[0043] The embodiment of the present application provides a photography shoulder bracket, referring to Figure 1 The photography shoulder bracket comprises:
[0044] The shoulder bracket main body 100 is used for connecting the mounting seat 10, and the mounting seat 10 is used for mounting the photography equipment;
[0045] The handheld assembly 200 is arranged on one side of the shoulder bracket main body 100, and the handheld assembly 200 is connected with the shoulder bracket main body 100 through the sliding piece 300;
[0046] The sliding piece 300 is slidably connected with the shoulder bracket main body 100, and the first locking structure 410 is arranged between the sliding piece 300 and the shoulder bracket main body 100, and the first locking structure 410 is used for adjusting the distance between the handheld assembly 200 and the shoulder bracket main body 100.
[0047] The photography shoulder bracket related to the embodiment is mainly used for assisting the user to hold and operate the photography equipment more stably, and is usually erected on the shoulder of the user, so as to provide an additional support point for the photography equipment. The photography shoulder bracket can transfer part of the weight of the photography equipment from the hand to the shoulder, so as to reduce the burden of the arm, and is more practical especially when the photography equipment is used for a long time or the photography equipment is relatively heavy (such as being equipped with a long-focus lens, a movie machine and the like). When a static photo is shot, such as shooting scenes of landscape, building and wild animals, the photography shoulder bracket can effectively reduce the shaking of the handheld camera. For video shooting, especially for sports lens shooting (such as following a player, shooting activities in a wedding scene and the like), the photography shoulder bracket can make the photographer move more flexibly, while keeping the camera relatively stable, so that the video picture shot will not make the audience dizzy because of violent shaking, and the video quality can be improved.
[0048] In the photographic shoulder support of the embodiment, the shoulder support body 100 is the basic support structure of the entire photographic shoulder support, which is generally made of high-strength metal (such as aluminum alloy) or solid plastic, and is designed to match the human shoulder curve to ensure comfortable placement on the shoulder. In addition, the shoulder support body 100 has a certain length and curvature, which can extend to a suitable position and facilitate the connection of the mounting seat 10. The mounting seat 10 is a photographic equipment mounting platform for mounting photographic equipment (such as a camera), and the mounting seat 10 usually has standard screw holes that can be adapted to the screw ports on the bottom of various photographic equipment. Alternatively, the mounting seat 10 is provided with a quick release device to facilitate the user to quickly disassemble and assemble the photographic equipment.
[0049] The handheld assembly 200 is located on one side of the shoulder support body 100. When the photographic shoulder support is erected on the user's shoulder, the user's shoulder supports the shoulder support body 100, and the handheld assembly 200 is correspondingly located in front of the user's body for the user to hold and control the photographic shoulder support and the photographic equipment thereon. The handheld assembly 200 is connected to the shoulder support body 100 through the sliding member 300, and is slidably arranged on the shoulder support body 100, so as to be adjusted in distance relative to the shoulder support body 100 and realize the position adjustment of the handheld assembly 200 on the shoulder support body 100. Specifically, the handheld assembly 200 is connected to the sliding member 300, and the sliding member 300 is slidably connected to the shoulder support body 100.
[0050] The sliding member 300 is slidably connected to the shoulder support body 100, and the setting form can include various forms, such as:
[0051] First, a sliding groove is provided on the shoulder support body 100, and the sliding member 300 is arranged in the sliding groove and can slide along the sliding groove, so as to be slidably connected to the shoulder support body 100; second, a sliding rail is provided on the shoulder support body 100, and the sliding member 300 is sleeved on the sliding rail and slidably connected to the sliding rail, so as to be slidably connected to the shoulder support body 100. Of course, the above is only an example and is not limited, and other forms can also be used.
[0052] When the sliding member 300 is adjusted to slide on the shoulder support body 100, the relative position of the sliding member 300 and the shoulder support body 100 changes, and the distance between the handheld assembly 200 and the shoulder support body 100 also changes accordingly. The first locking structure 410 can lock the sliding member 300, and then position the handheld assembly 200 to maintain the handheld assembly 200 at the adjusted position.
[0053] The first locking structure 410 can adopt various forms to realize the relative locking between the sliding member 300 and the shoulder support body 100. Taking the case that the first locking structure 410 is located on the shoulder support body 100 as an example, the first locking structure 410 can be:
[0054] The first locking structure 410 locks the sliding piece 300 by abutting against the surface of the sliding piece 300, or the surface of the sliding piece 300 is configured with a groove, the first locking structure 410 locks the sliding piece 300 by being clamped into the groove of the sliding piece 300, or the first locking structure 410 and the sliding piece 300 are provided with magnetic attraction structures, the first locking structure 410 locks the sliding piece 300 by magnetic attraction with the sliding piece 300. The above-mentioned locking forms are exemplary and non-limiting, including but not limited to.
[0055] The working principle of the front and rear position (or relative distance from the shoulder support body 100) adjustment of the handheld assembly 200 is as follows:
[0056] The sliding piece 300 is unlocked on the shoulder support body 100 by the first locking structure 410, and then the sliding piece 300 is slid on the shoulder support body 100 to adjust the distance between the handheld assembly 200 and the shoulder support body 100, and then the sliding piece 300 is locked on the shoulder support body 100 by the first locking structure 410 after being adjusted to the required distance. Therefore, the user can move the handheld assembly 200 forward or backward to adjust to a more appropriate handheld distance when using the photographic shoulder support, thereby facilitating handheld, that is, the photographic shoulder support can well adapt to users of different body shapes, which helps to improve the user's comfort.
[0057] In the embodiment, the handheld assembly 200 works with the shoulder support body 100, the mounting seat 10 and other components to form a complete photographic shoulder support system. From other aspects, through the sliding connection of the sliding piece 300 and the shoulder support body 100 and the cooperation of the first locking structure 410, the handheld assembly 200 can flexibly adjust its position relative to the shoulder support body 100 under different shooting scenes and personal preferences of the photographer, so as to achieve better holding comfort and operation convenience. For example, when shooting low-angle pictures, the photographer can slide the handheld assembly 200 backward and lock it at a suitable position, so that the camera is closer to the front of the body, which is convenient for operation; when shooting high-angle pictures, the handheld assembly 200 can be slid forward, and the angle of the camera can be adjusted at the same time, so that stable high-angle shooting is realized.
[0058] As an optional implementation scheme, the photographic shoulder support further includes a back support arranged on the other side of the shoulder support body 100 and opposite to the position of the handheld assembly 200. The back support is closely attached to the back of the user, effectively reduces the pressure borne by the shoulders and arms by means of the large-area force borne by the back of the human body, and helps to improve the stability during shooting.
[0059] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2The first locking structure 410 includes a plurality of first locking grooves 411 on one of the slider 300 and the shoulder support body 100, the plurality of first locking grooves 411 being arranged at intervals along the sliding direction of the slider 300, and the first locking structure 410 further includes a first locking module 412 on the other of the slider 300 and the shoulder support body 100.
[0060] The first locking module 412 is used to form a clamping cooperation with the first locking groove 411 to lock the slider 300 or cancel the clamping cooperation with the first locking groove 411 to unlock the slider 300.
[0061] The slider 300 is locked or unlocked relative to the shoulder support body 100 through the structural cooperation of the first locking module 412 of the first locking structure 410 and the first locking groove 411. The slider 300 can be provided with a plurality of first locking grooves 411, and the shoulder support body 100 can be provided with a first locking module 412; or the shoulder support body 100 can be provided with a plurality of first locking grooves 411, and the slider 300 can be provided with a first locking module 412, which is set according to actual needs. In the sliding direction of the slider 300, the plurality of first locking grooves 411 are arranged and spaced one by one. The first locking module 412 is arranged opposite to the plurality of first locking grooves 411, and the first locking module 412 is used to form a clamping cooperation with at least one first locking groove 411 by clamping into the first locking groove 411 to lock the slider 300, or to cancel the clamping cooperation with the first locking groove 411 by clamping out of the first locking groove 411 to unlock the slider 300.
[0062] The plurality of first locking grooves 411 substantially correspond to a plurality of different position gears of the handheld assembly 200, and in the adjustment process of operating the slider 300 to slide, different first locking grooves 411 are switched to be aligned with the first locking module 412 as the position of the handheld assembly 200 changes, and when the handheld assembly 200 is adjusted to the required position, the first locking module 412 clamps into the corresponding first locking groove 411 to lock the slider 300 to position the position of the handheld assembly 200, which is simple in structure and convenient to operate. In application, the number and position of the first locking grooves 411 can be set to control the adjustable position range of the forward movement / backward movement of the handheld assembly 200.
[0063] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first locking module 412 is arranged on the shoulder support body 100, and the first locking module 412 includes:
[0064] a first clamping piece 4121 adapted to the first locking groove 411;
[0065] The first holding member 4121 is movably arranged on the shoulder supporting body 100, and is used to hold the first locking member 412 tightly or release the first locking member 412;
[0066] The first pressing member 4123 is movably arranged on the shoulder supporting body 100 and connected with the first holding member 4122, and is used to drive the first holding member 4122 to move;
[0067] The first reset member 4124 acts on the first pressing member 4123, and is used to provide a force for resetting the first pressing member 4123.
[0068] In the embodiment, the first locking module 412 is arranged on the shoulder supporting body 100, and correspondingly, a plurality of first locking grooves 411 are arranged on the sliding member 300. The first locking module 412 includes the first holding member 4121, the first holding member 4122, the first pressing member 4123 and the first reset member 4124, wherein the shape and size of the first holding member 4121 are accurately matched with the first locking groove 411, and the first holding member 4121 can be a columnar structure or a block structure with a certain elasticity, which can be tightly embedded in the first locking groove 411 under the action of the first holding member 4122, so as to achieve reliable clamping effect and prevent the movement of the sliding member 300.
[0069] The first holding member 4122 can be a sliding block structure or a push rod structure, which is in contact with the first holding member 4121 and changes the state of the first holding member 4121 by moving itself. When the first holding member 4122 moves towards the direction of making the first holding member 4121 clamped, it can exert sufficient pressure on the first holding member 4121 to force the clamping part of the first holding member 4121 to be firmly clamped into the first locking groove 411; and when the first holding member 4122 moves reversely, the pressure on the first holding member 4121 can be released to make the first holding member 4121 loose from the first locking groove 411. The moving track of the first holding member 4122 on the shoulder supporting body 100 can be a straight guide rail or a dovetail groove structure, so as to ensure the stability and directionality of the movement.
[0070] The first pressing member 4123 is movably arranged on the shoulder supporting body 100 and connected with the first holding member 4122, and is used to drive the first holding member 4122 to move according to the predetermined direction, thereby making the first holding member 4122 loose the first holding member 4121.
[0071] The first reset member 4124 acts on the first pressing member 4123, and can be an elastic element such as a spring or a spring piece. For example, the first reset member 4124 is a spring, one end of which is connected to a fixed structure of the shoulder support body 100, and the other end of which is connected to the first pressing member 4123 or a component linked with the first pressing member 4123. When the first pressing member 4123 is pressed down, the first reset member 4124 is compressed to store elastic potential energy; when the first pressing member 4123 is released, the first reset member 4124 releases the elastic potential energy to push the first pressing member 4123 back to the initial position, and in turn drives the first abutting member 4122 back to the initial position, so that the first clamping member 4121 returns to the initial clamping state.
[0072] That is, the user can press the first pressing member 4123 to unlock the first locking module 412 to adjust the distance between the handheld assembly 200 and the shoulder support body 100. When the user releases the first pressing member 4123, the first locking module 412 automatically locks the sliding member 300 under the action of the first reset member 4124.
[0073] In this embodiment, the adaptive design of the first clamping member 4121 and the first locking slot 411 and the abutting action of the first abutting member 4122 on the first clamping member 4121 can ensure that the sliding member 300 does not easily displace in the locked state, thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the handheld assembly 200. The setting of the first pressing member 4123 enables the user to achieve the locking and unlocking functions through simple manual operation without the need for complex tools or cumbersome operation steps. Moreover, the first reset member 4124 can automatically reset the operating component, which is convenient and efficient and improves work efficiency.
[0074] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the first pressing member 4123, the first abutting member 4122, and the first clamping member 4121 are sequentially arranged along the height direction of the shoulder support body 100, and the moving direction of the first pressing member 4123 is different from the moving direction of the first abutting member 4122;
[0075] The first pressing member 4123 is provided with a first guide inclined groove C1, and the first abutting member 4122 is provided with a first guide column Z1, which is inserted into the first guide inclined groove C1. When the first pressing member 4123 moves, the first guide column Z1 is driven to move along the first guide inclined groove C1 to drive the first abutting member 4122 to move.
[0076] In this embodiment, the first pressing member 4123, the first abutting member 4122 and the first clamping member 4121 are sequentially arranged along the height direction of the shoulder pad body 100. This layout makes full use of the space in the height direction of the shoulder pad body 100, so that the structure of the locking module is relatively compact. Among them, the first pressing member 4123 is located at the uppermost position, which is convenient for the photographer to operate. The first clamping member 4121 is located at the lowermost position and directly interacts with the first locking slot 411 to realize the locking function. The first abutting member 4122 is located in the middle and plays a role in transmitting power and converting the direction of movement.
[0077] In addition, the moving direction of the first pressing member 4123 is different from that of the first abutting member 4122. For example, the first pressing member 4123 can be designed to move along a horizontal first direction X1, while the first abutting member 4122 moves along a horizontal second direction X2, which is perpendicular to the first direction X1. This design can better adapt to the structural layout inside the shoulder pad body 100, avoid mutual interference of the movement trajectories of various components, and at the same time, it is also conducive to effectively converting the pressing force into the locking force of the first clamping member 4121.
[0078] Among them, the first pressing member 4123 and the first abutting member 4122 are connected through the structure of the first guide inclined groove C1 and the first guide column Z1 to realize linkage. When the first pressing member 4123 moves, the first guide column Z1 is driven to move along the first guide inclined groove C1 under the oblique constraint of the first guide inclined groove C1. Due to the inclined characteristics of the first guide inclined groove C1, the movement of the first guide column Z1 will drive the first abutting member 4122 to produce displacement different from the direction of the first pressing member 4123, so as to finally make the first clamping member 4121 realize the action of clamping or releasing the first locking slot 411. The inclination angle of the first guide inclined groove C1 can be set according to actual needs, which will not be described here.
[0079] The first locking module 412 realizes the reasonable arrangement and efficient linkage of various components in a limited space through the component layout along the height direction of the shoulder pad body 100 and the unique linkage structure of the first guide inclined groove C1 and the first guide column Z1, reduces the volume of the whole locking module, and is conducive to the compact design of the overall structure of the shoulder pad body 100. Moreover, through the cooperation of the first guide inclined groove C1 and the first guide column Z1, the movement of the first pressing member 4123 in the first direction X1 can be accurately converted into the movement of the first abutting member 4122 in the second direction X2, so as to accurately control the clamping and releasing action of the first clamping member 4121, and improve the operation precision and reliability of the first locking module 412.
[0080] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 3The first abutting piece 4122 has an abutting surface M on the side facing the first clamping piece 4121, and the abutting surface M is concave with a clearance groove C2. The first abutting piece 4122 can be switched between abutting the first clamping piece 4121 via the abutting surface M and avoiding the first clamping piece 4121 via the clearance groove C2.
[0081] In this embodiment, the abutting surface M of the first abutting piece 4122 is the key part that directly contacts the first clamping piece 4121 and transmits force. The abutting surface M is concave with a clearance groove C2 that is shaped and sized to match the local structure of the first clamping piece 4121. For example, the clearance groove C2 can be rectangular, arc-shaped, or other geometric shapes. When the first abutting piece 4122 is in the locked position, the abutting surface M is in close contact with the first clamping piece 4121, and the first clamping piece 4121 is stably clamped in the first locking groove 411 by abutting the first clamping piece 4121. When unlocking is needed, the first abutting piece 4122 is switched in position so that the clearance groove C2 is aligned with the first clamping piece 4121. At this time, the first clamping piece 4121 can move freely in the clearance groove C2 or be released from close contact with the first abutting piece 4122 due to other factors, thereby realizing the transition from the locked state to the unlocked state.
[0082] The design of the abutting surface M and the clearance groove C2 on the first abutting piece 4122 allows it to provide stable abutting force for the first clamping piece 4121 when locked, ensuring the reliability of the lock, and quickly releases the constraint on the first clamping piece 4121 through the ingenious arrangement of the clearance groove C2 when unlocking, realizing convenient unlocking operation, greatly improving the use efficiency and flexibility of the first locking module 412 of the photographic shoulder support.

[0085] In this embodiment, the shape and size of the receiving cavity Q provided on the shoulder support body 100 are matched with the sliding piece 300 to ensure that the sliding piece 300 can slide smoothly therein. The receiving cavity Q can be a cavity with a rectangular or circular cross section, the length of which is determined according to the design requirements of the shoulder support body 100 and the sliding shape of the sliding piece 300, and the width or diameter is slightly larger than the corresponding size of the sliding piece 300. The sliding piece 300 can have a plate body or a rod body structure with a certain length, and the surface thereof can be provided with a guide structure, such as a protruding guide rail or a groove, which cooperates with the corresponding structure on the inner wall of the receiving cavity Q to ensure the directionality and smoothness of the sliding.
[0086] The first clamping member 4121 is protruded from the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity Q, and the protruding part has a specific shape and size for cooperating with the first locking groove 411 on the sliding member 300 to achieve the locking function. The position of the first clamping member 4121 on the cavity wall is determined according to the locking position requirement of the sliding member 300, which is not limited here. The first pressing member 4123 is at least partially protruded from the outer surface of the shoulder support body 100, so that the photographer can easily touch and press it. The position of the first pressing member 4123 on the outer surface of the shoulder support body 100 can be selected considering the ergonomics, and it is usually located on the side or top of the shoulder support body 100, which is convenient for the photographer to operate with fingers when holding the shoulder support. The first pressing member 4123 is connected with the first abutting member 4122 and other components protruded from the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity Q through a reasonable transmission structure, such as the first guide inclined groove C1 and the first guide column Z1 structure as described above. When the first pressing member 4123 is pressed down, it can drive the first abutting member 4122 to move, thereby controlling the locking or unlocking state of the first clamping member 4121 and the sliding member 300.
[0087] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The handheld assembly 200 includes a mounting rod 210 and a two-arm handle assembly 220.
