[0002] With the development of photography technology, users increasingly prefer to use cameras or camcorders to record life and beautiful scenery. Furthermore, shooting stick technology is becoming increasingly sophisticated, and shooting sticks are often used as auxiliary tools to achieve better shooting results.

[0003] However, when users are engaged in indoor or outdoor sports, such as skiing, they need to hold ski poles with both hands to maintain balance and glide. If users want to take pictures at this time, they will not be able to free their hands to operate the shooting structure because their hands are already occupied. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide a bracket for shooting equipment that facilitates users to take pictures while skiing or other sports.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a bracket for a shooting device, comprising: The first connecting mechanism is used for detachable connection with the shooting structure; A second connecting mechanism is connected to the first connecting mechanism, and the second connecting mechanism is used for detachable connection with an external object; The first connecting mechanism includes a connecting seat, a clamping member, and a locking member. The connecting seat is connected to the second connecting mechanism. The connecting seat has an external thread, and the locking member has an internal thread adapted to the external thread. The locking member is connected to the clamping member, and the clamping member is partially accommodated within the connecting seat. The locking member can rotate relative to the connecting seat to adjust the engagement length between the locking member and the connecting seat, and to allow the clamping member to move axially along the connecting seat with the locking member, thereby causing the clamping member to close or open.

[0006] Optionally, the clamping member is a tubular structure, and the size of the clamping member gradually increases from the end near the connecting seat to the end away from the connecting seat; The upper and / or lower ends of the clamping member are provided with notches.

[0007] Optionally, the outer periphery of the clamping member is provided with an annular groove, and the inner side of the locking member is provided with a protrusion adapted to the annular groove, the protrusion being accommodated in the annular groove; The locking member can rotate relative to the connecting seat to adjust the engagement length between the locking member and the connecting seat, so that the locking member drives the clamping member to move along the axial direction of the connecting seat through the protrusion.

[0008] Optionally, the outer wall of the locking member is provided with anti-slip texture, or the outer periphery of the locking member is covered with an anti-slip member, the outer wall of the anti-slip member being provided with anti-slip texture.

[0009] Optionally, the first connecting mechanism further includes a connector located on the inner bottom wall of the connecting seat, and the outer side wall of the connector has a locking thread; The locking thread is a 1 / 4-inch thread or a 3 / 8-inch thread.

[0010] Optionally, the first connecting mechanism further includes an elastic element, which is sleeved outside the connector and is used to apply an elastic resistance force to the shooting structure.

[0011] Optionally, the second connecting mechanism includes a first hoop, a second hoop, and a fastener. The first hoop is connected to the connecting seat. The first hoop and the second hoop are used to hold external objects tightly. The fastener is used to lock the first hoop and the second hoop.

[0012] Optionally, one end of the first hoop is hinged to one end of the second hoop, and the fastener is used to lock the other end of the first hoop to the other end of the second hoop.

[0013] Optionally, the second connecting mechanism further includes a sleeve, which is disposed between the first hoop and the second hoop, and the sleeve has a partition opening for holding external objects tightly. The fastener locks the other end of the first hoop and the other end of the second hoop, so that the first hoop and the second hoop hug the sleeve, thereby causing the sleeve to close at the partition opening.

[0014] Optionally, the inner wall of the sleeve is provided with a raised strip.

[0015] Optionally, the outer wall of the sleeve is provided with a positioning element, and the inner wall of the first hoop is provided with a positioning groove that is adapted to the positioning element.

[0016] This utility model has the following advantages: When using the shooting device bracket, the second connecting mechanism is connected to an external object such as a ski pole, and then the shooting structure is installed on the first connecting mechanism. Specifically, after the second connecting mechanism is connected to the external object such as a ski pole, the shooting structure is inserted into the clamping member. Then, the locking member is rotated relative to the connecting seat to increase the engagement length between the locking member and the connecting seat, and the clamping member moves along the axial direction of the connecting seat with the locking member. During this process, the clamping member gradually closes and clamps the shooting structure, so that during skiing and other sports, photography and other operations can still be performed through the shooting structure without holding the shooting structure. When the sports are over and the shooting structure needs to be removed, the locking member is rotated relative to the connecting seat in the opposite direction to reduce the engagement length between the locking member and the connecting seat, and the clamping member moves along the axial direction of the connecting seat with the locking member in the opposite direction to the previous movement. During this process, the clamping member gradually opens to release the shooting structure, so that the shooting structure can be removed from the clamping member. The shooting device bracket of this application makes the shooting structure easy to assemble and disassemble, and facilitates shooting during skiing and other sports. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following will mainly describe the specific structure of the bracket used for shooting equipment.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a bracket for a shooting device includes a first connecting mechanism 100 and a second connecting mechanism 200. The first connecting mechanism 100 is detachably connected to the shooting structure, and the second connecting mechanism 200 is connected to the first connecting mechanism 100 and detachably connected to an external object. The first connecting mechanism 100 includes a connecting seat 110, a clamping member 120, and a locking member 130. The connecting seat 110 is connected to the second connecting mechanism 200 and has an external thread 111. The locking member 130 has an internal thread 132 that matches the external thread 111. The locking member 130 is connected to the clamping member 120, which is partially housed within the connecting seat 110. The locking member 130 can rotate relative to the connecting seat 110 to adjust the engagement length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110, and to allow the clamping member 120 to move axially along the connecting seat 110 with the locking member 130, thereby causing the clamping member 120 to close or open, and thus to clamp or release the shooting structure. It should be noted that the second connecting mechanism 200 refers to a structure that connects to an external object, allowing the shooting equipment to be mounted on the external object using a bracket. The external object can be a user's motion device. In this embodiment, the connecting seat 110 has a cavity with an open top, and the clamping member 120 is partially accommodated within the cavity of the connecting seat 110. Both the locking member 130 and the clamping member 120 are tubular structures. The external object is a ski pole; in other embodiments, it can be other suitable devices. The shooting structure is a shooting stick or a shooting device. The shooting stick is a selfie stick, etc., and the shooting device is a camera, etc.

[0025] When using the shooting equipment bracket, the second connecting mechanism 200 is connected to an external object such as a ski pole, and then the shooting structure is installed on the first connecting mechanism 100. Specifically, after the second connecting mechanism 200 is connected to the external object such as a ski pole, the shooting structure is inserted into the clamping member 120. Then, the locking member 130 is rotated relative to the connecting seat 110 to increase the engagement length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110, and the clamping member 120 moves axially along the connecting seat 110 with the locking member 130. During this process, the clamping member 120 gradually closes and clamps and fixes itself. The shooting structure allows for photography and videography during activities such as skiing without the need to hold the device. When the activity ends and the shooting structure needs to be removed, the locking member 130 is rotated in the opposite direction to the connecting seat 110, reducing the screw length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110. This causes the clamping member 120 to move along the axis of the connecting seat 110 in the opposite direction to the locking member 130. During this process, the clamping member 120 gradually opens to release the shooting structure, allowing it to be removed. The shooting device bracket of this application facilitates easy assembly and disassembly of the shooting structure and makes it convenient for shooting during activities such as skiing.

[0026] Further, refer to Figure 3 The clamping member 120 has a tubular structure, and its size gradually increases from the end near the connecting seat 110 to the end away from the connecting seat 110; in actual use, refer to Figure 3 The end closer to the connecting seat 110 refers to the lower end of the clamping member 120, and the end farther from the connecting seat 110 refers to the upper end of the clamping member 120. The size of the clamping member 120 refers to its outer diameter. Specifically, in use, when it is necessary to install the shooting structure, the shooting structure is inserted into the clamping member 120. Then, as the locking member 130 rotates relative to the connecting seat 110, the locking member 130 drives the clamping member 120 to move downward along the axial direction of the connecting seat 110. This causes the inner sidewall of the connecting seat 110 to gradually abut against the outer sidewall of the clamping member 120, which has a larger outer diameter, thereby causing the clamping member 120 to gradually close and clamp the shooting structure.

[0027] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The clamping member 120 has a notch 121 at its upper and / or lower ends. In this embodiment, both the upper and lower ends of the clamping member 120 have notches 121, so that as the locking member 130 rotates relative to the connecting seat 110, causing the clamping member 120 to move downward along the axial direction of the connecting seat 110, the clamping member 120 gradually closes at the notch 121, reducing the internal space of the clamping member 120, thereby enabling the clamping member 120 to reliably clamp the shooting structure. The notches 121 at the upper and lower ends of the clamping member 120 can have at most one connection, forming a partition for the clamping member 120.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 The number of notches 121 is two or more. In this embodiment, the upper end of the clamping member 120 has three notches 121 and the lower end of the clamping member 120 has four notches 121. In other embodiments, the upper or lower end of the clamping member 120 may have more or fewer notches 121, so that the clamping member 120 can reliably clamp the shooting structure.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The clamping member 120 has an annular groove 122 on its outer periphery, and the locking member 130 has a protrusion 131 on its inner side that matches the annular groove 122. The protrusion 131 is accommodated in the annular groove 122. The locking member 130 can rotate relative to the connecting seat 110 to adjust the engagement length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110, so that the locking member 130 drives the clamping member 120 to move axially along the connecting seat 110 through the protrusion 131. Specifically, with this configuration, the locking member 130 can rotate relative to the clamping member 120, but when the locking member 130 rotates relative to the connecting seat 110, it can drive the clamping member 120 to move axially along the connecting seat 110 through the protrusion 131. Furthermore, before the connecting seat 110 abuts against the upper end of the clamping member 120 to lock the clamping member 120 (that is, before the clamping member 120 clamps and locks the shooting structure), the clamping member 120 can rotate relative to the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110 to adjust the angle.

[0030] refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the protrusion 131 is an annular protrusion 131, which is located at the upper end of the inner sidewall of the locking member 130, and the internal thread 132 is located at the lower end of the inner sidewall of the locking member 130.

[0031] In one embodiment, the outer side wall of the locking member 130 is provided with anti-slip texture 141, thereby reducing the probability of slippage when the locking member 130 is rotated relative to the connecting seat 110.

[0032] refer to Figure 3 In another embodiment, an anti-slip member 140 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the locking member 130, and the outer side wall of the anti-slip member 140 is provided with anti-slip texture 141. The anti-slip member 140 may be, but is not limited to, being fixedly sleeved on the locking member 130.

[0033] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first connecting mechanism 100 also includes a connector 150, which is located on the inner bottom wall of the connecting seat 110. The outer wall of the connector 150 has a locking thread 151. Specifically, the connector 150 is used for threaded connection with the camera structure, such as threaded connection with the camera, so as to achieve dual positioning of the camera, making the positioning more reliable and preventing the camera and other imaging structures from detaching during user movement.

[0034] Furthermore, the locking thread 151 is a 1 / 4-inch thread or a 3 / 8-inch thread, which can be used to fit commonly used cameras. Understandably, other thread sizes can also be used depending on the actual usage requirements.

[0035] refer to Figure 3The first connecting mechanism 100 also includes an elastic element 160, which is sleeved on the connector 150. The elastic element 160 is used to apply an elastic supporting force to the shooting structure. With this configuration, when the camera or other shooting structure is screwed onto the connector 150, even if it is not screwed to the very bottom of the connector 150, the elastic element 160 can still apply an elastic supporting force to the camera or other shooting structure, ensuring a more stable and reliable installation. The elastic element 160 also prevents loosening and provides shock absorption and cushioning functions.

[0036] In this embodiment, the elastic element 160 is an elastic washer; in other embodiments, the elastic element 160 may also be a spring.

[0037] refer to Figures 1 to 3 The second connecting mechanism 200 includes a first hoop 210, a second hoop 220, and a fastener 230. The first hoop 210 is connected to the connecting seat 110. The first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220 are used to hold external objects such as ski poles. The fastener 230 is used to lock the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220, thereby reliably positioning the ski poles and other external objects. Specifically, the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220 can form a clamp or a clamp-like structure to hold and position external objects. The fastener 230 can be, but is not limited to, a bolt.

[0038] Furthermore, the first hoop 210 has an extension 211, which is connected to the connecting seat 110. Specifically, the extension 211 is integrally formed with the first hoop 210.

[0039] refer to Figure 2 The extension 211 is connected to the connecting seat 110 by bolts or other fasteners. Furthermore, the bolt passes through the extension 211 and the connecting seat 110, and partially extends into the interior of the connecting seat 110. The end of the bolt extending into the connecting seat 110 can serve as a connector 150. The bolt is threadedly connected to the connecting seat 110, and the bolt can also be threadedly connected to the extension 211.

[0040] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 One end of the first hoop 210 is hinged to one end of the second hoop 220, and the fastener 230 is used to lock the other end of the first hoop 210 and the other end of the second hoop 220.

[0041] refer to Figures 1 to 3The second connecting mechanism 200 also includes a sleeve 240, which is disposed between the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220. The sleeve 240 has a partition opening 241 and is used to hold an external object. The fastener 230 locks the other end of the first hoop 210 and the other end of the second hoop 220 so that the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220 hold the sleeve 240, thereby causing the sleeve 240 to close at the partition opening 241, and thus causing the sleeve 240 to hold the external object.

[0042] refer to Figure 1 The inner wall of the sleeve 240 is provided with a protrusion 242; specifically, the protrusion 242 enables the sleeve 240 to more reliably grip and abut against the external object, making the fixation of the external object more reliable and stable; in this embodiment, the protrusion 242 is an annular protrusion 242. Furthermore, there are multiple protrusions 242, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the sleeve 240.

[0043] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer wall of the sleeve 240 is provided with a positioning element 243, and the inner wall of the first hoop 210 is provided with a positioning groove 212 that matches the positioning element 243. Specifically, when installing the sleeve 240, the positioning element 243 of the sleeve 240 is aligned with the positioning groove 212 of the first hoop 210 to achieve accurate and reliable installation of the sleeve 240.

[0044] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the sleeve 240 is 12mm to 24mm. For example, the inner diameter of the sleeve 240 is 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, 24mm, etc. Multiple sleeves 240 with different inner diameters can be equipped at the same time. When using the sleeve, the corresponding size of the sleeve 240 can be selected according to the diameter of the ski pole.

[0045] The operation process of the above-mentioned shooting equipment bracket is roughly as follows: When using a shooting equipment bracket, select a suitable sleeve 240 and align the positioning part 243 of the sleeve 240 with the positioning groove 212 of the first hoop 210. Then, install the sleeve 240 onto the first hoop 210 and then put the first hoop 210 onto an external object such as a ski pole. Then, rotate the second hoop 220 relative to the first hoop 210 to close the second hoop 220 relative to the first hoop 210. Then, lock the other end of the first hoop 210 and the other end of the second hoop 220 with the fastener 230 so that the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220 hug the sleeve 240, so that the sleeve 240 closes at the partition 241, thereby making the sleeve 240 hug the external object. After the second connecting mechanism 200 is connected to an external object such as a ski pole, the shooting structure is inserted into the clamping member 120. Then, the locking member 130 is rotated relative to the connecting seat 110 to increase the engagement length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110, and the clamping member 120 moves downward along the axis of the connecting seat 110 with the locking member 130. During this process, the clamping member 120 gradually closes at the notch 121 and clamps and fixes the shooting structure, so that in sports such as skiing, it is still possible to take pictures and videos through the shooting structure without holding the shooting structure. When the exercise ends and the shooting structure needs to be removed, the locking member 130 is rotated in the opposite direction to the previous rotation relative to the connecting seat 110 to reduce the engagement length between the locking member 130 and the connecting seat 110. This causes the clamping member 120 to move along the axis of the connecting seat 110 in the opposite direction to the previous rotation, along with the locking member 130. During this process, the clamping member 120 gradually opens to release the shooting structure, allowing it to be removed from the clamping member 120. Then, the other end of the first hoop 210 and the other end of the second hoop 220 are unlocked via the fastener 230. The second hoop 220 is then rotated relative to the first hoop 210 to open it relative to the first hoop 210, allowing the first hoop 210 and the second hoop 220 to loosen the sleeve 240. Finally, the ski poles are removed from the sleeve 240.

[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent device transformations made based on the contents of this utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
