What 𮆔 means

They place the rack in funerals and temple music.

The Book of Rites (礼记), a classical Chinese ritual handbook, uses the related term 簨虡 in a funeral passage: bells and stone chimes are present, but the rack is deliberately absent. They are symbolic burial furnishings, not a playable set.

A court manual from China's Tang dynasty, the Kaiyuan Rites (大唐開元禮), uses 𮆔 in instructions for arranging temple music. The setting shifts from burial to ceremony; the character remains tied to the instrument rack.

Why does 𮆔 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
