[0026] The present utility model provides, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in the embodiments of the present utility model, a double male multi-functional adapter, comprising: an adapter base 5 and an adjusting gear 4, an adapter base 3, a camera screw 1, and a bracket screw 6 installed in the adapter base 5;

[0027] The adapter base 5 has a shell sleeve structure, and one end face of the adapter base 5 is through; during the installation work, the adjusting gear 4 is loaded into the adapter base 5 from the through end of the adapter base 5, and the adapter base 3 is installed at the through opening position of the adapter base 5, so as to limit the adjusting gear 4 in the adapter base 5; and adjusting grooves 54 communicating with the inner cavity are provided on both sides of the adapter base 5, and the rotation adjustment of the adjusting gear 4 can be realized through the adjusting grooves 54;

[0028] A first connection screw hole 42 is formed at the center position of the adjusting gear 4, and one end of the camera screw 1 passes through the adapter base 3 and is loaded into the first connection screw hole 42 to achieve connection and cooperation with the adjusting gear 4;

[0029] At the center position of the other end face of the adapter base 5, a screw connection base 52 is integrally formed. A second connection screw hole 53 is formed at the center position of the screw connection base 52, and one end of the bracket screw 6 is installed in the second connection screw hole 53.

[0030] During use, one end of the adapter base 5 is connected and fitted with an action camera (or other products that can be connected with screws) through the camera screw 1; while the other end of the adapter base 5 can be connected and fitted with other bracket structures through the bracket screw 6; such a structural method can achieve the technical effect of enabling the adapter to cooperate with brackets of different structural styles.

[0031] During the use process, the effect of adjusting the angle of the action camera can be achieved by rotating the adjustment gear 4; and in order to achieve the effect of fixing the adjustment gear 4, a plurality of uniformly distributed reinforcement screw holes 41 are formed on the side surface of the adjustment gear 4;

[0032] Each of the reinforcement screw holes 41 extends through to the first connection screw hole 42 of the adjustment gear 4, and a reinforcement screw (not shown in the figure) is installed on each of the reinforcement screw holes 41. By screwing the reinforcement screw towards the center position, the camera screw 1 is locked by the reinforcement screw, improving the installation stability of the camera screw 1; at the same time, the effect of locking the adjustment gear 4 is achieved, avoiding the effect of angular deflection during the use of the action camera.

[0033] Furthermore, an installation internal thread 55 for installing the adapter base 3 is formed on the through-opening of the adapter base 5;

[0034] And a corresponding installation external thread 32 is formed on the adapter base 3. Through the cooperation of the two sets of threads, the installation of the adapter base 3 on the adapter base 5 is realized.

[0035] The adapter base 3 has a spiral structure and is composed of a connecting column 33 and an adapter bottom plate 31 formed at the bottom of the connecting column 33;

[0036] The connecting column 33 is inserted into the adapter base 5, and the installation external thread 32 is formed on the connecting column 33; and the outer end face of the adapter bottom plate 31 is an adapter surface that contacts the action camera. In order to improve the contact stability between the adapter surface and the action camera, an anti-slip pad 2 is provided on the adapter surface, and the anti-slip pad 2 is a single-body structure, and the user can replace the anti-slip pad 2 according to the use situation.

[0037] Furthermore, locking screw holes 51 are formed on both sides of the screw connection base 52. Each of the locking screw holes 51 extends through to the second connection screw hole 53 of the screw connection base 52, and a locking screw (not shown in the figure) is installed on each of the locking screw holes 51. The installation stability of the bracket screw 6 in the locking screw hole 51 can be improved through the locking screw.
