Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shooting devices, and in particular to a rotatable shooting aid. Background Technology

[0002] With the ever-improving camera capabilities of mobile phones, people no longer rely on professional cameras to capture high-quality images and record high-quality videos. However, when using mobile phones for shooting, issues such as accidental drops, shaking, and uncomfortable handling can easily arise. Based on these market demands, shooting aids have become a valuable auxiliary tool for people to use when shooting.

[0003] A camera assist device allows users to attach shooting equipment and hold it for convenient photography. Typically, camera assist devices are clip-on types, fixed to the back of the phone. However, because they can only be fixed in one position, they limit the shooting angle to a fixed point, making them inconvenient to use. Therefore, a camera assist device that can rotate at multiple angles is essential. Utility Model Content

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 This embodiment discloses a rotatable shooting aid 100, which is installed on the back of a mobile phone to assist the mobile phone in taking pictures.

[0024] The shooting aid 100 includes a locking part 10, a handle part 30, and an adjustment part 40. The locking part 10 is generally directly mounted on the back of the housing 200 or the back of the electronic device. Alternatively, the locking part 10 can be a separate component, fixedly attached to the back of the housing 200 or the back of the electronic device. The handle part 30 is rotatably connected to the locking part 10 via the adjustment part 40, thereby adjusting the position of the handle part 30 on the back of the housing 200 or the back of the electronic device, making it more convenient and stable for the user to hold the handle part 30.

[0025] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The engaging portion 10 is generally circular and is a concave structure. The engaging portion 10 includes a bottom 12 and side walls 14 arranged around the bottom 12. The bottom 12 and the side walls 14 together form a receiving space 101. A boss 15 is provided at the center of the bottom 12.

[0026] Two first limiting walls 17 are formed on the side wall 14 protruding towards the center of the engaging part 10. The first limiting walls 17 and the bottom 12 are spaced apart and have grooves 171. The first limiting walls 17 cover the grooves 171. The grooves 171 are connected to the two positioning grooves 11 and the receiving space 101.

[0027] The two first limiting walls 17 are arranged at a distance from each other, thus forming two positioning grooves 11 between the two first limiting walls 17, and the positioning grooves 11 are connected to the receiving space 101.

[0028] There can be two positioning grooves 11, and the two positioning grooves 11 are disposed opposite to each other at both ends of the engaging part 10. Two first limiting walls 17 are separated by the two positioning grooves 11 and are disposed at the top of the engaging part 10.

[0029] The boss 15 has a gear-shaped structure, and a portion of the edge of the boss 15 is recessed to form multiple engaging recesses 153. Multiple slots 151 are formed through the boss 15. The multiple slots 151 communicate with the outside of the receiving space 101 and the engaging portion 10.

[0030] Please see Figure 2 The handle portion 30 includes a hand-held portion 301.

[0031] The handle portion 30 protrudes from the side near the engaging portion 10 to form a positioning protrusion 31. The positioning protrusion 31 has an L-shaped cross-section and includes a limiting block 313 extending vertically from the bottom surface of the handle portion 30 and a second limiting wall 311 extending from one end of the limiting block 313 toward the direction away from the central axis of the engaging portion 10 (i.e., toward the edge of the handgrip portion 301). The height of the second limiting wall 311 is significantly smaller than that of the limiting block 313, thus the second limiting wall 311 and the limiting block 313 are stepped. The side of the handle portion 30 away from the engaging portion 10 is streamlined, and the streamlined handle portion 30 is convenient for the user's hand to grip. The two positioning protrusions 31 are roughly arc-shaped. The two positioning protrusions 31 are engaged in the two positioning grooves 11. When the handle 30 rotates relative to the engaging part 10, the two positioning protrusions 31 slide from the two positioning grooves 11 into the slide groove 171. At this time, the second limiting wall 311 contacts the first limiting wall 17, and the second limiting wall 311 is located between the first limiting wall 17 and the bottom 12, that is, within the slide groove 171. Thus, the second limiting wall 311 of the two positioning protrusions 31 can slide within the slide groove 171.

[0032] The adjusting part 40 is clamped between the handle part 30 and the engaging part 10. The adjusting part 40 includes a fixing member 50 and a rotating member 70.

[0033] The shape of the rotating member 70 matches the recess of the engaging portion 10, and the rotating member 70 is received within the receiving space 101, so that the rotating member 70 can engage with the engaging portion 10. The rotating member 70 has a disc structure, which includes a main body 72 and two pushing portions 74 protruding from the edge of the main body 72.

[0034] Two grooves 71 are formed between the two push parts 74, and the number of grooves 71 corresponds to the number of positioning grooves 11.

[0035] When the rotating member 70 is installed in the receiving space 101, the outer wall of the pushing part 74 of the rotating member 70 contacts the first limiting wall 17 of the engaging part 10, and the groove 71 is aligned with and connected to the positioning groove 11. Thus, when the positioning protrusion 31 is engaged in the positioning groove 11, a part of the positioning protrusion 31 enters the positioning groove 11, and the other part contacts the pushing part 74. Then, when the rotating member 70 rotates relative to the engaging part 10, the limiting block 313 pushes the pushing part 74 to rotate relative to the engaging part 10 to adjust the angle of the handle part 30 relative to the engaging part 10.

[0036] Specifically, the limiting block 313 abuts against the two side walls of the groove 71, and the second limiting wall 311 is housed within the positioning groove 11. When the user rotates the handle 30, the limiting block 313 causes the rotating member 70 to rotate relative to the engaging part 10, and the second limiting wall 311 slides within the sliding groove 171. After rotation, the positioning groove 11 and the groove 71 are offset. The second limiting wall 311 abuts against the first limiting wall 17, thereby the first limiting wall 17 provides upper and lower limiting for the second limiting wall 311.

[0037] The main body 72 of the rotating component 70 is provided with multiple elastic arms 73. The multiple elastic arms 73 are formed by openings through the main body 72, thereby enabling elastic deformation and movement relative to the main body 72. The multiple elastic arms 73 are connected in sequence to form an enclosing through hole 77. The middle part of each elastic arm 73 is slightly curved towards the center of the through hole 77, and the middle part of each elastic arm 73 protrudes to form an engaging protrusion 731.

[0038] The boss 15 of the engaging part 10 is located inside the through hole 77, and the engaging protrusion 731 engages with the engaging recess 153 of the boss 15. When the handle part 30 rotates relative to the engaging part 10, the engaging protrusion 731 is driven by the hand grip 301, and the engaging protrusion 731 pushes against the inner wall of the engaging recess 153, causing the engaging recess 153 to elastically deform. The engaging protrusion 731 slides out of the engaging recess 153 and engages with the next engaging recess 153, thereby enabling adjustment of the angle between the handle part 30 and the engaging part 10.

[0039] The number of engaging protrusions 731 can be four, located in the four directions of up, down, left, and right of the rotating member 70, with an included angle of 90° between adjacent engaging protrusions 731. The number of engaging recesses 153 can be eight, with an included angle of 45° between adjacent engaging recesses 153. Through the 45-degree engaging recesses 153, the handle part 30 can rotate 360° relative to the engaging part 10, and can stop after each 45° rotation by the engaging structure of the engaging protrusions 731 and engaging recesses 153. It can be understood that the number of engaging recesses 153 can be other than that, and the included angle between adjacent engaging recesses 153 is 360° divided by the number of engaging recesses 153. It is understood that the number of engaging protrusions 731 can be other than the number of engaging recesses 153, and the number of engaging protrusions 731 is a multiple of the number of engaging protrusions 731, so that the included angle between two adjacent engaging protrusions 731 is a multiple of the included angle between two adjacent engaging recesses 153.

[0040] Each elastic arm 73 is spaced apart from the edge of the rotating member to form an elastic space 75. When the rotating member 70 rotates, the engaging protrusion 731 can be disengaged from the engaging recess 153, in which case the engaging protrusion 731 drives the elastic arm 73 to move towards the elastic space 75. Alternatively, the engaging protrusion 731 can be inserted into the engaging recess 153, in which case the elastic restoring force of the elastic arm 73 drives the engaging protrusion 731 into the engaging recess 153. Figure 5 As shown, this illustrates the state of the rotating component 70 before and after rotating 45°.

[0041] The fixing member 50 is mounted on the main body 72 of the rotating member 70, and the top surface of the fixing member 50 is flush with the top surface of the pushing part 74. Multiple latches 51, which are claw-shaped, are formed on the side of the fixing member 50 near the engaging part 10. The boss 15 is located in the through hole 77 of the rotating member 70 and is flush with the top surface of the elastic arm 73 of the rotating member 70. The latches 51 of the fixing member 50 can be inserted into the slots 151, thereby allowing the fixing member 50 to be detachably mounted on the engaging part 10. The fixing member 50 also limits the rotating member 70 between the fixing member 50 and the engaging part 10, allowing the rotating member 70 to rotate relative to the fixing member 50 and the engaging part 10 to adjust the angle of the handle part 30 relative to the housing 200. The fixing member 50 covers the edge of the rotating member 70 and limits its movement, thus allowing the rotating member 70 to be mounted on the engaging part. In use, the engaging part 10, the rotating part 70 and the fixing part 50 form a single component. The user inserts the handle part 30 into this component, so that the handle part 30 can rotate relative to the engaging part 10.

[0042] The handle portion 30 is also provided with magnetic suction members 33. There can be two magnetic suction members 33, which are parallel to the two adjacent sides of the handle portion 30. The housing 200 is also provided with two corresponding magnetic suction members 33, which are at a 45° angle to the two adjacent sides of the handle portion 30. The magnetic suction members 33 of the handle portion 30 can be attracted to the magnetic suction members 33 of the housing 200, so that the handle portion 30 can be initially positioned with the housing 200 by magnetic attraction. During initial positioning, the handle portion 30 is in the initial position and at a 45° angle to the housing 200. The initial position can be the position where the positioning protrusion 31 is just inserted into the positioning groove 11 and the recess 71. When in the initial position, the first limiting wall 17 and the positioning protrusion 31 are not in contact, and the handle portion 30 can easily fall off the engaging portion 10. Under normal circumstances, when the handle portion 30 is parallel to or perpendicular to the housing 200, the user can perform horizontal or vertical shooting. In both shooting modes, the second limiting wall 311 is located within the slide groove 171, and the handle portion 30 will not detach from the engaging portion 10. It is understood that in the initial position, the handle portion 30 may also form other angles with the housing 200.

[0043] Preferably, a control circuit board is provided within the photo-taking aid 100. The control circuit board can be located within the handle portion 30. A signal transmission unit is coupled to the control circuit board, allowing signal transmission between the control circuit board and the mobile phone. For example, the control circuit board can send control information to the mobile phone, such as controlling the mobile phone to take a photo or controlling the start and stop of video recording, or other operations. It should be added that a storage module is provided within the photo-taking aid 100, coupled to the control circuit board. The storage module can send data information to the control circuit board, which then transmits the data information to the mobile phone via the signal transmission unit, allowing the mobile phone to read the data information from the storage module. Similarly, the mobile phone can also send data information to the control circuit board via the signal transmission unit, and the control circuit board can send the data information to the storage module, allowing the storage module to store the data information. Specifically, photos or videos from the mobile phone can be saved in the storage module using the above transmission method, and the mobile phone can also read the photos or videos.

[0044] The engagement part 10 of the shooting aid 100 is provided with a sliding groove 171, and the handle part 30 is provided with a positioning protrusion 31. The positioning protrusion 31 slides in the sliding groove 171, so that the handle part 30 can rotate relative to the engagement part 10. The multiple engagement recesses 153 of the engagement part 10 and the multiple engagement protrusions 731 of the rotating member 70 can cooperate. After rotating a certain angle, the engagement protrusions 731 can engage in different engagement recesses 153, so that the shooting aid 100 can shoot from multiple angles.

[0045] The technical solution of this utility model has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the protection scope of this utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
