Abstract
A camera mount is disclosed in the present invention. The camera mount includes a gimbal fixing unit, a rotating unit, a camera base fixing unit, a camera fixing screw and a tightening screw. The gimbal fixing unit includes a fixing portion and a rotating portion, and the rotating unit includes a rotating round frame and a connecting structure. The design of the gimbal fixing unit and the rotating unit allows a camera to rotate the composition angle relative to the gimbal, which is convenient for changing the lens without compromising the line of sight of the lens, which solves the problems existing in the use of the gimbal.
Claims13
A camera mount, comprising:
- a fixing unit, comprising:
- a fixing portion, detachably connectable to a camera;
- and
- a rotating portion, comprising:
- an open ring, wherein curvature of an inner surface of the open ring is changeable by force, and an extension section is formed on a moving end of the open ring,
- a holding body, vertically formed above the fixing portion and connected to a lower part of a fixed end of the open ring, wherein a second circular perforation is formed through the fixing portion, the holding body and the lower part of the fixed end;
- and
- an elastic limit device, installed inside the second circular perforation, capable of being elastically protruded into the open ring and pressed back into the second circular perforation;
- a rotating unit, comprising:
- a rotating round frame, wherein a surrounding groove is formed around a periphery of the rotating round frame toward a center of circle of the rotating round frame, a plurality of third circular perforations are formed in the bottom of the surrounding groove, and the open ring is sleeved on the surrounding groove so that the rotating round frame is rotatable inside the open ring;
- and
- a connecting structure having a plurality of first through holes;
- a camera base fixing unit, wherein a second through hole is formed in the center of the camera base fixing unit, one side of the camera base fixing unit has a plurality of second screw holes, and screws pass through the first through holes to lock in the second screw holes, respectively, so that the camera base fixing unit is fixed to the rotating unit;
- a camera fixing screw, connected to a screw hole at a bottom of a camera through the second through hole to detachably fix the camera base fixing unit to a camera;
- and
- a locking mechanism connecting the extension section to the holding body, which when moved to a locking position moves the moving end close to the fixed end and causes the open ring to clamp the surrounding groove to limit the relative position of the rotating round frame and the open ring.
