cricothyroid
These are the vocal fold lengtheners.
They pull the thyroid cartilage down and forward, which increases the distance between the arytenoids and the thyroid notch which is often reffered to as the Adam's Apple.
This allows lengthening and tightening the vocal folds which causes them to vibrate faster, thus raising pitch.
