[0001] This invention relates to the field of photographic equipment technology, and in particular to an adjustment component and a photographic kit. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, to meet the shooting and operation needs of cameras, more and more users are using camera grips as support accessories to facilitate handheld shooting. Furthermore, with product updates, some camera grips can adjust the relative position of the camera and its grip section.

[0003] However, existing camera handles with position adjustment functions require adjustment to be performed on a fixed workbench due to the design of their position adjustment mechanism. They also require the use of auxiliary tools (such as screwdrivers), which is cumbersome, time-consuming, and laborious, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide an adjustment component that addresses the technical problems of cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive operation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes an adjustment component for a photographic kit, comprising a mounting body, a connecting component, a support rod, a locking member, and a first elastic member. The mounting body is provided with a receiving groove extending in its vertical direction. At least one side wall of the receiving groove is recessed with a slide rail, and one side wall of the slide rail is recessed with a plurality of locking grooves. The connecting component includes a connecting seat, one end of which is received in the receiving groove. The support rod passes through the connecting seat. The locking member extends in the horizontal direction and passes through the connecting seat. The first elastic member applies a force to the end of the locking member to engage with the locking groove. When the engaging member is actuated, the end of the engaging member disengages from the engaging groove, the connecting seat can selectively slide along the vertical direction of the bearing rod, and after the engaging member is released, the first elastic element drives the end of the engaging member to engage with the engaging groove.

[0006] In some embodiments, the connecting seat is provided with a sliding groove with its opening facing the front end. The two sidewalls of the sliding groove in the left and right directions are provided with first limiting grooves extending in the front and back directions. The adjusting component also includes a pressing member, which is slidably accommodated in the sliding groove, with one end of the pressing member extending out of the opening of the sliding groove. The locking member is fixedly installed on the pressing member, and both ends of the locking member extend out of the two first limiting grooves. The first elastic member is located between the pressing member and the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0007] In some embodiments, the receiving groove extends through the mounting body from front to back, one end of the pressing member extends out of the front end of the receiving groove, and the end of the connecting seat extending out of the rear end of the receiving groove is provided with an external component, the external component being used to connect photographic accessories.

[0008] In some embodiments, the external component includes a mounting base, a slider, and at least one top support. The top of the mounting base has a through-hole fixing groove on both sides, and the bottom of the mounting base has a mounting groove. The slider is slidably accommodated in the mounting groove. At least one second limiting groove is provided vertically through the bottom wall of the fixing groove. One end of the second limiting groove is open to communicate with the mounting groove, and the other end is open to communicate with the fixing groove. One top support is accommodated in one of the second limiting grooves. After assembly, one end of the top support abuts against the sliding member, and the other end extends out of the bottom wall surface of the fixed groove. When the sliding member is slid to the first position, the sliding member releases the top support. After the sliding member is released, the sliding member drives the top support to reset. In some embodiments, the slider has a recessed clearance groove on one side facing the top support member. When the slider slides, the top support member slides into or out of the clearance groove, such that when the slider slides to the first position, the opening of the clearance groove is located below the top support member.

[0009] In some embodiments, the external component further includes a second elastic member and a drive member slidably received in the mounting groove. The drive member is located on the side of the slide member away from the top support member. The elastic member applies a force to the drive member to push the slide member against the top support member. One end of the drive member extends out of the outside of the mounting groove. The drive member and the slide member are drivenly connected by at least one inclined groove and at least one drive portion. The free end of one of the drive portions extends into one of the inclined grooves.

[0010] In some embodiments, the adjusting assembly further includes a kit, wherein the connecting seat has a through hole in the vertical direction, the kit is fixed in the through hole, and the kit is slidably sleeved on the support rod; and / or The engaging component is cylindrical, and the engaging groove is semi-circular; and / or The other side wall of the slide is flat.

[0011] In some embodiments, a plurality of the engagement grooves are equally spaced on the sidewall of the front end of the slide rail, and there are two engagement members, which are arranged vertically, with the distance between the two engagement members being an integer multiple of the distance between two adjacent engagement grooves; and / or The slide rails are recessed into both sidewalls of the receiving groove.

[0012] In some embodiments, the connecting assembly further includes an end cap fixed to the front end of the connecting seat, the pressing member passing through the end cap, the front end of the receiving groove being flared, and the rear end of the end cap having inclined surfaces on both sides, the distance between the two inclined surfaces decreasing along the direction close to the connecting seat, and the two inclined surfaces slidingly fitting against the two sidewalls of the flared opening of the receiving groove.

[0013] The present invention also proposes a photography kit, including a handle body and an adjustment component as described above, wherein the handle body is integrally disposed with the mounting body.

[0014] The technical solution of this invention involves actuating the engaging component, which moves along the front-to-back direction on the connecting seat, causing the end of the engaging component to disengage from the engaging groove and approach the other side wall of the slide. Simultaneously, the first elastic element is compressed or stretched, and the connecting seat can selectively slide along the vertical direction of the bearing rod. After releasing the engaging component, the first elastic element drives the end of the engaging component to engage with the engaging groove, thereby adjusting the vertical fixed position of the connecting seat on the mounting body. This method is simple to operate, saves time and effort, and improves the user experience. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0017] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] This invention proposes an adjustment component for use in photography kits to assist camera shooting. Cameras require various accessories to work together for shooting assistance. The adjustment component can be a side handle, top handle, or jug ​​handle, among other photography accessories. These accessories are connected via interfaces such as cold shoe mounts, threaded mounts, slider mounts, and ARRI mounts. Taking a side handle as an example, the mounting body 10 serves as the handle for user grip. The side handle can be connected to other photography accessories, such as camera protective frames, via external components on the connector 21.

[0019] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly includes a mounting body 10, a connecting assembly 20, a bearing rod 30, a locking member 40, and a first elastic member 50. The mounting body 10 is provided with a receiving groove 11 extending in the vertical direction. At least one side wall of the receiving groove 11 is recessed with a slide 12. One side wall of the slide 12 is recessed with a plurality of locking grooves 13. The connecting assembly 20 includes a connecting seat 21. One end of the connecting seat 21 is received in the receiving groove 11. The bearing rod 30 passes through the connecting seat 21. The locking member 40 extends in the left and right direction and passes through the connecting seat 21. The first elastic member 50 applies a force to the end of the locking member 40 to engage with the locking groove 13. In this invention, when the engaging member 40 is actuated, it moves along the front-to-back direction on the connecting seat 21, causing the end of the engaging member 40 to disengage from the engaging groove 13 and approach the other side wall of the slide rail 12. Simultaneously, the first elastic member 50 is compressed or stretched. The connecting seat 21 can selectively slide along the vertical direction of the bearing rod 30. After releasing the engaging member 40, the first elastic member 50 drives the end of the engaging member 40 to engage with the engaging groove 13, thereby adjusting the vertical fixed position of the connecting seat 21 on the mounting body 10. The operation is simple, time-saving, and labor-saving. The first elastic member 50 can be a compression spring or a tension spring. The actuation of the engaging member 40 can be manual or driven by a driving member or driving structure. Several engaging grooves 13 are distributed along the vertical direction, and the number of engaging members 40 is at least one.

[0020] Reference Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the connecting seat 21 is provided with a groove 22 with the opening facing the front end. The two side walls of the groove 22 in the left and right directions are provided with first limiting grooves 23 extending in the front and back directions. The adjustment component also includes a pressing member 60, which is slidably accommodated in the groove 22. One end of the pressing member 60 extends out of the groove of the groove 22. A locking member 40 is fixedly installed on the pressing member 60, and both ends of the locking member 40 extend out of the two first limiting grooves 23. A first elastic member 50 is located between the pressing member 60 and the inner wall of the groove 22. The first elastic member 50 can be a compression spring. An elastic mounting position (not shown) can be recessed on the side of the pressing member 60. The structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0021] In this embodiment, when the pressing member 60 is pressed backward, the pressing member 60 compresses the first elastic member 50. At the same time, the pressing member 60 drives the two sides of the locking member 40 to slide along the two first limiting grooves 23 to disengage from the locking groove 13. Then, the connecting seat 21 and the bearing rod 30 are unlocked. The connecting seat 21 slides up and down along the bearing rod 30 to adjust the position of the connecting seat 21. After adjusting to a preset suitable shooting position, the pressing member 60 is released. When the first elastic member 50 drives the pressing member 60 to reset, the pressing member 60 drives the locking member 40 to reset, so that the end of the locking member 40 engages with the locking groove 13, thereby locking the connecting seat 21 onto the bearing rod 30, so that the connecting seat 21 is fixed relative to the mounting body 10.

[0022] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the receiving groove 11 extends through the mounting body 10 from front to back, one end of the pressing member 60 extends out of the front end of the receiving groove 11, and the end of the connecting seat 21 extending out of the rear end of the receiving groove 11 is provided with an external component 70. The external component 70 is used to connect photography accessories. The photography accessories can be protective frames for electronic devices such as cameras, mobile phones, and stabilizers, and can be stabilizer brackets, magic brackets, etc.

[0023] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 11In some embodiments, the external component 70 includes a mounting base 71, a slider 75, and at least one support member 76. The top of the mounting base 71 has a through-hole fixing groove 72, and the bottom of the mounting base 71 has a mounting groove (not shown). The slider 75 is slidably accommodated in the mounting groove. At least one second limiting groove 73 is provided vertically through the bottom wall of the fixing groove 72. One end of the second limiting groove 73 is open and communicates with the mounting groove, and the other end is open and communicates with the fixing groove 72. The support member 76 is accommodated in one of the second limiting grooves 73. After assembly, one end of the support member 76 abuts against the slider 75, and the other end extends out of the bottom wall surface of the fixing groove 72. When the slider 75 is slid to the first position, the slider 75 releases the support member 76. After the slider 75 is released, the slider drives the support member 76 to reset.

[0024] The external component 70 is used to detachably connect with the photography accessory. The photography accessory may include a first frame 200. The first frame 200 is provided with a number of parallel and spaced snap-fit ​​slots 201 in the horizontal direction. The first frame 200 passes through the fixing slot 72 in the left and right directions so that the first frame 200 is limited in the vertical direction within the fixing slot 72.

[0025] In this embodiment, the first frame 200 can be clearance-fitted with the inner wall of the fixing groove 72. The opposite side walls of the fixing groove 72 are erected on both sides of the first frame 200. A stop portion (not shown) is protruding above the opposite side walls of the fixing groove 72. Both stop portions extend toward the inside of the fixing groove 72 to prevent the sides of the first frame 200 from detaching from the top of the fixing groove 72. During assembly, the sliding member 75 is slid to the first position to release all the supporting members 76. After losing the pushing force of the sliding member 75, all the supporting members 76 can retract into the second limiting groove 73. As one end of the first frame slides into the fixing groove from the slot on one side, the surface of the first frame pushes the supporting members 76 into the second limiting groove 73, and the surface of the first frame slides along the circumferential surface of the supporting members 76. After the first frame slides to the position required by the user (which can be called the preset position), the sliding member 75 is released, and the sliding member 75 can drive the supporting members 76. During the reset process of component 76, when a supporting component 76 slides along the inner wall of a snap-fit ​​groove 201 to the top surface near the top opening of the snap-fit, the supporting component 76 gradually inserts into a second limiting groove 73, thereby fixing the first frame horizontally and locking the first frame onto the mounting base 71. The supporting component 76 abuts against the first frame and the mounting base 71, thereby enabling the mounting base 71 and the photographic accessory to bear load in the vertical direction, preventing wobbling between the first frame and the mounting base 71. The operation is simple and effortless, the structure is simplified, the user experience is improved, and the shooting effect is enhanced.

[0026] During disassembly, the sliding member 75 is slid to the first position so that the sliding member 75 releases all the supporting members 76. After the supporting members 76 lose the supporting force of the sliding member 75, they release the first frame. As the first frame slides out of the fixing groove, the supporting members 76 disengage from the snap-fit ​​groove 201 of the first frame when the surface of the first frame slides along all the supporting members 76. At the same time, all the supporting members 76 retract into the second limiting groove 73. After the first frame slides out of the fixing groove, the sliding member 75 is released, and the sliding member 75 drives the supporting members 76 to reset.

[0027] The slider 75 can be controlled by the second elastic element 78 to abut against the support member 76, so that the support member 76 extends out of the bottom wall surface of the fixing groove, thereby locking the first frame. The second elastic element 78 can be a spring, such as a compression spring or a tension spring. The second elastic element 78 applies a force to the slider 75 to maintain it in the initial state, so that the slider 75 abuts against the support member 76. When the slider 75 slides to the first position, the second elastic element 78 is stretched to generate a tensile force. After the slider 75 is released, the second elastic element 78 pulls the slider 75 to slide back to the initial position. The second elastic element 78 can be compressed between the slider 75 and the mounting base 71. For example, the side of the slider 75 away from the support member 76 has a protruding part. The protruding part extends out of the mounting base 71 and can be used by the user to lift and hold it. The second elastic element 78 is located between the protruding part and the mounting base 71. A second elastic element 78 is provided between one end of the sliding member 75 in the direction of movement and the mounting base 71. The sliding member 75 has a protruding pushing part (not shown) at this end, and the pushing part is located on the outside of the mounting base 71. The slider 75 can also be driven by a cam. The cam is an asymmetrical circle and is rotatably connected to the mounting base 71. It is used to drive the slider 75 to move closer to the second limiting groove 73 to hold the top member 76, or to move away from the second limiting groove 73 to release the top member 76. The sliding member 75 can also be driven to move by the pressing component and the second elastic member 78. For example, the second elastic member 78 is compressed between one end of the sliding member 75 and the inner wall of the mounting groove. The second elastic member 78 extends along the sliding direction of the sliding member 75. The other end of the sliding member 75 has a slope. The pressing component includes a button and a second elastic member 78. One end of the button is elastically connected to the mounting base 71, and the other end has a protruding button portion that extends out of the mounting base 71. The side of the button with the button portion has a second slope. When the user presses the button portion, the second elastic member 78 is compressed. At the same time, the second slope and the slope of the sliding member 75 slide against each other so that the thickness of the button between the mounting base 71 and the slope of the sliding member 75 decreases. Thus, the second elastic member 78 pushes the sliding member 75 further closer to the second slope.

[0028] The mounting base 71 can be integrally installed or separately installed. The two side walls of the fixing groove 72 can be movable or fixedly connected. The mounting base 71 is also connected to the end of the connecting base 21 away from the mounting body 10. The end of the connecting base 21 away from the pressing member 60 is provided with a cover plate 26. The cover plate 26 can cover the mounting groove of the mounting base 71 and limit the top member 76 and the sliding member 75 in the mounting groove, thereby realizing the fixed connection of the handle body and other photographic accessories. Preferably, the end of the connecting base 21 away from the mounting body 10 can be provided with several threaded holes for connection with other photographic accessories. The mounting base 71 can also be connected to other photographic accessories through clamping components, snap-fit ​​interfaces, ARRI interfaces, slide interfaces, etc. Other photographic accessories can also be fixedly connected to the mounting base 71.

[0029] When there are multiple second limiting grooves 73, the second limiting grooves 73 can be arranged in the same row, horizontally or vertically, and the sliding member 75 can be elongated; the second limiting grooves 73 can also be arranged in multiple rows, and the second limiting grooves 73 in adjacent rows can be staggered or collinear; the sliding member 75 can also be fork or comb shaped; there can also be multiple sliding members 75. The top holding member 76 can be a ball or a cylindrical member, and the second limiting groove 73 is correspondingly set as a circular hole groove or a horizontal cylindrical groove, which facilitates sliding with the first frame and reduces friction. The two ends of the cylindrical member can be arc-shaped surfaces.

[0030] Among them, the photography accessories can be accessories used to assist electronic devices in shooting. These accessories can include sliders, camera protective frames, L-plates, adapter plates, etc. The camera protective frame can be semi-enclosed; when fully enclosed, one end of the first frame can be opened for easy connection to the mounting base 71. When the wall of the fixing groove 72 of the mounting base 71 can be opened and closed, the first frame of the camera protective frame can be integrally set. When the photography accessory is a slider, the slider can be connected to other photography accessories via screws. The slider has a connecting groove 202, and one end of the screw passes through the connecting groove 202 to screw the slider onto the frame of the camera protective frame. To make the slider connection more stable, two or more screws can be fixed in the connecting groove 202. The position of the screws in the connecting groove 202 is adjustable to accommodate screw holes with different spacing, improving applicability.

[0031] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 8 and Figure 10 The sliding member 75 has a recessed relief groove 751 on one side facing the top support member 76. When the sliding member 75 slides, the top support member 76 slides into or out of the relief groove 751, so that when the sliding member 75 slides to the first position, the orthographic projection of the top support member 76 on the vertical plane is located inside the orthographic projection of the relief groove 751 on the vertical plane. That is, the opening of the relief groove 751 is directly opposite the top support member 76. The number of relief grooves 751 and the number of top support members 76 are matched. In order to lock the first frame, there can be more than two top support members 76. The top support members 76 can be arranged horizontally, vertically, in a row, or in a linear arrangement, etc., without any restrictions. The structure is simple and makes the overall structure compact.

[0032] After assembly, the clearance groove 751 and the second limiting groove 73 are offset in the front-to-back direction. The front end of the top holding member 76 abuts against the sliding member 75. When the sliding member 75 slides in the first direction, it drives the clearance groove 751 to move so that the clearance groove 751 gradually aligns with the second limiting groove 73 in the front-to-back direction. As a result, the front end of the top holding member 76 can fall into the clearance groove 751, thereby releasing the first frame. After the sliding member 75 is released, when the sliding member 75 slides in the second direction, the clearance groove 751 gradually offsets from the second limiting groove 73 and the top holding member 76. The top holding member 76 slides along the inner wall of the clearance groove 751 until it abuts against the end face of the sliding member 75, thereby locking the first frame. The first direction and the second direction can be opposite directions. For example, the first direction is to move upward towards the mounting base 71, and the second direction is to move downward towards the mounting base 71.

[0033] To reduce the thickness of the mounting base 71 and make the locking of the first frame more stable, the top support 76 is cylindrical. The shape of the second limiting groove 73 is adapted to the top support 76, and the top support 76 is laterally accommodated within the second limiting groove 73, so that the outer peripheral surface of the top support 76 abuts against the first frame. The surface of the first frame is provided with several recessed locking grooves 201, which extend along the width direction of the first frame. The top support 76 extends along the left and right direction of the mounting base 71, reducing or avoiding the misalignment between the first frame and the mounting base 71 in the front and back directions. Two rows of top supports 76 can be provided along the left and right direction of the mounting base 71, and the front and rear rows of top supports 76 can be staggered or arranged collinearly. The extension direction of the top support 76 also has collinear top supports 76, with multiple short top supports 76 replacing a long top support 76, which facilitates processing and production and makes driving convenient.

[0034] In one embodiment, to facilitate driving the slider 75, the external component further includes a second elastic member 78 and a driving member 77 slidably accommodated in the mounting groove. The second elastic member 78 may be a compression spring or a tension spring. The driving member 77 is located on the side of the slider 75 away from the top support member 76, so as to limit the slider 75 between the top support member 76 and the driving member 77, so that the second elastic member 78, the slider 75 and the driving member 77 are connected by force. The second elastic member 78 applies a force to the driving member 77 to push the slider 75 against the top support member 76. One end of the driving member 77 extends out of the mounting groove for user operation. The driving member 77 and the slider 75 are drivenly connected by at least one inclined groove 771 and at least one driving part 753. The free end of the driving part 753 extends into the inclined groove 771.

[0035] One end of the drive component 77 can extend out of the left, right, front or rear side of the mounting base 71, preferably the left or right side, to facilitate user pressing; the drive component 77 has a limiting function with the inner wall of the mounting groove to prevent the drive component 77 from disengaging from the mounting groove.

[0036] Preferably, the second elastic element 78 is a compression spring. The compression spring is compressed between the other end of the driving element 77 and the mounting groove wall. During the process of pressing one end of the driving element 77, the compression spring is compressed. When the driving element 77 slides, it pushes the driving part 753 to move through the inner groove wall of the inclined groove 771, thereby driving the sliding element 75 to slide along the first direction. At the same time, the sliding element 75 drives the clearance groove 751 to move so that the clearance groove 751 gradually aligns with the second limiting groove 73, thereby releasing the first frame of the holding element 76, and part of it can fall into the clearance groove 751, thereby unlocking the first frame.

[0037] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 6 to 9 The driving member 77 may have a sloping groove 771, and the driving member 77 is provided with a driving part 753. The driving part 753 may be cylindrical. Preferably, the driving member 77 is provided with at least one sloping groove 771. The sliding member 75 is provided with at least one driving part 753 on one side away from the clearance groove 751. When the driving member 77 slides, the driving part 753 slides along the inner wall of the sloping groove 771 to push the sliding member 75 to slide.

[0038] After assembly, the pressing drive 77 is located at one end outside the mounting base 71, and the other end of the drive 77 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove by a second elastic member 78. The number of second elastic members 78 is unlimited. A drive part 753 is located at one end of an inclined groove 771. During the pressing process, when the drive 77 slides in the mounting groove, it drives the inclined groove 771 to move, so that the inside of the inclined groove 771 pushes the drive part 753 to slide, thereby the drive part 753 moves and drives the sliding member 75 to slide in the first direction. In order to ensure the stability of the second elastic member 78, the other end of the drive 77 is recessed with a groove, and one end of the second elastic member 78 is accommodated in the groove.

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, specifically, the driving member 77 extends along the left-right direction of the mounting base 71, and the sliding direction of the sliding member 75 is set approximately perpendicular to the sliding direction of the driving member 77. The extension direction of the inclined groove 771 is set at an angle to both the sliding direction of the sliding member 75 and the sliding direction of the driving member 77. To ensure that the sliding member 75 does not deviate when sliding, the inner wall of the mounting groove is recessed to form a retaining groove 74. Both ends of the sliding member 75 are respectively slidably accommodated in the retaining groove 74, and the driving member 77 and the inner wall of the mounting groove can be clearance-fitted.

[0040] Refer to 7 and Figure 8 To reduce weight, the external component includes two parallel, spaced-apart sliders 75, each slider 75 being elongated. A drive component 77 simultaneously drives both sliders 75 to slide. Compared to a single, integrated slider 75, this design is lighter and occupies less space. One end of the inclined groove 771 can be open for easy installation, and the drive component 77 can be a rectangular plate with a weight-reduction groove in the middle.

[0041] Reference Figure 9Furthermore, a slider 75 is provided with two spaced-apart driving portions 753, and a driving member 77 is provided with four spaced-apart inclined slots 771, with the four inclined slots 771 extending in the same direction. The two spaced-apart driving portions 753 can be distributed near both ends of the slider 75, and the number can be set according to usage requirements. When the driving member 77 is pressed, the four inclined slots 771 synchronously drive the four driving portions 753 to slide, causing the slider 75 to move.

[0042] Preferably, the clearance groove 751 is formed laterally on the slider 75, and both ends of the clearance groove 751 are open. The slider 75 has two or more clearance grooves 751, one of which is formed at the end of the slider 75. The end clearance groove 752 is composed of an arc-shaped side groove wall and a bottom groove wall. The bottom groove wall of the end clearance groove 752 extends out of the end of the slider 75, simplifying the structure of the slider 75. The arc-shaped side groove wall of the end clearance groove 752 clamps and fixes the top support 76 with the inner groove wall of the mounting groove. Of course, an elastic pad is attached to the top of the mounting base 71 or the surface of the first frame. The elastic pad can be a sponge pad or a silicone pad.

[0043] In summary, the preferred drive member 77 extends out of the side end of the mounting base 71, the drive member 77 extends along the left and right direction of the mounting base 71, the sliding member 75 extends along the up and down direction of the mounting base 71, the top member 76 extends along the left and right direction of the mounting base 71, the second limiting groove 73, the clearance groove 751, and the snap-fit ​​groove 201 all extend along the left and right direction of the mounting base 71, and the external component includes two sliding members 75, each sliding member 75 having two drive parts 753, and the drive member 77 having four inclined grooves 771; After assembly, the clearance groove 751 is offset from the second limiting groove 73, the lower outer surface of all the supporting members 76 abuts against the end face of the sliding member 75, the upper outer surface of all the supporting members 76 protrudes from the surface of the fixing groove 72, and the second elastic member 78 is compressed between the driving member 77 and the inner wall of the mounting groove. The second elastic member 78 is only shown as a cylinder in the figure.

[0044] When the sliding member 75 slides along the first direction, it drives the clearance groove 751 to move so that the clearance groove 751 gradually aligns with the second limiting groove 73 vertically, so that the lower end of the top member 76 can fall into the clearance groove 751, thereby releasing the top member 76 from the first frame. During assembly, as the driving member 77 moves towards the left end of the mounting base 71, the second elastic member 78 is compressed. The four inclined grooves 771 of the driving member 77 push the four driving parts 753 to slide upwards towards the mounting base 71, causing the two sliding members 75 to slide upwards towards the mounting base 71. At the same time, the four clearance grooves 751 gradually enter the front side of the four top holding members 76. When the sliding member 75 slides to the first position, the four clearance grooves 751 are all located directly in front of the four top holding members 76, so that the sliding member 75 releases the four top holding members 76. At this time, as one end of the first frame is slid into the fixing groove 72 from the slot on one side of the fixing groove 72, the surface of the first frame moves along the top holding member 773. The circumferential surface of the first frame slides, causing the surface of the first frame to push the four top holding members 76 into the four second limiting grooves 73. The lower peripheral surface of the top holding member 76 is accommodated in the relief groove 751. When the first frame 200 slides to the position required by the user (which can be called the preset position) and the driving member 77 is released, the second elastic member 78 pushes the driving member 77 to reset. During the reset of the driving member 77, the two sliding members 75 are reset. At the same time, a top holding member 76 slides along the inner wall of a relief groove 751 to the top surface near the top opening of the relief groove 751. The top holding member 76 is gradually inserted into a snap-fit ​​groove 201 until it supports its inner surface, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the first frame.

[0045] During disassembly, press the drive member 77 again to move it to the left end of the mounting base 71. The second elastic member 78 is compressed, and the four inclined grooves 771 of the drive member 77 push the four drive parts 753 to slide towards the upper side of the mounting base 71, so that the two sliding members 75 slide towards the upper side of the mounting base 71. At the same time, the four clearance grooves 751 gradually enter the front of the four top holding members 76. When the sliding member 75 slides to the first position, the four clearance grooves 751 are all located in front of the four top holding members 76, so that the sliding member 75 releases the four top holding members 76, thereby the top holding members 76 lose the holding force on the first frame. At this time, slide the first frame out from the slot on one side of the fixing groove 72 to remove it. After releasing the drive member 77, the sliding member 75 and the top holding member 76 are reset.

[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments, the adjustment assembly further includes a kit 31. The connecting seat 21 has a through hole 24 extending in the vertical direction. The kit 31 is fixed in the through hole 24 and is slidably sleeved on the support rod 30. The kit 31 can be a copper sleeve to reduce wear between the connecting seat 21 and the support rod 30 and increase smoothness. The support rod 30 can be a cylinder.

[0047] In some embodiments, the engaging member 40 is cylindrical or at least its end is cylindrical, the engaging groove 13 is semi-circular, and the other side wall of the slide 12 is flat. The engaging member 40 can be integrally provided with the pressing member 60 or can be provided separately.

[0048] Reference Figures 1 to 4In some embodiments, a plurality of engaging grooves 13 are distributed at equal intervals on the side wall at the front end of the slide 12, and there are two engaging members, which are distributed vertically. The distance between the two engaging members 40 is an integer multiple of the distance between two adjacent engaging grooves 13; and / or the two side walls of the receiving groove 11 are recessed with the slide 12.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments, the connecting assembly 20 further includes an end cap 25, which is fixed to the front end of the connecting seat 21. The pressing member 60 passes through the end cap 25. The front end of the receiving groove 11 is flared. Both sides of the rear end of the end cap 25 are provided with inclined surfaces (not shown). The distance between the two inclined surfaces decreases along the direction close to the connecting seat 21. The two inclined surfaces slide against the two groove sidewalls at the flared end of the receiving groove 11, making the connecting seat 21 more stable during the up and down sliding process and preventing shaking, jamming, etc.

[0050] In summary, after a photographic accessory, such as a camera protective frame, is installed on the mounting base 71 of the external component 70, pressing the pressing member 60 backward compresses the first elastic member 50. At the same time, the pressing member drives the four sides of the two locking members 40 to slide along the two first limiting grooves 23 so that the four ends of the two locking members 40 are disengaged from the four-locking grooves 13, thus unlocking the connecting base 21 and the support rod 30. The kit inside the connecting base 21 slides up and down along the support rod 30 to adjust the position of the connecting base 21 on the handle body. After adjusting to a preset suitable shooting position, the pressing member 60 is released. When the first elastic member 50 drives the pressing member 60 to reset, the pressing member 60 drives the two locking members 40 to reset, so that the ends of the two locking members 40 engage with the locking grooves 13, thereby locking the connecting base 21 onto the support rod 30, thus fixing the connecting base 21 relative to the mounting body 10.

[0051] The present invention also proposes a photography kit, including a handle body and an adjustment component as described above. The handle body and the mounting body 10 are integrally set. The specific structure of the adjustment component is as described in the above embodiments. Since this photography kit adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the technical effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.
