Abstract
A supporting mechanism with a rotating function is applied to a camera apparatus and includes a casing, a holder, an inner structural component and a damping component. The casing has a first opening. The inner structural component can be rotated relative to the casing. The holder is movably disposed inside the inner structural component and passes through the first opening. The damping component is disposed between the casing and the inner structural component.
Claims20
A supporting mechanism with a rotating function, comprising:
- a casing, the casing having a first opening:
- an inner structural component configured to be rotated relative to the casing in a rotating direction;
- a holder movably disposed inside the inner structural component and passing through the first opening to rotate relative to the inner structural component in an oscillating direction;
- and
- a damping component disposed between the casing and the inner structural component;
- wherein the oscillating direction is a first direction, and the rotating direction is a second direction different from the first direction.
A camera apparatus with a rotating function, comprising:
- a camera;
- and
- a supporting mechanism, comprising:
- a casing, the casing having a first opening:
- an inner structural component configured to be rotated relative to the casing in a rotating direction for driving rotation of the camera;
- a holder movably disposed inside the inner structural component and passing through the first opening to rotate relative to the inner structural component in an oscillating direction for connecting with the camera;
- and
- a damping component disposed between the casing and the inner structural component;
- wherein the oscillating direction is a first direction, and the rotating direction is a second direction different from the first direction.
