Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of monopods, in particular to a universal adjustment self-locking structure of a monopod. Background Art
[0002] A monopod is a bracket used to stabilize a camera. Different from a tripod, it is not suitable for long-exposure shooting applications of a camera. However, the monopod is more portable and flexible than a tripod. The monopod has components such as a frame body, a pan-tilt head, and a support leg, etc. When in use, a user directly installs the camera on the pan-tilt head at the top of the monopod and uses the support leg to erect the frame body on a plane. In this way, the camera on the pan-tilt head can be used for shooting. However, when the current monopod is erected on a plane for use, it is inconvenient to adjust the inclination angle of the frame body relative to the plane, so that the tilt angle of the pan-tilt head cannot be adjusted, which will affect the flexibility of the monopod in use.

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments; based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Embodiment 1
[0021] As Figure 1, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a universal adjustment and self-locking structure of a monopod includes a frame body 16 and three legs 15. A pan-tilt is provided at the upper end of the frame body 16. An adjustable structure is further included at the lower end of the frame body 16. The adjustable structure includes a chassis 13 and a sphere 3 fixedly connected to the lower end of the frame body 16. The legs 15 are all rotatably arranged on the chassis 13, and an adjusting spring 12 is provided at the upper end of the chassis 13.
[0022] With the above structure, the chassis 13 can be placed on a plane by the legs 15, and how to conveniently adjust the angle of the frame body 16 is as follows:
[0023] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , an adjusting block 10 is provided at the upper end of the adjusting spring 12. A groove is formed in the adjusting block 10. An adjusting hook 11 that cooperates with the groove on the adjusting block 10 is rotatably provided on the chassis 13. A locking ring seat 7 is provided at the upper end of the chassis 13 around the adjusting block 10. Not less than one and evenly arranged adjusting screws 8 are fixedly connected to the locking ring seat 7. An adjusting seat 5 is fixedly connected to the adjusting screw 8. A cylindrical member 1 around the sphere 3 is threadedly connected inside the adjusting seat 5. The chassis 13 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the locking ring seat 7 by a countersunk head screw 14. A slotted screw 9 is threadedly connected inside the locking ring seat 7. The slotted screw 9 is used to fix the locking ring seat 7 around the adjusting block 10.
[0024] With the above structure, stepping on the adjusting block 10 can adjust the angle of the frame body 16 conveniently and quickly.
[0025] Embodiment 2
[0026] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a washer 6 that cooperates with the locking ring seat 7 is adhered to the lower end of the adjusting seat 5. Upper fixing rings 2 and lower fixing rings 4 are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the sphere 3. The upper fixing rings 2 and the lower fixing rings 4 respectively cooperate with the cylindrical member 1 and the adjusting seat 5. The adjusting seat 5 has three outward protrusions, and anti-slip grooves are provided on the protrusions.
[0027] With the above structure, the protrusions facilitate the user to step on the adjusting seat 5.
[0028] When the utility model is specifically implemented and in use, the three legs at the bottom of the monopod are unfolded, and the leg can be used to vertically place the frame body on a plane. Then, the camera is installed on the cloud platform at the upper end of the frame body to be used. When it is necessary to adjust the inclination angle of the frame body, specifically, the user steps on the adjustment seat with the foot and presses the adjustment seat downward. Under the action of the adjustment spring, the adjustment hook can be driven to move out of the groove in the adjustment block. In this way, the locking ring seat will become loose, so that the clamping force of the locking ring seat on the sphere is reduced. In this way, the sphere can be rotated within the locking ring seat, thereby rotating the frame body, which can improve the flexibility during use and can adjust the inclination angle of the frame body relative to the plane. After the foot releases the adjustment seat, the elastic force of the adjustment spring will drive the locking ring seat to move upward and reset, and the adjustment hook will also extend into the groove, so that the sphere can be locked continuously to prevent the frame body from shaking.
