reduces fatigue on the operator.
