[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Similar elements in different embodiments are referred to by related similar element reference numerals. In the following embodiments, many details are described to facilitate a better understanding of the present application. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that some features may be omitted in different situations, or may be replaced by other elements, materials, or methods. In some cases, certain operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification. This is to avoid obscuring the core parts of the present application with excessive description. For those skilled in the art, detailed description of these related operations is not necessary; they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and general technical knowledge in the art.

[0024] Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can be rearranged or adjusted in a manner obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various orders in the specification and drawings are only for the clear description of a particular embodiment and do not imply a necessary order, unless otherwise stated that a particular order must be followed.

[0025] The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first" and "second," are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).

[0026] Currently, drones are typically used for low-altitude panoramic outdoor photography. Users control the drone's propellers via a remote control handle to take pictures. In this method, the user moves a lever on the remote control handle, and the drone responds to the lever signal to fly and shoot, achieving unique panoramic perspectives. This paper provides a handheld shooting structure 10 that can mount a drone and be held handheld for shooting. Users can use the handheld shooting structure 10 with the drone mounted on it for handheld shooting as needed, thus providing a new way to use drones and achieving dual-purpose functionality.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 The handheld shooting structure 10 includes a handheld component 1 and a mounting component 2. The handheld component 1 includes a connecting part 11 and handles 12 disposed at both ends of the connecting part 11. The mounting component 2 is used to mount the drone and is mounted on the connecting part 11.

[0028] With this setup, when in use, the user can mount the drone on the mounting component 2, that is, the mounting component 2 can be attached to the connecting part 11. Then, the user can hold the handles 12 at both ends of the connecting part 11 to move the camera. This setup allows the user to use the drone by hand, enriching the usage modes of the drone and making the use of the drone more diverse.

[0029] Specifically, in handheld shooting with relatively high angles, holding the handle 12 is relatively effortless for the user. However, in handheld shooting with relatively low angles, the user may need to squat while holding the handle 12, making shooting less convenient. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The handheld shooting structure 10 described in this paper may also include a handle assembly 3, which is connected to the top of the mounting assembly 2 or the connecting part 11, and is positioned above the connecting part 11. With this configuration, the user can hold the handle assembly 3 for handheld camera movement, which makes shooting at low angles more convenient.

[0030] Specifically, the handle assembly 3 is mounted on top of the mounting assembly 2, with the mounting assembly 2 located below the connecting part 11 and the handle assembly 3 located above the connecting part 11. The centerline of the handle assembly 3 coincides with the centerline of the mounting assembly 2. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The centerline of the handle assembly 3 coincides with the centerline of the mounting assembly 2, so that the X and Y lines in the figure can largely coincide after extension. This setting ensures that the force on the camera is roughly uniform when the user uses the handle assembly 3, which makes the shooting angle more stable, which is important for shooting efficiency.

[0031] For details on the connection method between handle component 3 and mounting component 2, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The handle assembly 3 includes a handle 31 and a first fastener 32. One of the handle 31's bottom and the top of the mounting assembly 2 is provided with a first slider 311, and the other with a first groove 211. The first slider 311 is disposed in the first groove 211, and the first fastener 32 passes through the bottom of the handle 31 and is threadedly connected to the mounting assembly 2. Specifically, the bottom of the handle 31 includes the first slider 311, the top of the mounting assembly 2 includes the first groove 211, and the first fastener 32 can pass through the bottom of the handle 31 and is threadedly connected to the top of the mounting assembly 2. Here, the first slider 311 sliding within the first groove 211 allows the handle 31 to be initially mounted on the top of the mounting assembly 2. Further, by rotating the first fastener 32, the first fastener 32 is threadedly connected to the mounting assembly 2, further pressing the handle 31 and the mounting assembly 2, thereby stably fixing the first slider 311 within the first groove 211, achieving a double stable installation. Because users are generally in a moving state during movement, a stable mounting structure is very important for the camera movement shooting process.

[0032] On the one hand, please see Figure 1 The handle 31 can be equipped with multiple expansion interfaces 312 for expanding external accessories, such as cold shoe interfaces, Arri positioning ports, etc.

[0033] Please see Figure 2-3The mounting component 2 includes a mounting member 21 and a mounting cage 22. The mounting member 21 is mounted on the connecting part 11, and the mounting cage 22 is mounted on the outer periphery of the drone and is also mounted on the mounting member 21. With this configuration, the user can lock the drone into the mounting cage 22. Specifically, the mounting cage 22 is located below the connecting part 11. The mounting cage 22 is provided with a second slider 221. The second slider 221 has at least one limiting groove 2211 on the side facing the mounting member 21. The mounting member 21 is provided with a second sliding groove 212 and is elastically provided with a limiting member 23. The second sliding groove 212 has an opening 2121 on the side facing the slider so that the limiting member 23 can be exposed. When the second slider 221 is installed in the second sliding groove 212, the limiting member 23 can protrude from the opening 2121 and be locked in the limiting groove 2211. With this configuration, after installation, the limiting member 23 protrudes from the opening 2121 and is engaged within the limiting groove 2211, thereby securing the second slider 221 within the second slide groove 212. Specifically, the second slider 221 can be a NATO slider, and the second slide groove 212 can be a NATO slide groove. To unlock, the limiting member 23 can be pressed, causing it to move towards the interior of the mounting member 21, thus partially disengaging the structure from the opening 2121 and releasing the limiting effect on the second slider 221. For further details, please refer to... Figure 4 The second slider 221 also has a limiting block 2212 at one end, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 The second slide groove 212 also has a limiting opening 2122 at one end, and the limiting block 2212 can be accommodated in the limiting opening 2122. Specifically, the mounting member 21 has a first side surface 213, which is recessed in a direction perpendicular to the connecting part 11 to form a limiting opening 2122 with an open opening on the first side surface 213. The limiting opening 2122 facilitates the sliding of the limiting block 2212, and the bottom wall of the limiting opening 2122 can prevent the second slider 221 from sliding excessively. Multiple expansion interfaces 312 can be provided on the mounting member 21 for expanding external accessories, such as cold shoe interfaces, Arri positioning ports, etc.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 The limiting member 23 includes a limiting shaft 231, an elastic member 232, and a button 233. The button 233 is connected to the limiting shaft 231 and protrudes from the mounting member 21. The elastic member 232 is sleeved on the limiting shaft 231 and is located between the button 233 and the mounting member 21. A limiting protrusion 2311 is provided at the end of the limiting shaft 231 away from the button 233. The limiting protrusion 2311 has a limiting inclined surface 2314. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5The limiting groove 2211 is inclined. When the second slider 221 is installed in the second slide groove 212, the limiting protrusion 2311 can protrude from the opening 2121 so that the limiting inclined surface 2314 abuts against the limiting groove 2211. With this configuration, the user can press button 233 to move the limiting protrusion 2311 axially along the limiting shaft 231 to move away from the opening 2121, allowing the second slider 221 to slide into the second slide groove 212. Then, by releasing button 233, the limiting protrusion 2311 returns to its original position under the action of the elastic element 232, locking itself in the limiting groove 2211. The limiting protrusion 2311 and the inclined surface of the limiting groove 2211 abut against each other, further causing the inclined surface of the second slider 221 to abut against the inclined surface of the second slide groove 212. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 The mounting component 21 includes a first channel 214, a second channel 215, and a third channel 216. A first through hole 2141 is provided between the first channel 214 and the second channel 215. The size of the first through hole 2141 is smaller than that of the second channel 215 to form a first baffle 2142. A second through hole 2151 is provided between the second channel 215 and the third channel 216. The size of the second through hole 2151 is smaller than that of the cross-sectional dimension of the third channel 216 to form a second baffle 2152. An opening 2121 is provided in the third channel 216. The limiting shaft 231 includes a first... A first shaft 2312 and a second shaft 2313 are provided. The first shaft 2312 is connected to the button 233. One end of the second shaft 2313 is connected to the first shaft 2312, and the other end is connected to the limiting protrusion 2311. The cross-sectional dimension of the first shaft 2312 is smaller than that of the second shaft 2313, and the cross-sectional dimension of the second shaft 2313 is smaller than that of the limiting protrusion 2311. With this configuration, during the process of the button 233 driving the limiting shaft 231 to reset, the first baffle 2142 and the second baffle 2152 can respectively limit the movement of the second shaft 2313 and the limiting protrusion 2311.

[0035] Please see Figure 4The mounting cage 22 includes a first cage body 222, a second cage body 223, and a first locking member 224. The first cage body 222 is connected to the bottom of the mounting member 21. The first end of the first cage body 222 and the first end of the second cage body 223 are movably connected. The second end of the first cage body 222 and the second end of the second cage body 223 are detachably connected via the first locking member 224 to form a mounting space 225 for mounting the drone. With this configuration, when mounting the drone, the first locking member 224 can be unlocked, the drone can be placed between the second cage body 223 and the first cage body 222, and then the first cage body 222 and the second cage body 223 can be locked via the first locking member 224 to secure the drone within the mounting space 225. Specifically, the first locking component 224 includes a first mounting shaft 2241, a second mounting shaft 2242, and a knob 2243. The first mounting shaft 2241 is disposed on the second cage 223. One end of the second mounting shaft 2242 is connected to the knob 2243 and engaged with an internal hexagonal socket, while the other end is threadedly connected to the second mounting shaft 2242. The first cage 222 has an opening 2221. During installation, the user can pry the second mounting shaft 2242 into the opening 2221 and then rotate the knob 2243, thereby causing the second mounting shaft 2242 to rotate relative to the first mounting shaft 2241, pressing the first cage 222 and the second cage 223 together to lock the drone. Specifically, the knob 2243 is sleeved on the end of the second mounting shaft 2242 away from the first mounting shaft 2241, and the end of the second mounting shaft 2242 away from the first mounting shaft 2241 is connected to the anti-loosening screw 2344. A spring is sleeved on the second mounting shaft 2242, and both ends abut against the knob 2243 and the anti-loosening screw 2344.

[0036] Considering that the drone has propellers, the first cage 222 and the second cage 223 are respectively provided with fasteners 226 on both sides, which are bent toward the centerline of the first cage 222 and the second cage 223, for limiting and fixing the drone's propellers. Specifically, the centerline referred to here is... Figure 2 The X auxiliary line is shown in the figure.

[0037] Furthermore, when users want long-term and stable shooting footage, they can consider placing the drone on auxiliary photography equipment such as tripods or stabilizers. In this regard, the second cage 223 is connected to a quick-release plate 227 on the side opposite to the mounting space 225, which is used to mount the handheld shooting structure 10 to an external photography device, which may be, but is not limited to, a tripod or stabilizer.

[0038] In some respects, please refer to Figure 1-2One of the handles 12 is equipped with a mounting base 4 for mounting the drone remote control handle. This arrangement allows users to easily operate the drone's camera, such as switching between horizontal and vertical shooting angles, via the drone remote control handle. Furthermore, the drone remote control handle has a display screen, allowing users to monitor the captured footage. Specifically, the mounting base 4 is detachably mounted to the bottom of the handle 12 via a second fastener 41, allowing adjustment of the mounting base 4's tilt angle relative to the mounting component 2. For example, as shown in the figure, the mounting base 4 can be tilted for better viewing by the user.

[0039] On one hand, the connecting part 11 includes a connecting tube with a plurality of external expansion sockets 13, wherein the external expansion socket 13 includes at least one of a cold shoe interface, a threaded interface, a positioning interface, a NATO interface, and a dovetail interface, for mounting external accessories. For example, accessories such as flash units can be mounted.

[0040] For mounting component 21, the external expansion base 13 can be installed onto the connecting pipe in the same way as the locking method of the first cage 222 and the second cage 223 mentioned above, or it can be installed using existing pipe clamps, which will not be discussed further here.

[0041] The above-described specific examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the concept of this invention.
