[0032] See also Figure 1-7 This article provides a foldable auxiliary shooting structure 10, including a first handheld component 1, a second handheld component 2, a connecting section 3 and multiple locking components 4, the two ends of the connecting section 3 are hinged to the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 respectively; the multiple locking components 4 can lock or unlock the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2, so that the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 are in use or folded relative to the connecting section 3.

[0033] In this article, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 can be movably connected relative to the connecting section 3, so that the first handheld component 1 can be movably switched between the use state and the folded state. When needed, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 can be locked in the use position by the locking component 4, which is convenient for users to use. When needed to be stored, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 can be unlocked by operating the locking component 4 to reduce the volume occupied by the auxiliary shooting structure 10, making it convenient for users to carry.

[0034] On the other hand, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 are configured to be folded toward the same side relative to the connecting section 3 when folded.

[0035] In one embodiment, please refer to 1-2. When the auxiliary shooting structure 10 is a ring-shaped handheld device, the connecting segments 3 include multiple sections so that the ring-shaped handheld device can be folded left and right. The two ends of one connecting segment 3 are respectively hinged to the first end of the first handheld component 1 and the first end of the second handheld component 2; the two ends of another connecting segment 3 are respectively hinged to the second end of the first handheld component 1 and the second end of the second handheld component 2, and each connecting segment 3 cooperates with two of the locking components 4. In this embodiment, four locking components 4 may be required. When the four locking components 4 are operated to respectively unlock the positions of the two ends of the first handheld component 1 relative to the connecting segment 3 and the two ends of the second handheld component 2 relative to the connecting segment 3, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 can be folded relative to the connecting segment 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 shown.

[0036] On the other hand, when the auxiliary shooting structure 10 is in a ring-shaped handheld configuration, the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2 are detachably connected or hinged at their ends away from the connecting section 3. With this arrangement, after unlocking the two locking components 4 corresponding to a connecting section 3, the ring-shaped handheld configuration can be folded by removing or rotating the other ends of the first handheld component 1 and the second handheld component 2.

[0037] See also Figure 2In this embodiment, one locking assembly 4 is mounted on the first handheld assembly 1, and the other locking assembly 4 is mounted on the second handheld assembly 2. The locking assembly 4 can be locked or unlocked with the connecting section 3, so that the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 are in use or folded relative to the connecting section 3. Specifically, the ends of the connecting section 3 have external threads, and the locking assembly 4 has internal threads. When the locking assembly 4 is loosened and moved away from the connecting section 3, the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 can be folded relative to the connecting section 3. When the user needs to store the ring for easy carrying, they can rotate the upper and lower locking assemblies 4 of the ring handheld so that they can move toward the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 respectively. The user can then use both hands to pull the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 so that the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 can move relative to the connecting section 3 and fold. When it is needed to use, the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 are separated so that the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 are aligned, and then the locking assembly 4 is tightened so that the locking assembly 4 is threadedly connected to the connecting section 3 to put it into use. It is to be noted that the locking assembly 4 is provided with a first limiting portion 41, and the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 are respectively provided with a second limiting portion 27. When the locking assembly 4 is rotated to lock, the second limiting portion 27 can limit the first limiting portion 41.

[0038] On the other hand, two locking assemblies 4 are mounted on both ends of the connecting section 3. The locking assemblies 4 can be locked or unlocked with the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2, respectively, so that the first handheld assembly 1 and the second handheld assembly 2 can be used or folded relative to the connecting section 3.

The dual-way focus handle also includes a first top threaded connector 111 and a first bottom threaded connector 112, and is internally provided with a control terminal and a built-in power supply. The dual-way focus handle is also provided with a handwheel. The handwheel can be wirelessly connected to two motors mounted on the camera lens. By turning the handwheel, the motor's rotational motion can be controlled, thereby controlling the rotation of the focal length area on the lens, enabling operations such as focus and zoom. The stabilizer control handle also includes a first top threaded connection bayonet 111 and a first bottom threaded connection bayonet 112, and a control terminal is provided therein, with a built-in power supply. The stabilizer control handle is also provided with a joystick and a handwheel. The stabilizer control handle is wirelessly connected to the stabilizer. By controlling the swing of the joystick, the two axial rotations of the stabilizer can be controlled, thereby controlling the direction of the camera and capturing the captured image. The handwheel can control the rotation of the motor connected to the camera lens, thereby controlling the rotation of the focal length area on the lens, performing operations such as follow focus and zoom. Furthermore, the first top threaded connection bayonet 111 can be aligned with the first threaded connection bayonet 16 of the first tube 12 and the third tube 22 for installation, and the first bottom threaded connection bayonet 112 can be aligned with the second threaded connection bayonet 26 of the second tube 13 and the fourth tube 23 for installation. By rotating the first threaded connection bayonet 16 of the upper ring tube and the second threaded connection bayonet 26 of the lower ring tube, the connection between the annular tube body and the left and right handles is completed, forming a complete closed loop.
