BASS-DRUM AND CIYMBAL nnarnn.
To all whom/it may concern:
Be it known'that'I, FRED'D. WILLIAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing vat Ogden, in the'county of 'Weber and State of Utah, have invented a new and useful Bass-Drum and Cymbal Beater, of which bea'ter for use in connection with the cymbal, it being possibleto-=use this cymbal beater so as to strike a eymballocated at either side of the drum or to entirely miss the'cymbalif preferred. 5
Another 0b]ect is to provide a beater which can be collapsed into a" compact bundle so as to be conveniently carried.
A still further object is to provide simple and efiicient means for properly holding in position a crashcymbal and also for holdin the drum against shifting while-in use.
' ith the foregoingand other objects in view which will appear asthe description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of-parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it beingunderstood that changes in the precise' embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, can be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of theinventionhasbeen shown. In saiddrawingsz g Figure 1 is aside elevation of the beat- "ing apparatus constituting the present: in-

Application filed January 27, 1917. Serial No. 144,921.
'2 is a front elevation ofthe apparatus. i
-Fi'g.-3;i's an enlargedsectionthrough the bearing of the 'drum beater. 1
Fig. 4is a perspective view of one of the drum holding spurs. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the cymbal holder. p
Fig; 6 is a perspectiveview of the holder used in connection with the crash cymbal. -Beferring to the figures by characters of reference '1 designates a bass drum to the counter hoop 2 of which are to be connected hold'ingspurs,'one of which has been illus- 'trated in detail in Fig. 4. Eachof these holding. spurs includes a'tubular member 3 having a book 4 at one end and having a depending pointed element 5. Within the tubular member is slidably mounted a shank 6 having a hook 7 at one end, while-its other end is screw, threaded and is engaged by a long wing bolt 8. The hook 7'is adapted'to be" laced back of-the flesh hoop while the hoo 1 is adapted to be placed in engagement with the front edge of the counter hoop. The two hooks are then adjusted toward each other by means of the wing bolt 8. The'holding spurs are designed to be secured to opposite sides of the lowermost portion of the counter hoop so that the ends of the pointed members 5 will bite into the floor or otherstructure on which the drum is mounted,so as to hold the drum against shifting out of any position to which it may be set.
A device such as shown in Fig. 6 is adapted to besecured to the flesh;*hoop and counter lhoop near thetop thereof for the purpose of supporting a crash cymbal. This devicein'cludes atubular member 9 having a hook 10 at one end and also having a boss 11 on which is arranged a threadflesh {hoop and counter 'hoop and to tightly engage the same, after which the crash cymbal is placed on the stem 12 and fastened thereto by the wing nut 13.
For the purpose of attaching a small cymbal to either side of the drum, an attachment such as illustrated in Fig. 5 is used. This attachment includes a tubular member 17 having a hook 18 at one end from which extends an arm 19. A threaded stem 20 extends at right angles from this arm and is provided with a wing nut 21. A stem 22 is slidably mounted within the member 17 and is provided at one end with a hook 23 while its other end is engaged by a thumb screw rod or bolt 24. The hooks 18 and 23 are adapted to be placed in engagement with opposite edges of the flesh hoop and counter hoop and to be ti htened therea ainst by the thumb rod or bolt 24:. The cymbal which has been indicated at 25 is to be placed in engagement with the stem 20 and to be fastened thereto by the wing nut 21. Obviously this cymbal 25 can be secured to either side portion of the drum as may be most convenient.
The means for beating the drum and the cymbal 25 has been shown in detail in Figs. 1, 2 and 3. The heater attachment includes a base plate 26 to one side of which is attached a standard 27 having a spindle 28 projecting laterally from the upper end thereof. On this spindle is mounted a hub .29 the ends of which are recessed as at 30 to provide seats for ball bearings 31 engaging cones projecting into the recesses. The hub is fastened to the spindle by a nut 33 or the like, said nut being housed by a cap 34 which serves to exclude dust and dirt and also to prevent the lubricant from escaping from the bearing.
Projecting from the hub is an arm 36 having an eye 37 at its free end into which projects a set screw 38. A tubular stem 39 is adjustably mounted on the eye and is engaged'by the set screw, while adjustably mounted in this tubular stem is a rod 40 adapted to be held against longitudinal movement by a set screw 41, The ball 42 of the beater is attached to this rod.
An eye screw 43 engages one end of the tubular stem 39 and carries a ring -14.
An arm 45 extends from the hub 29 and is engaged by one end of a coiled spring 46, the other end of this spring being attached to a bolt 47 which is adjustably mounted in a stud 48 outstanding from the standard 27. A nut 49 engages the bolt and by means thereof said bolt can be adjusted longitudinally to vary the tension of the spring 16.
Adjustably mounted on the tubular stem 39 is an arm 50 adapted to be held in place by a set screw 51. This arm has a spring extension 51 on which is mounted a ball constituting means for engaging the cymbal 25. Obviously the arm 50 with its extension 51 can be inverted and replaced on the stem 39 so to adapt it for use in connection with a cymbal mounted at the other side of the drum.
Extending from the base plate 26 is a rod 53 the outer end of which is bent laterally to form a pintlc 54 engaging a heel plate 55. This pintle also engages one end of a pedal 56 the other end of which is ad- ,justably connected by a strap 57 to the ring 44;.
The upper surface of the plate 56 may be roughened or may be provided with a covering of felt or the like. Extending upwardly from the plate is a threaded stem 58 which extends loosely through a clamp ing plate 59 bearing at one end on the plate 26. A wing nut 60 is mounted on thesteiu 58 and can be turned in one direction to cause the clamping plate 59 to bind the counter hoop onto the base plate 26, thus to hold the bearing mechanism fixed relative to the drum head.
It has been found in practice that a heating apparatus such as herein described is advantageous becauseit permits the ball 42 to hit the drum head at the center and it also allows the cymbal to be placed at either side of the drum, as may be found most convenient. By adjusting the arm 50 upwardly along the stem 39 it can be caused to entirely miss the cymbal. By utilizing the ball bearings in the hub 29, a quick rebound of the beater will take place and no difliculty will be experienced in using the drum while music is being played at the fastest tempo. The various adjustments which can be made are of importance. For example, stem 39 can be adjusted longitudinally within the eye 37, thus to increase or diminish the force, of the stroke and the rod 40 can be adjusted longitudinally within the stem 39 to adapt the beater to drums of various sizes. The tension of the spring 16 can be varied to suit the performer. lVhen the apparatus is not in use it can be readily folded up into a small package which can be conveniently carried.
. WVhat, is claimed is':- a I 1. An apparatus of the class described including a base plate, a standard thereon, a spring restrained beater mounted uponand adapted to swing relative to the standard, means cooperating with the base plate for gripping the counter hoop of a drum, a rod extending from one end of the base plate and having its outer'end bent laterally to form a pintle, a heel plate pivotally mounted on the pintle, a pedal pivotally mounted on said pintle and overhanging the rod, and a connection, between the pedal and the beater. H i .1 a j 2. A11 apparatus of the class described ineluding a base plate, means cooperating therewith for gripping the counter hoop of a drum, a rod extending from the base plate and having one end bent laterally to'form a pintle, a heel plate pivotally mounted on the pintle, a pedal pivotally mounted on said pintle and normally overhanging the rod, said heel plate and pedal being adapted to fold together and onto the rod, :1
10 standard on the base plate, a beater adjustable in the direction of its length and pivotally and adjustably connected to the standard, a connection between the pedal and one end of the beater, and yielding means connecting the heater to the standard.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I'have hereto afiixed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
