[0039] "Pan head" usually refers to a device used to support and control a video camera or camera so that it can rotate, tilt and move smoothly. In terms of the structure of the pan head, it is usually divided into a flat-top pan head and a bowl-mouth pan head. The bottom of the flat-top pan head is a flat surface, while the bowl-mouth pan head is bowl-shaped with a bowl mouth at the bottom.
[0040] The bowl-mouth gimbal is generally used in hydraulic gimbals and has the function of dynamic lens balance. It is a gimbal commonly used for large cameras and video shooting. The adjustment speed is faster than that of the flat-mouth gimbal. The flat-mouth gimbal is more convenient to use, but its adjustment speed is slower than that of the bowl-mouth gimbal.
[0041] The bowl-shaped gimbals on the market usually come with a conversion accessory to a flat-shaped gimbal, but there are no accessories to convert a flat-shaped gimbal into a bowl-shaped gimbal, which makes it very inconvenient for users.
[0042] The above contents are only used to assist in understanding the technical solution of the present application and do not constitute an admission that the above contents are prior art.
[0043] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model proposes a bowl-mouth pan-tilt converter, which aims to provide a bowl-mouth pan-tilt converter that can convert a flat pan-tilt into a bowl-mouth pan-tilt. Figures 1 to 7 The present invention is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the bowl-shaped pan-tilt converter provided by the present invention.
[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7The utility model proposes a bowl-mouth pan / tilt converter 1000, comprising a quick-release plate 1, a bracket 2 and a bowl body 3, wherein the quick-release plate 1 is formed with a fixing hole, and the fixing hole is used to fix the quick-release plate 1 to a shooting device, the bracket 2 is arranged on the quick-release plate 1, and an installation portion is formed at one end of the bracket 2 away from the quick-release plate 1, the bowl body 3 is arranged at the installation portion, and a bowl mouth is formed on the side of the bowl body 3 facing the quick-release plate 1.
[0045] It should be noted that the mounting portion provided at the end of the bracket 2 away from the quick-release plate 1 can be a bolt or a buckle structure, that is, a corresponding buckle position is provided on the outer periphery of the bowl body 3 so that the bowl body 3 can be connected with the bracket 2 by snapping. The utility model does not limit the specific structure and installation form of the mounting portion. In one embodiment of the utility model, the mounting portion is a first bolt 231. By opening corresponding screw holes on the bracket 2 and the bowl body 3, the first bolt 231 can be used for screwing and fixing. The use of screwing to fix the bowl body 3 and the bracket 2 can achieve the detachability of the components and facilitate maintenance and replacement. If the bowl body 3 or the bracket 2 needs to be maintained or replaced, it is only necessary to unscrew the bolts to release the fixation without destroying other components. The screwing fixation can make the force uniformly transferred to the connecting components, reduce the possibility of local stress concentration, and thus improve the stability and durability of the connection. In addition, the screwing fixation can control the tightening force between the connecting components by adjusting the tightness of the bolts to meet different needs. This adjustability helps to ensure the firmness and stability of the connection.
[0046] Furthermore, the bracket 2 is provided with a plurality of bolts, and the pressure of the bowl body 3 is evenly distributed by the plurality of bolts. In one embodiment of the utility model, three first bolts 231 are used to install and support the bowl body 3. The three first bolts 231 are evenly spaced. By using the three first bolts 231, it can be ensured that the bowl body 3 is fixed in place without shaking or moving, thereby improving the overall stability of the bowl body 3.
[0047] In the technical solution of the utility model, a bowl-mouth gimbal converter 1000 and a car camera stand 2000 are proposed, wherein the bowl-mouth gimbal converter 1000 includes a quick-release plate 1, a bracket 2 and a bowl body 3, the quick-release plate 1 is formed with a fixing hole for mounting the quick-release plate 1 on a shooting device, the bracket 2 is arranged on the quick-release plate 1, and the bowl body 3 is provided at one end of the bracket 2 away from the quick-release plate 1. Since the flat-mouth gimbal is formed with a mounting plane and 12 mounting holes are left, the user can directly install the bowl-mouth gimbal converter 1000 by mounting the quick-release plate 1 on the mounting plane, thereby converting the flat-mouth gimbal into a bowl-mouth gimbal, which improves the user's convenience.
[0048] In order to facilitate the adjustment and installation of the camera equipment on the bowl body 3 and ensure that the installation of the bowl body 3 is more stable, the bracket 2 includes a left support plate 21 and a right support plate 22 respectively arranged on both sides of the quick release plate 1. For details, please refer to Figure 3 The left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are respectively connected to the outer periphery of the bowl body 3 on both sides, and are fixed by the mounting parts thereon. By fixing the two support plates, the overall structure of the converter can be made more reliable and stable, and the camera equipment installed on the bowl body 3 can be kept running smoothly without shaking. In one embodiment of the utility model, the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are arranged to extend vertically along the plane where the quick-release plate 1 is located, and the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 respectively form arc-shaped bending sections 2b, and the arc-shaped bending sections 2b are respectively bent outwards. Such an arrangement can not only play a certain buffering effect on the bowl body 3 installed on the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22, thereby ensuring that the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are not easily deformed or broken when subjected to a large impact load, in addition, because the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are respectively designed to bulge outwards, a larger space is created at the bottom of the bowl body 3, so that it is convenient for users to install camera equipment on the bowl body 3, which plays a role of avoidance.
[0049] In another embodiment of the present invention, the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are both inclined and inclined in the same direction. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some specific usage scenarios, such as a vehicle camera, the camera equipment is fixed to the outside of the vehicle 3000, such as a door, a rear end, a fender, etc., through the vehicle camera bracket 2, and then the camera personnel inside the vehicle 3000 adjusts the camera equipment through the window. However, since the camera equipment is far away from the camera personnel, it may be inconvenient to adjust. To solve this problem, in one embodiment of the utility model, the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 are tilted toward the camera personnel in the vehicle, so that the camera equipment installed through the bowl body 3 can be closer to the camera personnel. Since the bowl body 3 and the quick-release plate 1 are staggered in the vertical direction, the bottom of the bowl mouth of the bowl body 3 is not blocked by the quick-release plate 1, which is more conducive to the camera personnel turning the handle below to achieve adjustment.
[0050] Furthermore, in order to reduce the overall weight of the bracket 2, the left support plate 21 and the right support plate 22 of the bracket 2 are both provided with a hollow portion 2a. For details, please refer to Figure 2 The hollow portion 2a improves the material utilization rate, reduces the burden and reduces the material cost of the bracket 2. Appropriately setting the hollow portion 2a can increase the strength of the bracket 2 to a certain extent. Through structural design, the bracket 2 can be more evenly distributed when bearing force, thereby improving the overall structural stability. For the use scenario of the vehicle camera, the hollow portion 2a can reduce the resistance of the bracket 2 in the air or fluid during the driving of the vehicle 3000, thereby reducing wind resistance or fluid resistance.
[0051] In order to realize the quick installation and quick removal of the bowl-shaped pan-tilt converter 1000, a dovetail mounting portion 13 is provided on the side of the quick-release plate 1 facing away from the bracket 2. For details, please refer to Figure 5 The bowl-shaped pan / tilt converter 1000 is installed through the dovetail mounting part 13 at the bottom of the quick-release plate 1 and the dovetail groove on the tripod or the dovetail groove on the sliding seat 2210 of the car rack 2000, making the installation scenario of the quick-release plate 1 more diversified. It is only necessary to set the dovetail groove on the corresponding structure to achieve fast and reliable installation. The design of the dovetail groove and the dovetail mounting part 13 makes the connection part have good tensile performance, can withstand tension and maintain a stable connection, and is suitable for structures that need to withstand tension. The connection method of the dovetail groove and the dovetail mounting part 13 can also have both practicality and aesthetics. Since the connection method of the dovetail groove and the dovetail mounting part 13 has strong connection performance and stability, it can provide long-term durability.
[0052] It should be noted that, for the installation of the camera pan head, the industry usually adopts standardized installation methods such as the Arca standard and the Manfrotto standard. As for the Arca standard and the Manfrotto standard, the installation methods of the two are different. The adjustable camera is installed by the Manfrotto standard, and the quick release plate 1 of the Arca standard cannot be adjusted. The assembly method of the Arca standard quick release plate 1 is relatively simple and the installation speed is fast. The installation speed of the Manfrotto standard is slow. In addition, the locking effect of the Arca standard quick release plate 1 is better. In this technical solution, the dovetail mounting portion 13 provided at the bottom of the quick release plate 1 can be a dovetail mounting portion 13 using the Arca standard (referred to as the Arca standard dovetail mounting portion 13 in the text), or a dovetail mounting portion 13 using the Manfrotto standard (referred to as the Manfrotto standard dovetail mounting portion 13 in the text). The utility model does not limit this. The user can replace the quick release plate 1 of different standards according to the actual use scenario, thereby expanding the user's use scenario.
[0053] In order to achieve the fixed installation of the quick release plate 1, the quick release plate 1 is provided with a first fixing hole 11a and a second fixing hole 11b. The diameters of the first fixing hole 11a and the second fixing hole 11b are different, wherein the first fixing hole 11a is slightly larger than the second fixing hole 11b. For details, please refer to Figure 5 A first fixing hole 11a with a slightly larger diameter is arranged in the middle position of the quick-release plate 1, and a plurality of second fixing holes 11b with smaller diameters are arranged around the first fixing hole 11a. In one embodiment of the utility model, the first fixing hole 11a is a 3 / 8 screw hole or a 1 / 4 screw hole, and the second fixing holes 11b are adaptively adjusted according to the size of the first fixing hole 11a.
[0054] The utility model also proposes a vehicle-mounted camera stand 2000, which includes two vertical bars 2100, a horizontal bar 2200 and a bowl-shaped pan-tilt converter 1000. The two vertical bars 2100 are arranged at intervals on the outside of the vehicle 3000, and the two ends of the horizontal bar 2200 are movably sleeved on the two vertical bars 2100. The horizontal bar 2200 is provided with a slidable sliding seat 2210, and the bowl-shaped pan-tilt converter 1000 is arranged on the sliding seat 2210. The camera equipment installed on the bowl-shaped pan-tilt converter 1000 can slide horizontally on the horizontal bar 2200 following the sliding seat 2210, and can also slide horizontally on the horizontal bar 2200 following the horizontal seat 2210.
