    摘要: A motor includes a rotor housing, at least one magnet operably coupled to the rotor housing, a stator disposed within the rotor housing, and at least one sensor. The magnet corresponds to a rotor pole that provides a magnetic flux including a main flux and a leakage flux. The stator includes a plurality of stator poles. The main flux is configured to extend in a first direction towards at least one of the stator poles. The at least one sensor is configured to measure the leakage flux. The leakage flux is configured to extend in a second direction towards the at least one sensor. The first direction lies on a radial plane and the second direction lies out of the radial plane.

    摘要: A gimbal structure includes an electric motor including an electric motor output shaft and an electric motor housing, a gimbal shaft assembly coupled with the electric motor output shaft, and a slidable lock mechanism arranged at one of the electric motor housing and the gimbal shaft assembly. The slidable lock mechanism is configured to switch between an engaged state and a disengaged state. In the engaged state, the slidable lock mechanism engages with another one of the electric motor housing and the gimbal shaft assembly to limit rotation of the gimbal shaft assembly relative to the electric motor. In the disengaged state, the slidable lock mechanism disengages from the other one of the electric motor housing and the gimbal shaft assembly to release restriction between the gimbal shaft assembly and the electric motor.

    摘要: A lens bracket assembly for supporting an imaging device. The imaging device includes a body and a lens connected to the body. The lens bracket assembly includes a mounting plate, a supporting plate configured for carrying the imaging device, and a bracket. The mounting plate includes a first surface and two inner sidewalls extended from two opposing ends of the first surface along a direction substantially perpendicular to the first surface. The two inner sidewalls provide first sliding slots. The supporting plate includes a first side and two outer sidewalls providing second sliding slots, and is slidably disposed on the mounting plate with the second sliding slots matching the first sliding slots at corresponding positions. The bracket is coupled to the first side of the supporting plate, and includes a shape that matches the lens of the imaging device.

    摘要: A gimbal for controlling an optical device includes a control device and a controlling assembly. The control device is configured to receive an action instruction and generate a control instruction based on the action instruction. The action instruction includes a press action instruction, and the control instruction includes a switch control instruction for switching the gimbal from a first operating mode to a second operating mode. The first operating mode and the second operating mode cause different relative movements between the gimbal and the optical device. The controlling assembly is configured to receive the control instruction from the control device and generate a performing instruction based on the control instruction for controlling the optical device.

    摘要: A carrier for controlling torque delivery to a payload includes a carrier component configured to rotate about a carrier axis, a payload support structure coupled to the carrier component and configured to support the payload, and a rotational device coupled to the payload support structure. The rotational device includes a non-rotating portion directly coupled to the payload support structure and a rotating portion configured to rotate freely to provide a supplemental torque to the payload support structure to compensate for a torque transmission delay from the carrier component to the payload support structure when the carrier component rotates about the carrier axis.

    摘要: A gimbal mechanism includes a first actuator configured to provide rotation about a central actuator axis at a first actuator speed, a second actuator co-axial with the first actuator and configured to provide rotation about the central actuator axis at a second actuator speed, and a differential member including a differential gear operatively coupled to the first actuator and the second actuator and a shaft extending between the first actuator and the second actuator. The shaft has an input end coupled to the differential gear and an output end coupled to the payload. The differential member is configured to rotate freely about a differential member axis extending along a length of the shaft. The first actuator and the second actuator are configured to cause the payload to rotate about the central actuator axis, the differential member axis, or both, based on the first actuator speed and the second actuator speed.
