Abstract: A coupler (mount) is disclosed that is configured to releasably connect an image capture device and an accessory. The coupler includes a shaft and a lever that is operatively connected to the shaft, and is repositionable between unlocked and locked positions as well as between disengaged and engaged positions. When the coupler is in the unlocked positioned, the image capture device and the accessory are movable in relation to each other, and when the coupler is in the locked positioned, the image capture device and the accessory are fixed in relation to each other. When the coupler is in the disengaged position, the shaft is removable from the image capture device and the accessory, and when the coupler is in the engaged position, the shaft is non-removable from the image capture device and the accessory.

Abstract: An accessory for an image capture device is disclosed that includes: a body; a rotatable first support that is configured for connection to the image capture device; a second support that is pivotably reconfigurable between stowed and deployed configurations; and a third support including first and second legs that are pivotably connected to the body such that the third support is reconfigurable between collapsed and expanded configurations. In the stowed configuration, the second support is concealed within the body, and in the deployed configuration, the second support extends outwardly from the body to facilitate connection of the accessory to an ancillary product. In the collapsed configuration, the third support defines a grip for the image capture device, and in the expanded configuration, the body defines a third leg that cooperates with the first and second legs to provide a freestanding base for the image capture device.

Abstract: Various embodiments of an interconnect mechanism facilitate the connection of an image capture device to an accessory (either directly or indirectly). In one embodiment, the interconnect mechanism includes a rotatable support that is movable between a series (plurality) of discrete rotational positions through an unlimited range of motion. In another embodiment, the interconnect mechanism includes a pivotable support, which allows for reconfiguration of the interconnect mechanism between a stowed configuration, in which the support is concealed, and a deployed configuration, in which the support is exposed so as to facilitate the connection of the interconnect mechanism and the accessory. In yet another embodiment, the interconnect mechanism includes protrusions that are pivotably reconfigurable between a stowed configuration, in which the protrusions are rotatably fixed, and a deployed configuration, in which the protrusions are rotatable through a range of motion about an axis of rotation.

Abstract: An image capture apparatus including a monolithic front heatsink, a connection mechanism, and an image sensor and lens assembly (ISLA). The monolithic front heatsink includes a planar surface and a connection mechanism located adjacent to the planar surface. The connection mechanism includes: a protrusion and connection projections extending from the protrusion. The ISLA is coupled to the monolithic front heat sink and a portion of the ISLA extends through the protrusion of the monolithic front heatsink.
