Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sports camera accessories, in particular to a camera connector, a frame connector and a quick-disassembly and quick-assembly device. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the standard for connecting cameras to camera mounts is to use an industry-standard threaded locking mechanism. However, this method is inconvenient because it takes a lot of time to remove the camera from the mount when changing shooting positions.

[0003] Furthermore, users are increasingly using action cameras for portable, mobile filming, and multi-angle shooting during exercise. This requires frequent disassembly of the camera for handheld or fixed shooting positions. Using a threaded locking mechanism to securely connect the camera consumes significant user time, potentially leading to missed moments. Furthermore, when filming during intense exercise or in harsh environments, disassembling the camera can be time-consuming and distracting, posing a significant potential safety risk.

[0004] In the field of outdoor sports self-media, action cameras are essential for filming, and they are also very expensive. To save filming costs and promote the sports effects of selfies, outdoor sports self-media often take selfies while exercising, or they change angles to capture the dynamic surroundings while exercising. If the camera connection is unstable, it is easy to fall during intense exercise, causing significant losses to the user. Therefore, choosing a camera that can be efficiently disassembled and has a high-stability connection to the camera stand in sports environments has become a pain point for outdoor sports self-media.

The boss 101 can quickly slide into the groove 21 through the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic part of the camera connector 100 and the second magnetic part of the frame connector 200. The sliding time is only about 1 second. While pressing the joint part of the boss 101 and the groove 21, the locking part 222 of the frame connector 200 is forced to bounce open by the force of the boss 101 sliding into the groove 21. After the boss 101 completely slides into the groove 21, the locking part 222 returns to its normal state, and the boss 101 is locked and positioned, thereby realizing the quick installation and fixed connection between the camera connector 100 and the frame connector 200.

[0090] When realizing the quick release of the frame connector 200 and the camera connector 100, an external force needs to be applied to the push switch 221. After the push switch 221 of the frame connector 200 is subjected to the external force, the locking portion 222 linked to the push switch 221 is driven by the push switch 221, and the locking portion 222 is in the open state. Then the user applies an external force to the camera connector 200 or the camera connected to the camera connector 100 to counteract the magnetic attraction force between the camera connector 100 and the frame connector 200, forcing the boss 101 and the groove 21 to separate, thereby realizing the separation of the frame connector 200 from the camera connector 100, that is, completing the quick release of the camera connector 100 and the frame connector 200, achieving the effect of quick disassembly.

[0091] In order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a quick-disconnect and quick-install device, comprising any of the above-mentioned camera connectors 100 and any of the above-mentioned rack connectors 200.

[0092] The embodiment of the present invention provides a camera connector 100, which includes a fixed base plate 10, and the fixed base plate 10 is provided with a first magnetic member, a boss 101, a first fixing mechanism 102 and a positioning groove 103. The camera connector 100 is fixedly connected to the camera through the first fixing mechanism 102; the boss 101 is connected to the first magnetic member, and the boss 101 is magnetically connected to the groove 21 of the frame connector 200 by the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic member, so as to realize quick disassembly and quick assembly of the frame connector 200 by magnetic attraction; the positioning groove 103 matches the shape of the locking portion 222 of the frame connector 200 to realize the fixed connection of the frame connector 200 to the camera connector 100 Function: When the camera connector 100 is connected to the frame connector 200, the frame connector 200 fixes the camera connector 100 through the matching connection between the locking portion 222 and the positioning groove 103; the upper plate surface of the fixed base plate 10 is used to support the camera, and the boss 101 is arranged on the lower plate surface of the fixed base plate 10. Two first magnetic members are arranged on the upper part of the lower plate surface of the fixed base plate 10, and the upper plate surface of the fixed base plate 10 is provided with the first fixing mechanism 102. The two first magnetic members are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the first fixing mechanism 102. The fixed base plate 10 is a rectangular fixed base plate 10, and the two short sides of the upper plate surface of the rectangular fixed base plate 10 are respectively provided with a positioning groove 103. The camera connector 100, frame connector 200, and quick-release and quick-installation device disclosed in the present invention achieve quick-release and quick-installation of the camera through the magnetic quick-release and quick-installation of the camera connector 100 and the frame connector 200. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​connection structure of the regularly shaped boss 101 in the camera connector 100 and the regularly shaped groove 21 in the frame connector 200 provided by the present invention improves the quick-release and quick-installation efficiency of the quick-release and quick-installation device. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​connection structure of the rectangular boss 101 in the camera connector 100 and the rectangular groove 21 in the frame connector 200 improves the stability of the camera connection to the camera stand in a sports environment, avoiding the instability of the camera during sports photography, thereby improving the photographer's concentration and reducing the safety risk of the camera falling and the sports safety risk caused by the photographer's distraction in a sports environment.
