Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0035] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0036] Nowadays, electronic photographing equipment (mobile phones, tablets, cameras, etc.) has become an indispensable tool in people's daily life. With the advancement of wireless communication technology, electronic photographing equipment is also developing towards diversification. As a commonly used auxiliary device for outdoor shooting, people can first install the electronic photographing equipment on the photographing equipment, and then hold the photographing equipment to perform shooting operations. Users sometimes use the microphone function to obtain clearer sound records during shooting, video recording, and photography. The microphone includes a transmitter and a receiver. The existing microphones on the market are independent of the photographing equipment and the electronic photographing equipment. Therefore, when users use the photographing equipment and the electronic photographing equipment to cooperate with each other for shooting operations, they need to configure an additional microphone to obtain the microphone function during the shooting process.
[0037] refer to Figure 1 The present application provides a shooting aid 10 with a built-in microphone function, which is convenient for users to use the microphone function to record the sound during the shooting process anytime and anywhere during the shooting process using the shooting aid 10, including but not limited to the sound of the shooting environment and the sound made by the user himself. The shooting aid 10 includes a connected adapter structure 100 and a handle 200. The adapter structure 100 is used to install and support shooting equipment, and the shooting equipment includes but is not limited to mobile phones, cameras, and tablets; the handle 20 is for the user to hold, so the shooting aid 10 enables the user to indirectly hold the shooting equipment for shooting operations. Taking a mobile phone as an example, in this embodiment, the adapter structure 100 includes a mobile phone clamp 110, and the mobile phone clamp 110 clamps and supports the mobile phone and is rotatably connected to the handle 20. When the mobile phone clamp 110 rotates relative to the handle 20, the shooting angle of the mobile phone can be adjusted. It should be understood that the mobile phone clamp 110 is only a specific implementation method for realizing the installation and support of the mobile phone. In other embodiments, the mobile phone clamp 110 can be other installation devices such as a quick-turn seat and a magnetic seat for installing and supporting the mobile phone.
[0038] Combined with reference Figures 2 to 4The shooting aid 10 further includes a microphone transmitter 310, a microphone receiver 320, a control mainboard 400, a battery assembly 500, and a data interface 600. The microphone transmitter 310 is accommodated in the handle 200 and can be taken out and separated from the handle 200. The microphone transmitter 310 is built into the handle 200 and is wirelessly connected to the microphone receiver 320 via Bluetooth, and radio signal transmission is achieved between the two. The control mainboard 400 is built into the handle 200 and is electrically connected to the microphone receiver 320. The battery assembly 50 is built into the handle 200 and is electrically connected to the control mainboard 400. The data interface 600 is penetrated through the housing of the handle 200. One end of the data interface 600 is electrically connected to the microphone receiver 320, and the other end is used to be electrically connected to the shooting device. In this embodiment, the microphone receiver 320 is a program unit directly integrated on the control mainboard 400. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the microphone receiver 320 can exist independently of the control mainboard 400.
[0039] In the present application, the microphone transmitter 310 transmits the sound radio signal of the user or the environment to the microphone receiver 320, and the microphone receiver 320 then transmits it to the shooting device through a wired electrical signal, so that the shooting device collects and stores the sound recorded by the microphone transmitter 310, thereby realizing the use of the built-in microphone function of the shooting aid 10 during the shooting process. In the present embodiment, the data interface 600 includes but is not limited to a USB interface or a Type-c interface. The interface type is determined by the connectors at both ends of the connecting wire. The USB interface or the Type-c interface is electrically connected to the shooting device through a conductive wire, so it is necessary to prepare an adapted data conductive wire. Of course, when the mobile phone clamp holds the mobile phone, the data interface set on the mobile phone clamp can also realize the electrical connection between the data interface and the mobile phone at the same time. For example, the data interface set on the mobile phone clamp is a data plug. When the mobile phone is installed on the mobile phone clamp, the data interface of the mobile phone is aligned with the data plug, and the data plug is just inserted into the data interface of the mobile phone. The above method of realizing electrical connection at the same time can also be applied to any kind of adapter structure. In the present application, the specific structural form of the adapter structure 100 is not limited. It should be understood that, in other embodiments, the shooting aid 10 includes a conductive wire, one end of which passes through the handle 200 and is electrically connected to the control motherboard 400 and the microphone receiver 320, and the other end of the conductive wire is a data interface 600 (connector), which is directly plugged into the interface of the shooting device to achieve electrical connection.
[0040] Combined with reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The handle 200 includes a flip cover 210 and a main body 220 that are rotatably connected. The main body 220 is concavely formed with a receiving groove 230. The flip cover 210 can rotate relative to the main body 220 to cover and close the receiving groove 230 (such as Figure 1 as shown) or opening the receiving slot 230 (as shown Figure 2 or Figure 3 shown). Figure 2 It is shown that the microphone transmitter 310 is fixedly received in the receiving groove 230 , and the microphone receiver 320 is placed in the main body 220 . Figure 3 It is shown that the microphone transmitter 310 can be taken out from the receiving slot 230 and separated from the main body 210. It should be understood that in the present application, the existence of the flip cover 210 is not limited. In other embodiments, a card slot can be opened on the handle 200 to form the receiving slot 230, and the microphone transmitter 310 is embedded in the card slot and received by the handle 200. Therefore, the present application only needs to meet the requirement that the microphone transmitter 310 can be received in the handle 200.
[0041] Specifically, in conjunction with reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 The flip cover 210 has a relative rotating end 211 and a snap-fit end 212. The rotating end 212 is rotatably connected to one side of the main body 220, and the snap-fit end 212 is snap-fitted to the other opposite side of the main body 220. In addition, in order to facilitate the user to open the flip cover 210, the outer side wall of the flip cover 210 has two recessed easy-access grooves 213. The two easy-access grooves 213 are located on opposite sides of the snap-fit end 212, so that the user can snap their fingers in to operate the flip cover 210 to open the accommodating groove 230. In this embodiment, the snap-fit end 212 is embedded with a first magnet 241, and the main body 220 is embedded with a second magnet 242. When the snap-fit end 212 is close to the main body 220, the first magnet 241 and the second magnet 242 are magnetically attracted to each other (such as Figure 5 As shown), the flip cover 210 is magnetically snapped onto the main body 200, and the receiving slot 230 is closed. Figure 3 It should be understood that, in other embodiments, firstly, the flip cover 210 does not need to be rotatably connected to the main body 220, and the flip cover 210 can also be directly detached from the main body 220 to open the receiving slot 230; secondly, the easy-access slot 213 does not need to be provided outside the flip cover 210, and the user can still open the flip cover 210; finally, in other embodiments, the snap-fit end 213 can be snap-fitted to the main body 220 by a card block, a hook, etc. to close the receiving slot 230, and at this time, the handle 200 does not need to be provided with the first magnet 241 and the second magnet 242.
[0042] Combined with reference Figure 4 and Figure 5The main body 220 includes an inner support 221 and a bottom cover 222. The flip cover 210 is rotatably connected to the inner support 221. The inner support 221 is concave toward one side of the bottom cover 222 to form a front receiving groove 230. The microphone receiver 320, the control main board 400, and the battery assembly 500 are all placed between the inner support 221 and the bottom cover 222. The inner support 221 covers the bottom cover 222, and the flip cover 210 covers the inner support 221 to close the receiving groove 230. It should be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the main body 220 may not be split into the inner support 221 and the bottom cover 222. The main body 220 may also be solid, as long as a receiving groove 230 for receiving the microphone transmitter 310 and a corresponding chamber for receiving the microphone receiver 320, the control main board 400, and the battery assembly 500 are provided.
[0043] Combined with reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The microphone transmitter 310 includes a housing 311, a mainboard 312, a battery 313, and a pair of electric contact terminals 314 (positive and negative electrodes, respectively). The mainboard 312 and the battery 313 are electrically connected and built into the housing 311. Figure 6 In the figure, a pair of contact terminals 314 of the microphone transmitter 310 are electrically connected to opposite sides of the mainboard 312 and are arranged along the thickness direction of the microphone transmitter 310 and exposed on one side of the housing 311 close to the receiving slot 230. The control mainboard 400 has a pair of conductive ejector pins 410 (positive and negative poles respectively). When the microphone transmitter 310 is placed in the receiving slot 230, the conductive ejector pins 410 pass through the bottom wall of the receiving slot 230 and electrically contact the contact terminals 314, thereby achieving electrical contact between the microphone transmitter 310 and the control mainboard 400, and indirectly electrically connecting to the battery assembly 500, so that the microphone transmitter 310 can be charged through the battery assembly 500 when placed in the receiving slot 230. Figure 2 In the embodiment, the microphone transmitter 310 is provided with a charging port 315, and the microphone transmitter 310 can be charged independently after being separated from the main body 220. Therefore, in other embodiments of the present application, the microphone transmitter 310 can be charged without providing the electric contact terminal 314 and the conductive ejector pin 410.
[0044] In this embodiment, reference Figure 5, two third magnets 316 are arranged in the microphone transmitter 310, and two fourth magnets 223 are embedded on the side of the inner support 221 away from the receiving groove 230. When the microphone transmitter 310 is placed in the receiving groove 210, the third magnet 316 and the fourth magnet 223 are aligned and magnetically attracted, which, on the one hand, makes the microphone transmitter 310 magnetically attracted to the inner support 221 and further stably accommodated in the receiving groove 230, and on the other hand, makes the electric contact terminal 314 and the conductive ejector pin 410 realize automatic alignment and electrical contact. It should be understood that whether the third magnet 316 and the fourth magnet 223 are provided in other embodiments of the present application is not limited.
[0045] Finally, reference Figure 3 The microphone transmitter 310 is provided with a clamping plate 317, which is rotatably connected to the housing 311. The user clamps the microphone transmitter 310 on the collar (freeing both hands) through the clamping plate 311 and faces the mouth to receive the user's voice. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the microphone transmitter 310 does not need to be provided with a clamping plate 311, and can be placed on the collar by Velcro, hooks, etc., or nothing needs to be provided, and the microphone transmitter 310 can be directly held close to the mouth to record the sound.
[0046] The shooting aid 10 with built-in microphone function of the embodiment of the utility model comprises a connecting adapter structure 100 and a handle 200, wherein the adapter structure 100 is used to install and connect the shooting equipment, and the handle 200 is for the user to hold. The shooting aid 10 also comprises a microphone transmitter 310, a microphone receiver 320, a control mainboard 400, a battery assembly 500, and a data interface 600. The microphone transmitter 310 can be stored in the handle 200 or taken out and separated from the handle 200. The microphone receiver 320 is built into the handle 200 and is connected to the microphone transmitter 310 by wireless Bluetooth electrical signals; the control mainboard 400 and the battery assembly 500 are both built into the handle 200 and are electrically connected; the microphone receiver 320 is electrically connected to the control mainboard 400 and the data interface 500 at the same time, and the data interface 500 is electrically connected to the shooting equipment. Therefore, when the user needs to use the microphone function of the auxiliary shooting device 10 with built-in microphone function provided in the present application during shooting, he only needs to take out the microphone transmitter 310 and cooperate with the microphone receiver 320 built into the handle 200 to obtain the use of the microphone function.
