[0034] At present, detachable cold shoe mounts are widely used in video live broadcasting and other fields. Cold shoe mounts can be connected to photography auxiliary accessories such as microphones, flashlights, mobile phone holders, etc. In the prior art, the cold shoe slot of the cold shoe mount is generally connected to the cold shoe connector, but this connection method is easy to loosen or detach, affecting the normal use of photographic equipment.
[0035] In view of the technical problems existing in the prior art, the utility model proposes a cold shoe modular clamping structure, in which the cold shoe seat is provided with a rotatable limit member, namely a lever. When the cold shoe connector is inserted into the cold shoe slot of the cold shoe seat, the convex portion of the limit member can be clamped in the groove provided in the cold shoe connector to achieve fixation. When it needs to be removed, the limit member can be pushed to make the convex portion disengage from the groove. The structure is convenient for loading and unloading and has a simple structure.
[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The cold shoe modular clamping structure provided by the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model includes a cold shoe seat 100, a limiting member 300, an elastic member 400 and a cold shoe connector 500. The cold shoe seat 100 is provided with a cold shoe slot 200, which is arranged in the horizontal direction. The cold shoe slot 200 does not completely penetrate the cold shoe seat 100, and one end of the cold shoe slot 200 is in a closed state. The closed end is used for limiting. For example, after the cold shoe connector 500 is inserted into the cold shoe slot 200, the closed end will support the cold shoe connector 500 and limit the cold shoe connector 500.
[0037] It should be noted that the stopper 300 is rotatably disposed on the cold shoe seat 100, and a convex portion 310 is disposed at the end of the stopper 300. The convex portion 310 of the stopper 300 is an arc-shaped convex structure, which facilitates the convex portion 310 to be clamped into the cold shoe joint 500 when the stopper 300 rotates. The elastic member 400 is disposed on the stopper 300, and the elastic member 400 can be a structure that releases stress by twisting, or a structure that releases stress by stretching, such as Figures 1 to 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the elastic member 400 is a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the pin, one end of which is disposed on the stopper 300, and the other end of which abuts against the inner wall of the mounting hole 240. The cold shoe connector 500 is slidably inserted in the cold shoe slot 200, and the cold shoe connector 500 is provided with a groove 510, which is used to guide the sliding of the cold shoe connector 500.
[0038] It is understandable that the stopper 300 can be rotated to a first position and a second position. When the stopper 300 is in the first position, that is, after the cold shoe connector 500 is inserted into the cold shoe slot 200 and locked, the protrusion 310 is clamped in the groove 510 to lock the cold shoe connector 500; when the stopper 300 is in the second position, that is, after the cold shoe connector 500 contacts the stopper 300 and is locked, the protrusion 310 is disengaged from the groove 510, and the cold shoe connector 500 can be removed from the cold shoe seat 100. External force needs to be applied to move the stopper 300 to the second position. When the external force is removed, the elastic member 400 can restore the stopper 300 from the second position to the first position.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The cold shoe slot 200 is provided with a guide portion 230, which is a convex block arranged transversely. The cold shoe connector 500 is provided with a guide groove 520, which is also arranged transversely. The guide portion 230 can be inserted into the guide groove 520 and guide the movement of the cold shoe connector 500. The cold shoe slot 200 is provided with a mounting hole 240, and the limiting member 300 is rotatably arranged in the mounting hole 240 through a pin. The limiting member 300 is also provided with a limiting portion 320, which is used to limit the limiting member 300 so that the limiting member 300 is fixed in the first position. The limiting portion 320 is an arc-shaped convex structure.
[0040] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, both ends of the cold shoe slot 200 are closed, the cold shoe connector 500 can be inserted into the cold shoe slot 200 from top to bottom, and then the limiter 300 locks the cold shoe connector 500. The guide portion 230 is a vertically arranged protrusion, and the guide slot 520 is also vertically arranged.
[0041] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The limiting member 300 is provided with a circular mounting platform 330 , the pin passes through the circular mounting platform 330 , and the torsion spring is mounted on the circular mounting platform 330 .
[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 One end of the cold shoe slot 200 along the first direction is a first notch 210, and one end of the cold shoe slot 200 along the second direction is provided with a second notch 220. The second direction is the length direction of the cold shoe slot 200. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The guide portion 230 is arranged along the second direction and is located at the first notch 210. The guide groove 520 of the cold shoe joint 500 is arranged along the second direction, and the cold shoe joint 500 can be inserted into the cold shoe slot 200 from the second notch 220.
[0043] It should be noted that the inner wall of one side of the guide groove 520 is an inclined surface, and such a design makes it easier for the cold shoe connector 500 to be inserted into the cold shoe groove 200 .
[0044] It should be noted that a boss 340 is provided at one end of the stopper 300 away from the convex portion 310, and a smoothly transitioning slope is provided between the boss 340 and the stopper 300. The cold shoe mount 100 is provided with a mounting bolt, and adhesive is applied between the cold shoe mount 100 and the mounting bolt, and the cold shoe mount 100 can be mounted on the photographic accessory through the mounting bolt. The cold shoe connector 500 is connected to a bracket 600, and the bracket 600 is used to mount the photographic accessory.
[0045] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
