A tripod stand on an equatorial mount

Abstract

The invention discloses a tripod of an equatorial telescope. The tripod comprises a connection base and three support legs, wherein a connection pillar is formed in the end of the top surface of the connection base; three articulation support lugs are formed in the side wall of the connection base; each support leg comprises an outer support pipe; a connection joint is formed in the upper end of each outer support pipe; an articulation support seat is formed in each connection joint; each articulation support seat is articulated with each articulation support lug through an articulation shaft;a guide groove is formed in the side wall of each outer support pipe; an inner support rod is inserted in each outer support pipe; the exterior of each outer support pipe is inserted and sleeved witha sliding sleeve; a conical pipe thread sleeve is formed in the lower end of each sliding sleeve; a plurality of cutting grooves are formed in each pipe thread sleeve and are used for cutting the pipe thread sleeve into a plurality of arc-shaped sheets; each pipe thread sleeve is screwed with a locking sleeve; each sliding groove is inserted with a connection rod; one end of each connection rod passes through each guide groove of each outer support pipe and is fixed in each inner support rod. According to the tripod of the equatorial telescope, the support leg structure of the tripod is improved, so that the constraint of folding the support legs is facilitated; meanwhile, a tripod tray can be conveniently placed on the tripod after the support legs are unfolded.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical instrument accessories, in particular to a tripod stand on an equatorial mount. Background technique: [0002] Equatorial mounts are made to improve the shortcomings of horizon-level devices. Its main purpose is to overcome the influence of the earth's rotation on stargazing. A set of standard astronomical telescopes often consists of telescopes, equatorial mounts, tripods and other components. The tripod of the existing equatorial mount is generally a tripod, and the existing tripod is generally composed of telescopic and adjustable legs to facilitate the carrying of the tripod, but when the legs of the tripod are folded, there is no corresponding restraint structure to limit the movement of the legs The feet cannot be swiveled. Invention content: [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiencies of the prior art, and provide a tripod bracket on the equatorial mou...
