Abstract: A musical rhythm instrument comprising a hand-held hollow body having at least one opening and a plurality of particles in the interior of the hollow body, which, when the hollow body is moved rhythmically, impact upon its inner wall and create a sound, is provided with a hollow body incorporating a plurality of openings distributed over its surface and has a basic shape such that it can be largely encompassed by a hand that is holding it.

Abstract: In a percussion instrument such as a drum, conga, bongo or the like, comprising a resonance body and a skin that is stretched over a top opening of the resonance body and has an imprint, it is provided that the skin (3) is transparent or semi-transparent and that an imprint (18) is applied to the bottom of the skin.

Abstract: In a conga stand comprising a holding ring for insertion of the conga or the like, also holding projections resting laterally against the conga, as well as legs connected to the holding ring, each leg being implemented height-adjustable in such a way that it consists of at least two sections that are curved or angled about their longitudinal direction so that they are displaceable relative to each other in a telescopic manner, wherein each section has a plurality of bores in the longitudinal direction, and wherein locking screws are provided that extend through two bores in each case while setting a specified length, wherein the lower bore in each case is implemented as a threaded bore, or the screws extend through the bores in such a way that a lock nut can be placed on the inner end, provision is made for the bores of at least one section to be connected by a longitudinal slot, the width of which corresponds approximately to the diameter of the threaded section of the screws.

Abstract: A conga stand comprises legs with joined-on holding pieces for insertion of a conga; a holding ring, on which the legs are mounted and which has lateral edges; an aperture in each leg for it to be fixed to the holding ring; apertures in the holding ring for the legs to be fixed to the holding ring; and fixing screws, which pass through the apertures of the holding ring and the leg, each fixing screw having a nut for the legs to be fixed to the holding ring. With a view to simple assembly and disassembly of the conga stand accompanied with excellent stableness on the ground and the possibility of use for congas of varying size, it is provided that the apertures of the holding ring are open towards the lateral edges thereof for insertion of the fixing screws from a lateral edge of the holding ring.
