Description

Technical field

The claimed utility model relates to the field of photographic technology, namely to devices for carrying photographic equipment and video cameras.

State of the art

During the shooting process, photographers often have to hold the camera with one hand. At the same time, the hand holding the camera gets tired quite quickly, it needs rest. The opportunity to put the camera on a flat and clean surface is often not available due to the nature of the shooting and location conditions. In addition, event photographers working in crowded environments are sometimes faced with being hit or pushed by the hand, which can cause the camera to fall and fail.

A belt for a camera is known from the prior art (see patent WO 2014190359 dated November 27, 2014), which includes a belt assembly having upper and lower attachment points for reliable reversible attachment of the belt to the upper groove of the camera and the attachment points of the lower thread of the camera tripod. The top and bottom attachment points include a flexible material having a substantially rigid dimension to connect the strap to the top and bottom camera attachment points. The material at the attachment points has sufficient rigidity to maintain the desired shape of the strap assembly. The bottom attachment point allows you to attach the strap between the underside of the camera and any type of plate attached to the bottom of the camera, or the bottom thread of the camera tripod.

A universal hand strap is known for SLRs and camcorders (see Universal Hand Strap for SLRs and camcorders - found at http://foton-sar.m/catalog/ruchnoy-remen-universalnyy-dlya-zerkalok-i-videokamer), which wraps not only the back of the hand, but also additionally attached to the wrist.

A hand strap is known (see JJC HS-PROIM hand strap with an Area Swiss platform - found at https://812photo.ru/katalog/dlya-vsekri-brendov/remni/kistevoy-remen-jjc-hs-pro1m-s-ploshchadkoy -arca-swiss/) designed for most DSLRs with a 1/4" tripod socket (standard hole for cameras). Features an Arca Swisse metal base plate for attaching to other devices of this standard.

The belts presented above ensure that the load is placed on the back of the hand with the weight distributed over its most part, and therefore the hand gets tired quickly during photography.

The closest in technical essence to the claimed device is a wrist strap (see Wrist strap for a camera - found in https://www.hobbyportal.ru/poyasa-remni/remen-na-zapyaste-dlya-fotoapparata-53512/) , made of genuine leather, for a small digital or rangefinder camera. Such a strap allows you to walk all day with a camera on your arm, while freeing your hand. Quickly unfastens both from the camera and from the hand (it has holster buttons).

The disadvantage of this solution is the limited use due to the unreliability of the fixing elements. The holster buttons used can easily come loose and cause the camera to fall, and therefore this product is only intended for carrying light equipment.

Utility Model Disclosure

The objective of the proposed technical solution is to create a hand strap that holds the camera on the wrist without holding the camera with your fingers.

The technical result is the expansion of the range of wrist straps.

To achieve the task and the technical result, it is proposed to create a wrist strap, consisting of a base, which is a strap made in the form of a right angle, the inner corner of which is rounded so that the wrist strap fits snugly against the wrist, two straps of a smaller thickness than the base, with holes for adjusting the length, one of which is attached at one end of the base, the other at the top of the corner, while at the top of the corner and at the second end of the base there is a fixing headset for fastening the straps. The straps are attached to the base with two rivets or other connecting fittings and have different lengths. The strap located at the top of the corner is longer than the strap located at one of the ends of the base.

The hand strap is also equipped with a half ring with a twisted ring connected to it, a power carabiner with a swivel and a screw-in screw. This accessory is a removable component of the wrist strap and may vary depending on the type of mounting of a particular camera and the requirements of the photographer. In addition, a leather case with buttons and a protective screen are provided to protect the camera body from metal fittings.

The screw-in is an intermediate link between the camera socket and the carabiner. Semi-ring - transitional fittings from the strap of the hand belt to the mounting fittings. Carabiner and twisted ring - types of mounting accessories for the camera.

Implementation of the utility model

In this section of the description, the most preferred embodiment of the utility model will be given, which, however, does not limit other possible embodiments explicitly following from the application materials and understandable to a specialist.

The hand strap can be attached to either the side mount of the camera or to the tripod thread on the bottom of the camera.

The hand strap is attached to the camera in two ways: either through the side mounting of the camera (using removable fittings), or by means of a screw-screw, screwed into the universal threaded hole located at the bottom of the camera. These methods can be used at the discretion of the photographer both separately and simultaneously. For simultaneous use, an additional special strap is required.

A strap attached to the top of the corner is needed to adjust the distance from the photographer's hand to the camera body. The strap, attached to one end of the base, wraps around the wrist and connects to the fixing headset on the other side of the base, thereby closing the two sides of the strap around the wrist. Adjustment of this strap allows you to most comfortably fix the wrist strap on your hand.
