For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As an embodiment of the present invention, a shooting bracket with a clamping function is provided, which includes a supporting mechanism 1, a mounting mechanism 2 and a clamping mechanism 3. The supporting mechanism 1 includes a main supporting leg 11 and a slave supporting leg 12. The slave supporting leg 12 is hinged to the main supporting leg 11 and can be switched between an open state and a retracted state; the mounting mechanism 2 is provided at the top end of the main supporting leg 11 and can be installed on a mobile terminal; the clamping mechanism 3 is provided at the bottom end of the main supporting leg 11 and can be retracted inside the main supporting leg 11. After the clamping mechanism 3 extends out of the main supporting leg 11, a clamping groove 31 is formed between the clamping mechanism 3 and the main supporting leg 11.

[0034] When the camera tripod needs to be supported on a flat surface, the secondary support legs 12 are rotated to an open position, the camera tripod is then placed on a table for support, and the mobile terminal is mounted on the mounting mechanism 2. After use, the mobile terminal is removed, and the secondary support legs 12 are then rotated to a stowed position to complete the stowage of the camera tripod. When no flat surface is available for support, the clamping mechanism 3 is pulled out from the bottom of the main support legs 11, allowing the clamping grooves 31 to clamp onto a table edge or a crossbar for normal use. The camera tripod disclosed in this application can not only be supported on a flat surface, but can also be clamped onto a table edge or a crossbar for use, resolving the limitations of desktop tripods in the prior art.

[0035] Specifically, the main support leg 11 is hollow, with a first opening 111 defined at its top. The mounting mechanism 2 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the main support leg 11 and can extend through the first opening 111. The mounting mechanism 2 slides, allowing it to be retracted into the cavity of the support leg, reducing the overall size of the camera stand when retracted. The mounting mechanism 2 includes a sliding member 21, a rotating member 22, and a mounting member. The sliding member 21 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the main support leg 11, with one end extending through the first opening 111. The extended end of the rotating member 22 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating member 22. Rotation of the rotating member 22 allows the mounting member to adjust its pitch angle, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the mobile terminal and facilitating filming. The other end of the rotating member 22 is connected to a mounting member, which can be used to mount a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or camera. In this embodiment, the mounting member utilizes an elastic clip 23, which is rotatably connected to the rotating member 22. The elastic clip 23 clamps the mobile terminal. When the elastic clip 23 rotates on the rotating member 22, it can drive the mobile terminal to rotate, thereby realizing free switching between horizontal screen shooting and vertical screen shooting.

[0036] To secure the slider 21 after it extends out of the first opening 111, the inner cavity of the slider 21 and the main support leg 11 is designed to provide damped sliding, meaning that it can be secured after sliding to any position without external interference. Alternatively, a matching positioning assembly is provided between the slider 21 and the inner cavity of the main support leg 11. When the slider 21 slides to a designated position, the positioning assembly engages and secures the slider 21. To retract the slider 21, the positioning assembly must first be released, and then the slider 21 is slid back into its original position. The positioning assembly can employ a structure comprising an elastic clip and a latch hole.

[0037] In other embodiments, the mounting member may also be a magnetic ring. In this case, the mobile terminal needs to be equipped with a magnetic module, which is directly adsorbed and fixed to the magnetic ring. In this case, the magnetic ring is fixed to the end of the rotating member 22 and can be integrally formed with the rotating member 22 or separately provided.

[0038] Furthermore, the elastic clip 23 includes a plate body 231, a first clamping arm 232 and a second clamping arm 233. The first clamping arm 232 and the second clamping arm 233 are respectively arranged at both ends of the plate body 231. The plate body 231 is rotatably connected to the rotating member 22 and can be set parallel to the extension direction of the rotating member 22. The plate body 231 can be retracted into the inner cavity of the main support leg 11 so that the first clamping arm 232 or the second clamping arm 233 blocks the first opening 111.

[0039] In this embodiment, a spring is provided within the plate 231, and the second clamping arm 233 is slidably connected to the plate 231, enabling adjustment of the spacing between the second clamping arm 233 and the first clamping arm 232. The tension of the spring ensures that the second clamping arm 233 always exerts a clamping force toward the first clamping arm 232, thereby securing the mobile terminal. A damping shaft is provided near the center of the plate 231, which is rotatably connected to the rotating member 22. The damping shaft can be infinitely adjustable, allowing the plate 231 to hover at any position. Alternatively, the damping shaft can be adjustable in gears, allowing the plate 231 to hover after every 90-degree rotation. The first clamping arm 232 is rotatably connected to the plate 231 via a rotating shaft. The plate 231 is provided with gears that allow the first clamping arm 232 to be fixed at a 90-degree position after rotation, perpendicular to the plate 231. When the elastic clamp 23 is required to clamp, the first clamping arm 232 needs to be rotated to a 90-degree position. When the elastic clip 23 needs to be stored, the plate body 231 rotates to a position parallel to the extension direction of the rotating member 22. At this time, the second clamping arm 233 needs to face upward and the first clamping arm 232 needs to face downward. The first clamping arm 232 rotates to the 0 degree position and pushes the sliding member 21 downward. The plate body 231 can be stored in the inner cavity of the main support leg 11 so that the second clamping arm 233 blocks the first opening 111.

[0040] In other embodiments, the positions of the first clamping arm 232 and the second clamping arm 233 may be interchanged.

[0041] In other embodiments, the first clamping arm 232 can be in a fixed form, that is, the first clamping arm 232 is fixed at the end of the plate body 231, the length of the first clamping arm 232 is less than the length of the first opening 111 and can be received in the first opening 111, and the length of the second clamping arm 233 is greater than the length of the first opening 111 and can abut and cover the first opening 111.

[0042] Furthermore, a second opening 112 is provided at the bottom end of the main supporting leg 11 , and the clamping mechanism 3 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the main supporting leg 11 and can extend from the second opening 112 .

[0043] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The clamping mechanism 3 includes an elastic tensioning member, a sliding rod 32, and a clamping plate 33. The sliding rod 32 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the main support leg 11. One end of the elastic tensioning member is fixed to the main support leg 11, and the other end is fixed to the sliding rod 32. The elastic tensioning member can be a spring. The elastic tensioning member tightens the clamping plate 33 and blocks the second opening 112. Pulling the clamping plate 33 causes the sliding rod 32 to extend from the second opening 112. The elastic tensioning member deforms and provides a clamping force. A clamping groove 31 is formed between the clamping plate 33 and the second opening 112. The clamping groove 31 can be clamped to the edge of a table or a crossbar, allowing the shooting stand to be fixed in various usage scenarios and facilitating the installation of shooting equipment.

[0044] As a variable embodiment, the clamping mechanism 3 can also include a sliding rod 32, a splint 33 and a locking screw. The sliding rod 32 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the main support leg 11. One end of the locking screw is connected to the main support leg 11, and the other end is connected to the splint 33. After the locking screw is loosened, the splint 33 is pulled. At this time, the sliding rod 32 extends from the second opening 112, and a clamping groove 31 is formed between the splint 33 and the second opening 112. The clamping groove 31 can be clamped on the edge of the table or the cross bar, and then the locking screw is tightened to achieve clamping and fixation of the clamping mechanism 3.

[0045] Furthermore, a pull ring 34 is provided on the clamping plate 33; and / or a handle is provided on the clamping plate 33. The pull ring 34 and the handle facilitate pulling the clamping plate 33 and clamping the clamping groove 31. The pull ring 34 is also provided with an elastic buckle to facilitate the pull ring 34 to be put on the backpack strap.

[0046] Furthermore, a hinge joint 113 and a storage position 114 are provided on one side of the main support leg 11. One end of the slave support leg 12 is connected to the hinge joint 113, and the slave support leg 12 can be stored in the storage position 114. A limit piece is provided on the hinge joint 113, and the slave support leg 12 abuts against the limit piece to limit the expansion angle between the slave support leg 12 and the main support leg 11.

[0047] In this embodiment, there are two slave support legs 12, and the main support leg 11 is roughly square. Two hinge joints 113 and two storage positions 114 are provided at the top of one side of the main support leg 11. The two storage positions 114 are arranged side by side. Each hinge joint 113 is hinged to a slave support leg 12. When the support mechanism 1 is in use, both slave support legs 12 can be rotated to the open state. At this time, the two slave support legs 12 and the main support leg 11 are enclosed to form a triangular prism structure to form a stable support. For details, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 When the support mechanism 1 needs to be stored, the two slave support legs 12 are rotated so that the slave support legs 12 are stored in the corresponding storage positions 114 and are in the stored state. In order to prevent the slave support legs 12 from opening by themselves after being stored, the hinge axis of the slave support legs 12 can be set as a damping axis.

[0048] The shooting bracket in the embodiment of the utility model can not only be used for support on a flat surface, but also can be clamped on a table edge or a crossbar for use, thus solving the problem of the limitation of use of desktop tripods in the prior art.

[0049] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model.
