Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photographic equipment technology, specifically to a selfie stick. Background Technology
[0002] Existing selfie sticks include a support rod, a tilt adjustment mechanism connected to the support rod, and a mounting platform connected to the tilt adjustment mechanism. The mounting platform is used to mount the shooting equipment. During shooting, the user holds the support rod and adjusts the tilt angle of the tilt adjustment mechanism and the mounting platform as a whole according to the subject being photographed, then takes the picture.
[0003] However, when the tilt adjustment mechanism and the support axis of the mounting platform and the support rod are set at an angle, it is impossible to control the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis, which affects the shooting experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defect that the mounting platform on the selfie stick, which can be adjusted for pitch angle, cannot be controlled to rotate around its own axis by the control components, thereby providing a selfie stick.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A selfie stick, comprising:
[0007] The support rod mechanism has a connecting seat at one end;
[0008] An angle rotating component is rotatably connected to the connecting seat about an angle rotating axis, the axial direction of which is perpendicular to the axial direction of the support rod mechanism.
[0009] The control element is connected to the support rod mechanism;
[0010] The mounting platform is connected to the angle rotating component and can rotate axially around the angle rotating axis with the angle rotating component. The mounting platform is used to mount the shooting equipment.
[0011] The transmission mechanism includes a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, and a third bevel gear that are sequentially meshed and connected in transmission. When the control element is operated, it can drive the first bevel gear to rotate around its own axis. The second bevel gear is fitted around the outer periphery of the angle rotation shaft with relative axial fixation and relative circumferential rotation. The third bevel gear is connected to the mounting platform with relative axial fixation and relative circumferential rotation. The control element can drive the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis through the transmission mechanism.
[0012] Furthermore, the support rod mechanism includes an outer tube, the control member is connected to the outer tube, and the transmission mechanism further includes a transmission rod assembly coaxially disposed inside the outer tube. The transmission rod assembly is tractively connected between the control member and the first bevel gear. The transmission rod assembly is coaxially disposed with the first bevel gear. When the control member is operated, the transmission rod assembly can drive the first bevel gear to rotate relative to the connecting seat around its own axis.
[0013] Furthermore, the support rod mechanism also includes an outer tube assembly coaxially disposed inside the outer sleeve, one end of the outer tube assembly being connected to the outer sleeve, and the connecting seat being fixedly connected to the other end of the outer tube assembly.
[0014] Furthermore, the outer tube assembly is a telescopic tube assembly, and the telescopic end of the telescopic tube assembly is connected to the connecting seat; the transmission rod assembly is a telescopic rod assembly, and the telescopic rod assembly can extend and retract synchronously with the telescopic tube assembly, and the telescopic end of the telescopic rod assembly is connected to the first bevel gear.
[0015] Furthermore, the telescopic tube assembly includes multiple telescopic tubes sequentially nested from the outside to the inside. The multiple telescopic tubes are relatively fixed in the circumference and relatively axially slidable. One end of the outermost telescopic tube is fixedly connected to the outer sleeve, and the telescopic end of the innermost telescopic tube is fixedly connected to the connecting seat.
[0016] The telescopic rod assembly includes multiple transmission rods arranged sequentially from the inside out. The multiple transmission rods are relatively fixed in the circumference and relatively axially sliding. One end of the innermost transmission rod is connected to the control component, and the telescopic end of the outermost transmission rod is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear.
[0017] Furthermore, the connecting seat is provided with a pair of ear plates arranged opposite each other, the angle rotation shaft is fixedly connected between the pair of ear plates, and the angle rotation member is rotatably connected to the angle rotation shaft with damping.
[0018] Furthermore, the mounting platform is located at the end of the angle rotating member away from the connecting seat, and a platform connecting column is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting platform facing the third bevel gear. A connecting shaft assembly is connected between the center hole of the third bevel gear and the center hole of the platform connecting column. The connecting shaft assembly is used to achieve relative axial fixation of the third bevel gear and the platform connecting column.
[0019] Furthermore, the mounting platform has a positioning hole on one side facing the angle rotating member, the angle rotating member has a mounting through hole with both ends through it, and a locking pin assembly is provided in the mounting through hole. The locking pin assembly is located between the third bevel gear and the mounting platform. The locking pin assembly has a locked state in which it extends into the positioning hole under the thrust of the third bevel gear to restrict the mounting platform from rotating around its own axis, and an unlocked state in which it extends out of the positioning hole to allow the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis.
[0020] Furthermore, the side of the third bevel gear facing the mounting platform includes a protrusion and a recess located on the same circumference of the third bevel gear, and the distance between the recess and the mounting platform is greater than the distance between the protrusion and the mounting platform; when the protrusion of the third bevel gear is located at one end of the locking pin assembly, the protrusion presses one end of the locking pin assembly so that the other end of the locking pin assembly extends into the positioning hole; when the recess of the third bevel gear is located at one end of the locking pin assembly, one end of the locking pin assembly extends into the recess so that the other end of the locking pin assembly moves out of the positioning hole.
[0021] Furthermore, an inclined transition portion is provided at the position where the convex portion and the concave portion meet.
[0022] Furthermore, the third bevel gear has a transmission part on the side facing the mounting platform, corresponding to the platform connecting post. The outer periphery of the transmission part has at least one transmission protrusion. The side of the platform connecting post facing the transmission part has at least one pair of driven protrusions located on the same circumference and spaced apart. The at least one pair of driven protrusions and the transmission protrusion are located on the same circumference. When the transmission protrusion rotates to the position of abutting against the driven protrusion, the transmission protrusion drives the driven protrusion to rotate synchronously, so that the platform connecting post and the mounting platform rotate around their own axial direction. When the transmission protrusion rotates between the pair of driven protrusions, the driven protrusion does not rotate synchronously with the transmission protrusion.
[0023] Furthermore, when the locking pin assembly and the recessed part of the third bevel gear are positioned correspondingly, the third bevel gear can drive the driven protrusion to rotate synchronously when rotating through the transmission protrusion; when the locking pin assembly and the protrusion of the third bevel gear are positioned correspondingly, the third bevel gear does not drive the driven protrusion to rotate synchronously when rotating.
[0024] Furthermore, a latch release spring is also provided in the mounting through hole. The latch assembly includes a latch fixing seat disposed in the mounting through hole and a latch connected to the latch fixing seat. One end of the latch can extend into the positioning hole. The latch release spring is elastically disposed between the latch fixing seat and the angle rotating member. The elastic force of the latch release spring is suitable for driving the latch fixing seat to move away from the mounting platform, so that the latch extends out of the positioning hole.
[0025] Furthermore, the locking pin assembly also includes a locking pin limiting seat and a locking pin spring. The locking pin limiting seat is movably connected to the locking pin fixing seat along the axial direction of the locking pin assembly. The locking pin limiting seat has a limiting protrusion at one end facing away from the locking pin. The locking pin spring is elastically disposed between the locking pin limiting seat and the locking pin. The elastic force of the locking pin spring is suitable for driving the locking pin limiting seat to move towards the third bevel gear, so that the limiting protrusion and the protrusion or concave part of the third bevel gear abut against each other.
[0026] The technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages:
[0027] 1. The selfie stick provided by this utility model, when the angle rotating component rotates to any angle position, utilizes a transmission mechanism between the control component and the mounting platform, which includes three sequentially meshing bevel gears. The first bevel gear can rotate around its own axis under the control of the control component. The centrally located second bevel gear is fixed axially and rotates circumferentially around the outer circumference of the angle rotating shaft. The third bevel gear, which is connected to the mounting platform, maintains meshing with the second bevel gear as the angle rotating component and the mounting platform rotate as a whole. Therefore, the transmission force of the control component can always be transmitted to the mounting platform through the three bevel gears. Regardless of the angle of rotation, the control component can control the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis, enriching the functionality of the selfie stick. In scene-to-selfie video shooting scenarios, the shooting angle of the mounting platform and its onboard shooting equipment can be quickly adjusted, and the captured video can be edited without further editing, reducing the requirements for the photographer's professional skills.
[0028] 2. The selfie stick provided by this utility model has a control component connected to the outer tube, and a transmission rod assembly coaxially disposed inside the outer tube. When the outer tube is relatively thin and can be held with one hand for shooting, the control component on the outer tube can be operated with fingers. The control component can drive the mounting platform and the shooting equipment on it to rotate via the transmission rod assembly. When the outer tube is relatively thick and requires two hands to hold for shooting, one hand can hold the outer tube while the other hand operates the control component to rotate the mounting platform and the shooting equipment on it. The overall structure is compact and easy to operate.
[0029] 3. The selfie stick provided by this utility model has an outer tube assembly that is a telescopic tube assembly and a transmission rod assembly that is a telescopic rod assembly. The telescopic rod assembly and the telescopic tube assembly can extend and retract synchronously. In addition to enabling the extension and retraction adjustment of the selfie stick, the control component can control the installation platform to rotate around its own axis, thus enriching the functions of the selfie stick.
[0030] 4. The selfie stick provided by this utility model has an angle rotating component with damping rotatably connected to the angle rotating shaft, which facilitates arbitrary adjustment of the angle rotating component and the angle of the mounting platform on it, making it easy to adjust the pitch angle of the shooting device on the mounting platform.
[0031] 5. The selfie stick provided by this utility model, with its internal locking pin assembly in the angle rotating component and the positioning hole on the mounting platform, allows the locking pin assembly to restrict the rotation of the mounting platform and fix it at a set angle position when the third bevel gear rotates around its own axis and extends into the positioning hole under the action of the third bevel gear. When the locking pin assembly extends out of the positioning hole, the third bevel gear can drive the mounting platform to rotate, thereby adjusting the shooting direction of the mounting platform.

[0045] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 A selfie stick, as shown, includes a support rod mechanism, a connecting seat 3, an angle rotating component 4, an angle rotating shaft 5, a mounting platform 7, and a transmission mechanism. In some embodiments, the support rod mechanism includes an outer tube 1 and an outer tube assembly 2 coaxially disposed inside the outer tube 1. One end of the outer tube assembly 2 is connected to the outer tube 1, and the connecting seat 3 is fixedly connected to the other end of the outer tube assembly 2. A control component 6 is connected to one end of the outer tube 1. The angle rotating component 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 3 about the axial direction of an angle rotating shaft 5, the axial direction of which is perpendicular to the axial direction of the support rod mechanism. The mounting platform 7 is connected to the side of the angle rotating component 4 facing away from the connecting seat 3, and the mounting platform 7 can rotate with the angle rotating component 4 about the axial direction of the angle rotating shaft 5. The mounting platform 7 is used to mount the shooting equipment. The transmission mechanism is drivingly connected between the control component 6 and the mounting platform 7. In an alternative embodiment, the outer tube assembly 2 can be omitted, and the support rod mechanism can consist only of a longitudinally extending outer tube 1, in which case the connecting seat 3 is directly fixed to one axial end of the outer tube 1. This selfie stick has several advantages. When the outer tube 1 is thin enough to be held with one hand for shooting, the control component 6 on the outer tube 1 can be operated with the fingers. The control component 6 drives the mounting platform 7 and the shooting device on it to rotate through the transmission mechanism. When the outer tube 1 is thicker and requires both hands to hold it for shooting, one hand can hold the outer tube 1 while the other hand operates the control component 6 to rotate the mounting platform 7 and the shooting device on it. The overall structure is compact and easy to operate.
[0047] In some embodiments, the transmission mechanism includes a first bevel gear 81, a second bevel gear 82, and a third bevel gear 83 that are sequentially meshed and connected, and a transmission rod assembly 84 coaxially disposed inside the outer tube assembly 2. One end of the transmission rod assembly 84 is connected to the control member 6, and the other end of the transmission rod assembly 84 is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 81, and the transmission rod assembly 84 and the first bevel gear 81 are coaxially disposed; when the control member 6 is operated, the transmission rod assembly 84 can drive the first bevel gear 81 to rotate around its own axis relative to the connecting seat 3. The second bevel gear 82 is fixed in the axial direction and rotatably mounted on the outer circumference of the angle rotation shaft 5, and the axial direction of the second bevel gear 82 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the first bevel gear 81. The third bevel gear 83 is fixed in the axial direction and rotatably connected to the mounting platform 7, and when the control member 6 is operated, the sequential transmission between the transmission rod assembly 84, the first bevel gear 81, the second bevel gear 82, and the third bevel gear 83 can drive the mounting platform 7 to rotate around its own axis. In some alternative embodiments, the transmission rod assembly 84 inside the outer tube assembly 2 can be omitted, and the control member 6 can directly drive the first bevel gear 81 to rotate around its own axis, or indirectly drive the first bevel gear 81 to rotate around its own axis through other transmission members located outside the outer tube 1.
[0048] This selfie stick, when the angle rotating component 4 rotates to any angle position, utilizes a transmission mechanism between the control component 6 and the mounting platform 7, which includes three sequentially meshing bevel gears. The first bevel gear 81 can rotate around its own axis under the control of the control component 6. The centrally located second bevel gear 82 is fixed axially and rotates circumferentially around the outer circumference of the angle rotating shaft 5. The third bevel gear 83, connected to the mounting platform 7, remains meshed with the second bevel gear 82 as the angle rotating component 4 and the mounting platform 7 rotate as a whole. Therefore, the transmission force of the control component 6 can always be transmitted to the mounting platform 7 through the three bevel gears. Regardless of the angle to which the angle rotating component 4 rotates, the control component 6 can control the mounting platform 7 to rotate around its own axis, enriching the selfie stick's functionality. In scene-to-selfie video shooting scenarios, the shooting angle of the mounting platform 7 and the shooting device on it can be quickly adjusted, and the shot can be edited without editing, reducing the requirements for the photographer's professional skills.
[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the outer tube assembly 2 is a telescopic tube assembly, with its telescopic end fixedly connected to the connecting seat 3. The telescopic tube assembly includes multiple telescopic tube sections sequentially nested from the outside in. These sections are relatively circumferentially fixed and relatively axially sliding. One end of the outermost telescopic tube section is fixedly connected to the outer sleeve 1, and the telescopic end of the innermost telescopic tube section is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 3. The transmission rod assembly 84 is a telescopic rod assembly capable of telescopically extending and retracting synchronously with the telescopic tube assembly. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod assembly is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 81. The telescopic rod assembly includes multiple transmission rod sections sequentially nested from the inside out. These sections are relatively circumferentially fixed and relatively axially sliding. One end of the innermost transmission rod section is connected to the control element 6, and the telescopic end of the outermost transmission rod section is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 81. This type of selfie stick, because the telescopic rod assembly can extend and retract synchronously with the telescopic tube assembly, allows the control component 6 to control the mounting platform 7 to rotate around its own axis when the selfie stick is at any length position, thus enriching the functionality of the selfie stick.
[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the control element 6 is a knob connected to one end of the outer sleeve 1. The inner wall of the knob is provided with a gear ring. One end of the transmission rod assembly 84 is fixedly connected to a central gear 85. The transmission mechanism also includes three planetary gears 86 that are meshed and connected between the gear ring and the central gear 85. An end cap 11 is fixedly connected to one axial end of the outer sleeve 1, and the end cap 11 covers the outside of the three planetary gears 86 and the central gear 85. By rotating the control element 6, the control element 6 drives the transmission rod assembly 84 of the central gear 85 located at the center to rotate through the planetary gear structure. This transmission method has high transmission stability. In alternative embodiments, the control element 6 can be set at any position outside the outer sleeve 1. The control element 6 can be a left-right toggle knob, a up-down toggle knob, a press button, etc. The control element 6 can be any type of operation.
[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting seat 3 is U-shaped and includes a base plate 31 and a pair of ear plates 32 connected to both ends of the base plate 31 and arranged opposite each other. The base plate 31 and the outer tube assembly 2 are fixedly connected. The base plate 31 has an opening, and one end of the transmission rod assembly 84 passes through the opening on the base plate 31. The first bevel gear 81 is fixed to the end of the transmission rod assembly 84 that passes through the base plate 31, and the first bevel gear 81 is located between the pair of ear plates 32. The angle rotation shaft 5 is fixedly connected between the pair of ear plates 32, and the angle rotating member 4 is rotatably connected to the angle rotation shaft 5 with damping. The way in which the angle rotating member 4 is rotatably connected to the angle rotation shaft 5 with damping facilitates arbitrary adjustment of the angle rotating member 4 and the angle of the mounting platform 7 on it, making it easy to adjust the pitch angle of the shooting equipment on the mounting platform 7.
[0052] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting platform 7 is located at the end of the angle rotating member 4 away from the connecting seat 3, and a positioning hole 7a is provided on the side of the mounting platform 7 facing the angle rotating member 4. A platform connecting column 71 is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting platform 7 facing the third bevel gear 83. A connecting shaft assembly 72 is connected between the center hole of the third bevel gear 83 and the center hole of the platform connecting column 71. The connecting shaft assembly 72 is used to achieve relative axial fixation between the third bevel gear 83 and the platform connecting column 71. The angle rotating member 4 includes a top plate that mates with the mounting platform 7. The top plate has a central through hole and a mounting through hole 4a that are through at both ends. The mounting through hole 4a is offset from the center position of the top plate. A locking pin assembly 9 is installed in the mounting through hole 4a. The extension and retraction direction of the locking pin assembly 9 is the same as the connection direction between the angle rotating member 4 and the mounting platform 7. One end of the locking pin assembly 9 can extend out of the top surface 4b of the top plate, and the other end of the locking pin assembly 9 can extend out of the inner side of the top plate. The locking pin assembly 9 has a locked state where it extends into the positioning hole 7a under the thrust of the third bevel gear 83 to restrict the rotation of the mounting platform 7 around its own axis, and an unlocked state where it extends out of the positioning hole 7a to allow the mounting platform 7 to rotate around its own axis. During the rotation of the third bevel gear 83 around its own axis, when the locking pin assembly 9 can extend into the positioning hole 7a under the action of the third bevel gear 83, the locking pin assembly 9 can restrict the rotation of the mounting platform 7, fixing the mounting platform 7 at a set angular position. When the locking pin assembly 9 extends out of the positioning hole 7a, the third bevel gear 83 can drive the mounting platform 7 to rotate, thereby adjusting the shooting direction of the mounting platform 7.
[0053] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the third bevel gear 83 includes a gear disk body 831 with an integral structure, a bevel gear portion 832, and a transmission portion. The bevel gear portion 832 and the transmission portion are located on opposite sides of the gear disk body 831. The bevel gear portion 832 of the third bevel gear 83 meshes with the third bevel gear 83, and the transmission portion and the platform connecting post 71 are in a transmission engagement. The side of the gear disk body 831 facing the mounting platform 7 includes a protrusion 831a and a recess 831b located on the same circumference of the gear disk body 831. The distance between the recess 831b and the mounting platform 7 is greater than the distance between the protrusion 831a and the mounting platform 7. When the protrusion 831a of the gear disk body 831 is located at one end of the locking pin assembly 9, the protrusion 831a presses one end of the locking pin assembly 9 so that the other end of the locking pin assembly 9 extends into the positioning hole 7a. When the recess 831b of the third bevel gear 83 is located at one end of the locking pin assembly 9, one end of the locking pin assembly 9 extends into the recess 831b so that the other end of the locking pin assembly 9 moves out of the positioning hole 7a. An inclined transition portion 831c is provided at the position where the protrusion 831a and the recess 831b meet.
[0054] Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, a pair of transmission protrusions 833 are integrally formed on the outer circumference of the transmission part, and a pair of driven protrusions 711 located on the same circumference and spaced apart are provided on the side of the platform connecting column 71 facing the transmission part. The pair of driven protrusions 711 and the transmission protrusions 833 are located on the same circumference. When the transmission protrusion 833 rotates to the position of abutting against the driven protrusion 711, the transmission protrusion 833 drives the driven protrusion 711 to rotate synchronously, so that the platform connecting column 71 and the mounting platform 7 rotate about their own axial direction; when the transmission protrusion 833 rotates between the pair of driven protrusions 711, the driven protrusions 711 do not rotate synchronously with the transmission protrusion 833. It can be understood here that the number and position of the transmission protrusions 833 and the driven protrusions 711 can be adaptively selected according to the requirements of the rotation angle. When the positions of the locking pin assembly 9 and the recess 831b of the third bevel gear 83 are correspondingly set, the third bevel gear 83 can drive the driven protrusion 711 to rotate synchronously through the transmission protrusion 833 when it rotates; when the positions of the locking pin assembly 9 and the protrusion 831a of the third bevel gear 83 are correspondingly set, the third bevel gear 83 does not drive the driven protrusion 711 to rotate synchronously when it rotates.
[0055] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, a locking pin release spring 10 is provided in the mounting through hole 4a. The locking pin assembly 9 includes a locking pin fixing seat 91 disposed in the mounting through hole 4a and a locking pin 92 connected to the locking pin fixing seat 91. One end of the locking pin 92 can extend into the positioning hole 7a. The locking pin release spring 10 is elastically disposed between the locking pin fixing seat 91 and the angle rotating member 4. The elastic force of the locking pin release spring 10 is suitable for driving the locking pin fixing seat 91 to move away from the mounting platform 7, so that the locking pin 92 extends out of the positioning hole 7a. The locking pin assembly 9 also includes a locking pin limiting seat 93 and a locking pin spring 94. The locking pin limiting seat 93 is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the locking pin fixing seat 91 along the axial direction of the locking pin assembly 9. The end of the locking pin limiting seat 93 facing away from the locking pin 92 is provided with a hemispherical limiting protrusion 931. The locking pin spring 94 is elastically disposed between the locking pin limiting seat 93 and the locking pin 92. The elastic force of the locking spring 94 is suitable for driving the locking pin limit seat 93 to move towards the third bevel gear 83, so that the limiting protrusion 931 and the protrusion 831a or concave portion 831b of the third bevel gear 83 abut against each other.
[0056] When the control component 6 is operated, the control component 6 will drive the transmission rod assembly 84 to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 81 to rotate around its own axis. The second bevel gear 82 follows the first bevel gear 81 to rotate, and the third bevel gear 83 follows the second bevel gear 82 to rotate. When the third bevel gear 83 initially rotates, the transmission protrusion 833 placed on the third bevel gear 83 will rotate from the first side wall of one driven protrusion 711 to the second side wall of another driven protrusion 711 (or from the second side wall of one driven protrusion 711 to the first side wall of another driven protrusion 711). Then the transmission protrusion 833 abuts against the driven protrusion 711. At the same time, the contact position between the locking pin assembly 9 and the third bevel gear 83 moves from the protrusion 831a to the recess 831b. At this time, the locking pin assembly 9 disengages from the mounting platform 7, and the mounting platform 7 fixed on the platform connecting column 71 can rotate with the third bevel gear 83. When the third bevel gear 83 rotates to a certain angle, the locking pin assembly 9 moves back to the protrusion 831a, and the locking pin assembly 9 just touches the positioning hole 7a placed on the mounting platform 7. One end of the locking pin assembly 9 extends into the positioning hole 7a again to fix the mounting platform 7, so that the mounting platform 7 is fixed at the set rotation angle. The reverse operation control unit 6 and the mounting platform 7 can return to the original angle along the same path. The rotation angle is set during the design process, and in this embodiment, the rotation angle is 180 degrees.
[0057] The specific operation of this selfie stick is as follows: The operator installs the shooting device on the mounting platform 7, stretches the outer tube assembly 2 to a suitable length, and then rotates the angle rotating component 4 to rotate the shooting device to the desired shooting angle. Holding the outer tube 1 and operating the control component 6, the operator can control the mounting platform 7 to rotate along its own and the mounting axis of the angle rotating component 4. In the scene-to-selfie video shooting scenario, no post-editing is required for the video shooting.
[0058] In summary, the selfie stick provided by this utility model embodiment has the following advantages: Since the third bevel gear, which is connected to the mounting platform, always maintains meshing with the second bevel gear when the angle rotating component and the mounting platform rotate as a whole, the transmission force of the control component can always be transmitted to the mounting platform through the three bevel gears. Regardless of the angle of rotation of the angle rotating component, the control component can control the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis, enriching the functionality of the selfie stick. In video shooting scenarios where scenes transition to selfies, the shooting angle of the mounting platform and the shooting device on it can be quickly adjusted, and the shot can be edited without editing, reducing the requirements for the professional skills of the photographer. Moreover, when the selfie stick is extended to any length, the control component can control the mounting platform to rotate around its own axis.
[0059] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
