Description

A method of manufacturing a vehicle camera base

technical field

The invention relates to the technical field of vehicle-mounted cameras, in particular to a method for manufacturing a vehicle-mounted camera base.

Background technique

With the development of science and technology, camera technology has been widely used in the field of traffic and active safety control. For example, in driverless technology, it is necessary to use camera components to collect image information and send the image information to the driving computer. After the computer calculates the image information, the driverless car can be driven according to the calculation result.

However, in the above fields, it is necessary to ensure that the camera assembly has extremely high pointing accuracy, and in the camera assembly, the camera base has extremely high precision and stability, which is the prerequisite for the camera assembly to have extremely high pointing accuracy.

In the traditional craft, there are two ways to make the base of the camera. The first one is to use plastic as the raw material of the base of the camera, which can take advantage of the characteristics of plastic such as easy cutting and strong plasticity, so that the base of the camera made of plastic can be made of plastic in the later stage. During processing, the plastic camera base can be guaranteed to have extremely high precision in post-processing without clamping by the machine tool. However, since the plastic is prone to deformation when encountering high temperature, this reduces the stability of the plastic camera base in high temperature environments. Therefore, if plastic is used as the raw material for the camera base, when the camera assembly is used in an outdoor high-temperature environment, the pointing accuracy of the camera assembly will be reduced due to the low stability of the plastic camera base. The second is to use metal as the raw material for the camera base. Although the metal camera base made of metal can have high stability in a harsh environment, due to the hardness of the metal, it is difficult to process it in the later stage. During the process, the post-processing of the base of the metal camera needs to be clamped by the machine tool. However, since multiple parts of the base of the metal camera need to be processed, post-processing can only be completed by clamping it multiple times. However, If multiple clamping methods are used for post-processing, the accuracy of the metal camera base will be reduced, resulting in a decrease in the pointing accuracy of the camera assembly due to the low precision of the metal camera base.

In practical applications, the processing machine tool needs to clamp the clamping area before cutting the body area. Furthermore, the firmness of the connection between the clamping area and the body area will directly affect the accuracy of post-processing. The clamping area and the main body area are connected together by splicing, and the looseness of the connection will reduce the accuracy of post-processing. In the embodiment of the present invention, the main body area and the clamping area can be molded by die-casting. Specifically, according to the corresponding Customize the mold for the shape of the vehicle-mounted camera, and die-cast the base of the vehicle-mounted camera at one time.
