摘要：A musical instrument stand such as a hi-hat stand is basically constructed by apair of cymbals, a stand member, a foldable tripod containing three legs, a pedal frame,an operation rod, a return spring, a transmission member, a pedal, a heel and an

interconnection member. Normally, the return spring applies resilience to the operation

rod, a lower end of which is being pressed upwardly together with a front end of thepedal by means of the transmission member. In addition, the interconnection member isformed in a U-shape, in which a bent portion is fixed to the heel of the pedal while endsare detachably attached to feet of the pedal frame. For storage and transportation ofthe musical instrument stand, the ends of the interconnection member being elasticallydeformed are disconnected from the feet of the pedal frame. Herein, straight portions ofthe interconnection member are held by holders, which are U-shape channels projectingdownwardly from a back surface of the pedal. In addition, the pedal is lifted upwardlyand is hooked on the stand member such that a pedal holding member, which is ahexagon head bolt being attached to the stand member, is engaged with a hole at aback-end portion of the pedal. This prevents the pedal and interconnection memberfrom rotating and moving around when the musical instrument stand is transported.Thus, it is possible to improve transportability and portability of the musical instrumentstand.
