[0021] The locking knob 3 includes a knob 31 and a knob shaft 32 extending from the knob 31, the fastener 6 is sleeved on the side of the knob shaft 32 away from the knob 31, the first locking member 4 and the second locking member 5 are both sleeved on the knob shaft 32; a locking bolt 15 is also sleeved on the knob shaft 32, and the locking bolt 15 is arranged in the second locking member 5.
[0022] The angle adjustment unit includes a pan-tilt connection seat 9, and a pitch rotation adjustment member 10 that can rotate 180° is extended from the bottom of the pan-tilt connection seat 9; specifically, the two sides of the pitch rotation adjustment member 10 are respectively connected to the pipe joint 2 through the first locking member 4 and the second locking member 5, and the pitch fixing plate 7 is arranged on the two side walls of the pitch rotation adjustment member 10, and the pitch fixing plate 7 is provided with a groove 71 that cooperates with the pitch fixing member 8.
[0023] The gimbal connecting seat 9 is provided with a horizontal rotation adjustment piece 11 which can rotate horizontally 360°, and a quick-release piece 12 for fixing the camera is fixedly provided at the center of the horizontal rotation adjustment piece 11; specifically, a quick-release piece seat 13 which cooperates with the inner wall of the horizontal rotation adjustment piece 11 and is gear-connected, one end of the quick-release piece 12 is sleeved and fixed in the quick-release piece seat 13, and the other end of the quick-release piece 12 extends out from the top of the gimbal connecting seat 9.
[0024] A rubber gasket 14 is provided on the top of the pan / tilt connection seat 9, and the rubber gasket 14 is used to prevent the bottom of the camera from sliding after being fixed.
[0025] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the bottom of the camera is fixed on the quick-install part 12, and the bottom of the camera is in contact with the rubber gasket 14 to prevent the camera from sliding. According to the actual working conditions and the shooting angle that needs to be adjusted, the pan-tilt connecting seat 9 is tilted forward and backward, that is, the pitch rotation adjustment member 10 is rotated forward and backward around the knob shaft 32 with the knob shaft 32 as the center, that is, the pitch rotation. The camera connected to the quick-install part 12 and the pan-tilt connecting seat 9 are synchronously rotated in pitch. During the rotation process, the pitch fixing member 8 is clamped in different grooves 71 on the pitch fixing plate 7 until it is rotated to a suitable angle. The pitch fixing member 8 cooperates with the groove 71 to achieve the pitch fixation of the pan-tilt connecting seat 9, and then the knob shaft 31 is screwed to rotate. 2 ends are locked and fixed with the fastener 6. During the process of locking the knob 31 and the fastener 6 through the knob shaft 32, the knob 31 and the fastener 6 respectively press the first locking member 4 and the second locking member 5 inward, so that the first locking member 4 and the second locking member 5 both press the pitch rotation adjustment member 10 inward. The pitch rotation adjustment member 10 is locked and fixed by the squeezing force applied by the first locking member 4 and the second locking member 5 to the pitch rotation adjustment member 10, thereby strengthening the pitch locking and fixing of the gimbal connecting seat 9. Then, by horizontally toggling the horizontal rotation adjustment member 11, the camera connected to the quick-install member 12 is horizontally rotated around the quick-install member 12 with the quick-install member 12 as the axis until it is adjusted to the angle desired by the user. The adjustable horizontal rotation angle of the camera is a range of 360° rotation around the quick-release part 12 with the quick-release part 12 as the central axis, and the adjustable pitch rotation angle of the camera is a range of 180° rotation forward or backward around the knob shaft 32 with the gimbal connecting seat 9 vertical as the original state.
[0026] The advantages of the present invention are as follows: through the locking effect of the locking unit on the angle adjustment unit, coupled with the cooperation of the pitch fixing plate 7 and the pitch fixing piece 8, the camera is fixed on the pan head during rotation, thereby avoiding problems such as camera falling or lens shaking due to improper fixation, improving the stability of the pan head, improving the quality of the final camera film effect, and improving the user experience.
