[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this embodiment provides a connection accessory 100, including a connection body 110, a first connecting rod 120 and a second connecting rod 130;
[0039] The first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130 are both connected to the connecting body 110, and the first connecting rod 120 is parallel to the second connecting rod 130, and at least one of the first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130 can slide relative to the connecting body 110;
[0040] The first connecting rod 120 is used to connect with the Steadicam body, and the second connecting rod 130 is used to connect with the shock absorbing arm.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the working principle of the connection accessory 100 is:
[0042] First, the connecting accessory 100 is applied to a Steadicam camera device, which includes a Steadicam body, a shock absorber arm and the above-mentioned connecting accessory 100; wherein the Steadicam body is used for shooting, and the shock absorber arm is connected to the operator's body, and the Steadicam body is connected to the first connecting rod 120, and the shock absorber arm is connected to the second connecting rod 130; therefore, when encountering some shooting that requires special angles and the lifting range of the Steadicam is limited by the shock absorber arm, the connecting accessory 100 can be set to make the first connecting rod 120 or the second connecting rod 130 slide relative to the connecting body 110. Therefore, when the connecting accessory 100 is used for the Steadicam camera device, it can expand the lifting range of the Steadicam, so that when dealing with some shooting scenes that require special angles, the camera can reach a lower angle, thereby reducing the difficulty of shooting, and the connecting accessory 100 has a simple structure, is easy to use, and has low use cost.
[0043] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 In this embodiment, the first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130 are slidably matched with the connecting body 110. Therefore, the connecting body 110 is provided with a first connecting hole 111 and a second connecting hole 112. The first connecting rod 120 is slidably matched with the first connecting hole 111, and the second connecting rod 130 is slidably matched with the second connecting hole 112.
[0044] The connecting accessory 100 also includes a first limit member 140 and a second limit member 150 connected to the connecting body 110. The first limit member 140 is used to limit the sliding of the first connecting rod 120 relative to the first connecting hole 111, and the second limit member 150 is used to limit the sliding of the second connecting rod 130 relative to the second connecting hole 112.
[0045] Therefore, during use, the sliding state of the first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130 relative to the connecting body 110 can be adjusted respectively by the first limiting member 140 and the second limiting member 150, so that the height can be adjusted by one or both of the first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130, thereby expanding the height adjustment range, thereby expanding the height adjustment range of the Steadicam body to meet the needs of more shooting scenes.
[0046] To facilitate the installation of the first stopper 140 and the second stopper 150, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4In this embodiment, a first limiting hole 113 and a second limiting hole 114 are provided in the connecting body 110. The first limiting hole 113 is connected to the first connecting hole 111, and the second limiting hole 114 is connected to the second connecting hole 112.
[0047] The first connecting rod 120 is provided with a plurality of first limiting portions 121 along its extension direction, and the first limiting member 140 is used to cooperate with one of the first limiting portions 121 ; the second connecting rod 130 is provided with a plurality of second limiting portions 131 along its extension direction, and the second limiting member 150 is used to cooperate with one of the second limiting portions 131 .
[0048] Therefore, through the above-mentioned structural setting, during use, by operating the first limiting member 140, the first limiting member 140 is disengaged from all the first limiting portions 121, so that the first connecting rod 120 can be in a state where it can slide relative to the first connecting hole 111, and by operating the first limiting member 140 to make it cooperate with one of the first limiting portions 121, the sliding of the first connecting rod 120 relative to the first connecting hole 111 can be limited, so that when it is adjusted to an appropriate height, its height can be maintained; similarly, by operating the second limiting member 150, the second limiting member 150 is disengaged from all the second limiting portions 131, so that the second connecting rod 130 can be in a state where it can slide relative to the second connecting hole 112, and by operating the second limiting member 150 to make it cooperate with one of the second limiting portions 131, the sliding of the second connecting rod 130 relative to the second connecting hole 112 can be limited, so that when it is adjusted to an appropriate height, its height can be maintained.
[0049] In addition, when configuring the first limiting portion 121, the present embodiment adopts a method in which the first limiting portion 121 is a first positioning hole opened in the first connecting rod 120, and the second limiting portion 131 is a second positioning hole opened in the second connecting rod 130. Thus, the cooperation between the first limiting member 140 and the first positioning hole is a plug-in cooperation, and the cooperation between the second limiting member 150 and the second positioning hole is also a plug-in cooperation, so as to maintain stability during use in this way.
[0050] In order to prevent the first limiting member 140 from being disengaged from the first positioning hole and the second limiting member 150 from being disengaged from the second positioning hole, the axial direction of the first limiting hole 113 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the first connecting hole 111, and the axial direction of the second limiting hole 114 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the second connecting hole 112. The purpose of this method is to keep the first connecting rod 120 and the second connecting rod 130 respectively restricted from sliding by the first limiting member 140 and the second limiting member 150 under the action of gravity of the Steadicam body.
[0051] On the basis of the structure with the first stopper 140 and the second stopper 150, in order to make the overall structure of the connection accessory 100 more beautiful and to guide the sliding of the first stopper 140 and the second stopper 150 relative to the connection body 110, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 The connecting body 110 is provided with a first slide groove 115 and a second slide groove 116; the portion of the first limiting member 140 located outside the first connecting hole 111 is slidably matched with the first slide groove 115; the portion of the second limiting member 150 located outside the second connecting hole 112 is slidably matched with the second slide groove 116.
[0052] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 In this embodiment, in order to reduce the structural volume and weight of the connection body 110, the connection body 110 is provided with a rectangular window 117. On this basis, the first slide groove 115 and the second slide groove 116 can be located on opposite sides of the rectangular window 117, so as to avoid interference between the operation of the first stopper 140 and the operation of the second stopper 150;
[0053] In order to enable the first limiting member 140 to maintain a state of being matched with one of the first positioning holes during use, and to enable the second limiting member 150 to maintain a state of being matched with one of the second positioning holes during use, the connecting accessory 100 also includes a first elastic member 160 and a second elastic member 170; the first elastic member 160 is arranged in the first slide groove 115 and abuts against the first limiting member 140, so that the first limiting member 140 has a tendency to slide toward the direction of the first connecting hole 111; the second elastic member 170 is arranged in the second slide groove 116 and abuts against the second limiting member 150, so that the second limiting member 150 has a tendency to slide toward the direction of the second connecting hole 112. Based on this, when the first limiting member 140 is disengaged from the first positioning hole, it is necessary to operate the first limiting member 140 to overcome the elastic force of the first elastic member 160, and when the second limiting member 150 is disengaged from the second positioning hole, it is necessary to operate the second limiting member 150 to overcome the elastic force of the second elastic member 170.
[0054] Based on the above structure settings, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4In order to facilitate the operation of the first limiting member 140 and the second limiting member 150, the first limiting member 140 is a first limiting pin 141, the second limiting member 150 is a second limiting pin 151, and the first limiting pin 141 is provided with a first operating handle 142 at one end outside the first connecting hole 111, and the second limiting pin 151 is provided with a second operating handle 152 at one end outside the second connecting hole 112; wherein, a portion of the first operating handle 142 protrudes out of the first sliding groove 115 for user operation convenience, and a portion of the second operating handle 152 protrudes out of the second sliding groove 116 for user operation convenience.
[0055] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
