Unless otherwise indicated herein, the materials described in this section are not prior art to the claims in this application and are not admitted to being prior art by inclusion in this section.
The subject matter in general relates to a utility model of Bluetooth selfie sticks aids. More particularly, but not exclusively, the subject matter pertains to a multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid.
A shooting aid, as the name suggests, is a device used to assist users in taking pictures. Most of the conventional shooting aids are in the form of selfie sticks, which offer several advantages to users such as user-convenience and in terms of carrying and using them. However, the conventional shooting aids are not portable, difficult to be adjusted flexibly and fail to meet requirements of current users and existing issues.
In view of the foregoing discussion, there is a need to provide an improved multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid that will overcome the foresaid drawbacks of the existing art.
In an embodiment, a multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid is disclosed. The Bluetooth beat aid comprises a clamping assembly comprising a retractable clamping member and a fixed member. The retractable clamping member configured to clamp a mobile device comprises a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion. The first clamping portion is orthogonal to the second clamping portion. The retractable clamping member is configured to move away from, and towards the fixing member of the clamping assembly. Further, the fixed member of the clamping assembly is rotatably connected to the fixed seat. A hollow handle comprises a telescopic rod rotatably connected to the fixed seat and a Bluetooth controller which is provided towards a second handle end.
This disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not limitation in the accompanying figures. Elements illustrated in the figures are not necessarily drawn to scale, in which like references indicate similar elements and in which:
Reference numerals of components of the utility model of multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid 100 are provided hereunder:

In an embodiment, the fixing plate 304 may be rectangular in shape comprising four corners, a first fixing side 314 and a second fixing side 316.
In an embodiment, the fixing plate 304 may be fastened to the second clamping portion 212 of the retractable clamping member 206 through a plurality of fastening members. The fastening members may be screws that may pass through a plurality of through holes defined at the corners of the fixing plate 304, which are received by a plurality of holes defined on the second clamping portion 212.
In an embodiment, a sliding groove 306 may be defined on the first fixing side 314 along a vertical direction (refer
In an embodiment, the silicone pad 308 may be bonded to the second fixing side 316 of the fixing plate 304. The silicone pad 308 may provide anti-slip effect to a back portion of the mobile phone, when the mobile phone gets clamped to the clamping assembly 104, thereby ensuring that the mobile phone doesn't not get scratched.
In an embodiment, a protective silicone pad 318 may be provided on the second step 220 of the clamping assembly 104. When the mobile phone is clamped, the protective silicone pad 318 may provide support to the mobile phone.
In an embodiment, an interior of the second clamping portion 212 of the retractable clamping member 206 may define a hollow space in which a spring connection block 302 may be provided.
In an embodiment, the guide member 222 may include a pair of springs 310 and a sliding member 312. The spring connection block 302 may be configured to limit the movement of the pair of springs 310.
When the multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid 100 is in idle state or not in an operative state, the pair of springs 310 are in a retracted position. That is to say, the springs 310 may be embedded within the guide member 222. Alternatively, when the multifunctional handheld Bluetooth beat aid 100 is in the operative state, the retractable member 206 moves away from the fixed member 208. The sliding member 312 may slide over the sliding groove 306 resulting in the movement of at least a portion of the springs 310 towards the spring connection block 302.

In an embodiment, the telescopic rod 402 may comprise a first telescopic end 404 and a second telescopic end 406. A second damping groove 414 may be provided at the first telescopic end 404 of the telescopic rod 402.
In an embodiment, the first telescopic end 404 may be operable to extend from the hollow handle 102, based on requirements by users. The second telescopic end 406 may reside inside the hollow handle 102. The telescopic rod 402 adopts a hidden design to make its usage convenient for users. The users may be able to adjust the telescopic rod 402 according to their needs, for instance, obtaining a wide-angle selfie. Further, the first telescopic end 404 may be rotatably coupled to the fixed seat 106.
In an embodiment, the fixed seat 106 may further comprise a first side 408 and a second side 410. The first side 408 may face the hollow handle 102, while the second side 410 faces away from the hollow handle 102. The first side 410 of the fixed seat 106 may be provided with a pair of damping grooves 412. Each of the damping grooves 412 may be opposite to each other and spaced apart defining a gap.
In an embodiment, the second damping groove 414 may be provided between the first damping grooves 412 and may be coupled to the first damping grooves 412.
In an embodiment, a damping ring 416 may be provided between the first damping grooves 412 and the second damping groove 414.
In an embodiment, the damping ring 416 may not be a part of the fixed seat 106 and may be externally introduced between the between the first damping grooves 412 and the second damping groove 414. Alternatively, the damping ring 416 may be a part of the fixed seat 106.
In an embodiment, two damping rings 416 may be provided between the first damping grooves 412 and the second damping groove 414.
In an embodiment, a pair of damping pins 418 may be provided such that, each of the damping pins 418 may be inserted into the second damping groove 414 through the first damping grooves 412 and the damping ring 416. The instant insertion ensures the clamping of the fixed seat 106 with the hollow handle 102. Further, such engagement enables the hollow handle 102 and the fixing seat 106 to turn vertically about an angle between 0°-180°. That is to say the movement in the vertical direction 0°-180° enables the damping pins 418 to realize damping effect when the hollow handle 102 rotates at a certain angle, thereby maintaining the stability of overall structure after adjustment.
Further, in an embodiment, a damping shaft 420 may be provided on the fixed seat 106. The damping shaft 420 may be configured to rotatably couple the clamping assembly 104 to the fixed seat 106 to realize 360° horizontal rotation of the clamping assembly 104.
