铜钟的形状构造是怎样的

铜钟早在原始社会，作为礼器的钟就出现了。当时的钟或以木制，或以竹制，或以陶制，是一种简单的打击乐器。随着青铜文化的开始，在商周时期出现了青铜钟。

As early as in primitive society, bronze bells appeared as ritual vessels. At that time, the clock was made of wood, bamboo or pottery. It was a simple percussion instrument. With the beginning of bronze culture, bronze bells appeared in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

钟有特钟和编钟之别，特别人的钟叫特钟，能单独的悬在架上。成组依大小次序悬在一个架上的是编钟，大小和它的高低音有关系，有的十六个为一组。现存的钟有西周初期以至春秋战国时期的，战国较盛行。钟用木槌敲击演奏，考古发现的编钟，有槌同时出土。

There are special clocks and chimes. Special people's clocks are called special clocks, which can be hung on the rack alone. Hanging on a shelf in groups in order of size is the chime bell. Its size is related to its high and low tones. Some 16 are in a group. The existing clocks are from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the spring and Autumn Warring States period, which is more popular in the Warring States period. The bell is played with a wooden mallet. The chime bell found in archaeology was unearthed at the same time.

形制:钟的形制有两种，一种是带高的筒形纽，钟的下口两边突出如月牙形；另一种上端的纽是扁的，有的纽作伏兽形，钟下口是平的。

Shape: there are two kinds of shapes of the clock. One is a cylindrical button with height, and both sides of the lower mouth of the clock protrude like a crescent; Another kind of button at the top is flat. Some buttons are in the shape of an animal, and the lower mouth of the clock is flat.

花纹:一般钟的花纹两边相同，每边大率有六排（每排三个）共十八个突出的乳。乳的形状有突出如柱的，有突出作螺旋形的。有“乳”的点缀，是铜钟区别于钲、饶、铎、铃等的特点。

Pattern: generally, the pattern of the clock is the same on both sides, and there are six rows (three in each row) with a total of 18 prominent breasts on each side. The shape of the milk protrudes like a column or spirals. The embellishment of "milk" is the characteristic that the clock is different from Zheng, Rao, duo, bell, etc.
