Translated Patent
To provide a device that is able to prevent a cable from being caught and a connector from being separated while achieving a thickness reduction in a width direction of an apparatus body.SOLUTION: A device 101 has a device body having a front side, a rear side and a side face disposed between them. The side face has a plurality of inclined faces including a first inclined face and a second inclined face. Each of the plurality of inclined faces includes a first end and a second end. The first end of each of the plurality of inclined faces is located nearer to the rear side than the second end. The first end of each of the plurality of inclined faces is located nearer to an optical axis than the second end in a width direction. The plurality of inclined faces are located so as not to overlap one other as viewed from the width direction and arranged such that some of them overlap as viewed from an optical axis direction. A plurality of external connection terminals are provided on the first inclination face. The second inclination face is provided with one external connection terminal displaced in the width direction and in a height direction orthogonal to the optical axis from all the external connection terminals of the first inclination face.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
the present invention reduces the pluggability of the cable with respect to the external connection terminal even when a plurality of external connection terminals are arranged on the side surface in the width direction of the device main body, while reducing the width of the apparatus main body such as an imaging device in the width direction. Provided is a technique for preventing a cable from being caught or a connector from being disconnected without the need for the same.

TNC Exclusive: Canon working on a very unique Lens Style Camera that features adjustable flange distance under a super-compact lens body. It sounds very futuristic, but why Canon needs a variable flange distance- inside an Inter-changeable Lens-style Smart Camera? Maybe they are working to adapt various lenses of different mount system.
What about the throat diameter of EF/EF-S, EF-M, and RF Mount?
We know that Canon EF and EF-S have 54mm throat diameter and the EF-M mount has 47mm throat diameter and the newest addition RF mount also has 54mm throat diameter. So, not only adjustable flange distance? they also working on a Hybrid Mount to adapt all lenses.

We have spotted a patent were you can clearly see Canon working on a hybrid Mount Video aka Cinema Camera. Let’s go step by step to understand how the Canon Hybrid Mount Camera works
1. Canon Hybrid Mount Camera is Reality and Not-Just a Rumor
Yes, We have discovered patent that clearly shows Canon is working on Hybrid Mount camera. But, as per the patents Canon is initially working on Cinema camera with Hybrid Mount. In near future they may also implement the same technology to Canon Mirrorless Cameras or DSLRs.
2. How Canon Hybrid Mount Camera Work ?
- Once use attaches the lens camera power – ON the camera, the Mount detection unit gets activated.
- Once the camera detects the type of Lens used in the camera, it opens up it’s dedicated user-interface options for particular lens mount.
From the flow-chart below you can understand the mode of operation of a Hybrid Mount camera once the lens is attached to it.
So, finally we have the Hybrid camera patents. And in general once a patent get registered it roughly take two or three years to become a reality. So, if everything goes well we may see a hybrid mount camera sometime in 2022 or may be 2023.
