Abstract

The system has a carrying strap that is connected with a camera e.g. TV camera, such that the strap allows the load of the camera to be distributed on both shoulders, where the strap tightly fits at the body of a user. A support element is located at a rear of the support system. A camera lens is additional secured through the support system. A breast belt and/or waist belt is integrated in the support system with a rain protection device. A main connection is provided between the support system and the camera.

Description

[0001] Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Tragsystem für professionelle Film- und Fernsehkameras. The present invention relates to a support system for professional film and television cameras.

[0002] Bis heute wurden solche Kameras am integrierten Handgriff getragen. Da die Kameras relativ schwer sind, ist dies auf Dauer sehr mühsam, und es kann durch das einseitige Tragen Rückenprobleme entstehen. To date, such cameras have been worn on the integrated handle. Since the cameras are relatively heavy, this is very tedious in the long run, and it can be caused by the unilateral wearing back problems.

[0003] Es gibt bereits eine einfache Tragart mit Hilfe eines Gurtes, wobei aber die Last immer noch einseitig auf einer Schulter liegt und diese nur punktuell belastet. There is already a simple support with the help of a belt, but the load is still one-sided on a shoulder and this charged only at certain points.

[0004] Das Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, die ganze Last der Kamera gleichmässig auf beide Schultern zu verteilen und zu gewährleisten, dass das Gewicht möglichst eng am Körper anliegt. The aim of the present invention is to distribute the entire load of the camera evenly on both shoulders and to ensure that the weight is as close as possible to the body.

[0005] Gelöst wird die erfindungsgemässe Aufgabe dadurch, dass ein spezielles Tragsystem so ausgebildet wird, dass dieses auf einfache und rasche Art mit der Kamera verbunden werden kann und alle wichtigen Funktionsteile an der Kamera immer noch problemlos zugänglich sind. Zudem sollen die Funktionen nicht beeinträchtigt werden. The object of the invention is achieved in that a special support system is designed so that this can be easily and quickly connected to the camera and all important functional parts of the camera are still easily accessible. In addition, the functions should not be affected.

[0006] Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform besteht darin, dass mindestens eine Hauptverbindung zwischen Tragsystem und Kamera einerseits unter dem integrierten Handgriff der Kamera durchführt und andererseits unter dem Schulterschutz verläuft. Letzteres gewährleistet, dass die Verbindung zum Stativ zugänglich ist. Während den Aufnahmen bleibt das Tragsystem an der Kamera, denn dieses stört beim Filmen nicht. A preferred embodiment is that at least one main connection between the support system and camera on the one hand performs under the integrated handle of the camera and on the other hand runs under the shoulder protection. The latter ensures that the connection to the tripod is accessible. During the shooting, the support system remains on the camera, because this does not interfere with the shooting.

[0007] Idealerweise befindet sich das Tragelement an der flachen Rückseite der Kamera. Bei einer speziellen Ausführungsform wird die Kameralinse durch das Tragsystem zusätzlich gesichert. Die Tragvorrichtung weist mindestens eine Tragschlaufe auf. Vorteilhafterweise kann ein Brust- oder Bauchgurt integriert werden. Ideally, the support element is located on the flat rear side of the camera. In a special embodiment, the camera lens is additionally secured by the support system. The carrying device has at least one carrying loop. Advantageously, a chest or abdominal belt can be integrated.

[0008] Ein Regenschutz kann bei Bedarf montiert werden. A rain cover can be mounted if necessary.
