Embodiment approach 1

[0035] figure 1 It is a side view of the imaging device 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The imaging device 1 of the present embodiment is, for example, a vehicle-mounted imaging device 1 mounted in a vehicle such as an automobile. The imaging device 1 is installed, for example, on the upper portion of the windshield WS of the vehicle, and is used to photograph the front of the vehicle through the windshield WS to obtain the distance and speed of the captured object. include figure 1 Inside, each drawing shows an orthogonal coordinate system in which the vehicle's roll axis is defined as an x-axis, the pitch axis is defined as a y-axis, and the yaw axis is defined as a z-axis.

[0036] The imaging device 1 includes an imaging unit 10 and a bracket 20 capable of sliding and attaching the imaging unit 10 in a predetermined attaching direction DF. In the bracket 20, for example, a flat main body portion 21 is disposed on the front windshield obliquely with...

Embodiment approach 2

[0112] Next, use Figure 9 to Figure 12 , Embodiment 2 of the imaging device of the present invention will be described.

[0113] Figure 9 It is a side view of the imaging device 1A according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Figure 10 for Figure 9 A perspective view of the imaging unit 10A of the illustrated imaging device 1A viewed from above. Figure 11 for Figure 9 A perspective view from below of the bracket 20A of the imaging device 1A is shown.

[0114] The imaging device 1A of this embodiment differs from the imaging device 1 of the first embodiment described above in the configuration of the second supported portion 17A of the imaging unit 10A and the position of the bracket 20A in the mounting direction DF of the imaging unit 10A. The rear end portion has a first support structure portion 25 instead of the second support structure portion 26 . The other configurations of the imaging device 1A of this embodiment are the same as those of the imaging d...

Embodiment approach 3

[0121] Next, use Figure 13 to Figure 15 , Embodiment 3 of the imaging device of the present invention will be described.

[0122] Figure 13 It is a side view of the imaging device 1B according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. Figure 14 for Figure 13 The shown perspective view of the imaging unit 10B of the imaging device 1B viewed from above. Figure 15 for Figure 13 A perspective view from below of the bracket 20B of the imaging device 1B is shown.

[0123] The difference between the imaging device 1B of the present embodiment and the imaging device 1 of the first embodiment described above lies in the configuration of the first supported portion 16B of the imaging unit 10B. The other configurations of the imaging device 1B of this embodiment are the same as those of the imaging device 1 of the first embodiment described above, and therefore, the same reference numerals are assigned to the same parts, and description thereof will be omitted.

Abstract

The present invention provides an imaging device with which it is possible to easily mount / remove an imaging unit by a simpler operation than in the past when mounting / removing the imaging unit to andfrom a bracket, and to reduce more work space than in the past. In the present invention, an imaging unit 10 has a plurality of supported parts 15 that are supported by the bracket 20. The bracket 20has a plurality of support structures 24 for supporting the plurality of supported parts 15. The support structures 24 have a receiving port 24a opened toward the rear of a mounting direction DF forreceiving the supported parts 15 in the mounting direction DF and a support 24b for supporting the supported parts 15 on the forward side in the mounting direction DF of the receiving port 24a from asupport direction DS that intersects the mounting direction DF.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an imaging device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known an invention related to a camera unit having a camera main body and a bracket that detachably supports the camera main body and fixes it to an installation object such as a front windshield of a vehicle (see, for example, the following: Patent Document 1). [0003] In the conventional camera unit described in Patent Document 1, the camera body is provided with a hook-shaped portion hung on a bracket, and the bracket is provided with a first support portion and a second support portion, and the first support portion is hooked to the hook-shaped portion. The camera main body is rotatably supported, and the second support portion fixedly supports the camera main body (see claim 1 and the like of this document). [0004] Patent Document 1 describes that the camera unit can be fixed without sliding the camera body, thereby improving the design freedom ...
