[0025] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further illustrates the proposed solution:

[0026] Example 1

[0027] See appendix Figure 1-9 A ground-mountable tripod includes a pull rod assembly 1, a fixed base 2, a sliding sleeve 3, several support legs 4, and connecting rods 5. The pull rod assembly 1 comprises multiple pull rods connected in sequence. The fixed base 2 is installed at the bottom of the pull rod assembly 1. The sliding sleeve 3 is slidably fitted onto the pull rod assembly 1. One end of each support leg 4 is hinged to the sliding sleeve 3, allowing it to be opened for support or folded for easy storage. Each connecting rod 5 corresponds one-to-one with a support leg 4, with one end of the connecting rod 5 rotatably connected to the corresponding support leg 4 and the other end of the connecting rod 5 rotatably connected to the fixed base 2. The cooperation structure between the support legs 4 and the connecting rods 5 is prior art. For the specific working principle, please refer to the automatically deployable tripod disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN222230127 U.

[0028] The tripod also includes insert rods 6; the number of insert rods 6 is the same as that of connecting rods 5 and they correspond one-to-one.

[0029] In this embodiment, there are three of each of the supporting feet 4, connecting rods 5, and insert rods 6. The triangular support and ground-insertion structure provides high stability.

[0030] One end of the insertion rod 6 is a fixed end, and the other end of the insertion rod 6 is a movable end; the fixed end of the insertion rod 6 is hinged to the connecting rod 5 so that the movable end of the insertion rod 6 can be brought close to the connecting rod 5 or extended away from the connecting rod 5.

[0031] The connecting rod 5 is provided with a receiving part 51 for accommodating the insertion rod 6. When the insertion rod 6 is retracted, it can be hidden inside the receiving part 51.

[0032] A positioning mechanism is provided between the insertion rod 6 and the receiving part 51; the positioning mechanism includes a positioning protrusion 71 and a positioning groove 72; the positioning protrusion 71 is provided on one of the insertion rod 6 and the receiving part 51, and the positioning groove 72 is provided on the other of the insertion rod 6 and the receiving part 51; the positioning protrusion 71 falls into the positioning groove 72 when the insertion rod 6 is received in the receiving part 51.

[0033] Some tripod legs 4 can automatically open under the action of elastic components. During this process, the connecting rod 5 is pulled instantaneously, and the insertion rod 6 can easily be thrown out. If this is on a hard surface, the insertion rod 6 is easily damaged by impact.

[0034] This technical solution uses the cooperation of the positioning protrusion 71 and the positioning groove 72 to fix the insertion rod 6 when it is retracted, preventing the insertion rod 6 from falling out and being damaged or affecting the retraction of the support foot 4 during the rotation of the connecting rod 5. When the insertion rod 6 is not needed, it can also be fixed in the receiving part 51.

[0035] In this embodiment, the positioning protrusion 71 is hemispherical, and the shape of the positioning groove 72 corresponds to that of the positioning protrusion 71.

[0036] The receiving part 51 includes two side walls 52. The fixed end of the insertion rod 6 is fixed with a rotating shaft 8. The two ends of the rotating shaft 8 are rotatably connected to the two side walls 52 respectively. The space between the two side walls 52 is used to receive the insertion rod 6. The positioning mechanism includes two sets. The two sets of positioning mechanisms are respectively arranged between the two side walls 52 of the receiving part 51 and the two sides of the insertion rod 6.

[0037] The insertion rod 6 in this technical solution is fixed by two sets of positioning mechanisms, making it stable and secure.

[0038] In this embodiment, the positioning protrusion 71 is provided on the side wall 52 of the receiving part 51, and the positioning groove 72 is provided on both sides of the insertion rod 6.

[0039] The two side walls 52 of the receiving section 51 are provided with notches 53 to facilitate contact with the insert rod 6 contained inside and to rotate and unfold it.

[0040] The receiving part 51 is a strip-shaped hole or strip-shaped groove provided on the connecting rod 5.

[0041] In this embodiment, the receiving part 51 is a strip-shaped hole, which is easy to process and implement.

[0042] The movable end of the insertion rod 6 is tapered, making it easy to insert into the ground.

[0043] In this technical solution, a support leg 4 has a connecting rod 6 hinged to the connecting rod 5. The connecting rod 6 can rotate and unfold to be inserted into uneven ground such as mountains or muddy ground, thereby strengthening the fixation and improving the support stability of the support leg. Specifically, the opening angle of the support leg 4 is fixed by the connecting rod 5. After the support leg 4 is opened, the connecting rod 6 can rotate downward and unfold. When the movable end of the connecting rod 6 unfolds to a certain angle, its length is longer than the bottom surface of the support leg 4 when it is opened (the position in contact with the ground), and it can be inserted into the ground.

[0044] After use, the insertion rod 6 can be rotated and folded into the storage part 51. When the support leg 4 is closed, the insertion rod 6 and the connecting rod 5 are hidden between the support leg 4 and the pull rod assembly 1, making storage convenient.
