Patent attributes
A single unit that is used to support a cymbal on a stanchion and also secure the unit to the stanchion. The cymbal is supported between a pair of soft discs with a nut provided that can be tightened or loosened for the drummer to select how tight the cymbal is secured or how not so tight thereby varying the sound emitted from the cymbal when struck by a drumstick. The unit also has a slotted collet through which the mounting rod of the stanchion is conducted. The exterior surface of the collet is tapered which fits in a tapered cavity in a body. A nut is mounted by threads on the body and when turned on the body will cause the collet to press further into the tapered cavity which will cause the collet to tightly engage with the mounting rod.
