AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the gimbal is prone to deformation of its support structure due to the high torque of the motor during prolonged operation, which affects the stability and flexibility of the capture device.
A multi-angle free-motion gimbal for omnidirectional capture devices was designed. By setting a protective cover and a drive ring on the mounting base, and using the cooperation of guide sliders and guide grooves, the mounting base is prevented from rotating synchronously with the protective cover and drive ring. The servo motor driven by a damping bearing and a conical worm gear structure reduces the additional stress on the support structure and enables multi-angle capture.
This effectively avoids damage to the support structure due to additional stress during long-term use, reduces the need for high-torque motors, and ensures the stability of the equipment and its multi-angle capture capability.

The top of the support seat 12 is rotatably connected to a fixed shaft 13 through a damping bearing, and the fixed shaft 13 is fixedly installed on the surface of the protective cover 5.
[0033] The advantage of the above arrangement is that, compared with the prior art, the communication line is not electrically connected with the development board 2 from the position of the support base 12, which can reduce the volume and thickness of the support base 12, and secondly, the installation base 1, the development board 2 and the snapshot module circuit board 3 do not rotate synchronously with the protective cover 5 and the driving ring 8, so that when the protective cover 5 and the driving ring 8 rotate, no additional external stress needs to be borne, and no large torque motor is needed, and long-term use will not cause damage to the protective cover 5 and the support base 12.

[0036] The inner wall of the driving ring 8 is provided with an inclined tooth, the top of the support column 4 is fixedly provided with a rudder 10, and the output shaft of the rudder 10 is fixedly provided with a driving column 11, the driving column 11 is a tapered worm structure, and the surface of the driving column 11 is engaged with the gear of the inner wall of the driving ring 8, so that the driving column 11 drives the driving ring 8 to rotate when the driving column 11 rotates, and the support column 4 is driven to rotate by the driving motor;
[0037] The above structure, when in use, the rudder 10 drives the driving ring 8 to rotate through the driving column 11, wherein since the driving column 11 is a tapered worm structure, and the inner wall of the driving ring 8 is provided with an inclined tooth similar to the worm, the driving column 11 can drive the driving ring 8 to rotate through the tooth, and the driving ring 8 drives the camera 9 to move along the meridian.
[0038] Working principle: in use, the utility model is directly arranged in the support column 4, and the power supply wire is penetrated through the guide seat 14 and is electrically connected with the development board 2, wherein the support column 4 is driven by the driving motor and is used for supporting the mounting base 1, in installation, the communication circuit board can be selected to rotate synchronously with the support column 4, also can select fixed and keep communication with the development board 2 through the moving pin, compared with prior art, the communication line is not electrically connected with the development board 2 from the position of the support seat 12, which can reduce the volume and thickness of the support seat 12, the mounting base 1, the development board 2 and the snapshot module circuit board 3 do not rotate synchronously with the protective cover 5 and the driving ring 8, so that when the protective cover 5 and the driving ring 8 rotate, no additional external stress is needed, and a large torque motor is not needed, and long-term use will not cause damage to the protective cover 5 and the support seat 12;
[0039] In work, the support column 4 drives the mounting base 1, the driving ring 8 and the driving ring 8 horizontal rotation, that is, the camera 9 rotates along the latitude, and when the camera 9 needs to rotate along the longitude, the steering engine 10 is powered on at this time, and the steering engine 10 drives the driving ring 8 to rotate through the driving column 11, wherein the driving column 11 is a tapered worm gear structure, and the inner wall of the driving ring 8 is provided with inclined tooth pattern similar to the worm gear, so that the driving column 11 can drive the driving ring 8 to rotate through the tooth pattern, and the driving ring 8 drives the camera 9 to move along the longitude;
[0040] Wherein the camera 9 and the guide slider 7 are staggered, which makes the camera 9 reach the limit shooting position when the guide slider 7 is limited, for example, the camera 9 is close to the guide seat 14 and shoots the bottom position, wherein the movable angle of the guide slider 7 in the inner wall of the guide groove 6 is 90°, and since the protective cover 5 is rotatably connected with the support seat 12 through the damping bearing, and the cross section of the protective cover 5 is a 270° arc structure, the bottom of the mounting base 1 is located below the ball center of the protective cover 5, which makes the driving ring 8 drive the protective cover 5 to rotate in the range of nearly 90° through the guide slider 7 when extreme position shooting is needed, that is, the rotation range of the camera 9 is close to 180°, at this time, the horizontal rotation of the protective cover 5 and the camera 9 driven by the support column 4 is matched, so that the purpose of multi-angle snapshot can be realized;
[0041] The cross section of the protective cover 5 is a 270° arc structure, and the bottom of the mounting base 1 is located below the center of the protective cover 5, so that the protective cover 5 will not be separated from the mounting base 1 in normal rotation, and the cross section of the guide groove 6 is a 90° arc structure, which makes the guide groove 6 not move to the bottom of the mounting base 1 and communicate with the outside no matter how the driving ring 8 rotates, and cooperates with the close fit of the sealing strip 16 and the driving ring 8, so that it can prevent sundries from entering the inside of the protective cover 5 and affecting the normal use of the development board 2 and the snapshot module circuit board 3 inside the protective cover 5.
