Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cymbal preparation, and in particular to a cymbal striking device. Background Art

[0002] Acoustic cymbals are percussion instruments, typically referring to the cymbals in jazz drum sets, and are essential instruments for every drummer. Traditional cymbals are categorized into three types: purely machined, semi-machined, and entirely handcrafted. These traditional cymbals are typically made from copper-based alloys.

[0003] Cymbals can be categorized into various types, including hi-hats, crash cymbals, and ride cymbals. Regardless of the type, the sound-producing principle is similar. The player strikes the cymbal with a striking object like a drumstick, causing it to vibrate. This in turn causes the surrounding air to vibrate, producing the audible sound.

[0004] After the cymbals are prepared and formed, their surfaces need to be dotted. In the existing technology, the cymbals are generally dotted manually, which has low work efficiency and high labor intensity. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a dotting device specifically for dotting drum cymbals. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, so once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0051] Example 1:

[0052] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present invention discloses a cymbal striking device, comprising a supporting base 1, and further comprising:

[0053] Several cymbal clamping mechanisms are installed on the inner side of the support base 1;

[0054] A cymbal striking mechanism is located between two adjacent cymbal clamping mechanisms;

[0055] The cymbal drive structure is fixedly installed at the lower end of the cymbal clamping mechanism;

[0056] The two ends of the cymbal striking mechanism are fixedly mounted on the upper end surface of the support base 1 .

[0057] By adopting the above technical solution, the cymbal clamping mechanism, the cymbal striking mechanism and the cymbal driving mechanism cooperate with each other, so that multiple cymbals can be automatically struck at one time, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the cymbals and reducing the intensity of manual labor.

[0058] Example 2:

[0059] This embodiment provides a cymbal striking device, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0060] Furthermore, the support base 1 includes:

[0067] Furthermore, the cymbal clamping mechanism includes:

[0068] Support plate A2, located between support base A101 and support base B102;

[0069] There are two rotating seats 201, which are rotatably connected to both sides of the upper end of the support plate A2. The lower end of the rotating seat 201 passes through the lower end surface of the support plate A2 and is fixedly connected to the transmission gear;

[0070] The cymbal drive structure includes:

[0100] By adopting the above technical solution, when the dotting position needs to be adjusted, the hydraulic rod B extends or retracts to drive the rack to rise or fall. Since the rack meshes with the gear part A, the gear shaft is driven by the rack to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, and then the dotting cylinder A and the dotting cylinder B are pushed out or pulled back through the transmission structure, so that the dotting cylinders on both sides of the accommodating box can adjust the dotting positions of two adjacent cymbals between the two cymbal clamping mechanisms. The structure is simple and easy to use.
