Abstract: A support head for an optical or video-photographic apparatus, having a first body traversed by a first axis of rotation with respect to a base of the head, a second body coupled in a rotary manner to the first body a third body traversed by a second axis of rotation and being coupled in a rotary manner to the second body. A user may lock by a single movement of a control member both the relative rotation of the first and second bodies about the first axis and the rotation of the second and third bodies about the second axis. The lock may be a tie-rod extended from the control member along the second axis and a slider connected to the tie-rod and interposed between the first body and the second body configured to lock the relative rotation of the second body with respect to the third body.

Abstract: A support (1; 100) for videophotographic equipment (2; 200), comprises a plate (3; 3?) fixable by suitable fixing means (5; 5?) to an item of video-photographic equipment (2; 200) to be supported, support elements (7; 7?) hinged on said plate (3; 3?) by means of respective hinge means (8; 8?) so as to be moved between a closed position (Y) in which said support elements (7; 7?) are folded onto said plate (3; 3?) and at least one open position (Z) in which said support elements (7; 7?) are opened out from said plate (3; 3?) to support the latter, said hinge means (8; 8?) comprise a resilient element (20; 20?) that is housed in a receiving seat (22; 22?) defined in said plate (3; 3?) and exerts on hinge portions (14, 15; 14?, 15?) of said support elements (7; 7?) a thrust force which thrusts said hinge portions (14, 15; 14?, 15?) against walls (23; 23?) of said seat (22; 22?) to brake the rotation of said support elements (7; 7?) in relation to said plate (3; 3?), the resilient element comprises at least one sp

Abstract: A support head for an optical or video-photographic apparatus, comprises a first body (302) traversed by a first axis (Z) of rotation of the apparatus with respect to a base of the head, a second body (303) coupled in a rotary manner to the first body in order to rotate about the first axis, a third body (304) traversed by a second axis (X) of rotation of the apparatus with respect to a base of the head, this second axis being substantially perpendicular to the first axis, and the third body being coupled in a rotary manner to the second body in order to rotate about this second axis, as well as locking means (330) able to lock, by a single movement of a control member (331) which may be carried out directly by a user, both the relative rotation of the first and second bodies (302, 303) about the first axis (Z) and the rotation of the second and third bodies (303, 304) about the second axis Y.

Abstract: A support head for an optical or video-photographic apparatus comprises a first body (2) including a pin (7) extended along a first axis (Y) of rotation of the apparatus with respect to a base of the head, a second body (3) coupled in a rotary manner to the pin of first body in order to rotate about the first axis, a third body (4) traversed by a second axis (X) of rotation substantially perpendicular to the first axis and coupled in a rotary manner to the second body in order to rotate about the second axis and locking means (30) able to lock, by a single movement of a control member (31) which may be carried out directly by a user, both the relative rotation of the first and second bodies about the first axis and the relative rotation of the second and third bodies about the second axis.
