[0029] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0030] Please combine them together Figures 1 to 3 The camera cage provided by this utility model will now be described.

[0031] The camera cage is detachably connected to the first external accessory 1 and the second external accessory 2. The camera cage includes a cage body 1, which is provided with a first locking groove 11 and a second locking groove 12. The first locking groove 11 is engaged with the first accessory 2, and the second locking groove 12 is engaged with the second accessory 3.

[0032] It is understandable that the camera cage body 1 is provided with a first locking groove 11 and a second locking groove 12. The first locking groove 11 is engaged with the first accessory 2, and the second locking groove 12 is engaged with the second accessory 3. By providing the first locking groove 11 and the second locking groove 12, the camera cage body 1 can engage with a variety of camera accessories. Therefore, without replacing the camera cage body 1, it can be used with a variety of camera accessories, thus improving applicability.

[0033] In this embodiment, the rabbit cage body 1 includes a frame 13 and a snap-fit ​​assembly 14. The snap-fit ​​assembly 14 includes a mounting plate 141 and a snap-fit ​​plate 142. The mounting plate 141 is connected to the frame 13, and the snap-fit ​​plate 142 is fixed to the mounting plate 141. The mounting plate 141 can be integrally formed with the frame 13, or the mounting plate 141 can be fixed to the frame 13 by bolts.

[0034] The snap-fit ​​plate 142 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​groove 11, and the first accessory 2 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​part 21. The first snap-fit ​​part 21 can extend into the first snap-fit ​​groove 11 and snap-fit ​​with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​plate 142.

[0035] Specifically, the mounting plate 141 is fixed to the frame 13, or the mounting plate 141 is detachably connected to the frame 13. The snap-fit ​​plate 142 is fixed to the mounting plate 141 by bolts, and the snap-fit ​​plate 142 is spaced apart from the mounting plate 141. During the process of the first snap-fit ​​part 21 extending into the first snap-fit ​​groove 11, the first snap-fit ​​part 21 undergoes elastic deformation. When the first snap-fit ​​part 21 is fully inserted into the first snap-fit ​​groove 11, the elastic deformation of the first snap-fit ​​part 21 returns to its original state, so that the first snap-fit ​​part 21 can engage with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​plate 142, thereby fixing the first accessory 2 to the rabbit cage body 1.

[0036] Furthermore, multiple first engaging slots 11 are provided, with two on each side of the engaging plate 142. Multiple first engaging parts 21 are provided, each corresponding to one of the first engaging slots 11. By providing multiple first engaging slots 11 and first engaging parts 21, the first accessory 2 can be securely fixed to the rabbit cage body 1.

[0037] In one embodiment of a camera cage, the snap-fit ​​plate 142 is further provided with a guide groove 15, and the first accessory 2 is further provided with a guide portion 22. The guide portion 22 can move along the guide groove 15 and is used to guide the first accessory 2. During the process of the first engaging portion 21 engaging with the first engaging groove 11, the guide portion 22 can move along the guide groove 15, thereby guiding the movement direction of the first accessory 2 so that the first engaging portion 21 can enter the first engaging groove 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, the opening of the first engaging groove 11 is provided with a guide surface 111, which is used to guide the first engaging part 21 into the first engaging groove 11. By providing the guide surface 111, the first engaging part 21 can smoothly enter the first engaging groove 11.

[0039] In one embodiment of a camera cage, a snap-fit ​​plate 142 and a mounting plate 141 surround to form a second snap-fit ​​groove 12, and a second accessory 3 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​part 31, which can extend into the second snap-fit ​​groove 12 and snap-fit ​​with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​plate 142.

[0040] Specifically, pressing one end of the second engaging part 31 causes the second engaging part 31 to undergo elastic deformation. When the second engaging part 31 is placed in the second engaging groove 12 and one end of the second engaging part 31 is released, the elastic deformation of the second engaging part 31 returns to its original state, allowing the second engaging part 31 to engage with the inner wall of the engaging plate 142, thereby fixing the second accessory 3 to the rabbit cage body 1.

[0041] In this embodiment, two second engaging slots 12 are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the engaging plate 142, and two second engaging parts 31 are provided and corresponding to the second engaging slots 12 one by one. By providing multiple second engaging slots 12 and second engaging parts 31, the second accessory 3 can be securely fixed to the rabbit cage body 1.

[0042] In one embodiment of a camera cage, the latching plate 142 is further provided with a guide groove 16, and the second accessory 3 is further provided with a guide protrusion 32, which abuts against the groove wall of the guide groove 16. During the process of the second engaging part 31 engaging with the second engaging groove 12, the groove wall of the guide groove 16 can abut against the guide protrusion 32, thereby guiding the movement direction of the second engaging part 31, so that the second engaging part 31 can be smoothly engaged in the second engaging groove 12.

[0043] Furthermore, the guide groove 16 has an abutment groove 17 on its groove wall, and the guide protrusion 32 has an abutment protrusion 33, which abuts against the groove wall of the abutment groove 17. By providing the abutment groove 17 and the abutment protrusion 33, the second engaging part 31 and the engaging plate 142 will not move freely, so that the second engaging part 31 can be securely engaged in the second engaging groove 12.

[0044] In one embodiment of a camera cage, the cage body 1 is further provided with a threaded hole 100, which corresponds to the screw hole of the camera. The camera cage also includes a fastener that can threadedly connect the threaded hole 100 and the screw hole. Specifically, the fastener can be a screw, which threads the threaded hole 100 and the screw hole together, thereby fixing the cage body 1 to the camera.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent variations made in accordance with the claims of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
