DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] If certain terms are used in the specification and claims to refer to specific components, those skilled in the art should understand that hardware manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. The specification and claims do not distinguish components based on differences in name, but rather on differences in their functionality. For example, the term "including" used throughout the specification and claims is an open-ended term and should be interpreted as meaning "including but not limited to." "Substantially" means that those skilled in the art can solve the technical problem within a certain error range and achieve a substantial technical effect.

[0030] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a switching device 100, which can be applied to sports equipment 200, and is used to switch a shooting device 303 (eg Figure 7 shown) is connected to the sports equipment 200.

[0031] The sports equipment 200 may include a mobile carrier 201, and the adapter 100 is used to be detachably connected to the mobile carrier 201, so that the shooting device 303 can be connected to the sports equipment 200 through the adapter 100. This specification does not limit the specific type of sports equipment 200. For example, the sports equipment 200 may include any one of the following equipment: ski equipment, roller skate equipment, surfing equipment, etc. Correspondingly, the mobile carrier 201 of the sports equipment 200 may include any one of the following structures: skateboard, snowboard, surfboard. In this embodiment, the sports equipment 200 is ski equipment, and the mobile carrier 201 is a snowboard. The adapter 100 is used to connect the shooting device to the mobile carrier 201, so that the user can take pictures when using the sports equipment 200, without the need for the user to hold the device, which saves effort and has a better shooting effect.

[0032] Please also see Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, the adapter 100 may include a mounting member 10, a connecting mechanism 30, and an angle adjustment mechanism 50. The mounting member 10 is used to connect to the sports equipment 200, for example, to the mobile carrier 201. The connecting mechanism 30 is used to connect to the camera 303, and is used to cooperate with the mounting member 10 to connect the camera 303 to the sports equipment 200. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 is disposed between the mounting member 10 and the connecting mechanism 30. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 about the first axis and / or the second axis to adjust the angle of the camera. Specifically in some embodiments, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to have at least one rotational degree of freedom relative to the mounting member 10. For example, when the connecting mechanism 30 has one rotational degree of freedom relative to the mounting member 10, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 around the first axis or the second axis to adjust the rotation angle of the one degree of freedom of the connecting mechanism 30; for another example, when the connecting mechanism 30 has two rotational degrees of freedom relative to the mounting member 10, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 around the first axis and the second axis to adjust the rotation angle of the two degrees of freedom of the connecting mechanism 30, wherein "rotating around the first axis and the second axis" should not be narrowly understood as "rotating around the first axis and the second axis" "simultaneously", but should be understood as the connecting mechanism 30 having the ability to rotate around the first axis and the second axis relative to the mounting member 10, and when rotating, it can rotate around the first axis and the second axis simultaneously, or can rotate around the first axis and the second axis separately. Therefore, when the adapter device 100 provided in this embodiment is applied to the shooting device 303, it can meet the multi-angle viewing range without the user having to adjust the arm angle himself, and the operation is more convenient. Specifically in the figure, the first axis can be axis A in the figure, and the second axis can be axis B in the figure.

[0033] The mounting member 10 is connected to the mobile carrier 201, and the connecting mechanism 30 is connected to the mounting member 10 via the angle adjustment mechanism 50. The user can mount the camera on the connecting mechanism 30 and adjust the angle of the camera via the angle adjustment mechanism 50 to meet shooting needs. Taking the mobile carrier 201 as a snowboard as an example, the camera can be mounted on one end of the snowboard via the adapter 100, for example, at the rear end of the snowboard. While the user is skiing, the camera connected to the rear end of the snowboard via the adapter 100 can capture the user's third-person perspective. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 can accommodate a multi-angle framing range. Whether during or before and after shooting, the user does not need to hold the camera, making it easy to store, saving effort, and achieving better shooting results.

[0034] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, terms such as "mounted," "connected," "connect," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, these terms may refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; internal communication between two components; or mere surface contact. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] In this embodiment, the mounting member 10 is used to be fixed on the mobile carrier 201. The mounting member 10 may be provided with connection holes, connection grooves and other structures for cooperating with the mobile carrier 201. As an example, the mounting member 10 may be a mounting plate, which may be a circular mounting plate, a square mounting plate, or a special-shaped mounting plate according to the actual installation and matching conditions. The mounting member 10 is provided with a mounting groove 12 for passing a fixing member such as a screw, and the mounting groove 12 passes through the mounting member 10 along the thickness direction of the mounting member 10. There may be multiple mounting grooves 12, and the shapes of the multiple mounting grooves 12 may be the same or different. For example, the multiple mounting grooves 12 may include structures such as strip grooves and circular grooves.

[0036] This specification does not limit the specific installation method between the mounting member 10 and the mobile carrier 201. For example, the mounting member 10 can replace the existing structure on the mobile carrier 201. Taking the mobile carrier 201 as a snowboard as an example, the mobile carrier 201 may include a board 2012 and a fixing 2014 connected to the board 2012. The fixing 2014 is used to fix the user's snow boots. The fixing 2014 can be fixed to the board 2012 by a disc with disc teeth. As an example, the mounting member 10 can replace the disc with disc teeth originally in the fixing member 2014. The mounting member 10 is provided with disc teeth. The mounting member 10 is clamped between the fixing member 2014 and the board 2012 and serves as a connecting member between the fixing member 2014 and the board 2012. The mounting member 10 replaces the original structure of the mobile carrier 201 to avoid raising the user's shoe upper when the user uses the sports equipment 200, thereby avoiding a height difference between the user's left and right feet. The mounting member 10 is further provided with a cantilever to extend out of the surface of the plate body to connect the angle adjustment mechanism 50 and the connection mechanism 30 .

[0037] In this embodiment, mounting member 10 can be configured as a flat plate, with mounting slot 12 designed as an elongated slot. Mounting member 10 is installed between the snowboard body 2012 and binding 2014. The existing screws on binding 2014 pass through mounting slot 12, firmly clamping mounting member 10 between binding 2014 and snowboard body 2012. In this embodiment, mounting member 10 does not need to have a cantilever, reducing connection wobble. This mounting configuration also allows mounting member 10 to be compatible with a variety of snowboards and / or bindings.

[0038] The angle adjustment mechanism 50 is connected between the mounting member 10 and the connecting mechanism 30 and is used to adjust the angle of the connecting mechanism 30 relative to the mounting member 10. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 may have only one degree of freedom of adjustment, for example, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 about the first axis A or the second axis B. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 may also have two degrees of freedom of adjustment, for example, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 can include two adjustment components. The two adjustment components can respectively drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 about the first axis A and the second axis B, wherein the first axis A and the second axis B intersect, for example, the first axis A and the second axis B are perpendicular to each other.

[0039] Please also see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 may include a first angle adjustment component 52, which is disposed between the mounting member 10 and the connecting mechanism 30. The first angle adjustment component 52 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 around the first axis A. This specification does not limit the specific direction of the first axis A. For example, in the case of the mobile carrier 201 (such as Figure 1 When the mounting member 10 is placed on a plane, the axial direction of the first axis A can be a vertical direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane, or a horizontal direction parallel to the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, the first axis A intersects the plane where the mounting member 10 is located.

[0040] The first angle adjustment assembly 52 may include a first connector 521, a second connector 523, and a first fastener 525. The first connector 521 is connected to the mounting member 10. The first fastener 525 is movably connected to the first connector 521 and the second connector 523. The second connector 523 is capable of rotating relative to the first connector 521 about the first axis A. The first connector 521 and the second connector 523 rotate relative to each other to achieve angular adjustment of the connection mechanism 30 about the first axis A. The first fastener 525 is used to secure the first connector 521 and the second connector 523 after their relative position is adjusted, thereby maintaining connection stability during filming.

[0041] The first connector 521 is fixedly connected to the mounting member 10. For example, the first connector 521 can be fixedly connected to the mounting member 10 by a fixing screw. One end of the mounting member 10 is provided with a mounting hole for mating with the first connector 521. The second connector 523 is connected to the connecting mechanism 30. This specification does not limit the rotational connection between the second connector 523 and the first connector 521. For example, the first connector 521 and the second connector 523 can be a contact-type rotational connection, and the relationship between the two can be a sleeve / plug-in relationship. Alternatively, the first connector 521 and the second connector 523 can be a non-contact rotational connection. For example, the second connector 523 can be movably connected to the first connector 521 via the first fastener 525. The first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 are indirectly connected. When the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 are spaced apart from each other, the two can rotate relative to each other. When the first fastener 525 moves relative to the first connecting member 521, the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 can be close to each other and abut against each other. The second connecting member 523 and the first connecting member 521 are locked and no longer rotate relative to each other due to the action of friction.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first connecting member 521 has a first gear tooth portion 5212, and the second connecting member 523 has a second gear tooth portion 5232. When the first fastener 525 locks the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523, the first connecting member 521 approaches the second connecting member 523 along the direction of the first axis A, and the first gear tooth portion 5212 and the second gear tooth portion 5232 engage. The engagement of the first gear tooth portion 5212 and the second gear tooth portion 5232 improves the secureness of the locking of the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523.

[0043] This specification does not limit the locking method of the first fastener 525 on the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523. For example, the first fastener 525 can be sleeved on the second connecting member 523 and connected to the first connecting member 521 by a snap. When the first fastener 525 approaches the first connecting member 521 and is buckled on the first connecting member 521, the second connecting member 523 is abutted against the first connecting member 521, and the first gear tooth portion 5212 and the second gear tooth portion 5232 are engaged.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first fastener 525 is threadedly connected to the peripheral wall of the first connecting member 521. The first fastener 525 is generally cylindrical with two through ends. The first fastener 525 is sleeved onto the outside of the second connecting member 523. The inner wall of the first fastener 525 may be provided with a limiting step, and the outer wall of the second connecting member 523 may also be provided with a limiting portion that cooperates with the limiting step of the first fastener 525. When the first fastener 525 is tightened relative to the first connecting member 521, the first fastener 525 drives the second connecting member 523 toward the first connecting member 521 via the limiting step, achieving a state of mutual engagement between the two. When the first fastener 525 is loosened relative to the first connecting member 521, the second connecting member 523 can rotate relative to the first fastener 525 and the first connecting member 521, thereby adjusting the angle of the connecting mechanism 30. To facilitate the user's tightening of the first fastener 525, in this embodiment, a protruding handle may be provided on the peripheral wall of the first fastener 525.

[0045] This specification does not limit the range of angles within which the second connecting member 523 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate around the first axis A. For example, in this embodiment, the second connecting member 523 can rotate around the first axis A at an angle between 0° and 360°. In other embodiments, a limiting structure can be provided between the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 to limit the rotation angle of the second connecting member 523 around the first axis A. As an example, see Figure 5 A limiting groove 5214 can be provided on the side of the first connecting member 521 facing the second connecting member 523, and a limiting protrusion 5231 can be provided on the side of the second connecting member 523 facing the first connecting member 521. The limiting protrusion 5231 protrudes relative to the second gear tooth portion 5232. When the first fastener 525 is loosened, the first gear tooth portion 5212 and the second gear tooth portion 5232 are spaced apart from each other. The limiting protrusion 5231 is movably limited within the limiting groove 5214 and can slide within the limiting groove 5214 about the first axis A. The central angle of the limiting groove 5214 of the first connecting member 521 can be 60°, 90°, 180°, etc.

[0046] In this embodiment, the first angle adjustment assembly 52 may further include a first elastic member 527 and a first limiting member 529. The first elastic member 527 is disposed between the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523. One end of the first limiting member 529 is connected to the second connecting member 523, and the other end is movably limited to the first connecting member 521. When the first fastener 525 is tightened, the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 compress the first elastic member 527. When the first fastener 525 is loosened, the first elastic member 527 releases its elastic potential energy, lifting the second connecting member 523 to separate the second connecting member 523 from the first connecting member 521, allowing the second connecting member 523 to rotate relative to the first connecting member 521. The first elastic member 527 can lift the second connecting member 523 when adjustment is required, eliminating the need for the user to manually lift it, thereby improving ease of use. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the first elastic member 527. For example, the first elastic member 527 may be a spring, a torsion spring, a coil spring, or the like. In this embodiment, the first elastic member 527 is a spring. The second connecting member 523 may be provided with a mounting space for accommodating the first elastic member 527 to limit the position of the first elastic member 527 and improve the stability of the first elastic member 527 during use.

[0047] The first stopper 529 is disposed between the first connecting member 521 and the second connecting member 523 to prevent the first fastener 525 from completely separating from the first connecting member 521. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the first stopper 529. For example, the first stopper 529 may be a stopper pin, a stopper screw, or the like. In this embodiment, the first stopper 529 is a stopper bolt. The stopper bolt is threadedly connected to the second connecting member 523, with its bolt head located on the side of the first connecting member 521 facing away from the second connecting member 523. The first connecting member 521 may be provided with a mounting space for accommodating the stopper bolt. When the first fastener 525 is tightened relative to the first connecting member 521, the bolt head of the first stopper 529 moves within the mounting space along the first axis A. When the bolt head abuts against the first connecting member 521, the first fastener 525 remains threadedly connected to the first connecting member 521. The first stopper 529 enhances the stability of the first angle adjustment assembly 52.

[0048] Please also see Figure 4 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the angle adjustment mechanism 50 further includes a second angle adjustment assembly 54, which is disposed between the first angle adjustment assembly 52 and the connecting mechanism 30. The second angle adjustment assembly 54 is configured to drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate relative to the mounting member 10 about the second axis B. The axial direction of the second axis B is parallel to the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, the second axis B is substantially parallel to the plane on which the mounting member 10 is located.

[0049] The second angle adjustment assembly 54 includes a third connecting member 541 and a second fastening member 543. The second fastening member 543 is movably connected to the second connecting member 523 and the third connecting member 541. The third connecting member 541 is rotatable relative to the second connecting member 523 about the second axis B. The second fastening member 543 is capable of locking the second connecting member 523 and the third connecting member 541. The third connecting member 541 and the second connecting member 523 rotate relative to each other to achieve angular adjustment of the connection mechanism 30 about the second axis B. The second fastening member 543 is used to secure the third connecting member 541 and the second connecting member 523 after their relative position is adjusted, thereby maintaining connection stability during filming.

[0050] The second connecting member 523 can include a first connecting portion 5234 and a second connecting portion 5236 that are interconnected. The first connecting portion 5234 is disposed within the first fastener 525, and the second gear tooth portion 5232 is disposed on the side of the first connecting portion 5234 that faces the first connecting member 521. The second connecting portion 5236 is connected to the end of the first connecting portion 5234 that faces away from the second gear tooth portion 5232 and is located outside the first fastener 525. The second connecting portion 5236 is configured to rotatably engage with the third connecting member 541. The third connecting member 541 is connected to the second connecting portion 5236 via the second fastener 543. The third connecting member 541 and the second connecting portion 5236 are disposed side by side on the second axis B.

[0051] This specification does not limit the rotational connection method between the second connecting portion 5236 and the third connecting member 541. For example, the second connecting portion 5236 and the third connecting member 541 can be a contact-type rotational connection, and the two can be in a sleeve-type relationship. Alternatively, the second connecting portion 5236 and the third connecting member 541 can be a non-contact rotational connection. For example, the third connecting member 541 is connected to the second connecting portion 5236 via the second fastener 543, and the second connecting portion 5236 and the third connecting member 541 are indirectly connected. When the second connecting portion 5236 and the third connecting member 541 are spaced apart from each other, the two can rotate relative to each other. When the second fastener 543 moves relative to the second connecting portion 5236, the third connecting member 541 and the second connecting portion 5236 can approach each other and abut each other. The third connecting member 541 and the second connecting portion 5236 are locked and no longer rotate relative to each other due to the action of friction.

[0052] In this embodiment, the second connecting member 523 may further include a third gear tooth portion 5238, which is connected to the second connecting member 5236 and located on the side of the second connecting member 5236 facing the third connecting member 541. The third connecting member 541 has a fourth gear tooth portion 5412. When the second fastener 543 locks the third connecting member 541 and the second connecting member 5236, the third connecting member 541 approaches the third connecting member 541 along the direction of the second axis B, and the third gear tooth portion 5238 and the fourth gear tooth portion 5412 engage. The third gear tooth portion 5238 and the fourth gear tooth portion 5412 enhance the secureness of the locking between the third connecting member 541 and the second connecting member 5236.

[0053] In this embodiment, the second fastener 543 is a screw extending axially along the second axis B. One end of the second fastener 543 is disposed through the second connecting portion 5236 and is threadedly connected to the third connecting portion 541. A limiting step may be provided on the outer wall of the end of the second fastener 543 facing away from the third connecting portion 541. The limiting step is retained on the side of the second connecting portion 5236 facing away from the third connecting portion 541 to prevent the second fastener 543 from detaching from the side of the second connecting portion 5236 closer to the third connecting portion 541. Furthermore, in some embodiments, a gasket may be provided between the limiting step of the second fastener 543 and the second connecting portion 5236 to protect the second fastener 543.

[0054] The third connecting member 541 is connected to the connecting mechanism 30. When the second fastener 543 rotates relative to the second connecting portion 5236, the third connecting member 541 does not rotate with the second fastener 543 under the constraints of the connecting mechanism 30. Instead, the third connecting member 541 moves relative to the second fastener 543 along the second axis B under the action of the thread, moving closer to or farther from the second connecting portion 5236, thereby achieving engagement between the third gear portion 5238 and the fourth gear portion 5412, or spacing the third gear portion 5238 and the fourth gear portion 5412 to facilitate user rotation of the third connecting member 541 and angle adjustment. To facilitate user tightening of the second fastener 543, in this embodiment, a handle for user convenience may be provided at one end of the second fastener 543.

[0055] This specification does not limit the angular range within which the third connecting member 541 can drive the connecting mechanism 30 to rotate about the second axis B. For example, in this embodiment, the third connecting member 541 can rotate about the second axis B by an angle between 0° and 360°. In other embodiments, a limiting structure can be provided between the third connecting member 541 and the second connecting portion 5236 to limit the rotation angle of the third connecting member 541 about the second axis B. As an example, a limiting groove can be provided on the side of the second connecting portion 5236 facing the third connecting member 541, and a limiting protrusion can be provided on the side of the third connecting member 541 facing the second connecting portion 5236, with the limiting protrusion protruding relative to the fourth gear tooth portion 5412. When the second fastener 543 is loosened, the third gear tooth portion 5238 and the fourth gear tooth portion 5412 are spaced apart. The limiting protrusion of the third connecting member 541 is movably retained within the limiting groove of the second connecting portion 5236 and can slide within the limiting groove about the second axis B. The central angle of the limiting groove of the second connecting portion 5236 can be 60°, 90°, 180°, etc.

[0056] The second angle adjustment assembly 54 also includes a second elastic member 545 and a second limiting member 547. The second elastic member 545 is elastically disposed between the second connecting member 523 and the third connecting member 541. The second limiting member 547 is connected to the second fastening member 543 and is located on the side of the third connecting member 541 facing away from the second connecting member 523. When the second fastening member 543 is tightened, the second connecting member 523 and the third connecting member 541 compress the second elastic member 545. When the second fastening member 543 is loosened, the second elastic member 545 releases its elastic potential energy, lifting the third connecting member 541 to separate it from the second connecting member 523, allowing the third connecting member 541 to rotate relative to the second connecting member 523. The second elastic member 545 can lift the third connecting member 541 when adjustment is required, eliminating the need for the user to manually pull it out, thereby improving ease of use. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the second elastic member 545. For example, the second elastic member 545 may be a spring, a torsion spring, a coil spring, or the like. In this embodiment, the second elastic member 545 is a spring. The third connecting member 541 may be provided with a mounting space for accommodating the second elastic member 545 to limit the position of the second elastic member 545 and improve its stability during use.

[0057] One end of the second fastener 543 is threadedly connected to the third connector 541 and extends outward from the side of the third connector 541 facing away from the second connector 523. A second stopper 547 is connected to the second fastener 543 and is located on the side of the third connector 541 facing away from the second connector 523. It is used to prevent the third connector 541 and the second fastener 543 from completely separating. The second stopper 547 is a screw stop nut. The third connector 541 may be provided with an installation space for accommodating the third connector 541. When the second fastener 543 rotates relative to the second connector 523, the second stopper 547 moves within the installation space along the second axis B. When the second stopper 547 abuts against the third connector 541, the distance between the third connector 541 and the second connector 523 is at its greatest. The second stopper 547 enhances the stability of the second angle adjustment assembly 54.

[0058] In this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 30 is connected to the end of the third connecting member 541 away from the first connecting member 521 and is used to connect to the camera. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the connecting mechanism 30. For example, the connecting mechanism 30 can be a cylindrical structure with internal threads, and the connecting connector of the camera can be threadedly connected to the connecting mechanism 30. Alternatively, the connecting mechanism 30 can be a snap-fit ​​structure, which is used to secure the connecting connector of the camera. In this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 30 includes a fixed cylinder 32 and a locking member 34. The fixed cylinder 32 is movably connected to the third connecting member 541. The locking member 34 is connected to the fixed cylinder 32. The locking member 34 has an inner diameter, and the inner diameter of the locking member 34 can be changed when the fixed cylinder 32 moves relative to the third connecting member 541. The locking member 34 has a locking hole extending through both ends. The locking hole is used to accommodate the connecting end of the camera. The diameter of the locking hole can be understood as the inner diameter of the locking member 34. During installation, the connecting connector of the photographing device is inserted into the locking member 34 , and the fixing tube 32 moves relative to the fixing tube 32 to reduce the inner diameter of the locking member 34 , so that the locking member 34 holds the connecting connector of the photographing device tightly, completing the installation.

[0059] The locking member 34 is an elastic clamping ring made of an elastic material such as rubber or plastic. The locking member 34 has a first end 341 and a second end 343 that face each other. The inner diameter of the first end 341 is larger than that of the second end 343, and the wall thickness of the first end 341 is larger than that of the second end 343. The locking member 34 is inserted into the fixed tube 32, with the first end 341 connected to the tube opening of the fixed tube 32 (i.e., the end of the fixed tube 32 facing away from the first angle adjustment assembly 52), and the second end 343 located within the fixed tube 32. A clearance opening 345 may also be provided on the peripheral wall of the locking member 34 to allow for clearance during deformation and contraction.

[0060] A mounting tube 5414 is provided at the end of the third connecting member 541 facing away from the first angle adjustment assembly 52. ​​The mounting tube 5414 has external threads on its circumferential wall, and internal threads on the inner wall of the fixing tube 32. The fixing tube 32 is sleeved over the mounting tube 5414 and threadedly connected thereto. The circumferential wall of the mounting tube 5414 is clamped between the inner wall of the fixing tube 32 and the outer wall of the locking member 34. When the fixing tube 32 is tightened relative to the mounting tube 5414, the fixing tube 32 moves toward the mounting tube 5414. The mounting tube 5414 forces the locking member 34, which is pressed downward by the mounting tube 5414, to deform, reducing its inner diameter and achieving a tightening effect.

[0061] In the adapter device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting member 10 is connected to the mobile carrier 201, and the connecting mechanism 30 is connected to the mounting member 10 via the angle adjustment mechanism 50. The user can install the camera on the connecting mechanism 30 and adjust the angle of the camera via the angle adjustment mechanism 50 to meet the shooting requirements. Taking the mobile carrier 201 as a snowboard as an example, the camera can be installed at one end of the snowboard via the adapter device 100, for example, at the rear end of the snowboard. When the user is skiing, the camera connected to the rear end of the snowboard via the adapter device 100 can shoot the user from a third-person perspective. The angle adjustment mechanism 50 can meet the multi-angle framing range. Whether during or before and after shooting, the user does not need to hold the camera, making it easy to store, which not only saves effort but also has a better shooting effect.

The shooting device 303 is connected to the telescopic rod 301, so that the user can adjust the height of the shooting device 303 to meet the shooting requirements.

[0063] During installation, the user inserts the end of the telescopic rod 301 away from the camera 303 into the locking member 34 (eg Figure 6 Then, the fixing tube 32 is tightened to make the locking member 34 hold the telescopic rod 301 tightly to complete the installation.

[0064] In this embodiment, the camera device 303 has a first lens 3032 and a second lens 3034 facing in different directions. The camera device 303 has a shooting mode capable of shooting a target object from a third-person perspective.
