ABSTRACT:
A percussion instrument mounting apparatus for mounting a second pair of cymbals or the like to a stand used for supporting and actuating a first pair of cymbals. Frame means connectible to the upper end portion of an upstanding tube assembly of the stand includes a lower spider element slidably encircling and fixedly connectable to the tube assembly, and also a three arm upper spider element superposed in coaxial alignment with the lower spider element. Each arm means includes (a) a lower arm pivotally connected at one end to the lower spider element and with a free end extending upwardly and radially outwardly from the lower spider element, and (b) an upper arm pivotally connected at one end to the upper spider element and with a free end extending downwardly and radially outwardly from said upper spider element. The upper and lower arms are pivotally connected together at a location intermediate the ends of both arms. Furthermore, the upper and lower arms are maintained in position to both span the first or lower cymbal pair and to support the lower cymbal of the second or upper cymbal pair by securing means located in the free end portions of the upper and lower arm. An extension rod is added to the pull rod of the existing stand to enable said lengthened pull rod to extend upwardly through the center of the upper spider means to support the upper cymbal of the second or upper cymbal pair.
