[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "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 directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.
[0031] See Figures 1 to 4, a swing angle adjusting mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a base 100, on which a first rotating shaft 200 is provided; a first adjusting screw 300, rotatably provided only on the base 100, the first adjusting screw 300 being spatially orthogonal to the first rotating shaft 200; a first moving member 400, threadedly connected to the first adjusting screw 300 to reciprocate along the length direction of the first adjusting screw 300; a first connecting member 500, rotatably provided on the base 100 around the axial direction of the first rotating shaft 200, the first connecting member 500 being provided with a first limiting portion capable of abutting against the front end and the rear end of the moving direction of the first moving member 400; when the first moving member 400 moves on the first adjusting screw 300, it abuts against the first limiting portion to drive the first connecting member 500 to rotate relative to the base 100 around the axial direction of the first rotating shaft 200.
[0032] Among them, the base 100 can be used as a fixed seat, and the base 100 can also be connected to components such as a tripod and a boom. The first connecting member 500 can be directly connected to the imaging device, or the first connecting member 500 is connected to the imaging device through a pan-tilt head. The swing angle adjusting mechanism with the above structure rotates the first adjusting screw 300, and the first moving member 400 feeds and moves on the first adjusting screw 300 to abut against the first limiting portion of the first connecting member 500, thereby driving the first connecting member 500 to rotate relative to the base 100 around the axial direction of the first rotating shaft 200, so as to adjust the swing angle in a certain direction to meet the use needs of shooting or projection. The movement accuracy of the first moving member 400 is high to accurately realize the change of the swing angle, and the adjustment efficiency is high and the use is convenient.
[0033] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present invention, a threaded through hole 410 adapted to the first adjusting screw 300 is provided in the middle of the first moving member 400, and first arc surfaces 420 are provided on the outer walls at both ends of the first moving member 400 along the length direction of the first adjusting screw 300, and at least part of the first arc surfaces 420 are arranged around the radial circumference of the first adjusting screw 300. It should be noted that the whole formed by the first moving member 400 and the first adjusting screw 300 is equivalent to a lead screw-nut mechanism. When the first moving member 400 abuts against the first limiting portion and moves, the first connecting member 500 receives a torque, and the first connecting member 500 can rotate relative to the base 100 around the first rotating shaft 200. During the rotation of the first connecting member 500 around the first rotating shaft 200, the position where the first moving member 400 contacts the first limiting portion changes, and the setting of the first arc surface 420 ensures that the first connecting member 500 rotates stably at a preset swing rate, avoiding the situation that the angular position of the first connecting member 500 relative to the first moving member 400 suddenly changes, and improving the stability of swing angle adjustment.
[0034] See Figures 2 to 4 Figures 2 to 4 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the first moving member 400 includes a spherical portion, the threaded through hole 410 is radially disposed through the spherical portion, a partial spherical surface of the spherical portion constitutes the first arc surface 420, and the first connecting member 500 is provided with a second arc surface 510 that abuts against both sides of the spherical portion along the moving direction of the first moving member 400. It can be understood that the second arc surface 510 abutting against both sides of the moving direction of the first moving member 400 can prevent the first connecting member 500 and the base 100 from moving in the direction perpendicular to the first adjusting screw 300. Moreover, when the first connecting member 500 rotates relative to the first moving member 400 around the first rotating shaft 200, the spherical portion neither interferes with the free rotation of the first connecting member 500, nor can the spherical portion limit the first connecting member 500 to rotate relative to the first moving member 400 only around the first rotating shaft 200, further improving the smoothness and stability of the swing angle adjusting mechanism.
[0035] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, in order to prevent the first adjusting screw 300 from driving the first moving member 400 to rotate together when rotating, resulting in the first moving member 400 being unable to reciprocate along the first adjusting screw 300, a rotation limiting portion 430 is protrudingly provided on the spherical portion, and the first connecting member 500 can abut against both sides of the rotation limiting portion 430 along the moving direction of the first moving member 400 to play a role of moving guidance.
[0036] See Figures 2 to 4 Figures 2 to 4 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the first connecting member 500 has two parallelly spaced-apart clamping plates 520, the second arc surface 510 is provided on the inner side of the clamping plates 520, the spherical portion is clamped between the two clamping plates 520, and the first adjusting screw 300 passes through the gap between the two clamping plates 520. Specifically, a second arc surface 510 is formed on the inner surface of each of the two clamping plates 520, and a multi-point contact is formed between the spherical portion and all the second arc surfaces 510. When the spherical portion moves along the first adjusting screw 300, the second arc surface 510 offsets on the spherical surface of the spherical portion. In addition, the two clamping plates 520 can also clamp both sides of the rotation limiting portion 430, restricting the rotation limiting portion 430 to reciprocate only along the length direction of the gap between the two clamping plates 520. The above structure helps to improve the structural compactness, reduce the number of components, and simplify the manufacturing process.
[0037] See Figures 2 to 4, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the first limiting portion is defined between all the second arc surfaces 510, and the inner diameter dimension of the second arc surface 510 is adapted to the diameter dimension of the spherical portion so that the spherical portion can only rotate relative to the first connecting member 500. It can be understood that all the second arc surfaces 510 can not only serve as the first limiting portion but also prevent the spherical portion from moving in other directions relative to the first connecting member 500 except for rotating around the first rotating shaft 200, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the swing angle adjustment of the imaging device on the first connecting member 500.
[0038] See Figures 1 to 3 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, in order to prevent foreign objects from touching the first adjusting thread, the first moving member 400 and the first connecting member 500, the base 100 is a sleeve member that is penetrated up and down. The first moving member 400 and at least part of the first connecting member 500 are located inside the sleeve member. The first rotating shaft 200 and the first adjusting screw 300 are both horizontally disposed through the sleeve member. One end of the first adjusting screw 300 is connected with a knob portion 310 that extends outside the sleeve member, and the knob portion 310 facilitates the user to manually rotate the first adjusting screw 300.
[0039] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, a second rotating shaft 600 that is spatially orthogonal to the first rotating shaft 200 is provided on the base 100. The base 100 is only rotatably provided with a second adjusting screw 710 that is parallel to the first rotating shaft 200. A second moving member 720 that reciprocates along its length direction is threadedly connected to the second adjusting screw 710. The base 100 is rotatably provided around the axis of the second rotating shaft 600 with a second connecting member 730. The second connecting member 730 is provided with a second limiting portion that can abut against the front end and the rear end of the moving direction of the second moving member 720. The second moving member 720 abuts against the second limiting portion and drives the second connecting member 730 to rotate relative to the base 100 around the axis of the second rotating shaft 600. The above structure can realize the swing angle adjustment in two mutually orthogonal directions. For example, while realizing the up-and-down swing adjustment, the left-and-right swing adjustment can also be realized. It can be understood that according to the needs of use, more directions of swing angle adjustment can be expanded by increasing the number of swing angle adjustment mechanisms. In some embodiments, the second rotating shaft 600 and the first rotating shaft 200 can also be arranged to intersect at an acute angle in space, etc.
[0040] See Figure 7, in some embodiments of the present utility model, one of the first connecting member 500 and the second connecting member 730 is used to connect the imaging device, and the other is used to connect the bracket assembly 800. At this time, the above structure can be used to realize the rotation of the imaging device around the first rotation axis 200 and the second rotation axis 600, so as to realize the swing adjustment in two directions. For example, while realizing the up-and-down swing adjustment, the left-and-right swing adjustment can also be realized, so as to meet different shooting requirements or projection requirements. Specifically, the first connecting member 500 can be connected to the imaging device through a pan-tilt head or a quick-release plate assembly, and the second connecting member 730 is connected to the bracket assembly 800, and the bracket assembly 800 generally adopts a tripod.
[0041] See Figure 7 , the present utility model also discloses an imaging device, including: the swing angle adjustment mechanism of any of the above technical solutions. The imaging device drives the first moving member 400 to feed and move on the first adjustment screw 300 by rotating the first adjustment screw 300, and uses the first moving member 400 to contact the first limiting portion to drive the first connecting member 500 to rotate relative to the base 100 around the axial direction of the first rotation axis 200, which can accurately realize the swing angle adjustment of the imaging device, and has high adjustment efficiency and convenient use.
[0042] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brief description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.
[0043] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
