Foot tube locking structure for tripod

Abstract

The present invention discloses a foot tube locking structure for a tripod, including a gimbal base and a foot tube, where one end of the foot tube is rotatably connected to the gimbal base, a locking tooth base is disposed on the gimbal base, a plurality of locking tooth grooves are arranged on the locking tooth base along a rotating direction of the foot tube, a locking element embedded into any one of the locking tooth grooves is movably disposed on the foot tube, a locking mechanism is disposed on the foot tube, and the locking mechanism is configured to perform position locking on the locking element, to constrain the locking element from separating from the locking tooth groove. According to the present invention, based on the locking mechanism, the foot tube may be prevented from being folded inward, use stability of the tripod may be effectively improved.
