This application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application CN201420735269.X filed on Nov. 28, 2014, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The invention relates to the Pan-tilt Hand Holder.
The video recording or shooting angle of existing photograph equipment is difficult to adjust, while the pan-tilt is able to rotate at any angle, so as to achieve no-dead-shooting result. However, the rotation of the pan-tilt is achieved by the internal motor, so the control system is needed herein to control it; and pan-tilt itself is not provided with any display equipment, so the image captured cannot be seen immediately. Therefore, the pan-tilt mostly acts as a fixed photographing equipment, and cannot incorporate the advantages such as multi-angle photographing etc. into the handheld photographing.
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to overcome the drawbacks that the handheld photographing cannot be incorporated into pan-tilt of the current technology, and to provide a pan-tilt hand holder.
The invention uses the following technical scheme to solve the above-mentioned technical problems:

Mobile terminals such as mobile phones etc. are provided with a WIFI transmission equipment. In the current art, many pan-tilts also have WIFI transmission equipment, which enables the acquirement of the images shot with pan-tilt through mobile terminals such as mobile phones etc. When using the invention, the operators just need to hold the pan-tilt hand holder to operate the control device with just one hand, so as to achieve the photographing angle control of pan-tilt, at this time, there is no need to rotate the hand holder. And at the same time while operating, the captured images can be viewed through a mobile phone clapped on the pan-tilt hand holder. The whole operation can be achieved just with one hand, which is quite simple. And the power device fully ensures electricity power of pan-tilt and control device. Thus, the invention achieves not only the handheld movement operation of the pan-tilt, but also the operation with just one hand, which is convenient for use.
Preferably, the control device includes a potentiometer roller, a roller panel and a main control circuit board, wherein,
the roller panel is installed on the frame body;
the main control circuit board is configured to control the movement of the pan-tilt, and the main control circuit board is connected with the potentiometer roller.
When photographing, the potentiometer roller is operated, and the main control circuit board will receive the operation signal, then it will control the pan-tilt to rotate. The potentiometer roller stated here includes but not just limited to the form of roller, it could be various components which can transfer operation signals such as the rocker etc., all of these fall within the protection scope of the invention.
Preferably, the main control circuit board is installed inside the frame stated through a fixed support. The fixed support can fix the main control circuit board much more firmly.
Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a torsion spring seat, a torsion spring shaft, a torsion spring and a rotary gripper, wherein:
the torsion spring seat is fixed on the frame body;
the torsion spring shaft is installed through the torsion spring, the torsion spring seat and the rotary gripper;
the two ends of the torsion spring are respectively installed closely on the torsion spring seat and the rotary gripper.
When operating, the mobile phone can be put inside the rotary gripper by pulling it open, and then, under the elastic force of the torsion spring, the rotary gripper is rotated to clamp the mobile phone so as to ensure that the mobile phone will not slip down.
Preferably, the rotary gripper includes: a clapping part and an operating part. In case the rotary gripper is needed to pull open, pressing the operating part with one finger is enough, which is convenient to operate.
Preferably, a foam is provided above the operating part. The foam can strengthen the handfeel of the fingers while touching it.
Preferably, the power device includes a power supply box and a box cover. Inside the power supply box, the batteries can be placed, and whenever the batteries are needed to replace, just open the box cover to replace them.
Preferably, the power supply device further includes a power switch and a switch button. The power switch can be triggered by operating the switch button, so as to operate to perform the open or close of the circuit.
Preferably, the frame body includes a platform part, and the clamping mechanism is installed on the upper surface of the platform part, and the pan-tilt is installed on the bottom surface of the platform part. Thus, the space of the frame can be fully configured to realize the miniaturization of the pan-tilt hand holder.
Preferably, the frame body includes a gripping part, on which the rubber handguard is provided. The rubber handguard can increase the friction to avoid slipping.
Preferably, the frame body includes a seat part, which is provided at the lower end of the gripping part. When the seat part is not needed or the photographing shall be fixed, the pan-tilt hand holder can be put on the platform such as desktop etc. through the seat part.
Preferably, the frame body includes a left frame body and a right frame body. Through this arrangement, the wires, the main control circuit board and the power supply box etc. can be arranged inside the frame.
In this invention, the preferred conditions stated above can be combined randomly on the basis that they meet the common sense of this field, that's to say, the various kinds of preferred embodiments of this invention can be realized.
The positive effect of this invention lies in that: through the use of the invention, it achieves not only the handheld movement operation of the pan-tilt, but also the operation with just one hand, which is convenient for use.
Now, a much clear and complete instruction will be given below to this invention with a preferred embodiment of this invention combining the attached figures.
This invention discloses a pan-tilt hand holder. As shown by
As shown by
The gripping part 12 is used for gripping operation, and the rubber handguard 16 and rubber handguard 17 are provided in the front end of the gripping part 12, and the rubber handguard 18 is provided in the rear end of the gripping part 12. The rubber handguard can increase the friction to avoid slipping.
