Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of camera protection, in particular to a camera rain and sun protection cover. Background Technique

[0002] At present, cameras are sold without a rain and sun protection covering device. When shooting in rainy days, two people are required to operate. One person holds an umbrella to cover, and the other person holds the camera to shoot, which is very inconvenient. And the existing camera rain protection devices are mostly just the common umbrellas used by humans on a smaller scale, and the experience brought by this is not good. First of all, after the umbrella-shaped rain protection device is opened, the umbrella legs are very long, and the umbrella top is very high from the camera body. Even with a slight breeze, the raindrops will be blown onto the camera body, and the rain protection effect is poor. Secondly, the existing protective umbrella is too high, resulting in too high a center of gravity after being installed on the camera and cannot be leveled on the stabilizer, and cannot be installed on the stabilizer for normal use.

[0003] For the vertical screen short video industry, the existing rain protection tools cannot well take into account vertical shooting.

[0004] During the live broadcast process of the camera, the heat generation is large. When live broadcasting outdoors in the sun, the camera often overheats and shuts down. At present, there has not been a solution to provide camera sun protection for the phenomenon of overheating during live shooting in the sun.

[0005] Therefore, the technical personnel in this field provide a camera rain and sun protection cover to solve the problems raised in the above background technique. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a camera rain and sun protection cover to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a camera rain and sun protection cover includes a rain and sun protection cover main body, a cold shoe elastic piece, and a vertical shooting magic hand. The cold shoe elastic piece is fixed on the arm of the rain and sun protection cover main body by screws, and then the cold shoe elastic piece is pushed into the camera hot shoe port to complete the fixation of the rain and sun protection cover main body. At this time, when shooting horizontal videos and photos, rain and sun protection can be achieved. The vertical shooting magic hand is installed by pushing the cold shoe leg into the camera hot shoe port, and the cold shoe elastic piece is pushed into the cold shoe seat of the vertical shooting magic hand to complete the installation. At this time, when shooting vertical videos and photos, rain and sun protection can be achieved. A wireless microphone fixing device is provided at the bottom of the rain and sun protection cover main body, which can be used for fixing the wireless microphone. This device has strong expandability, a wide range of applications, and is very easy to use.

[0008] Preferably, the camera body and the lens form a T shape. The top-down shape of the rain and sun protection cover is the same as the top-down contour of the camera, forming a T shape. The lens extends more upward correspondingly. The top is a flat surface with slopes on all sides, and the bottom is an open cavity that just wraps the camera body, greatly improving the rain protection effect. At the same time, the slopes on all sides wrap the camera, providing a good sunshade effect. The front edge of the rain and sun protection cover is lifted upward, and when using a short-focus lens, the rain and sun protection cover will not block the lens and does not affect shooting.

[0009] Preferably, a wireless microphone fixing device is provided at the bottom of the rain and sun protection cover. The opening of the wireless microphone fixing device is clamped and fixed by a fixed wireless microphone clip, so that the wireless microphone can also be protected from rain.

[0010] Preferably, there is an arm at the bottom of the rain and sun protection cover, which is fixed to the cold shoe elastic piece with screws. The cold shoe elastic piece, as a connecting device, has a large wear during daily use. It is designed in a detachable and replaceable form, which reduces the maintenance cost of the entire rain and sun protection cover and has a long service life. The arm has an elastic arch, and the mechanical structure of the elastic arch can provide a part of elasticity. Both the elastic arch and the cold shoe elastic piece can provide elasticity towards the middle of the two, and can be automatically clamped and fixed when installed on the camera hot shoe or the vertical shooting magic hand cold shoe base.

[0011] Preferably, the cold shoe elastic piece has two screw holes, which is convenient for daily replacement and maintenance. There are two notches at the corners, and the two notches fit the inner convex corners of the hot shoe on the camera, making the cold shoe elastic piece more stable when installed on the camera hot shoe. The middle of the cold shoe elastic piece protrudes, which can lift the cold shoe elastic piece by a certain distance, making the installation easy and not too tight.

[0012] Preferably, there are three cold shoe seats above the vertical shooting magic hand to install cold shoe elastic pieces to fix the main body of the rain and sun protection cover. For cameras of different sizes, different positions of the cold shoe seats can be selected to achieve a better protection effect. Install the cold shoe legs under the vertical shooting magic hand into the camera hot shoe. Such a form can perfectly solve the rain and sun protection problems during vertical shooting. There is a cold shoe seat on the side for expanding other cold shoe accessories to expand other accessories.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:

[0014] In the present utility model, the rain and sun protection cover is a hard shell that can self-support, does not affect operation, does not affect viewfinder, has a low height and center of gravity, and can be installed on a stabilizer together with the camera. In the vertical shooting scenario, the camera and the rain and sun protection cover can be connected through the vertical shooting magic hand. After connection, there are three horizontal positions to choose for fixing, adapting to the vertical shooting problems of cameras of different sizes and shapes. The rain and sun protection cover is made of opaque plastic material, which can effectively block direct sunlight and solve the problem of camera sun protection. The rain and sun protection cover has a wireless microphone fixing device, which can fix the wireless microphone and protect the wireless microphone from rain. The thickness of the rain and sun protection cover device is thin and convenient to carry, and it is very useful. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0023] The present invention and its embodiments are described below. This description is not restrictive, and the actual embodiments are not limited thereto. Generally speaking, if those of ordinary skill in the art are inspired by it and, without departing from the spirit of the present invention, design similar structural modes and embodiments to this technical solution without creative efforts, they shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, in an embodiment of the present utility model, a camera rain and sun protection cover includes a main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover, a cold shoe elastic piece 3, and a vertical shooting magic arm 10. The cold shoe elastic piece 3 is fixed on the support arm 6 of the main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover by screws, and then the cold shoe elastic piece 3 is pushed into the camera hot shoe socket to complete the fixation of the main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover. At this time, shooting horizontal videos and photos can achieve rain and sun protection. The cold shoe leg 8 of the vertical shooting magic arm is pushed into the camera hot shoe socket to complete the installation, and the cold shoe elastic piece 3 is pushed into the cold shoe base 9 of the vertical shooting magic arm to complete the installation. At this time, shooting vertical videos and photos can achieve rain and sun protection. A wireless microphone fixing device 2 is provided at the bottom of the main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover, which can be used for fixing a wireless microphone. This device has strong expandability and a wide application range and is very useful.

[0025] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 shown, the shape of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 exactly corresponds to the contours of the camera body and lens, conforming to the shape that is narrow and long in the front and wide in the back, enabling rain protection without dead angles. At the same time, the top of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 is flat. Such a design makes the overall height of the rain and sun protection cover very low, and the center of gravity is also reduced simultaneously, so that it can still be leveled and used stably after being installed on the camera. The four sides of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 are provided with inclined surfaces 5 to divert rainwater. At the same time, the inclined surfaces 5 can also make the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 wrap around both sides of the camera and extend to play the role of blocking sunlight from directly shining on the camera, playing a sun protection role. The front edge 4 of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 is lifted upward. When using a short-focus lens, the front edge 4 will not block the lens, and a wider field of view can be obtained. A support arm 6 is provided below the rain and sun protection cover main body 1. The support arm 6 fixes the cold shoe elastic piece 3 through screws. The cold shoe elastic piece 3 is pushed into the camera hot shoe to be clamped and fixed, achieving the effect of horizontal shooting rain and sun protection. The support arm 6 supports the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 at a certain height, so that there is enough clearance between the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 and the camera body to operate the camera. After installation, the rear inclined surface edge of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 will not block the camera eyepiece and does not affect viewing through the eyepiece. The camera screen can also be fully displayed in front without any obstruction.

[0026] As Figure 1 , Figure 5 shown, the wireless microphone fixing device 2 is arranged at the bottom of the cavity of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1. The wireless microphone is fixed by being clamped in the wireless microphone fixing device 2, and excellent rain protection effect can be obtained, and the installation is also extremely simple.

[0027] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 shown, the cold shoe elastic piece 3 is fixed on the support arm 6 of the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 through screws. The cold shoe elastic piece 3 is often disassembled and worn on the camera hot shoe and the vertical shooting magic hand cold shoe base 9 during daily use. This detachable design can make the entire rain and sun protection cover device easier to maintain and last longer. When the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 is directly installed on the camera hot shoe opening through the cold shoe elastic piece 3, the rain and sun protection cover is in a horizontal shooting protection form. When vertical shooting is required, the rain and sun protection cover main body 1 is installed on the vertical shooting magic hand cold shoe base 9 through the cold shoe elastic piece 3, and the vertical shooting magic hand cold shoe leg 8 is installed on the camera hot shoe opening for fixation. At this time, the rain and sun protection cover is in a vertical shooting protection form.

[0028] As Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 7As shown in the figure, there are three cold shoe mounts 9 on the vertical shooting magic hand 10. These three cold shoe mounts 9 fix the main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover by clamping the cold shoe spring piece 3. The three different cold shoe mounts 9 enable the main body 1 of the rain and sun protection cover to achieve three horizontal position selections, and select the most suitable position for cameras of different sizes to achieve the best rain and sun protection effect. There is a cold shoe mount 7 under the vertical shooting magic hand 10 for expanding other cold shoe devices, such as a microphone, a fill light, etc. There is a cold shoe leg 8 under the vertical shooting magic hand 10. The cold shoe leg 8 is elastic and its size fits the camera hot shoe. The cold shoe leg 8 can be pushed into the camera hot shoe to complete the installation.

[0029] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its inventive concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
