[0028] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a camera shielding device, which can conveniently shield a camera through a mechanical structure, protect user privacy, prevent hacker intrusion, and achieve physical protection.

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 8 , Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of an open state of a camera shielding device according to a specific embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The corresponding closed state structure diagram; Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a camera shielding device in an open state according to a specific embodiment of the present invention; Figure 4 for Figure 3 Side view of Figure 5 for Figure 3 The corresponding internal structure diagram of the closed state; Figure 6 for Figure 5 Side view of Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the explosion structure of the camera shielding device; Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the conveyor belt direction.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, the camera shielding device provided by the present invention includes a fixing component 1, a driving wheel 2, a shielding sheet 4 and a conveyor belt 3.

[0032] The fixing part 1 has a lens hole 5 for exposing the lens 6 of the camera module. The fixing part 1 is the main supporting structure of the whole device, and its specific shape can be set as needed, which is not specifically limited here, such as being set in a disc shape. When the lens 6 shielding device is used for electronic devices with cameras such as mobile phones and camera monitoring equipment, the fixing part 1 can be the housing of the electronic device, such as the front housing of the device.

[0033] The driving wheel 2 is rotatably mounted on the fixed component 1, and the shielding sheet 4 is driven to move by the rotation of the driving wheel 2. Specifically, the driving wheel 2 can be driven manually or automatically by electric means. When driven manually, for ease of operation, at least part of the driving wheel 2 protrudes from the housing of the electronic device, so that the user can conveniently act on the driving wheel 2. The driving component is rotatably mounted, which means that it is mounted on the fixed component 1 and can rotate relative to the fixed component 1 around the rotation axis. Specifically, the rotation axis of the driving component is perpendicular to the fixed component 1.

[0034] There is at least one shielding piece 4, which is hinged to the fixed component 1 and is used to shield the lens 6. The shape of the shielding piece 4 is set as required so that it can shield the lens 6. When there is one shielding piece 4, its area should be larger than the area of ​​the lens 6 so as to effectively shield the lens 6. When there are multiple shielding pieces 4, multiple shielding pieces 4 can cooperate to shield the lens 6. The shape of the shielding piece 4 can be set as required and is not specifically limited here. The shielding piece 4 is hinged to the fixed component 1, and the hinge shaft 10 is specifically perpendicular to the fixed component 1, so that the shielding piece 4 rotates in a plane parallel to the fixed component 1.

[0035] The conveyor belt 3 cooperates with the driving wheel 2 and the shielding piece 4 respectively, so that when the driving wheel 2 rotates, the shielding piece 4 is driven to rotate through the conveyor belt 3 to block the lens 6 or to release the blocking in a staggered manner with the lens 6. That is, the rotation of the driving wheel 2 drives the conveyor belt 3 that cooperates therewith to move synchronously, and then the conveyor belt 3 drives the shielding piece 4 that cooperates therewith to rotate. The forward and reverse rotation of the driving wheel 2 drives the shielding piece 4 to rotate forward and reversely, so as to block the lens 6 or to block the lens 6 in a staggered manner with the lens 6. The specific cooperation of the conveyor belt 3, the driving wheel 2 and the shielding piece 4 can refer to the cooperation method of the synchronous belt and the synchronous wheel to achieve synchronous movement.

[0036] The camera shielding device provided by the present invention cooperates with the lens 6 of the camera module. When the lens 6 is not in use, the driving wheel 2 is rotated, and the driving wheel 2 drives the shielding piece 4 to rotate through the conveyor belt 3, so that the shielding piece 4 shields the lens 6. When the lens 6 needs to be used, the driving wheel 2 is rotated in the opposite direction, and the shielding piece 4 is driven by the conveyor belt 3 to rotate in the opposite direction to open, and stagger with the lens 6, thereby releasing the shielding effect on the lens 6. Through the camera shielding device, the lens 6 can be opened or shielded very conveniently, which is convenient for user operation and physical protection. Even if a hacker invades the system, he cannot manipulate the camera to take pictures secretly, thereby protecting the user's privacy. At the same time, it can play a protective role such as dustproof. The transmission is realized by the conveyor belt 3, the structure is simple, the space occupancy is small, and it is convenient to layout in a small electronic device.

[0037] Specifically, there are multiple shielding sheets 4, and the outer end of each shielding sheet 4 is hinged to the fixed component 1, and the inner end can rotate inward with the shielding sheet 4 to shield the lens 6, and rotate outward to stagger with the lens 6. The conveyor belt 3 cooperates with the outer end side edge of each shielding sheet 4 to drive each shielding sheet 4 to rotate synchronously. Multiple shielding sheets 4 cooperate to jointly shield the lens 6. The outer end of the shielding sheet 4 is hinged to the fixed component 1, so that the inner end of the shielding sheet 4 can rotate around the hinge shaft 10 at the outer end. The hinge shaft 10 is set at the outer end, and a small rotation of the outer end can drive the inner end to swing in a larger range, which is convenient for shielding the lens 6. The outer edge of each shielding sheet 4 cooperates with the conveyor belt 3, and the conveyance of the conveyor belt 3 drives the shielding sheet 4 to rotate. Specifically, the shielding sheet 4 and the conveyor belt 3 can move synchronously by friction. Specifically, the friction between the outer edge of the shielding sheet 4 and the conveyor belt 3 can be sufficient to drive the shielding sheet 4 to move synchronously with the conveyor belt 3 through the structural setting and material setting of the outer edge of the shielding sheet 4 and the conveyor belt 3. Alternatively, the outer edge of the shielding sheet 4 may be meshed with the conveyor belt 3, such as by teeth meshing, so as to ensure reliable transmission between the two.

[0038] As required, the conveyor belt 3 is fixedly connected to the outer side edge of each shielding sheet 4, so that when the conveyor belt 3 moves with the driving wheel 2, the shielding sheet 4 is driven to rotate synchronously. Since a small rotation of the outer end of the shielding sheet 4 can drive the inner end to swing in a larger range, the fixed connection does not limit the shielding sheet 4 from rotating between the shielding position and the offset position with the lens 6. Compared with the shielding sheet 4 meshing with the fixed component 1 or being driven by friction, the fixed connection has a simple structure and reliable transmission.

[0039] Specifically, the conveyor belt 3 is connected to the outer side edges of each shielding piece 4 through a limit screw 7. That is, a hole is opened on the conveyor belt 3, and a screw hole is opened on the outer side edge of the shielding piece 4. The screw passes through the conveyor belt 3 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole, thereby fixing the conveyor belt 3 and the shielding piece 4. The screw connection has a simple structure. And the screw occupies a small space, so that the fixed connection surface of the conveyor belt 3 and the shielding piece 4 is smaller. In addition, the fixed connection has a smaller limiting effect on the rotation of the shielding piece 4, so that the shielding piece 4 can be rotated in a larger range as needed. When the number of shielding pieces 4 is multiple, the conveyor belt 3 between two adjacent shielding pieces 4 is pulled into a straight line under the fixing action of the limit screw 7.

[0040] Furthermore, the multiple shielding pieces 4 have the same shape and size and are located on the same circumferential surface. The conveyor belt 3 drives each shielding piece 4 to rotate inward until the inner ends of each shielding piece 4 fit together to shield the lens 6; the conveyor belt 3 drives each shielding piece 4 to rotate outward so that the inner ends of each shielding piece 4 are separated to be staggered with the lens 6. The shielding pieces 4 have the same shape and size, which is convenient for processing, and can reduce the interference between adjacent shielding pieces 4, so that the movement of multiple shielding pieces 4 is smoother. The shielding pieces 4 are located on the same circumferential surface, and when the conveyor belt 3 drives each shielding piece 4 to rotate inward, when the inner ends of each shielding piece 4 rotate to abut against each other, the lens 6 is shielded. Of course, the shape of the inner ends of each shielding piece 4 is set to match the adjacent shielding pieces 4, so that the whole can be assembled into a complete plate shape, thereby shielding the lens 6.

[0041] As attached Figure 3 As shown, there are five shielding pieces 4, which are respectively hinged to the fixed part 1, and the distances from the hinge shaft 10 to the center of the lens 6 are all equal, and each hinge shaft 10 is evenly distributed along the circumference with the center of the lens 6 as the center, so the center angles of two adjacent hinge shafts 10 are all 72°. When the inner ends of the five shielding pieces 4 rotate inwards to abut against each other with the movement of the conveyor belt 3, the inner ends of the five shielding pieces 4 are spliced ​​into a complete plate shape to shield the lens 6. With the reverse movement of the conveyor belt 3, the inner ends of the five shielding pieces 4 rotate outwards, thereby separating from each other, and when they rotate until each shielding piece 4 is staggered with the lens 6, the shielding effect on the lens 6 is released.

[0042] In one embodiment, the driving wheel 2 has a mounting post 8 coaxial with its rotation axis, and the conveyor belt 3 cooperates with the mounting post 8 to rotate synchronously with the driving wheel 2. That is, the driving wheel 2 cooperates with the transmission belt through the mounting post 8, and the conveyor belt 3 and the mounting post 8 can be driven to move synchronously through friction. The mounting post 8 can have a mounting hole, and the fixing component 1 has a pin shaft. The mounting hole is inserted into the pin shaft, so that the driving component can rotate around the pin shaft, thereby realizing the rotational installation of the driving wheel 2 and the fixing component 1.

[0043] Furthermore, a guide wheel 9 for guiding the conveyor belt 3 is provided on the fixed component 1 between the mounting column 8 and the hinge shaft 10 of the shielding sheet 4. By providing the guide wheel 9, the conveyor belt 3 can be guided according to the setting position of the shielding sheet 4, so that the conveyor belt 3 can better cooperate with the driving wheel 2 and the shielding sheet 4 to transmit the force. Specifically, in the case of multiple shielding sheets 4, the mounting column 8 is provided above the middle of the hinge shaft 10 of two adjacent shielding sheets 4, and two guide wheels 9 are provided between the mounting column 8 and the aforementioned two hinge shafts 10, and the two guide wheels 9 are symmetrical about the mounting column 8, and the conveyor belt 3 bypasses the top of the mounting column 8, then bypasses from the bottom of the guide wheel 9, and then bypasses the outer edge of each shielding sheet 4 to form a ring shape as a whole. By providing the guide wheel 9, the conveyor belt 3 can fit more closely with the mounting column 8, thereby increasing the friction between the two, and ensuring the reliability of the mounting column 8 driving the conveyor belt 3 to move.

[0044] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, a torque output device 11 is also included. The output end of the torque output device 11 is directly connected to the driving wheel 2 to drive the driving wheel 2 to rotate, or the output end of the torque output device 11 is connected to the driving wheel 2 through a transmission member to drive the driving wheel 2 to rotate. That is, the driving wheel 2 can be driven manually or automatically by the torque output device 11. When driven automatically, the torque output device 11 can directly drive or indirectly drive the driving wheel 2. When driven directly, the torque output from the output end of the torque output device 11 directly drives the driving wheel 2 to rotate, and the driving wheel 2 drives the conveyor belt 3 to move, and the conveyor belt 3 drives the shielding plate 4 to rotate. According to the rotation stroke required for the shielding plate 4 to open or block the lens 6, the torque output by the torque output device 11 is controlled accordingly. The torque output device 11 can specifically be a motor.

[0045] In the case of indirect drive, the torque outputted from the output end of the torque output device 11 drives the transmission member to move, the transmission member then drives the driving wheel 2 to rotate, the driving wheel 2 then drives the conveyor belt 3 to move, and the conveyor belt 3 drives the shielding sheet 4 to rotate. According to the rotation stroke required for opening the shielding sheet 4 or shielding the lens 6 and the relationship between the input and output of the transmission member, the torque outputted by the torque output device 11 is controlled accordingly.

[0046] Manual and automatic dual control can be achieved by setting the torque output device 11. During manual drive, the torque output device 11 does not work, and the user can also drive the shielding sheet 4 to open or shield the lens 6 by manually rotating the driving wheel 2.

[0047] Specifically, the transmission member is a transmission wheel 12, and the output end of the torque output device 11 is meshed with the driving wheel 2 through the transmission wheel 12 to drive the driving wheel 2 to rotate. That is, the driving wheel 2 and the transmission wheel 12 have meshing teeth respectively, and the output end of the torque output device 11 is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel 12, driving the transmission wheel 12 to rotate, and the transmission wheel 12 in turn drives the meshed driving wheel 2 to rotate, so that the driving wheel 2 drives the shielding plate 4 to rotate through the conveyor belt 3. Through the coordinated setting of the transmission wheel 12 and the driving wheel 2, the transmission ratio can be controlled, so that the torque output device 11 can accurately control the rotation of the shielding plate 4. Specifically, the torque output device 11 can be a motor.

[0048] As attached Figure 8 As shown, the driving wheel 2 rotates clockwise and counterclockwise to drive the shielding piece 4 to rotate accordingly. The rotation of the transmission wheel 12 is controlled by the motor, and the motor drives the transmission wheel 12 to rotate forward and reverse, thereby driving the driving wheel 2 to rotate reverse and forward. The driving wheel 2 rotates, thereby driving the conveyor belt 3 to rotate, and the conveyor belt 3 moves, thereby driving the five shielding pieces 4 to rotate. Through the above-mentioned synchronous rotation movements, the entire device is driven to close and open. Alternatively, it is also possible to directly act on the driving wheel 2 manually to rotate it, so that the driving wheel 2 drives the transmission belt to rotate, and the conveyor belt 3 moves, thereby driving the five shielding pieces 4 to rotate.

[0049] Based on the camera shielding device provided in the above embodiment, the present invention further provides an electronic device, which includes a camera module and any one of the camera shielding devices in the above embodiment, wherein the lens hole 5 of the camera shielding device is opposite to the lens 6 of the camera module. Since the electronic device adopts the camera shielding device in the above embodiment, please refer to the above embodiment for the beneficial effects of the electronic device.

[0050] Specifically, the electronic device may be a device with a camera such as a smart speaker, a watch, a bracelet, VR, AR, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a monitoring device, etc. The lens 6 of the electronic device may be fixedly mounted on the back of the fixed component 1, the shielding sheet 4 is rotatably connected to the front of the fixed component 1, and the fixed component 1 is fixed in the housing of the electronic device. Alternatively, the housing of the electronic device may be used as the fixed component 1, and the shielding sheet 4 and the camera module are both connected to the back of the fixed component 1, and the shielding sheet 4 is located between the fixed component 1 and the lens 6.

[0051] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

[0052] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
