AI Technical Summary
The connecting arms of the existing selfie stick are prone to instantaneous weight loss when rotating, and may damage the clamped mobile phone or other electronic devices.
A connecting arm locking structure is designed to provide a damping effect by providing a spring between the screw and the nut, preventing the connecting arm from suddenly losing weight when adjusting the angle. The structure includes a support seat, a boss with a through hole, screws, nuts and springs. The screws are connected to the nuts through the through holes. The spring compresses when tightened, releases tension during adjustment, and increases damping effect.
Effectively prevent the connecting arm from suddenly losing weight when adjusting the angle, improving the convenience and safety of user operation and ensuring the stability of the equipment.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of selfie sticks, in particular to a connecting arm locking structure and a selfie stick using the structure. Background Art
[0002] Compared with traditional selfie sticks, existing selfie sticks have more powerful functions; one of them is to add a rotatable connecting arm on the original telescopic rod body, and then add components such as a gimbal on the connecting arm to make it more rotatable to achieve 360° shooting without blind spots. At present, the connecting arms of most selfie sticks on the market are connected to the telescopic rod body through screws and nuts. The problem is that when rotating the connecting arm, the screws need to be loosened, and then tightened after adjusting the shooting angle. During this period, the connecting arm is prone to instant weightlessness and fall down, which may damage the clamped mobile phone or other electronic devices. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, a connecting arm locking structure and a selfie stick using the structure are proposed, which increase the damping during the adjustment process of the connecting arm and make the user operation more convenient and relaxed.
[0004] A connecting arm locking structure, comprising:
[0005] A support base, the lower end of which is used to be connected to the telescopic rod of the selfie stick; the upper end of which is a boss with a through hole;
[0006] A matching screw and nut, wherein one end of the screw is provided with an adjustment position, and the adjustment position is used to screw the screw; or one end of the nut is provided with an adjustment position, and the adjustment position is used to screw the nut;
[0007] A spring, wherein the spring is sleeved on the screw;
[0008] The screw is connected with the nut after passing through the through hole, so that the adjustment position and the nut are both located outside the boss, and a gap for installing the connecting arm is left between the adjustment position and the boss, and between the nut and the boss.
[0009] A selfie stick, comprising a telescopic rod, a connecting arm, a clamping platform and the connecting arm locking structure as described above; wherein:
[0010] The support base of the connecting arm locking structure is connected to the telescopic rod; one end of the connecting arm is connected to the clamping platform, and the other end of the connecting arm is connected to the boss on the support base through the screw and nut;
[0011] When the screw or nut is turned, the spring has a damping effect on the connecting arm.
[0012] The connecting arm locking structure and selfie stick provided by the utility model are provided with a spring between the screw and the nut, and the spring is compressed when the screw and the nut are tightened; and the tension is released when the screw and the nut are loosened (when adjusting the rotation angle of the connecting arm), thereby increasing the damping effect during the period and preventing the connecting arm from instantly losing weight and falling down, so that the user has a better operating feeling and the adjustment is more convenient and relaxed.

[0022] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0023] Provide a connecting arm locking structure, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, including:
[0024] A support base 1, the lower end of which is used to connect with the telescopic rod of the selfie stick; the upper end of the support base is a boss 11 with a through hole 12;
[0025] A matching screw 2 and nut 3, one end of the screw is provided with an adjustment position, the adjustment position is used to screw the screw; or one end of the nut is provided with an adjustment position 4, the adjustment position is used to screw the nut;
[0026] Spring 5, the spring is sleeved on the screw;
[0027] The screw is connected with the nut after passing through the through hole, so that the adjustment position and the nut are both located outside the boss, and a gap for installing the connecting arm is left between the adjustment position and the boss, and between the nut and the boss.
[0028] During use, the connecting arm is assembled on the boss and fixed to the boss by tightening the screws and nuts. At this time, the spring is in a compressed state. When the angle of the connecting arm needs to be adjusted, the screws or nuts are loosened at the adjustment position. The spring releases the tension step by step, so that the connecting arm does not instantly lose weight and fall down due to the loosening of the screws or nuts (the user screws too fast). The operation feels smoother than the traditional solution.
[0029] Furthermore, the adjustment position can be flexibly set, for example, the adjustment position is a rotating piece 4 protruding from the end face of the screw, and the user can twist the screw or nut by pinching the rotating piece with his fingers. Alternatively, the adjustment position is set as a gear button, that is, one end of the screw or nut is in the shape of a circular gear, which is convenient for the user to pinch with his fingers.
[0030] Furthermore, the upper top of the boss is in the shape of an arc top with the axis of the screw as the center, and this structure facilitates the matching of the connection of the connecting arm and better rotation.
[0031] Furthermore, a limiting step 13 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the boss parallel to the screw, and the limiting step is used to limit the downward bending angle of the connecting arm when it rotates toward the limiting step side. It can be understood that in order to prevent the connecting arm from being lower than the horizontal plane of the support seat when rotating to one side, the limiting step can be used to support the connecting arm.
[0032] A selfie stick comprises a telescopic rod, a connecting arm 6, a clamping platform 7 and the above-mentioned connecting arm locking structure; a support base of the connecting arm locking structure is connected to the telescopic rod; one end of the connecting arm is connected to the clamping platform, and the other end of the connecting arm is connected to the boss on the support base through a screw and a nut. The clamping platform is used to clamp a mobile phone. The upper end of the telescopic rod is connected to the lower end of the support base, and the lower end of the telescopic rod is a handle.
[0033] Furthermore, two mounting feet 61 are provided at one end of the connecting arm, a gap matching the boss is left between the two mounting feet, and a mounting hole 62 is provided on each mounting foot; when the connecting arm is connected to the boss on the support seat through screws and nuts, the boss is located between the two mounting feet, and the screw passes through the mounting hole.
[0034] The above is an explanation of the locking structure of the connecting arm of the present invention and the selfie stick using the same, which is used to help understand the present invention; however, the implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the principles of the present invention shall be equivalent replacement methods and shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
