Abstract
Abstract A kit is described particularly useful for mounting percussion instruments to a stand. The kit includes a plurality of mounting bars each formed with a plurality of apertures, and a plurality of like rods attachable to the bars for supporting various percussion instruments. Each rod includes an externally-threaded end which may be passed through the apertures in the mounting bars, the opposite end of the rods being formed with an internally-threaded axially-extending bore to receive the firstmentioned end of another like rod. Further included are bolts having threaded shanks receivable in the axially-extending bore of the rods, and nuts threadedly attachable to the externallythreaded ends of the rods. The foregoing elements may be assembled in many different arrangements to support cymbals, drums, temple blocks, cowbells, and other percussion instruments from a stand.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
A kit particularly useful for mounting various percussion instruments to a stand, comprising: at least one mounting bar formed with a plurality of apertures; and a plurality of rods attachable to the bar by passing them through selected apertures of the bar for supporting various percussion instruments, each of said rods including an externally-threaded end of a diameter to pass through the apertures in the mounting bar, the opposite end of each rod being formed with an internally threaded, axiallyextending bore of the same internal diameter as the externallythreaded end enabling two such rods to be threadedly attached together and to a mounting bar clamped between them, at least one of said rods further including a plastic sleeve lining a portion of its externally-threaded end, and a pair of non-metal apertured discs passing through said externally threaded end for clamping a cymbal between them, with the cymbal when so clamped being isolated from the rod by said plastic sleeve and the two nonmetal discs.
