Abstract: A musical instrument display stand includes a base rod, connecting assemblies, abutting posts and arm assemblies. The base rod has a top, a left end and right end, and the connecting assemblies are rotatably mounted on the top of the base rod. Each abutting post and arm assembly is respectively and pivotally mounted in each connecting assembly to hold a musical instrument for display and can be folded in the same direction to reduce the volume of the stand to save space for storage. Each connecting assembly can be turned to accommodate a specific angle of displaying and viewing the musical instruments. Consequently, the musical instrument display stand is suitable for display musical instruments and can be conveniently stored.

Abstract: A quick-release device is used for a music support stand composed of a vertical rod and a boom rod. The quick-release device consists of a body, a locking block and a lever. The body has a head, a rod socket and a locking cavity. The head is adapted to attach to the boom rod of a music support stand. The rod socket is formed under the head to receive the vertical rod. The locking cavity is formed on the rod socket and has an inner space to communicate with an inner hole in the rod socket. The locking block is movably mounted inside the locking cavity, and the lever is pivotally attached to the body to press the locking block against the vertical rod or to release the locking block. The music support stand can be quickly attached or detached in an easy way.

Abstract: An adjusting device used for a stand with a base and an equipment stand is composed of a three-part telescoping post, a primary actuator, a secondary actuator, a driving device and at least one cable. The driving device is mounted in the primary actuator and directly raises or lowers one part of the three-part telescoping post. Each cable is securely attached to two parts of the three-part telescoping post and reeves over and around guide rollers mounted in the secondary actuator so the inner post is raised or lowered simultaneously with the middle post to increase the speed and stability of adjusting the stand.

Abstract: A telescopic tube has an outer tube having a notched post securely mounted inside the outer tube, an inner tube selectively and movably received in the outer tube, a seat securely connected to a distal end of the inner tube and having a spring extendably received in the seat and a connector detachably connected to a distal end of the seat to adapt to connect to a musical device, a handle pivotally connected to the seat to force the spring to extend, and a securing device securely connected to a distal end of the spring and being movable relative to the inner tube to selectively clamp the notched post. A relative position of the inner tube to the outer tube is able to be adjusted by the pivotal movement of the handle.

Abstract: A tripod includes a body, three legs, a connecting bracket and a post. The body has a top surface, and the connecting bracket is attached to the top surface of the body. The post has a top end and a bottom end, and the bottom end of the post is pivotally attached to the connecting bracket. The three legs are attached horizontally to the body. Two of the legs are pivotally attached to the body such that the legs can be pivoted away from each other within an angular displacement. Consequently, the tripod will stand firmly on the ground to support an object such as a sheet music holder.

Abstract: A shock-absorbing device for a microphone stand has a chamber (10), a cover (12) mounted on the chamber (10) and a central rod (13) mounted inside the chamber (10). The chamber (10) has multiple hooks (101) formed on the wall of the chamber and multiple resilient rings (11) around the central rod (13) and hooks (101) to suspend the central rod (13) inside the chamber and provide an excellent shock absorbing capability to the microphone stand.

Abstract: An elevating device includes a casing with an upper opening defined to allow the upper tube to extend into the casing and a lower opening defined to communicate with the upper opening and allow the lower tube to extend into the casing, a worm gear rotatably received in the casing to mesh the rack of the upper tube, and a worm shaft extending into the casing to mesh the worm gear so as to drive the movement of the upper tube relative to the lower tube.

Abstract: A two-legged cymbal support for a cymbal assembly includes two legs, two connecting ribs and two clamping devices. First distal ends of the two legs are pivotally connected to one of the clamping devices and second distal ends of the two legs are supported on the ground. First distal ends of the two connecting ribs are pivotally connected to the other one of the two clamping devices and second distal ends of the two connecting ribs are pivotally connected to the two legs. Each clamping device has a first arcuate recess and a second arcuate recess complimentarily corresponding to the first arcuate recess such that when the first and second arcuate recesses are combined to form a circular space, the pole of the cymbal assembly is clamped therebetween. When the first and second arcuate recesses are separate, the pole is easily removed.

Abstract: A folding arm mounted on a column of a musical instrument stand has a seat mounted on the column. The seat has a ring. A tube is perpendicular to the column and extending outwards from the ring. A passage is longitudinally defined in the tube. A slot is longitudinally defined through a front end of the tube. An elbow has a rear part pivotally mounted in the slot by a pivot pin. Two movable pieces are received in the passage and pushed by the rear part to tightly abut the column when the elbow is perpendicular to the column. A bar is mounted on a front part of the elbow. Whereby, when the elbow is perpendicular to the column, the arm is secured on the column. When the elbow is pivoted to a position parallel to the column, the arm is movable for adjusting the support height of the stand.
