Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photographic equipment, and in particular to a support foot and photographic bracket with a quick-switching mode. Background Technology

[0002] Mobile phones and cameras (or tablets, laptops, etc.) are commonly used devices in people's daily lives and work. In order to meet the shooting needs of some users, camera stands are used to support the shooting equipment during shooting, so as to free up the user's hands. Camera stands have a wide range of applications, especially when used outdoors or on soft ground, where spikes and / or pads are needed to further improve stability.

[0003] Since foot spikes and foot pads are usually not used simultaneously, and in existing camera stands, switching between foot spikes and foot pads is achieved by removing the foot pads, the foot pads of such camera stands need to be specially stored after removal. At the same time, the connection and locking structure between the foot pads and the stand body is complex. The foot pads are used in a relatively complex environment, especially when used on muddy ground, where they will get very dirty. This dirt not only gets into the gap between the foot pads and the stand body, but also further increases the difficulty of storage after the dirty foot pads are removed. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a support foot and camera stand that can quickly switch states to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3 A support foot that can quickly switch states includes a mounting base 10, a foot pad 20, and a foot spike assembly 30;

[0027] Mounting base 10 is used to connect to the bracket body;

[0028] The foot pad 20 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 10 to switch between a supported state and an idle state;

[0029] Foot spike assembly 30 is mounted on mounting base 10;

[0030] Mounting base 10 can be supported on a flat surface by means of foot pad 20 when foot pad 20 is in the supported state, or mounting base 10 can be supported on a flat surface by means of foot spike assembly 30 when foot pad 20 is in the idle state.

[0031] In this invention, the support feet are connected to the bracket body, the structure of which will not be described in detail here; furthermore, the mounting base 10 is connected to the bracket body. When the surrounding environment is suitable for support using foot nails, such as a hard surface like a cement floor, the foot pad 20 can be switched to an idle state by rotating it. Figure 2 In the current state, the spike assembly 30 is exposed and in contact with the ground for support; when the surrounding environment is suitable for support using the foot pad 20, such as a soft surface like grass, the foot pad 20 is switched to the support state by rotating it. Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this state, the lower end of the foot pad 20 is lower than the lower end of the foot spike assembly 30, so that the camera bracket is supported by contacting the ground through the foot pad 20; however, no matter what kind of ground it is used on, the foot pad 20 is always connected to the mounting base 10; the advantages of this utility model are: the above structure allows the foot pad or foot spike to be switched without disassembling the foot pad, meeting the support needs of different environments, simplifying the structure of the support foot, so that the foot pad does not need extra storage, and also avoiding the structure being too complicated and difficult to clean, which has very good practicality.

[0032] In some embodiments, the foot pad 20 is provided with a notch 40 for avoiding the mounting base 10 and the foot spike assembly 30; this arrangement can prevent the mounting base 10 and the foot spike assembly 30 from obstructing the rotation of the foot pad 20, and make full use of the surrounding space of the mounting base 10 and the foot spike assembly 30, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the support foot.

[0033] In some embodiments, the foot pad 20 includes a first connecting seat 21, a second connecting seat 22, and a support seat 23. The upper end of the first connecting seat 21 is rotatably connected to one side of the mounting base 10, the upper end of the second connecting seat 22 is rotatably connected to the other side of the mounting base 10, and the support seat 23 is connected to the lower end of the first connecting seat 21 and the lower end of the second connecting seat 22. This arrangement allows the foot pad 20 and the mounting base 10 to be rotatably connected by only two very simple pivots, which not only reduces the complexity of the structure but also makes it very easy to clean.

[0034] In some embodiments, the lower end of the support base 23 is provided with an anti-slip pad 50; this arrangement can further improve the anti-slip properties of the support foot (camera bracket) and prevent slippage or tipping.

[0035] In some embodiments, a limiting component 60 is provided between the foot pad 20 and the mounting base 10 to keep the foot pad 20 in an idle state; as a preferred embodiment of the limiting component 60, the limiting component 60 includes a connecting piece 61 and a spring piece 62 connected to the connecting piece 61. The connecting piece 61 is mounted on the mounting base 10, and the spring piece 62 can abut against the foot pad 20 when the foot pad 20 is in an idle state.

[0036] In some embodiments, the foot spike assembly 30 includes a first foot spike 31 disposed on the front side of the mounting base 10 and a second foot spike 32 disposed on the rear side of the mounting base 10.

[0037] A photography stand, including the aforementioned support legs.

[0038] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
