Abstract: A joint portion for angle adjustment arranged between a leg base portion and a leg support member of an imaging equipment-grade tripod includes a joint fixation member with a joint, a pole member having an upper end connected by the joint of the joint fixation member a lower end connected to the leg base portion, a sleeve provided below the joint fixation member and fitting to the joint fixation member, and a coil spring wound around a central axis of the pole member and pressing the sleeve upward. With the joint portion being fixed by fitting between the joint fixation member and the sleeve, the sleeve is pressed downward to release the fitting between the joint fixation member and the sleeve, so that the joint portion is released.

Abstract: A slider apparatus for filming includes: an elongate rail member having planar first traveling surfaces and planar second traveling surfaces inclined in relation to the first traveling surfaces; and a slider having first bearings movably and rotatably supported on the first traveling surfaces, second bearings movably and rotatably supported on the second traveling surfaces, and an initial setting mechanism for advancing and retracting the second bearings in relation to one of the second traveling surfaces to adjust contact pressure applied to the one of the second traveling surfaces by the second bearings.

Abstract: A tripod head comprising a resilient force adjusting mechanism which includes a rotating operation part, a cam which is coupled to the rotating operation part and slides with the rotation of the rotating operation part, and a cam follower coming into contact with cam surfaces of the cam, wherein the cam follower is supported by a counterbalancing mechanism, and the counterbalancing mechanism is configured in such a manner that the magnitude of a resilient force to be imparted on the spring is variable in accordance with a position where the cam follower comes into contact with the cam.
