Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photography and videography lamps, in particular to a roll-up cloth lamp with a soft box. Background Art
[0002] During filming, television, or short video production, lighting can enhance atmosphere, highlight character, reflect character psychology, and influence the audience's emotions. Lighting a large area is a dream for many filmmakers. However, the resulting portability and rapid on-site installation become crucial considerations.
[0003] Flat panel lights offer a large luminous area, but traditional metal structures lack the weight advantage. While all-plastic structures reduce weight, they can't reduce their size. Flexible roll-up lights offer significant advantages in this regard. They are lightweight and can be quickly folded, making it possible to illuminate large areas. Roll-up lights combine a high-brightness light source with a soft fabric to create a large luminous surface, providing soft light. These lights can be rolled up and carried like a towel, then unfolded to provide a wide-area illumination, making them ideal for applications requiring soft lighting, such as live streaming and video shooting. The roll-up light's portability and soft light effect make it a highly practical lighting tool, particularly useful in scenarios requiring quick lighting deployment and movement.
[0004] Existing roll-up lights are often used in conjunction with softboxes. To install, first unroll the light and secure it with a support frame at its four corners. Then, attach the softbox frame using Velcro. Finally, attach the softbox fabric and softlight grid to the softbox frame using Velcro. When not in use, disassemble the light by following the reverse steps. For inexperienced users, installation is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0033] 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.
[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , as an embodiment of the present invention, a roll-up cloth lamp with a soft box is provided, which includes a base 1, an outer frame 2 and a soft light component 3. The base 1 includes a flexible base cloth 11 and a flexible lamp body 12. One side of the flexible base cloth 11 is a mounting surface 111. The flexible lamp body 12 is fixed to the mounting surface 111. The corners of the flexible base cloth 11 are provided with connecting blocks 13; the outer frame 2 includes a support rod 21 and a connecting edge 22. The connecting edge 22 connects two adjacent support rods 21. The support rod 21 is provided on the connecting block 13 and is rotatably connected to the connecting block 13. The support rod 21 switches between a first position and a second position. When the support rod 21 is in the first position, the support rod 21 is perpendicular to the plane where the flexible base cloth 11 is located so that the connecting edge 22 encloses a frame body 23. When the support rod 21 is in the second position, the support rod 21 is parallel to the plane where the flexible base cloth 11 is located; when the connecting edge 22 encloses the frame body 23, the soft light component 3 is connected to the frame body 23.
[0035] When the roll-up light is needed, first unfold the flexible base fabric 11 and simultaneously unfold and flatten the flexible lamp body 12. The flexible base fabric 11 is then mounted on the bracket and the support rods 21 are rotated about the connecting block 13. When rotated to the first position, the support rods 21 are perpendicular to the plane of the flexible base fabric 11. After all the support rods 21 are rotated to the first position, the connecting edges 22 are formed into a frame 23. The soft light assembly 3 connected to the frame 23 is also unfolded. The roll-up light is now installed, eliminating the need for a softbox. This makes installation simple and convenient, allowing even inexperienced users to quickly and efficiently install the light. To store the roll-up light, first remove the flexible base fabric 11 from the bracket and place it on the ground. Then, rotate the support rods 21 about the connecting block 13. When rotated to the second position, the support rods 21 are parallel to the plane of the flexible base fabric 11. The flexible base fabric 11 is then reeled in, simultaneously reeling in the flexible lamp body 12 and completing the storage of the roll-up light.
[0036] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 The flexible base fabric 11 has a square structure, and the four corners of the flexible base fabric 11 are provided with connecting blocks 13. The support rods 21 are divided into two groups. The two groups of support rods 21 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the flexible base fabric 11, and the two support rods 21 in the same group are arranged on the same side of the flexible base fabric 11. The support rods 21 in the same group are all rotated toward the inner side of the flexible base fabric 11 so that the support rods 21 are parallel to the plane where the flexible base fabric 11 is located. When rolling up the cloth lamp, first put all the support rods 21 in the second position, and then start rolling up the flexible base fabric 11 from the end where one group of support rods 21 is located. When rolling up, the flexible lamp body 12 is on the inside and the flexible base fabric 11 is on the outside. The flexible base fabric 11 supports and protects the flexible lamp body 12. After the flexible base fabric 11 is rolled up, it can be fixed with a tie rope or directly put into a packaging bag.
[0037] In other embodiments, the flexible base fabric 11 may also be configured in a triangular or other irregular polygonal shape. In this case, a connecting block 13 is required to be provided at each corner of the flexible base fabric 11, and each connecting block 13 is rotatably connected to a support rod 21. In this case, the rotational storage position of the support rod 21 must be considered to prevent the support rod 21 from interfering with the winding of the flexible base fabric 11.
[0038] In other embodiments, the flexible base fabric 11 may also be configured to be circular or elliptical. In this case, at least three connecting blocks 13 are provided on the outer edge of the flexible base fabric 11, and each connecting block 13 is rotatably connected to a support rod 21. In this case, the rotational storage position of the support rod 21 must be considered to prevent the support rod 21 from interfering with the winding of the flexible base fabric 11.
[0039] Furthermore, the support rod 21 includes a rod body 211 and a rotating portion 212. The rod body 211 is fixed to the rotating portion 212, which is rotatably connected to the connecting block 13. The rotating portion 212 is also provided with a stopper, and the connecting block 13 is provided with an adapter. When the support rod 21 is rotated to a position perpendicular to the plane of the flexible base fabric 11, the stopper engages with the adapter, thereby maintaining the support rod 21 in the first position, thereby maintaining the connection edge 22 and the soft light assembly 3 in the deployed state.
[0040] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The rotating portion 212 is provided with a rotating shaft 214, and a snap-fitting boss 215 is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 214. The snap-fitting boss 215 protrudes from the circumference of the rotating shaft 214. The connecting block 13 includes a lower shell 134 and an upper shell 133. The upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134 are interlocked at the corners of the flexible base fabric 11. The flexible base fabric 11 is sandwiched between the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134. After the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134 are fixedly connected by screws, the connecting block 13 is fixed to the flexible base fabric 11. A mounting groove is also provided between the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134. After the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134 are snapped together, the two mounting grooves enclose the mounting hole 132. Before the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134 are snap-fitted and installed, the rotating part 212 is first installed, and the rotating shaft 214 and the snap-fitting boss 215 of the rotating part 212 are installed into the corresponding mounting groove. After the rotating part 212 is installed, the upper shell 133 and the lower shell 134 are snap-fitted and locked. At this time, the rotating shaft 214 can rotate in the mounting hole 132 without being separated from the mounting hole 132. The limiting member adopts a limiting protrusion 213, which is made of elastic material. The adapter adopts a limiting hole 131, and the limiting protrusion 213 can be snapped into the limiting hole 131. When the support rod 21 is rotated to the first position, the limiting protrusion 213 is snapped into the limiting hole 131. At this time, the support rod 21 is kept fixed and cannot rotate without external force.
[0041] As a variant embodiment, the rotating shaft 214 can also be provided on the connecting block 13, with the mounting hole 132 provided on the rotating portion 212. In this case, the connecting block 13 can be integral, rather than being separate. To facilitate installation of the rotating shaft 214, the rotating portion 212 is divided into two upper and lower parts. These upper and lower parts can be snap-fitted together, facilitating connection between the rotating shaft 214 and the mounting hole 132.
[0042] As a variable embodiment, the positions of the limiting protrusion 213 and the limiting hole 131 can be interchanged, that is, the limiting member adopts the limiting hole 131 and the adapter adopts the limiting protrusion 213 .
[0043] Furthermore, the other side of the flexible base fabric 11 is a support surface 112, and a mounting piece is provided on the support surface 112 or the connecting block 13, and the mounting piece can be installed on the bracket. The bracket generally adopts a cross, and the cross can support the corners of the flexible base fabric 11, so that the flexible base fabric 11 is stable in the expanded state and the flexible lamp body 12 is stable in the expanded state, which is convenient for fill light use. In this embodiment, the mounting piece adopts a cloth bag, and the cloth bag is provided at the corner position of the support surface 112. The end of the cross can be inserted into the cloth bag to support the flexible base fabric 11 and stabilize it in the expanded state. The cross is an elastic metal frame that can undergo a certain elastic deformation to adapt to the installation of flexible base fabrics 11 of different sizes.
[0044] In other embodiments, a slot is provided on the support block, which serves as a mounting member, and the end of the cross can be inserted into the slot to support and stabilize the flexible base fabric 11 in the unfolded state. The cross is an elastic metal frame that can undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation to accommodate the installation of flexible base fabrics 11 of different sizes.
[0045] Furthermore, the connecting edge 22 is made of a flexible material. Specifically, an opaque black nylon material can be used, and the soft light component 3 can be fixed to the frame 23 enclosed by the connecting edge 22 by means of a Velcro connection, so as to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the soft light component 3. The soft light component 3 adopts a soft light cloth and / or a soft light grille. The soft light component 3 can adopt either the soft light cloth or the soft light grille, or both at the same time. It can be selected according to actual use requirements. Soft light cloth is a soft cloth used for lighting. It utilizes its good properties of scattering, absorbing and diffusing light to make the light passing through the cloth softer, more uniform and natural, thereby achieving a soft lighting effect. The main function of the soft light grille is to control the direction of light and make the light more concentrated, so that the light is more targeted and enhances the three-dimensional sense and layering of the subject.
[0046] 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.
