Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera equipment technology, specifically a camera device with cable retraction and extension function. Background Technology
[0002] The photography setup includes various cameras, lenses and related accessories, as well as various equipment and items related to the photography activity, and video recording is often required during large events or parties.
[0003] In some recordings, cameramen need to move around with the cast and crew. Video cameras often need to be connected to signal cables. To ensure that there are enough cables, they are usually laid on the ground. This can easily cause cameramen to trip during movement, and the signal cables are also difficult to store when they get tangled.
[0004] Therefore, a camera device with cable retraction and extension function was designed based on the above technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and solve the problems mentioned in the background technology, this utility model proposes a camera device with cable retraction function.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a camera device with cable retraction function, including a camera body, a frame externally provided on the camera body, a cable retraction tray assembly on the side of the frame, the frame including a lens mounting bracket and a handgrip, a supplementary lighting assembly on the handgrip, the lens mounting bracket including a rectangular frame located outside the camera body, a sliding rod assembly on the upper surface below the rectangular frame, and a sliding sleeve assembly at the bottom of the camera body that cooperates with the sliding rod assembly, the sliding sleeve assembly driving the camera body to slide on the sliding rod assembly.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper inner surface of the rectangular frame is provided with a slide rail, and the camera body is provided with a slider. The slider drives the camera body to move on the slide rail. Corresponding sliding parts are provided at both the top and bottom, which can further ensure the stability of the camera body during movement.
[0008] Furthermore, the slide rod assembly includes two cylindrical slide rods with a gap between them, and the sliding sleeve assembly includes a base plate and circular sleeves disposed on both sides of the base plate. The base plate is disposed between the two cylindrical slide rods, and the circular sleeves are fitted onto the cylindrical slide rods.
[0009] Furthermore, limiting rods are connected to both sides of the two cylindrical slide rods. The limiting rods are detachably connected to the cylindrical slide rods. The setting of the limiting rods prevents the camera body from falling off the lens mount during movement.
[0010] Furthermore, the cable reel assembly includes a storage box and a winding post located in the middle of the storage box. The reel assembly and the frame are detachably connected, which facilitates the selection of the reel assembly according to the required cable length.
[0011] Furthermore, the supplementary lighting assembly includes a supplementary lighting frame and a supplementary light. The supplementary lighting frame is located at the rear end of the handgrip and includes two upwardly extending tubular supports. The supplementary light is fitted onto the supplementary lighting frame. The tubular supports are deformable and bendable. The supplementary light is detachably connected to the supplementary lighting frame. Due to its deformability, the position of the supplementary light can be easily changed. At the same time, due to its fitting, the height of the supplementary light can be adjusted more easily.
[0012] Furthermore, the rectangular frame includes four sets of sides, which are connected in a detachable manner, making it easy to adjust according to the size of the camera body, so that it can be used on more than one type of camera.
[0013] Furthermore, the hand grip frame includes two hand grip supports, which are respectively connected to the sides of the rectangular frame, and two tubular supports are correspondingly arranged at the tails of the two hand grip supports.
[0014] Specifically, in the process of using this application, the frame is first assembled according to the camera body, so that the camera body can be stably installed inside the frame. Then, if the signal cable is too long during use, the cable is wound into the storage box through the winding post in the cable reel assembly. If the cable needs to be unwound, it is unwound through the cable reel assembly. If the camera body needs to be finely adjusted or moved during shooting, it is moved within the rectangular frame through the sliding sleeve assembly and the sliding rail. The photographer holds the handgrip and moves the camera to shoot. The fill light is adjusted according to the required fill light position. The position of the fill light on the fill light frame can be adjusted, and the height of the fill light can be adjusted. At the same time, the position of the fill light can be adjusted by deforming the fill light frame.
[0015] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. This utility model enables the storage of signal cables through a cable management tray assembly, avoiding problems such as messy cables causing difficulty in storage and photographers tripping over cables.
[0017] 2. The rectangular frame of this utility model has a sliding rod assembly on its lower upper surface, and a sliding sleeve assembly that works with the sliding rod assembly is provided at the bottom of the camera body. The sliding sleeve assembly drives the camera body to slide on the sliding rod assembly. The upper inner surface of the rectangular frame has a slider, and the camera body has a slide rail. The camera body drives the slide rail to move relative to the slider. Corresponding sliding parts are provided at both the top and bottom, which can further ensure the stability of the camera body during movement.
[0018] 3. In this utility model, limiting rods are connected to both sides of the two cylindrical sliding rods. The limiting rods are detachably connected to the cylindrical sliding rods. The setting of the limiting rods prevents the camera body from falling off the lens mounting bracket during movement.
[0019] 4. The rectangular frame of this utility model includes four sets of sides, and the connection of the four sets of sides is detachable, which makes it easy to adjust according to the size of the camera body, so that it can be used on more than one type of camera. Attached Figure Description
