Definitions

  • the present invention relates to boom stands useful for supporting lights, microphones and the like in a range of angles from the vertical and to a tilt adjustment device for use in such a stand.
  • boom stands In the photography industry, lighting is critical to the setting up of photographic shots. Often, light sources have to be positioned above the subject being photographed. In some cases, the light source must also be positioned at a specific angle from the vertical in order to the light to strike the subject at the appropriate angle.
  • the positioning of the light source has traditionally been accomplished using a boom stand.
  • boom stands include a telescoping boom arm mounted onto a central column with the central column being held in a substantially vertical position by supporting legs.
  • the stand is usually provided with a mechanism for allowing the boom arm to pivot relative to the column, and to be locked into position when the boom arm is at the desired angle with respect to the column.
  • the light source is attached to the end of the telescoping boom arm and its height above the floor is adjusted by adjusting the angle of the boom relative to the column.
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,047,684 discloses a stand useful for supporting musical instruments such as cymbals and includes a hollow centre post having collapsible legs attached thereto, a stem (boom arm) pivotally attached to the centre post by a filter block assembly, and a lock mechanism for locking the stem in place.
  • the device is only adequate for supporting smaller items such as cymbals.
  • 2,031,097 discloses a collapsible stand having a hollow central column with attached folding legs, a boom arm pivotally attached to the central column by a tilter mechanism, and a means for locking the boom into place.
  • the tilter mechanism is a key feature of the device because it permits the device to support heavy items such as large lights or cameras.
  • a tilt adjustment device for use between an upright tubular support member and a boom arm member in a boom stand.
  • the device includes first and second fixtures adapted to be coupled to the respective members, one of the fixtures including a pair of arms and the other including a boss which is received between the arms and which has respective end faces confronting corresponding inner faces of the arms.
  • Means is provided coupling the fixtures together for pivotal movement about an axis extending between the arms through the said boss for permitting tilting of the boom arm member with respect to the support member in use.
  • the coupling means includes a shaft extending along the said axis, clamping means carried by the shaft and operable to draw the respective arms inwardly for clamping the arms against the end faces of the boss for securing the fixtures in selected relative positions about said axis, and respective friction washers disposed between the end faces of the boss and the confronting faces of the arms.
  • Each of the washers is restrained against turning with respect to one of the fixtures and has a friction face against which the other fixture moves during adjustment of the relative angular positions of the fixtures.
  • Each of the friction faces includes an annular area surrounding the shaft which is relieved with respect to the remainder of the friction face surrounding the relieved area, so that frictional forces engendered between the washer and the corresponding face of the fixture when the fixtures are secured in a selective relative position react at locations spaced radially from the shaft for resisting slipping of the fixtures with respect to one another under load.
  • the relieved areas on the friction washers ensure that gripping between the friction washers and the relevant fixture takes place at locations spaced radially outwardly from the shaft, for maximizing the holding force between the fixtures. At the same time, the relieved areas resist any inward local deformation that might otherwise occur close to the shaft that could reduce the holding force.
  • the tilt adjustment device provided by the invention may be used as part of a complete boom stand, or as an adaptor for converting an existing stand (e.g. a light stand) into an adjustable boom stand.

  • Locking mechanism 48 includes a handle or lever 50 which can be tightened or loosened. When engaged by tightening handle 50, lock mechanism 48 holds collar 30 at a fixed angle relative to clevis 26. Between brackets 38 and collar 30 is a washer 40 which helps to decrease the friction between the brackets and the collar when the collar is moved relative to clevis 26.

One end of the threaded rod passes through an aperture in bracket 38 and washer 40. Handle 50 is threaded onto the other end of the threaded rod. When handle 50 is turned clockwise, the handle is pressed against bracket 38 which in turn causes the bracket to press against collar 30. When handle 50 is turned clockwise a sufficient number of turns, the force pressing bracket 38 and collar 30 together is sufficiently great to lock collar 30 in place. When handle 50 turned counter clockwise, the force pressing bracket 38 and collar 30 together decreases sufficiently to allow the collar to pivot. When lock mechanism 48 is released, collar 30 is free to pivot relative to clevis 26. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that a variety of other locking mechanisms may be used.
  • tube 28 When collar 30 is in its vertical position, tube 28 may be passed directly though both the collar, clevis 26 and tube 62; therefore, tube 28 may be telescoped out of or into column 12. When the collar is in its vertical position, tube 28 may be fully drawn into column 12 for storage. Alternatively, tube 28 may be raised out of tube 62 and locked into place by locking mechanism 58; in this orientation, the stand may operate as a traditional vertical stand, and a device may be mounted onto bracket 46.
  • Stand 10 may be converted from a vertical stand as shown in Fig. 2 into a boom stand as shown in Fig. 3 by releasing lock mechanism 58, completely withdrawing tube 28 out of column 12, releasing lock mechanism 48, pivoting collar 30 into the desired position, engaging lock mechanism 48 to lock collar 30 into place, passing tube 28 back through collar 30 and then engaging lock mechanism 58 to lock tube 28 into place.

It will be seen that the washer has a central opening 148 which receives the shaft and an annular area 150 surrounding the shaft which is relieved with respect to the remainder of the friction face 152 surrounding the relieved area. In other words, the surface of area 150 is lower (inwardly depressed) with respect to surface area 152. Accordingly, when the washer makes contact with the confronting inner face of arm 132, the contact area is represented by area 152 and area 150 remains substantially clear of the arm.

  • the washer arrangement can be reversed and the washers carried by inner faces of the arms 130 and 132.
  • Shaft 135 is screw-threaded along its length and is received in a complimentarily screw-threaded opening in the outer clamping washer 138.
  • the other clamping washer 136 is the same but has a plain central opening.
  • a thrust bearing 154 is provided on shaft 135.
  • a plain washer 156 is fixed to the shaft so that the shaft can be turned by turning the handle. This of course has the effect of causing the outer clamping washer 138 to move along the shaft. For example, by turning the handle clockwise, washer 138 will move towards the handle.
  • Washer 136 will react against the handle through the thrust bearing 154 and washer 156 so that the arms 130 and 132 will be pressed inwardly from opposite sides, clamping the two fixtures 122, 124 together. Turning the shaft in the opposite direction will of course release the clamping effect.
  • Shaft 135 in fact extends through a pair of horizontal slots in the respective arms 130, 132, the slot in arm 130 being partly visible at 160; a similar slot in arm 132 is not visible.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de réglage de décentrement utilisé comme partie d'un trépied de perche supportant des lumières, des microphones et similaires, ou comme adaptateur pour transformer un trépied existant en un trépied de perche. Ce dispositif comprend des premier et deuxième dispositifs de fixation adaptés pour être couplés respectivement à un élément tubulaire vertical du trépied et à une flèche. Un des accessoires comprend une paire de bras et l'autre comprend une protubérance qui vient se loger entre les bras et qui présente des faces d'extrémité correspondante situées en regard, et correspondant aux faces intérieures des bras. Les dispositifs de fixation sont couplés ensemble en vue de leur pivotement autour d'un axe s'étendant entre les bras jusqu'à la protubérance pour permettre le pivotement de la flèche par rapport à l'élément de support. Un axe s'étend le long de l'axe et des rondelles de serrages sont prévues sur ce dernier pour attirer les bras correspondants vers l'intérieur et les serrer contre les faces d'extrémité de la protubérance pour fixer le bras de flèche dans une position angulaire sélectionnée. Des rondelles de friction placées entre les faces d'extrémité de la protubérance et les faces situées en regard des bras sont bloquées contre tout pivotement par rapport à la protubérance et comportent des faces de frottement qui appuient contre les bras. Chaque rondelle présente une zone annulaire évidée autour de l'arbre et une zone surélevée correspondante autour de sa partie marginale de telle sorte que les forces de friction engendrées entre la rondelle et le bras réagissent en des emplacements espacés dans le sens radial par rapport à l'arbre pour résister au glissement des dispositifs de fixation l'un par rapport à l'autre lors de l'application d'une charge à la flèche.
