This application claims the benefit of and takes priority from Chinese Patent Application No. 202311505395.6 filed on Nov. 10, 2023, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.
The present application relates to the technical field of musical instrument-related accessories, and more particularly to a multifunctional guitar stand.
During the use of a plucked string musical instrument such as a guitar, it is usually necessary to place the plucked string musical instrument on a stand. Also, during the playing of a musical instrument such as a guitar, it is necessary for a player to place his/her foot on a footstool to obtain an improved comfort of playing. A guitar stand and a guitar footstool are common accessories used in guitar playing. The existing guitar stand and footstool both have a single function, and cannot fulfill the functions both as a guitar stand and a guitar footstool. Furthermore, the existing guitar stand and guitar footstool are not easy to be stored and carried. To solve the problems described above, the present application proposes a new guitar stand used for placing a guitar and used as a footstool for guitar playing, which may be folded storage and is easy to carry.
A multifunctional guitar stand (hereinafter referred to as a guitar stand) is disclosed in the present utility model to solve the problems in the prior art that the guitar stand and the guitar footstool both have only a single function and have a large volume which is not easy to be stored and carried. Accordingly, a technical proposal is proposed in the present utility model as follows:
a rotary stopper, connected to the inner side of an end of each of the two small supporting arms, and allowed to be rotated with a crossbar connected to the end of each of the small supporting arms as the center of rotation;
a plurality of footstool grooves, disposed in a surface of the rotary stopper, allowing the guitar stand to be held in position in the case of the execution of the use of the guitar stand as a footstool;
a stand groove, disposed at an end of the rotary stopper, allowing the guitar stand to be held in position in the case of the execution of the use of the guitar stand as a guitar stand;
a first crossbar, configured for fixedly connecting to the inner side of an end of each of the two large supporting arms disposed near the ground to fix the connection of the two large supporting arms, allowed to be caught by the stand groove of the rotary stopper to hold the rotary stopper in position, resulting in the use of the guitar stand as a guitar stand and the support for the back surface of the guitar;
a second crossbar, configured for connecting the inner side of an end of each of the two large supporting arms disposed away from the ground to fix the connection of the two large supporting arms, allowed to be caught by one of the plurality of footstool grooves of the rotary stopper to hold the rotary stopper in position, resulting in the use of the guitar stand as a guitar footstool;
a third crossbar, fixedly connected to the inner side of an end of each of the two small supporting arms disposed near the ground to fix the connection of the two small supporting arms;
a fourth crossbar, fixedly connected to the inner side of an end of each of the two small supporting arms disposed away from the ground to fix the connection of the two small supporting arms, and allowed to combine the rotatory stopper and the small supporting arms together by passing through a stopper rotation hole of the rotatory stopper, and allowed to be the center of rotation for rotation of the rotatory stopper; and
a central bolt, disposed between the large supporting arms and the small supporting arms to combine the large supporting arms and the small supporting arms, and allowed to be the center of rotation for rotation of the large supporting arms and the small supporting arms.
1—large supporting arm; 2—small supporting arm; 3—rotary stopper; 4—footstool groove; 5—central bolt; 6—guitar protective rubber gasket; 7—stand groove; 8—first crossbar; 9—second crossbar; 10—third crossbar; 11—fourth crossbar; 12—footstool anti-sliding pad; 13—stopper rotation hole
