At the same time, the first vertical shaft 10 drives the water tank 9 to rotate a certain angle through two C-shaped connecting rods 7 to ensure that the water tank 9 is always located directly above the camera 8; when the convex tooth 21 rotates to mesh with the second gear 13, it drives the second gear 13 to rotate, and the second gear 13 drives the second vertical shaft 15 to rotate.
[0040] Please see attached Figure 3-5In a preferred embodiment, the driving mechanism also includes a first horizontal axis 19 and a second horizontal axis 3, a driving bevel gear 14 is welded on the second vertical axis 15, a driven bevel gear 20 is vertically meshed on the side of the driving bevel gear 14, the first horizontal axis 19 is horizontally welded at the center of the driven bevel gear 20, and the other end of the first horizontal axis 19 extends out of the equipment box 6 and is rotatably connected to the equipment box 6.

[0042] When the second vertical shaft 15 rotates, the meshing action of the active bevel gear 14 and the driven bevel gear 20 drives the first horizontal shaft 19 to rotate. The first horizontal shaft 19 drives the second horizontal shaft 3 to rotate through the belt 5.

[0043] Please see attached Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the opening and closing mechanism includes a switch button 23, an extrusion plate 22 is horizontally welded to the top of the rotating shaft 16, a mounting plate 24 is horizontally welded to the upper side of the inside of the equipment box 6, two switch buttons 23 are provided, and the two switch buttons 23 are respectively installed at the two ends of the top of the mounting plate 24.
[0044] Please see attached Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the front end of the extrusion plate 22 can abut against the arcuate surfaces of the two switch buttons 23, and the two switch buttons 23 are electrically connected to the electric valve 11. The two switch buttons 23 can control the opening and closing of the electric valve 11, and pressing either of them can change the opening and closing state of the electric valve 11. This is a prior art, such as two switches for controlling the main lights at the door and the bedside in the bedroom.
[0045] During the rotation of the rotating shaft 16, the squeezing plate 22 is driven to rotate. The front end of the squeezing plate 22 first abuts against the arc surface of one of the switch buttons 23, and the abutting force generated by the rotation is used to press the switch button 23 to open the electric valve 11. When the squeezing plate 22 rotates to abut against the arc surface of the other switch button 23, the switch button 23 is pressed similarly to close the electric valve 11. In this way, the electric valve 11 can be opened before the wiping block 4 rotates in one round to allow rainwater in the water tank 9 to flow downward to the surface of the front end of the camera 8. When the wiping block 4 rotates one circle to complete wiping, the electric valve 11 is closed. The whole mechanism cooperates more closely and has stronger linkage. The natural rainwater flushing and the wiping and cleaning of the wiping block 4 are used to make the camera 8 cleaned more thoroughly, and the camera 8 can be cleaned automatically without manual regular cleaning, saving time and effort.
[0046] From the above description, it can be seen that the above-mentioned embodiment of the utility model achieves the following technical effects: when the camera 8 needs to be cleaned, the forward and reverse motor 17 is started to drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate a certain angle, so that the rotating shaft 16 drives the convex teeth 21 on the disc 12 to rotate in the direction of the second gear 13, and at the same time, the rotating shaft 16 drives the extrusion plate 22 to rotate during the rotation process, and the front end of the extrusion plate 22 first abuts against the arc surface of one of the switch buttons 23, and the abutment force generated by the rotation is used to press the switch button 23 to open the electric valve 11, so that the rainwater inside the water storage tank 9 flows to the surface of the camera 8 to wash away the dust;
[0047] When the convex tooth 21 rotates to mesh with the second gear 13, the second gear 13 is driven to rotate, and the second gear 13 drives the second vertical shaft 15 to rotate. When the second vertical shaft 15 rotates, the meshing action of the active bevel gear 14 and the driven bevel gear 20 drives the first horizontal shaft 19 to rotate. The first horizontal shaft 19 drives the second horizontal shaft 3 to rotate through the belt 5. The second horizontal shaft 3 drives the wiping block 4 to rotate one circle to wipe and clean the surface of the camera 8. The natural rainwater flushing and the wiping and cleaning of the wiping block 4 are used to make the camera 8 clean more thoroughly, and the camera 8 can be cleaned automatically without manual regular cleaning, saving time and effort.
[0048] When the convex tooth 21 and the second gear 13 are engaged, the rotating shaft 16 continues to drive the extrusion plate 22 to rotate and abut against the arc surface of another switch button 23. Similarly, the switch button 23 is pressed to close the electric valve 11. In this way, the electric valve 11 can be opened before the wiping block 4 rotates to allow the rainwater in the water tank 9 to flow downward to the surface of the front end of the camera 8. When the wiping block 4 rotates one circle to complete wiping, the electric valve 11 is closed again. The whole mechanism cooperates more closely and has stronger linkage.
[0049] When it is necessary to drive the camera 8 to change its angle, start the forward and reverse motor 17 to drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate a certain angle, so that the rotating shaft 16 drives the convex tooth 21 on the disk 12 to rotate in the direction of the first gear 18. When the convex tooth 21 rotates to engage with the first gear 18, it drives the first gear 18 to rotate, and the first gear 18 drives the first vertical shaft 10 to rotate. The first vertical shaft 10 drives the camera 8 to rotate a certain angle to change the monitoring angle, thereby increasing the monitoring range of the camera 8. At the same time, the first vertical shaft 10 drives the water tank 9 to rotate a certain angle through two C-shaped connecting rods 7 to ensure that the water tank 9 is always located directly above the camera 8. Different functions can be completed through only one driving device cooperation mechanism, saving equipment costs.
