Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the clamping device is fixed to the rotor end of the gimbal motor at a single position, then the structure is simple, but the shooting scene is greatly limited and cannot stabilize the smartphone at different angles
Solution Approach 1:
The clamping device is divided into multiple installation positions (first installation position and second installation position) on the rotor end, allowing the clamping assembly to be selectively mounted at different locations to achieve different shooting angles and orientations, thereby resolving the contradiction between structural simplicity and shooting scene adaptability
Solution Approach 2:
The clamping device is designed with universal mounting capability at multiple positions, enabling a single clamping assembly to perform multiple functions by being installed at different locations - either for front-facing shooting at the first position or side-facing shooting at the second position, thus achieving multi-scene adaptability without requiring multiple specialized devices
2Reliability
If the clamping device is fixed at a single position, then the structure is simple, but it cannot meet the requirements of stabilizing the smartphone at different angles under different scenes
Solution Approach 1:
The rotor end is segmented into multiple installation positions with distinct orientations, allowing the clamping assembly to be positioned optimally for different stabilization requirements - the first position for front camera stabilization and the second position for side camera stabilization, ensuring reliable stabilization across multiple shooting scenarios
Solution Approach 2:
The clamping device structure is made dynamically adaptable through detachable mounting at multiple positions, allowing users to switch between different installation configurations based on shooting requirements, thereby maintaining reliable stabilization performance across varying scenes without requiring a complex fixed multi-position mechanism
3Adaptability or versatility
If the clamping device is fixed at a single position, then the device complexity is low, but it cannot better utilize the characteristics of the gimbal to stabilize smartphone shooting
Solution Approach 1:
The rotor end surface is segmented into multiple distinct installation positions (first and second positions) with different spatial orientations, enabling the clamping assembly to be mounted at the optimal position for each shooting scenario, thereby maximizing gimbal stabilization characteristics for different shooting angles while maintaining relatively simple device structure
Solution Approach 2:
The installation positions are asymmetrically arranged on the rotor end to match the asymmetric requirements of different shooting scenarios - the first position optimized for front-facing shooting and the second position for side-facing shooting, allowing the clamping device to better utilize gimbal characteristics for each orientation without requiring symmetric complex structures

AI summary
The present invention discloses a gimbal, which belongs to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for shooting. The gimbal includes a connection part, a support assembly, a motor assembly, and a fixed assembly. The support assembly is mounted on one end of the connection part, the motor assembly is mounted on the other end of the connection part. The fixed assembly can be detachably mounted on the motor assembly. In particular, the fixed assembly can be mounted on the motor assembly in a first direction and drive the shooting device to rotate in a roll direction. By detachably mounting the fixed assembly, the gimbal not only achieves rotation of the shooting device in the roll direction, but also achieves rotation of the shooting device in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring stable shooting of the shooting device in different scenarios and meeting the needs of different shooting scenarios.
