[0045] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1-10. This embodiment of the present invention provides a handheld gimbal camera, including a handheld part 1 and a gimbal camera 2. The gimbal camera 2 is disposed on the handheld part 1. The handheld part 1 includes a mounting part 5 and a display part 4. The display part 4 is slidably connected to the mounting part 5 and can slide relative to the mounting part 5. The display part 4 has at least two states relative to the handheld part 1. In the first state, the gimbal camera 2 is exposed to the display part 4; in the second state, the gimbal camera 2 is in a non-working state and the display part 4 locks the gimbal camera 2.

[0047] The non-working states of the gimbal camera 2 described in this utility model include being powered off or in sleep mode.

[0048] Specifically, the display unit 4 has at least two states relative to the handheld unit 1, which can be referred to as the display unit 4 having at least two position states relative to the handheld unit 1. The first state can be referred to as the first position state, and the second state can be referred to as the second position state.

[0049] When the display unit 4 locks the gimbal camera 2, the gimbal camera 2 cannot rotate freely; when the display unit 4 releases the gimbal camera 2, the gimbal camera 2 can rotate freely.

[0050] In some embodiments, during the transition from the first state to the second state, the display unit 4 slides relative to the handheld unit 1 toward the gimbal camera 2, and in the second state, the display unit 4 locks the gimbal camera 2; during the transition from the second state to the first state, the display unit 4 slides relative to the handheld unit 1 away from the gimbal camera 2, and in the first state, the display unit 4 releases the gimbal camera 2.

[0051] Specifically, switching from the first state to the second state can also be referred to as sliding from the first position state to the second position state. Switching from the second state to the first state can also be referred to as sliding from the second position state to the first position state.

[0052] In some embodiments, the display unit 4 includes a receiving space 48. In a first state, the receiving space 48 receives and is fixed to the handheld part 1; in a second state, the receiving space 48 receives the handheld part 1 and at least part of the gimbal camera 2, and locks the gimbal camera 2.

[0053] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 5 of the handheld portion 1 includes a first sliding portion 51, and the display portion 4 includes a second sliding portion 41. The first sliding portion 51 and the second sliding portion 41 are matched and disposed so that the display portion 4 slides on the mounting portion 5.

[0054] In some embodiments, first sliding portions 51 and 52 are disposed on both sides of the mounting portion 5, and second sliding portions 41 and 42 are disposed on both sides of the display portion 4. The first sliding portions 51 and 52 located on both sides of the mounting portion 5 are correspondingly matched with the second sliding portions 41 and 42 located on both sides of the display portion 4. The ends of the first sliding portions 51 and 52 and / or the second sliding portions 41 and 42 are provided with first stop members to prevent the first sliding portions 51 and 52 and the second sliding portions 41 and 42 from disengaging from each other.

[0055] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5-6 and 8-10, the mounting part 5 is provided with a first limiting member 57, and the display part 4 has a second limiting member 47. The second limiting member 47 is disposed at at least two positions of the display part 4, and the second limiting member 47 includes a limiting member 471 at a first position and a limiting member 472 at a second position. The first limiting member 57 can be matched and connected with the limiting member 471 at the first position or the limiting member 472 at the second position.

[0056] In some embodiments, when the display unit 4 is in a first state, the first limiting member 57 matches the limiting member 471 at the first position to restrict the movement of the display unit 4 relative to the handheld part 1; when the display unit 4 is in a second state, the first limiting member 57 matches the limiting member 472 at the second position to restrict the movement of the display unit 4 relative to the handheld part 1. In some specific embodiments, the first limiting member 57 is a combination of a locking pin and an elastic member, and the second limiting member 47 is a limiting groove. Alternatively, the first limiting member 57 can be a groove, and the second limiting member 47 can be a combination of a locking pin and an elastic member. When the combination is provided on the mounting surface 5, one end of the elastic member is fixedly connected to the mounting surface 5, one end of the locking pin is connected to the other end of the elastic member, and the groove matches and limits the locking pin. When the combination is provided on the display unit 4, one end of the elastic member is fixedly connected to the display unit 4, one end of the locking pin is connected to the other end of the elastic member, and the groove matches and limits the locking pin. The locking pin can compress the elastic element under pressure, and when there is no pressure, the elastic element releases its elastic force, so that the locking pin matches the first or second limiting element.

[0057] In some embodiments, the mounting part 5 is provided with a switch 56, and the handheld part 1 is provided with a control circuit board 6, and the switch 56 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 6.

[0058] In some embodiments, the display unit 4 further includes a third state relative to the handheld unit 1, the third state being between the first state and the second state, and the second limiting member 47 includes a limiting member 473 at a third position. When the display unit 4 is in the third state, the first limiting member 57 matches the limiting member 473 at the third position, and the display unit 4 simultaneously presses against the power switch 56.

[0059] In some embodiments, when the display unit 4 switches from a first state to a third state relative to the handheld unit 1, the gimbal camera 2 is in a non-operating state and is in a retracted state. When switching from the third state to the first state, the non-operating gimbal camera 2 is powered on and starts shooting or recording, or the gimbal camera 2 remains in a non-operating state. When switching from the third state to the second state, the non-operating gimbal camera 2 remains in a non-operating state, so that in the second state, the display unit 4 can accommodate and lock the gimbal camera 2. When switching from the second state to the third state, the non-operating gimbal camera 2 is powered on and starts shooting or recording, or the gimbal camera 2 remains in a non-operating state.

[0060] The third state is a state between the first and second states. When the display unit 4 switches from the first state to the third state relative to the handheld unit 1, the gimbal camera 2 is in a non-working state. At this time, the gimbal camera 2 is in a retracted state, which is in preparation for locking the gimbal camera 2. When the display unit 4 continues to slide upward, the display unit 4 locks the gimbal camera 2.

[0061] Specifically, the third state can be called the third position state. Switching from the first state to the third state can be called sliding from the first position state to the third position state. Switching from the third state to the second state can be called sliding from the third position state to the second position state, and vice versa.

[0062] The stowed state corresponds to the unfolded state. The stowed state is when the gimbal camera 2 is smaller in size, and the unfolded state is when the gimbal camera 2 is larger in size.

[0063] Specifically, the gimbal camera 2 includes a three-axis gimbal camera, a two-axis gimbal camera, and a one-axis gimbal camera. The three-axis gimbal camera includes three motors: the first motor is connected to the second motor via a first connecting arm; the second motor is connected to the third motor via a second connecting arm; and the third motor is connected to the camera 3. The first motor is connected to the handheld unit. When the gimbal is in the retracted state, the second motor drives the second connecting arm, the camera 3, the first connecting arm, and the third motor to move closer to the first motor, thus reducing the size of the gimbal camera 2. The two-axis gimbal camera includes two motors: the first motor is connected to the handheld unit and the first motor is connected to the second motor via a first connecting arm. When the gimbal camera is in the retracted state, the second connecting arm drives the second motor and the camera 3 to move closer to the first motor, thus reducing the size of the gimbal camera 2. The one-axis gimbal camera includes one motor, which is connected to the camera via a connecting arm. When the gimbal is in the retracted state, the motor drives the connecting arm and the camera to move closer to the handheld unit, thus reducing the size of the gimbal camera 2.

[0064] When the gimbal camera 2 is in the unfolded state, the second motor of the three-axis gimbal camera drives the first connecting arm, the second connecting arm, and the third motor to unfold the camera and move it away from the first motor; the first connecting arm of the two-axis gimbal camera drives the second motor, the second motor to unfold the camera and move it away from the first motor; the connecting arm of the one-axis gimbal camera unfolds the camera and moves it away from the handheld part.

[0065] In some embodiments, during the sliding of the display unit 4 relative to the mounting unit 5, the display surface 46 is parallel to the handheld unit 1.

[0066] First limiting members 57 are disposed on both sides of the mounting surface 5, first position limiting members 471 are disposed on both sides of the display part 4, second position limiting members 472 are located on both sides of the display part 4, and third position limiting members 473 are located on both sides of the display part 4. The first position limiting members 471 on both sides can simultaneously match the first limiting members 57 on both sides of the mounting surface 5, the second position limiting members 472 on both sides can simultaneously match the first limiting members 57 on both sides of the mounting surface 5, and the third position limiting members 473 on both sides can simultaneously match the first limiting members 57 on both sides of the mounting surface 5.

[0067] In some embodiments, the mounting part 5 is provided with a first magnet 53 and the display part 4 is provided with a second magnet 43, and the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 are magnetically repulsive. In the first state, the second magnet 43 of the display unit 4 is repelled by the first magnet 53 on the mounting unit 5 in a direction away from the gimbal camera 2. At this time, the second limiting member 47 at the first position of the display unit 4 is matched and connected with the first limiting member 57 of the mounting unit 5, so that the display unit 4 is fixed on the mounting unit 5. During the process of sliding from the first state to the second state, the second magnet 43 of the display unit 4 and the first magnet 53 of the mounting unit 5 repel each other, pushing the display unit 4 to slide closer to the gimbal camera 2. The slide continues until the display unit 4 and the handheld part 1 are in the second state. In the second state, the second limiting member 47 at the second position of the display unit 4 is matched and connected with the first limiting member 57 of the mounting unit 5, so that the display unit 4 is fixed on the mounting unit 5. At this time, the second magnet 43 of the display unit 4 is repelled by the first magnet 53 of the mounting unit 5. When the user slides the display unit 4 using the repulsive force between the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43, the display unit 4 automatically reaches the first state position or the second state position under the action of the repulsive force when the display unit 4 is slid to a certain position, which can be called the critical position.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first magnet 53 is disposed on both sides of the mounting portion 5, and the second magnet 43 is disposed on both sides of the display portion 4. In the first state, the display portion 4 is fixed in the first position of the mounting portion 5, and the second magnets 43 on both sides are simultaneously subjected to the repulsive force of the first magnet 53. In the second state, the display portion 4 is fixed in the second position of the mounting portion 5, and the second magnets 43 on both sides are simultaneously subjected to the repulsive force of the first magnet 53.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first magnet 53 is disposed in the sliding direction of the mounting part 5, and the second magnet 43 is disposed in the sliding direction of the display part 4. The first magnet 53 is an NS magnet, and the second magnet 43 is an SN magnet, or the first magnet 53 is an SN magnet and the second magnet 43 is an NS magnet. As shown in Figure 6, specifically, the end of the first magnet 53 closest to the gimbal camera 2 is the N pole, and the end furthest from the gimbal camera 2 is the S pole. Similarly, the end of the second magnet 43 closest to the gimbal camera 2 is the S pole, and the end furthest from the gimbal camera 2 is the N pole. When the display unit 4 is fixed in the first position of the mounting unit 5, the display unit 4 is in a first state relative to the handheld part 1, and the S poles of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 magnetically repel each other. When the display unit 4 is fixed in the second position of the mounting unit 5, the display unit 4 is in a second state relative to the handheld part 1, and the N poles of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 magnetically repel each other. The first and second positions are different. During the process of switching from the first position to the second position, a certain position is a critical position. After passing the critical position, the display unit 4 automatically reaches the second position under the repulsive force of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43. During the process of switching from the second position to the first position, after passing the critical position, the display unit 4 automatically reaches the first position under the repulsive force of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 are composite magnets, and the repulsive surfaces of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 are strong magnetic surfaces. Figures 15-18 show schematic diagrams of the structure of the first magnet 53 disposed on the handheld part 1 and the second magnet 43 disposed on the display part 4. In some embodiments, the end of the upper surface of the first magnet 53 furthest from the gimbal camera 2 is the N pole, and the corresponding lower surface is the S pole. The end of the upper surface of the first magnet 53 closest to the gimbal camera 2 is the S pole, and the corresponding lower surface is the N pole. After magnetization, on the surface of the first magnet 53 facing the display part 4, the end closest to the gimbal camera 2 is the S pole, and the end furthest from the gimbal camera 2 is the N pole. The upper surface of the second magnet 43, away from the gimbal camera 2, has an S pole at the end, and the corresponding lower surface has an N pole. The upper surface of the second magnet 43, closer to the gimbal camera 2, also has an S pole, and the corresponding lower surface has an N pole. After magnetization, the surface of the second magnet 43 opposite the mounting part 5 has an N pole at the end closer to the gimbal camera 2 and an S pole at the end farther from the gimbal camera 2. Applying a magnetic field along the magnetic field orientation direction to the magnet to achieve technical saturation is called magnetization. After magnetization, the repulsive surfaces of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43 form either a strong N pole magnetic surface or a strong S pole magnetic surface. When the display unit 4 is fixed in the first position of the mounting unit 5, the display unit 4 is in a first state relative to the handheld part 1, and the N-pole strong magnetic surface of the first magnet 53 and the N-pole strong magnetic surface of the second magnet 43 magnetically repel each other. When the display unit 4 is fixed in the second position of the mounting unit 5, the display unit 4 is in a second state relative to the handheld part 1, and the S-pole strong magnetic surface of the first magnet 53 and the S-pole strong magnetic surface of the second magnet 43 magnetically repel each other. The first position and the second position are different. A certain position during the process of switching from the first position to the second position is a critical position. After passing the critical position, the display unit 4 automatically reaches the second position under the action of the repulsive force of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43. During the process of switching from the second position to the first position, after passing the critical position, the display unit 4 automatically reaches the first position under the action of the repulsive force of the first magnet 53 and the second magnet 43.

[0071] The N and S poles described in this article can be interchanged, and no restriction is imposed here.

The third sliding part 54 is provided on both sides of the handheld part 1, and the fourth sliding part 44 is provided on both sides of the display part 4. The third sliding part 54 and the fourth sliding part 44 are matched and arranged.

[0073] In some embodiments, the third sliding part 54 or the fourth sliding part 44 is provided with a second stop to prevent the display part 4 from sliding off the handheld part 1.

[0074] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 5 has a through hole 58, and the control circuit board 6 is electrically connected to the display surface 46 via a signal line 49. The signal line 49 passes through the through hole 58 and is electrically connected to the display surface 46. The signal line 49 is a flexible flat cable or a wire assembly.

[0075] A handheld gimbal device includes a handheld gimbal camera according to any of the above embodiments, and a control unit that, in response to trigger control during the process of switching from a first state to a second state, causes the gimbal camera 2 to be in a non-operating state.

[0076] In one embodiment, a third state is further included, which is between the first state and the second state. When switching from the first state to the third state, the gimbal camera 2 is in a non-working state and is in a retracted state. When switching from the third state to the second state, the gimbal camera 2 remains in both the non-working and retracted states. When switching from the second state to the third state, the gimbal camera 2 is powered on and starts shooting or recording functions, or remains in a non-working state. When switching from the third state to the first state, the gimbal camera 2 remains powered on and starts shooting or recording functions, or remains in a non-working state.

[0077] In some embodiments, a switch unit is also included, which is electrically connected to the control unit. When switching from the first state to the third state, the display unit 4 presses against the switch unit to turn off the working state of the gimbal camera 2, and the gimbal camera 2 is in a retracted state; and / or, when switching from the second state to the third state, the display unit 4 presses against the switch unit to release the lock of the gimbal camera 2, and the gimbal camera 2 remains in a non-working state, or, the gimbal camera 2 is in a powered-on state and starts shooting or recording.

[0078] In some implementations, the switch is a switch 56.

One end of the sliding rod 12 is set on the sliding groove 13, and the other end is connected to the gimbal camera 2. By operating the part of the sliding rod 12 on the sliding groove 13, it slides along the sliding groove 13, thereby driving the gimbal camera 2 to slide into the receiving space 11.

[0092] A handheld gimbal device includes a handheld gimbal camera as described in any of the above embodiments, and a control unit that, in response to trigger control during the process of switching from a first state to a second state, causes the gimbal camera 2 to be in a non-operating state.

[0093] In some implementations, a third state is also included, which is between the first and second states. When switching from the first state to the third state, the gimbal camera is in a non-working state and is in a retracted state. When switching from the third state to the second state, the gimbal camera retains both the non-working and retracted states. When switching from the second state to the third state, the gimbal camera is powered on and starts shooting or recording functions, or remains in a non-working state. When switching from the third state to the first state, the gimbal camera remains powered on and starts shooting or recording functions, or remains in a non-working state.

[0094] Specifically, the third state can be called the third position state. Switching from the first state to the third state can be called sliding from the first position state to the third position state; switching from the second state to the third state can be called sliding from the second position state to the third position state, and vice versa.

[0095] In some embodiments, a switch unit is also included, which is electrically connected to the control unit. When switching from the first state to the third state, the gimbal camera 2 presses against the switch unit to turn off the working state of the gimbal camera 2, and the gimbal camera 2 is in a retracted state; and / or, when switching from the second state to the third state, the gimbal camera 2 presses against the switch unit to release the lock of the gimbal camera 2, and the gimbal camera remains in a non-working state, or the gimbal camera is powered on and starts shooting or recording functions.

[0096] In some implementations, an interaction module is also included. When the interaction module is triggered, the gimbal camera 2 switches from the first state to the second state or switches from the first state to the third state and then back to the second state; or, the gimbal camera 2 switches from the second state to the first state or switches from the second state to the third state and then back to the first state.

[0097] In some embodiments, the display unit 4 includes a display surface 46, which can be controlled by touch or by buttons.

[0098] In some embodiments, the display content of the display surface 46 of the display unit 4 can display the gimbal camera in the first state, the second state, or the third state as powered on, not working, gimbal camera recording mode, or gimbal camera shooting mode.
