Detailed Implementation

[0052] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0053] With the gradual development of new media, users' need to take photos or videos to record their lives is becoming increasingly common. However, in some usage scenarios, such as cycling or running, where handheld shooting is inconvenient, users often need to use a hanging bracket to suspend their camera, mobile phone, or other image-capturing devices around their neck or on their clothing to facilitate shooting. However, this method often suffers from difficulties in adjusting the shooting angle, failing to meet the shooting needs of different user groups in different usage scenarios. For example, the technology struggles to easily achieve upward-angle shooting while cycling, or to adjust the shooting angle specifically for people with large pectoral muscles.

[0054] In related technologies, since the angle of the suspension bracket is not adjustable, external angle shims are usually used to compensate for the angle or external accessories with adjustable angles are added in order to adjust the shooting angle. The assembly process is relatively cumbersome, the overall size is large, the portability is low, and the external accessories are easy to lose, which affects the user experience.

[0055] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this disclosure provides an external accessory for an adjustment component, a suspension bracket, and an image capture device. The adjustment component includes a first connecting part, a second connecting part, and an adjustment locking kit. The second connecting part is connected to the first connecting part, and the adjustment locking kit is connected to both the first and second connecting parts. The adjustment locking kit includes a locking member with a self-locking state. In the self-locking state, the included angle between the first and second connecting parts is fixed at a preset angle. This disclosure provides a first and second connecting part that rotate relative to each other in the adjustment component. The self-locking state of the locking member fixes the included angle between the first and second connecting parts at a preset angle, facilitating control of the rotation angle between the first and second connecting parts. This allows the user to conveniently adjust and fix the angle using the adjustment component.

[0056] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an adjustment component 100, which includes a first connecting part 110, a second connecting part 120, and an adjustment locking kit 130. The second connecting part 120 is rotatably connected to the first connecting part 110. The included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is adjustable, and the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 can be fixed at a preset angle by the adjustment locking kit 130.

[0057] The adjusting locking kit 130 is connected to the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 respectively. The adjusting locking kit 130 includes a locking member 131, which has a self-locking state. In the self-locking state, the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is fixed at a preset angle.

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 can be adjusted between 0° and 210°. Figure 1The left-middle figure shows that the angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is 0°; the middle figure shows that the angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is less than 180°, which allows for a downward angle; the right figure shows that the angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is greater than 180°, which allows for a vertical angle. The angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 in this embodiment can be adjusted as needed to better meet different user requirements.

[0059] In this embodiment, the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is adjustable, and the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 can be fixed at a preset angle by the self-locking of the locking member 131. This facilitates the adjustment and fixing of the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120, simplifies the angle fixing operation, and improves the user experience.

[0060] In some embodiments, the locking element 131 also has an unlocked state.

[0061] In one example, locking member 131 is a one-way transmission member. One of the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 is connected to the one-way transmission member. Locking member 131 has an unlocked state, in which the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 are rotatably connected. When locking member 131 is in the unlocked state, the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 are rotatably connected to adjust the included angle between them. When locking member 131 is in the self-locking state, it fixes the included angle between the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 at a preset angle. Therefore, by unlocking and self-locking locking member 131, the angle of the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 can be flexibly adjusted and fixed, simplifying angle adjustment operations and improving the user experience.

[0062] In some embodiments, the adjustment locking kit 130 also has a rotation reset function. For example... Figure 2As shown, the adjustment locking kit 130 also includes a reset member 132 and a pressing member 133. The reset member 132 is disposed on the first connecting part 110 or the second connecting part 120. One end of the reset member 132 is connected to the one-way transmission member, and one end of the pressing member 133 is connected to the one-way transmission member. When the pressing member 133 is released, the reset member 132 is in a first state, the one-way transmission member is in a self-locking state, and the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is fixed at a preset angle. When the pressing member 133 is pressed, the reset member 132 changes from the first state to the second state. The pressing member 133 drives the one-way transmission member to separate from the first connecting part 110 or the second connecting part 120, so that the one-way transmission member is in an unlocked state. In the unlocked state, the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 are rotatably connected to adjust the rotation angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120.

[0063] In some embodiments, the adjusting locking kit 130 further includes a lever 134. For example... Figures 8-9 As shown, the pressure rod 134 is connected to the connector 226 via the pressure rod spring 135. The connector 226 is fixedly connected to the second connecting part 120. The one-way transmission member (i.e., the locking member 131) is provided with an unlocking track 1311 and a locking track 1312 extending along its circumference. The first end 13111 of the unlocking track 1311 and the locking track 1312 are connected. One end of the pressure rod 134 is fixedly connected to the first connecting part 110 or the second connecting part 120, and the other end of the pressure rod 134 abuts against the one-way transmission member.

[0064] When the pressing member 133 is pressed, the pressing rod 134 moves along the unlocking track 1311 under the action of external force, causing the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 to rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the angle of the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120.

[0065] When the pressing member 133 is released, or when the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 rotate relative to each other to the maximum angle, the pressing rod 134 slides through the first end 13111 to the locking track 1312. There is a height difference between the unlocking track 1311 and the locking track 1312. The height of the locking track 1312 is lower than the first end 13111 of the unlocking track 1311. Therefore, after the pressing rod 134 slides through the first end 13111 to the locking track 1312, it cannot rotate back to the unlocking track 1311. The one-way transmission member is in a self-locking state, and the angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is fixed.

[0066] In some embodiments, the one-way transmission element (i.e., locking element 131) includes a ratchet. For example... Figures 2-6As shown, the first connecting part 110 includes a first mating part 111, and the second connecting part 120 includes a second mating part 121. One of the first mating part 111 and the second mating part 121 is fixedly connected to the ratchet gear, and the other of the two is rotatably connected to the ratchet gear, so that the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 are rotatably connected by the ratchet gear.

[0067] The ratchet gear has unidirectional ratchet teeth 1314, which enable rotational gear feedback and unlocking self-locking. The minimum rotational gear between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is related to the size and number of teeth of the ratchet gear. In one example, the rotational gear between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 can be 10° increments. Of course, it is understood that those skilled in the art can set the ratchet gear according to actual needs so that the rotational gear meets the required angle size, such as 5°, 15°, 20°, 30°, etc., which can all be achieved by adjusting the relevant parameters of the ratchet gear. This embodiment does not impose too many restrictions on the relevant parameters of the ratchet gear.

[0068] In one example, the ratchet (i.e., locking member 131) is provided with an anti-rotation rib 1313. The anti-rotation rib 1313 is used to cooperate with the first mating part 111 to achieve a fixed connection between the ratchet and the first mating part 111, preventing the ratchet from loosening and improving the reliability of the connection between the ratchet and the first mating part 111, thereby ensuring that the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 rotate relative to each other when the ratchet rotates. Of course, it is understood that this embodiment of the present disclosure uses the cooperation of the anti-rotation rib 1313 with the first mating part 111 as an example for explanation. Those skilled in the art can also set the anti-rotation rib 1313 to cooperate with the second mating part 121 according to actual needs. This embodiment of the present disclosure does not impose too many limitations on this.

[0069] In some embodiments, the number of the first connecting part 110, the second connecting part 120, the locking member 131, the reset member 132, the pressing member 133, and the pressing rod 134 are all two, that is, the adjustment assembly 100 is connected at both ends, so as to improve the structural stability and reliability of the adjustment assembly 100.

[0070] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 1-9As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a suspension bracket 200, which includes a first housing 210, a second housing 220, and an adjustment and locking assembly 130. The first housing 210 includes a first connecting portion 110, and the second housing 220 includes a second connecting portion 120, which is connected to the first connecting portion 110. That is, the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 of the suspension bracket 200 can be connected by the adjustment assembly 100 in the above embodiment to achieve angle adjustment and fixation between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220.

[0071] The adjustment locking kit 130 is connected to the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 respectively. The adjustment locking kit 130 includes a locking member 131, which is disposed between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220. The locking member 131 is used to fix the included angle between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 at a preset angle.

[0072] In some embodiments, the locking member 131 has a self-locking state and an unlocking state.

[0073] When the locking member 131 is in the self-locking state, the locking member 131 fixes the included angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 at a preset angle, so that the included angle between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 is fixed at the preset angle, thereby achieving angle fixation of the suspension bracket 200.

[0074] In the unlocked state, the angle between the first connecting part 110 and the second connecting part 120 is adjustable, allowing the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 to be rotatably connected. This facilitates user adjustment of the angle between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 as needed. Through the self-locking and unlocking of the locking member 131, angle adjustment and fixation between the first housing 210 and the second housing 220 can be achieved, simplifying the angle adjustment operation of the suspension bracket 200, improving the user's operating experience, and adapting to diverse user needs.

[0075] In some embodiments, the suspension bracket 200 is magnetically connected to the image capture device 400. For example... Figures 1-3 As shown, the second housing 220 is provided with a magnetic member 221, which is used for magnetic connection with the image capture device 400. The second housing 220 is provided with a mounting groove 222 for accommodating the magnetic member 221.

[0076] In some embodiments, the second housing 220 is provided with a first decorative element 223, which may be made of resin, rubber, plastic or other materials. The first decorative element 223 is used to cover the magnetic element 221 and the mounting groove 222. The first housing 210 may also be provided with a second decorative element 225. Both the first decorative element 223 and the second decorative element 225 may be surface treated by printing, frosting or other methods to improve the appearance of the hanging bracket 200.

[0077] In some embodiments, the number of mounting slots 222 may be one or more. Each mounting slot 222 is provided with at least one magnetic element 221 to ensure the stability and reliability of the magnetic connection between the suspension bracket 200 and the image capture device 400.

[0078] In one example, there is one mounting slot 222 and one magnetic attachment 221. The mounting slot 222 can cover most of the area of ​​the second housing 220 to ensure the reliability of the magnetic connection between the suspension bracket 200 and the image capture device 400 and reduce the risk of falling.

[0079] In another example, the number of magnetic attachments 221 is four. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the shape of the mounting slot 222 is adapted to the shape of the magnetic member 221, which is rectangular. The number of mounting slots 222 can be one, with four interconnected rectangles; alternatively, there can be four mounting slots 222, all rectangular in shape. The four magnetic members 221 can enclose a rectangle, meaning the sides of the four magnetic members 221 closest to the other magnetic members 221 form the four sides of the rectangle; alternatively, the four magnetic members 221 can surround a rectangle, meaning they are positioned at the four corners of the rectangle. It is understood that the number of mounting slots 222 and magnetic members 221 is not limited to the arrangements listed in the embodiments of this disclosure, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0080] It is worth noting that the number, shape, and position of the mounting slots 222 and magnetic components 221 can be adjusted according to the distribution of the metal or magnetic structures on the image capture device 400 to be connected to the suspension bracket 200. This embodiment does not impose too many restrictions on this, and those skilled in the art can make the settings according to actual needs.

[0081] In some embodiments, the portion of the second housing 220 other than the mounting groove 222 may also be provided with support ribs 224. The support ribs 224 are used to improve the structural strength of the second housing 220. At the same time, providing support ribs 224 can also reduce the weight of the second housing 220 compared to a solid structure, thereby reducing the weight of the suspension bracket 200 and improving the portability of the suspension bracket 200.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first housing 210 is connected to a rope assembly 300. One end of the rope assembly 300 is fixedly connected to the first housing 210, and the other end of the rope assembly 300 can form a rope loop (not shown in the figure) to facilitate suspending the suspension bracket 200 around the user's neck or suspending it in other positions via hooks or other components. The connection between the rope assembly 300 and the first housing 210 can be achieved through snap-fitting, adhesive bonding, or other methods. This disclosure does not impose excessive limitations on these methods, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0083] In some embodiments, the length of the rope assembly 300 is adjustable. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the rope assembly 300 is provided with an adjustment member 310, which allows the user to adjust the length of the rope assembly 300 to suit the user's needs in different scenarios.

[0084] In one example, the rope assembly 300 includes a first rope 320 and a second rope 330, and the adjusting member 310 includes a first adjusting buckle 311 and a second adjusting buckle 312. Figure 9 As shown, the first adjusting buckle 311 and the second adjusting buckle 312 are arranged side by side. One end of the first rope 320 is fixed to the first adjusting buckle 311, and the other end of the first rope 320 passes through the first adjusting buckle 311 and then exits through the second adjusting buckle 312. One end of the second rope 330 is fixed to the second adjusting buckle 312, and the other end of the second rope 330 passes through the second adjusting buckle 312 and then exits through the first adjusting buckle 311. The length of the first rope 320 and / or the second rope 330 that extends through the buckle is adjustable. Adjusting the length of the first rope 320 and / or the second rope 330 allows for adjustment of the... Figure 2 The overall length of the rope assembly 300 shown.

[0085] In one example, the adjusting member 310 also includes a metal fastener 313 and a third decorative member 314. The metal fastener 313 can be magnetically fixed to the magnetic member 221 so that it can be magnetically fixed and stored after the rope assembly 300 is wound around it. The third decorative member 314 is used to cover the metal fastener 313. The third decorative member 314 can be made of resin, rubber, plastic or other materials, and can be surface treated by printing, frosting or other methods to improve its appearance.

[0086] The metal fastener 313 and the third decorative element 314 can be provided on either the first adjusting buckle 311 or the second adjusting buckle 312, or the metal fastener 313 and the third decorative element 314 can be provided on both the first adjusting buckle 311 and the second adjusting buckle 312.
