Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of video conferencing camera technology, and in particular to a video conferencing camera for information transmission. Background Technology

[0002] Video conferencing cameras communicate information through multiple means such as graphics, sound, and data, enabling geographically dispersed users to gather together for meetings and supporting real-time information exchange and sharing over long distances.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent application number CN202420460922.X discloses a video conferencing camera, including a base housing and a camera body. The top of the base housing has a through groove, and a column is fixedly connected inside the base housing. The top of the column has a storage groove. An annular mounting plate is provided inside the base housing and is slidably fitted onto the column. An electric telescopic rod for driving the annular mounting plate to rise and fall is installed inside the base housing. An annular groove is provided on the top of the annular mounting plate, and an annular connecting block is slidably connected in the annular groove. A horizontal rotation drive mechanism for driving the annular connecting block to rotate is provided inside the base housing. Two vertical support housings are fixedly connected to the top of the annular connecting block. A rotating shaft is provided between the camera body and the vertical support housings. A rotary motor for driving the rotating shaft to rotate is installed inside one of the vertical support housings.

[0004] The aforementioned device rotates the camera to a vertical position and then lowers it into the storage slot. This method has multiple structures, high maintenance costs, and the multi-stage transmission mechanism increases the probability of equipment failure, sacrificing product reliability and economy. It deviates significantly from the development trend of "maintenance-free" modern office equipment.

[0005] Therefore, this application proposes a video conferencing camera for information transmission. Utility Model Content

[0011] With the above scheme, when the micro servo motor is working, it drives the second convex plate to rotate. The second convex plate is fixedly connected to the cover, and drives the cover to rotate.

[0012] Optionally, a protruding post is fixedly installed on one side of the first protruding plate, the hook is arc-shaped, a connecting rod is fixedly installed between the hook and the camera, and the protruding post can be movably engaged in the hook groove.

[0019] With the above scheme, the stepper motor is installed on the top of the support plate, and the stepper motor drives the second helical gear to rotate.

By setting an adjustment component in the cavity of the first support 12, the elevation angle of the camera 11 can be electrically adjusted according to the requirements of the meeting. By setting a cover 14, the front end of the camera 11 can be physically blocked, avoiding privacy leaks that may occur due to software vulnerabilities after the remote meeting ends, thus improving the privacy of the device.

[0033] Please see Figure 3 The micro servo motor 19 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the camera 11. The output shaft of the micro servo motor 19 is fixedly connected to the second convex plate 18. The second convex plate 18 and the first convex plate 16 are symmetrical to each other.

The limiting ring 25 is set to limit the rotating main shaft 22, which improves the stability of the device.

[0039] The implementation principle of a video conferencing camera for information transmission in this application embodiment is as follows: When adjusting the elevation angle of the camera 11, the stepper motor 27 drives the second helical gear 26 to rotate. The rotating main shaft 22 is fixedly inserted through the first helical gear 23. The second helical gear 26 is movably meshed with the first helical gear 23. The second helical gear 26 drives the first helical gear 23 and the rotating main shaft 22 to rotate.
