ABSTRACT:
A combination support stand and support rack for a heavy and cumbersome musical instrument, such as a Sousaphone or a tuba. The rack is adjustable arcuately, vertically and laterally to hold the instrument in playing position, and is especially desirable for use by children who are learning to play such instruments, but who are physically unable to handle them.
Provision is made to maintain both the stand and the rack in adjusted position so it may be brought back to the same position without further adjustment, when the player leaves the instrument and then returns to resume playing. A counterbalanced parallelogram mechanism provides means by which the instrument is easily raised with a minimum of effort while the player is seated, so that the rack may be moved out of the way when the player wishes to leave the seated, playing position, and is easily returned so the rack and the instrument will be in the same adjusted position, when the player returns to the seated, playing position.
