Hinged Mounting Base Structure for Adjustable Camera Accessories
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mounting bases for photographic lamps or monitors are inflexible, limiting their adjustability and compatibility with digital video cameras and other equipment, such as microphones, as they often require a fixed angle and a single connecting stand.
Innovation Solution
A compact mounting base structure featuring a first connecting rod with a rotatable end and a hinged second connecting rod, incorporating threaded holes for secure attachment to digital video cameras, POM gaskets for stability, and L-shaped design for easy assembly, allowing for adjustable positioning and connection with multiple devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a fixed-angle mounting base is used, then the structure is simple, but the adjustability is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting base incorporates rotatable connecting rods with hinge joints that enable dynamic adjustment of the photographic lamp or monitor to multiple angles and orientations, transforming a static fixed-structure into a dynamic adjustable system while maintaining structural integrity through standardized connection components
2Adaptability or versatility
If a single connecting stand is used, then the device is compact, but the compatibility with additional equipment is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting base features multiple threaded holes positioned at different locations and orientations on the connecting rods, enabling the same base structure to accommodate various types of equipment including microphones, monitors, and photographic lamps simultaneously, making the connection system universal and multi-functional

AI summary
A mounting base structure used for a photographic lamp or monitor comprises a first connecting rod having an end rotatably connected with one side of a photographic lamp or monitor and an end provided with a connecting part. A second connecting rod to be attached to the first connecting rod is hinged to the connecting part. A first threaded hole to be connected with a connecting bolt on a digital video camera is horizontally formed in the side face of the other end of the second connecting rod. The mounting base structure used for the photographic lamp or monitor is simple and compact and facilitates the connection of the photographic lamp or monitor with the digital video camera.
