20120000344 | BEARING STRUCTURE FOR DRUM PEDAL - A drum pedal includes a base having a pair of posts, a shaft, a beater, a footboard, and a chain belt. A shaft is rotatably supported by the upper ends of the posts with bearings. One of the bearings is fixed to a first end portion of the shaft by fastening a screw to the shaft along the axial direction. The bearing fixed to the shaft is sandwiched by the cover and the post along the axial direction of the shaft. | 01-05-2012 |
20120118126 | TOM HOLDER - A tom holder has a holder body, a pivoting member supported pivotably with respect to the holder body, and a rod, which projects from the pivoting member with the tom fixed to the rod. The tom holder has a pair of openings located at opposed positions. The tom holder is configured to be usable in either a first mode, in which the rod projects from the first opening, and a second mode, in which the rod projects from the second opening. | 05-17-2012 |
20120210843 | MOUNTING STRUCTURE FOR CYMBALS, HI-HAT STAND, AND CLOSED HI-HAT ATTACHMENT - A hi-hat bottom supports a bottom cymbal, through which a rod is passed, from below in a state fixed to the upper end of an upper pipe via a retainer. The hi-hat bottom has the retainer, a receiving plate, a compression coil spring, and a lock nut. When a foot plate is depressed, the compression coil spring urges a top cymbal and a bottom cymbal in such a direction that the cymbals contact each other. When the foot plate is not depressed, the bottom cymbal is inclined, together with the receiving plate, at a predetermined inclination angle with respect to a horizontal plane by the urging force of the compression coil spring. | 08-23-2012 |
20140026734 | SPIKED LEG, MUSICAL INSTRUMENT, AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENT STAND - A spiked leg includes a first leg part and a second leg part, which are leg members, and a stopper fixed to a distal end of the second leg part. The stopper includes a stopper main body, a spike holder, and a spike. In the stopper main body, a part of the stopper main body is located between a first longitudinal hole and a second longitudinal hole. Due to this, the proximal end of the spike is arranged apart from a distal end of the second leg part when the second leg part and the spike are assembled onto the stopper. | 01-30-2014 |
20140026735 | DRUM SUPPORTING DEVICE AND DRUM - A tom-tom supporting device includes a bracket, a first arm having a plurality of first supporting portions for supporting an upper hoop, and a second arm having a second supporting portion for supporting a lower hoop. Two of the first supporting portions provided at ends of the first arm are each located near one of two intersection points at which a diameter of a batter head, which is perpendicular to a vertical plane containing an axis of a shell and an axis of the second arm, intersects the upper hoop. | 01-30-2014 |
20140026736 | DRUM MOUNTING DEVICE AND DRUM - A floor tom-tom is mounted on three floor tom-tom legs via three tom-tom mounting devices. Each tom-tom mounting device is composed of a memory lock and a floor tom-tom bracket located on the memory lock. The tom-tom mounting device is configured to be capable of fixing the floor tom-tom bracket to the memory lock. | 01-30-2014 |
20140026737 | TOM HOLDER - A tom holder has a holder body, a pivoting member supported pivotally with respect to the holder body, and a rod, which projects from the pivoting member with the tom fixed to the rod. The tom holder has a pair of openings located at opposed positions. The tom holder is configured to be usable in either a first mode, in which the rod projects from the first opening, and a second mode, in which the rod projects from the second opening. | 01-30-2014 |
20140090541 | BASS DRUM LIFTER AND BASS DRUM - A bass drum lifter is provided with a drum connection member, a pedal connection member including a lift portion, and a long screw for rotationally connecting the pedal connection member and the drum connection member to each other. The pedal connection member is rotational around the axis of the long screw between a storage position in the vicinity of a shell of a bass drum and a use position at which the bass drum is lifted up by the lift portion. The long screw is arranged in the vicinity of the shell and in the vicinity of the batter head. | 04-03-2014 |
