ROTATING ASSEMBLY, SUPPORTING STAND, AND PHOTOGRAPHING DEVICE
20220316649 · 2022-10-06 ·

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of photography and videography equipment, and in particular to a rotating assembly, a supporting stand, and a photographing device. The rotating assembly comprises a head adjusting structure including a first button, a first toothed disc, a second toothed disc, and a first elastic member. The first toothed disc is fixedly connected with a first head connector. The first elastic member is configured to enable teeth on the second toothed disc to mesh with teeth on the first toothed disc. The first button is configured to overcome an elastic force of the first elastic member under the action of an external force, so that the teeth on the second toothed disc are disengaged from the teeth on the first toothed disc. The angle of the first head connector fixedly connected to the first toothed disc is adjusted by using the first button, the first toothed disc, the second toothed disc, and the first elastic member, so that the angle of an external device, such as an image acquisition apparatus, mounted to the first head connector can be adjusted without using a separate head, which contributes to cost saving.

Foldable gimbal photographing device

A gimbal photographing device includes a fuselage; a folding mechanism, connected to the fuselage; and a gimbal camera, connected to the folding mechanism. The gimbal camera is foldable and unfoldable relative to the fuselage via the folding mechanism. A power switch is disposed on the fuselage. The folding mechanism includes a base connected to the gimbal camera. When the gimbal camera is unfolded relative to the fuselage, the base is configured to abut against the power switch to turn on the gimbal photographing device.

CAMERA GIMBAL AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF USE
20220317551 · 2022-10-06 ·

A camera support includes a post, a gimbal assembly, and a mounting member. The mounting member couples the gimbal assembly to the post for rotation of the gimbal assembly about a pan axis coincident with a longitudinal axis of symmetry of the post. The gimbal assembly includes a roll cradle, a tilt body and a second mounting member. The roll cradle is movably secured to the first mounting member for rotation about a roll axis perpendicular to the pan axis. The tilt body is movably mounted to the roll cradle for rotation about a tilt axis perpendicular to both the pan axis and the roll axis. The second mounting member is connected to the tilt body for attaching a camera to the tilt body.
