Clamping seat and self-timer including the same

The present invention is a holder, in particular, a clamping structure having a shape and elasticity, which enables a camera to be firmly held, and a self-timer including the holder.

Photography is one of the most popular activities at present. With the evolution of technology, photography is no longer limited to specific photographic equipment. There are quite a few technology products on the market that combine photography functions, such as mobile phones, watches, etc. .

For example, in addition to having a call function, the mobile phone has many advantages such as being portable and convenient, and thus has become an indispensable communication tool in modern life. However, a smart phone with a hand has a very sophisticated photographic lens, and it has excellent shooting images for both landscape and portrait.

In order to make good use of the camera function of the mobile phone, most users prefer to use the mobile phone to take a self-portrait or video recording, which is quite convenient because it is not necessary to be assisted by others. However, because the user is limited by the distance of the hand when taking a self-portrait, the captured image cannot have a wide viewing angle, or because the angle and the lens cannot be controlled properly, or when the hand is pressed, the hand shakes. Problems such as out of focus or poor image quality. In order to solve the above problems, there are quite a lot of self-timer or self-timer sticks on the market. The holders are made of metal or plastic to hold the mobile phone or the camera, and then the telescopic rods that connect the holders are used to adjust the subject. The distance provides a wider perspective of photography.

However, most of the grippers used in the self-timer or the self-timer on the market are fixed to the mobile phone through the adjustable wide-ply splint, or fixed by screws corresponding to the photographing device. When the user operates, the camera device needs to be placed on the self-timer, and then the appropriate position is adjusted or the corresponding screw is locked. The installation time is too long, which is the best time to miss the camera.

Moreover, frequent removal of the camera from the self-timer is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also may cause damage to the camera due to improper operation of the user. For example, when the screw is removed, the force on the camera may cause the thread on the camera. The hole is smoothed, resulting in problems such as the inability to install smoothly in the future.

In order to avoid the lack of a commercially available self-timer or a self-timer, the inventors have developed a holder having a predetermined shape for sandwiching a camera device, the holder comprising: a first clamping portion a second clamping portion, in the predetermined shape, a clamping space is defined between the first clamping portion and a first clamping portion; a connecting portion connecting the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion; The assembly member is connected to the first clamping portion, the second clamping portion or the connecting portion; the first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion has a plastic elasticity, by applying force The first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion causes a deformation of the predetermined shape for the imaging device to be placed in the clamping space, and the first clamping portion or And shaping and elasticizing the second clamping portion, so that the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion firmly clamp the imaging device in the predetermined shape.

Further, the surface of the first clamping portion facing the clamping space is defined as a first clamping surface, and the first clamping surface protrudes from a first clamping block, and the second clamping portion faces the clamping space The surface is defined as a second clamping surface. The first clamping block and the second clamping surface maintain a clamping gap between the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface. The clamping gap is smaller than the thickness of the camera. . Preferably, the first clamping block is provided with a first contact surface on a surface facing the clamping space, and the first contact surface is a slope.

Or, at least one first pressing portion protrudes from the first clamping surface or/and the second clamping surface protrudes from at least one second pressing portion, the first pressing portion or/and the The second pressing portion is pressed against the photographing device in the predetermined shape. It should be particularly noted that the first pressing portion and the second pressing portion There is a reserved distance between the portions, and the reserved distance is smaller than the thickness of the photographing device in the preset shape.

The present invention is also a self-timer comprising the above-mentioned holder, the self-timer further comprising: a grip; a rod connecting the grip and the assembly.

The holder of the present invention and the self-timer including the holder have the following effects:

1. The user only needs to apply a slight force to the first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion to quickly place the imaging device between the first clamping portion and the first clamping portion. In the clamping space, the first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion are further provided with a plastic elasticity, so that the first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion of the micro deformation are restored to the The shape is preset and pressed tightly against the surface of the camera, thereby firmly clamping the camera.

2. The first clamping portion or/and the second clamping portion having the shaping elasticity does not cause damage to the imaging device during use, and further provides partial coating protection.

3. The first clamping block protruding on the first clamping surface provides a larger contact area when the first clamping block is in contact with the surface of the imaging device due to a special bevel structure, thereby increasing the clamping掣力.

4. The clamping gap can be customized according to the thickness of different camera devices, thereby being applicable to various types of shooting devices.

5. The first pressing portion protruding on the first clamping surface or/and the second pressing portion protruding from the second clamping surface can increase the contact area against the imaging device during the clamping process. Thereby, the photographing device is more tightly held to prevent the camera from falling and causing damage.
