[0070] Currently, the side door panels of cars on the market are not completely vertical, and the exposed surfaces of the doors are generally curved. According to the different exterior designs of different vehicle models, there are different degrees of concavities and convexities on the surfaces of the doors. Therefore, after the vehicle camera is installed, it may be affected by the shape of the door, and its bullhead frame is also inclined as a whole. At this time, since the installation rod needs to be inserted and cooperated with the ground to provide support, it cannot be placed vertically, which results in the initial position of the camera being inclined. At this time, it not only affects the initial shooting level.
[0071] In view of this, the present invention provides a support structure and a vehicle camera device with a horizontal adjustment function. Figures 1 to 9 This is an embodiment of the support structure with a horizontal adjustment function provided by the present invention.
[0072] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3The support structure 100 with horizontal adjustment function includes a support seat 1, a mounting frame 2, a horizontal adjustment component and a slide structure 4. The support seat 1 extends in the transverse direction and is used for being detachably installed on the side door of the vehicle body. The mounting frame 2 includes two mounting beams 22 extending in the longitudinal direction and spaced in the transverse direction. One end of the two mounting beams 22 is fixedly connected to the support seat 1. The horizontal adjustment component includes two movable guide rails 31 extending in the longitudinal direction. The two movable guide rails 31 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the two mounting beams 22. One end of each movable guide rail 31 can be rotatably installed along an axis extending in the transverse direction so that the other end can swing in the up and down direction. The slide structure 4 includes two slide grooves 4a arranged corresponding to the two movable guide rails 31, so that the slide structure 4 can be slidably installed on the two movable guide rails 31. The slide structure 4 is used for installing a camera for shooting or a mounting rod 210 for installing a camera for shooting.
[0073] In the technical solution of the present invention, the support seat 1 is first installed on the side door of the vehicle body. At this time, the mounting frame 2 is arranged on the side of the support seat 1 away from the vehicle body door. Then, according to the actual inclination angle of the mounting frame 2 as a whole, the horizontal adjustment is performed, and the end portions of the movable guide rails 31 that can be swung are swung, thereby changing the position relative to the mounting beam 22 until the two movable guide rails 31 are in a horizontal state. At this time, since the slide seat structure 4 is buckled on the movable guide rail 31 through the slide groove 4a, the position is changed accordingly to achieve the effect of being parallel to the ground, that is, when using During the process, even if the mounting beam 22 only plays a supporting role and may not be parallel to the ground, when the movable guide rail 31 is in a horizontal state, the slide structure 4 also slides along a horizontal trajectory during longitudinal sliding, thereby ensuring the horizontal shooting angle of the camera. When the mounting rod 210 is used to install the camera, the mounting rod 210 for installing the shooting camera is installed against the slide structure 4, and the horizontal adjustment component ensures the vertical placement and smooth pitch and roll swing of the mounting rod 210, thereby solving the problem of the existing car camera being tilted from the ground due to the curved surface of the car door after installation.
[0074] In order to realize the swing and fixation of the movable guide rail 31, in this embodiment, the other end of each mounting beam 22 is provided with an arc hole 221 extending in the up-down direction, one end of each movable guide rail 31 is hingedly mounted to one end of the corresponding mounting beam 22, and the other end of each movable guide rail 31 is penetrated and installed with a screw, and the screw can slide in the arc hole 221. By loosening the screw, the movable guide rail 31 can swing, and by tightening the screw with a nut, the movable guide rail 31 is fixed at a specific tilt angle, with a simple structure and convenient operation. It can be understood that the shape of the second groove 4112 is an arc convexly arranged in the direction away from the support seat 1, and can also play a guiding role.
[0075] To limit the swing stroke of the movable guide rail 31, mounting grooves 421222 are provided on the opposite side surfaces of the two mounting beams 22. The two opposite wall surfaces of each mounting groove 421222 in the up-down direction are inclined away from each other in the direction away from the support base 1. Each movable guide rail 31 is located in the mounting groove 421222, and the two opposite sides of each movable guide rail 31 in the up-down direction can swing to fit the corresponding wall surface of the mounting groove 421222. That is, the mounting groove 421222 is smaller in size on the side closer to the support base 1 in the longitudinal direction and larger on the other side. The movable guide rail 31 is hinged to the side of the mounting groove 421222 closer to the vehicle body, and the other side can swing in the mounting groove 421222. When the movable guide rail 31 fits the inclined upper wall surface or the lower wall surface of the mounting groove 421222, the maximum adjustment stroke is achieved.
[0076] It should be noted that the above two related technical features can be set simultaneously or alternatively. The effect is better when set simultaneously. It can be understood that when set simultaneously, the arc-shaped hole 221 is located on the bottom wall surface of the mounting groove 421222 and on the side of the mounting groove 421222 away from the support base 1, and the space here is large enough to meet the design requirements of the arc-shaped hole 221.
[0077] In other embodiments, the swing drive of the movable guide rail 31 can be realized by a connecting rod structure or a cylinder. However, considering the space limitation, the setting method of this embodiment is the optimal one.
[0078] Furthermore, on both sides of each movable guide rail 31 in the up-down direction, a longitudinally through groove 311 is recessed. Corresponding to each chute 4a, two oppositely arranged clamping protrusions are provided to be slidably inserted into the corresponding groove 311. It can be understood that the clamping protrusion and the groove 311 are of special-shaped structures, thereby closely connecting the movable guide rail 31 and the chute 4a, which can not only ensure smooth sliding but also prevent falling. In this embodiment, the cross-section of each clamping protrusion is conical.
[0079] Even further, a compensation block is installed in the chute 4a. The compensation block can make up for the gap between the chute 4a and the movable guide rail 31, improve the tightness of the fit, and prevent the shaking during the sliding of the slide structure 4.
[0080] It can be understood that the slide structure 4 can be an integral part or an assembled part. In one embodiment, the slide structure 4 includes two movable blocks 41 and a base 42. The two movable blocks 41 are arranged at intervals in the transverse direction. The opposite sides of the two movable blocks 41 are provided with the chutes 4a. The base 42 is detachably installed on the two movable blocks 41 for installing a shooting camera or a mounting rod 210 for installing a shooting camera. The slide structure 4 can be designed as a quick-installation structure, which can be disassembled and assembled conveniently, facilitating the user to assemble and replace other accessories. It can be understood that the two movable blocks 41 play a role in sliding fit, and the base 42 plays a role in support.
[0081] When installing a shooting camera through the mounting rod 210, when the mounting rod 210 makes a pitching motion, since the position of the mounting rod 210 remains unchanged after being inserted into the ground, the movement trajectory of the mounting rod 210 when it swings is an arc line movement centered around the grounding position point. At this time, if it slides on the mounting beam 22 of the inclined mounting frame 2, there will be serious movement jamming. Even when the mounting beam 22 is adjusted to a horizontal state, the mounting rod 210 still jams and is not smooth when sliding on the mounting beam 22, affecting the use effect. Therefore, in one embodiment, the opposite sides of the two movable blocks 41 are recessed with accommodation grooves 411 that penetrate upward. The lower wall surface of the accommodation groove 411 is provided with two first grooves 4111 arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction. The opposite walls of the two first grooves 4111 penetrate through the movable block 41; the base 42 has two mounting ends opposite to each other in the transverse direction, and the two mounting ends are respectively inserted and installed in the two accommodation grooves 411, and the base 42 can be inclined relative to the movable block 41 under the action of an external force, so that one end of each mounting end in the longitudinal direction can extend into the corresponding first groove 4111; for the convenience of description, with the direction towards the vehicle body as the front, initially, the base 42 can contact the lower wall surface of the accommodation groove 411 and is overall horizontal. When it needs to pitch forward, the base 42 is inclined under the action of an external force, the front ends of the mounting ends will extend into the corresponding first grooves 4111, and the rear ends will tilt up. At this time, the pitching motion of the camera is based on the movable block 41, and the position of the movable block 41 remains stable, while the bottom plate tilts, so as to avoid the friction caused by the angular interference between the arc line movement mode and the mounting beam 22 during the pitching and swaying motion.
[0082] Further, a second groove 4112 is further provided between the two first grooves 4111. Middle portions of the side surfaces of the two mounting ends facing away from each other are recessed to form grooves 421 penetrating in the up-and-down direction. The slide structure 4 further includes two sliding bearings 44 rotatably mounted in the two grooves 421 along axes extending transversely. Lower ends of the sliding bearings 44 contact the second groove 4112. The two sliding bearings 44 are high-speed miniature bearings and can serve as fulcrums to roll in the second groove 4112 when the base 42 is tilted, thereby reducing friction and ensuring the stability of pitching.
[0083] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the slide structure 4 further includes two first locking bolts respectively threaded through the side surfaces of the two movable blocks 41 facing away from each other and extending into the accommodating groove 411. An annular avoidance groove 431 is formed on the threaded section of each first locking bolt. The slide structure 4 further includes two locking blocks 451, a plurality of pre-tightening springs, and two connecting screws 452. The two locking blocks 451 are respectively arranged between the two mounting ends and the side walls of the corresponding accommodating grooves 411. At least three matching grooves spaced longitudinally are provided on the side surfaces of the two locking blocks 451 facing away from each other. The middle matching groove is used for the first locking bolt to pass through. A first threaded hole is formed on the upper wall surface of the middle matching groove. The plurality of pre-tightening springs are respectively installed in the plurality of side matching grooves. Ends of the pre-tightening springs abut against the side walls of the corresponding accommodating grooves 411. Each connecting screw 452 is threadedly installed in the corresponding first threaded hole and extends into the corresponding annular avoidance groove 431. The locking block 451 is used to compensate for the fitting gap between the base 42 and the accommodating groove 411. Specifically, in the stable state, the first locking bolt abuts against the base 42, and the locking block 451 is subjected to the elastic force of the pre-tightening spring and maintains a stable state, so that both sides of the base 42 can be tensioned and balanced to ensure stability. When the base 42 needs to move, the first locking bolt is loosened. At this time, the locking block 451 is restricted by the connecting screw 452, so it can retreat together under the drive of the first locking bolt. At this time, the pre-tightening spring is compressed, the locking block 451 is separated from the base 42, and the base 42 can swing. Such a setting can also prevent the first locking bolt from completely exiting the accommodating groove 411 after being loosened, avoiding the situation that it is not easy for the user to align the parts during reassembly.
[0084] In order to ensure that the locking block 451 will not pop up upward after installation, in this embodiment, baffles extending towards each other are provided at the upper ends of the two opposite side walls of each accommodating groove 411 in the longitudinal direction. First stoppers are convexly provided on the two sides of the locking block 451 in the longitudinal direction. The upper end surfaces of the stoppers are abutted against the corresponding two baffles. At this time, the position of the locking block 451 is limited by the first stoppers, and it will not pucker upward under the action of elastic force. At the same time, it can maintain a relatively stable orientation with the movable block 41. It can be understood that the lateral movement stroke of the locking block 451 should not exceed the lateral dimension of the baffle.
[0085] Further, when the sliding bearing 44 is provided, second stoppers are convexly provided at the upper ends of the opposite sides of the two locking blocks 451. The second stoppers extend above the base 42 and can cover the sliding bearing 44, ensuring the overall appearance after fitting and protecting the sliding bearing 44 at the same time.
[0086] In order to fix the base 42 in different orientations, please refer to Figures 4 to 8The slide structure 4 also includes two plug-in block assemblies, both of which are located between the two mounting beams 22 and on both sides of the base 42 in the longitudinal direction. Each of the plug-in block assemblies includes a plug-in block body 461, a plurality of spring 463 positioning grooves 462, a plurality of springs 463 and a second locking bolt 464. The plug-in block body 461 includes a first plate body 4611 extending in the up-down direction and a second plate body 4612 extending toward the base 42. The second plate body 4612 is formed with an inclined surface 4612a inclined from top to bottom in a direction away from the base 42 toward the side of the base 42. The first plate body 4611 is provided with a first plate body 4612a extending from top to bottom in a direction away from the base 42. A second threaded hole extending in the longitudinal direction is opened in the middle of 611, and a plurality of spring 463 positioning grooves 462 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 42 in the longitudinal direction, and on both sides of the second threaded hole in the transverse direction. A plurality of springs 463 are arranged between the first plate section and the base 42, and are respectively inserted into the corresponding spring 463 positioning grooves 462. The bolt thread is passed through the second threaded hole and can be inserted into the base 42; wherein the insert block body 461 can be movably inserted into the two corresponding first grooves 4111, and the inclined surface 4612a contacts the lower wall surface of the first groove 4111. When the base 42 is in a balanced state, the second plate segment can be inserted into the first groove 4111 to compensate for the gap between the bottom plate and the bottom wall of the first groove 4111, providing a stable supporting plane for the base 42. The first plate segment maintains a stable position and is in a tensioned state under the combined action of the spring 463 force and the second locking bolt 464. At this time, the inclined surface 4612a does not play a role. When adjusting the inclination of the base 42, the second locking bolt 464 is first loosened, and the spring 463 is extended to drive the second plate segment to leave the first groove 4111. After the base 42 is tilted, the first groove 4111 is adjusted according to the first groove 4111. The remaining gap in the first groove 4111 is used to reasonably adjust the length of the second plate section of each insert body 461 that can be extended. It can be understood that the lengths of the two second plate sections on both sides of the longitudinal direction are different. At this time, since the insert body 461 always needs to be inserted to a certain depth through the second locking bolt 464, it is connected with the base 42 and is tilted together with the base 42. Therefore, the cross section of the remaining gap in the first groove 4111 is also triangular. At this time, the inclined surface 4612a plays a role of fitting the bottom wall surface of the first groove 4111, thereby limiting the base 42 and limiting it to a specific tilt angle. The base 42 can be fixed in any state.
[0087] Considering that the slide structure 4 needs to be kept in a fixed state when it is arranged when it slides to a specified position, in this embodiment, at least one of the movable blocks 41 is provided with a support arm located above the corresponding mounting beam 22, and the upper surface of the support arm is penetrated with a third threaded hole connected to the card slot 311, and the slide structure 4 also includes at least one third locking bolt, and the third locking bolt is threadedly penetrated in the third threaded hole to tightly cooperate with the mounting beam 22 to fix the slide structure 4 to the mounting frame 2. The threaded matching form has a simple structure and is easy to operate. A handle can be provided on the outside of the third locking bolt for easy operation. It can be understood that the third threaded hole should be arranged to avoid the accommodation groove 411.
[0088] The present invention does not limit the way in which the support base 1 is fixed to the side door of the vehicle body. The support base 1 can be set to be hung on the position of the door window frame, or it can be hung on the position of the door handle and / or the rearview mirror, and the selection is made according to the actual application scenario and shooting needs of the photographer. In this embodiment, the support base 1 is provided with a plurality of suction cups 11 spaced laterally on the side away from the mounting frame 2, and the plurality of suction cups 11 are used to be adsorbed to the surface of the side door of the vehicle body. In this way, the support base 1 is adsorbed and fixed on the vehicle door by means of the suction cups 11, and the outer surface of the vehicle door is used as the positioning, which is not restricted by the vehicle window. The structure of the adsorption method itself is easy to simplify and set, and is more beautiful. At the same time, it will not affect the opening and closing of the vehicle door, and better meet the video shooting requirements and convenience requirements. At the same time, the suction cups 11 will not be restricted by the vehicle model when in use, and have better adaptability.
[0089] This embodiment does not limit the number of the suction cups 11. Two suction cups 11 or three suction cups 11 can be set according to actual needs. Multiple suction cups 11 can provide better adsorption force. It is preferred to use 6-inch suction cups 11, which have a load-bearing capacity of 80KG and a better load-bearing effect. At the same time, the two mounting beams 22 can be set to slide on the support plate, so that their relative position with the car window can be fine-tuned.
[0090] Moreover, the mounting frame 2 also includes a support plate, and the two mounting beams 22 are arranged on both sides of the support plate along the horizontal direction, so that the mounting frame 2 is arranged as an assembled structure, and the overall structure is U-shaped. The support plate can be installed on the support seat 1 through a quick-install structure, and the support plate can be designed to slide along the support seat 1.
[0091] The present invention also provides a vehicle photography device, comprising the above-mentioned support structure 100 with horizontal adjustment function. The vehicle photography device includes all the technical features of the above-mentioned support structure 100 with horizontal adjustment function, and therefore, also has the technical effects brought by all the above-mentioned technical features, which will not be described one by one here.
[0092] Specifically, the vehicle-mounted shooting device further includes a vehicle-mounted shooting assembly and a support assembly. The vehicle-mounted shooting assembly includes a mounting rod 210. The length of the mounting rod 210 is adjustable, and it is rotatably mounted on the sliding seat structure 4 along an axis that can move up and down and extends in the up-and-down direction. The mounting rod 210 is used for mounting a shooting device. The lower end of the mounting rod 210 is inserted into the ground. The support assembly includes a plurality of support parts 310. The plurality of support parts 310 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the mounting rod 210. The lower ends of the support parts 310 are inserted into the ground.
[0093] When used with the vehicle, first adjust the position of the movable guide rail 31 to make the entire mounting level. Then insert the plurality of support parts 310 and the mounting rod 210 into the ground together, so as to achieve a stable multi-rod support effect. The mounting rod 210 serves as the main support and is used for placing the shooting device. The height of the shooting camera can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the mounting rod 210 and the position of the mounting rod 210 relative to the sliding seat structure 4. Push the mounting rod 210 to drive the camera on it to perform pitching actions.
[0094] Further, please refer to Figure 9 , the mounting rod 210 includes a first sleeve and a second sleeve sleeved in sequence. The first sleeve is mounted on the sliding seat structure 4. The second sleeve is inserted into the lower end of the first sleeve and can be movably mounted in the up-and-down direction. A long chute 4a extending in the up-and-down direction is formed on the circumferential side surface of the second sleeve. The bottom wall of the long chute 4a is provided in a through manner. The vehicle-mounted shooting assembly further includes a connecting piece 220 and a locking sleeve 230. One end of the connecting piece 220 is slidably mounted in the long chute 4a through a driving structure, and the other end is used for mounting a shooting camera. The locking sleeve 230 is sleeved on the outer surface of the first sleeve and corresponds to the overlapping part of the first sleeve and the second sleeve, and can lock the first sleeve and the second sleeve. The overlapping length of the first sleeve and the second sleeve can be changed by adjusting the tightness of the locking sleeve 230. At this time, the mounting rod 210 realizes adjustable length through the cooperation of the first sleeve and the second sleeve. At the same time, a connecting piece 220 is added to be able to mount a shooting camera, realizing a low shooting height.
[0095] In order to adjust the position of the connecting member 220 in the elongated slide groove 4a, the connecting member 220 can be driven to move by a hand crank and a driving rope as a driving structure. The hand crank is placed outside, and the handle control part of the hand crank extends to the interior of the car for people in the car to hold. The driving rope is in the inner cavity of the second sleeve, and its upper end extends out of the second sleeve and the first sleeve to be connected to the winding drum of the hand crank, and the lower end is connected to the connecting member 220 to drive the connecting member 220 to move back and forth in the up and down direction. The driving rope is driven to be reeled or extended by rotating the handle of the hand crank, so that the lower end of the driving rope moves in the up and down direction, thereby driving the connecting member 220 to move in the up and down direction, thereby driving the shooting camera to rise and fall relative to the mounting rod 210, so that the photographer can operate in the car, which is more convenient.
[0096] Specifically, the locking sleeve 230 is a horizontal U-shaped structure as a whole, which is sleeved on the outside of the first sleeve and is locked and released by means of bolts passing through two pairs of two extension arms.
[0097] The door heights of different models are different. During the adaptation and adjustment process, the length of the mounting rod 210 needs to be adjusted. The lifting height of the bottom camera is set at 70 cm. Considering that part of the second sleeve will always extend into the first sleeve, the strength of the second sleeve is affected due to the through groove. When the first sleeve and the second sleeve are locked, the second sleeve will be deformed and contracted due to pressure, resulting in failure to lock. When the second sleeve is inserted into the ground, when the first sleeve is subjected to gravity, it will naturally slide down. Therefore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The car-shooting assembly further includes a support member 250, which is cylindrical in shape. An abutment portion is provided at the upper end of the support member 250. The support member 250 is sleeved and fixed on the outer surface of the upper end of the second sleeve, and the abutment portion abuts against the upper end of the second sleeve. First, the support member 250 is tightly connected to the second sleeve, which will not affect the sliding of the second sleeve. At the same time, when the locking sleeve 230 is locked, the support member 250 can abut against the first sleeve, thereby avoiding the problem of deformation of the second sleeve, and solving the problem that the second sleeve is provided with a long slide groove 4a, which causes the installation rod 210 to shrink when it encounters a heavy object pressing down.
[0098] Specifically, the cross-section of the support member 250 in the vertical direction is L-shaped, and two oppositely arranged through grooves are opened on the cylindrical wall of the support member 250. The lower ends of the two through grooves are connected, and the upper ends extend to the abutment portion. In this way, the inner diameter of the lower end of the support member 250 can be set to be slightly smaller than the second sleeve. During installation, it can be interference fit with the second sleeve and be stretched open by the second sleeve, thereby achieving a tight fit.
[0099] The existing tripod uses a hand-rotated fastening sleeve structure for the locking structure, which is generally made of PVC material. It is tightened by rotating clockwise and loosened by rotating counterclockwise. When using this structure, when encountering a reverse force, the locked state may become loose. If applied to the mounting rod 210 structure, there is a risk of the mounting rod 210 falling. Therefore, in this embodiment, the sliding seat structure 4 includes two movable blocks 41 and a base 42. A through hole is provided in the middle of the base 42. The vehicle photographing assembly further includes a fixed seat 240 and a locking member. The fixed seat 240 is formed with a through channel that penetrates vertically and communicates with the through hole for the mounting rod 210 to pass through and be installed. The upper end of the fixed seat 240 forms two extending arms that are oppositely arranged laterally. The two extending arms are located on both sides of the through channel. The two extending arms abut against the outer surface of the mounting rod 210. Connecting threaded holes for avoiding the mounting rod 210 are provided on the opposite sides of the two extending arms. The locking member is sequentially threaded through the two connecting threaded holes to lock the mounting rod 210 into the fixed seat 240. The cooperation between the mounting rod 210 and the movable seat structure depends on the fixed seat 240. When the mounting rod 210 rises until it is completely off the ground, the locking member is tightened. At this time, the two extending arms are pressed by the pressure to clamp the mounting rod 210, so that it will not become loose, which is more reliable.
[0100] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific installation form of the multiple support parts 310. In one embodiment, the multiple support parts 310 can be directly installed on the outer surface of the mounting rod 210 through bearing connection. When the flat rotation function needs to be realized, by rotating the mounting rod 210, the multiple support parts 310 can still remain fixed to the ground under the action of the bearings.
[0101] In other embodiments, the support assembly further includes a connecting seat plate. The connecting seat is adapted to the outer surface of the fixed seat 240 and can be fixedly installed on the circumferential side surface of the fixed seat 240. Each support portion 310 includes a connecting rod and an electric telescopic rod. The connecting rod extends horizontally. One end of the connecting rod is detachably installed on the side surface of the connecting seat plate. The electric telescopic rod extends vertically and its length is adjustable. The upper end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to the other end of the connecting rod, and the included angle between the electric telescopic rod and the connecting rod is adjustable. The lower end of the electric telescopic rod is for inserting into the ground. The connecting rod serves as a support joint, so that there is a certain distance between the whole electric telescopic rod and the mounting rod 210, avoiding interference with other structures. The electric telescopic rod can achieve the change of the included angle between it and the connecting rod bracket through ways such as rotational cooperation and screw cooperation with the arc-shaped hole 221. That is, each electric telescopic rod can be adjusted to be obliquely inserted into the ground. At this time, not only the base 42 is made more stable, but also the positions on the ground that are not easy to insert can be avoided. The design of the electric telescopic rod realizes the automatic telescopic adjustment of the length. During user operation, when encountering an uneven road surface, it can be conveniently telescoped to adapt to the ground and touch the bottom for support. The user does not need to get out of the vehicle for adjustment, so as to avoid disturbing wild animals when getting out of the vehicle. The operation can be completed entirely in the vehicle. It can be understood that during the adjustment of the overall lifting and horizontal rotation of the mounting rod 210, the upper end of the electric telescopic rod can be fixed together with the fixed seat 240 and realize self-length adjustment through its own electric drive, so it can leave the ground.
[0102] Specifically, the present invention does not limit the structural form of the electric telescopic rod. It can be set as a multi-section structure, and the relative positions of adjacent two sections are electrically controlled to enable overall contraction and elongation. Specifically, it can be two sections, three sections, four sections, etc., which are not limited here. It can also be realized that the length is adjustable by adding a folding hose and electrically controlling the compression and elongation of the folding hose.
[0103] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present invention by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
