ABSTRACT:
A tripod including a tripod head supported on tripod legs and formed of two symmetrical half shells and defining a ball socket between the half shells, a camera platform adapted for holding a camera and having a ball at the bottom mounted in the ball socket of the tripod head, a hexagon nut mounted within a hexagonal hole in one half shell of the tripod head, a lock screw inserted through a respective mounting hole in each half shell of the tripod head and threaded into the hexagon nut and then screwed up with a cap nut, wherein turning the lock screw in one direction causes the two half shells of the tripod head to be released from each other for permitting the ball of the camera platform to be turned to the desired angle; turning the lock screw in the reversed direction causes the ball of the camera platform to be firmly retained in the ball socket of the tripod head in position.
