[0038] Further, when both the adsorbent one 14 and the adsorbent two 13 are suction cup assemblies, the support body 12 can be adsorbed on the monitoring site through the suction cup assembly. The adsorbent one 14 installed at the middle position on the back of the support body adopts a strong suction cup with a large adsorption force on the market, and the adsorbent two 13 at the edge position on the back of the support body adopts an ordinary suction cup with a general adsorption force on the market.

The handle 11 is fixedly installed at the front part of the support body 12, that is, in a welding or bolt-screwing-in manner into the support body 12, so as to facilitate the user to remove the whole device from the monitoring site.

[0043] Working principle: The support body can be adsorbed on the magnetic part at the monitoring site (registration desk, security checkpoint, highway port, etc.) through the magnetic part. Since the U-shaped tube is fixedly sleeved with the end of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is vertically fixedly embedded in the bearing support at the front part of the support body, the first-level rotation is realized, and the rotation angle is 180 degrees. The direction regulator is rotationally sleeved with the straight tube, so as to realize the second-level rotation, and the rotation angle is 360 degrees. And the straight tube and the U-shaped tube are fixedly sleeved through a hand-tightening nut, so as to realize telescopic adjustment. The bearing support is fixedly installed at the front part of the support body, and the rotating shaft is fixedly embedded in the bearing support, so as to prevent the monitoring device on the upper part of the U-shaped tube and the straight tube from shaking excessively. The communication line and the power supply line of the monitoring device first enter from the rotating shaft, pass through the U-shaped tube and the straight tube in sequence, and finally pass out from the first through hole.

[0044] It should be noted that the above technical features continue to be combined with each other to form various embodiments not listed above, which are all regarded as the scope recorded in the description of the present invention. And for those of ordinary skill in the art, improvements or transformations can be made according to the above description, and all these improvements and transformations should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of the present invention.
