Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] This utility model relates to an external three-axis gimbal camera device for mobile phones with a telescopic rod, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a camera 2 and a three-axis gimbal 3. The working principle of the camera 2 and the three-axis gimbal 3 is existing technology. For example, you can refer to the "Gimbal Assembly and Handheld Gimbal Shooter" with Chinese invention patent publication number CN107466471B. The camera 2 is set at the end of the three-axis gimbal 3, that is, the three-axis gimbal 3 can drive the camera 2 to move.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mobile phone external three-axis gimbal camera device with telescopic rod of this utility model also includes a mobile phone clamp 1 and a telescopic rod 4. The camera 2 is located above the mobile phone clamp 1, and the telescopic rod 4 is located on the rear side of the mobile phone clamp 1. This avoids placing the telescopic rod 4 on the left or right side of the mobile phone clamp 1, which would increase the space occupied by the three-axis gimbal camera device in the left and right direction. Figure 7 As shown, the telescopic rod 4 has a telescopic rod end 4001, and the three-axis gimbal 3 is mounted on the telescopic rod end 4001.

[0023] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, when the phone 99 is installed into the phone clip 1, the telescopic rod 4 is located on the rear side of the phone 99, and the camera 2 is located on the upper side of the phone 99. At this point, the three-axis gimbal camera device of this invention is assembled with the phone 99 as a single unit. The user can then hold the phone 99 to take pictures, avoiding the need for a separate handle structure. In other words, using the phone 99 as the handle of the three-axis gimbal camera device of this invention makes the combination of the phone 99 and the three-axis gimbal camera device compact and lightweight. The user can also hold the lower part of the telescopic rod 4. The three-axis gimbal camera device of this invention can use the phone 99 as a display terminal. When taking selfies using the camera 2, since the screen of the phone 99 faces the user, it is convenient for the user to take selfies; as... Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the telescopic rod 4 can be extended to increase its length, thereby raising the position of the camera 2. This allows users to easily take selfies from above, or, in a crowd, position the camera 2 above the heads of most people, preventing them from obstructing the view. The height of the camera 2 is adjustable, making this three-axis gimbal camera device quite versatile. The phone 99 is held and fixed in place by the phone clip 1, making it easy to attach and detach. After separating the phone 99 from the three-axis gimbal camera device, the telescopic rod 4 can be retracted, allowing for easy storage of the three-axis gimbal camera device. Therefore, this external three-axis gimbal camera device with a telescopic rod is quite convenient to use.

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the phone clip 1 includes a supporting back plate 11, and the telescopic rod 4 includes a cylindrical base 40. A lug plate 401 is formed on the outer side of the cylindrical base 40. The upper end of the supporting back plate 11 is connected to the lug plate 401 via a locking screw 5. The cylindrical base 40 can rotate relative to the supporting back plate 11 around the locking screw 5. Specifically, a rear protrusion 111 is formed at the upper end of the supporting back plate 11. The locking screw 5 passes through the lug plate 401 from top to bottom, and the lower part of the locking screw 5 is screwed onto the rear protrusion 111. The lug plate 401 abuts against the upper side of the rear protrusion 111. The cylindrical base 40 and the phone clip 1 can be relatively fixed by the locking screw 5. After loosening the locking screw 5, the cylindrical base 40 can be rotated horizontally by hand, specifically rotating relative to the supporting back plate 11 around the locking screw 5. This allows the telescopic rod 4 to rotate horizontally as a whole to adjust the shooting angle of the camera 2. After adjustment, tighten the locking screw 5. Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the telescopic working principle of the telescopic rod 4 is existing technology. For examples, please refer to Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN215521518U "A Telescopic Rod for Photographic Equipment", Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN218441515U "A Telescopic Photographic Tripod", and Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN219327945U "A Conveniently Adjustable Photographic Stand". Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the telescopic rod 4 includes several rod sections 400. When the telescopic rod 4 retracts, the rod section 400 located at the upper position retracts from top to bottom into the rod section 400 located at the lowermost position, and the lower part of the rod section 400 located at the lowermost position can also retract into the cylinder base 40. Figure 6As shown, the inner and outer adjacent rod sections 400 are circumferentially positioned relative to each other through the corresponding guide structure 402, that is, to prevent the inner and outer adjacent rod sections 400 from rotating relative to each other. The guide structure 402 can refer to "A Handheld Gimbal" in Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN214064521U. Similarly, the rod section 400 located at the lowest position and the cylinder base 40 can also be circumferentially positioned relative to each other through the corresponding guide structure 402.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a handwheel portion 501 is formed at the upper end of the locking screw 5. The handwheel portion 501 is attached to the upper side of the lug plate 401. Therefore, when the locking screw 5 is tightened, the lower part of the handwheel portion 501 presses against the upper part of the lug plate 401, thereby clamping the lug plate 401 between the handwheel portion 501 and the rear protrusion 111, which can fix the cylinder seat 40 and the bearing back plate 11 relative to each other. When it is necessary to loosen the locking screw 5, the handwheel portion 501 can be pinched with fingers and then the handwheel portion 501 can be turned, which is convenient for operation.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lug plate 401 is located at the upper end of the cylinder base 40, and a gap 100 for avoiding fingers is provided between the cylinder base 40 and the supporting back plate 11. Figure 3 As shown, the width dimension "W" of the gap 100 can be set to 15 mm to 18 mm. When the user holds the tube base 40 with his hand from behind, the tips of his fingers can be inserted into the gap 100, which helps the user to hold the tube base 40 firmly.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 40 is cylindrical, and the central axis of the base 40 is along the vertical direction. When the user holds the base 40, the cylindrical shape of the base 40 makes it easy for the user to hold the base 40 firmly and also avoids the base 40 forming sharp corners that would cause discomfort to the user's hand.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the phone clip 1 also includes a clip assembly 12, which includes a movable clip finger 121 and a fixed clip finger 122. The fixed clip finger 122 is integrated with the support back plate 11. The support back plate 11 is slidably connected to a slide rod 123, with two slide rods 123 distributed vertically. The left end of the slide rod 123 is fixedly connected to the movable clip finger 121. Specifically, the slide rod 123 and the movable clip finger 121 can be integrated through an insert injection molding process. A spring can be installed inside the support back plate 11, with one end of the spring connected to the right end of the slide rod 123. When the phone 99 is installed in the phone clip 1, first pull the movable clip finger 121 to the left, then place the phone 99 back against the front of the support back plate 11, and then release the movable clip finger 121. The elastic restoring force of the spring pushes the slide rod 123 to the right. Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the movable clamp finger 121 moves to the right and clamps the mobile phone 99; the above-mentioned mobile phone clamp 1 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the three-axis gimbal 3 includes a yaw arm 31, a roll fork arm 32, and a pitch housing 33. The lower part of the yaw arm 31 is located on the upper side of the telescopic rod 4, and the pitch housing 33 is located inside the roll fork arm 32. The camera 2 is located inside the pitch housing 33. Therefore, the "end of the three-axis gimbal 3" mentioned above refers to the pitch housing 33. The three-axis gimbal 3 includes a first-axis motor 34, a second-axis motor 35, and a third-axis motor 36. A mounting plate 41 is provided at the end 4001 of the telescopic rod, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the mounting plate 41 is fixed relative to the upper end of the uppermost rod section 400. Specifically, a pin is formed at the bottom of the mounting plate 41, and this pin is inserted into the upper end of the uppermost rod section 400. The mounting plate 41 is connected to the yaw arm 31 via the first axis motor 34, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, taking the first axis motor 34 as an example, the first axis motor 34 includes a base 340, a stator 341 and a rotor 342. The rotor 342 is cup-shaped. The bottom of the rotor 342 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft, which passes through the base 340 and is connected to the base 340 by a bearing. The stator 341 is fixedly located on the outside of the base 340 and is located inside the rotor 342. The rotor 342 is fitted into the mounting plate 41. The upper end of the base 340 is connected to the yaw arm 31 by screws. The upper end of the yaw arm 31 is connected to the rear end of the roll fork arm 32 through the second axis motor 35. The roll fork arm 32 is connected to the pitch housing 33 through the third axis motor 36. The rotor of the third axis motor 36 is embedded in the pitch housing 33. When the first axis motor 34 is working, it can drive the yaw arm 31 to rotate horizontally, thereby enabling the camera 2 to rotate horizontally; when the second axis motor 35 is working, it can drive the roll fork arm 32 to rotate around the front and rear axes; when the third axis motor 36 is working, it can drive the pitch housing 33 to swing up and down.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the three-axis gimbal camera device of this utility model also includes a data cable 6. One end of the data cable 6 is provided with a plug 61 for connecting a mobile phone 99. The data cable 6 is only shown schematically. Figure 3 Data cable 6 is not shown. Camera 2 can transmit data with mobile phone 99 via data cable 6. Data transmission between camera 2 and mobile phone 99 is existing technology. For example, please refer to the Chinese utility model patent publication number CN210246891U, "A gimbal camera that can be powered and transmit data via mobile phone data interface".
