DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0042] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the present application provides a handheld gimbal 11 system, which includes a gimbal 11 and a remote controller 12. The gimbal 11 is provided with a shooting device 20; the remote controller 12 is detachably mounted on the gimbal 11, and when the remote controller 12 is separated from the gimbal 11, the remote controller 12 can remotely control the gimbal 11; the remote controller 12 is provided with a display screen 100, and the display screen 100 can display the shooting picture of the shooting device 20. The shooting device 20 may include but is not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet, a camera, etc., and the remote controller 12 can remotely control the start, stop, posture, etc. of the gimbal 11.

[0043] Before describing the technical effects that can be achieved by the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that most gimbals 11 are usually capable of changing postures, so that the camera of the shooting device 20 mounted thereon can face different angles and capture a variety of images to meet the user's various shooting needs. However, it is difficult for the photographer to observe the shooting image through the mobile phone screen at all times. For example, when the photographer takes a selfie using the rear camera of the mobile phone, the mobile phone screen is facing away from the photographer, and the photographer cannot observe the shooting image through the mobile phone screen.

[0044] In the face of the above-mentioned problems, the handheld gimbal 11 system of the present application can at least include the following beneficial effects: the remote control 12 can be detachably connected to the gimbal 11. When not in use, the remote control 12 can be separated from the gimbal 11 for easy storage; when in use, the remote control 12 can be installed on the gimbal 11, and the remote control 12 and the gimbal 11 are integrated. No multiple people are needed, only one photographer is needed to hold the gimbal 11 and the remote control 12 at the same time during the shooting process, which is easier to operate; it should be emphasized that compared with the above-mentioned traditional handheld gimbal 11 and remote control 12, when using the handheld gimbal 11 system of the present application, the photographer can not only perform some operations through the remote control 12, but also preview the shooting picture of the shooting device 20 such as a mobile phone in real time through the display screen 100 of the remote control 12, and then judge the composition of the shooting picture, and flexibly adjust the posture and shooting effect of the gimbal 11 accordingly.

[0045] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the gimbal 11 includes a handle 200, and the remote controller 12 is detachably mounted at the bottom of the handle 200. The outer circumference of the handle 200 may also be provided with control components such as buttons, a rocker 630, a dial or a control screen, or other structures, and the outer circumference of the handle 200 is usually a better position for users such as photographers to hold, so setting the remote controller 12 at the bottom can avoid affecting the user's grip on the handle 200 and affecting functional structures such as control components on the outer circumference of the handle 200. In addition, installing the remote controller 12 at the bottom of the handle 200 has other further beneficial effects, which will be further explained below.

[0046] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some of the embodiments, when the remote controller 12 is installed at the bottom of the handle 200, the shooting mode of the handheld gimbal 11 system can be a flashlight mode or an inverted mode, etc.

[0047] For example, in Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the shooting mode of the handheld gimbal 11 system may be an inverted mode. The inverted shooting mode of the handheld gimbal 11 system may also be referred to as an inverted shooting mode or a low-angle shooting mode. In this mode, the gimbal 11 will install the camera upside down so that the camera lens faces downward, and the handle 200 of the gimbal 11 faces upward, so that the camera movement effect of low-angle shooting can be achieved, such as shooting the footsteps of a person, the transition from the ground to the sky, and other camera movement effects, which can provide more possibilities for creation. At this time, the photographer holds the handle 200 of the gimbal 11, the bottom of the handle 200 faces upward, and the remote control 12 is installed at the bottom of the handle 200. On the one hand, the remote control 12 is closer to the photographer, which is more convenient for the photographer to operate the remote control 12. On the other hand, the photographer is in a high position, and the remote control 12 at the bottom of the handle 200 faces upward, which is also convenient for the photographer to view the display screen 100 on the remote control 12 and better observe the effect of the shooting picture.

[0048] For example, in some other embodiments, the shooting mode of the handheld gimbal 11 system can be a flashlight mode. The flashlight mode can be considered as a special shooting method. In this flashlight shooting mode, the photographer generally holds the handle 200 of the gimbal 11 with his hand. The gimbal 11 will keep the direction of the camera consistent with the direction of the photographer according to the manual operation of the photographer. In other words, no matter how the photographer moves, the angle of the camera will remain fixed, just like the beam of a flashlight always points to the same direction. This mode is suitable for situations where the camera angle needs to be kept stable, such as following sports, shooting walking and other scenes. At this time, the photographer holds the handle 200 of the gimbal 11, and the bottom of the handle 200 faces the photographer himself, and the remote control 12 is installed at the bottom of the handle 200. The remote control 12 is closer to the photographer, which makes it easier for the photographer to operate the remote control 12, and it is also easier for the photographer to view the display screen 100 on the remote control 12, so as to better observe the effect of the shooting picture.

[0049] See also Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the remote controller 12 is provided with a first magnetic member, and the remote controller 12 is magnetically attached to the bottom of the handle 200 through the first magnetic member. For example, a magnetic object such as a magnet is provided at the bottom of the handle 200, and the first magnetic member can be an object such as a magnet made of a magnetic material, or an object such as an iron member that can be magnetically attracted to the magnet, and the first magnetic member can be attached to the bottom of the handle 200.

[0050] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the handle 200 is provided with a second magnetic member 320 at the bottom, and the handle 200 is magnetically coupled to the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member 320 to fix the remote control 12. Among them, at least one of the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member 320 can be a magnetic object such as a magnet, and the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member 320 can be magnetically coupled to install the remote control 12 at the bottom of the handle 200.

[0051] For example, Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the second magnetic member 320 is a nut embedded in the bottom of the handle 200, wherein the nut can be an iron nut, and the first magnetic member 310 can be a magnet made of magnetic material.

[0052] For example, in other embodiments, the second magnetic component 320 is made of magnetic material, the first magnetic component can be made of magnetic material, and the polarities of the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component 320 are opposite, then the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component 320 can cooperate with each other to install the remote control 12 at the bottom of the handle 200.

[0053] For example, in other embodiments, the second magnetic member 320 is made of magnetic material, and the first magnetic member can be made of materials such as iron that can be attracted to a magnet. Then, the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member 320 can cooperate with each other to install the remote control 12 at the bottom of the handle 200.

[0054] More specifically, in some of the embodiments, the handle 200 has a plurality of supporting feet at the bottom, and the second magnetic member 320 is disposed on the bottom of at least one of the supporting feet. The plurality of supporting feet at the bottom of the handle 200 are generally used to provide a stable support function when the handheld gimbal 11 is placed on a plane. The design of the supporting feet enables the handheld gimbal 11 to be self-supporting when placed on a plane without the need for continuous handholding, which can provide more convenience and stability during shooting, making the shooting process smoother and more comfortable. When the photographer chooses to shoot in flashlight mode or inverted mode, the handle 200 can be held by hand, and the remote control 12 can be installed on at least one supporting foot at the bottom of the handle 200.

[0055] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, the gimbal 11 includes a handle 200 and an axis assembly 400 connected to the handle 200, and the axis assembly 400 is used to carry the shooting device 20. When the remote control 12 is installed on the axis assembly 400 or the back of the shooting device 20, the display screen 100 displays the shooting picture of the shooting device 20.

[0056] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the shaft assembly 400 includes a first shaft assembly 410, a second shaft assembly 420 and a third shaft assembly 430, the first shaft assembly 410 includes a first motor 411 and a first shaft arm 412, the first motor 411 is arranged at the top of the handle 200, the first motor 411 is connected to one end of the first shaft arm 412 and is used to drive the rotation of the first shaft arm 412; the second shaft assembly 420 includes a second motor 421 and a second shaft arm 422, the second motor 421 is arranged The third axis assembly 430 includes a third motor 431 and a clamping member 432 connected to the third motor 431. One end of the second axis arm 422 is connected to the second motor 421. The third motor 431 is disposed at the other end of the second axis arm 422 and is used to drive the rotation of the clamping member 432. The clamping member 432 is used to clamp the shooting device 20. The shooting device 20 can be a mobile phone, a tablet or a camera. Among them, the first motor 411 can be a heading motor, the second motor 421 can be a pitch motor, and the third motor 431 can be a roll motor. Therefore, the gimbal 11 can produce various posture changes, thereby flexibly adjusting the shooting angle and shooting effect of the shooting device 20.

[0057] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, the remote controller 12 is provided with a first magnetic component, and the remote controller 12 is magnetically adsorbed to the shaft assembly 400 or the back side of the shooting device 20 through the first magnetic component.

[0058] For example, in some embodiments, when the shooting device 20 is a mobile phone and the photographer uses the rear camera of the mobile phone to shoot a subject, the remote control 12 can be adsorbed on the shaft assembly 400 through the first magnetic member 310, such as the remote control 12 is magnetically connected to the third shaft arm or the stator of the third motor 431, and the remote control 12 is located on the side where the rear camera of the mobile phone is located, that is, the back of the shooting device 20. At this time, the photographer can directly view the shooting picture through the mobile phone screen, and the subject can also preview the picture shot by the mobile phone through the display screen 100 on the remote control 12. In other words, both the photographer and the subject can view the picture shot by the shooting device 20. If the subject is not satisfied with the current shooting angle and effect, the photographer can be reminded in time to adjust the current shooting in time, which is conducive to improving the overall shooting efficiency and shooting effect.

[0059] For example, Figure 2As shown, in other embodiments, when the shooting device 20 is a mobile phone and the photographer uses the rear camera of the mobile phone to shoot a certain person being photographed, the remote control 12 can be adsorbed on the back of the mobile phone through the first magnetic part 310, and the remote control 12 does not block the rear camera of the mobile phone. If the back of the shooting device 20 such as a mobile phone is made of iron material, the remote control 12 can be directly adsorbed on the back of the mobile phone through the first magnetic part 310; if the back of the shooting device 20 such as a mobile phone cannot be directly adsorbed, a third magnetic part 330 that can be magnetically matched with the first magnetic part can be set on the back of the mobile phone through adhesive, and the third magnetic part can be a magnet or an iron metal part. At this time, the photographer can directly view the shooting picture through the mobile phone screen, and the person being photographed can also preview the picture shot by the mobile phone through the display screen 100 on the remote control 12. In other words, both the photographer and the person being photographed can view the picture shot by the shooting device 20. If the person being photographed is not satisfied with the current shooting angle and effect, the photographer can be reminded in time to adjust the current shooting in time, which is conducive to improving the overall shooting efficiency and shooting effect.

[0060] See also Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the remote controller 12 is further provided with a bracket 500, and the bracket 500 and the display screen 100 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the remote controller 12, and the bracket 500 can move relative to the remote controller 12 to a storage position and an unfolded position; in the storage position, the bracket 500 is attached to the remote controller 12; Figure 6 As shown, in the unfolded position, the bracket 500 is set at an angle with the remote control 12 for supporting it on a desktop. When the remote control 12 is separated from the pan / tilt head 11 or the shooting device 20, the user can choose to adjust the bracket 500 of the remote control 12 to the storage position, at which time the remote control 12 is more neat and easy to store; the user can also choose to adjust the bracket 500 of the remote control 12 to the unfolded position, at which time the bracket 500 is unfolded, and the bracket 500 can be set at an angle with the remote control 12 for supporting it on a desktop. At this time, the user does not need to hold the remote control 12, and the display screen 100 can be located on the side of the remote control 12 facing away from the bracket 500, so that the user can watch the display screen 100.

[0061] Specifically, in some of the embodiments, one end of the bracket 500 is rotatably connected to the remote controller 12 and can move relative to the remote controller 12 to the storage position and the deployment position.

[0062] Specifically, Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the bracket 500 is provided with a plane mirror 510. The photographer or the person being photographed may need to observe their facial makeup at the shooting scene, and the plane mirror 510 provided on the bracket 500 can meet this demand in time, which is conducive to improving shooting efficiency and shooting effect, and bringing a good user experience.

[0063] For example, in some embodiments, when the bracket 500 is in the storage position, the bracket 500 is substantially parallel to the back of the remote control 12, and the plane mirror 510 on the bracket 500 is facing the back of the remote control 12; when the bracket 500 is in the unfolded position, the plane mirror 510 on the bracket 500 is also equivalent to being flipped out, so that the plane mirror 510 can be viewed by the user for use. In other embodiments, the plane mirror 510 can also be other positions of the bracket 500, such as when the bracket 500 is in the storage position and the bracket 500 is substantially parallel to the back of the remote control 12, the plane mirror 510 is arranged on the side of the bracket 500 facing away from the remote control 12, that is, the bracket 500 does not need to be unfolded in the storage state, and the user can view the plane mirror 510. The above is only a brief introduction to the position setting and usage scenarios of the plane mirror 510, and does not indicate or imply that the plane mirror 510 can only be set as in the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0064] Specifically, Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the remote controller 12 further includes a housing 600 and a circuit board 650 and a battery 640 disposed in the housing 600, the battery 640 and the circuit board 650 are electrically connected, and the first magnetic attraction member is disposed in the housing 600. The housing 600 is formed by enclosing a front cover 610 and a rear cover 620, the bracket 500 is disposed in the rear cover 620, and the display screen 100 is embedded in the front cover 610. The remote controller 12 is also provided with a joystick 630, the operating end of the remote control lever is penetrated through the front cover 610 for user operation, and the joystick 630 is used to control the gimbal 11 and / or the shooting device 20, so that the operation of the gimbal 11 is more flexible and convenient. For example, the joystick 630 on the controller is usually used to control the movement and direction of the gimbal 11, and usually the greater the degree of pushing the joystick 630, the faster the movement speed of the gimbal 11. This allows the user to adjust the movement speed of the gimbal 11 as needed to adapt to different shooting scenes and requirements. The joystick 630 may also be provided with additional buttons or switches for switching between different operating modes of the gimbal 11.

[0065] See also Fig. 9In some embodiments, the remote controller 12 is a terminal device. After the terminal device is connected to the shooting device 20, the terminal device controls the pan-tilt head 11 through the shooting device 20. In some embodiments, the terminal device may be a smart watch. When the user does not use the smart watch as a remote controller, the user may choose to separate the smart watch from the pan-tilt head and wear the smart watch on the wrist. For the user, such a setting not only improves the portability of the terminal device, but also allows the terminal device to be used for functions such as viewing time. When the user wants to use the smart watch as a remote controller, the smart watch can be removed from the wrist and then installed on the pan-tilt head or shooting device. The specific usage and effects can be referred to above and will not be repeated here.

[0066] In some implementations, the terminal device establishes a communication connection with the camera 20 by identifying a graphic code displayed by the camera 20. The graphic code may be a QR code, etc. For example, when the camera 20 is a mobile phone, a graphic code such as a QR code is displayed on the screen of the mobile phone, and the terminal device may scan and identify the graphic code through its own camera, thereby establishing a connection with the camera 20.

[0067] In some embodiments, the remote controller 12 is connected to the gimbal 11 in communication, and the display screen 100 of the remote controller 12 can display information about the gimbal 11, including one or more of the gimbal 11 mode, the power of the gimbal 11, and the angle of the gimbal 11. Such a setting can help the photographer to keep an eye on the battery life of the remote controller 12, let the photographer know the current shooting situation of the gimbal 11, etc., so that the photographer can better control the shooting time and adjust the shooting angle in time.
