Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of camera equipment technology, and in particular relates to a stabilizer adjustment mechanism with recording and retrieval functions. Background Technology

[0002] In today's photography industry, camera stabilizers have become indispensable tools, widely used in film and television production, news reporting, and social media creation to reduce camera shake and ensure stable and smooth footage. With the continuous development of photographic technology, photographers need to flexibly switch between various lenses during shooting to meet diverse shooting needs.

[0003] Currently, existing camera stabilizers on the market typically require manual adjustment of the knobs or sliders on the roll, pitch, and yaw axes after lens replacement due to changes in lens weight, center of gravity, and other parameters. This is done to alter the position of the camera and lens assembly on the stabilizer. Fine-tuning is then performed repeatedly, using the stabilizer's level or additional balance testing tools, until the camera and lens are balanced across all axes. However, in shooting scenarios such as sports event filming, wildlife photography, and wedding documentary filming, where different lenses are needed, the excessive adjustment time can cause photographers to miss the optimal shooting opportunity. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In response to the above situation, in order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies that rely on manual adjustment during use.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a stabilizer adjustment mechanism with recording and retrieval functions, including a support frame and an adjustment mechanism, wherein the adjustment mechanism is disposed at the top of the support frame.

[0006] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a support block one, a bracket one, a support block two, and a bracket two. The support block one is fixed to the upper end of the support frame, and a sliding groove one is provided on the support block one. One end of the bracket one is slidably disposed inside the sliding groove one. The support block two is fixed to the other end of the bracket one, and a sliding groove two is provided on the support block two. The end of the bracket one near the support block two and one end of the bracket two are both slidably disposed inside the sliding groove two.

[0007] Furthermore, the first support block has a rotating groove, through which a rotating shaft passes, and a gear is mounted on the rotating shaft. One end of the rotating shaft is poweredly connected to the power shaft of the first servo motor, which is fixed to the outside of the first support block. The second support block has a rotating groove, through which a rotating shaft passes, and a gear is mounted on the rotating shaft. One end of the rotating shaft is poweredly connected to the power shaft of the second servo motor, which is fixed to the outside of the second support block. The lower end of the bracket away from the second support block has a hinge tooth that matches the gear and the gear. The lower end of the bracket has a hinge tooth that matches the gear. The upper end of the bracket has symmetrical slots.

[0008] Furthermore, a microprocessor is provided on the support frame, and the microprocessor is electrically connected to the display via wires, and the display is fixed to the side of the support frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the first servo motor is electrically connected to the microprocessor via a wire, and the second servo motor is electrically connected to the microprocessor via a wire.

[0010] Furthermore, the first bracket is L-shaped, and there are three sets of the first bracket, which are connected end to end by the second sliding groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the end of the bracket one that is away from the support block two is T-shaped, and the sliding groove one and the sliding groove two are adapted to the bracket one.

[0012] Furthermore, the second bracket is T-shaped and is compatible with the second slide groove.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model after adopting the above structure are as follows:

[0014] The camera lens accessories are replaced sequentially for center of gravity calibration. The absolute encoder equipped with the servo motor records the total number of revolutions and the specific position information within each revolution. The operator records and saves the calibration parameters through the operation display interface. The microprocessor coordinates with servo motor one and servo motor two to drive bracket one to slide along the slide groove one of support block one, and bracket two to slide along the slide groove two of support block two, replacing the traditional manual operation of turning knobs and sliding brackets. When the load changes due to the replacement of lenses or other accessories, resulting in a change in weight distribution, manual recalibration is unnecessary, reducing the operator's workload, avoiding errors from manual adjustments, ensuring the accuracy of center of gravity adjustment, effectively counteracting instability caused by external vibrations and attitude changes, and significantly improving the stabilizer's adaptability to load changes and image stability.

[0028] Among them, the support block 1 2 has a rotating groove 1 6 inside, and a rotating shaft 1 7 passes through the rotating groove 1 6. A gear 1 8 is provided on the rotating shaft 1 7. One end of the rotating shaft 1 7 is poweredly connected to the power shaft of the servo motor 1 9. The servo motor 1 9 is fixed to the outside of the support block 1 2. The support block 2 4 has a rotating groove 2 10 inside, and a rotating shaft 2 11 passes through the rotating groove 2 10. A gear 2 12 is provided on the rotating shaft 2 11. One end of the rotating shaft 2 11 is poweredly connected to the power shaft of the servo motor 2 15. The servo motor 2 15 is fixed to the outside of the support block 2 4.

The operation of servo motor 9 and servo motor 15 is controlled by a microprocessor, driving bracket 3 to slide smoothly along the slide groove 1 on support block 2, and controlling bracket 5 to slide synchronously along the slide groove 2 on support block 4. This improves operational accuracy and efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity and error probability of manual operation.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, a microprocessor is provided on the support frame 1. The microprocessor is electrically connected to the display 14 via a wire. The display 14 is fixed to the side of the support frame 1.

The absolute encoder equipped with the servo motor can record the total number of revolutions of the motor and the specific position information within each revolution. The operator records and saves the calibration parameters through the operation display 14 interface.

[0036] When the equipment load changes due to the replacement of accessories such as camera lenses, the operator can restore the original parameters and then switch to the preset parameters through the human-machine interface on the display screen. The microprocessor controls the rotation of servo motor 9 and servo motor 15, driving bracket 3 to slide smoothly along the slide groove 1 of support block 2, while simultaneously controlling bracket 5 to move synchronously along the slide groove 2 of support block 4. This improves work efficiency and ensures the accuracy and consistency of adjustments.
