[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] First Embodiment

[0026] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first embodiment of a handheld support for a drone provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of the mounting assembly. A handheld support for a drone includes: a middle frame 1, a mounting plate 2, two grips 3, a crossbar 4, a handle 5, and a mounting assembly 6;

[0027] The mounting component 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the middle frame 1, the crossbar 4 is disposed inside the mounting component 6, and one end of each of the two handles 3 is fixedly installed on both ends of the crossbar 4.

[0028] The handle 5 is fixedly installed on the surface of the crossbar 4;

[0029] The mounting plate 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the grip 3.

[0030] The middle frame 1 and the mounting component 6 are fixed together by a hand screw, which is used to connect the middle frame 1 and the mounting component.

[0031] The crossbar 4 and the mounting component 6 are clamped together by screws to facilitate the connection between the middle frame component and the crossbar.

[0032] The crossbar 4 and the handle 5 are clamped together by screws, allowing for single-handed lifting and operation.

[0033] The handle 3 and the crossbar 4 are fixed and clamped together with screws, so that they can be operated by holding them with both hands.

[0034] Mounting plate 2 is fixed to the bottom of grip 3 with screws, and the drone remote controller is fixed with two hand screws to connect the remote controller and mounting plate 2.

[0035] The middle frame 1 is divided into two halves, with one end of each half rotatably connected. Both halves have threaded holes inside that are compatible with bolts. After placing the drone inside the middle frame 1, it can be rotated to one side to a suitable position and then fixed with bolts, thus firmly fixing the drone to the bracket and ensuring that the drone will not shake or fall off when handheld.

[0036] Furthermore, the connection between the middle frame 1 and the drone must be precisely adapted to the shape of the drone and the mounting holes, using fasteners, screws, and other connection methods to ensure a reliable connection without damaging the drone.

[0037] The components include the middle frame (1), mounting plate (2), two grips (3), crossbar (4), handle (5), and mounting assembly (6). The materials are generally lightweight but strong alloys or high-strength engineering plastics, balancing weight and strength.

[0038] The working principle of the handheld bracket for drones provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0039] In use, the drone is installed inside the middle frame 1, and the remote control is installed on the mounting plate 2.

[0040] After moving by covering the two handles 3 with both hands, the crossbar 4 connected to the mounting component 6 moves, causing the middle frame 1 to move the drone.

[0041] It can also be operated with one hand by holding handle 5.

[0042] Compared with related technologies, the handheld support for drones provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0043] This utility model provides a handheld bracket for drones. The drone is fixed by the middle frame 1, and the remote control is fixed by the mounting plate 2. The drone can be picked up and handheld for shooting by two grips 3, a crossbar 4, and a mounting component 6. At the same time, it can be operated with one hand by the handle 5. Thus, the drone, which can only fly, is transformed into a handheld device. This makes it convenient to operate flexibly like a handheld camera in some close-range, low-altitude, or special scenarios, such as indoor shooting and close-up shooting. Compared with drone flight operation, handheld operation is simpler and more direct, reducing the difficulty of operation. No complicated flight control skills are required, and ordinary users can quickly get started to shoot or perform other tasks.

[0044] Second Embodiment

[0045] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5Based on the handheld support for drones provided in the first embodiment of this application, the second embodiment of this application proposes another handheld support for drones. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.

[0046] Specifically, the second embodiment of this application provides a handheld support for drones that differs in that the handheld support for drones has a clamping device 7 inside the middle frame 1. The clamping device 7 includes two sliding holes 71, two sliding rods 72 and two return springs 73. The two sliding holes 71 are both opened inside the middle frame 1. The two sliding rods 72 are slidably connected to the inside of the two sliding holes 71 respectively. The two return springs 73 are respectively sleeved on the surface of the two sliding rods 72.

[0047] Both halves of the middle frame 1 are fixedly connected to protective pads inside. The protective pads can be made of materials such as sponge, rubber, and silicone, and are used to protect the middle frame 1 from the drone.

[0048] The middle frame 1 is divided into two halves. One end of each of the two sliding rods 72 is fixedly connected to the two ends of the upper half of the middle frame 1, while the two sliding holes 71 are opened inside the lower half of the middle frame 1. They are used to push the half of the middle frame 1 to move by the return spring 73, and to clamp and limit the drone placed inside the middle frame 1.

[0049] The middle frame 1 is provided with a fixing device 8, which includes two fixing holes 81 and two fixing pins 82. The two fixing holes 81 are opened inside the middle frame 1, and the two fixing pins 82 are threaded into the two fixing holes 81 respectively.

[0050] The fixing pin 82 is a hand-tightening bolt, and the fixing hole 81 is a threaded hole that matches the fixing pin 82. It is used to limit the sliding rod 72 after one end of the fixing pin 82 contacts the surface of the sliding rod 72, and the sliding rod 72 can move when separated.

[0051] The fixing device 8 also includes two moving slots 83 and two moving blocks 84. The two moving slots 83 are both opened inside the middle frame 1, and the two moving blocks 84 are slidably connected to the inside of the two moving slots 83 respectively.

[0052] One end of the movable block 84 has the same surface shape as the sliding rod 72, which is used to increase the contact area between the fixing pin 82 and the sliding rod 72, thereby increasing the fixing effect.

[0053] One end of each of the two movable blocks 84 is rotatably connected to one end of each of the two fixed pins 82.

[0054] When the fixing pin 82 is rotated to one side, the fixing pin 82 moves to one side inside the fixing hole 81, thereby pushing the moving block 84 to move to one side inside the moving groove 83. When the moving block 84 moves to one side and contacts the surface of the sliding rod 72, it limits the sliding rod 72.

[0055] The fixing device 8 also includes a protective pad 85, one side of which is fixedly connected to one side of the movable block 84.

[0056] The protective pad 85 is made of rubber and is used to increase the friction between the moving block 84 and the sliding rod 72, thereby increasing the fixing effect.

[0057] The working principle of the handheld bracket for drones provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0058] In use, after inserting the drone into the middle frame 1, the middle frame 1 extends, thereby causing the two sliding holes 71 to move on the surfaces of the two sliding rods 72, while simultaneously squeezing the two return springs 73. After the middle frame 1 moves to the appropriate position, the fixing pin 82 is rotated to one side, causing the fixing pin 82 to move to one side inside the fixing hole 81, so that one end of the fixing pin 82 contacts the surface of the sliding rod 72, and the middle frame 1 is limited.

[0059] When the drone is removed from the inside of the middle frame 1, the two return springs 73 push the middle frame 1 to retract and reset.

[0060] Compared with related technologies, the handheld support for drones provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0061] This utility model provides a handheld bracket for drones. The clamping device 7 and the fixing device 8 limit the middle frame, allowing the operator to install the drone and the middle frame with one hand, thus facilitating the installation of the drone.

[0062] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
