Description

Tripod. The invention relates to a tripod with your tripod legs in their spread position against (read slipping outwards through collapsible Holding devices, chains, cords or the like. Can be determined. With the known Tripods of this type were the cords or chains led from leg to leg. Wanted to you then give the tripod legs a different spread position than the current one If the length of these cords or chains corresponded to the length of these old devices each change for itself.

It is also known to use rigid holding devices, rods or the like. from the tripod legs Bach a common holding member that is in the middle between the tripod legs are arranged and, if necessary, also finitely your tripod plate connected to lead. But here too, when changing the spread position, if not the arrangement as with an umbrella, its articulated support members finitely connected to a common, adjustable tube, is taken, the lengths of the holding devices can be changed individually.

According to the invention, changing the length (1 "-r Holding devices. Chains, cords or the like. Achieved in that these holding devices from the three tripod legs to the tripod head and through a common one Member, e.g. B. a ring, can be tightened at the same time. The celebration of all three Tripod legs can be made with a single movement, namely by pulling down the Ring possible. This increases the time it takes to set up the tripod safely limited. The new locking device can also be attached when packing the tripod stay and requires little space.

According to the invention, the holding device can still have a better effect are thereby achieved, (leave resilient intermediate links on the holding devices switched on% \ - earth.

The drawing shows the subject matter of the invention on an atisfiilirtnigslieisliiel, namely: Fig. i the tripod during set-up, Fig. 2 the set-up tripod after you have fixed the holding devices.

The tripod legs b are folded together in a known manner your tripod head @x, which is finitely provided with the fastening screw. According to the Invention is a string or chain at a sufficient distance from the lower one The foot end is attached to the three tripod feet b and guided to your tripod head a. A common locking ring d is arranged displaceably over all three cords c. To fold up or set up the tripod, the ring d is pushed upwards. so that the cords c hang loosely. When the tripod is set up, the ring d pulled down until all three cords c are tightened. A slip the legs outwards is then excluded.

On the holding devices (cords, chains, etc.), springy Intermediate links must be switched on. In the drawing there is a helical spring for this f attached under the tripod head a, on which the upper ends of the three cords c are attached.
