BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a camera accessory holder that allows accessories such as a remote control transmitter to be attached to a camera strap in consideration of portability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A holder for holding a remote control (hereinafter referred to as "remote control") transmitter to a camera strap has already been commercialized. The shape of the holder is shown in FIG.
It shows in (a)-(c).

FIG. 4A shows the upper surface of the holder, and FIG.
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a central cross section of FIG. 4A, and FIG. 4C is a diagram showing a back surface of the holder.

The holder 5 is provided with locking claws 5a and 5b for locking a remote control transmitter (not shown) and holes 5c and 5d. The hole 6 is attached to the strap 6 of the camera.
It was designed to be attached by passing through c and 5d.

[0005]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, when attaching the holder 5 for holding the remote control transmitter to the strap 6, the strap 6 is detached from the camera and then held as described above. It is necessary to pass through the holes 5c and 5d of the tool 5, which is a troublesome work for the user.

Further, in the case of a structure in which the strap cannot be removed from the camera, this holder 5 cannot be used.

(Object of the Invention) An object of the present invention is to provide an accessory holder for a camera which can be attached to a strap by a simple operation without removing the strap from the camera.

[0008]

According to the present invention, there is provided a locking portion for holding an accessory of a camera and a rising portion which is erected on a surface where the locking portion is provided at a tip end, on which a camera strap is hooked. And a hook portion surrounded by a U-shaped opening, and a space through which the strap passes due to the hook portion and the rising portion of the tip thereof and the bottom surface of the accessory held by the locking portion. To form.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below based on the illustrated embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a top view and a back view of an accessory holder according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a holder holding a remote control transmitter attached to a strap, and FIG. 3 is a remote controller transmission. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which a device and a holder for holding the transmitter are attached to a strap.

In these figures, 1 is a remote control transmitter holder, 2 is a remote control transmitter, and 3 is a camera strap.

The holder 1 is provided with locking claws 1a and 1b for locking the remote control transmitter 2, and a hook portion 1c surrounded by a U-shaped opening 1g is provided at the center. Has been. At both ends of the rising portion 1d at the tip of the hook portion 1c, extension portions 1e and 1f extending from the width direction of the hook portion 1c (longitudinal direction in FIG. 1) are formed.

The remote control transmitter 2 is provided with a fixed claw 2a and a movable claw 2b, and the movable claw 2b is shown in FIG.
Is constantly urged downwardly of the fixed claw 2a and the movable claw 2b.
Are adapted to engage with the engaging claws 1a and 1b of the holder 1, respectively.

In the structure described above, first, the fixed claw 2a of the remote control transmitter 2 is hooked on the locking claw 1a of the holder 1, and then the remote control transmitter 2 is strongly pressed against the holder 1. Then, the movable claw 2b once moves upward in FIG. 2 against the urging force of the spring 2c, and thereafter, the action of the spring 2c engages with the locking claw 1b, so that the remote control transmitter 2 is held by the holder 1. Will be held in.

When the remote controller transmitter 2 is pulled away from the holder 1 while pushing up the movable claw 2b with a finger (in FIG. 2), the remote controller transmitter 2 and the holder 1 are disengaged.

When the holder 1 is attached to the strap 3, an arbitrary portion of the strap 3 attached to the camera is attached to the opposite surface of the attachment 1 of the remote controller transmitter 2 of the holder 1 (see FIG. 1 (b)). From the surface shown in ()), it is inserted from the U-shaped opening 1g, and the rising portion 1d of the hook portion 1c of the holder 1 is passed over (hooked). This allows
The holder 1 can be attached to the strap 1. FIG. 3 shows the state at this time.

In the state shown in FIG. 3, the holder 1 tends to come off from the strap 3, but the extension 1e, 1f is provided at the rising portion 1d at the tip of the hook 1c, so carelessly. It does not come off.

After that, FIG. 2 shows a state in which the remote control transmitter 2 is engaged with the holder 1 as described above (at this time, the upper surface of the rising portion 1d and the remote control transmitter 2).
In this state, since the strap 3 is surrounded by the hook portion 1c, the rising portion 1d and the remote control transmitter 2, the strap 3 is not detached. Lost.

According to this embodiment, a hook portion 1c surrounded by a U-shaped opening 1g into which an arbitrary portion of the strap 3 can be inserted and a rising portion 1d are provided at the tip of the hook portion 1c.
When holding the remote control transmitter 2 in the holder 1, the remote control transmitter 2, the hook portion 1c, and the rising portion 1 at the tip of the hook portion 1
Since the space through which the strap 3 passes is formed by d, the holder 1 can be attached to the strap 3 by performing a simple attaching operation without removing the strap 3 from the camera. By engaging the remote control transmitter 2 with the holder 1, the detachment of the strap 3 can be completely prevented.

[0020]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Surrounded by a U-shaped opening that has a locking part that holds accessories for the camera and a rising part that is raised on the side where the locking part is provided at the tip where the camera strap is hooked. And a bottom portion of the accessory held by the locking portion forms a space through which the strap passes.

Therefore, the strap can be attached to the strap by a simple operation without removing it from the camera.
