[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a universal adjusting support 100 for installing a photography auxiliary accessory, which comprises a mounting structure 10, a first supporting arm 20, a second supporting arm 30 and a damping adjusting assembly 40. One end of the mounting structure 10 is provided with a mounting piece 11 for connecting with an external supporting device, and the other end is provided with a universal connecting piece 12. One end of the first supporting arm 20 is connected with the universal connecting piece 12, and the other end is provided with a rotating structure 21. One end of the second supporting arm 30 is rotatably connected with the first supporting arm 20 through the rotating structure 21, and the other end is provided with a holder 31 for installing the photography auxiliary accessory. The rotating structure 21 comprises a locking assembly 211 for locking the first supporting arm 20 and the mounting structure 10 and the second supporting arm 30 and the first supporting arm 20. The damping adjusting assembly 40 is connected with the holder 31 and is used for adjusting the damping force of the holder 31 relative to the second supporting arm 30.
[0041] The universal adjusting support 100 is connected with the external supporting device through the mounting piece 11 at one end of the mounting structure 10 to provide basic support for the whole support. The universal connecting piece 12 at the other end of the mounting structure 10 enables the first supporting arm 20 to rotate flexibly in multiple directions, thereby realizing multi-angle adjustment.
[0042] It should be noted that the external support device can be a tripod or a shoulder bracket commonly used in photography to provide support for the universal adjusting support 100 in various scenes such as outdoors and indoors, facilitating shooting. The mounting member 11 can be a screw interface, a quick mounting plate, or a clamping type mounting member 11, etc. to facilitate the installation of the universal adjusting support 100 on the external support device, which can be selected and set according to the actual situation, and the present application embodiment does not limit it.
[0043] The first arm 20 is rotatably connected to the second arm 30 through the rotating structure 21, and the other end of the second arm 30 is provided with a gimbal 31 for installing a photography auxiliary accessory. This design enables the photography auxiliary accessory to be adjusted in multiple dimensions. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the locking assembly 211 is loosened, and the first arm 20 and the mounting structure 10, and the second arm 30 and the first arm 20 can be freely rotated; after adjusting to the appropriate angle, the locking assembly 211 is locked to fix the relative positions of the components.
[0044] The damping adjusting assembly 40 is connected to the gimbal 31, and by adjusting the damping force of the gimbal 31 relative to the second arm 30, the user can make the gimbal 31 obtain appropriate resistance when rotating according to actual needs. In this way, when adjusting the angle of the gimbal 31, it can be more accurately and stably controlled to avoid the gimbal 31 from shaking randomly due to external force.
[0045] When adjusting, the part that does not need to be adjusted can be locked by the locking assembly 211 to avoid the inconvenience of holding the photography auxiliary accessory with one hand, and during shooting, the locking assembly 211 can be loosened to adjust the damping force of the gimbal 31 through the damping adjusting assembly 40, so that the gimbal 31 can rotate smoothly, and the angle of the photography auxiliary accessory can be adjusted in real time, without being unable to provide stable support for real-time adjustment like the traditional universal adjusting support 100, greatly enhancing the stability, avoiding the photography auxiliary accessory from shaking during shooting, and improving the efficiency and flexibility of shooting.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the locking assembly 211 comprises a resisting member 2111, a connecting member 2112, a driving member 2113 and a control member 2114. The resisting member 2111 is movably arranged in the first supporting arm 20 and is used to resist the universal connecting member 12 to lock the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12 or to release the universal connecting member 12 to unlock the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12. The connecting member 2112 is sequentially arranged in the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 to connect the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 together. The driving member 2113 is connected with the connecting member 2112 and is used to drive the resisting member 2111 to resist or release the universal connecting member 12. The control member 2114 is connected with the connecting member 2112 and is used to drive the connecting member 2112 to move and drive the driving member 2113 to move.
[0047] When it is needed to lock the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12, the control member 2114 is operated to drive the connecting member 2112 to move. Since the driving member 2113 is connected with the connecting member 2112, the movement of the connecting member 2112 drives the driving member 2113 to move. The driving member 2113 further drives the resisting member 2111 to move in the first supporting arm 20, so that the resisting member 2111 resists the universal connecting member 12. Through the frictional force between the resisting member 2111 and the universal connecting member 12, the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12 are tightly fixed together to realize the locking function, limit the relative rotation therebetween and ensure that the angle will not be changed at will during use.
[0048] When it is needed to adjust the angle or other operations, the control member 2114 is operated again to reversely drive the connecting member 2112 to move, drive the driving member 2113 to reversely move and drive the resisting member 2111 to release the resistance to the universal connecting member 12, so that the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12 can freely rotate to facilitate the angle adjustment or other operations.
[0049] For the connection of the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30, the connecting member 2112 is sequentially arranged in the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30. When the resisting member 2111 resists the universal connecting member 12 to realize the locking, the connection of the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 is indirectly made more stable, so that the whole structure forms a relatively stable whole in the locked state.
[0050] In this embodiment, the control member 2114 is used to uniformly drive the connecting member 2112 and the driving member 2113 to further control the resisting and releasing actions of the resisting member 2111. The user only needs to operate this one component, the control member 2114, to realize the locking and unlocking of the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12, without the need for complex operation steps, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of use.
[0051] Further, the abutting member 2111 is movably arranged in the first branch arm 20, the connecting member 2112 is sequentially arranged through the first branch arm 20 and the second branch arm 30, the driving member 2113 is connected with the connecting member 2112, and the control member 2114 is also connected with the connecting member 2112. Such a compact structure design has a reasonable layout between components, and realizes the complex locking function without increasing too much volume and weight, which is conducive to the miniaturization and light weight of the universal adjusting support 100, and facilitates the carrying and use.
[0052] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 211 further comprises an elastic member 2115, which is sleeved on the connecting member 2112 and compressed between the first branch arm 20 and the second branch arm 30.
[0053] During the operation of adjusting the relative angle between the first branch arm 20 and the second branch arm 30, the elastic member 2115 can play a certain buffering role, avoiding damage between components due to direct collision or friction, reducing the damage risk of components caused by frequent locking, unlocking and angle adjustment, reducing the wear and impact of components during operation, thereby prolonging the service life of the locking assembly 211 and the entire universal adjusting support 100, reducing the cost of repairing and replacing components, and also making the operation feel more comfortable.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rotating structure 21 further comprises a first axial connecting portion 212 configured at one end of the first branch arm 20, and the second branch arm 30 is configured with a second axial connecting portion 32 oppositely arranged with the first axial connecting portion 212.
[0055] The first branch arm 20 is internally provided with a first channel 22, and the first axial connecting portion 212 is internally provided with a second channel 2121, which is in communication with the first channel 22. The abutting member 2111 is movably arranged in the first channel 22 and at least partially extends into the second channel 2121. The connecting member 2112 is arranged through the second channel 2121 and connected with the second axial connecting portion 32. The driving member 2113 is at least partially accommodated in the second channel 2121 and located between the second axial connecting portion 32 and the control member 2114. The control member 2114 is at least partially exposed outside the second channel 2121.
[0056] The rotating structure 21 correspondingly arranges the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 in space through the first axial connecting part 212 and the second axial connecting part 32, thereby providing a basic framework for the installation and cooperation of subsequent components. The first channel 22 in the first supporting arm 20 and the second channel 2121 in the first axial connecting part 212 are in communication with each other, thereby forming a through space to provide a path for the arrangement and movement of components such as the abutting member 2111, the connecting member 2112, the driving member 2113 and the control member 2114.
[0057] When it is necessary to lock the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12 and the second supporting arm 30 and the first supporting arm 20, the control member 2114 is operated. The control member 2114 drives the connecting member 2112 connected thereto to move, and the movement of the connecting member 2112 drives the driving member 2113 to act. Since the abutting member 2111 is at least partially accommodated in the second channel 2121, under the action of the driving member 2113, the abutting member 2111 is pushed to move in the first channel 22, thereby abutting against the universal connecting member 12, achieving the locking of the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12, and also making the connection between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 more stable.
[0058] When it is necessary to unlock for angle adjustment, the control member 2114 is operated in reverse. The control member 2114 drives the connecting member 2112 to move in reverse, and the driving member 2113 acts in reverse, so that the abutting member 2111 moves in reverse in the first channel 22, releasing the abutment against the universal connecting member 12, thereby achieving the unlocking of the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting member 12, and the freedom of relative rotation between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30, facilitating multi-angle adjustment.
[0059] The present embodiment fully utilizes the space inside the first supporting arm 20 and the first axial connecting part 212, and reasonably arranges the components in the channels, so that the entire rotating structure 21 is compact in layout and does not occupy too much external space, which is conducive to the miniaturization and light weight of the universal adjusting support 100 as a whole, facilitating carrying and use. Moreover, the control member 2114 is at least partially exposed outside the second channel 2121, which facilitates the user to directly operate the control member 2114 to achieve the locking and unlocking functions, the operation position is obvious, easy to find and operate, and the operation convenience of the user is improved.
[0060] In some embodiments, one end of the first axial connecting part 212 is connected with a first face gear 2122, one end of the second axial connecting part 32 is connected with a second face gear 321, and the first face gear 2122 is meshingly connected with the second face gear 321.
[0061] The first axial connecting part 212 is connected by the first face gear 2122, and the second axial connecting part 32 is connected by the second face gear 321. The meshing relationship of the two face gears further strengthens the connection between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30, so that when the two supporting arms rotate relative to each other, they can rotate smoothly and accurately through the interaction between the teeth of the gears. The photographer can accurately control the relative angle between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 according to the shooting requirements, and meet the precise requirements for the position and angle of the photography auxiliary accessory in different shooting scenes.
[0062] When the locking assembly 211 is working, the abutting part 2111 abuts against the universal connecting part 12 to lock the first supporting arm 20 and the universal connecting part 12, and the control part 2114 realizes the stable connection between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30. At this time, the meshed first face gear 2122 and second face gear 321 also play a role in auxiliary strengthening connection. The tight meshing between the gears increases the stability of the structure, prevents relative sliding or loosening between the first supporting arm 20 and the second supporting arm 30 in the locked state, and further improves the reliability of the entire structure.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the holder 31 includes a first connecting seat 311, which is located at the end of the second supporting arm 30 away from the first supporting arm 20, and the first connecting seat 311 can rotate relative to the second supporting arm 30 in the horizontal direction.
[0064] The damping adjustment assembly 40 includes a first damping adjustment module 41, which is arranged between the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30, and is used to adjust the horizontal angle of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 and the damping force of the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30.
[0065] The first connecting seat 311 can rotate freely relative to the second supporting arm 30 in the horizontal direction, providing a wide range of horizontal angle adjustment for the photography auxiliary accessory, so that the photographer can quickly and accurately adjust the horizontal direction of the photography auxiliary accessory according to different shooting scenes and creative needs, to obtain the best shooting angle, greatly improving the flexibility of shooting.
[0066] The first damping adjustment module 41 is arranged between the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30. Its working principle is to adjust the rotation resistance of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 by changing its damping characteristics. When fine adjustment of the horizontal angle of the photography auxiliary accessory is needed, the user can operate the first damping adjustment module 41 to increase or decrease the damping force to meet different shooting requirements.
[0067] When the damping force is increased, the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 becomes more difficult, so that the photographic auxiliary accessory can be more stably maintained at the position after being adjusted to the appropriate angle, avoiding the angle deviation caused by slight interference of external force; when the damping force is reduced, the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 is more flexible, facilitating the user to quickly adjust to the required horizontal angle.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the first damping adjustment module 41 includes a first adjustment piece 411, a first damping piece 412 and a second damping piece 413, the first adjustment piece 411 connects the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30, and is used for locking or unlocking the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30; the first damping piece 412 is arranged between the first adjustment piece 411 and the second supporting arm 30, the second damping piece 413 is arranged between the second supporting arm 30 and the first connecting seat 311, and the first damping piece 412 and the second damping piece 413 are arranged in relative spacing, and the first adjustment piece 411 is further used for driving the first damping piece 412 to approach or move away from the second damping piece 413.
[0069] The first adjustment piece 411 as a key component connecting the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30 plays a key role in connection and locking. When it is necessary to fix the relative position of the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30, the first adjustment piece 411 is operated to perform a locking action, firmly connecting the first connecting seat 311 and the second supporting arm 30 together to prevent relative rotation therebetween and ensure that the photographic auxiliary accessory maintains a stable angle during the shooting process. When it is necessary to adjust the horizontal angle of the photographic auxiliary accessory, the first adjustment piece 411 is unlocked by operation, so that the first connecting seat 311 can freely rotate relative to the second supporting arm 30.
[0070] The first damping piece 412 and the second damping piece 413 are arranged in relative spacing between the first adjustment piece 411, the second supporting arm 30 and the first connecting seat 311. In addition to the connection and locking functions, the first adjustment piece 411 also has the ability to drive the first damping piece 412 to approach or move away from the second damping piece 413. When the first adjustment piece 411 drives the first damping piece 412 to approach the second damping piece 413, the distance between the two damping pieces is reduced, and the damping force generated by the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 is increased, so that the rotation becomes more difficult, thereby realizing more accurate angle fine adjustment and more stable angle maintenance. Conversely, when the first adjustment piece 411 drives the first damping piece 412 to move away from the second damping piece 413, the damping force is reduced, and the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second supporting arm 30 is more flexible, facilitating quick adjustment to the required angle.
[0071] The distance between the first damping member 412 and the second damping member 413 is accurately controlled by the first adjusting member 411, so that the damping force can be finely adjusted. The photographer can accurately adjust the damping force according to different shooting scenes and requirements, so as to accurately control the horizontal rotation of the photography auxiliary accessory. Whether the angle needs to be quickly adjusted or stably maintained at a specific angle, it can be easily met.
[0072] In the embodiment, the first adjusting member 411 integrates the functions of connection, locking and driving damping adjustment, reduces the number of parts, simplifies the overall structure, so that the user can realize the connection, unlocking and damping adjustment functions at the same time through simple operation, without complex operation process and cooperative operation of multiple parts, improving the operation convenience of the user, and reducing the complexity of the gimbal 100, improving the reliability and stability, and reducing the possible failure points due to too many parts.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the gimbal 31 further includes a second connecting seat 312, the second connecting seat 312 is connected with the first connecting seat 311, and the second connecting seat 312 can make pitching motion in the vertical direction relative to the first connecting seat 311, and the second connecting seat 312 is used for installing the photography equipment;
[0074] The damping adjustment assembly 40 further includes a second damping adjustment module 42, which is arranged between the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, and is used for adjusting the pitching angle of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311 and the damping force of the rotation of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311.
[0075] In the embodiment, the gimbal 31 is composed of the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, the second connecting seat 312 is connected with the first connecting seat 311, and the second connecting seat 312 can make pitching motion in the vertical direction relative to the first connecting seat 311. The first connecting seat 311 provides support and foundation for the movement of the second connecting seat 312, the photography equipment is installed on the second connecting seat 312, and the angle adjustment of the photography equipment in the vertical direction is realized through the pitching motion of the second connecting seat 312, so as to meet the requirements of different shooting scenes on the shooting angle.
[0076] The second damping adjustment module 42 is arranged between the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, and its working principle is similar to that of the first damping adjustment module 41. The rotation resistance of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311 is adjusted by changing the damping characteristics of the second damping adjustment module 42. When the pitching angle of the photography equipment needs to be adjusted, the user operates the second damping adjustment module 42 to control the rotation of the second connecting seat 312 by adjusting the damping force, so as to meet different shooting requirements.
[0077] When the damping force is increased, the rotation of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311 becomes difficult, which helps to keep the stability of the photographic equipment after adjusting to the appropriate pitch angle, and prevents the angle from changing due to external interference; when the damping force is reduced, the second connecting seat 312 rotates more flexibly, which facilitates quick adjustment to the required pitch angle.
[0078] In combination with the rotation of the first connecting seat 311 relative to the second branch 30 in the horizontal direction and the pitch movement of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311 in the vertical direction, the gimbal 31 can realize full range angle adjustment of the photographic equipment in two dimensions of horizontal and vertical, greatly expanding the shooting angle of view and meeting the needs of various complex shooting scenes.
[0079] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the second damping adjustment module 42 includes a second adjustment piece 421, a third damping piece 422 and a fourth damping piece 423. The second adjustment piece 421 connects the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, and is used for locking or unlocking the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312. The third damping piece 422 is arranged between the second adjustment piece 421 and the second connecting seat 312, and the fourth damping piece 423 is arranged between the second connecting seat 312 and the first connecting seat 311. The third damping piece 422 and the fourth damping piece 423 are arranged in opposite directions. The second adjustment piece 421 is also used to drive the third damping piece 422 to move close to or away from the fourth damping piece 423.
[0080] The second adjustment piece 421 as the core component connecting the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312 plays a key role in connection and locking. When the photographer needs to fix the photographic equipment at a specific pitch angle, the second adjustment piece 421 is operated to perform a locking action. At this time, the second adjustment piece 421 tightly connects the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312 to form a stable whole, preventing the second connecting seat 312 from accidentally rotating relative to the first connecting seat 311 during shooting, and ensuring the stability of the angle of the photographic equipment. When the pitch angle of the photographic equipment needs to be adjusted, the second adjustment piece 421 is unlocked to allow the second connecting seat 312 to freely pitch around the first connecting seat 311 in the vertical direction.
[0081] The third damping member 422 and the fourth damping member 423 are arranged in a relative interval between the second adjusting member 421, the second connecting seat 312 and the first connecting seat 311. In addition to the connection and locking functions, the second adjusting member 421 also has the ability to drive the third damping member 422 to be close to or away from the fourth damping member 423. When it is needed to increase the damping force of the second connecting seat 312 relative to the first connecting seat 311, the second adjusting member 421 is operated to drive the third damping member 422 to be close to the fourth damping member 423. As the distance between the two decreases, the resistance to the rotation of the second connecting seat 312 increases, thereby achieving more accurate fine adjustment of the pitch angle, and after adjusting to the appropriate angle, the angle can be better maintained to effectively resist external interference. Conversely, when it is needed to more flexibly adjust the pitch angle, the second adjusting member 421 is operated to drive the third damping member 422 to be away from the fourth damping member 423, at which time the damping force decreases and the second connecting seat 312 can more easily perform the pitch movement.
[0082] Through the precise control of the second adjusting member 421 on the distance between the third damping member 422 and the fourth damping member 423, fine adjustment of the damping force of the second connecting seat 312 can be achieved, and the photographer can accurately adjust the damping force according to different shooting needs, such as quickly adjusting the angle when shooting dynamic pictures, or stably maintaining the angle when shooting static pictures, thereby achieving precise control of the pitch angle of the photography equipment, meeting the requirements of various complex shooting scenes, and improving the quality and professionalism of the shooting works.
[0083] In the embodiment, the second adjusting member 421 integrates the connection, locking and damping adjustment functions, greatly simplifying the structure of the gimbal 31 and reducing the number of components, so that the user can simultaneously realize the connection, unlocking and damping adjustment functions through simple operation, without complex operation procedures and collaborative operation of multiple components, thereby improving the operation convenience of the user, reducing the complexity of the structure, making the gimbal 31 more compact and lightweight, facilitating carrying and installation, and improving the overall reliability and stability, and reducing the risk of possible failures due to too many components.
[0084] In some embodiments, the second damping adjustment module 42 further comprises a damping rotating shaft 424, which connects the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312.
[0085] In the embodiment, the damping rotating shaft 424 connects the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, so that the second connecting seat 312 can perform the pitch movement in the vertical direction relative to the first connecting seat 311 around the damping rotating shaft 424, thereby providing a clear rotating axis for the movement of the second connecting seat 312 and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the movement.
[0086] Compared with the connection through the second adjusting member 421 only, the addition of the damping rotating shaft 424 enhances the stability of the connection between the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 312, so that the weight of the second connecting seat 312 and the photographic auxiliary accessory mounted thereon can be better borne, the stress generated by the weight is dispersed, the possibility of loosening or damage of the connection part due to long-term use or large load is reduced, and the reliability and durability of the overall structure of the holder 31 are improved.
[0087] It should be noted that the first damping member 412, the second damping member 413, the third damping member 422 and the fourth damping member 423 can adopt the cooperation between a nylon gasket and a copper gasket, or the cooperation between an elastic gasket and a friction gasket, etc., to realize corresponding damping adjustment, which can be selected and arranged according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited herein.
