Detailed Description

Example 1

As shown in fig. 4, the present embodiment discloses a camera mounting device, which includes a base 10, a connecting seat 30 and a rotating member 40, wherein the base 10 includes a main body portion and a pressing portion 13 connected together, and the main body portion and the pressing portion 13 are fixedly connected together; the pressing part 13 has a first pressing surface 131; the connecting seat 30 is movably sleeved on the pressing part 13, and the connecting seat 30 abuts against the main body part; the connecting seat 30 has a second pressing surface 312; the second abutting surface 312 and the first abutting surface 131 are sequentially distributed in the moving direction of the connecting seat 30; the rotating member 40 includes a rotating body portion 41 and a connecting body portion 42 which are connected, an outer surface of the rotating body portion 41 includes an arc surface, and the rotating body portion 41 is rotatably interposed between the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 312; the connecting body 42 is used for connection with a camera.

By increasing the distance between the connecting seat 30 and the base 10, the distance between the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 312 can be increased, so that the rotating body 41 can be released by the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 312, and at this time, the rotating body 41 can rotate. After the connecting body 42 is connected to the camera to be installed, the rotating body 41 can drive the camera to rotate, so as to adjust the direction of the window of the camera, and after the direction is adjusted, the first pressing surface 131 and the second pressing surface 312 are adjusted to clamp the rotating body 41 again.

The camera mounting apparatus of the present embodiment has advantages in that: the rotating body 41 is directly clamped between the base 10 and the connecting base 30, and the direction of the rotating body 41 can be adjusted by increasing the distance between the base 10 and the connecting base 30, so that the camera mounting device of the embodiment has a simple structure and fewer parts compared with the existing camera mounting device.

Preferably, the main body part and the pressing part 13 are fixed together by means of integral molding, which has the following advantages: the number of parts is reduced, assembly is not needed, the installation and the disassembly are convenient, and the cost is low.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, it is preferable that the camera mounting device further includes a locker 20, and the coupling holder 30 is coupled with the base 10 through the locker 20 in the following manner: the locker 20 is movably coupled to the base 10, the locker 20 is provided with a first pressing portion 22, the coupling holder 30 is provided with a second pressing portion 321, and the first pressing portion 22 and the second pressing portion 321 are press-fitted in a moving direction of the coupling holder 30. The locking member 20 may be movably coupled to the base 10 by a slider mechanism or may be coupled to the base 10 by a detachable coupling device. As long as the distance between the connecting base 30 and the base 10 can be adjusted, and the relative position can be fixed after the adjustment. Preferably, the locking member 20 is screwed to the base 10, and the adjustment is convenient as follows:

through forward rotation retaining member 20, can make retaining member 20 keep away from base 10, and then can make the first portion 22 that compresses tightly of retaining member 20 can keep away from second portion 321 that compresses tightly, first portion 22 that compresses tightly has produced the clearance with second portion 321 this moment, thereby can make connecting seat 30 can move towards the direction of keeping away from base 10, and rotating body 41 is supported the pressing surface 131 by first and is supported the pressing surface 312 with the second and loosen this moment, and the direction of rotation of rotating body 41 is adjustable.

Through the reverse rotation retaining member 20, can make retaining member 20 be close to base 10, and then can make the first portion of compressing tightly 22 of retaining member 20 be close to second portion of compressing tightly 321, connecting seat 30 is drawn close to base 10 along with second portion of compressing tightly 321 by first portion of compressing tightly 22, until first portion of compressing tightly 22 compresses tightly on second portion of compressing tightly 321, and rotating body 41 is pressed from both sides tightly by first face 131 and the second face 312 of compressing tightly, and at this moment, the position of rotating body 41 is fixed, and the direction of rotation of rotating body 41 is not adjustable.

Preferably, the connection holder 30 is rotatably provided on the base 10. The connecting section 30 of the present embodiment may be removably connected to the base 10 without the locking member 20. However, in the case where the link base 30 is directly movably connected to the base 10 so that the link base 30 can rotate about its own axis with respect to the base 10, the design cost and the construction cost are increased, and the adjustment of the camera in the three directions of R, T and P cannot be achieved. Therefore, in order to facilitate the connection holder 30 to be able to rotate about its own axis with respect to the base 10, the connection holder 30 of the present embodiment is connected to the base 10 by the locker 20. When the locker 20 is apart from the base 10 and a gap is generated between the first pressing part 22 and the second pressing part 321, not only the rotation direction of the rotating body 41 is adjustable, but also the coupling holder 30 can rotate about its axis. When the locker 20 approaches the base 10 until the first pressing part 22 is pressed against the second pressing part 321, the coupling holder 30 and the rotator 41 are in a non-adjustable state.

Preferably, the connecting block 30 has a mounting cavity, the mounting cavity of the connecting block 30 is a first mounting cavity 33, and the rotating body 41 is rotatably disposed in the first mounting cavity 33. The rotary body 41 is able to rotate in the first mounting cavity 33 about its own axis, where the own axis of the rotary body 41 refers to: the axis of the entire rotary body 41 is also the axis of the connecting body 42. The connecting socket 30 of the present embodiment not only can be coupled to the base 10 to loosen or clamp the rotary body portion 41, but also can provide a rotating space for the rotary body portion 41, thereby contributing to a reduction in the number of parts and a reduction in the occupied space of the entire camera mounting apparatus.

Preferably, the inner surface surrounding the first mounting cavity 33 is a first inner surface, the first inner surface includes a second abutting surface, the outer surface of the rotating body 41 is a rotating surface, and the rotating surface is rotationally matched with the second abutting surface. The second abutting surface is a circular arc surface. The rotating surface is a circular arc surface. The two ends of the connecting base 30 are respectively a first end 31 and a second end 32, the first end 31 is an open end communicated with the mounting cavity of the connecting base 30, and the second end 32 is connected with the base 10. The connecting body portion 42 extends from the first end 31 to the outside of the connecting socket 30. The second supports the pressure surface and is the arc surface, and the rotating surface lies in for the advantage of arc surface: not only can make rotor 41 can the rotation, moreover through the area of adjustment second to the pressure surface, can make the second to the pressure surface form spacingly to rotor 41, prevent that rotor 41 from breaking away from connecting seat 30 from first end 31 to it is spacing to need not set up limit structure or locating part in addition to carry out the axial to rotor 41, thereby is favorable to reducing the quantity of spare part and reduces whole camera installation device's occupation space. The opening of the first end 31 is suitably sized to allow the connecting body 42 to protrude and to limit the rotational body 41.

Preferably, the outer surface of the rotary body 41 comprises a non-slip surface 411, the non-slip surface 411 being in rotational engagement with the first inner surface. Specifically, the anti-slip surface 411 is rotationally engaged with the second pressing surface. The advantage of setting up antiskid face 411 lies in: when the first abutting surface 131 and the second abutting surface 312 clamp the rotating body 41, the rotating body 41 is not easy to rotate in the first mounting cavity 33 due to the anti-slip surface 411, so that the rotating member 40 can be reliably positioned at the backward position after being adjusted in direction. The anti-slip surface 411 may have a grid structure to increase the friction force with the second pressing surface.

Preferably, the first end 31 is provided with a direction-adjusting groove 313, and the direction-adjusting groove 313 extends from the first end 31 to the second end 32. The connecting body 42 extends from the first end 31 to the outside of the connecting base 30, and the rotating member 40 is rotatably engaged with the direction-adjusting groove 313.

When the locker 20 is spaced apart from the base 10 and a gap is generated between the first pressing portion 22 and the second pressing portion 321, the rotating body 41 can rotate not only about its axis but also in the direction-adjusting groove 313, and the coupling holder 30 can rotate about its axis. The orientation of the direction-adjusting groove 313 can be changed by rotating the connecting seat 30 around the axis thereof. As shown in fig. 1, the rotation of the rotating body 41 around its own axis is referred to as R-direction rotation, the rotation of the rotating body 41 in the direction-adjusting groove 313 is referred to as T-direction rotation, the rotation of the connecting base 30 around its own axis is referred to as P-direction rotation, and the R-direction rotation, the T-direction rotation and the P-direction rotation of the present embodiment are all stepless adjustments, i.e., the R-direction rotation, the T-direction rotation and the P-direction rotation can all be continuously adjusted, and the adjustment range is large.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 4, the installation cavity of the rotating member 40 is a second installation cavity 43, two ends of the second installation cavity 43 are open, the installation cavity of the base 10 is a third installation cavity 14, and two ends of the third installation cavity 14 are open. The second mounting cavity 43 is communicated with the third mounting cavity 14 to form a routing space. After the connecting body 42 is connected to the camera 50, the electric wire 52 of the camera 50 passes through the second mounting cavity 43 and the third mounting cavity 14 in sequence and extends out of the base 10. During the rotation of the rotating member 40 in the T direction, the electric wire 52 is easily pressed, thereby not only affecting the direction adjustment of the rotating member 40, but also easily damaging the electric wire 52. Therefore, in order not to affect the direction adjustment of the rotating member 40, and also to protect the electric wire 52, the end surface of the rotating body 41 of the present embodiment facing the base 10 is the first end surface 413, the first end surface 413 is provided with the first groove 412, and/or the end surface of the base 10 facing the rotating body 41 is the outer end surface, the outer end surface is provided with the second groove 132. The number of first grooves 412 may be 1, and the number of first grooves 412 is preferably at least 2, for example: the number of the first grooves 412 is 3, which ensures the supporting reliability of the first pressing surface 131 to the rotating body 41 and is less likely to press the electric wire 52. The depth of the second groove 132 is greater than the depth of the first groove 412, i.e., the distance from the bottom end of the second groove 132 to the outer end surface of the base 10 is greater than the distance from the bottom end of the first groove 412 to the first end surface 413.

The number of the second grooves 132 may be 1 or 2, and the number of the second grooves 132 is preferably at least 3, which ensures the supporting reliability of the first pressing surface 131 to the rotating body 41 and is not easy to press the electric wire 52. At least two second grooves 132 are uniformly distributed on the outer end surface of the base 10. The first groove 412 and the second groove 132 are recessed in opposite directions. Due to the presence of the first groove 412 and/or the second groove 132, the probability of the wire 52 being pinched can be reduced.

The first abutting surface 131 is located at the end of the base 10 facing the rotating body 41, and the more the number of the first grooves 412 and the second grooves 132 is, the less it is easy to press the electric wire 52 when the rotating member 40T rotates 90 degrees, but the lower reliability of abutting between the first end surface 413 and the first abutting surface 131 is easy to occur, and further the locking effect of the locking member 20 is reduced. The number of the first grooves 412 and the second grooves 132 may be determined according to actual circumstances.

The outer end surface of the base 10 is further provided with a relief groove 1311 so that the rotation member 40 can be more easily rotated to 90 degrees in the T direction. Specifically, the rotary body 41 has a spherical structure, and the surface of the relief groove 1311 is a circular arc surface. The number of the abdicating grooves 1311 may be 1, 2, 3, etc. The number of the escape grooves 1311 is preferably at least 2. The relief grooves 1311 and the second grooves 132 are spaced apart on the end surface of the base 10 facing the rotary body 41. For example, the number of the escape grooves 1311 is 3, which ensures the supporting reliability of the rotation body 41 by the first abutting surface 131, and enables the rotation member 40 to be more easily rotated in the T direction over a larger range.

The depth of the second groove 132 is greater than the depth of the abdication groove 1311, that is, the distance between the bottom end of the second groove 132 and the outer end surface of the base 10 is greater than the distance between the bottom end of the abdication groove 1311 and the outer end surface of the base 10. Has the advantages that: the depth of the abdicating groove 1311 is shallow, so that the support reliability of the outer end of the base 10, that is, the support reliability of the first pressing surface 131 on the rotating body 41 is ensured on the basis that the abdicating is possible and the rotating member 40T is made to rotate to a larger range.

If the first groove 412 and/or the second groove 132 are not provided and the pressing of the electric wire 52 does not occur, it is necessary to increase the diameter of the rotating body 41, the diameter of the third mounting cavity 14, and the diameter of the first mounting cavity 33, and therefore, another advantage of the present embodiment in providing the first groove 412 and/or the second groove 132 is: it is advantageous to reduce the diameter of the rotary body 41, the diameter of the third mounting chamber 14 and the diameter of the first mounting chamber 33.

As shown in fig. 2 and 4, the pressing portion 13 preferably has a mounting cavity, and both ends of the pressing portion 13 are an inner end and an outer end. The rotating body 41 is a spherical structure, the outer end of the pressing portion 13 supports the rotating body 41, and the rotating body 41 is partially located in the installation cavity of the pressing portion 13, which is beneficial to improving the supporting effect of the pressing portion 13 on the rotating body 41, so that the rotating body 41 can rotate relative to the pressing portion 13 more smoothly. The surface of the pressing portion 13 for supporting the rotational body portion 41 forms a first pressing surface 131. Specifically, the diameter of the end of the rotating body 41 toward the pressing portion 13 is smaller than the diameter of the outer end of the pressing portion 13, so that the rotating body 41 is partially located in the installation cavity of the pressing portion 13.

The inner end of the pressing part 13 is connected with the main body part. Both the first end 31 and the second end 32 are open ends communicating with the first mounting cavity 33. The rotating body 41 is fit-fitted with the connecting holder 30 from the first end 31, and the pressing portion 13 is fit-fitted with the connecting holder 30 from the second end 32. The first end face 413 of the rotational body 41 abuts on the first abutting face 131 of the abutting portion 13. The rotating body 41 and the pressing part 13 are both arranged in the inner cavity of the connecting seat 30, which is beneficial to saving space.

As shown in fig. 2, the main body part is a first main body part 11 and a second main body part 12, the first main body part 11 is provided with a first mounting hole 111, and the first main body part 11 can be connected to a mounting surface of a mounting site through a connector. The outer diameter of the first body portion 11 is larger than the outer diameter of the second body portion 12. The outer surface of the second body portion 12 is provided with external threads. The first body portion 11, the second body portion 12, and the pressing portion 13 may each have a hollow cylindrical configuration. The number of the first mounting holes 111 may be plural, for example, the number of the first mounting holes 111 is 3, and 3 first mounting holes 111 are uniformly distributed on the first body portion 11.

The locking member 20 includes a connecting portion 21 and a first pressing portion 22, the connecting portion 21 is connected to the first pressing portion 22, and the connecting portion 21 and the first pressing portion 22 may be integrally formed. The inner surface of the connecting portion 21 is provided with an internal thread, the connecting portion 21 is fitted on the second main body portion 12, and the connecting portion 21 is screwed with the second main body portion 12.

The second pressing portion 321 is disposed on the second end 32, an end surface of the second end 32 is a first rotating surface 322, one end surface of the second pressing portion 321 is in pressing fit with the first pressing portion 22, and the other end surface of the second pressing portion 321 is a first rotating surface 322.
