Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of timpani technology, and in particular to a timpani with a stable structure. Background Technology
[0002] A timpani is a percussion instrument. It consists of a drumhead, a drum body, and drumsticks. The timpani is a cornerstone of a wind band or symphony orchestra. A typical timpani has its body connected to a base via a vertical support rod, with a pitch adjustment mechanism between the base and the drum body. Because it only has a vertical support, its structural stability is insufficient. With prolonged use and frequent moving, the pitch adjustment mechanism can be affected, leading to inaccurate tuning and compromising the structural safety of the timpani itself. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects or deficiencies in the prior art, it is desirable to provide a timpani with a stable structure, which consists of a vertical support rod and a horizontal connecting rod to form a support structure, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the timpani.
[0004] This utility model provides a structurally stable timpani, including a base, a drum body, support rods, and connecting rods; the drum body is disposed above the base; several vertical support rods are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the drum body and the base;
[0005] The connecting rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drum body. The connecting rods are horizontally arranged between two adjacent support rods. Connecting members are fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting rods. The outline of the connecting member matches the outline of the corresponding support rod. The connecting member has a through hole, and the support rod corresponding to the connecting member has a threaded hole. A first screw passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected to the corresponding threaded hole. Positioning blocks are fixedly arranged on the support rods on both sides of the connecting rod. The positioning blocks are located close to each other below the connecting member.
[0006] Furthermore, the base, support rod, connecting rod, and connector are all made of aluminum alloy.
[0007] Furthermore, a first leg is fixedly connected to one side of the base, and a roller is installed at the bottom of the first leg; two second legs are fixedly connected to the other side of the base, and self-locking casters are installed at the bottom of the second legs; the roller and the two self-locking casters are distributed in an isosceles triangle.
[0008] Furthermore, the bottom end of the support rod is fixedly connected to the base by a second screw, and the top end is fixedly connected to the drum body by a third screw.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] The timpani of this invention is provided with a base, a drum body, a support rod, and a connecting rod. The connecting rod is fixedly connected to the support rod through a connector. The vertical support rod and the horizontal connecting rod constitute the support structure of the timpani. The structure is stable and avoids the problem of the pitch adjustment structure being affected by deformation, thus improving the safety of the timpani structure.
