DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the personnel in the technical field better understand the present application, the following will combine the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0027] The technical solutions in the utility model embodiments will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the utility model embodiments.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The utility model embodiment provides a teleprompter 10, the teleprompter 10 includes main shell 100, beam splitter support 200 and back cover 300, the main shell 100 is used to butt joint camera equipment, the beam splitter support 200 rotatably connected in the main shell 100, and it is used to install beam splitter, the back cover 300 rotatably connected in the beam splitter support 200, and it is used to place demonstration document, wherein, the back cover 300 under the action of external force relative to the beam splitter support 200 rotates to the first angle, and the back cover 300 drives the beam splitter support 200 relative to the main shell 100 rotates to the second angle through linkage structure 400.Such, relative to the traditional teleprompter, the teleprompter 10 of the application is through the linkage design between back cover 300 and beam splitter support 200, and user only needs to rotate back cover 300 to the specified first angle, and can automatically drive beam splitter support 200 to rotate to the appropriate second angle, which helps to significantly reduce the operation steps that user needs to perform in the preparation process, so that the opening of teleprompter 10 is more convenient and fast.
[0029] In some embodiments, the linkage structure 400 includes a first rotating part 410 and a second rotating part 420, the first rotating part 410 is connected to the back cover 300, the second rotating part 420 is connected to the beam splitter support 200, the first rotating part 410 is rotatably connected to the second rotating part 420 through a first rotating shaft 430, and the second rotating part 420 is rotatably connected to the main shell 100 through a second rotating shaft 440. Such connection of the first rotating part 410 and the back cover 300 and the second rotating part 420 and the beam splitter support 200 ensures the coordinated movement between the back cover 300 and the beam splitter support 200.
[0030] In addition, since the first rotating part 410 and the second rotating part 420 and the second rotating part 420 and the main shell 100 are connected by precise rotating shafts, this design ensures that each rotation can be accurately performed according to the preset ratio, improving the consistency and accuracy of position adjustment.
[0031] In some embodiments, the first rotating part 410 is provided with a first stop structure 411; the light splitting mirror support 200 is provided with a second stop structure 210; the first rotating part 410 is rotationally connected to the second rotating part 420 through the second rotating shaft 440; after the first rotating part 410 rotates relative to the second rotating part 420 to a first angle under the action of an external force, the first stop structure 411 and the second stop structure 210 stop cooperating. In this way, by providing the first stop structure 411 and the second stop structure 210, it can be ensured that the first rotating part 410 can only rotate to a preset first angle, preventing over-rotation. This helps to maintain the correct positional relationship between the parts of the teleprompter 10, avoiding damage to the equipment due to improper operation.
[0032] In addition, the stop structures are locked when reaching the set angle, which can effectively prevent the first rotating part 410 from moving accidentally due to external forces (such as wind, collision, etc.), thereby maintaining the stability and reliability of the entire teleprompter 10 device. Moreover, due to the presence of the stop structures, the user does not need to remember specific angle values or worry about whether they have adjusted to the optimal position. They only need to rotate the back cover 300 until they feel the stop, greatly simplifying the operation process and improving the convenience of use.
[0033] In some embodiments, the first stop structure 411 is provided with a first stop surface, and the second stop structure 210 is provided with a second stop surface; when the first stop structure 411 and the second stop structure 210 stop cooperating, the first stop surface and the second stop surface abut each other. In this way, by the abutment of the first stop surface and the second stop surface, it can be ensured that the relative position between the first rotating part 410 and the light splitting mirror support 200 is accurately defined at the preset first angle. This provides a clear position reference point for the user, ensuring that the equipment is in the best working state every time it is used.
[0034] In addition, the contact between the two stop surfaces provides additional support force, making the entire structure more stable. Even if slight external forces or vibrations are encountered during use, it can remain stationary, avoiding unnecessary displacement or loosening.
[0035] In some embodiments, the light splitting mirror support 200 and the second rotating part 420 enclose a first mounting cavity 220, and the first rotating part 410 is located in the first mounting cavity 220. In this way, by integrating the first rotating part 410 in the first mounting cavity 220, the design of the entire teleprompter 10 becomes more compact, reducing unnecessary additional space occupation. This is particularly important for devices that need to be carried and moved for use, improving portability and storage efficiency.
[0036] In addition, hiding the first rotating part 410 in the first mounting cavity 220 can make the appearance of the teleprompter 10 more concise and beautiful, avoiding visual confusion caused by exposed mechanical parts.
[0037] In some embodiments, the second rotating part 420 is provided with a third stop structure 421; the main shell 100 comprises a main shell body 110 and a mounting part 120 connected to each other, the main shell body 110 is used to dock the camera equipment; the mounting part 120 is provided with a fourth stop structure 121; wherein when the rear cover 300 drives the beam splitter support 200 to rotate to the second angle relative to the main shell 100, the third stop structure 421 and the fourth stop structure 121 stop cooperating. In this way, through the cooperation of the third stop structure 421 and the fourth stop structure 121, the maximum rotation angle of the beam splitter support 200 relative to the main shell 100 can be accurately limited, and it is ensured to stay at the preset second angle position.
[0038] In addition, the user does not need to remember a specific angle value or worry about whether it has been adjusted to the correct position. Only need to rotate the rear cover 300 until feeling the stop, which greatly simplifies the operation process and improves the convenience of use.
[0039] In some embodiments, the mounting part 120 is provided with a second mounting cavity 122, and the second rotating part 420 is installed in the second mounting cavity 122 through the first rotating shaft 430. In this way, by integrating the second rotating part 420 in the second mounting cavity 122 of the mounting part 120, the design of the entire teleprompter 10 becomes more compact, reducing unnecessary space occupation.
[0040] In addition, hiding the second rotating part 420 in the second mounting cavity 122 can make the appearance of the teleprompter 10 more concise and beautiful, avoiding visual confusion caused by exposed mechanical parts.
[0041] In some embodiments, the mounting part 120 is provided with a reinforcing rib 123 connected to the fourth stop structure 121 and the mounting part 120. In this way, the reinforcing rib 123 helps to resist deformation caused by external pressure or internal stress. This is crucial for maintaining the precise cooperation between the components of the teleprompter 10, especially for equipment that needs accurate angle positioning, preventing deformation can ensure its long-term stable performance.
[0042] In addition, the reinforcing rib 123 can prevent the fourth stop structure 121 from breaking or failing due to excessive force, thereby avoiding possible safety hazards.
[0043] In some embodiments, the back cover 300 is provided with a first clamping part 310, and the main shell 100 is provided with a second clamping part 130; the teleprompter 10 can be selectively in an open state or a closed state, when the teleprompter 10 is in the closed state, the second clamping part 130 is clamped and fixed with the first clamping part 310; when the teleprompter 10 is in the open state, the second clamping part 130 is separated from the first clamping part 310. In this way, the clamping structure usually emits a "click" sound or has a clear resistance change, which provides intuitive operation feedback for the user, so that the user knows that the teleprompter 10 has been safely locked. Similarly, when opening, the user can also be confirmed by the action of separation.
[0044] In the closed state, the clamped teleprompter 10 is more compact, facilitating carrying and storage. Whether put into a backpack or other storage space, the occupied space can be reduced, and it is not easy to scatter.
[0045] Moreover, through a simple and reliable clamping mechanism, the user can easily convert the teleprompter 10 from the closed state to the open state, and vice versa. This simple operation improves the user's experience, enabling them to quickly prepare or tidy up the equipment.
[0046] In some embodiments, the teleprompter 10 further comprises a flexible light shield 500 connected between the main shell 100 and the beam splitter support 200. The flexible light shield 500 can be nylon cloth or polyester cloth, etc. In this way, the flexible light shield 500 can effectively block stray light from the outside, preventing these light from reflecting onto the beam splitter, thereby avoiding interference with the speaker's or performer's line of sight. This helps to improve the clarity and readability of the displayed content. In addition, by blocking ambient light, the flexible light shield 500 can help improve the contrast between the screen display content and the background, making the text more distinct and easy to read.
[0047] Moreover, in some cases, the speaker may not want the audience to see the content on the teleprompter 10. The flexible light shield 500 can provide a certain degree of privacy protection, so that only the speaker can clearly see the text on the screen, while the audience cannot.
