Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of musical instrument technology, and in particular to a cymbal modification for a silent cymbal. Background Technology

[0002] A cymbal is a musical instrument, typically referring to the cymbals in a drum kit. It's an essential weapon for every drummer, and cymbals are mostly made of a copper-based alloy. When drummers practice, the surrounding environment often needs to be quiet, and purchasing silent cymbals is expensive. Numerous acoustic drum training sessions both domestically and internationally cause noise pollution, affecting social harmony. Therefore, a cymbal modification to a silent cymbal is designed. During training, the cymbals are modified to be silent, ensuring training effectiveness while reducing operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects or deficiencies in the existing technology, it is desirable to provide a cymbal modification to a silent cymbal, which modifies the copper alloy cymbal to avoid making too loud noise during training and affecting others, thus ensuring training effectiveness while reducing the cost of use.

[0004] This utility model provides a modified cymbal for a silent cymbal, comprising:

[0005] The cymbals are made of copper alloy.

[0006] The cymbals are coated with rubber and can be detachably fitted onto the cymbals.

[0007] The membrane switch assembly is fixedly disposed within the encapsulation and attached to the top surface of the cymbal.

[0008] Furthermore, the coating includes a semi-coating body covering a portion of the top surface of the cymbal, the semi-coating body being integrally formed with a cymbal cap coating body covering the cymbal cap, the semi-coating body being integrally formed with a flange, the flange being detachably fitted onto the outer peripheral edge of the cymbal.

[0009] Furthermore, the coating includes a full coating that completely covers the top surface of the cymbal, and the full coating is integrally formed with a flange that is detachably fitted onto the outer peripheral edge of the cymbal.

[0010] Furthermore, the coating is made of silicone material.

[0011] Furthermore, the adhesive coating has through holes corresponding to the mounting holes of the cymbals.

[0012] Furthermore, the membrane switch assembly includes a cymbal cap switch, a side tone switch, and an interface plate. The cymbal cap switch is fixedly disposed within the rubber coating, covering the top of the cymbal cap. The side tone switch is fixedly disposed within the flange, covering the top of the outer peripheral edge of the cymbal. The bottom of the flange is located below the cymbal and is integrally connected to a storage box. The interface plate is placed inside the storage box and is electrically connected to the cymbal cap switch and the side tone switch, respectively.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention modifies a copper alloy cymbal by attaching a membrane switch assembly to the cymbal, thus creating a silent cymbal. This prevents excessive noise during training from disturbing others, ensuring training effectiveness while reducing operating costs.

[0015] Acoustic drum kits are generally expensive and have a monotonous sound, so buying an extra set is not cost-effective. Replacing silent cymbals with electronic cymbals not only reduces noise but also provides a richer sound and a wider range of tracks, making the originally monotonous acoustic drum kit more fun. It also features Bluetooth connectivity and lossless recording, plus an amplifier and speakers, allowing for flexible control and greatly increasing the applicability of the equipment.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0029] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other. The present utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-6 An embodiment of this utility model provides a modified cymbal for a silent cymbal, comprising:

[0031] Cymbal 1 is made of copper alloy material;

[0032] 2. The PVC coating is detachably fitted onto the cymbal 1.

[0033] The membrane switch assembly 3 is fixedly installed inside the adhesive 2 and attached to the top surface of the cymbal 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, the drummer uses a conventional brass alloy cymbal 1 when performing. When training in an environment where it is impossible to produce a loud sound, the cymbal 1 is modified by attaching a rubber coating 2 with a membrane switch assembly 3 to the cymbal 1. The installation is very convenient, and it can be transformed into a silent cymbal, avoiding the sound of too much noise during training and affecting others. This ensures the training effect while reducing the cost of use.

[0035] Furthermore, users who already own acoustic drum kits can modify their inserts to mute cymbals to experience different playing styles. Acoustic drum kits are generally quite expensive and have a monotonous sound, so buying an additional drum kit is not cost-effective. Converting mute cymbals to electronic cymbals not only reduces noise but also allows for a richer range of sounds and tracks, making the originally monotonous acoustic drum kit more fun. This includes Bluetooth connectivity and lossless recording, as well as the ability to add amplifiers and speakers, greatly increasing the applicability of the device.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the coating 2 includes a semi-coating body 21 covering a portion of the top surface of the cymbal 1, and a cymbal cap coating body 22 covering the cymbal cap 11 integrally formed. The semi-coating body 21 is integrally connected with a flange 23, and the flange 23 is detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the cymbal 1.

[0037] Alternatively, the coating 2 includes a fully coated body 24 that fully covers the top surface of the cymbal 1. The fully coated body 24 is integrally formed and connected with a flange 23. The flange 23 is detachably fitted onto the outer periphery of the cymbal 1.

[0038] In this embodiment, the drummer usually only hits half of the cymbals 1 when playing, so the rubber coating 2 can be either half-coated or fully-coated to meet the preferences of different users.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the coating 2 is made of silicone material, which can effectively absorb the vibration of the cymbals 1, greatly reduce the volume, and avoid disturbing the neighbors.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the rubber coating 2 has a through hole 25 corresponding to the mounting hole 12 of the cymbal 11 to avoid affecting the installation of the cymbal 11.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the membrane switch assembly 3 includes a cymbal switch 31, a side tone switch 32, and an interface plate 33. The cymbal switch 31 is fixedly disposed inside the rubber coating 2 and covers the top of the cymbal 11. The side tone switch 32 is fixedly disposed inside the flange 23 and covers the top of the outer peripheral edge of the top surface of the cymbal 1. The bottom of the flange 23 is located below the cymbal 1 and is integrally connected to a storage box 26. The interface plate 33 is placed inside the storage box 26 and is electrically connected to the cymbal switch 31 and the side tone switch 32 respectively.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the user is training, when the drumstick hits the rubber coating 2, the cymbal cap switch 31 and the side tone switch 32 are struck, which is converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the sound source via the interface board 33. This realizes the transformation of the conventional cymbal 1 into a silent cymbal, ensuring the training effect while reducing the cost of use.
