Abstract

Abstract An improved clamp structure for cymbal fixing comprises an externally threaded sleeve with a pivot hole for a pull lever to penetrate and extend. The threaded sleeve is provided in sequence from top to bottom with a clamp, two isolating pieces, two cotton blocks, and a fixing nut. An upper cymbal is to be place between the cotton blocks, and a base block beneath the clamp having a through hole is screw-jointed with the threaded sleeve for the pull lever to penetrate and extend. A fixed wing block and a movable wing block located on top of the base block are clamping at the pull lever with two corresponding valleys, so that the threaded sleeve and the upper cymbal can be positioned on the pull lever stably to move after the latter with excellent response.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 267 words
An improved clamp structure for cymbal fixing, comprising: an externally threaded sleeve having a penetrated pivot hole for a pull lever to penetrate and extend, said threaded sleeve being provided in sequence from top to bottom with a clamp, two isolating pieces, two cotton blocks, and a fixing nut, wherein: a base block is disposed beneath said clamp; a through hole in diameter corresponding with that of said pivot hole is formed in said base block for said pull lever to penetrate and extend; a lower portion of said through hole is broadened to form a tapped hole in a diameter corresponding with that of said threaded sleeve to enable an upper end of the latter to get locked; a fixed wing block in semi-arc is disposed on top edge of said base block; a vertically oriented valley is formed on inner face of said fixed wing block at a position corresponding with said through hole; one end of said fixed wing block is traverse perforated to create a through hole, while the other end allows a pin to penetrate vertically to interlock a movable wing block; a vertically oriented valley is formed on inner face of said movable wing block at a position corresponding with said valley of said fixed wing block; a hexagonal hole is provided to said movable wing block at a position corresponding with said through hole of said fixed wing block for a hexagonal bolt to penetrate and get locked with a hinge nut, so that those said valleys, will embrace each other to hold and clamp at said pull lever tightly.
