Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of musical instruments, and more specifically, to a djembe that facilitates the adjustment of the high-side drumhead. Background Art
[0002] The djembe is a representative musical instrument of the Manding culture in West Africa. Traditionally played by hand, it mainly has three tones: low, medium, and high, and can play drum tunes related to specific life scenes to accompany dancers and singers. The traditional djembe is made by hollowing out a whole tree trunk and covering it with sheepskin. The drumhead is fixed by evenly and densely connecting the drum ropes to the drumhead. The pitch is adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the drum ropes. The adjustment operation is relatively cumbersome and inconvenient to use. Moreover, if the force is not applied evenly, the situation of the drum skin being too tightly pulled on one side and damaged will occur, resulting in inaccurate pitch adjustment and affecting its use effect. Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure is studied and improved, and a djembe that facilitates the adjustment of the high-side drumhead is provided with the expectation of achieving a more practical value.

Embodiment
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , an African drum facilitating the adjustment of the high-top drumhead, comprising a drum cavity 1. A drumhead 2 is nested at the cavity opening position of the drum cavity 1. A drum pressing ring 3 is arranged on the outer periphery of the drum cavity 1. The drumhead 2 is fixed to the outer surface of the drum cavity 1 through the drum pressing ring 3. A plurality of fixing seats 4 are fixedly connected to the middle position of the outer periphery of the drum cavity 1. An adjusting screw 5 is threadedly connected to the top of the fixing seat 4. A hook 6 is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the adjusting screw 5. The end of the hook 6 is buckled on the top of the drum pressing ring 3 and presses the drum pressing ring 3 downward.
[0029] Refer to Figure 2 , the drumhead 2 is composed of a drum surface and a skirt. The drum surface of the drumhead 2 is closely attached to the cavity opening position of the drum cavity 1. The skirt of the drumhead 2 is closely attached to the outer surface of the drum cavity 1 and is fixed by pressing through the drum pressing ring 3.
[0030] Refer to Figure 2 , a plurality of fixing seats 4 are annularly and equidistantly distributed on the outer periphery of the drum cavity 1.
[0031] Refer to Figure 4 , the adjusting screw 5 includes a screw rod portion 501 threadedly connected to the top of the fixing seat 4. The top end of the screw rod portion 501 is fixedly connected with a square head portion 502.
[0032] Refer to Figure 4 , the hook 6 includes a hook seat 601. Two hook bends 602 are fixedly connected to the top of the hook seat 601. The hook bends 602 are buckled on the top of the drum pressing ring 3.
[0033] Refer to Figure 4 , the hook seat 601 is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw rod portion 501 and is located at the bottom of the square head portion 502.
[0034] During use: Nest the drumhead 2 at the opening of the drum cavity 1, then slip the drum pressing ring 3 over the outer circumference of the drum cavity 1, and press the skirt of the drumhead 2 against the outer surface of the drum cavity 1. Immediately afterwards, hook the hook 602 onto the top of the drum pressing ring 3, and then tighten the adjusting screw 5, causing the hook 6 to move downward and pressing down on the drum pressing ring 3, thereby firmly fixing the drumhead 2. When it is necessary to adjust the pitch of the drum, by adjusting the screw 5, the pressing force of the hook 6 on the drum pressing ring 3 is controlled. At this time, the tension of the drumhead surface of the drumhead 2 is also adjusted, and the pitch of the djembe changes with the change in the tension of the drumhead surface of the drumhead 2. The entire operation is convenient and fast, and the pitch adjustment is more accurate, greatly improving the usage effect.
