In this way, the telescopic arm 120 and the mobile phone clamping part 130 can be folded into the shell 110 for easy storage and carrying. When needed, the mobile phone clamping part 130 and the telescopic arm 120 are unfolded from the shell 110 (refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 ), then unfold the mobile phone clamping portion 130 (refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the unfolded schematic diagram, the mobile phone clamping portion 130 is moved to the horizontal direction and the first clamping portion 131 and the second clamping portion 132 are opened. The mobile phone clamping portion 130 can clamp a mobile phone or other photographic equipment. It has a compact structure and is easy to carry.
[0030] Specifically, the back of the housing 110 is provided with a first receiving groove 1101. When the telescopic arm 120 and at least part or all of the mobile phone clamping portion 130 are accommodated in the first receiving groove 1101, that is, the telescopic arm 120 and the mobile phone clamping portion 130 can be accommodated in the first receiving groove 1101, resulting in a compact structure. The mobile phone clamping portion 130 can be partially or completely accommodated in the first receiving groove 1101. When the mobile phone clamping portion 130 is folded, it has a generally flat structure, which can be fully accommodated in the first receiving groove 1101 or slightly protrude from the first receiving groove 1101. Of course, in specific applications, when the mobile phone clamping portion 130 is folded, its outer side can be roughly flush with the back of the housing 110.
[0031] Specifically, a first receiving slot 1101 extends through the top and back surfaces of the housing 110.

In specific applications, a friction plate or other damping structure can be used to ensure that the telescopic arm 120 maintains a set angle. The telescopic arm 120 rotates 180 degrees from the back of the housing 110 about the axis of the first rotating shaft 180, placing the telescopic arm 120 in an extended state. When the telescopic arm 120 is retracted, the back of the telescopic arm 120 abuts the inner wall of the first receiving slot 1101, the mobile phone clamping portion 130 abuts the front of the telescopic arm 120, and the front end of the telescopic arm 120 points toward the bottom of the housing 110. The telescopic arm 120 adopts a reversible structure and can rotate 180 degrees about the first rotating shaft 180 to achieve upward extension and downward retraction.
[0032] Specifically, the mobile phone clamping portion 130 also includes a rotating plate 133 rotatably connected to the telescopic arm 120, and the first clamping portion 131 and the second clamping portion 132 are respectively rotatably connected to the two ends of the rotating plate 133 and can be abutted against the rotating plate 133; the rotating plate 133 can be rotated to be perpendicular to the telescopic arm 120 or parallel to the telescopic arm 120. An elastic member (such as a spring, etc.) is provided between at least one of the first clamping portion 131 and the second clamping portion 132 and the rotating plate 133, so that the first clamping portion 131 and the second clamping portion 132 can elastically approach each other and clamp the two sides of the mobile phone, and the back of the mobile phone can be abutted against the front of the rotating plate 133; the rotating plate 133 can be rotated to be perpendicular to the telescopic arm 120 or parallel to the telescopic arm 120. When the rotating plate 133 is rotated to be perpendicular to the telescopic arm 120, the rotating plate 133 and the telescopic arm 120 are arranged in a "T" shape (such as Figures 7 to 9The back of the rotating plate 133 can be connected to the upper end of the telescopic arm 120 via a universal shaft structure. The universal shaft structure can include two shafts arranged perpendicular to each other. Of course, the back of the rotating plate 133 can also be connected to the upper end of the telescopic arm 120 via a universal ball joint structure, so that the mobile phone clamping portion 130 can be rotated and the pitch angle can be adjusted to meet different usage requirements.
[0033] Specifically, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the housing 110 may be in the shape of a hollow column, and its cross section may be in a suitable shape such as a circle or a polygon.
[0034] Specifically, the device body 100 is provided with a rotation control component for rotating the device body 100 , which can be remote-controlled or adaptively follow-up (automatically tracking the target human body).
[0035] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the rotation control component includes a camera 310; in this embodiment, by identifying the user through the camera 310, the device body 100 can drive the mobile phone to automatically face the human body, which provides a good user experience.
[0036] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the bottom of the housing 110 has a mounting base 200, which is used to connect to the mounting component. The rotation control component includes a rotation drive device, which is disposed within the housing 110 and is used to drive the device body 100 to rotate circumferentially. The mounting component can be a base, connecting rod, handle, or tripod. The mounting base 200 can be connected to the mounting component by bolts, plugs, snaps, etc.
[0037] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the rotary drive device includes a motor 410, a driving gear 440 and a driven gear 450.

Specifically, refer to Figure 9As shown, the driving gear 440 is disposed in the inner gear ring 452 and meshes with the inner gear ring 452 with a gap. There is a certain gap between the driving gear 440 and the inner gear ring 452. Even if the output shaft of the motor 440 has a vertical deviation, the driving gear 440 and the inner gear ring 452 can adaptively mesh with each other through the gap between the driving gear 440 and the inner gear ring 452, and can also ensure the normal transmission of the driving gear 440 and the driven gear 450, so as to ensure the normal use of the electric rotation function, the rotation process is smooth, the reliability of the tracking device is high, and the user experience is good. Specifically, as Figures 6 to 9 As shown, a rigid packaging plate 150 (such as a metal plate) is provided at the bottom of the housing 110. The rigid packaging plate 150 has a mounting through-hole 151. The mounting base 200 extends through the mounting through-hole 151 and can be docked with the base (or connecting rod, handle, tripod, etc.). On the one hand, the rigid packaging plate 150 can improve the aesthetics of the product. On the other hand, it can prevent the problem of the telescopic rod pulling the mounting base 200, causing the driven gear 450 to be displaced, thereby damaging the reduction gear box inside the motor 410. The camera 310 and the rotation drive device are connected to the control module (circuit board). Based on the image captured by the camera 310 to identify the user's moving position / direction, the rotation drive device can drive the mobile phone to rotate to a position / direction facing the user.
[0038] Specifically, the driving gear 440 is driven by the motor 410, and the driving gear 440 is engaged with the driven gear 450. The driven gear 450 is fixed to the mounting component through the mounting base 200, so that the device body 100 can rotate relative to the mounting base 200 and the mounting component, and then the device body 100 can drive the mobile phone to rotate.
[0039] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 9 As shown, a rotary bearing 430 is provided on one side of the driven gear 450, and a rigid packaging plate 150 faces the other side of the driven gear 450. The rigid packaging plate 150 is fixed to the housing 110 via a second locking member (not shown). The rigid packaging plate 150 can be a metal plate, such as an aluminum alloy plate or a stainless steel plate.
[0040] Specifically, if Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the housing 110 is provided with a mounting cavity 1103, and at least one of a battery module 610 and a control circuit board 620 is disposed in the mounting cavity 1103.
