Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of neck-mounted camera bracket technology, and in particular to a neck-mounted camera bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the improvement of people's living standards, photography is becoming increasingly popular for recording people's lives. A neckband mount has recently appeared on the market, which can be fixed to external components such as the neck or clothing, and can also connect to shooting devices such as mobile phones or cameras. When not in use, the shooting device can be fixed to an external component via the neckband mount, freeing up the hands.

[0003] Existing neck braces typically include a mounting base and a fixing component. The mounting base has a mounting groove with a limiting block inside. The fixing component includes a connecting base that can be accommodated in the mounting groove and rotate relative to it. The connecting base has a limiting groove located on the rotation path of the limiting block. Rotation of the connecting base causes the limiting groove to align with and engage with the limiting block, thereby locking the fixing component onto the mounting base. To unlock, simply rotate the connecting base again to disengage the limiting groove from the spring-loaded fastener, thus separating the fixing component from the mounting base.

[0004] The problem with the above structure is that the connector can rotate freely relative to the mounting slot when subjected to force, lacking sufficient constraints. It may rotate uncontrollably due to external forces, affecting the stability of the connection. For example, in sports involving running and jumping, the connector may rotate relative to the mounting slot. Utility Model Content

[0055] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] This application provides a neck brace 1000 for assisting in fixing photographic equipment, see reference. Figure 1 - Figure 3 The neck bracket 1000 includes a mounting base 10, a fixing mechanism 20, a locking buckle 30, and a first spring 33. The fixing mechanism 20 is detachably connected to the mounting base 10. The fixing mechanism 20 is used to connect a shooting device. The fixing mechanism 20 includes a connecting base 21, which includes a first wall 211 and a second wall 212 surrounding the first wall 211. A snap-fit ​​block 212a is provided on the second wall 212. The mounting base 10 includes a mounting groove 11, which faces the first wall 211. The groove wall of the mounting groove 11 has a boss 111, which is spaced apart from the bottom of the groove to form a limiting space 12. When the connecting base 21 is accommodated in the mounting groove 11, the connecting base 21 can rotate relative to the first wall 211 so that the snap-fit ​​block 212a is accommodated in the limiting space 12. The bottom of the mounting groove 11 has a first direction (e.g., Figure 1 The guide groove 13 extends upward (as shown in the Y direction); the first wall 211 has a receiving groove 211a, and the groove wall of the receiving groove 211a has a notch 211c.

[0057] The locking element 30 includes a pressure-applying element and a locking post 32 passing through the guide groove 13. One end of the pressure-applying element protrudes outside the mounting base 10 in a first direction. The locking post 32 is connected between the two ends of the pressure-applying element. A first spring 33 is connected to the locking element 30 to store energy by compressing deformation when the locking post 32 disengages from the notch 211c, and to reset the locking post 32 when the energy is released. The first direction is perpendicular to the opening orientation of the mounting groove 11. The locking element 30 is slidably connected to the mounting base 10 in the first direction so that when the locking block 212a is accommodated in the limiting space 12, the locking post 32 can engage with the notch 211c. A blocking block 121 is provided on the groove wall between the boss 111 and the bottom of the mounting groove 11. The blocking block 121 is located on the rotation path of the locking block 212a to restrict the rotation of the connecting base 21 when the locking block 212a rotates to contact the blocking block 121.

[0058] The neck bracket 1000 mounting base 10 and fixing mechanism 20 of this application are easy to install and disassemble, effectively reducing user misoperation, and ensuring connection stability after locking.

[0059] Specifically, when the connecting seat 21 is installed in the mounting slot 11, it can make the limiting space 12 engage or disengage with the snap block 212a through a single rotation, thereby locking or unlocking the connecting seat 21 and the mounting seat 10. The operation is simple and the locking or unlocking process is relatively stable, reducing the possibility of misoperation.

[0060] Furthermore, to further prevent the snap-fit ​​block 212a from detaching from the limiting space 12, a guide groove 13 extending in a first direction perpendicular to the opening of the mounting groove 11 is provided at the bottom of the groove; it is understood that the second direction may also be set at an angle to the first direction, which is not limited here. The first wall 211 is provided with a receiving groove 211a, and two protrusions 211b are provided on the groove wall of the receiving groove 211a. The two protrusions 211b are spaced apart to form a notch 211c; the neck bracket 1000 also includes a locking member 30, which includes a pressure member 31 and a locking post 32 passing through the guide groove 13. One end of the pressure member 31 in the first direction is exposed outside the mounting base 10, and the locking post 32 is connected between the two ends of the pressure member 31; wherein, the locking member 30 is slidably connected to the mounting base 10 in the first direction so that when the snap-fit ​​block 212a is placed in the limiting space 12, the locking post 32 can engage with the notch 211c. With this configuration, when the locking block 212a is located in the limiting space 12, the locking post 32 engages with the notch 211c, restricting the rotation of the connecting seat 21 and preventing the locking block 212a from detaching from the limiting space 12. One end of the pressure applying element 31 protrudes outside the mounting base 10, allowing the user to control the pressure applying element 31 to separate the locking post 32 from the notch 211c, thereby releasing the rotation restriction on the connecting seat 21. The guide groove 13 allows the locking post 32 to move in the required direction, preventing the locking post 32 from being misaligned and jamming with the notch 211c.

[0061] The first spring 33 is connected to the locking element 30 to store energy through compression deformation when the locking pin 32 disengages from the notch 211c, and to reset the locking pin 32 upon energy release. The first spring 33 ensures that the locking element 30 always tends to move outward. The user can unlock the locking element 30 by applying pressure to overcome the elastic force, and reset the locking element 30 by the elastic force of the first spring 33 itself when no force is applied, reducing the number of operation steps and making the operation faster and more efficient.

[0062] In addition, this application provides a blocking block 121 on the groove wall between the boss 111 and the bottom of the mounting groove 11. The blocking block 121 is located on the rotation path of the snap-fit ​​block 212a, so as to restrict the rotation of the connecting seat 21 when the snap-fit ​​block 212a rotates to contact the blocking block 121. Thus, the blocking block 121 can constrain the rotation of the connecting seat 21 relative to the mounting groove 11, preventing the connecting seat 21 from moving unexpectedly under movement or vibration, thereby improving the connection stability between the fixing component and the mounting seat 10. Furthermore, the setting of the blocking block 121 also ensures that the locking block 212a can only rotate in one direction and be placed into the limiting space 12, simplifying the usage steps, reducing user errors, and improving assembly efficiency. In addition, the blocking block 121 can also prevent the connecting seat 21 from continuing to rotate in the locking direction after locking, which effectively prevents the connecting seat 21 from continuing to move when the user applies excessive force or rotates too fast, avoids the notch 211c from exerting a reaction force on the locking post 32, reduces the risk of damage to the locking post 32, improves the accuracy of user operation, and makes the entire installation and disassembly process safer.

[0063] There are many ways to set the notch 211c. It can be directly formed in the groove wall of the receiving groove 211a. The notch 211c extends in the first direction to form a certain depth. Of course, the notch 211c can also be set to directly penetrate the connecting seat 21. The setting method of the notch 211c is not limited here.

[0064] Preferably, in one embodiment, two protrusions 211b are provided on the wall of the receiving groove 211a, and the two protrusions 211b are spaced apart to form a notch 211c. In this way, during the installation of the connecting seat 21 onto the mounting seat 10 and its rotation, the locking pin 32 can be smoothly inserted into the notch 211c along the wall of the receiving groove 211a using the protrusions 211b. That is, when the user locks, he only needs to insert the connecting seat 21 into the mounting seat 10 and rotate the connecting seat 21 to complete the locking, without the need to operate the pressure member 31, thus making the locking efficiency faster.

[0065] In one embodiment, the mounting groove 11 has two opposing bosses 111 on its groove wall. The two bosses 111 and the bottom of the mounting groove 11 are spaced apart to form two limiting spaces 12. Two locking blocks 212a are provided, and the two locking blocks 212a are respectively accommodated in the two limiting spaces 12. In this way, providing two locking blocks 212a can increase the contact area between the connecting seat 21 and the mounting seat 10, making the fixing mechanism 20 more evenly stressed, improving the stability of the connection between the two, and preventing the connection from loosening during user movement.

[0066] It is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, when the connecting seat 21 is installed into the mounting slot 11, the two snap-fit ​​blocks 212a need to be misaligned with the two protrusions 111 to allow the connecting seat 21 to be smoothly placed into the mounting slot 11. Subsequently, the snap-fit ​​blocks 212a are screwed into the limiting space 12 by unidirectional rotation to achieve connection. This setting allows the user to clearly see whether the connecting seat 21 and the mounting seat 10 are properly engaged through specific operating steps, preventing the risk of the fixing mechanism 20 falling off due to misoperation.

[0067] In one embodiment, two notches 211c are provided, and the two notches 211c are arranged opposite each other in the first direction. In this way, when the user installs the connector 21 into the mounting slot 11, there is no need to pay special attention to whether the locking post 32 is on the one-way rotation path of the notch 211c. The user only needs to place it into the mounting slot 11, and one of the notches 211c will naturally cooperate with the locking post 32 to achieve locking. This simplifies the operation steps and improves the convenience of use.

[0068] There are many ways to connect the mounting base 10 to the external components, and several embodiments are illustrated below.

[0069] In one embodiment, the neck brace 1000 includes a clamping assembly (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the mounting base 10. The clamping assembly can be connected to external components, such as clamping it to a desktop to fix the mounting base 10, or clamping it to a wearable item such as a backpack, shoulder strap, or hat to fix the mounting base 10.

[0070] In another embodiment, the neck brace 1000 includes a magnet (not shown) mounted on the mounting base 10 and magnetically connected to an external component, for example, made of metal. Specifically, the magnet may be a magnet.

[0071] In another embodiment, the neck brace 1000 further includes a neck hanging component 40, which includes a first end 41 and a second end 42 disposed opposite to each other in its length direction. Both the first end 41 and the second end 42 are connected to the mounting base 10 so that the mounting base 10 and the fixing mechanism 20 can be hung around the user's neck. The first end 41 is detachably connected to the mounting base 10. The ease of installation and detachment of the first end 41 from the mounting base 10 facilitates wearing the bra and improves the user experience.

[0072] Specifically, the first end 41 is detachably connected to the mounting base 10, allowing the user to change the size of the wear hole by separating the first end 41 from the mounting base 10, thus improving adaptability.

[0073] In this application, the fixed connection between the second end 42 and the mounting base 10 can be a plug-in connection, a snap-fit ​​connection, or a threaded connection, etc., and is not limited here.

[0074] The neck strap 40 can be made of different materials. For example, the neck strap 40 can be made of a flexible material to allow the user to adjust the shape of the neck strap 40 according to their own neck circumference. The width of the middle section 43 can be greater than the width of the two ends to increase the contact area with the neck.

[0075] Preferably, the neck strap 40 includes a middle section 43 connecting the two ends, and the middle section 43 is provided with a pattern 431. When the middle section 43 comes into contact with the neck, the pattern 431 can increase friction and reduce swaying.

[0076] Combination Figure 4 , Figure 10 as well as Figure 15 There are many ways to detachably connect the neck hanger 40 to the mounting base 10, which are illustrated below through several embodiments.

[0077] In Example 1, as Figure 5 - Figure 9 As shown, the outer surface of the mounting base 10 is provided with an opening 14 communicating with the internal space of the mounting base 10 and a first through hole 15. The opening 14 is in the second direction (e.g., Figure 6 (As shown in the X direction) Extends to form a first edge portion 141 and a second edge portion 142, a first through hole 15 is located on the side of the first edge portion 141 away from the second edge portion 142; a first end 41 passes through the first through hole 15, and the first end 41 is provided with a snap-fit ​​portion 411;

[0078] The neck brace 1000 also includes a first locking mechanism 50. The first locking mechanism 50 includes a push seat 51 and a limiting seat 52. The push seat 51 is movably connected to the opening 14 in a second direction. The limiting seat 52 is installed in the internal space and connected to the push seat 51. The limiting seat 52 has a fastening part 521 opposite to the locking part 411. When the push seat 51 moves to the first edge 141, the locking part 411 engages with the fastening part 521; when the push seat 51 moves to the second edge 142, the locking part 411 disengages from the fastening part 521. In this embodiment, the neck brace 1000 achieves quick unlocking of the neck brace 40 by pushing the push seat 51 to switch between the first edge 141 and the second edge 142, facilitating user wearing and improving the user experience.

[0079] Specifically, the other end of the neck brace 40 is provided with a locking part 411. After the locking part 411 is placed in the first through hole 15, it can cooperate with the fastening part 521 to lock. At this time, the push seat 51 is located at the first edge 141. When unlocking is required, the user can push the push seat 51 in the opposite direction to move the push seat 51 to the second edge 142, and drive the limiting seat 52 to move, so that the fastening part 521 and the locking part 411 are separated and unlocked. The other end of the neck brace 40 can be separated from the mounting base 10, so as to facilitate the user to remove and subsequently wear the neck brace 1000. It can be seen that the neck brace 1000 has stronger wear adaptability and better user experience.

[0080] In this embodiment, the opening 14 can be a strip-shaped hole, which can serve as a guide, allowing the push seat 51 to drive the limit seat 52 to the correct position, ensuring the stability of unlocking and locking.

[0081] The push base 51 is located on the outside of the mounting base 10 at the opening 14 for easy user operation. Preferably, the side of the push base 51 facing away from the opening 14 is also provided with anti-slip texture to increase contact friction and further facilitate the user in pushing the push base 51.

[0082] It is worth mentioning that the unlocking or locking of the first end 41 of the neck hanger 40 is carried out in the first through hole 15, which makes the neck hanger bracket 1000 more aesthetically pleasing.

[0083] In a specific embodiment, the fastening part 521 is an insert block 522 disposed on the side of the limiting seat 52 facing the locking part 411. The side of the insert block 522 facing the locking part 411 is provided with a first locking groove 522a, which connects the two sides of the insert block 522 in the axial direction of the first through hole 15. The locking part 411 is a second locking groove 411a disposed opposite to the first locking groove 522a. With this arrangement, the first locking groove 522a is engaged with the second locking groove 411a, which makes the locking more secure and improves the structural stability.

[0084] Specifically, the first slot 522a includes two oppositely arranged side slot walls, and the second slot 411a extends circumferentially along the first end 41 of the neck hanger 40. The two side slot walls are located on both sides of the second slot 411a in the radial direction of the first through hole 15 to restrict the movement of the second slot 411a in the radial direction of the first through hole 15. Furthermore, the first slot 522a can also restrict the movement of the second slot 411a in the axial direction of the first through hole 15 on both sides to maintain the stability of the connection between the two.

[0085] To facilitate the cooperation between the first card slot 522a and the second card slot 411a and reduce jamming during operation, there are several ways to configure the first card slot 522a and the second card slot 411a. (Refer to...) Figure 8 In one specific embodiment, the first end 41 includes an end face 412 and a peripheral surface 413 surrounding the end face 412. A first slot 522a is disposed on the peripheral surface 413, and a first chamfer 414 is provided at the connection position between the end face 412 and the peripheral surface 413. With this configuration, as the first end 41 extends into the first through hole 15, the first chamfer 414 can first abut against the first slot 522a and drive the first slot 522a to move towards the second edge portion 142 until it contacts the peripheral surface 413 and is smoothly inserted into the second slot 411a. Specifically, the first chamfer 414 can be a ring-shaped chamfer, so that the user does not need to perform the locking operation at a specific angle. Referring to the figure, in another specific embodiment, a second chamfer 524 is provided at the connection position between the end wall 523 of the insert block 522 near the first through hole 15 and the groove wall of the first slot 522a. With this configuration, the second chamfer 524 can first abut against the other end of the neckpiece 40, driving the limiting seat 52 to gradually move towards the second edge portion 142 until the first slot 522a contacts the peripheral surface 413 and is smoothly inserted into the second slot 411a. In another specific embodiment, it is a combination of the above-described embodiment one and embodiment two, to make the locking process smoother and prevent jamming.

[0086] Reference Figure 8 In a specific implementation, the second slot 411a is arranged around the circumferential surface 413. With this arrangement, the first end 41 does not need to be adjusted to a specific angle when engaging with the first slot 522a. This simplifies the operation process, eliminating the need for the user to painstakingly find the correct alignment angle, saving time and effort, and enabling faster locking operations, thus improving efficiency.

[0087] Reference Figure 9In a specific embodiment, the limiting seat 52 has a insertion hole 525 on the side facing the opening 14. The push seat 51 includes a pressing part 511 and a rod part 512. The pressing part 511 is exposed on the outside of the mounting base 10. One end of the rod part 512 is connected to the pressing part 511, and the other end passes through the opening 14 and is inserted into the insertion hole 525. With this arrangement, the push seat 51 and the limiting seat 52 are connected to the rod part 512 through the insertion hole 525, making assembly faster and more convenient. Moreover, the separate design of the two is more conducive to assembly with the mounting base 10 and can also reduce the difficulty of processing and manufacturing.

[0088] Specifically, the insertion hole 525 and the rod portion 512 are interference-fitted to prevent them from coming apart after connection. Preferably, adhesive can be added during connection to make the connection even more secure.

[0089] Reference Figure 7 In a specific embodiment, the first locking mechanism 50 further includes a second spring 53, which is connected to the limiting seat 52. The second spring 53 is compressed and deformed to store energy when the engaging part 521 and the locking part 411 are unlocked, and the limiting seat 52 is reset when the energy is released. This configuration ensures that the second spring 53 drives the first slot 522a on the insert block 522 to always tend to move towards the second slot 411a, thus maintaining their contact and ensuring a close connection between the first slot 522a and the second slot 411a, improving the reliability of the lock. Furthermore, after unlocking, the second spring 53 can compress and store energy, and when released, it drives the limiting seat 52 to reset, thereby resetting the push seat 51, facilitating the user to re-lock the device, making the operation faster and more efficient.

[0090] Furthermore, the mounting base 10 has a snap-fit ​​block 212a inside. One end of the second spring 53 abuts against the snap-fit ​​block 16, and the other end abuts against the limiting seat 52. The snap-fit ​​block 16 has a first receiving groove 161 on the side facing the limiting seat 52, and one end of the second spring 53 is disposed in the first receiving groove 161. With this arrangement, the first receiving groove 161 can limit and fix the second spring 53, ensuring that the second spring 53 is subjected to uniform force when compressed or stretched, which helps the force transmission between components, thereby improving the stability of the unlocking or locking process.

[0091] In Example 2, as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the first end 41 is also provided with a snap-fit ​​part 411; the neck bracket 1000 also includes a second locking mechanism 60; the second locking mechanism 60 includes a pressing member 61 and a limiting member 62, the pressing member 61 being in a third direction (such as... Figure 11The pressing member 61 is movably connected to the mounting base 10 (as shown in the Y direction). It has a first inclined surface 611 in the third direction, which forms an angle with the third direction. The limiting member 62 has a second inclined surface 621 that abuts against the first inclined surface 611. The limiting member 62 also includes a fastening part 622, which engages with the locking part 411 to lock the neckband 40. When the pressing member 61 is pressed and moved, the first inclined surface 611 engages with the second inclined surface 621 to unlock the fastening part 622 from the locking part 411. In this embodiment, the second locking mechanism 60 enables quick unlocking of the neckband 40 to change the size of the wearing hole, facilitating user wearing.

[0092] Specifically, the first end 41 is provided with a locking part 411; the locking part 411 can be placed in the mounting base 10 and cooperate with the fastening part 622 to achieve locking, and when unlocking is required, the user can control the pressing part 61 to make the first inclined surface 611 abut against the second inclined surface 621, thereby using the pressing part 61 to drive the limiting part 62 to move, and then the fastening part 622 separates from the locking part 411 to unlock, so that one end of the neck hanger 40 can be separated from the mounting base 10, so as to facilitate the user to remove and subsequently wear the neck hanger 1000.

[0093] Reference Figures 11 to 13 In a specific embodiment, the mounting base 10 is provided with a second through hole 17, and the other end of the neck hanger 40 passes through the second through hole 17. The limiting member 62 includes a first extension section 623 and a second extension section 624. One end of the first extension section 623 is provided with a second inclined surface 621, and the second extension section 624 is connected to the other end of the first extension section 623. The second extension section 624 extends toward the second through hole 17. The fastening part 622 is a protrusion 6241 provided on the side of the second extension section 624 facing the first inclined surface 611, and the locking part 411 is a second locking groove 411a provided opposite to the protrusion 6241. With this configuration, the second locking groove 411a engages with the protrusion 6241, making the locking more secure. Furthermore, the second extension section 624 extends toward the second through hole 17, which facilitates that after the other end of the neck hanger 40 initially extends into the second through hole 17, it can quickly engage with the protrusion 6241 provided thereon, reducing the locking time and improving the locking efficiency. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the unlocking or locking of the other end of the neck hanger 40 is performed in the second through hole 17, which improves the aesthetics of the neck hanger bracket 1000.

[0094] Specifically, the first extension segment 623 extends upwards towards the first inclined surface 611, and the second extension segment 624 is vertically disposed at the other end of the first extension segment 623 and extends toward the second through hole 17.

[0095] To facilitate the engagement of the second slot 411a with the protrusion 6241 and reduce jamming during operation, the protrusion 6241 can be configured in various ways. For example, refer to... Figure 13 and Figure 14 The protrusion 6241 includes a third wall 6242 facing the first inclined surface 611 and a fourth wall 6243 facing the second through hole 17. A third chamfer 6241a is provided at the connection between the third wall 6242 and the fourth wall 6243. With this configuration, the third chamfer 6241a can first abut against the other end of the neck hanger 40 and drive the limiting member 62 to gradually move away from the center line of the other end until the protrusion 6241 contacts the peripheral surface 413 and is smoothly placed into the slot.

[0096] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​portion 411 in Embodiment 2 can be configured in the same way as the snap-fit ​​portion 411 in Embodiment 1 to facilitate engagement with the protrusion 6241.

[0097] Reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 In a specific embodiment, the second locking mechanism 60 further includes a third spring 625, which is connected to the limiting member 62. The third spring 625 stores energy through pressure deformation when the latching part 622 and the locking part 411 are unlocked, and resets the limiting member 62 when the energy is released. This configuration ensures that the third spring 625 drives the second inclined surface 621 of the limiting member 62 to always tend to move towards the first inclined surface 611, thus maintaining their contact and ensuring that the pressing member 61 can apply pressure to the limiting member 62. Furthermore, after unlocking, the third spring 625 releases energy to reset the limiting member 62, thereby resetting the pressing member 61, facilitating the user to re-lock the device, making the operation faster and more efficient.

[0098] Specifically, the third spring 625 is connected to the side of the first extension 623 facing away from the first inclined plane 611, so that the direction of energy release acts perpendicularly to the first inclined plane 611, making the force more uniform and stable.

[0099] Furthermore, a second receiving groove 6231 is provided on the side of the first extension section 623 facing away from the first inclined surface 611. A limiting post 6231a is provided at the bottom of the second receiving groove 6231, and one end of the third spring 625 is fitted onto the limiting post 6231a. With this arrangement, the second receiving groove 6231 can initially limit the outer ring of the third spring 625, preventing the third spring 625 from tilting or shifting during extension and retraction, thus improving the stability of the unlocking or locking process. The limiting post 6231a can fix the inner ring of the third spring 625, preventing the third spring 625 from moving within the second receiving groove 6231. Specifically, the outer contour of the second receiving groove 6231 is adapted to the outer ring of the third spring 625, and the outer contour of the limiting post 6231a is adapted to the inner ring of the third spring 625.

[0100] In Example 3, as Figure 16 and Figure 17 As shown, the first end 41 is threadedly connected to the mounting base 10, so that the first end 41 is detachably connected to the mounting base 10. The neck brace 1000 of this embodiment can not only change the size of the wearing hole to facilitate the user's wearing, but also reduce the problem of decreased structural stability of the neck brace 40 during frequent installation, removal and wearing, and its wearing structure has better stability.

[0101] Specifically, the first end 41 of the neck strap 40 is threadedly connected to the mounting base 10 to lock or unlock the neck strap 40 and the mounting base 10, facilitating user wearing. Compared to existing embodiments that use springs and buckles for locking or unlocking, the threaded connection for installation and removal is more reliable. Furthermore, the high degree of fit between the threads during use makes the connection between the mounting base 10 and the first end 41 tighter, reducing the possibility of friction and jamming. Therefore, this structure offers better stability.

[0102] Furthermore, this application completes the installation and disassembly of the neck hanger 40 and the mounting base 10 through the tightening and loosening of the threaded connection, which is simple and easy for users to operate, and the installation and disassembly process is equally convenient and quick.

[0103] Reference Figures 17 to 18 In a specific embodiment, the neck bracket 1000 also includes a rotating member 70, which is configured to allow the user to lock or unlock it by twisting. The rotating member 70 can be configured in several ways. For example, the mounting base 10 is threadedly connected to the rotating member 70, and the rotating member 70 is rotatably mounted on the first end 41 so that it can be locked or unlocked from the mounting base 10 when it rotates. Another example is that the rotating member 70 is threadedly connected to the first end 41, and the rotating member 70 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 10 so that it can be locked or unlocked from the first end 41 when it rotates.

[0104] Specifically, the rotating member 70 and the first end 41, or the rotating member 70 and the mounting base 10, are provided with a threaded structure. The threaded structure includes a threaded post 415 and a threaded hole 73 adapted to the threaded post 415. For example, in this embodiment, the rotating member 70 is provided with a threaded hole 73, and the first end 41 is provided with a threaded post 415. The threaded post 415 and the threaded hole 73 are connected or separated by rotating the rotating member 70.

[0105] Furthermore, the mounting base 10 includes a third through hole 18, and the rotating member 70 includes a head 71 and a body 72. The head 71 is located outside the mounting base 10, and the body 72 is connected to the head 71 and rotatably connected within the third through hole 18. The outer contour of the head 71 is larger than that of the third through hole 18. With this configuration, the third through hole 18 provides rotational space for the body 72, making the rotating member 70 more stable when rotating. The head 71 is exposed outside the third through hole 18. This configuration not only allows the user to easily control the rotation of the rotating member 70 through the head 71, but also, because the outer contour of the head 71 is larger than that of the third through hole 18, the head 71 can abut against the adjacent wall of the third through hole 18, preventing the rotating member 70 from moving into the mounting base 10 along the rotation axis during rotation, thus maintaining relative stability during the unlocking or locking operation.

[0106] Furthermore, the neck brace 1000 also includes a retaining ring 80. A locking structure 721 is provided on the side of the body 72 away from the head 71, and the retaining ring 80 is installed in the locking structure 721 to prevent the body 72 from disengaging from the third through hole 18. With this arrangement, the retaining ring 80 and the head 71 cooperate to limit the relative position of the body 72 within the third through hole 18, preventing the body 72 from moving along the rotation axis and further improving the stability of the structure's rotation.

[0107] In a specific embodiment, the body 72 includes a peripheral wall 722, and the snap-fit ​​structure 721 is a third snap-fit ​​groove 722a disposed on the peripheral wall 722. The third snap-fit ​​groove 722a is disposed around the peripheral wall 722 so that the inner ring of the retaining ring 80 is snapped into the third snap-fit ​​groove 722a. Fixing the retaining ring 80 to the third snap-fit ​​groove 722a can improve assembly stability, prevent the rotating part 70 from falling off, simplify the installation steps, and facilitate maintenance.

[0108] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 10 , Figure 15 as well as Figure 19 In this application, the fixing mechanism 20 can be configured in many ways. For example, the fixing mechanism 20 further includes a fixing base 22 connected to the connecting base 21, a fourth spring (not shown in the figure), and two grippers 23. The two grippers 23 are movably connected to both sides of the fixing base 22, and the fourth spring is clamped between the two grippers 23. The fourth spring is used to drive the two grippers 23 to move towards each other to hold the photographing device. Another example is that the fixing mechanism 20 includes a fixing base 22 connected to the connecting base 21, and the fixing base 22 has a magnetic suction element (not shown in the figure). The magnetic suction element is magnetically connected to the photographing device, and the magnetic suction element can be a magnet. Yet another example is a combination of the above two embodiments. With this configuration, the fixing mechanism 20 can be reliably connected to the photographing device and is convenient for users to install and disassemble.

[0109] Furthermore, a folding arm 24 is provided between the connecting seat 21 and the fixed seat 22. The two ends of the folding arm 24 are rotatably connected to the connecting seat 21 and the fixed seat 22, respectively. The folding arm 24 can be relatively unfolded or folded, thereby facilitating storage or increasing the adjustment distance. The rotation center line of the fixed seat 22 and the folding arm 24 is aligned with the second direction, while the rotation center line of the connecting seat 21 and the folding arm 24 is perpendicular to the second direction, to allow users to adjust different shooting angles. It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit them. Those skilled in the art can modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and all such modifications and substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
