Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic device that executes a predetermined process and a photographing device that photographs a subject.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a vehicle-mounted camera that captures a subject outside a vehicle is mounted on a vehicle, and the vehicle-mounted camera and a car navigation system are widely linked. For example, an in-vehicle camera is attached to the front of an automobile, and the position of an object that obstructs vehicle travel is detected using a photographed image captured by the in-vehicle camera, and the position of the obstacle is used as a car navigation monitor. Display or mount an in-vehicle camera on the back of the car, take a picture of the back of the car, which is difficult to see with a mirror alone, and display the shot image on a car navigation monitor to avoid car crashes can do.

  In recent years, in-vehicle cameras equipped with fish-eye lenses that perform wide-angle photography with an angle of view of 180 ° or more are attached to the four corners of an automobile, and the images taken with these in-vehicle cameras are combined to create a surrounding area of the automobile. It has also been performed to generate a bird's-eye view image (see, for example, Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3). By displaying such a bird's-eye view image on the monitor for car navigation, for example, it is possible to confirm the position of the car with respect to the white line drawn in the parking lot. You can park.

Here, in-vehicle cameras are often attached to the exterior of a car, so water is often splashed in rainy weather or when the car is washed, so that water will not enter the camera and cause damage. In general, it is processed. In particular, in-vehicle cameras are equipped with a harness for connecting a board housed in a camera casing and a car navigation system, and transmitting captured images to the car navigation system, and the camera casing is perforated. It is important to reliably close the gap between the harness opening and the harness passing through the harness opening. In this regard, Patent Document 4 describes a technique in which the outer periphery of the harness is covered with a thick packing, and the harness is fixed to the camera housing together with the packing with a pressing plate. According to the technique described in Patent Document 4, the gap between the harness opening and the harness is closed by the packing, and further, the packing is pressed against the camera housing by the holding plate, so that the camera can be reliably waterproofed. it can.

  However, the cables that make up the harness have irregular shapes because multiple wires are housed in a thin rubber tube, etc. Even if you try to cover it with packing and press it with a holding plate, the surface pressure applied to the cable is uneven. There is a problem that the outer shape of the cable is deformed by the pressing force and the waterproof function becomes unstable.

  Further, such a problem is not limited to only the photographing apparatus, but is a problem that occurs in the general field of using an electronic device to which a cable is attached.

  In view of the above circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide an electronic apparatus and a photographing apparatus that can be reliably waterproofed with a simple structure.

The electronic device of the present invention that achieves the above object is

  According to the electronic apparatus of the present invention, the portion of the cable corresponding to the insertion port is reinforced by the reinforcing member, and the outer shape of the cable is maintained by the rigidity of the reinforcing member even when the gap member is strongly pressed against the cable. Therefore, the gap between the cable and the housing can be stably blocked, and the electronic device can be reliably waterproofed. In addition, by applying a reinforcing member having a smooth outer shape, the gap member contacts the cable with a uniform surface pressure, and the electronic device can be reliably waterproofed over the entire circumference of the cable.

  In the electronic device of the present invention, it is preferable that the tube is formed by insert molding a reinforcing member.

  By insert-molding the reinforcing member, the process of attaching the reinforcing member to the tube is omitted, and the manufacturing process is simplified.

Further, in the electronic device of the present invention, the tube is formed by embedding a reinforcing member by insert molding, and a convex portion that closes a gap between the casing and the outer surface of the portion where the reinforcing member is embedded. With
It is preferable that the convex part of a reinforcement member plays the role of a clearance gap member.

  Providing the reinforcing member with the convex portion eliminates the need to newly prepare a gap member, thereby reducing the number of parts and reducing the manufacturing cost.

  In the electronic device of the present invention, it is preferable that the tube has abutting portions having an outer diameter larger than the diameter of the insertion port at portions corresponding to the inner side and the outer side of the insertion port.

  According to a preferred form of the electronic device of the present invention, when the cable is inserted into the electronic device from the insertion port, the abutting portion hits the housing between the inside and the outside of the insertion port so that the cable does not come out of the housing. Fixed. For this reason, screwing for attaching the cable to the housing can be omitted, and the number of parts and the manufacturing process can be reduced.

Further, in the electronic device of the present invention, the reinforcing member has a shape that covers the outer surface of the tube and closes the gap between the case and the case, and is fixed to the case.
The gap member is preferably a member in which the reinforcing member plays the role.

  Since the reinforcing member itself closes the gap between the cable and the casing, and the reinforcing member is directly fixed to the casing, the electronic device can be reliably waterproofed with a simple configuration.

Further, an imaging device of the present invention that achieves the above object includes an imaging component for imaging a subject,
A cable mounted on the imaging component and electrically connecting the imaging component and an external device;
A housing in which an imaging component is housed and provided with an insertion port through which a cable passes;
In the imaging device provided with a gap member that closes the gap between the cable and the housing,

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the electronic device which can be reliably waterproofed with a simple structure, and an imaging device can be provided.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an arrangement position of a vehicle-mounted camera that is an embodiment of the present invention.

  The in-vehicle camera 10 is mounted with lenses in front, rear, right direction, and left direction at a total of four locations on the front, back, and left and right sides outside the automobile 1. In the present embodiment, the in-vehicle camera 10 is provided with a fisheye lens for performing wide-angle shooting, and each of the four in-vehicle cameras 10 is connected to a car navigation system mounted in the automobile 1.

  FIG. 2 is an external perspective view of the in-vehicle camera 10.

  The in-vehicle camera 10 is arranged on the back of the in-vehicle camera 10 in terms of appearance, a lens barrel 140 that holds the lens 141, a main body case 110 including a front case 111 and a rear case 112. A hose 130 connected to the cleaning liquid tank (not shown) and attached along the upper portion of the main body housing 110, and a harness 150 for connecting the in-vehicle camera 10 and the car navigation system are provided. The main body casing 110 is an example of a casing according to the present invention, and the harness 150 includes an example of a cable according to the present invention.

  The main body casing 110 is waterproofed by the packing 120 sandwiched between the front casing 111 and the rear casing 112. Further, the upper portion of the front casing 111 is formed with an eaves 113 protruding from the front of the lens 141 to block the lens 141 from being exposed to rain and direct sunlight. Since this in-vehicle camera 10 is attached to the outside of the automobile 1, it is likely to get dirty due to rain or mud. However, if the lens 141 becomes dirty, the image quality of the photographed image deteriorates. When the lens 141 becomes dirty, when the user presses the lens cleaning switch prepared in the automobile 1, the cleaning liquid stored in the cleaning liquid tank is jetted from the nozzle 131 through the hose 130, and the lens 141 is cleaned.

  FIG. 3 is a functional block diagram of the in-vehicle camera 10.

  The in-vehicle camera 10 includes a photographing optical system 11 and a signal processing unit 12.

  The photographing optical system 11 includes a lens 141 that forms an image of subject light and a CCD 160 that generates an imaging signal representing the subject light.

  In addition, the signal processing unit 12 includes an A / D conversion unit 171 that converts an imaging signal generated by the CCD 160 into digital captured image data, and an image processing unit 172 that performs predetermined image processing such as gamma correction on the captured image data. The vehicle 1 is equipped with a memory 173 that is used as a temporary memory during image processing, a control unit 174 that controls various elements constituting the in-vehicle camera 10, and captured image data that has undergone image processing. An external I / F 175 for sending to a car navigation system is also provided. In addition to the various elements shown in FIG. 3, the signal processing unit 12 of the in-vehicle camera 10 includes a power supply unit that receives power supply from the outside, but is not directly related to the present invention. Illustration is omitted.

  The car navigation system installed in the car 1 includes a “road guidance mode” that displays a route to the destination on the display screen, and a “peripheral display” that displays a peripheral image overlooking the periphery of the car 1 on the display screen. "Mode" is installed. When the “peripheral display mode” is selected by the user, an instruction to start photographing is transmitted from the car navigation system to each of the four cameras 10.

  In each camera 10, when an instruction to start shooting is transmitted via the external I / F 175, the subject light that has passed through the lens 141 is imaged on the CCD 160, and an imaging signal is generated by the CCD 160. In the present embodiment, a fish-eye lens is applied as the lens 141, and each camera 10 captures a subject within an angle of view of about 180 ° centering on the direction in which the lens 141 faces. The generated imaging signal is read by the A / D converter 171 and converted into digital captured image data. The captured image data is subjected to image processing in the image processing unit 172, and then sent to the car navigation system via the external I / F 175.

  In the car navigation system, four captured images generated by the four cameras 10 are transmitted, and the four captured images are combined to generate a peripheral image overlooking the periphery of the automobile 1. The generated peripheral image is displayed on the display screen of the car navigation system. A series of processes as described above are performed at predetermined timings, and the peripheral images on the display screen are updated as needed.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a peripheral image displayed on the display screen.

  FIG. 4 shows a peripheral image 21 when the automobile 1 in the parking lot is viewed from above. A car image 21a representing the car 1 is displayed at the center of the peripheral image 21, and a white line image 21b representing a white line of a parking lot that is a subject around the car 1 is displayed so as to surround the car image 21a. ing. When the automobile 1 moves, the position of the white line image 21b moves according to the movement position. The user can easily park the automobile 1 at a desired position by checking the peripheral image 21 displayed on the display screen.

  Here, since the vehicle-mounted camera 10 is mounted outside the automobile 1, it may be exposed to rain or the like. For this reason, the in-vehicle camera 10 is waterproofed by the packing 120 shown in FIG. 2 closing the gap between the front casing 111 and the rear casing 112 and preventing the eaves 113 from splashing the lens 141 with water. It is illustrated. The harness 150 is connected to the car navigation system through a harness port provided in the rear housing 112 (corresponding to an example of an insertion port in the present invention; described later). Waterproofing is given between. Below, the waterproof process between the harness 150 and a harness opening | mouth is demonstrated in detail.

  FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the vehicle-mounted camera 10 as viewed from the side.

  As shown in FIG. 5, a lens 141 is fixed to the front surface of the front casing 111 via a lens mount 142, and a CCD 160 is disposed behind the lens 141. Further, a camera board 1701 on which various elements constituting the signal processing unit 12 shown in FIG. 3 are mounted is attached to the CCD 160, and a power supply unit (not shown) and the like are further behind the camera board 1701. A mounted power board 1702 is provided. A combination of the CCD 160, the camera substrate 1701, and the power substrate 1702 corresponds to an example of an electronic component in the electronic apparatus of the present invention and an example of an imaging component in the photographing apparatus of the present invention. In addition, a harness port 112a through which the harness 150 is passed is formed in the rear surface of the rear housing 112, and the harness 150 connects the camera board 1701 and the car navigation system through the harness port 112a.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating the harness 150.

  The harness 150 includes a thin rubber tube 152, a plurality of electric wires 151 housed in the tube 152, and a connector connected to the plurality of electric wires 151 for transmitting and receiving data between the camera board 1701 and the car navigation system. 154 and a metal cylindrical member 153. The cylindrical member 153 is bonded to a position near the tip of the tube 152 by an adhesive 1501. The tube 152 corresponds to an example of a tube according to the present invention, and the cylindrical member 153 corresponds to an example of a reinforcing member according to the present invention.

  The distal end side of the harness 150 provided with the connector 154 is inserted into the in-vehicle camera 10 and attached to the in-vehicle camera 10.

  FIG. 7 is a view of the harness 150 attached to the in-vehicle camera 10 as viewed from the back side of the in-vehicle camera 10.

  A connector housing 1701a into which the connector 154 of the harness 150 is inserted is provided on the back surface of the camera board 1701 also shown in FIG. The harness 150 that has passed through the harness port 112a shown in FIG. 5 is attached to the camera board 1701 by inserting the connector 154 into the connector housing 1701a.

  FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing the vicinity of the harness port 112a of the in-vehicle camera 10 to which the harness 150 is attached.

  The harness 150 is passed through the harness port 112a formed in the rear housing 112, and the rear end is connected to the car navigation system. In the harness 150 that has passed through the harness port 112a, a gap R1 between the cylindrical member 153 and the harness port 112a is closed with a packing 1121. The packing 1121 corresponds to an example of a gap member according to the present invention.

  The packing 1121 is pressed toward the rear casing 112 by the pressing plate 1122 and is screwed to the rear casing 112 by the mounting screws 1123. For example, even if water is infiltrated through the gap between the press plate 1122 and the tube 152 of the harness 150, the gap R1 between the cylindrical member 153 and the harness port 112a is blocked by the packing 1121. The problem that water is infiltrated into the rear casing 112 is avoided.

  Here, the packing 1121 is tightly pressed against the cylindrical member 153 of the harness 150 in order to close the gap R1 between the cylindrical member 153 and the harness port 112a. In the harness 150, since the plurality of electric wires 151 are accommodated in the thin rubber tube 152, the outer surface of the tube 152 is distorted. When the tube 152 is pressed directly by the packing 1121, the tube 152 is uniformly pressed. May not be applied, or the tube 152 may be deformed, resulting in a gap between the harness 150 and the harness port 112a. However, in the present embodiment, the cylindrical member 153 is made of a metal having rigidity, so that the cylindrical member 153 is not deformed by the pressing force of the packing 1121, and the gap R1 is stably and accurately closed, so that the in-vehicle camera 10 can be reliably waterproofed.

  Above, description of 1st Embodiment of this invention is complete | finished and 2nd Embodiment of this invention is described.

  When the harness 150A of this embodiment shown in FIG. 9 is attached to the in-vehicle camera 10 instead of the harness 150 of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the packing 1121 is strongly pressed against the cylindrical member 1501 of the harness 150A, A gap R1 between the harness port 112a and the harness 150A is closed. Although the outer surface of the harness 150A is formed of a rubber tube, since the cylindrical member 1501 is embedded in a portion that comes into contact with the packing 1121, deformation due to the pressing force of the packing 1121 is prevented, and the gap R1 is surely formed. Can be blocked. Thus, by embedding the cylindrical member 1501 in the tube 152 by insert molding, the process of attaching the cylindrical member 1501 to the tube 152 is omitted, and the manufacturing process can be simplified.
