[0002] Nowadays, both professional photographers and ordinary people widely use photographic equipment such as cameras and mobile phones to capture beautiful scenes in their daily lives. With the widespread popularity and diversification of photographic equipment, various photographic equipment holding devices have appeared to make it easier for users to take photographs. Common photographic equipment holding devices are divided into two types: handheld and fixed. The handheld type is a type in which the user secures the photographic equipment to the holding device and then holds it in their hand to use (take photographs). On the other hand, the fixed type is a type in which the user secures the photographic equipment to the holding device and then places it on the ground, table, or the like to use (take photographs). Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] However, both the handheld and fixed types cannot be fixed to objects of different shapes and can only be used in a state where the user holds or places the camera. Therefore, if the user cannot hold the camera or cannot place the camera on the ground or a flat surface, the user may not be able to stabilize the camera and take a photo, which may result in missing a good shot. Therefore, it is desirable to improve the camera holder so that the user can hold it, place it, or fix it to an object according to different location environments.

[0018] In describing the present disclosure, the orientations or positional relationships indicated by terms such as "front," "rear," "left side," "right side," "front end," "rear end," "end," "longitudinal," "lateral," "vertical," "top," and "bottom" are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings and are intended for the convenience of describing the present disclosure, and do not indicate or suggest that such devices or elements must have a particular orientation, be configured, or operate in a particular orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limitations on the present disclosure.

[0019] As used in this disclosure, terms such as "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and "fifth" refer to various elements, components, regions, levels, and / or portions, but these elements, components, regions, levels, and / or portions are not limited to these terms. These terms are used merely to distinguish one element, component, region, level, and / or portion from another element, component, region, level, and / or portion. The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and "fifth," as used herein, do not imply any order or sequence unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0020] Additionally, unless otherwise defined, terms such as "substantially" and "approximately" used in this disclosure are intended to describe and account for minor variations. When referring to an event or circumstance, these terms can include the exact time at which the event or circumstance occurred and the approximate time at which the event or circumstance occurred. For example, when referring to a numerical value, the terms can include a range of variation of ±10% or less (e.g., ±5% or less, ±4% or less, ±3% or less, ±2% or less, ±1% or less, ±0.5% or less, ±0.1% or less, or ±0.05% or less) of the numerical value.

[0021] Next, the detailed description and technical contents of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings, which are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the present disclosure provides a photographic device holding device. The photographic device holding device is attached and fixed to a photographic device A, and is clamped and fixed to a workpiece B. Here, the photographic device A is a camera or a mobile phone, but the present disclosure is not limited to these. Figures 7 to 9 show a first embodiment of the present disclosure, and the photographic device holding device mainly includes a base 10, a main bracket 20, a fixed clamp arm 30, a movable clamp arm 40, and an adjustment mechanism 50.

[0023] The photographic device A is attached and fixed to the base 10. Specifically, the photographic device A is attached to the base 10 via a connection device C. In this embodiment, the connection device C is a pan head for fixing the photographic device A, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the connection device C may be a clip-type mobile phone holder for clamping the photographic device A, which is a mobile phone. Both pan heads and clip-type mobile phone holders are connection devices C well known to those skilled in the art. Therefore, although a connection device C in the form of a clip-type mobile phone holder is not shown in the drawings of the present disclosure, both pan heads and clip-type mobile phone holders are intended to be included in the scope of protection of the connection device C in the present disclosure. Furthermore, the connection device C in the present disclosure is not limited to a pan head or a clip-type mobile phone holder; any connection device C capable of attaching and fixing the photographic device A is intended to be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0024] The main bracket 20 is connected to the base 10. Specifically, the main bracket 20 is connected to the side of the base 10 opposite to the side where the photographic device A is attached. In other words, the main bracket 20 and the photographic device A are arranged on opposite sides of the base 10 so as not to interfere with each other. In this embodiment, the main bracket 20 is pivotally attached to the base 10, so that the angle of the main bracket 20 relative to the base 10 can be adjusted. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. The main bracket 20 extends along the vertical direction D and has a band shape. Specifically, the main bracket 20 extends in a direction away from the base 10.

[0025] The fixed clamp arm 30 is attached to either the base 10 or the main bracket 20. In this embodiment, the fixed clamp arm 30 is attached to the main bracket 20, but the present disclosure is not limited to this, and other attachment positions of the fixed clamp arm 30 will be further described in other embodiments described later, so detailed description will be omitted here. The movable clamp arm 40 can move along the vertical direction D. Furthermore, the movable clamp arm 40 and the fixed clamp arm 30 are arranged opposite each other.

[0026] The adjustment mechanism 50 is attached to the main bracket 20. The adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the movable clamp arm 40 to move toward or away from the fixed clamp arm 30 along the vertical direction D. As a result, the movable clamp arm 40 and the fixed clamp arm 30 can clamp or release the workpiece B together. As a result, the photographic device A is attached and fixed by the base 10, and the adjustment mechanism 50 can drive the movable clamp arm 40 to move toward or away from the fixed clamp arm 30, so that the movable clamp arm 40 and the fixed clamp arm 30 can clamp or release the workpiece B together. As a result, the photographic device holding device can clamp and fix workpieces B of different outer diameters or shapes according to different usage environments, allowing for stable photographing of the photographic device A.

[0027] Explaining further, as shown in FIG. 7 , the main bracket 20 is provided with a position limiting groove 21, which extends along the vertical direction D and is located inside the main bracket 20. The adjustment mechanism 50 includes a sliding seat 51, a screw rod 52, and a drive assembly 53. The sliding seat 51 is housed in the position limiting groove 21 and is limited on opposite sides by the position limiting groove 21. Therefore, the sliding seat 51 is limited within the position limiting groove 21 and can only slide back and forth along the vertical direction D. The movable clamp arm 40 is attached to the sliding seat 51 so as to be able to slide back and forth together with the sliding seat 51 along the vertical direction D. The screw rod 52 is rotatably attached within the position limiting groove 21. Specifically, one end of the screw rod 52 is rotatably inserted into a fixing hole 211 on the side of the position limiting groove 21 facing the base 10. The screw rod 52 penetrates the sliding seat 51 and is screwed into the threaded hole 511 of the sliding seat 51 via the male thread 521 provided on the outer periphery of the screw rod 52. Because both sides of the sliding seat 51 are restricted by the position limiting grooves 21, when the screw rod 52 rotates, the male thread 521 drives the threaded hole 511 of the sliding seat 51, causing the sliding seat 51 to slide along the vertical direction D. The drive assembly 53 is connected to the other end of the screw rod 52 (i.e., the end of the screw rod 52 away from the base 10). When the drive assembly 53 is rotated, the drive assembly 53 drives the screw rod 52 to rotate, and thus the sliding seat 51 drives the movable clamp arm 40 toward the fixed clamp arm 30. On the other hand, when the drive assembly 53 is rotated in the opposite direction, the drive assembly 53 drives the screw rod 52 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the sliding seat 51 to drive the movable clamp arm 40 away from the fixed clamp arm 30.

[0028] In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 50 further includes a position limiting plate 54, and the drive assembly 53 includes a rotating seat 531 and a locking lever 532. The position limiting plate 54 is fixed between an end of the main bracket 20 (i.e., the end of the main bracket 20 remote from the base 10) and the rotating seat 531. The position limiting plate 54 has a stop notch 541. The rotating seat 531 is connected to the end of the screw rod 52 remote from the base 10 and is rotatably connected to the position limiting plate 54. The locking lever 532 is pivotally connected to the rotating seat 531 and can pivot relative to the rotating seat 531. Thus, when the locking lever 532 is pivoted to be positioned within the stop notch 541, it is limited by the position limiting plate 54, preventing the drive assembly 53 from rotating. This locks the position of the movable clamp arm 40. On the other hand, if the user needs to adjust the position of the movable clamp arm 40, the lock lever 532 can be pivoted to disengage it from the stop notch 541, allowing the drive assembly 53 to be rotated to adjust the position of the movable clamp arm 40.

[0029] The fixed clamp arm 30 is pivotally mounted to either the base 10 or the main bracket 20, while the movable clamp arm 40 is pivotally mounted to the slide seat 51. This allows the fixed clamp arm 30 and the movable clamp arm 40 to be pivotally switched between a storage position S1 and an operating position S2. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the fixed clamp arm 30 and the movable clamp arm 40 are located in the storage position S1, they are both parallel to the vertical direction D, resulting in a storage effect of reducing the volume. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, when the fixed clamp arm 30 and the movable clamp arm 40 are located in the operating position S2, they are both approximately perpendicular to the vertical direction D, so that they jointly clamp and fix the workpiece B.

[0030] In this embodiment, the fixed clamp arm 30 is pivotally connected to the main bracket 20. Furthermore, the photographic equipment support device of the present disclosure includes a pair of sub-brackets 60. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and 8 and 9, the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are pivotally attached to the base 10. Specifically, the main bracket 20, each sub-bracket 60, and the photographic equipment A are located on opposite sides of the base 10, respectively, and the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are disposed at equal angles to form a triangle. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 9, the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are pivoted relative to the base 10 until they are parallel to each other, and then closed like a rod. In this case, the user can easily store or hold the photographic equipment support device. Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 8, when the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are rotated and unfolded relative to the base 10, the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 form a tripod structure with a triangular pyramid shape. In this case, the photographic equipment holding device can be used by placing it on the ground or other flat surface.

[0031] More specifically, the fixed clamp arm 30 includes a first arm body 31, and the movable clamp arm 40 includes a second arm body 41. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the first arm body 31 includes a first clamp slot 311, and the second arm body 41 includes a second clamp slot 411. The first clamp slot 311 and the second clamp slot 411 can jointly clamp the outer edge of the workpiece B. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first clamp slot 311 and the second clamp slot 411 are both configured to be recessed inward in a generally V-shape, so that they can easily clamp a workpiece B whose cross-sectional periphery does not have parallel sides, such as a rod-shaped or saw-tooth-shaped object (e.g., whose cross-sectional periphery is circular, elliptical, triangular, irregular, etc.). However, the cross-sectional shapes of the first clamp slot 311 and the second clamp slot 411 in this disclosure are not limited to V-shaped and may be, for example, arc-shaped or irregularly grooved.

[0032] The fixed clamp arm 30 further includes a first clamp block 32 pivotally mounted to the first arm body 31, and the movable clamp arm 40 further includes a second clamp block 42 pivotally mounted to the second arm body 41. The first clamp block 32 has a first clamping surface 321, and the second clamp block 42 has a second clamping surface 421. This allows a user to pivot the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 as needed to adjust the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 to fit workpieces B with different outer shapes. Specifically, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, when the workpiece B has sides parallel to the periphery of its cross section (for example, when the periphery of the cross section is a rectangle or a regular polygon), that is, when the workpiece B is a tabletop, block, plate-like object, etc., the user can pivot the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 so that the first clamp surface 321 and the second clamp surface 421 are opposite and parallel to each other, thereby causing the first clamp surface 321 and the second clamp surface 421 to jointly clamp the opposite and parallel surfaces of the workpiece B.

[0033] Next, a second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 and 11 . The main difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the fixed clamp arm 30 is pivotally attached to the center of the base 10. This will be described in detail below. In this embodiment, the fixed clamp arm 30 and the photographing device A are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the base 10, and the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are pivotally attached to the base 10 and together surround the fixed clamp arm 30. As a result, even when the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are pivoted relative to the base 10 to a parallel state as shown in FIG. 11 , the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are retracted into a rod-like structure that is easy for the user to retract or grasp. At this time, the fixed clamp arm 30 is positioned between the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60, so it does not interfere with the retraction of the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60. 10, even when both the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are pivoted and deployed relative to the base 10, the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 can form a triangular pyramid-shaped tripod structure. This allows the photographic equipment holding device to be used by placing it on the ground or other flat surface, but it is also possible to pivot the fixed clamp arm 30 to the operating position S2 as needed and clamp and fix the workpiece B together with the movable clamp arm 40.

[0034] Next, a third embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 and 13 . The main difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that the fixed clamp arm 30 is pivotally attached to the base 10, but each sub-bracket 60 is pivotally attached to the fixed clamp arm 30. This will be described in detail below. In this embodiment, the fixed clamp arm 30 and the main bracket 20 are pivotally attached to the base 10 so as to face each other, and the photographic device A is disposed on each opposing side of the base 10, and each sub-bracket 60 is pivotally attached to one end of the fixed clamp arm 30 remote from the base 10. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 13 , even when the main bracket 20 is pivoted relative to the base 10 and each sub-bracket 60 is pivoted relative to the fixed clamp arm 30 so as to be parallel to each other, the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60 are stored in a rod-like structure that is easy for a user to store or grasp. At this time, the movable clamp arm 40 is accommodated in the first clamp slot 311 of the fixed clamp arm 30, so it does not interfere with the accommodation of the main bracket 20 and each sub-bracket 60. Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 12 , even when the main bracket 20, fixed clamp arm 30, and each sub-bracket 60 are all pivoted and deployed relative to the base 10, the main bracket 20, fixed clamp arm 30, and each sub-bracket 60 can form a triangular pyramid-shaped tripod structure. This allows the photographic equipment holding device to be used while placed on the ground or other flat surface. In other words, the fixed clamp arm 30 can be used not only as part of the tripod, but also, as needed, to clamp and secure the workpiece B together with the movable clamp arm 40.

[0035] 3 to 9, the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 in the first embodiment of the present disclosure each have a pair of first pivotal connection portions 322 and a pair of second pivotal connection portions 422. In the fixed clamp arm 30, each of the first pivotal connection portions 322 is pivotally socket-connected to opposite sides of the first arm body 31. In the movable clamp arm 40, each of the second pivotal connection portions 422 is pivotally socket-connected to opposite sides of the second arm body 41. However, the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, FIG. 14 shows a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. The fourth embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 each have only the first pivotal connection portion 322 and the second pivotal connection portion 422. Specifically, the first pivot connection portion 322 of the fourth embodiment is inserted into and pivotally connected to one end of the first arm body 31 remote from the main bracket 20, and the second pivot connection portion 422 is inserted into and pivotally connected to one end of the second arm body 41 remote from the main bracket 20. In other words, the only difference between the first and fourth embodiments is the pivot connection method of the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42, and both embodiments should be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Of course, the first clamp block 32 and the second clamp block 42 can use other pivot connection methods not described above, but these methods can be easily obtained by a person skilled in the art as needed, and therefore all should be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure, and this is stated here.

[0036] In the photographic equipment holding device of the present disclosure, the photographic equipment A is attached and fixed by the base 10, and the adjustment mechanism 50 drives the movable clamp arm 40 to move closer to or away from the fixed clamp arm 30, thereby causing the movable clamp arm 40 and the fixed clamp arm 30 to clamp or release the workpiece B together. This allows the photographic equipment holding device to clamp and fix workpieces B of different outer diameters or shapes according to different usage environments, making it possible to stably photograph the photographic equipment A.

[0037] Therefore, the above contents of the present disclosure are intended to enable those skilled in the art to clearly understand the technical contents of the present disclosure and to implement the same, but are not intended to limit the scope of the claims of the present disclosure. Furthermore, the present disclosure can of course be implemented in various forms not described above, and those skilled in the art can obtain various changes and modifications based on the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and essence of the present disclosure, and all of these changes and modifications should be included in the scope of the claims of the present disclosure.
