[0026] Specifically, the hook tips of the inner-buckle quick-release seat face each other, and the hook tips of the outer-buckle quick-release seat face away from each other. Both the inner-buckle quick-release seat and the outer-buckle quick-release seat can be purchased through market channels, and are not elaborated in this embodiment. The most common sports camera on the market that does not have a buckle position is Gopro, which has a bottom groove on its bottom side, and the bottom wall of the bottom groove is provided with screw holes. The inner wall of the plate body 1 refers to a side wall of the plate body 1 facing the bottom wall of the bottom groove when the plate body 1 is installed in the bottom groove, and the outer wall of the plate body 1 refers to a side wall opposite to its inner wall. The mounting hole 2 is a countersunk hole arranged on the outer wall of the plate body 1.

[0027] In one embodiment, a positioning structure that can be connected to an external buckle type quick release seat is provided on the outer wall of the plate body 1. The positioning structure can limit the external buckle type quick release seat so that it cannot move along the surface of the outer wall of the plate body 1 to improve the connection stability (not shown in the drawings).

[0028] In this embodiment, two inner positioning holes 5 and two inner card slots 6 are provided at the left end of the plate body 1. The two inner positioning holes 5 are symmetrically distributed along the width direction of the plate body 1. The inner card slots 6 are arranged one by one with the inner positioning holes 5 so as to be matched with the four-claw quick release seat for connection. When in use, the plate body 1 is first clamped in the bottom groove on the bottom side of the action camera, and the mounting hole 2 is aligned with the screw hole on the bottom wall of the bottom groove, and then the screw of the corresponding specification is passed through the mounting hole 2 and screwed with the screw hole, so that the plate body 1 is fixedly installed in the bottom groove of the camera. When the external device is connected to the inner buckle type quick release seat, the inner buckle type quick release seat The positioning block can be slidably inserted into the outer positioning hole 4, and the hook of the inner buckle quick release seat can be engaged with the outer slot 3, so as to fix the inner buckle quick release seat and the plate body 1. When the external device is connected to the outer buckle quick release seat, the hook of the outer buckle quick release seat can be slidably inserted into the inner positioning hole 5 and engaged with the inner slot 6, so as to fix the outer buckle quick release seat and the plate body 1, so that a sports camera without a buckle position can also be connected to a variety of quick release seats through the sports camera connecting plate, providing more connection methods for the sports camera, improving the compatibility of the sports camera with external devices, and enhancing the user experience.

[0029] Furthermore, the inner positioning hole 5 passes through the inner and outer sides of the plate body 1, and the inner card groove 6 is arranged on the inner side wall of the plate body 1 along the width direction of the plate body 1, and is connected with the inner end opening of the inner positioning hole 5, and the inner card groove 6 is a waist-shaped groove, and the long axis length of the inner card groove 6 is greater than the width of the inner positioning hole 5.

[0030] Specifically, in order to improve the connection stability between the inner wall of the inner positioning hole 5 and the hook of the external snap-on quick-release seat and prevent the hook of the external snap-on quick-release seat from loosening in the width direction of the plate body 1, the width of the inner positioning hole 5 is usually close to the width of the hook. If the major axis length of the inner slot 6 is close to the width of the inner positioning hole 5, it is easy to cause the two sides of the hook tip to be tightly attached to the two end walls of the inner slot 6. The two end walls of the inner slot 6 will hinder the hook from detaching from the inner slot 6. Therefore, the major axis length of the inner slot 6 is designed to be greater than the width of the inner positioning hole 5, which can avoid the two end walls of the inner slot 6 interfering with the detachment of the hook and reduce the difficulty of disassembling the external snap-on quick-release seat.

[0031] Furthermore, the outer opening edge of the inner positioning hole 5 is provided with a chamfer 51, and the hook of the external buckle type quick release seat can be slid along the chamfer 51 and inserted into the inner positioning hole 5 to prevent the outer opening edge of the inner positioning hole 5 from interfering with the insertion of the hook.

[0032] Furthermore, a transition slope 7 is provided at the intersection of the left end face of the plate body 1 and the inner side wall, and the outer positioning hole 4 is located at the transition slope 7. When in use, the inner buckle quick release seat hook can be moved toward the plate body 1. When the hook of the inner buckle quick release seat abuts against the transition slope 7, its hook tip will slide along the transition slope 7, and the hook will adaptively swing elastically until the hook tip slides away from the transition slope 7 to the end of the plate body 1. At this time, the hook elastically resets and swings, so that its hook tip is engaged with the outer slot 3, so that the transition slope 7 is used to make the hook of the inner buckle quick release seat smoothly transition and engage with the outer slot 3, thereby improving the convenience of the engagement operation.

[0033] Furthermore, a positioning magnet 8 is provided in the plate body 1 .

[0034] Furthermore, two positioning magnets 8 are provided and are spaced apart along the length direction of the plate body 1 .

[0035] In this embodiment, both the external quick release seat and the internal quick release seat are equipped with built-in magnetic elements. When the quick release seat is close to the plate body 1, the magnetic elements can be attracted by the positioning magnets 8 to assist in positioning the quick release seat and improve the connection stability between the quick release seat and the plate body 1.

[0036] Furthermore, a receiving cavity 11 is provided on the inner side wall of the plate body 1 , and the positioning magnet 8 is disposed in the receiving cavity 11 to facilitate the installation of the positioning magnet 8 .

[0037] Furthermore, a protrusion is formed in the middle of the inner wall of the plate body 1 to form a snap-fitting portion 12, and the mounting hole 2 and the accommodating cavity 11 are both located at the snap-fitting portion 12. A groove is provided on the bottom wall of the corresponding sports camera bottom groove, and the snap-fitting portion 12 can be snapped into the groove to assist in positioning and installing the plate body 1, thereby reducing the difficulty of aligning the mounting hole 2 with the screw hole and improving the installation efficiency of the sports camera connecting plate.

[0038] Furthermore, avoidance notches 9 are provided at the intersection of the front end face of the plate body 1 and the outer wall, and at the intersection of the rear end face of the plate body 1 and the outer wall. When the quick-release seat is adsorbed on the outer wall of the plate body 1, due to the strong adsorption force, it is usually difficult to remove it from the plate body 1 by simply pinching the side wall of the quick-release seat. At this time, the user can insert his fingernails into the avoidance notch 9, so that the fingernails can exert force on the inner wall of the quick-release seat to pry the quick-release seat to remove it, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the quick-release seat.

[0039] Furthermore, a threaded hole 13 is provided in the middle of the plate body, which passes through the inner and outer sides thereof, so that the screw at the end of the bracket can be directly screwed into the threaded hole 13, so that the plate body is fixedly connected to the end of the bracket, further expanding the connection method of the action camera.

[0040] Specifically, four mounting holes 2 are provided, and the four mounting holes 2 are distributed along the edge of the top wall of the clamping portion 12 , and the mounting holes 2 correspond one-to-one to the screw holes of the bottom groove of the action camera.
