Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera bracket technology, and in particular to a cage-type gimbal camera bracket for multiple application scenarios. Background Technology
[0002] A camera cage bracket generally refers to a bracket with multiple holes and a cage-like load-bearing space. It is designed to open and close, and when closed, the internal space can just partially enclose the gimbal camera. The bracket's functionality can then be expanded using other expansion areas. The size of the cage-like enclosed space and the number of holes depend on the specific gimbal camera it is used with. When used with a gimbal bracket, this type of camera cage bracket is often used in scenarios where the camera is magnetically attached to a target object for shooting. The target objects mentioned here are often locally sourced materials based on the environment, such as streetlights, iron poles, door frames, car doors, car rear ends, car bodies, etc. Most of these target objects are either flat or curved. The fixed support arm function of existing camera cage brackets is relatively simple, only supporting magnetic fixation for flat targets. It cannot magnetically fix some curved targets, such as bent pipes or round pipes. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cage-type gimbal camera bracket for multiple application scenarios to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background.
[0004] To solve the technical problem, this utility model adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A multi-application-scenario cage-type gimbal camera bracket, comprising:
[0006] The cage-type support body includes a bottom cover and a top cover, which can be closed to form a cage-type space with an opening, and the bottom cover and the top cover can be opened to remove or replace the gimbal camera.
[0007] The support and fixing component is connected to the bottom cover at one end and includes a first support plate and a second support plate. The first support plate and the second support plate are in a first state of being parallel to each other and a second state of forming an angle with each other. Magnetic suction components are provided on the inner sides of the first support plate and the second support plate.
[0008] Specifically, one end of the first support plate is rotatably connected to one end of the bottom cover via a damping hinge shaft, one side of the second support plate is hinged to the first support plate via a first hinge structure, and one side of the bottom cover and the top cover are hinged via a second hinge structure, while the other side is opened and closed via a switch locking mechanism.
[0009] Specifically, the switch locking mechanism includes a slide lock switch and a buckle. A switch groove is recessed on one side of the bottom cover, and the slide lock switch is embedded in the switch groove. The upper end of the switch groove has a slot, and the side has an unlocking groove, wherein the slot and the unlocking groove are connected to the switch groove. A buckle is provided at one end of the top cover. The slide lock switch includes a lever, a limiting sliding part, and a locking part. The lever extends out of the unlocking groove and is limited by the stroke of the unlocking groove. A return spring is also provided on the inner side of the limiting sliding part. The buckle can be inserted into the switch groove through the slot and locked with the locking part. The locking part is unlocked by manually turning the lever to disengage the buckle.
[0010] Specifically, the locking part includes a first locking and a second locking, the buckle includes a first buckle and a second buckle, and the slot includes a first slot and a second slot. The first locking and the second locking are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the slide lock switch, the first buckle and the second buckle are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the face cover, and the first slot and the second slot are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the bottom cover and the switch groove. A clearance groove is also provided on one side of the slide lock switch, and the second locking is located on one side of the clearance groove.
[0011] Specifically, the damping hinge shaft includes a pivot bolt, a first pivot arm, a second pivot arm, and several damping washers.

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0032] refer to Figures 1 to 12 :
[0033] This utility model discloses a cage-type gimbal camera bracket for multiple application scenarios, including a cage-type bracket body 10A. The cage-type bracket body 10A includes a bottom cover 1 and a top cover 2. One end of the bottom cover 1 and the top cover 2 are hinged to each other, and the other end is locked by a switch locking mechanism 8, so that the bottom cover 1 and the top cover 2 can be closed to form a cage-type space A02 with an opening A01, and the bottom cover 1 and the top cover 2 can be opened to remove or replace the gimbal camera. Here, the inner sides of the bottom cover 1 and the top cover 2 are both recessed inward, and the degree and depth of the recess depend on the curvature of the gimbal camera body to be adapted. It also includes a support fixing member 3 for fixing the cage-type bracket body to a target object (with a magnetic metal rod). One end of the support fixing member 3 is connected to the bottom cover 1 and includes a first support plate 31 and a second support plate 32. The first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are connected to the bottom cover 1. The two support plates 32 have a first state of being parallel to each other and a second state of forming an angle between each other. The parallel state means that the surfaces of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are on the same plane, so that the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be attracted to the flat metal rod, such as a street lamp pole, door frame, car door, etc. The second state of forming an angle means that the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can rotate relative to each other to form an angle. This angle allows two plate surfaces to be attracted to the target tube surface when attracted to a round or curved tube with a curved surface (such as a round street lamp pole). The inner sides of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are provided with magnetic attraction components 4. Preferably, the magnetic attraction components 4 are arranged in an array along the height direction of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32.
[0034] Specifically, the lower end of the first support plate 31 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the bottom cover 1 through a damping hinge shaft 5, and one side of the second support plate 32 is hinged to the first support plate 31 through a first hinge structure 6, so that the second support plate 32 can rotate relative to the first support plate 31. This rotation allows the second support plate 32 and the second support plate 32 to adaptively adjust between different states when adsorbing the target object. For example, when adsorbed onto a flat surface, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 automatically become parallel as they stick together. When adsorbed onto a curved tube, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 automatically rotate to adsorb the object because of the magnetic suction component 4.
[0035] In addition, the first support plate 31 rotates relative to the bottom cover 1, so that when the first support plate 31 rotates around the bottom cover 1, it also carries the second support plate 32. Specifically, the rotation of the first support plate 31 and the bottom cover 1 can be within the range of 0-180 degrees. When one end of the first support plate 31 is close to the upper end of the bottom cover 1, it is equivalent to 0 degrees. At this time, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be fixed on the target object. When the rotation angle between the first support plate 31 and the bottom cover 1 is an acute angle, the main body of the rabbit cage bracket can be placed directly on the table or the ground with the support fixing part 3 as the support base for shooting. When the rotation angle between the first support plate 31 and the bottom plate is an obtuse angle or 180 degrees, the support fixing part 3 can be held directly and used as a handheld selfie stick for shooting. Therefore, the structure of this patent can realize shooting in multiple application scenarios.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, the bottom cover 1 and the top cover 2 are hinged on one side by a second hinge structure 7, and opened and closed on the other side by a switch locking mechanism 8. Specifically, the switch locking mechanism 8 includes a sliding lock switch 81 and a buckle 82. A switch groove 83 is formed by a recess on one inner side of the bottom cover 1. The sliding lock switch 81 is embedded in the switch groove 83. A slot 84 is provided at the upper end of the switch groove 83, and an unlocking groove 85 is provided on the side. Both the slot 84 and the unlocking groove 85 are connected to the switch groove 83. The top cover 2 is provided with a buckle 82 at one end corresponding to the slot 84. The sliding lock switch 81 includes... The device includes a lever part 811, a limiting sliding part 812, and a locking part 813. The lever part 811 extends out of the unlocking groove 85 and is limited by the stroke of the unlocking groove 85. The limiting sliding part 812 is limited by the inner groove of the switch groove 83, restricting it to slide only back and forth (or up and down, the direction here depends on the direction of the cover 2). The inner side of the limiting sliding part 812 is also provided with a return spring 86. The buckle 82 can be inserted into the switch groove 83 through the slot 84 and locked with the locking part 813. The device can be unlocked by manually turning the lever part 811 to disengage the locking part 813 from the buckle 82.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, to increase the locking stability, the latch 813 includes a first latch 813a and a second latch 813b, the buckle 82 includes a first buckle 82a and a second buckle 82b, and the slot 84 includes a first slot 84a and a second slot 84b. The first latch 813a and the second latch 813b are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the slide lock switch 81, the first buckle 82a and the second buckle 82b are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the face cover 2, and the first slot 84a and the second slot 84b are sequentially arranged at corresponding positions on the bottom cover 1 and the switch groove 83. A clearance groove 812a is also provided on one side of the slide lock switch 81, and the second latch 813b is located on one side of the clearance groove 812a. The second buckle 82b is inserted downward from the second slot 84b and engages with the second latch 813b through the clearance groove 812a.
[0038] Specifically, the damping hinge shaft 5 includes a pivot bolt 51, a first pivot arm 52, a second pivot arm 53, and several damping pads 54. The bottom cover 1 has a first pivot arm 52 on one side, and a first pivot hole 521 on the first pivot arm 52. The first support plate 31 has a pair of symmetrical second pivot arms 53 on one end, and a second pivot hole 531 on the second pivot arm 53. The pivot bolt 51 passes through the first pivot hole 521, the second pivot hole 531, and the damping pads 54 in sequence to complete the installation of the damping hinge shaft 5. Through the extension of the first pivot arm 52 and the second pivot arm 53, the optimal angle between the support fixing member 3 and the bottom cover 1 can be controlled between 0-180 degrees, or even up to 270 degrees, so as to adapt to the fixing and use of multiple application scenarios.
[0039] Specifically, the inner sides of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are provided with magnet grooves 301, and the magnetic attraction component 4 is embedded in the magnet grooves 301. Preferably, the magnets are disc-shaped and distributed along the length or height of the support fixing member 3.
[0040] As an optional embodiment, since the gimbal camera can be installed and fixed in various ways, such as ball joint connection, GoPro interface connection, and other functional expansion for the gimbal camera, the upper end of the bottom cover 1 is provided with an extension platform 11. The extension platform 11 is provided with a first expansion area 101. The extension platform 11 is a fixing block that extends upward from the upper end of the bottom cover 1. The thickness of the fixing block on the back of the bottom cover 1 is greater than the thickness of the main body of the bottom cover 1. This setting can, on the one hand, increase the original height of the first expansion area 101, preventing the obstruction of the support fixing part 3 when extending other functional parts later. On the other hand, it increases the thickness of the upper back of the bottom cover 1, which can provide a stable base support for the installation of other expanded parts and is not easy to crack. In addition, a second expansion area 201 is provided on one side of the front cover 2. Preferably, the first expansion area 101 is a threaded interface for connecting ball joints and GoPro interfaces, and the second expansion area 201 is a slot 84 interface, which extends to provide a cold shoe interface for connecting photography lights, microphones and other devices, thus enriching the application scenarios of this bracket.
[0041] In a possible improved embodiment, both the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 have a flat plate 310 and an arc plate 320. The two arc plates 320 are located on one side of the second hinge structure 7 that are close to each other, and the two flat plates 310 are located on the outside of the second hinge structure 7 that are far apart from each other. Both pairs of plates are symmetrically distributed about the second hinge structure 7 as an axis. The two arc plates 320 are located in the inner middle area to facilitate the formation of a magnetic bonding surface for the round tube and the curved tube, and the two flat plates are located in the outer area to facilitate bonding to the planar target area.
[0042] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
