Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gimbal technology, and in particular to a compatible multi-functional gimbal. Background Technology
[0002] Early drone gimbals were primarily used for military reconnaissance, employing a fixed structure and capable of supporting only a single device. As their civilian applications expanded, gimbals needed to be compatible with more devices and required improved stability, leading to the development of three-axis brushless motor gimbals and quick-release interface technology.
[0003] Some existing gimbals have pitch axis dead zones: traditional gimbals have a pitch angle range of only ±30°, making it impossible to shoot vertically downwards, and the gimbal cannot be disassembled, making it difficult to replace the lens or other internal components.
[0004] Based on the above problems, a compatible multi-functional gimbal is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, the present invention addresses the lack of a needle, and its main purpose is to provide a compatible multi-functional gimbal, which aims to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a compatible multi-functional gimbal, comprising an upper support shell and a lower support shell arranged vertically, a rear lens shell installed between the upper support shell and the lower support shell, a front lens shell connected to one side of the rear lens shell, an FPV lens installed inside the front lens shell, a lens mount provided at the upper end of the front lens shell, a thermal imaging lens installed on the front lens shell through the lens mount, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the pitch angle of the FPV lens provided inside the front lens shell and the rear lens shell.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the adjustment mechanism includes a servo motor, a rear housing limiting protrusion, a front housing limiting protrusion, and a bearing. The rear housing limiting protrusion is disposed on one side of the rear housing of the lens, and the front housing limiting protrusion is disposed on the front housing of the lens corresponding to the rear housing limiting protrusion. The bearing is sleeved on the outside of the rear housing limiting protrusion and the front housing limiting protrusion, and the servo motor is fixedly installed between the FPV lens and the rear housing of the lens.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the upper shell and the lower shell of the bracket are provided with corresponding limiting grooves, and the rotating end of the servo motor is limited and positioned inside the limiting groove.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the rear housing limiting protrusion and the front housing limiting protrusion are slidably connected to the bearing.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the upper shell of the bracket and the lower shell of the bracket are fixedly connected by screws.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the rear lens housing and the front lens housing are fixedly connected by screws.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, as can be seen from the above technical solution, its main features are:
[0013] The front housing of this device is fitted with a thermal imaging lens via a lens mount. The thermal imaging lens can be replaced via the lens mount, making this device compatible with various types of lenses.
[0014] The FPV lens can be removed by disassembling the upper and lower shells of the bracket, the rear shell of the lens, and the front shell of the lens, which facilitates the repair and replacement of the FPV lens and makes the device more practical.
[0015] By activating the servo motor in conjunction with the bearing, the rear and front housings of the lens can rotate inside the upper and lower housings of the bracket via the rear and front housing limiting protrusions, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the FPV lens. This makes the device more widely applicable, and thanks to the design of the upper and lower housings, the device can still be used even when the angle is 90 degrees vertical.
[0016] To more clearly illustrate the structural features and effects of this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0024] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly attached to the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.
[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a compatible multi-functional gimbal, including an upper support shell 1 and a lower support shell 2 arranged vertically. The upper support shell 1 and the lower support shell 2 are fixedly connected by screws. The cross-section of the upper support shell 1 and the lower support shell 2 is L-shaped. A lens rear shell 3 is installed between the upper support shell 1 and the lower support shell 2. A lens front shell 4 is connected to one side of the lens rear shell 3. The lens rear shell 3 and the lens front shell 4 are fixedly connected by screws. An FPV lens 9 is installed inside the lens front shell 4. A lens mount 10 is provided at the upper end of the lens front shell 4. A thermal imaging lens 11 is installed on the lens front shell 4 through the lens mount 10. The thermal imaging lens 11 can be partially replaced through the lens mount 10, so that the device can be compatible with various types of lenses. By disassembling the upper support shell 1, the lower support shell 2, the lens rear shell 3, and the lens front shell 4, the FPV lens 9 can be removed, which facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the FPV lens 9, making the device more practical.
[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 5The front housing 4 and rear housing 3 of the lens are internally equipped with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the pitch angle of the FPV lens 9. The adjustment mechanism includes a servo motor 8, a rear housing limiting protrusion 5, a front housing limiting protrusion 6, and a bearing 7. The rear housing limiting protrusion 5 is located on one side of the rear housing 3, and the front housing limiting protrusion 6 is located on the front housing 4 corresponding to the rear housing limiting protrusion 5. The bearing 7 is sleeved on the outside of the rear housing limiting protrusion 5 and the front housing limiting protrusion 6, and the rear housing limiting protrusion 5 and the front housing limiting protrusion 6 are slidably connected to the bearing 7. The servo motor 8 is fixedly installed between the FPV lens 9 and the rear housing 3. The upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 of the bracket are also included. The upper mirror image is provided with a limiting groove. The rotation end of the servo motor 8 is limited inside the limiting groove. When this device is in use, by activating the servo motor 8 in conjunction with the bearing 7, the rear shell 3 and the front shell 4 of the lens can rotate inside the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 of the bracket through the limiting protrusions 5 and 6 of the rear shell and 6 of the front shell, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the FPV lens 9, so that the device can be used in a wider range of applications. Thanks to the design of the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 of the bracket, this device can still be used when it is vertically 90 degrees. Moreover, this device can be equipped with a variety of lenses, making this device versatile.
[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
