Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photography, specifically to a three-dimensional support for photography. Background Technology
[0002] A typical shooting system includes a tripod, a stage, and a shooting platform. The stage and shooting platform are mounted on the tripod. Macro stacking shooting is generally divided into vertical shooting (the stage and shooting platform are arranged vertically) and horizontal shooting (the stage and shooting platform are arranged horizontally). If you want to change the shooting method of an existing tripod, you need to remove the stage and shooting platform from the tripod and rearrange and install them, or you need to disassemble the tripod and adjust or reassemble it. These strategies require reinstallation and calibration, and the switching process is relatively troublesome. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a three-dimensional support for shooting, which can achieve quick conversion between vertical and horizontal shooting by direct flipping, which is convenient, time-saving and more stable.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is: a three-dimensional support for shooting, comprising:
[0005] The X-bar is parallel to the X-axis;
[0006] The Y-rod, parallel to the Y-axis, is connected to the middle part of the X-rod, and its end face facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis abuts against the side face of the X-rod facing the positive direction of the Y-axis.
[0007] The Z-rod, parallel to the Z-axis, is connected to the middle part of the X-rod, and its end face facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis abuts against the side face of the X-rod facing the positive direction of the Z-axis.
[0008] Furthermore, to facilitate the adjustment of the positions of the various quick-release brackets used for mounting photographic equipment, the X-bar and / or the Y-bar and / or the Z-bar are provided with slide rails.
[0009] Furthermore, to improve the structural stability of the entire 3D shooting bracket, the interior of the right-angle structure formed by any two of the X-bar, Y-bar, and Z-bar is fixed by triangular fastening angle brackets.
[0010] Furthermore, nuts are built into the positions where the X rod, Y rod, and Z rod are connected to each other, and bolts are threadedly connected to the nuts after passing through the corresponding triangular fastening brackets.
[0011] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the support frame formed by the X rod and the Y rod can be placed stably on uneven surfaces and to provide vibration damping, foot pads are provided at the two ends of the side of the X rod facing the opposite direction of the Y axis and the two ends of the side facing the opposite direction of the Z axis, the free end of the side of the Y rod facing the opposite direction of the Z axis, and the free end of the side of the Z rod facing the opposite direction of the Y axis.
[0012] Furthermore, nuts are built into the positions where the X rod, Y rod, and Z rod are provided with foot pads, and bolts pass through the foot pads and are threadedly connected to the nuts.
[0013] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the placement of nuts within the X rod, Y rod, and Z rod, the nuts are non-circular nuts. The X rod, Y rod, and Z rod are provided with receiving grooves for accommodating the non-circular nuts. The opening of the receiving groove is constricted to prevent the non-circular nuts from detaching from the receiving groove.
[0014] Furthermore, the X-bar, the Y-bar, and the Z-bar are made of aluminum alloy profiles.
[0015] Furthermore, for protective purposes, the free end face of the aluminum alloy profile is fitted with a profile end cap.
[0016] Furthermore, to facilitate the use of photographic equipment mounted on the Y-bar and Z-bar, the Y-bar and Z-bar are aligned on the X-axis.
[0017] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the support surfaces formed by the X-bar and Y-bar, as well as the support surfaces formed by the X-bar and Z-bar, can be placed stably on the table, the sides of the X-bar and Y-bar facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis are located on the same plane; the sides of the X-bar and Z-bar facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis are located on the same plane.
[0018] After adopting the above technical solution, the three-dimensional support of this utility model, after being put into use, has the stage, shooting platform, lighting lamp and other photography equipment installed on the Y and Z rods, and the X and Y rods placed on the support platform, which is one shooting mode. When the three-dimensional support is flipped so that the X and Z rods are placed on the support platform, it switches to another shooting mode. This utility model can switch the placement direction at will, so it is very convenient to switch between horizontal and vertical shooting, which is convenient and time-saving.

[0024] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a three-dimensional scaffold for shooting includes:
[0027] X-rod 1, parallel to the X-axis;
[0028] Y-rod 2, parallel to the Y-axis, is connected to the middle part of X-rod 1, and its end face facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis abuts against the side face of X-rod 1 facing the positive direction of the Y-axis.
[0029] Z-rod 3, parallel to the Z-axis, is connected to the middle part of X-rod 1, and its end face facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis abuts against the side face of X-rod 1 facing the positive direction of the Z-axis.
[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the 3D support is put into use, the stage, shooting platform, lighting equipment, and other photographic equipment are mounted on Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3. Placing X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2 on the support platform constitutes one shooting mode. Flipping the 3D support so that X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3 are placed on the support platform switches to another shooting mode. This embodiment allows for arbitrary switching of the placement direction, making it very convenient to switch between horizontal and vertical shooting. For ease of understanding, taking the shooting platform and stage both mounted on Y-bar 2 as an example, placing the support surface formed by X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2 on the support platform allows for horizontal shooting, while flipping it so that the support surface formed by X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3 is placed on the support platform allows for vertical shooting.
[0031] It's important to note that the working surface formed by X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2 of the 3D support can be quickly flipped to the working surface formed by X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3. Alternatively, the flipping can be skipped, and the shooting platform and stage can be moved directly to switch between horizontal and vertical shooting. These two working surfaces are only different in definition; in actual use, either surface can be placed on the support platform, and the switching method can be selected according to actual needs.
[0032] In actual use, whether shooting vertically or horizontally, photographic equipment is usually mounted on Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3 respectively. In order to facilitate the coordination of photographic equipment on the entire three-dimensional bracket, Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3 are aligned on the X-axis.
[0033] In this embodiment, the sides of X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2 facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis are located on the same plane; the sides of X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3 facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis are also located on the same plane. With this configuration, when the three-dimensional support is flipped so that X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2 simultaneously contact the support platform, the entire three-dimensional support can be stably supported simply by the cooperation of X-bar 1 and Y-bar 2. Similarly, when the three-dimensional support is flipped so that X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3 simultaneously contact the support platform, the entire three-dimensional support can also be stably supported simply by the cooperation of X-bar 1 and Z-bar 3.
[0034] In this embodiment, the lengths of X-bar 1, Y-bar 2, and Z-bar 3 can all be 400mm, although other lengths are also possible. The outer contours of the cross-sections of X-bar 1, Y-bar 2, and Z-bar 3 perpendicular to their length direction can be square, with dimensions of 40*40mm.
[0035] In this embodiment, rods X1, Y2, and Z3 can be made of aluminum alloy profiles or other materials. When aluminum alloy profiles are used, the free end faces of the aluminum alloy profiles are covered with profile end caps 8. The profile end caps 8 serve two purposes: firstly, to seal the end faces of the aluminum alloy profiles, preventing foreign objects from entering the aluminum alloy profiles; and secondly, to prevent the sharp ends of the aluminum alloy profiles from accidentally injuring people.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] Based on one side of the embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, X rod 1 and / or Y rod 2 and / or Z rod 3 are provided with slide rails 7.
[0038] In a specific example, X-bar 1, Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3 are respectively provided with slides 7 extending along the length direction on a pair of opposite sides, and X-bar 1, Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3 have the same cross-section perpendicular to the length direction.
[0039] The quick-release plate holders used for mounting photographic equipment can slide into the corresponding slide rails 7. The slide rails 7 provide convenience for changing the quick-release plate holders, adjusting their positions, and changing the shooting direction.
[0040] Example 3
[0041] Based on Example 1 or Example 2, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the interior of the right-angle structure formed by any two of the X-bar 1, Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3 is fixed by triangular fastening angle brackets 5.
[0042] Among them, there are two triangular fastening brackets 5 connecting X rod 1 and Y rod 2, two triangular fixing brackets 5 connecting X rod 1 and Z rod 3, and one triangular fixing bracket 5 connecting Y rod 2 and Z rod 3. The X rod 1, Y rod 2 and Z rod 3 are connected in pairs, which can improve the overall structural strength.
[0043] To facilitate the connection of the triangular fastening bracket 5 to the X rod 1, Y rod 2 and Z rod 3, nuts are built into the interconnection positions of the X rod 1, Y rod 2 and Z rod 3. The bolt passes through the corresponding triangular fastening bracket 5 and is threaded into the nut.
[0044] Example 4
[0045] Based on Example 1, Example 2, or Example 3, such as Figure 1 As shown, foot pads 4 are provided on the two ends of the side facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis and the two ends of the side facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis of the X-rod 1, the free end of the side facing the opposite direction of the Z-axis of the Y-rod 2, and the free end of the side facing the opposite direction of the Y-axis of the Z-rod 3.
[0046] With foot pad 4 installed, whether shooting vertically or horizontally, even on uneven surfaces, foot pad 4 provides stable support. Furthermore, it ensures three-point support within a single plane, guaranteeing stability and reliability, resulting in more solid and stable shooting.
[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, to facilitate the installation of foot pads 4 on rods X1, Y2, and Z3, nuts are built into the positions of foot pads 4 on rods X1, Y2, and Z3. Bolts pass through foot pads 4 and are threadedly connected to the nuts. As shown in Figure 3, foot pads 4 have through holes. The small end of the bolt passes through the through hole on foot pads 4 and is threadedly connected to the nut, while the large end of the bolt is completely recessed into the through hole.
[0048] In this embodiment, the foot pad 4 is a rubber foot pad, which can also play a shock absorption role.
[0049] Example 5
[0050] Based on Example 3 or Example 4, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the nut is a non-circular nut. The X rod 1, Y rod 2 and Z rod 3 are provided with receiving grooves 6 for accommodating the non-circular nut. The opening of the receiving groove 6 is constricted to prevent the non-circular nut from detaching from the receiving groove 6.
[0051] This makes it easier to place nuts into X-bar 1, Y-bar 2 and Z-bar 3, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty of the entire bracket.
[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the four sides of rod X1, rod Y2 and rod Z3 are provided with receiving grooves 6. Non-circular nuts, such as T-nuts 9, are slidably installed in the receiving grooves 6. The non-circular nuts enter the receiving grooves 6 from the end face of the aluminum alloy profile or from the opening of the receiving groove 6. When the non-circular nuts enter from the opening, they are constrained in the receiving grooves 6 after being rotated by a corresponding angle and cannot come out from the opening of the receiving grooves 6. In the case of a non-circular nut, specifically a European standard T-nut 9, considering the special shape of the T-nut 9 (the two corners of the locking block located in the groove of the receiving groove 6 of the T-nut 9 are rounded corners on one diagonal, and the two corners on the other diagonal are right angles or acute angles), the T-nut 9 can be directly inserted into the receiving groove 6 from the opening of the groove, and then rotated a certain angle in the corresponding direction to be securely locked in the receiving groove 6. During the screwing in of the bolt, the T-nut 9 cannot rotate with the bolt because the opening of the receiving groove 6 restricts the two corners on the other diagonal of the locking block.
[0053] In addition, other photographic equipment that can be bolted to X-bar 1, Y-bar 2, and Z-bar 3, such as lighting equipment and diffusers, can be mounted on X-bar 1, Y-bar 2, or Z-bar 3 using T-nuts 9.
[0054] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
