Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photographic equipment technology, and in particular to a quick-folding photographic softbox. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional softbox designs often suffer from complex structures and inconvenient assembly and disassembly. Conventional softboxes typically use metal brackets secured with screws or elastic cords, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive to assemble, but also prone to loosening of parts and structural deformation during frequent use. This is especially problematic for outdoor shooting, where photographers often spend a significant amount of time setting up and disassembling the equipment, severely impacting their work efficiency.

[0003] Patent document CN220438727U discloses a quick-folding photographic softbox. It includes an adjustment mechanism, a photographic lamp, a bayonet, a base, a support mechanism, and a placement platform. The adjustment mechanism is located on the ground with its working end facing upwards. The placement platform is located on the working end of the adjustment mechanism, and the photographic lamp is placed on the placement platform. The base is movably mounted on the light outlet of the photographic lamp via the bayonet. The support mechanism is located on the side of the base away from the photographic lamp. This application uses the cooperation of the placement platform and the adjustment mechanism to fix the photographic lamp in place and adjust its height. The bayonet and base work together to install the support mechanism at the light outlet of the photographic lamp. The support mechanism allows the softbox to be quickly unfolded and folded, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly of the device and expanding its versatility.

[0004] However, this quick-folding photographic softbox is not easy to disassemble and fold quickly during use, reducing its portability when traveling. Utility Model Content

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] This invention provides a quick-folding photographic softbox, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This quick-folding photographic softbox, through the design of the folding component, allows for easy folding during use. When folding is required, pressing the buckle causes the buckle compression spring to return to the slot of the moving rod. By removing the support rod 1 connected to the first fixed block and the support rod 2 connected to the second fixed block, the first and second fixed blocks can rotate around the connecting rods 1 and 2. This rotation of the first and second fixed blocks folds the bracket, thus achieving the function of easy folding of the softbox, reducing assembly and disassembly time, improving portability, and reducing space occupation when not in use.

[0020] 2. This quick-folding photographic softbox features easy-to-replace components. When installing a softbox, the upper Velcro edge of the softbox is precisely aligned and pressed with the lower Velcro on the connecting bracket, allowing the softbox to be smoothly fixed to the internal frame. The upper and lower magnetic strips automatically attract each other, facilitating the replacement of the softbox with different materials. This reduces disassembly and installation time and improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description
