Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photography and videography, in particular to a reflector. Background Art

[0002] With the development of photography and film and television industries, reflectors, as an important lighting effect accessory, are widely used in shooting to improve lighting effects and increase the softness of light.

[0003] Large reflectors on the market usually use a ring-shaped flexible frame to support the reflective film material to form a large reflective surface to meet different shooting needs.

[0004] However, this design requires a wraparound frame to fold the reflector, which results in creases on the reflective surface. Furthermore, due to the randomness of each fold, the creases are inconsistently positioned. Over time, these creases significantly reduce reflective performance, affecting image quality. Therefore, an improved reflector design is urgently needed to maintain a good reflective effect after multiple folds. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the technical problem that the traditional large reflector affects the shooting effect after being stored and folded multiple times.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a reflective plate, including: a flexible air cushion, which is provided with an inflation cavity inside; after the inflation cavity is inflated, the flexible air cushion is filled and expanded; the surface of the flexible air cushion forms a reflective surface for reflecting light; a plurality of drawn fibers are provided; the plurality of drawn fibers are all located in the inflation cavity of the flexible air cushion; the two ends of the drawn fibers are respectively connected to the inner walls on opposite sides of the flexible air cushion, so as to pull the inner wall of the flexible air cushion in the opposite direction of the expansion direction of the flexible air cushion.

[0007] In some examples of the present application, the reflective plate includes an air valve, which is arranged on the flexible air cushion and communicates with the inflation cavity; the air valve is used to connect to an external device to inflate or deflate the flexible air cushion.

[0008] In some examples of the present application, the flexible air cushion is a plate-like structure, which includes a first end face and a second end face relative to each other; the drawn fiber includes a first end and a second end relative to each other; the first end of the drawn fiber is connected to the first end face, and the second end of the drawn fiber is connected to the second end face, so that the drawn fiber can pull the first end face and the second end face of the flexible air cushion.

[0009] In some examples of the present application, reflective cloths that are bonded to each other are provided on the first end face and / or the second end face of the flexible air cushion, and the side of the reflective cloth facing away from the flexible air cushion forms the reflective surface for reflecting light.

[0010] In some examples of the present application, a reflective coating is coated on the first end surface and / or the second end surface of the flexible air cushion to form the reflective surface on the first end surface and / or the second end surface for reflecting light.

[0011] In some examples of the present application, the color of the reflective surface is one or a combination of multiple colors selected from the group consisting of gold, silver, black, white, blue, and green.

[0012] In some examples of the present application, the plurality of drawn fibers are evenly arranged between the first end face and the second end face; and a line connecting the first end of the drawn fiber and the second end of the drawn fiber is perpendicular to the first end face and the second end face.

[0013] In some examples of the present application, a plurality of the drawn fibers are evenly distributed between the first end face and the second end face; the connection point between the first end of the drawn fiber and the first end face and the connection point between the second end of the drawn fiber and the second end face are staggered with each other, so that the inclination angle between the line connecting the first end and the second end of the drawn fiber and the first end face and the second end face is an acute angle.

[0014] In some examples of the present application, the drawn fibers are provided in multiple groups, each drawing group includes multiple drawn fibers, the inclination angles of the multiple drawn fibers in each drawing group are the same, and the spacing between two adjacent drawn fibers is the same; the inclination angles of the drawn fibers in multiple drawing groups are different.

[0015] In some examples of the present application, the drawing fibers of different drawing groups are interlaced with each other.

[0016] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0017] The present application provides a reflector, comprising a flexible air cushion and brushed fibers. The surface of the flexible air cushion forms a reflective surface for reflecting light; and the brushed fibers are arranged in the inflation cavity of the flexible air cushion, which can significantly enhance the structural strength of the flexible air cushion. Even if the area of the reflector is large, the pulling effect of the brushed fibers can effectively prevent the flexible air cushion from deformation, thereby improving the flatness of the reflective surface and enhancing the light reflection effect. When in use, the user only needs to inflate the air cushion, and it can be quickly expanded and unfolded. When it needs to be stored, the reflector can be easily rolled up by simply releasing the gas, and there will be no creases on the reflective surface. It ensures the shooting effect after multiple storage, greatly improving the user experience. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

These descriptions are appropriate when these elements are in the positions shown in the drawings. If the descriptions of the positions of these elements change, the indications of these directions will also change accordingly.

[0030] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the described features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0031] Traditional reflectors are typically folded and stored using a retractable frame. Due to the randomness of each fold, the creases are not always in the same position. Over time, these creases can significantly reduce the reflective effect and affect the quality of your photos.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment provides a reflective plate 100 , which includes a flexible air cushion 10 and a drawn fiber 30 .

[0033] The flexible air cushion 10 has a reflective surface 11 formed on its surface for reflecting light. An inflatable chamber is provided within the flexible air cushion 10. When the chamber is inflated, the flexible air cushion 10 expands. Multiple drawn fibers 30 are provided; each of the multiple drawn fibers 30 is located within the inflatable chamber of the flexible air cushion 10. The ends of the drawn fibers 30 are connected to opposite inner walls of the flexible air cushion 10, respectively, to pull the flexible air cushion 10 when the chamber is inflated.

[0034] Specifically, the outer surface of the flexible air cushion 10 in this embodiment is formed with a reflective surface 11, which is used to receive and reflect light from the photographic lighting system so that the reflected light is irradiated onto the illuminated object, thereby improving the lighting effect of the illuminated object.

[0035] An air-filled cavity is provided in the flexible air cushion 10. When the air-filled cavity of the flexible air cushion 10 is filled with air, the flexible air cushion 10 unfolds to form a plate-like structure, and the reflective surface 11 of the flexible air cushion also unfolds flatly to reflect light. After the air in the air-filled cavity of the flexible air cushion 10 is released, the flexible air cushion 10 automatically deflates. At this time, the user can roll up the reflector 100 into a cylindrical shape for easy carrying. By rolling up the reflector 100, no creases will be generated on the reflective surface 11 of the reflector 100. Even after multiple folding and unfolding, no creases will be generated on the reflective surface 11, effectively ensuring the reflective effect of the reflective surface 11.

[0036] The flexible air cushion 10 is provided with a plurality of drawn fibers 30. The ends of the drawn fibers 30 are connected to opposite inner walls of the flexible air cushion 10, pulling the inner walls of the flexible air cushion 10 in the opposite direction of its expansion. This allows for more gas to be introduced into the flexible air cushion 10 during inflation. This increases the gas pressure within the flexible air cushion 10, resulting in a higher structural strength for the inflated flexible air cushion 10, capable of supporting and deploying various large-area reflective surfaces 11.

[0037] Furthermore, by drawing the opposite inner wall of the flexible air cushion 10 with a plurality of drawn fibers 30 , only tiny concave spots are formed on the surface of the flexible air cushion 10 , which does not affect the overall flatness of the reflective surface 11 and ensures the reflective effect of the reflective surface 11 .

[0038] See also Figure 1 In this embodiment, the reflector 100 includes an air valve 20. The air valve 20 is provided on the flexible air cushion 10 and communicates with the inflation chamber. The air valve 20 can be connected to an external device to inflate or deflate the flexible air cushion 10.

[0039] Specifically, the air valve 20 is a convenient inflation / deflation device. It communicates with the inflation chamber of the flexible air cushion 10 via its interface. Users can inflate the flexible air cushion 10 directly through the air valve 20 using an external device, such as a manual or electric air pump. When not in use, the air valve 20 can be opened to quickly deflate the air, facilitating storage and transport. The air valve 20 is positioned at a corner of the flexible air cushion 10 to prevent it from affecting the reflective surface 11.

[0040] See also Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the flexible air cushion 10 is a plate-like structure. The flexible air cushion 10 includes a first end surface 12 and a second end surface 13. The drawn fiber 30 includes a first end 31 and a second end 32. The first end 31 of the drawn fiber 30 is connected to the first end surface 12, and the second end 32 of the drawn fiber 30 is connected to the second end surface 13, so that the drawn fiber 30 can pull the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13 of the flexible air cushion 10.

[0041] Specifically, the flexible air cushion 10 can be formed by interconnecting two layers of base fabric to form a closed, inflatable cavity. The upper layer of base fabric can form the first end surface 12, and the lower layer of base fabric can form the second end surface 13. The base fabric and the drawn fiber 30 disposed therebetween can be made of materials such as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or polyethylene (PE), which are flexible and wear-resistant, capable of maintaining the stability of the flexible air cushion 10 in the inflated state.

[0042] In some embodiments, the plate-like structure formed by the flexible air cushion 10 can be a rectangular plate, a circular plate, an elliptical plate, a star-shaped plate or other special-shaped plates; the shape of the flexible air cushion 10 can be adjusted accordingly according to actual usage requirements to adapt to different shooting scenes.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first end surface 12 and / or the second end surface 13 of the flexible air cushion 10 are coated with a reflective coating, so that the first end surface 12 and / or the second end surface 13 form a reflective surface 11 for reflecting light.

[0044] Specifically, the reflective coating can be made of a high-reflectivity material, such as silver, metal oxide coating, or micro-bead reflective coating. These materials can achieve a light reflection efficiency of over 90% when reflecting light, ensuring that the outer surface of the flexible air cushion 10 has a good reflective effect under various light sources. Furthermore, the reflective coating is applied to the flexible air cushion 10, forming an integrated structure with the reflective surface 11. This prevents the reflective surface 11 from detaching from the flexible air cushion 10, avoiding the problem of the reflective surface 11 falling off due to ambient temperature changes or frequent use, thereby ensuring a long service life and stable reflective effect.

[0045] In some embodiments, reflective cloths are attached to the first end surface 12 and / or the second end surface 13 of the flexible air cushion 10 , and the side of the reflective cloth facing away from the flexible air cushion 10 forms a reflective surface 11 for reflecting light.

[0046] Specifically, the reflective fabric is a thin film material capable of reflecting light. It can be attached using methods such as Velcro, adhesive, or magnetic attachment to ensure a secure connection between the reflective fabric and the flexible air cushion 10. During repeated inflation and deflation of the air cushion, the reflective fabric maintains a secure fit, thereby ensuring the stability of the reflective effect. Furthermore, the flexible air cushion 10 and the reflective fabric are separate components. When a different reflective effect is desired, the reflective fabric can be removed from the end surface of the flexible air cushion 10 to replace a different reflective fabric, enhancing the convenience of the reflective panel 100.

[0047] In some embodiments, the color of the reflective surface 11 can be one or a combination of multiple colors selected from the group consisting of gold, silver, black, white, blue, and green.

[0048] Among them, the reflective surface 11 of the flexible air cushion 10 can be realized by applying reflective coatings of different colors or connecting reflective cloths of different colors. The golden reflective surface 11 has a warmer tone and can reflect light softly, increasing the warmth and softness of the light in the picture. The silver reflective surface 11 has a higher reflectivity and can reflect strong light, making the light brighter and more uniform. The black reflective surface 11 is mainly used to absorb part of the light and play a role in weakening the light. The white reflective surface 11 can scatter light evenly, making the light reflection softer and not producing obvious light spots or shadows. It is suitable for large-area light supplement. The blue and green reflective surfaces 11 can be used to produce special shooting effects, especially in film and television shooting, to adjust the atmosphere of the body light by reflecting colors. Of course, the reflective surface 11 can also choose reflective surfaces 11 of other colors according to the use requirements of the environment.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13 of the flexible air cushion 10 can be designed with different colors. For example, one side can be gold and the other side can be silver. Users can quickly switch between them to achieve different light reflection effects based on their shooting needs. Furthermore, the single-sided reflective surface 11 of the flexible air cushion 10 can also be designed with color zoning, with some areas being gold and others being silver, to more flexibly adjust the light reflection effect.

[0050] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, the plurality of drawn fibers 30 are evenly arranged between the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13 , and a line connecting the first end 31 of the drawn fiber 30 and the second end 32 of the drawn fiber 30 is perpendicular to the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13 .

[0051] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, when the flexible air cushion 10 is inflated, the drawn fibers 30 are evenly arranged between the opposing inner walls of the first end face 12 and the second end face 13. The ends of the drawn fibers 30 are perpendicularly connected to the first end face 12 and the second end face 13, forming a stable support structure. At this point, the overall shape of the flexible air cushion 10 remains flat, and the force applied to each connection point is even. The surface of the flexible air cushion 10 is relatively flat, without large depressions or protrusions. This is particularly suitable for applications requiring large reflective areas.

[0052] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, a plurality of drawn fibers 30 are evenly distributed between the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13. The connection point between the first end 31 of the drawn fiber 30 and the first end surface 12 and the connection point between the second end 32 of the drawn fiber 30 and the second end surface 13 are staggered, so that the inclination angle between the line connecting the first end 31 and the second end 32 of the drawn fiber 30 and the first end surface 12 and the second end surface 13 is an acute angle.

[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the drawn fibers 30 are evenly arranged between the first end face 12 and the second end face 13, and the drawn fibers 30 are connected to the inner walls of the first end face 12 and the second end face 13 at a certain angle A. By changing the arrangement angle A of the drawn fibers 30, the direction of the tension between the first end face 12 and the second end face 13 can be changed. In some usage environments, the first end face 12 and the second end face 13 of the flexible air cushion 10 will be subjected to shear forces parallel to the end faces but in different directions. At this time, the internally inclined drawn fibers 30 can provide a part of the horizontal component force to prevent the first end face 12 and the second end face 13 from being misaligned with each other, so as to keep the structure of the flexible air cushion 10 unchanged to the greatest extent.

[0054] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the drawn fibers 30 are provided in multiple groups, each group including multiple drawn fibers 30. The multiple drawn fibers 30 in each group have the same inclination angle. The spacing between adjacent drawn fibers 30 is the same. The inclination angles of the drawn fibers 30 in the multiple groups are different. Furthermore, the drawn fibers 30 in different groups can be staggered.

[0055] Specifically, the drawn fibers 30 are arranged in multiple groups. Each group of drawn fibers 30 has the same inclination angle A and spacing, while different groups of drawn fibers 30 have different inclination angles and can intersect with each other. The two groups of drawn fibers 30 provide tension in different directions to the flexible air cushion 10, thereby enhancing the strength of a specific portion of the upper portion of the flexible air cushion 10. For example, where the flexible air cushion 10 is equipped with external suspension straps, multiple groups of different drawn fibers 30 can be interlaced to prevent the straps from stretching the flexible air cushion 10 and causing deformation.

[0056] In summary, this embodiment provides a reflector 100, comprising a flexible air cushion 10 and a brushed fiber 30. The surface of the flexible air cushion 10 forms a reflective surface 11 for reflecting light. The brushed fiber 30 is disposed in the inflation cavity of the flexible air cushion 10, which can significantly enhance the structural strength of the flexible air cushion 10. Even if the area of the reflector 100 is large, the pulling effect of the brushed fiber 30 can effectively prevent the flexible air cushion 10 from deforming, thereby improving the flatness of the reflective surface 11 and enhancing the light reflection effect. Moreover, when using, the user only needs to inflate the air cushion to quickly expand and unfold it. When it needs to be stored, the reflector 100 can be easily rolled up by simply releasing the gas, and the reflective surface 11 will not produce creases, which ensures the shooting effect after multiple storages and greatly improves the user experience.
