Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photographic equipment, specifically to a photographic equipment mounting bracket and a photographic kit. Background Technology
[0002] With economic development and the increasing popularity of smartphones and cameras, the photography, videography, and live streaming industries are booming. More and more people are developing a passion for photography, leading to the proliferation of various photographic equipment. These devices typically include interfaces for connecting various external accessories, such as cold shoes, hot shoes, NATO connectors, threaded connectors, and chain mounts, to facilitate the installation of the equipment and the connection and fixation of external accessories.
[0003] How to install photographic equipment is also a common problem, and brackets are often used in this field to mount and secure the equipment. However, different photographic devices on the market may have different interface specifications. Therefore, existing mounting brackets are generally incompatible with photographic devices with different interface structures, which limits their use. The above-mentioned problems are technical issues that urgently need to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a camera equipment mounting bracket and camera kit, which can be connected and adapted to camera equipment with different interface structures.
[0005] According to a first aspect, this application provides a photographic equipment mounting bracket, comprising:
[0006] Support body;
[0007] A threaded connector is movably mounted on the bracket body and is used for threaded connection with the threaded interface of a photographic device.
[0008] And two positioning components, both of which are embedded on the same side of the bracket body, and the two positioning components are distributed around the threaded connector. Along the radial direction of the threaded connector, the distance between the central axis of the two positioning components and the central axis of the threaded connector is different.
[0009] The positioning component includes a movable part that protrudes from the surface of the bracket body. When pressed, the movable part can move relative to the bracket body along the axial direction of the threaded connector, so that the two positioning components can be selectively engaged with the corresponding positioning hole on the camera equipment through the movable part of one of the positioning components. The bracket body is connected and fixed to the camera equipment through the threaded connector.
[0010] In one optional embodiment, the positioning member further includes a fixing part and an elastic part. The fixing part is embedded in the bracket body and is flush with or below the surface of the bracket body. The fixing part and the movable part are movably engaged. The first end of the elastic part is connected to the fixing part or the bracket body, and the second end of the elastic part is connected to the movable part. The movable part is elastically positioned on the bracket body through the fixing part and the elastic part.
[0011] In one optional embodiment, the bracket body is provided with two blind holes, two positioning members are installed in one blind hole, the fixing part is connected and fixed to the hole wall of the blind hole, the fixing part is sleeved outside the movable part, the first end of the elastic member is connected to or abuts against the bottom wall of the blind hole, and the movable part is elastically set in the blind hole through the fixing part and the elastic member.
[0012] In one optional embodiment, the movable part is provided with a flange at one end near the bottom wall of the blind hole. The movable part slides with the blind hole through the flange. The outer diameter of the flange is larger than the diameter of the center hole of the fixed part. The flange is located between the fixed part and the bottom wall of the blind hole. The movable part and the fixed part are limited by the flange.
[0013] In one alternative embodiment, two locating elements are distributed on opposite sides of the threaded connector along the radial direction of the threaded connector.
[0014] In one optional embodiment, the bracket body includes a mounting base and a base, the base being detachably mounted on the mounting base and positioned in conjunction with the mounting base, with two positioning members embedded on the same side of the base; a threaded connector is movably disposed on the mounting base, and the base has a functional hole through which the threaded connector passes.
[0015] In one optional embodiment, a groove is formed on the end face of the mounting base, and a threaded connector is movably disposed on the bottom wall of the groove; the groove has two opposing first side walls, both of which are inclined, and the distance between the two first side walls gradually increases along the opening direction of the groove, and the ends of the two first side walls connected to the bottom wall are close to each other, while the ends of the two first side walls corresponding to the openings are far apart from each other.
[0016] The base has positioning ramps at its two opposite ends. The two positioning ramps are located on the side of the base away from the positioning component and are used to align with the two first sidewalls one by one.
[0017] In one optional embodiment, the functional hole is a threaded hole, and the mounting base also has a waist-shaped hole that penetrates the bottom wall of the sink. When the base is installed in the sink, the threaded connector can pass through the waist-shaped hole and be threadedly connected to the base. The positioning member and the threaded connector as a whole can be adjusted in position along the length direction of the waist-shaped hole.
[0018] In one optional embodiment, the bracket body has an annular groove on the end face of the two positioning members. The threaded connector and the two positioning members are spaced apart from the annular groove and are both located in the inner ring of the annular groove. The camera equipment mounting bracket also includes a flexible gasket, which is installed in the annular groove.
[0019] According to the second aspect, this application also provides a photography kit, including a monitor and the aforementioned photography equipment mounting bracket, wherein the monitor has a threaded interface, or the monitor has a threaded interface and a positioning hole, and the photography equipment mounting bracket is optionally connected and fixed to the monitor at least by a threaded connector.
[0020] According to the above embodiment, the camera equipment mounting bracket can be connected and fixed to a camera with a threaded interface via a threaded connector, thereby fixing the camera to the bracket body. Both positioning members can be aligned and engaged with positioning holes on the camera equipment via movable parts. After the threaded connector is connected and fixed to the camera equipment, if the position of the positioning member differs from the position of the positioning hole on the camera equipment, the positioning member will be pressed back down under the action of the camera equipment, so as not to interfere with the assembly of the bracket body and the camera equipment. Because the distance between the central axis of the two positioning parts and the central axis of the threaded connector is different—that is, the movable part of one positioning part is closer to the threaded connector and the movable part of the other positioning part is farther away from the threaded connector—the two positioning parts are compatible with different photographic equipment. The two positioning parts of the photographic equipment mounting bracket can be pressed down simultaneously. The two positioning parts can also be aligned and engaged with the positioning hole of the photographic equipment through one of them, realizing universality and compatibility with photographic equipment with different interface structures, expanding the application range of the photographic equipment mounting bracket. At the same time, under the combined action of the positioning parts and the threaded connector, the photographic equipment can be stably fixed to the bracket body, effectively preventing the photographic equipment from moving, and improving the practicality and stability of the photographic equipment mounting bracket.

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Similar elements in different embodiments are referred to by related similar element reference numerals. In the following embodiments, many details are described to facilitate a better understanding of the present application. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that some features may be omitted in different situations, or may be replaced by other elements, materials, or methods. In some cases, certain operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification. This is to avoid obscuring the core parts of the present application with excessive description. For those skilled in the art, detailed description of these related operations is not necessary; they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and general technical knowledge in the art.
[0032] Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can be rearranged or adjusted in a manner obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various orders in the specification and drawings are only for the clear description of a particular embodiment and do not imply a necessary order, unless otherwise stated that a particular order must be followed.
[0033] The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first" and "second," are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).
[0034] Commonly available photographic equipment is equipped with interfaces for connecting various external accessories, including but not limited to cold shoe, hot shoe, NATO interface, geared connector, and threaded interface. Threaded interfaces are widely used due to their simple structure and connection method. However, there are various photographic devices on the market that use threaded interfaces for external connections. Some devices may only have a threaded interface, while others may have positioning holes around the threaded interface. Furthermore, the dimensions and distances between the positioning holes and the threaded interface may differ. Therefore, existing photographic equipment mounting brackets are difficult to use for mounting photographic equipment with different interface schemes. To solve the above technical problems, this invention provides a photographic equipment mounting bracket and a photographic kit, which allows for structural matching and connection fixing with photographic equipment with different interface structures.
[0035] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-9 The photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 provided by this utility model includes a bracket body 100, a threaded connector 200, and two positioning members 300. The threaded connector 200 is movably disposed on the bracket body 100 and is used for threaded connection with the threaded interface of the photographic equipment. The two positioning members 300 are both embedded on the same side of the bracket body 100, and the two positioning members 300 are distributed circumferentially on the threaded connector 200. Along the radial direction of the threaded connector 200, the distance between the central axis of the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 is different. Among them, the positioning member 300 includes a movable part 310, which protrudes from the surface of the bracket body 100. After being pressed, the movable part 310 can move relative to the bracket body 100 along the axial direction of the threaded connector 200, so that the two positioning members 300 can be selectively engaged with the corresponding positioning hole on the photographic equipment through the movable part 310 of one of the positioning members 300. The bracket body 100 is connected and fixed to the photographic equipment through the threaded connector 200.
[0036] The camera mounting bracket 1000 is connected and fixed to a camera with a threaded interface via a threaded connector 200, thereby securing the camera to the bracket body 100. Both positioning members 300 can engage with the matching camera via movable parts 310. Specifically, the movable part 310 is used to align and engage with positioning holes on the camera. After the threaded connector 200 is connected and fixed to the camera, if the position of the positioning member 300 differs from the position of the positioning hole on the camera, the positioning member 300 will be pressed down by the camera, changing its length protruding from the bracket body 100. Because the distances between the central axes of the two positioning elements 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 are different—that is, the movable part 310 of one positioning element 300 is closer to the threaded connector 200, and the movable part 310 of the other positioning element 300 is farther away from the threaded connector 200—the two positioning elements 300 are compatible with different photographic equipment. This allows the photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 to position two types of photographic equipment with different distances between the positioning holes and the threaded interface using the two positioning elements 300. This can be achieved simply by designing the spacing between the positioning elements 300 and the threaded connector 200 according to common market specifications. Specifically, when installing photographic equipment, if the spacing between the positioning hole and the threaded interface on the photographic equipment matches the spacing between one of the positioning elements 300 and the threaded connector 200, the two can be engaged by manually aligning the positioning hole and the positioning element 300. At this time, the other positioning element 300 will be pressed down by the photographic equipment because it is misaligned with the positioning hole, without interfering with the assembly and fixation of the photographic equipment.
[0037] In other words, the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 provided in this embodiment has multiple usage states. If the camera equipment does not have positioning holes or the movable parts 310 of the two positioning members 300 cannot be aligned with the positioning holes, the two positioning members 300 of the mounting bracket 1000 can be pressed down by the camera equipment simultaneously. In this case, the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 is only connected and fixed to the camera equipment through the threaded connector 200, and the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 does not provide positioning for the camera equipment. Alternatively, one of the two positioning members 300 can be aligned and engaged with the positioning hole of the camera equipment. In this case, under the combined action of the threaded connector 200 and the positioning member 300, the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 provides connection, positioning, and anti-deflection functions for the camera equipment, improving connection stability. The camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 can achieve universality and compatibility with camera equipment with different interface structures, expanding the scope of application of the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000. At the same time, with the joint action of the positioning component 300 and the threaded connector 200, the camera equipment can be stably fixed to the bracket body 100, effectively preventing the camera equipment from moving and improving the practicality and stability of the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000.
[0038] The aforementioned "movable part 310 can move relative to the support body 100 along the axial direction of the threaded connector 200 after being pressed" can have various implementation schemes. For example, in some embodiments, the moving direction of the movable part 310 can be directly parallel to the axial direction of the threaded connector 200, so that the size of the movable part 310 protruding from the side surface of the support body 100 gradually decreases; in other embodiments, the movable part 310 can be a scheme with a moving component parallel to the axial direction of the threaded connector 200, that is, in the initial state, the movable part 310 protrudes from the side surface of the support body 100, and after being pressed, the movable part 310 will move towards the other side surface of the support body 100, so that the size of the movable part 310 protruding from the side surface of the support body 100 decreases. At this time, the movable part 310 has a moving component along the axial direction of the threaded connector 200 and a moving component perpendicular to the axial direction of the threaded connector 200.
[0039] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5-9 The positioning component 300 also includes a fixing part 320 and an elastic member 330. The fixing part 320 is embedded in the bracket body 100, and the positioning component 300 is fixed to the bracket body 100 through the fixing part 320. The fixing part 320 is flush with or lower than the surface of the bracket body 100 to avoid interference with the installation of the photographic equipment. The fixing part 320 and the movable part 310 are movably engaged. The first end of the elastic member 330 is connected to the fixing part 320 or the bracket body 100, and the second end of the elastic member 330 is connected to the movable part 310. The movable part 310 is elastically set on the bracket body 100 through the fixing part 320 and the elastic member 330. The elastic member 330 provides a resetting force for the movable part 310, so that the movable part 310 can remain protruding from the surface of the bracket body 100 without external force, allowing the size of the movable part 310 protruding from the surface of the bracket body 100 to adapt to changes. In addition, the term "connection" here includes both direct connection and fixed connection as well as force transmission through contact.
[0040] In some embodiments, the positioning member 300 can be designed as a self-extending structure, that is, the two ends of the elastic member 330 are connected to the fixed part 320 and the movable part 310 respectively. Under the action of the elastic member 330, the movable part 310 can move relative to the fixed part 320 after being subjected to force, and can extend without the action of external force, so that the movable part 310 can protrude from the surface of the bracket body 100.
[0041] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5-9The bracket body 100 has two blind holes 122. Two positioning members 300 are installed in one of the blind holes 122. The fixing part 320 is connected and fixed to the wall of the blind hole 122. The fixing part 320 is sleeved outside the movable part 310. The first end of the elastic member 330 is connected to or abuts against the bottom wall of the blind hole 122. The movable part 310 is elastically set in the blind hole 122 through the fixing part 320 and the elastic member 330. It should be noted that the distance between the two blind holes 122 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 matches the distance between the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200. That is, the distance between the two blind holes 122 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 is different, so that the distance between the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 can be different.
[0042] This utility model does not limit the specific connection and fixing scheme between the fixing part 320 and the hole wall of the blind hole 122. For example, in some embodiments, the fixing part 320 and the blind hole 122 can adopt a connection scheme of optical axis structure and optical hole interference fit; in other embodiments, the fixing part 320 and the blind hole 122 can also adopt a threaded connection scheme to ensure the strength of the connection and fixation and reduce the assembly difficulty.
[0043] Of course, those skilled in the art should know that in other embodiments, the movable part 310 can be sleeved outside the fixed part 320. There are many ways to assemble and structure the positioning member 300. This utility model does not limit any of them, as long as the structural principle of the positioning member 300 can be realized and the movable part 310 can be accommodated in the blind hole 122 after being pressed.
[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 7-9 To prevent the movable part 310 from detaching from the fixed part 320 under the action of the elastic member 330, a flange edge 311 may be provided at one end of the movable part 310 near the bottom wall of the blind hole 122. The movable part 310 slides with the blind hole 122 through the flange edge 311. The outer diameter of the flange edge 311 is larger than the diameter of the central hole of the fixed part 320. The flange edge 311 is located between the fixed part 320 and the bottom wall of the blind hole 122. The movable part 310 and the fixed part 320 are limited by the flange edge 311, so that the movable part 310 is limited in both directions by the bottom wall of the blind hole 122 and the flange edge 311, thus determining the maximum range of movement of the movable part 310.
[0045] This invention does not specifically limit the distribution of the threaded connector 200 and the two positioning members 300, as long as the distances between the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 are different. In some embodiments, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2Along the radial direction of the threaded connector 200, two positioning elements 300 are distributed on opposite sides of the threaded connector 200 to facilitate the distribution of the center of gravity of the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000 and improve the stability of the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000.
[0046] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figures 6-7 The two positioning elements 300 are distributed on opposite sides of the threaded connector 200 along the same diameter. In other words, the central axis of the threaded connector 200 is located on the line connecting the central axes of the two positioning elements 300, so as to solve the problem of center of gravity shift caused by the asymmetrical installation of the two positioning elements 300 to the greatest extent and further improve the stability of the camera equipment mounting bracket 1000.
[0047] In some embodiments, a pad 400 may be provided on one side surface of the bracket body 100 where two positioning members 300 are mounted, to further stabilize and support the photographic equipment.
[0048] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-9 The bracket body 100 includes a mounting base 110 and a base 120. The base 120 is detachably mounted on the mounting base 110, and the base 120 and the mounting base 110 are positioned and engaged. Two positioning members 300 are embedded on the same side of the base 120. A threaded connector 200 is movably disposed on the mounting base 110. The base 120 has a functional hole 121 through which the threaded connector 200 passes. Therefore, the base 120 and the two positioning members 300 can be prefabricated as an integral structure, and then the base 120 with the positioning members 300 installed can be placed on the mounting base 110. Those skilled in the art should know that when this photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 is applied to photographic equipment without positioning holes, the user can assemble or remove the base 120 as needed without interfering with the connection between the threaded connector 200 and the photographic equipment. This allows the photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 of this utility model to have multiple usage structures, providing users with more choices and possessing high practicality and compatibility.
[0049] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-4To simplify the detachable connection between the base 120 and the mounting base 110, a recess 111 is formed on the end face of the mounting base 110, and a threaded connector 200 is movably disposed on the bottom wall of the recess 111. To stably position the base 120 on the mounting base 110, the recess 111 has two opposing first sidewalls 112, both of which are inclined. Along the opening direction of the recess 111, the distance between the two first sidewalls 112 gradually increases, and the ends of the two first sidewalls 112 connected to the bottom wall are close to each other, while the ends of the two first sidewalls 112 corresponding to the openings are away from each other. Positioning inclined surfaces 124 are respectively provided at opposite ends of the base 120. The two positioning inclined surfaces 124 are located on the side of the base 120 away from the positioning member 300, and the two positioning inclined surfaces 124 are used to align and cooperate with the two first sidewalls 112 one by one. In other words, the bottom wall of the sink 111 and the two first side walls 112 form a funnel-shaped structural space. The sink 111 and the base 120 cooperate through matching inclined surfaces, which serve to support and position the base 120. After the threaded connector 200 locks the mounting base 110 and the photographic equipment, the base 120 and the mounting base 110 are pressed together through the inclined surface structure. The base 120 is stably clamped between the mounting base 110 and the photographic equipment, which improves the installation stability of the photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000.
[0050] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-5 The base 120 has a protrusion 123 on the side opposite to the positioning member 300, and the positioning inclined surface 124 is located at the opposite ends of the protrusion 123.
[0051] The photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 of this utility model can be adapted to photographic equipment with an interface structure that includes both a threaded interface 2 and a positioning hole. This application does not limit the positioning scheme between the functional hole 121 of the base 120, the two positioning members 300, the mounting base 110, and the threaded connector 200, as long as the positions are determined and the two positioning members 300 are distributed around the circumference of the threaded connector 200, and the distance between the central axis of the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 is different.
[0052] For example, in some embodiments, to simplify the assembly process and keep the relative positions between the two positioning elements 300 and the threaded connector 200 constant, the functional hole 121 can be a smooth hole or a threaded hole that matches the size of the threaded connector 200. The threaded connector 200 passes through the bottom wall of the recess 111 and is threadedly connected to the bottom wall of the recess 111 to achieve the installation of the threaded connector 200, preventing the threaded connector 200 from detaching from the mounting base 110, and keeping the position of the threaded connector 200 on the mounting base 110 unchanged. At this time, the relative position of the threaded connector 200 and the mounting base 110 is determined, and then the relative positions of the mounting base 110 and the base 120 are correspondingly positioned, so that the two positioning elements 300 are distributed around the circumference of the threaded connector 200.
[0053] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 Functional hole 121 is a threaded hole. Mounting base 110 also has a waist-shaped hole 113 that penetrates the bottom wall of sink 111. When base 120 is installed in sink 111, threaded connector 200 can pass through waist-shaped hole 113 and be threadedly connected to base 120. Positioning member 300 and threaded connector 200 can be adjusted along the length of waist-shaped hole 113 to facilitate the adaptation of different sizes of photographic equipment and to facilitate the adjustment of the position between photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 and photographic equipment. This allows for the adjustment of the center of gravity of photographic equipment to fall on mounting base 110, ensuring that photographic equipment can be stably installed on photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000, effectively improving the adjustability and practicality of photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000.
[0054] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 To stably support the photographic equipment, the bracket body 100 has two positioning members 300 and annular grooves 125 on their end faces. The threaded connector 200 and the two positioning members 300 are spaced apart from the annular grooves 125 and are all located in the inner ring of the annular grooves 125. The photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 also includes a flexible pad 400, which is installed in the annular grooves 125 to stably install and support the photographic equipment, while effectively reducing wear between the base 120 and the photographic equipment.
[0055] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-5To enable the photography equipment and the support body 100 to be adjusted as a whole, the support body 100 also includes an adjustment base 130 and a connecting arm 140. One end of the adjustment base 130 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 110 about a first rotation axis, and the other end of the adjustment base 130 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 140 about a second rotation axis, thereby enabling horizontal rotation adjustment and pitch angle adjustment. In some embodiments, the overall cooperation scheme and principle of the adjustment base 130 and the connecting arm 140 can refer to the structure and principle of the snail gimbal. Since the snail gimbal is a prior art solution, it will not be elaborated here.
[0056] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-4 The other end of the connecting arm 140 away from the adjustment seat 130 is also provided with an external interface 141. The external interface 141 is one of a cold shoe mount, a NATO slide bar, or a threaded fastener. The external interface 141 can be used to connect the mounting bracket to another external device, including but not limited to a camera, a camera cage, and a mobile phone.
[0057] Based on the same inventive concept, this utility model also discloses a photography kit, including a monitor and the photography equipment mounting bracket 1000 in the above embodiments. The monitor is a photography device, and the monitor has a threaded interface, or the monitor has a threaded interface and a positioning hole. The photography equipment mounting bracket 1000 can optionally be connected and fixed to the monitor at least through a threaded connector 200. In other words, this photography kit can include multiple matching solutions. The monitor can be a structure with only a threaded interface, or it can be a structure with both a threaded interface and a positioning hole. However, the photography mounting bracket is provided with two positioning members 300 with different spacing from the threaded connector 200, and the positioning members 300 can move relative to the bracket body 100 after being subjected to axial pressure along the threaded connector. This will not affect the assembly of the camera and the bracket body 100, thus achieving compatibility and adaptation. This allows for various monitor structures in front-end production and manufacturing, which is beneficial to improving the overall performance of the product.
[0058] In summary, the photographic equipment mounting bracket 1000 and photographic kit provided by this utility model have at least the following beneficial effects:
[0059] The camera mounting bracket 1000 can be connected and fixed to a camera with a threaded interface via a threaded connector 200, thereby fixing the camera to the bracket body 100. The movable part 310 is used for alignment and snap-fit with the positioning hole on the camera. After the threaded connector 200 is connected and fixed to the camera, if the position of the positioning part 300 is different from the position of the positioning hole on the camera, the positioning part 300 will be pressed down by the camera to avoid interfering with the assembly of the bracket body and the camera. Because the distance between the central axis of the two positioning members 300 and the central axis of the threaded connector 200 is different—that is, the movable part 310 of one positioning member 300 is closer to the threaded connector 200, and the movable part 310 of the other positioning member 300 is farther away from the threaded connector 200—the two positioning members 300 can be adapted to different photographic devices. The two positioning members 300 of the photographic device mounting bracket 1000 can be pressed down simultaneously. The two positioning members 300 can also be aligned and engaged with the positioning hole of the photographic device through one of them, achieving universality and compatibility with photographic devices of different interface structures. This expands the applicability of the photographic device mounting bracket 1000. Simultaneously, the combined action of the positioning members 300 and the threaded connector 200 can stably fix the photographic device to the bracket body 100, effectively preventing the photographic device from shifting position and improving the practicality and stability of the photographic device mounting bracket 1000.
