Abstract:
1. A positioning device for a cymbal comprising: a bracket having a clamp mounted movably on the bracket and having a cymbal supporting assembly mounted pivotally between the stationary clamping member of the bracket and the movable clamping member of the clamp and having two friction pads being annular and resilient, one of the friction pads mounted between the stationary clamping member and one side of the friction wheel, and the other friction pad mounted between the movable clamping member and the other side of the friction wheel, the friction pads selectively pressing respectively against the sides of the friction wheel of the cymbal supporting assembly and each friction pad having an annular inner beveled surface pressing against one of the annular outer beveled surfaces of the friction wheel; and a primary adjusting assembly is mounted through the stationary clamping member, the movable clamping member, the friction wheel and the friction pads and selectively pressing the stationary clamping member, the movable clamping member and the friction pads towards the friction wheel to securely hold the friction wheel.
