Switching device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of photographic equipment, in particular to an adapter device for attaching a photographic accessory to a camera lens.
Background
The filter is a commonly used photographic accessory in photography and videography, is fixed at the front end of the lens and is mainly used for increasing color concentration, such as deepening sky blue, highlighting white cloud and eliminating the reflected light of non-metal surfaces, such as glass or water surface; the soft focus caused by atmospheric fog in landscape pictures can be reduced, but the tone balance of the whole picture is not changed.
The filter or the filter component is connected to the lens through the bracket, and the bracket is connected with the lens through the switching device. The filter or filter assembly may also be attached to the lens directly by the adapter. The common switching device is a switching ring, the sizes of lenses of different manufacturers and different wide angles are different, and the lens of one size needs to be installed through one switching ring. For lenses of different sizes, the photographer needs to use adapter rings of different sizes. Therefore, the photographer usually purchases a plurality of adapter rings with different sizes to match the lenses with different sizes, which undoubtedly increases the cost expenditure of the photographer. In addition, when a photographer goes out to shoot, in order to match lenses with different sizes, the photographer needs to carry a plurality of adapter rings with different sizes, which is very inconvenient.
In short, the adapter ring has the following drawbacks: high replacement cost, poor universality and inconvenient carrying.

Each sliding adapter member 130 is provided with an adapter portion 131, the first guide rail 121 and the second guide rail 122 are arranged such that when the sliding adapter member 130 moves along the first guide rail 121 and the second guide rail 122, the adapter portions 131 of the sliding adapter members 130 can form a circumferential distribution, and the diameter of the circumferential distribution can be increased or decreased along with the movement of the adapter portions 131 so as to be fittingly connected with the camera lens. Specifically, when the slide adapter member 130 moves along the first rail 121 and the second rail 122, the adapter portion 130 is provided to be able to move away from or close to the rotation ring 120 in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotation ring 120. In the present embodiment, when the sliding adaptor member 130 moves along the first and second guide rails 121 and 122, the adaptor portion 130 moves away from or approaches the rotating ring 120 along a curve on a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating ring 120.
The above-mentioned adapter 100 can be adapted to different lenses with different aperture sizes. Through the relative rotation of the rotating ring 120 and the adapter body 110, each sliding adapter member 130 can move along the corresponding first guide rail 121 and second guide rail 122, while the adapter part 131 moves away from or close to the rotating ring 120 in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating ring 120, and each adapter part 131 can form a circumferential distribution, that is, through the relative rotation of the rotating ring 130 and the adapter body 110, each adapter part 131 can form a circumferential distribution with a variable radius.

Therefore, when a camera lens having a certain aperture size is used, the positions of the adapters 131 and the size of the circumferentially distributed radii that can be formed by the adapters can be properly adjusted by the relative rotation of the rotating ring 130 and the adapter body 110 to match the aperture of the camera lens, so that the camera lens can be connected in a fitting manner.
