[0030] It should be further understood that the term “and / or” used in the present specification and the appended claims refers to any combination and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items, and includes these combinations.
[0031] See also Figure 1The embodiment of the utility model provides a connecting rod 1 fixing structure, comprising: a connecting rod 1, with a turn buckle 11 provided on the outer periphery; a bracket 2, with a through hole 21 for the connecting rod 1 to pass axially, and a guide notch 22 corresponding to the turn buckle 11 is provided along the inner edge of the through hole 21; wherein the guide notch 22 comprises a clearance notch 221 and a locking notch 222 arranged adjacent to each other, the clearance notch 221 is for the turn buckle 11 to pass axially, and the locking notch 222 is for limiting the rotation when the turn buckle 11 rotates to the locking notch 222.
[0032] In this embodiment, when the turn buckle 11 rotates from the clearance notch 221 to the locking notch 222, the rotation limit of the turn buckle 11 is achieved, and a stable connection between the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2 is further achieved, preventing the turn buckle 11 from loosening from the guide notch 22 due to accidental movement. At the same time, this connecting rod 1 and fixing method do not require additional fasteners or complex mechanisms, and are convenient and quick to disassemble and assemble, with a simple structure, further reducing costs.
[0033] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, a locking portion 2221 is provided at the inner edge of the locking notch 222, and a locking groove 111 corresponding to the locking portion 2221 is provided at the outer edge of the turn button 11. In this embodiment, when the connecting rod 1 is inserted into the through hole 21 of the bracket 2, the turn button 11 is locked into the clearance notch 221, and then the turn button 11 rotates to the locking notch 222, at which time the locking portion 2221 is aligned with and locked into the locking groove 111, and the matching of the locking groove 111 and the locking portion 2221 provides a more tightened locking force, effectively preventing the turn button 11 from accidentally loosening or slipping when subjected to external force, and greatly enhancing the reliability and stability of the connection between the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2.
[0034] At the same time, due to the design of the locking portion 2221 and the engaging groove 111, the rotary buckle 11 can easily slide in or out during the process of screwing in or out, without the need for additional tools or complicated operation steps. This convenient disassembly and assembly method not only improves work efficiency, but also reduces the difficulty of operation, and realizes convenient and quick disassembly and assembly. The fixing method of the rotary buckle 11 reduces the wear caused by disassembly and assembly through the cooperation of the locking portion 2221 and the engaging groove 111, thereby extending the service life of the imaging device.
[0035] In a specific embodiment, the assembly and screwing process of the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2 is as follows. First, along the axial direction of the connecting rod 1, the buckle 11 is aligned with the guide notch 22 on the bracket 2, and then the connecting rod 1 is inserted into the through hole 21. Figure 2 In the screwing direction shown, the connecting rod 1 is rotated 45°, and the engaging groove 111 on the connecting rod 1 and the engaging portion 2221 overlap, as shown in FIG. Figure 2The cross-sectional view of the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2 is shown in the screwed-in state. At this time, there is a "click" sound, indicating that they are fastened in place, and the user can feel a good hand feel during the screwing process.
[0036] During the unscrewing process of disassembling, the connecting rod 1 is rotated 45° in the unscrewing direction, and then the connecting rod 1 is pulled out from the bracket 2.
[0037] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 2 includes a bracket main body 23 and a bracket sub-body 24, a through hole 21 and a clearance gap 221 are arranged in the bracket main body 23, the bracket main body 23 includes a first surface 231 and a second surface 232 opposite to each other, wherein the first surface 231 is an insertion surface of the connecting rod 1, the bracket sub-body 24 is arranged on the second surface 232 along the inner edge of the through hole 21, and the bracket sub-body 24 avoids the clearance gap 221, and the locking gap 222 is arranged along the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24, and when the turn buckle 11 rotates to the locking gap 222, a part of the bracket main body 23 axially limits the turn buckle 11.
[0038] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the through hole 21 and the clearance notch 221 not only meets the requirement of inserting the turn button 11 of the connecting rod 1, but also allows the turn button 11 to rotate in the positioning notch 222 through the avoidance design. Specifically, the bracket sub-body 24 avoids the clearance notch 221, ensuring that the turn button 11 will not interfere with the bracket main body 23 during the rotation process. At the same time, the positioning notch 222 is arranged along the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24. When the turn button 11 rotates to the positioning notch 222, a part of the bracket main body 23 (from the bracket main body 23) is Figure 3 It can be seen that this part is an arc-shaped part connected to the clearance notch 221 and tilted downward away from the clearance notch 221) to axially limit the turn buckle 11, ensuring the stability of the turn buckle 11 in the locked state, and effectively preventing imaging equipment failure caused by loosening or falling off of the turn buckle 11.
[0039] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24 is an arc structure 244. In this embodiment, from the second surface 232 of the bracket main body 23, the arc structure 244 of the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24 is the part of the bracket sub-body 24 that avoids the gap 221. Specifically, the arc structure 244 can also be a guiding structure. When the turn button 11 rotates to the locking gap 222, the arc structure 244 guides the turn button 11 so that the turn button 11 can rotate along the locking gap 222 of the bracket sub-body 24 until the locking portion 2221 is locked into the locking groove 111 to limit the axial position of the turn button 11.
[0040] It should be noted that the arc-shaped portion of the bracket main body 23 and the arc-shaped structure 244 of the bracket auxiliary body 24 are respectively arranged on the opposite first surface 231 and the second surface 232 , and both are used to limit the axial position of the turn buckle 11 .
[0041] Furthermore, the bracket sub-body 24 includes a resisting portion 241, and when the turn button 11 rotates to the locking notch 222, the resisting portion 241 resists the end of the turn button 11. In this embodiment, when the turn button 11 rotates to the locking notch 222 along the arc structure 244 on the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24, the resisting portion 241 provides a force to the end of the turn button 11 (the end of the turn button 11 close to the resisting portion 241) to resist the turn button 11 from continuing to rotate toward the resisting portion 241, thereby achieving the locking of the turn button 11 in the axial direction and preventing the turn button 11 from loosening or falling off.
[0042] Furthermore, the bracket sub-body 24 includes a first sub-body 242 , wherein the locking portion 2221 is disposed at an end of the first sub-body 242 .
[0043] In this embodiment, when the turn buckle 11 rotates along the arc structure 244 on the inner edge of the bracket sub-body 24 to the locking notch 222, the locking portion 2221 will provide a force to the end of the turn buckle 11 (the end of the turn buckle 11 close to the locking portion 2221) to resist the turn buckle 11 from continuing to rotate toward the locking portion 2221, thereby achieving the locking of the turn buckle 11 in the axial direction and preventing the turn buckle 11 from loosening or falling off.
[0044] In summary, the locking portion 2221 and the abutting portion 241 are arranged relative to each other, so that a close cooperation relationship is formed between the locking portion 2221 and the abutting portion 241, and the locking portion 2221 and the abutting portion 241 are used together to limit the rotation of the turn buckle 11 in the locking notch 222. The locking portion 2221 can be a locking convex strip or a convex point, etc., which matches the corresponding part of the locking groove 111 on the turn buckle 11, further enhancing the stability of the turn buckle 11 in the locked state.
[0045] In this embodiment, the bracket sub-body 24 further includes a second sub-body 243 spaced apart from the first sub-body 242, wherein the abutment portion 241 is disposed at the end of the second sub-body 243. The first sub-body 242 and the second sub-body 243 are spaced apart, and a certain space is formed between them, so that the knob 11 can rotate in the locking notch 222. The locking portion 2221 is disposed at the end of the first sub-body 242. When the knob 11 rotates along the arc structure 244 of the bracket sub-body 24, it will encounter the locking portion 2221. When the knob 11 rotates to the locking notch 222, the locking portion 2221 will be embedded in the locking groove 111 to prevent the knob 11 from continuing to rotate in this direction. Although the abutment portion 241 does not directly participate in the locking and locking of the knob 11, it provides necessary support and restriction for the process of the knob 11 rotating in the locking notch 222. When the turn buckle 11 is locked by the locking portion 2221 , the abutting portion 241 ensures that the turn buckle 11 will not be easily disengaged from the locking notch 222 due to external force, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the locking.
[0046] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, there are multiple turn buckles 11, and there are correspondingly multiple guide notches 22. In this embodiment, the provision of multiple turn buckles 11 and multiple guide notches 22 enhances the stability of the connection between the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2. During the process of the turn buckle 11 rotating and locking in the locking notch 222, certain pressure and tension will be generated. These forces are better dispersed and supported by the distribution of multiple turn buckles 11 and multiple guide notches 22, further reducing the occurrence of loosening or falling off of the turn buckle 11.
[0047] In addition, as the use time of the imaging device increases, the wear and aging of the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2 are inevitable. The provision of multiple knobs 11 and guide notches 22 makes the maintenance and upgrading of the connecting rod and bracket equipment more convenient. When a certain knob 11 or guide notch 22 needs to be replaced or repaired, a knob 11 or guide notch 22 can be replaced alone without affecting the normal connection between the connecting rod and the bracket. If the connection and fixing structure of the connecting rod and the bracket needs to be upgraded or modified to meet the requirements or standards of new imaging equipment, it can also be achieved by increasing or reducing the number of knobs 11 and guide notches 22, thereby reducing the cost and time of upgrading and modification.
[0048] Preferably, the locking portion 2221 is made of elastic material. When the locking portion 2221 is subjected to pressure from the rotary buckle 11 , it can be deformed to a certain extent, so that the locking portion 2221 can be matched with the locking groove 111 on the rotary buckle 11 more easily.
[0049] At the same time, the elastic locking portion 2221 can provide better sealing and contact force during the locking process of the turn buckle 11. When the turn buckle 11 rotates to the locking notch 222, the elastic locking portion 2221 will be tightly embedded in the locking groove 111 of the turn buckle 11 by virtue of its elastic force, forming a more stable locking connection. This tight connection not only reduces the risk of loosening of the turn buckle 11 due to vibration or external force, but also improves the reliability and durability of the locking of the connecting rod 1 and the bracket 2.
[0050] The utility model also provides an imaging device, including a connecting rod 1 fixing structure as described in any one of the above items. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 1 is used to support the imaging device, and is a retractable structure that can be lengthened or shortened. The user can change the shooting angle, height or distance of the imaging device by adjusting the length of the connecting rod 1 according to actual needs to meet the shooting requirements in different scenes. The bracket 2 is used to fix and support the connecting rod 1 to ensure that the imaging device can remain stable in any scene.
[0051] The various embodiments in the specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same and similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. For the device disclosed in the embodiment, since it corresponds to the method disclosed in the embodiment, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the method part description. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the utility model, the utility model can also be improved and modified, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the utility model.
