Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera bracket technology, specifically an integrated easel with a multi-joint arm for adjustable shooting. Background Technology
[0002] An easel is an indispensable tool for artists and painting enthusiasts during the creative process. It is typically made of wood or metal, with a sturdy structure and diverse designs to suit different painting styles and needs. An easel supports the canvas or drawing board, keeping it flat and at a suitable tilt angle, allowing the painter freedom of movement. Furthermore, many modern easels are height-adjustable and easy to fold and carry, greatly facilitating artists' creative work and outdoor sketching trips.
[0003] To meticulously record the entire painting process, a fixed camera with an articulated arm is typically mounted on the easel. This articulated arm is usually bolted to the easel in place. However, in practice, we've encountered a problem: some users lack sufficient strength, making it difficult to tighten the bolts adequately. This poses a risk of the articulated arm falling off, potentially causing the attached camera to slip and fall, resulting in equipment damage. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated easel with a multi-joint arm for adjustable shooting, in order to solve the problem of inconvenient bolt tightening in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an integrated easel with a multi-joint arm for adjustable shooting, comprising an easel body, a drawing board fixedly mounted on the easel body, a joint arm connected to the easel body, a camera at one end of the joint arm, and a clamping mechanism at the other end of the joint arm. The clamping mechanism includes a clamping frame fixedly mounted on the joint arm, a locking screw connected to the clamping frame, a clamping plate rotatably mounted at one end of the locking screw, a connecting protrusion fixedly mounted at the other end of the locking screw, an annular seat connected to the connecting protrusion, a toothed ring fixedly mounted on the annular seat, and a driving mechanism connected to the annular seat.
[0006] Preferably, a nut seat is fixedly installed on one side of the clamping frame, and the locking screw is installed on the clamping frame through the nut seat.
[0007] Preferably, the clamping plate has a rotating connecting groove, and the locking screw is rotatably connected to the clamping plate through the rotating connecting groove.
[0008] Preferably, the clamping plate is installed in the clamping frame body by a locking screw, and the annular seat is connected to the locking screw by a connecting protrusion.
[0009] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a connecting sleeve rotatably mounted on an annular seat, a long handle fixedly mounted on the connecting sleeve, a driving link movably mounted inside the long handle, a spring seat fixedly mounted on the driving link, a return spring sleeved on the driving link, a button fixedly mounted at one end of the driving link, a movable base fixedly mounted at the other end of the driving link, and a locking block fixedly mounted on the movable base.
[0010] Preferably, the long handle has a movable groove, the spring seat is movably installed in the long handle through the movable groove, and the long handle has a sliding groove, the drive linkage is movably installed in the long handle through the sliding groove.
[0011] Preferably, one end of the reset spring is connected to the spring seat, and the other end of the reset spring is connected to the upper end of the movable groove. The locking block is movably installed below the toothed ring via the movable base.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. In this application, once the clamping frame is engaged in the corresponding position on the easel body, the clamping frame can be fixed by rotating the locking screw. As the locking screw rotates, the clamping plate moves forward accordingly, ensuring that the clamping frame is securely locked onto the easel body. This also allows the articulated arm to be effectively locked onto the easel body, facilitating use.
[0014] 2. In this application, pressing the button allows the locking block to engage with the toothed ring, achieving a fixed connection between the connecting sleeve and the annular seat. Once the connecting sleeve and the annular seat are fixed, the connecting sleeve can be rotated by turning the long handle. Consequently, the annular seat will also rotate, thereby driving the locking screw to rotate, ultimately securing the clamping plate. Compared to directly rotating the locking screw, using the long handle for rotation is more labor-saving, ensuring a secure lock between the articulated arm and the easel body even with limited operator strength.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for an integrated easel with multi-joint arm adjustable for shooting, including an easel body 1, a drawing board 4 fixedly installed on the easel body 1, an articulated arm 2 connected to the easel body 1, a camera 3 at one end of the articulated arm 2, a clamping mechanism 5 at the other end of the articulated arm 2, and a drive mechanism 6 connected to a ring seat 505. Through the perfect cooperation of the carefully designed clamping mechanism 5 and the drive mechanism 6, the user only needs to apply relatively small force to lock the articulated arm 2 firmly and stably on the easel body 1.
[0022] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping mechanism 5 includes a clamping frame 501 fixedly mounted on the articulated arm 2. A locking screw 503 is connected to the clamping frame 501. A clamping plate 502 is rotatably mounted on one end of the locking screw 503. A connecting protrusion 506 is fixedly mounted on the other end of the locking screw 503. An annular seat 505 is connected to the connecting protrusion 506. A toothed ring 507 is fixedly mounted on the annular seat 505. A nut seat 504 is fixedly mounted on one side of the clamping frame 501. The locking screw 503 is mounted on the clamping frame 501 through the nut seat 504. A rotating connecting groove is provided on the clamping plate 502. The locking screw 503 is rotatably connected to the clamping plate 502 through the rotating connecting groove.
[0023] Specifically, after the clamping frame 501 is engaged with the easel body 1, the clamping frame 501 can be secured by rotating the locking screw 503. As the locking screw 503 rotates, the clamping plate 502 moves forward accordingly, ensuring that the clamping frame 501 is firmly locked onto the easel body 1. In this way, the articulated arm 2 can also be effectively locked onto the easel body 1.
[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the drive mechanism 6 includes a connecting sleeve 601 rotatably mounted on an annular seat 505. A long handle 607 is fixedly mounted on the connecting sleeve 601. A drive connecting rod 606 is movably mounted inside the long handle 607. A spring seat 605 is fixedly mounted on the drive connecting rod 606. A return spring 604 is sleeved on the drive connecting rod 606. A button 608 is fixedly mounted on one end of the drive connecting rod 606. A movable base 603 is fixedly mounted on the other end of the drive connecting rod 606. A locking block 602 is fixedly mounted on the movable base 603. A movable groove is opened inside the long handle 607, and the spring seat 605 is movably mounted inside the long handle 607 through the movable groove.
[0025] Specifically, pressing button 608 moves the drive linkage 606 forward. As the drive linkage 606 moves forward, it further pushes the movable base 603 forward. The forward movement of the movable base 603 causes the locking block 602 to engage with the toothed ring 507, thus securing the connecting sleeve 601 and the annular seat 505 together. Once the connecting sleeve 601 and the annular seat 505 are secured, the operation can be performed by rotating the long handle 607. Rotating the long handle 607 causes the connecting sleeve 601 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting sleeve 601, in turn, causes the annular seat 505 to rotate. The rotation of the annular seat 505 then causes the locking screw 503 to rotate, thereby controlling the clamping of the clamping plate 502. Compared to directly rotating the locking screw 503, using the long handle 607 for rotation is less strenuous, allowing even users with less strength to easily and firmly lock the articulated arm 2 onto the easel body 1.
[0026] Working principle: During use, the clamping frame 501 can be secured to the easel body 1. After the clamping frame 501 is secured, the locking screw 503 can be rotated. Rotating the locking screw 503 will cause the clamping plate 502 to move forward, thereby locking the clamping frame 501 onto the easel body 1, and subsequently locking the articulated arm 2 onto the easel body 1 for use. Furthermore, the long handle 607 is rotatably connected to the annular seat 505 via the connecting sleeve 601. The user can press the button 608 to move the drive linkage 606 forward. The forward movement of the drive linkage 606 will then drive the movable base 603 forward. After moving forward, the locking block 602 will engage with the toothed ring 507, thereby fixing the connecting sleeve 601 and the ring seat 505 together. After the connecting sleeve 601 and the ring seat 505 are fixed together, the long handle 607 can be rotated. Rotating the long handle 607 will cause the connecting sleeve 601 to rotate, which in turn will cause the ring seat 505 to rotate. The ring seat 505 will then cause the locking screw 503 to rotate, thereby controlling the clamping plate 502 to clamp. Compared to directly rotating the locking screw 503, using the long handle 607 is more labor-saving, and even with less force, the joint arm 2 can be firmly locked onto the easel body 1.
[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
