Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electric suction cup brackets for photography, and in particular to an electric suction cup bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Electric suction cups are currently most widely used in the construction industry, but rarely seen in the photography industry. In the photography industry, it is necessary to install photographic equipment, and normally bracket adapters, such as ball joints, are used to switch between different photographic equipment. However, most existing electric suction cups lack structural support and rigidity, so they cannot directly install adapters. In addition, for electric suction cups used in photography, the location of the photographic equipment to be installed needs to be changed frequently due to the need for location changes. Traditional electric suction cups cannot be deflated with one button, and air must be released by manually prying open the handle at the end of the suction cup. This can easily affect the toughness and lifespan of the silicone body of the suction cup, and also cause inconvenience to use. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0024] refer to Figures 1 to 8 :

[0025] This utility model discloses an electric suction cup bracket, including a suction cup assembly 100, a base 200, a ventilation assembly 300, and a bracket assembly 400. The suction cup assembly 100 is disposed at the lower end of the base 200 and achieves suction by removing a vacuum through an adsorption cavity 101 formed inside the suction cup body 11. Specifically, a receiving cavity 203 for mounting components is formed on the inner side of the base 200, and the ventilation assembly 300 is disposed within the receiving cavity 203 of the base 200. A main control board 1 is also disposed inside the base 200, and the bracket assembly 400 is located at the upper end of the base 200. A connector 401 is formed for connection with the camera adapter. Preferably, the connector 401 is an internal threaded hole. In this embodiment, the ventilation assembly 300 includes a four-way connector 31, a first solenoid valve 32, a second solenoid valve 33, a first ventilation pipe 34, a second ventilation pipe 35, a third ventilation pipe 36, and a vacuum pump 37. The four-way connector 31 has four ventilation pipe holes 312, three of which are connected to the ventilation pipes. The lower ventilation pipe hole 312 (i.e., the output end) passes through the suction cup body 11 and communicates with the adsorption chamber 101. One end of the first ventilation pipe 34 is connected to the vacuum pump 37, and the other end is connected to the four-way connector. One of the vent holes 312 of the first vent pipe 34 is connected to the first vent pipe 34. A first solenoid valve 32 is installed on the first vent pipe 34. The first solenoid valve 32 is used to control the vacuum pump 37 to draw a vacuum. One end of the second vent pipe 35 is connected to one of the vent holes 312 of the four-way connector 31, and the other end is connected to the pressure sensor 38. The pressure sensor 38 is used to sense the pressure value inside the vent pipe. Because the four vent holes 312 inside the four-way connector 31 are connected to the adsorption chamber 101, the pressure sensor 38 can detect the pressure value inside the adsorption chamber 101, thereby determining whether the main control board 1 needs to replenish gas (also (This is to continue the extraction) For reference, one end of the third vent pipe 36 is connected to one of the vent holes 312 of the four-way seat 31, and the other end is connected to the second solenoid valve 33. The second solenoid valve 33 is used to control the entry of natural air. When the adsorption chamber 101 is evacuated to a vacuum, the suction cup has an adsorption force and can be adsorbed onto the target adsorption surface, such as the vehicle central control, car window, car roof or wall. When it is necessary to change the target adsorption surface, the second solenoid valve 33 is opened, allowing natural air to enter the adsorption chamber 101 through the third vent pipe 36, thereby causing the adsorption chamber 101 to lose the vacuum condition, thus completing the contact of the suction cup adsorption.

[0026] In this embodiment, the suction cup assembly 100 includes a suction cup body 11 and a fixing base 12. The suction cup body 11 includes a fixing part 111 and a suction cup part 112, wherein the fixing part 111 is located at the upper end of the suction cup part 112 and is integrally formed. The fixing part 111 is provided with a through hole 111a, a fixing cavity 111b and a connecting hole 111c. The base 200 is provided with a first fixing hole 201. The fixing cavity 111b is arranged in a ring-shaped manner around the axis of the fixing part 111. The fixing base 12 is embedded in the fixing cavity 111b. Specifically, the fixing base 12 is a ring-shaped fixing frame with a skeleton. It can be formed by directly casting silicone onto the outside of the fixing base 12 during production using an injection mold to form the suction cup body 11. The fixing base 12 is provided with The second fixing hole 121 is coaxially arranged with the first fixing hole 201, the through hole 111a and the second fixing hole 121. Moreover, a suction cup assembly 100 has more than one set of the first fixing hole 201, the through hole 111a and the second fixing hole 121. In the installation method of the base 200, the base 200 is locked to the suction cup body 11 through the first fixing hole 201 and the second fixing hole 121 and the fixing screw 42 through the through hole 111a. The connecting hole 111c is connected to the suction cavity 101 of the suction cup body 11 and allows the four-way seat 31 to be inserted downward. Here, in the preferred material, the base 200 and the fixing seat 12 are both made of metal material, such as aluminum alloy, so as to provide support rigidity and meet the installation of heavy photography equipment.

[0027] Specifically, in order to increase the internal support of the suction cup body 11, a protrusion 111e is provided on one side of the fixed part 111, and the connecting hole 111c is provided on the protrusion 111e and extends through to the suction cavity 101 of the suction cup body 11. The lower end of the four-way seat 31 is provided with a tube 311, which is inserted into the connecting hole 111c. A filter cotton 39 is provided on the side of the connecting hole 111c near the suction cavity 101 to prevent dust from entering the pipe and causing blockage when suctioning on a wall surface with dust.

[0028] Specifically, the bracket assembly 400 includes an adapter bracket 41 and a fixing screw 42. The adapter bracket 41 is provided with a first fixing hole 411, and the upper end of the base 200 is provided with a second fixing hole 202. The fixing screw 42 passes through the first fixing hole 411 and the second fixing hole 202 to fix the adapter bracket 41 to the upper end of the base 200. The interface 401 is provided at the upper end of the adapter bracket 41.

[0029] In this embodiment, the pressure sensor 38 is mounted on the main control board 1, and the port of the second vent pipe 35 is aligned with the pressure sensor 38. Therefore, there is no need to use extra wires to connect the pressure sensor 38 and the main control board 1, achieving a high degree of integration.

[0030] This embodiment also includes a power supply component, namely a battery 5, which supplies power to the main control board 1. The battery 5 is located on one side of the vacuum pump 37. It also includes a switch 6 and a charging socket 7, which are located on the side of the main control board 1 and extend outwards from the side of the base 200. In a preferred control method, clicking the switch 6 activates the vacuum pump 37, completing the vacuuming process. Simultaneously, the pressure sensor 38 detects the pressure value inside the adsorption chamber 101. When a certain threshold is reached, the vacuum pump 37 stops working. Here, pressure range thresholds can be preset for various adsorption scenarios. When sensor 38 detects a pressure equal to or below the threshold, measures are taken. For example, if the pressure reaches the highest point of the threshold, vacuum pump 37 stops working. When the pressure is detected to be below the lowest point of the threshold, gas is replenished, which means vacuuming is performed to prevent the suction cup from falling. When the suction cup needs to be removed, double-click switch 6. The second solenoid valve 33 controls natural gas to enter the adsorption chamber 101. At the same time, pressure sensor 38 continues to detect. When the threshold at which the suction cup may fall is reached, a flashing light illuminates. Alternatively, an alarm can be installed to remind the person to hold the electric suction cup to prevent it from falling. When switch 6 is pressed again, gas continues to be released until the electric suction cup can be removed.

[0031] The electric suction cup provided by this utility model is fixedly connected to the bracket assembly 400 via a base 200 made of rigid material. The base 200 is fixedly connected to the suction cup body 11, and a fixing seat 12 is also provided inside the suction cup body 11 to form a rigid support from top to bottom, which can provide rigid support for the installation of photographic equipment. On the other hand, this utility model also innovates the pipeline layout by providing a design of two solenoid valves. One of them controls the gas of the vacuum pump 37 to draw air out of the suction chamber 101 of the suction cup body 11 to form a vacuum, and the other controls the entry of natural air. Finally, the suction and degassing are realized by the switch 6, which truly achieves one-button suction and one-button degassing, which is convenient and labor-saving. This utility model also provides a pressure sensor 38, which is directly connected to the suction chamber 101 of the suction cup body 11 to sense. By continuously pumping air through a set threshold, the pressure of the suction chamber 101 of the suction cup body 11 can be monitored and controlled to achieve continuous suction.
