Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of video shooting technology, specifically to a foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional shoulder-mounted video shooting stands generally suffer from drawbacks such as bulky structure and non-foldable design. For video enthusiasts who prefer social media and travel shooting, their functionality is relatively limited, and they are inconvenient to carry, thus restricting their use. Therefore, the problem that this utility model aims to solve is to design a stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform that is both foldable and portable, as well as lightweight and compact. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform to solve the technical problems of traditional shoulder-mounted video shooting brackets being bulky, non-foldable, and having limited functionality as described in the background art.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform includes a base with three legs hinged at intervals along its circumference. Two of the legs have folding structures on their end tubes. When the connecting rods of the two folding structures are unfolded from the legs and connected and fixed to each other, a closed triangular structure that can be rested on the shoulder is formed.

[0006] Furthermore, the outrigger has a receiving cavity, and the folding structure includes a connecting rod hinged in the receiving cavity, the free end of the connecting rod having a connecting hole.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the support leg without the aforementioned folding structure is externally connected to a load-bearing seat via screws.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the legs is fixedly connected to a threaded sleeve at its bottom, and a foot nail is threadedly connected to the bottom of the threaded sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the foot pin can be threaded into the connecting hole to connect the two folded structures into one unit.

[0010] Furthermore, the outrigger includes multiple interlocking foot tubes that can extend and retract along the length of the outrigger.

[0011] Furthermore, the leg without the folding structure is provided with a detachable equipment mounting base A for fixing the stabilizer.

[0012] Furthermore, a detachable device mounting base B is installed on both legs with the folding structure for connecting the camera.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model discloses a foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform, wherein the legs adopt a multi-section telescopic design. Specifically, the foot tubes of two of the legs have built-in folding structures. When all the legs are fully extended and fixed, the two legs can be connected via the connecting rods of the folding structures to form a closed-loop triangular support structure (suitable for shoulder support). The bottom of the foot tube of the third leg has a threaded interface, which can be connected to the load-bearing seat for support at the waist (belt position) or abdomen, forming a robust shooting platform together with the aforementioned triangular structure. This structure significantly improves the stability of the stabilizer or camera, providing reliable hardware support for stable video shooting.

[0015] 2. The foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform of this utility model adopts a multi-functional and lightweight design, combining three...

[0016] Tripod Usage Modes and Portable Storage Functions. When the three legs are fully extended and locked, it can be used as a standard tripod. When the legs are retracted and folded, it is as lightweight and compact as a regular tripod, making it easy to store and carry, thus achieving a multi-functional design. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Typical embodiments embodying the features and advantages of this utility model will be specifically described in the following description. It should be understood that this utility model can have various variations in different embodiments, all of which do not depart from the scope of this utility model, and the descriptions and illustrations therein are for illustrative purposes only and not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] In the description of this application, the terms "upper" and "lower" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the structure referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0027] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a foldable stabilizer and camera-mounted shooting platform, including a base 1. The base 1 is used for external connection of equipment such as cameras. Three legs 2 are hingedly installed on the base 1 at intervals along its circumference. The connection between the legs 2 and the base 1 is provided with a locking structure to fix the angle when the multiple legs 2 are unfolded. After the multiple legs 2 are unfolded, they can be used as a regular tripod when they cooperate with the base 1.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The outrigger 2 includes multiple interconnected leg tubes 21 that can extend and retract along the length of the outrigger 2. This allows the outrigger 2 to be stretched or shortened. Each connection point of the multiple leg tubes 21 is equipped with a fixing structure to secure the length of the outrigger 2 after extension or retraction. It is worth noting that the locking and fixing structures can employ locking methods commonly used in existing tripods, such as ratchet or lever locks, which are already well-established and will not be elaborated upon further here.

[0029] Two of the support legs 2 have accommodating cavities 4 on their end sections 21. Each of the two accommodating cavities 4 has a folding structure 3 installed in it. Each folding structure 3 includes a connecting rod 31 hinged to the accommodating cavity 4. The free end of the connecting rod 31 has a connecting hole 32. When the connecting rods 31 of the two folding structures 3 are unfolded from the support legs 2 and connected and fixed to each other, they can cooperate with the two support legs 2 to form a closed triangular structure that can be used on the shoulder. The other support leg 2 can be supported on a belt, forming a sturdy stabilizer and camera mounting platform. The support leg 2 without the folding structure 3 is provided with a detachable equipment mounting base A9 for fixing the stabilizer or other shooting equipment. In this way, when the camera or other shooting equipment is used on the shoulder, it provides hardware support for stable video shooting.

[0030] Please see Figure 4 The bottom of the support leg 2, which does not have the folding structure 3, is connected to a load-bearing seat 5 by screws. The load-bearing seat 5 can be hung on a belt or supported at the navel, thereby distributing the weight of the equipment.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 3 Each of the supporting legs 2 has a threaded sleeve 6 at the bottom of its end section, the foot tube 21. A foot nail 7 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the threaded sleeve 6. When connecting the folding structure 3, the foot nail 7 can be removed from the threaded sleeve 6, and the connecting holes 32 of the connecting rod 31 can be aligned and then threadedly fixed with the foot nail 7. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown.

[0032] Example 2, please refer to Figure 7 Unlike Embodiment 1, the two legs 2 of the folding structure 3 are equipped with a detachable device mounting base B8 near the base 1 for connecting and fixing a camera or other shooting equipment.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
