The disclosure relates to a tripod stand for supporting equipment such as a TV camera or the like comprising a mounting (10) for the equipment having a central axis and three telescopic legs (17, 18) extending from the mounting, the legs having head ends (40) pivotally attached to the mounting at locations equi-spaced around said central axis of the mounting to allow the legs to fold together in a closed position and outwardly to an erect position in which they diverge in tripod form from the mounting, and foot ends (50, 51) to engage the ground or other surface on wich the stand is to be used. Each leg comprises a plurality of slidably engaged interlocking channel section members (17, 18, 19) facing outwardly of said axis to extend and retract with respect to one another. One of said members (17) is being pivotally attached to the mounting to swing between said folded and erect positions and each of the further members having menas (35, 45, 48) to lock the member in any position of extension/retraction with respect to the adjacent member nearest said mounting to vary the stand height. |
