By the way, when used in an orchestra, when playing a piece of music, the performer may switch to another percussion instrument such as a triangle as well as the castanets.
In such a case, it is necessary to release the fixation of the string to the finger according to the performance of the music and quickly play another instrument, but each time the string is fixed to the finger. This is very complicated, and when switching from another instrument to a castanet during a performance, the work of forming a pair of contact pieces open and wrapping the string around the finger is In some cases, the performance may not be in time.

In addition, even when the castanets are fixed to the thumb with a string, the string gradually loosens due to vibration, and the positions of the pair of contact pieces are displaced in the width direction, so that the pair of contact pieces are displaced. In some cases, the original sound may not be produced even when they come into contact with each other.
Therefore, conventionally, a pair of contact pieces can be maintained in an open state, and if necessary, it can be quickly switched to another instrument during performance to play, and the width of the contact pieces can be maintained. There has been a demand for an auxiliary tool that prevents misalignment in the direction.
