Abstract

The present invention discloses a combined camera supporter and stick which comprises: a stick body; fastening means mounted on the top end portion of the stick body; and a cover openably and closably mounted on the top end portion of the stick body for covering the fastening means to prevent the fastening means from being caught by a user’s hand, whereby the combined camera supporter and stick can be used as a stick at ordinary times by closing the cover for covering the bolt mounted on the top end portion of the stick body, and can be used as a camera supporter by opening the cover for assembling the stick body with a camera by means of the fastening means at the time of taking photographs.

Description

COMBINED CAMERA SUPPORTER AND STICK
Technical Field The present invention relates to a combined camera supporter and stick, which can be used as a camera supporter by mounting a bolt to a stick and assembling the stick with a camera .
Background Art Conventionally, there has been proposed a one-pole type camera supporter capable of being easily used as a camera supporter. However, such a camera supporter is too big and inconvenient to carry around. Furthermore, such a camera supporter is improper to be used as a stick because a bolt projects upwardly.
Disclosure of Invention Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a combined camera supporter and stick, in which a bolt is mounted on the top end portion of a stick body and the top end portion of the stick body is covered with a cover so that the combined camera supporter and stick can be used as a stick at ordinary times with the top of the stick body covered by the cover and can be used as a camera supporter with the stick body assembled with a camera by means of the bolt while the cover being opened at the time of taking photographs, thereby ensuring multipurpose function and convenience for the combined camera supporter and stick. Brief Description of Drawings Further objects and advantages of the invention can be more fully understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a detailed view of the present device; FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing an assembled state for the purpose of using as a stick; and FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing an assembled state for the purpose of using as a camera supporter.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention The present invention will now be described in detail in connection with a preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings. A combined camera supporter and stick according to the present device includes a stick body 1, a bolt 2 mounted on the top end portion of the stick body 1, and a cover 3 openably and closably mounted on the top end portion of the stick body 1 for covering the bolt 2. The combined camera supporter and stick can be used as a stick at ordinary times by closing the cover 3 for covering the bolt 2 mounted on the top end portion of the stick body 1, and can be used as a camera supporter by opening the cover 3 for assembling the stick body 1 with a camera 10 by means of the bolt 2 at the time of taking photographs. At this time, the combined camera supporter and stick serves to support the camera on the ground so as to allow a user to take photographs without any shake. In drawings, a connection string 4 is attached on a string- j ->
attaching ring 8 for preventing loss of the cover 3 when the cover 3 is opened, and freely rotated in a state where the connection string 4 is attached on the string-attaching ring 8. The present device can be hung on a knapsack or a bag by means of the connection string 4 so as to prevent loss of the stick. The reference numeral 9 designates a ring holding jaw for preventing a downward movement of the string-attaching ring 8 when the cover 3 is opened. The reference numeral 6 designates a female screw, the reference numeral 7 designates a male screw. The cover 3 and the stick body 1 can be coupled by means of the male screw 7 and the female screw 6, thereby forming a space 5 for protecting the bolt 2 when the present device is used as the stick. The cover 3 can be in a form capable of being separated from the stick as described above, or can be mounted on the stick in an openable manner.
Industrial Applicability As described above, the combined camera supporter and stick of the present device can be used as a stick at ordinary times with the top end portion of the stick body covered by the cover as well as can be used as a camera supporter with the stick body assembled with a camera by means of the bolt while the cover being opened at the time of taking photographs, thereby ensuring multipurpose function and convenience for the combined camera supporter and stick.

Claims

What is claimed is :
1. A combined camera supporter and stick comprising: a stick body; fastening means mounted on the top end portion of the stick body; and a cover openably and closably mounted on the top end portion of the stick body for covering the fastening means to prevent the fastening means from being caught by a user' s hand, whereby the combined camera supporter and stick can be used as a stick at ordinary times by closing the cover for covering the bolt mounted on the top end portion of the stick body, and can be used as a camera supporter by opening the cover for assembling the stick body with a camera by means of the fastening means at the time of taking photographs.
