Furthermore, the first threaded connection hole 110 has a plurality of holes with different hole diameters.
Furthermore, the second threaded connection hole 210 has a plurality of holes with different hole diameters.
The present invention uses a support plate that can rotate relative to the base. When in use, the support plate expands relative to the base to be parallel for use. When not in use, the support plate rotates and folds relative to the base, and the two are perpendicular to each other. Compared with existing technology, the present invention has the advantages of a simple and reasonable structure, foldability, space-saving, and easy storage and transportation.
Specifically, the first threaded connection hole 110 is used to connect to a support element such as a tripod.
Specifically, the second threaded connection hole 210 is used to connect with a telescope mount, camera head, and other components.
Specifically, as shown in
Referring to
Specifically, the third threaded connection hole 230 is used to further connect with a telescope mount, camera head, and other components to increase the expansion capability of this product to meet the needs of various external components.
Specifically, the through slot 250 is used to thread a strap that is used, for example, to tie down objects placed on the support bench.

The role of the external bracket 30 is to extend the use of the product outward for external telescope mounts, camera heads, and other components. It further increases the versatility of the product and can connect to a variety of components to increase its use.
The sliding external bracket 30 extends outward when in use. When not in use, it is stowed in the lower portion of the support plate 20 and takes up no space, making it easy to store and transport.
Referring to
The external bracket 30 is provided with longitudinally extending bar grooves 330 parallel to the sliding grooves 240. A plurality of fifth threaded connection holes 260 are arranged on the support plate 20 above the bar grooves 330. The plurality of fifth threaded connection holes 260 are arranged in the same direction as the direction of movement of the external bracket 30. The locking element 40 is composed of a locking bolt 410 and a knob 420. The locking bolt 410 is threadedly connected to any one of the fifth threaded connection holes 260 through the bar groove 330, and the knob 420 is closely attached to the bottom surface of the external bracket 30.
When the specific position of the external bracket 30 to be adjusted is required, turning the knob 420 loosens the locking bolt 410. Under this state, the knob 420 is separated from the bottom surface of the external bracket 30 so that the external bracket 30 can slide freely. When locking is required, turning the knob 420 tightens the locking bolt 410. The knob 420 is closely attached to the bottom surface of the external bracket 30 to clamp the external bracket 30 by the knob 420 and the support plate 20 and to restrict the position of the external bracket 30.
Specifically, the plurality of fifth threaded connection holes 260 are arranged in the same direction as the external bracket 30 moves, and the function is that when the external bracket 30 moves, the locking bolt 410 below selects a different fifth threaded connection hole 260 for screwing according to its movement to satisfy the function of the external bracket 30 moving outward.
