Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an adapter for attaching musical instruments to support the supporting legs of additional musical instruments on the supporting legs of musical instruments.

The set of bass drum and tom tom in a drum set is as shown in FIG. is held by a bracket 4 attached to the bass drum 1.

The bracket 4 is classified into a single type having one leg holding part and a twin type having two leg holding parts.If the bracket 4 is a twin type, it can be placed on the bass drum 1. Two tom-toms 2, 2 can be set as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, the tom-tom 2 set on the bass drum 1,
In addition to 2, if you want to add a tom-tom near it, or add a melody tom, cymbal, or music stand, you generally need to set up a separate stand on the floor behind or to the side of the bass drum and add it to it. The instruments are set up, but if you set up a separate stand like this, you have to prepare an extra stand, and the added instruments are far away, making it very difficult to play.

For this reason, recently, as shown in Figure 1, the bass drum
A tom holder 3 is held upright by a bracket 4,
An adapter 5 for adding musical instruments is attached to the lower legs 3a, 3a of 3, and this adapter 5 holds the supporting legs 6 of the additional musical instruments. In this way, if the supporting legs 6 of the additional musical instruments 7 are supported by the tom holders 3, 3 installed upright on the bass drum 1 using the adapter 5 for adding musical instruments, The additional musical instruments 7 can be set at a position where it is easy to play without erecting a separate stand.

However, the adapter 5 for adding chestnut instruments currently in use has two (or one) leg insertion holes in the flat adapter body into which the lower legs 3a of the tom holder 3 are inserted, and a hole for attaching the additional musical instruments 7. At least l leg insertion holes are provided through which the support legs 6 are inserted, and the legs inserted into each of the leg insertion holes are fixed with set screws, and the leg insertion holes are generally round holes. Because of this, it could not hold legs with a square cross section (support legs for musical instruments come in two types: circular cross sections and square cross sections), and it also had the disadvantage that it could not hold legs with different diameters.

This idea was created in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to prevent the legs from wobbling, whether the legs are round or square, and even when the diameters of the legs are different. To provide an adapter for attaching musical instruments that can be held securely without causing any damage.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the musical instrument attachment adapter of this invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 2 to 4, reference numeral 11 indicates a flat adapter body.

This adapter main body 11 has three projecting parts 11a, 11a extending radially from the center, and each projecting part 11a, 11a has an opening 12. 12 are provided.

Each of the openings 12.12 has a substantially rectangular shape in plan, and cutout steps 12a and 12b are formed on the upper and lower edges of both side surfaces of the openings 12.12, respectively, over the entire length of the openings. , 12 has a concave surface 13 in the shape of a plane V with an opening angle of approximately 90 degrees.

14. Reference numeral 14 denotes a leg pressing member provided in each of the openings 12, 12, and the leg pressing members 14, 14
is provided with protruding flanges 14a, 14a on the upper edges of both sides thereof, which slide on the upper notch steps 12a, 12a of the openings 12, 12, and these leg pressing members 14, 14 are attached to the openings 12. It is slidably supported between both sides of 12.

Note that 15 is a set screw 16 attached to the lower surface of the leg pressing member 14.
The retaining plate 15 is in sliding contact with the lower notch step portions 12b, 12b of the opening 12, and prevents the leg pressing member 14 from coming off upward.

Moreover, between the end surface of the opening 12.12 on the center side of the adapter body, that is, the V-shaped concave surface 13, and the leg pressing member 14,
The lower leg 3a of the tom holder 3 shown in FIG.
The leg 3a or 6 inserted into the leg insertion portion is pressed by a tightening screw 17 that comes into contact with the rear end surface of the leg.

Further, the tip end surface of the leg pressing member 14, that is, the leg pressing surface is
The V-shaped recessed surface 18 has an opening angle of approximately 90 degrees and is symmetrical to the V-shaped recessed surface 13 of the opening 12 .

Therefore, when the leg 3a or 6 inserted into the support leg insertion part is made of a round pipe or nine bars, this leg 3
As shown in FIG. By being pressed at a point, the double ■-shaped concave human face 13.1
It is supported and fixed in a strongly tightened state between 8 and 8.

According to this musical instrument attachment adapter, the leg 3
a or 6 between the V-shaped concave surface 13 of the opening 12 and the opening 1
2, the leg pressing member 14 is slidably provided in the V-shaped concave surface 18. It is possible to securely hold a leg 6a having a diameter as shown in FIG. 5, and also to securely hold a rectangular leg 6b as shown in FIG. can be held.

In other words, according to this musical instrument attachment adapter, the diameter of the opening 12 is smaller than the width (width between both sides), and the leg pressing member 1
If the diameter of the leg is larger than the diameter of the leg insertion part when 4 is moved to just before its sliding limit, the leg of any diameter, whether round or square, can be securely held without wobbling. be able to.

In addition, in this musical instrument attachment adapter, one of the three leg holding parts holds the lower leg 3a of the tom holder 3, and the other two leg holding parts hold the supporting legs of the additional musical instrument. It can be used not only as a tom holder placed upright on a bass drum, but also as a hi-hat cymbal stand to support additional musical instruments.

Further, although the above embodiments are shown as having three leg holders, it is sufficient if there are at least two or more leg holders.

Since the musical instrument attachment adapter of this invention is as described above, it can securely hold the legs without causing them to wobble, regardless of whether the legs are round or square, or if the diameters of the legs are different. be able to.
