Abstract
A tripod button mechanism includes an angle position locking structure fixedly arranged on a body of a tripod. A button structure includes a button disposed rotatably on a leg shaft sleeve of the tripod through a first shaft. The button joint joints with the angle limitation structure to lock an opening angle of a supporting leg of the tripod. The tripod button mechanism includes a supporting structure abutting against the button when the joint joints with the limitation structure, and an extension line between the supporting position of the support structure and the joint intersects with an extension line of the supporting leg extending towards one end where the angle position locking structure is located.
