Abstract
An installation structure for a high hat cymbal having upper and lower cymbals which are held compressed against each other. A respective elastic member is disposed above the upper cymbal and below the lower cymbal. A pressure applying device applies differential pressure on the elastic member of the upper cymbal for adjusting the compression of the cymbals together. The pressure applying device includes a pivotable plate having edge regions at different radii from the transverse pivot axis of the plate, and a functional member that is pressed upon by the selected edge region of the pivotable plate selectively adjusts the force applied to the elastic members. The various members holding the cymbals, the elastic members and the pressure applying device on the installation rod are disclosed.
