[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photography, and in particular to a photographic gimbal. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, camera tripods typically use a ball joint or a hinge to connect the camera equipment, allowing for angle adjustment. However, ball joints suffer from inconvenient pitch adjustment, while hinges struggle to achieve multi-dimensional adjustment. Therefore, current camera tripods still have shortcomings in terms of angle adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The camera gimbal according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: when the connecting ball head moves within the rotating base, it can drive the connecting structure to rotate relative to the mounting base to any direction on the spherical surface, thereby providing a variety of orientation angle options for the camera equipment mounted on the connecting structure. Specifically, when pitch angle adjustment is required, the pitch angle can be further adjusted by driving the rotating base relative to the mounting base. Thus, the camera equipment can perform full and comprehensive angle adjustment, thereby facilitating shooting operations.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a damping disk is provided between the rotating seat and the mounting seat, and the damping disk is used to prevent the rotating seat from rotating relative to the mounting seat.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connecting part is disposed on the rotating seat and is integral with the rotating seat, and the damping disc is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting part and can impede the rotational movement of the connecting part.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the second locking structure includes a second knob and a pusher disposed on the rotating seat. The second knob is connected to the pusher and can drive it to move to press against the connecting ball head. The second knob can drive the pusher to move away from the connecting ball head.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the second knob is connected to a second screw, the second knob can rotate only relative to the rotating seat, the pusher can slide only relative to the rotating seat, and the second screw is threadedly connected to the pusher.

[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting base is rotatably connected to a base, and a third locking structure is provided between the base and the mounting base. The third locking structure is used to fix the base and the mounting base relative to each other or to release the relative fixation between them.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the third locking structure includes a third knob, a third screw, and a clamping member. The third knob is rotatably mounted on the mounting base, and the base is provided with a force-bearing part. The third knob is connected to the clamping member through the third screw and can drive it to move closer to or away from the force-bearing part.

[0027] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0028] Reference Figure 1A photographic gimbal includes: a mounting base 100, a rotating base 500, a connecting ball joint 600, a first locking structure 200, and a second locking structure 300. The rotating base 500 is movably disposed on the mounting base 100 and is rotatable relative to the mounting base 100. The connecting ball joint 600 is movably disposed on the rotating base 500 and is connected to a connecting structure 800 for mounting photographic equipment. When the rotating base 500 rotates, it can drive the connecting ball joint 600 to pitch relative to the mounting base 100. The first locking structure 200 is disposed between the mounting base 100 and the rotating base 500 and is used to fix or release the relative fixation between the mounting base 100 and the rotating base 500. The second locking structure 300 is disposed between the rotating base 500 and the connecting ball joint 600 and is used to fix or release the relative fixation between the rotating base 500 and the connecting ball joint 600. When the connecting ball joint 600 moves within the rotating base 500, it can rotate the connecting structure 800 relative to the mounting base 100 to any direction on the spherical surface, thus providing various orientation angle options for the photographic equipment mounted on the connecting structure 800. When pitch angle adjustment is required, the rotating base 500 can be further rotated relative to the mounting base 100 to achieve the pitch angle adjustment effect. Therefore, the photographic equipment can be fully and comprehensively adjusted in angle, facilitating shooting operations. The first locking structure 200 and the second locking structure 300 can lock and unlock the rotating base 500 and the connecting ball joint 600, respectively. Therefore, the spherical movement and pitch rotation of the photographic equipment can be performed and fixed separately, ensuring that the photographic equipment can be promptly fixed after one of the pitch angle or spherical orientation angle is adjusted, making the adjustment of the other angle more convenient.

[0029] Specifically, the rotating seat of the rotating seat 500 is parallel to the width direction of the mounting seat 100, and the connecting structure 800 is located above the rotating seat 500.

[0030] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The first locking structure 200 includes a first knob 210 and a connecting portion 550 that are threadedly connected to each other. One of the first knob 210 and the connecting portion 550 is disposed on the mounting base 100, and the other of the first knob 210 and the connecting portion 550 is disposed on the rotating base 500. When the first knob 210 is rotated, it can drive the rotating base 500 to press against the mounting base 100. After the first knob 210 is rotated, it will drive the rotating base 500 to slide relative to the mounting base 100 under the effect of the helical connection with the connecting portion 550, and finally make the rotating base 500 press against the mounting base 100, so as to achieve the effect of fixing the rotating base 500.

[0031] Specifically, the first knob 210 is connected to a first screw 220, the first screw 220 and the first knob 210 are fixed to each other, and the first screw 220 is threadedly connected to the connecting part 550. The first knob 210 is disposed on the mounting base 100 and can only rotate relative to the mounting base 100; the connecting part 550 is disposed on the rotating base 500 and can drive the rotating base 500 to slide.

[0032] It is foreseeable that the first locking structure 200 can also be composed of other components, such as clamping or releasing the rotating seat 500 and the mounting seat 100 directly through a clamp. Therefore, the specific implementation of the first locking structure 200 is not unique, but can be adjusted according to the actual situation, and no limitation is made here.

[0033] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 A damping disk 400 is provided between the rotating seat 500 and the mounting seat 100. The damping disk 400 is used to prevent the rotating seat 500 from rotating relative to the mounting seat 100. The damping disk 400 can apply a reverse force to the rotational motion of the rotating seat 500, so that the rotating seat 500 can be supported by the damping disk 400 after it is fixed, thereby improving the stability of the rotating seat 500 in maintaining its orientation angle.

[0034] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 The connecting part 550 is disposed on the rotating seat 500 and is integral with the rotating seat 500. The damping disc 400 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting part 550 and can impede the rotational movement of the connecting part 550. The configuration of the connecting part 550 being integral with the rotating seat 500 and the damping disc 400 being sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting part 550 allows for more convenient positioning and installation between the damping disc 400 and the rotating seat 500, thereby ensuring that the damping disc 400 can smoothly apply a counterforce to the rotation of the rotating seat 500.

[0035] Furthermore, the damping disc 400 is disposed between the mounting base 100 and the rotating base 500.

[0036] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4The second locking structure 300 includes a second knob 310 and a pusher 330 disposed on the rotating base 500. The second knob 310 is connected to the pusher 330 and can move it to press against the connecting ball head 600. The second knob 310 can also move the pusher 330 away from the connecting ball head 600. After the second knob 310 in the rotating base 500 is rotated, it can move the pusher 330 to press against the connecting ball head 600, thereby directly and effectively fixing the connecting ball head 600 and the rotating base 500. When it is necessary to unlock the connecting ball head 600, the second knob 310 can be driven to move in the opposite direction, causing the pusher 330 to move away from the connecting ball head 600, thus successfully achieving the purpose of loosening and unlocking the connecting ball head 600.

[0037] It is foreseeable that the second locking structure 300 can also be composed of other components, such as clamping or releasing the rotating seat 500 and the connecting ball head 600 directly through a clamp. Therefore, the specific implementation of the first locking structure 200 is not unique, but can be adjusted according to the actual situation, and is not limited here.

[0038] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 A loading seat 340 is provided inside the rotating seat 500, and the connecting ball head 600 is movably installed inside the loading seat 340. A passageway is provided on the side of the loading seat 340, and the pushing member 330 is movably installed in the passageway. The loading seat 340 can install and support the connecting ball head 600, thereby ensuring that the connecting ball head 600 can stably perform spherical movement within the rotating seat 500. Furthermore, the loading seat 340 can also perform relative positioning between the pushing member 330 and the connecting ball head 600 through the passageway, thereby ensuring that the pushing member 330 can smoothly push and fix the connecting ball head 600.

[0039] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The second knob 310 is connected to the second screw 320. The second knob 310 can rotate only relative to the rotating seat 500, and the pusher 330 can slide only relative to the rotating seat 500. The second screw 320 is threadedly connected to the pusher 330. When the second screw 320 and the pusher move relative to each other, they will undergo a helical motion. By restricting the movement of the second knob 310 and the pusher 330, the helical motion can be smoothly decomposed, thereby ensuring that the pusher 330 can smoothly push the connecting ball head 600.

[0040] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3The mounting base 100 is rotatably connected to the base 900. A third locking structure 700 is provided between the base 900 and the mounting base 100. The third locking structure 700 is used to fix or release the relative fixation between the base 900 and the mounting base 100. The mounting base 100 can be further adjusted in orientation relative to the base 900, so that the photographic equipment connected to the connecting structure 800 can be adjusted in orientation more fully and comprehensively. Under the action of the third locking structure 700, the orientation angle is fixed so that the photographic equipment can carry out shooting operations smoothly.

[0041] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 The third locking structure 700 includes a third knob 710, a third screw 720, and a clamping member 730. The third knob 710 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 100, and the base 900 is provided with a force-bearing part 740. The third knob 710 is connected to the clamping member 730 via the third screw 720 and can move it closer to or away from the force-bearing part 740. After the third knob 710 is rotated, it will drive the clamping member 730 to move closer to the force-bearing part 740 via the third screw 720. After the clamping member 730 moves closer to and presses against the force-bearing part 740, the mounting base 100 and the base 900 will be in a relatively compressed state, thereby successfully achieving the effect of fixing the mounting base 100 and the base 900 together.

[0042] It is conceivable that the third locking structure 700 can also be composed of other components, such as clamping or releasing the base 900 and the mounting base 100 directly through a jig. Therefore, the specific implementation of the third locking structure 700 is not unique, but can be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation, and is not limited here.

[0043] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The rotation axis of the rotating base 500 is not parallel to the rotation axis of the base 900. The non-parallel rotation axes allow the mounting base 100 to be adjusted in different dimensional directions when it rotates relative to the rotating base 500 and the base 900, thereby effectively expanding the range of angle adjustment to facilitate shooting operations by photographic equipment.

[0044] Specifically, the rotation axis of the rotating seat 500 is in the front-back / left-right direction of the mounting seat 100, and the rotation axis of the base 900 is in the up-down direction of the mounting seat 100.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
