Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cameras and relates to a camera capable of vertical and horizontal movement. Background Art

[0002] With the development of economy and technology, families are gradually turning into smart families. People hope to monitor their families in real time. They can use mobile clients to monitor and interact with their homes and offices in real time. In order to visualize the monitored places in all directions, the camera needs to rotate 360°.

[0003] The current camera products on the market have the following problems: (1) The current camera products on the market mainly use gears to drive the camera to rotate. The current market products mainly rely on motors to drive gears to rotate, and gears drive the sphere to rotate. In order to ensure the smooth rotation of the sphere, bearings need to be added, and the entire assembly and design costs are high. (2) The rotation of the horizontal motor causes the power cord to be entangled, and there are problems with power cord breakage and winding. The current product is designed in such a way that the horizontal motor drives the base shell to rotate, and the power cord rotates with the rotation. The power cord is wound with the horizontal motor, causing the power cord to be entangled. (3) The current product shakes during the rotation process, which affects the window display. The window image shakes. The main reason for this problem is that the motor's own shaking and the eccentricity of the gears cause the entire sphere to rotate with a large amount of shaking. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a camera that can move vertically and horizontally, improves the problems of current market products, solves the problem of power cord entanglement caused by horizontal motor rotation, reduces assembly difficulty, and saves production costs. The present invention is realized through the following technical scheme: the present invention provides a camera capable of vertical and horizontal movement, comprising a sphere and a base, the sphere being mounted on the base, and a right shell assembly of a ball head and a left shell assembly of a ball head being assembled into the sphere; a lens mainboard being fixed on a front shell of the ball head to form a front shell assembly of the ball head, and the front shell assembly of the ball head being mounted on a right shell of the ball head to form a right shell assembly of the ball head; a speaker being mounted on a left shell of the ball head, and one end of a vertical motor pressing the speaker and being fixed on a left shell of the ball head to form a left shell assembly of the ball head; the base comprising an upper shell of a base, a middle shell of a base and a lower shell of a base which are connected to each other, one end of a power cord and a power cord of a vertical motor being plugged into the lens mainboard, and the other end of the power cord being plugged into an adapter plate; the vertical motor being fixedly connected to the left shell of the ball head, and a rotating shaft of the vertical motor being mounted in the upper shell of the base; a horizontal motor being fixedly mounted on the middle shell of the base, and a rotating shaft of the horizontal motor being mounted in the upper shell of the base; the adapter plate being mounted in the middle shell of the base, and a power cord of the horizontal motor being also plugged into the adapter plate, and the middle shell of the base being fixed on the lower shell of the base.

[0005] Preferably, the ball head front shell assembly is fixedly mounted on the ball head right shell by means of buckles and screws.

[0006] Preferably, the speaker is fixed to the left shell of the ball head by double-sided tape.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating shaft of the vertical motor is fixedly installed in the vertical motor hole of the upper shell of the base by screws.

[0008] Preferably, one end of the power cord passes through the power cord hole of the upper shell of the base and is plugged into the lens main board.

[0010] Preferably, the upper shell of the base is installed in the middle shell of the base by a rotational positioning buckle, and the rotational mating surface of the upper shell of the base is matingly connected with the rotational mating surface of the middle shell of the base.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0012] 1. The present invention eliminates the transmission mechanisms and bearings such as gears or pulleys in the traditional camera assembly in the design of the vertical motor and horizontal motor installation, reduces the fixing screws of the gears and bearings, reduces the production cost of the entire product, and also reduces the difficulty of assembly, thereby reducing the assembly cost.

[0013] 2.

The interface of the window is improved, and the interface is clearer and more stable; the display effect of the visual window is optimized, and the video picture is more stable.

[0014] 3. The present invention fixes the horizontal motor on the middle shell of the base so that it does not rotate with the rotation of the sphere. The horizontal motor directly drives the upper shell of the base to rotate, thereby driving the sphere to rotate. The power cord will not be wound with the horizontal motor, ensuring that the power cord is not worn or tangled, thereby solving the problem of power cord entanglement caused by the rotation of the horizontal motor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present invention, so the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0024] The accompanying drawings are a specific embodiment of a camera capable of vertical and horizontal movement according to the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the camera includes a sphere 13 and a base 14, and the sphere 13 is mounted on the base 14. The sphere of this embodiment is assembled by buckling a right ball head shell component and a left ball head shell component; the lens main board 2 is fixed on the front ball head shell 12 to form a front ball head shell component, and the front ball head shell component is fixedly mounted on the right ball head shell 1 by buckles and screws to form a right ball head shell component; the speaker 3 is fixedly mounted on the left ball head shell 4 by double-sided adhesive, and one end of the vertical motor 5 presses the speaker 3 and is fixed on the left ball head shell 4 to form a left ball head shell component.

[0025] The base 14 includes an upper base shell 11, a middle base shell 10 and a lower base shell 7 which are connected to each other. One end of the power cord 9 passes through the power cord hole of the upper base shell 11 and is plugged into the lens main board 2, and the other end of the power cord 9 is plugged into the adapter board 8. The power cord of the vertical motor 5 is plugged into the lens main board 2, the vertical motor 5 is fixedly connected to the left ball head shell 4, and the shaft of the vertical motor is fixedly installed in the vertical motor hole 15 of the upper base shell 11 by screws. The vertical motor 5 drives the ball 13 to move in the vertical direction when it works.

[0026] The horizontal motor 6 is fixedly mounted on the base middle shell 10, and the rotating shaft of the horizontal motor is mounted in the horizontal motor hole 16 of the base upper shell. The power cord of the horizontal motor 6 is plugged into the adapter plate. The horizontal motor drives the rotation of the base upper shell to drive the sphere to move in the horizontal direction. The horizontal motor and the vertical motor do not work at the same time. In this embodiment, the horizontal motor 6 is fixed on the base middle shell 10. When the sphere rotates horizontally, the base middle shell and the horizontal motor do not move, so the power cord will not be wound around the horizontal motor. In addition, the horizontal motor directly drives the base upper shell to rotate, eliminating the transmission of gears, reducing the shaking of the sphere, and making the window effect more stable.

[0027] The base middle shell 10 is fixed on the base lower shell 7, and the base upper shell 11 is installed on the base middle shell 10 through the rotation positioning buckle 17. The rotation positioning buckle 17 fixes the relative position of the base upper shell and the base middle shell in the vertical direction, and the base upper shell has no constraints on the horizontal rotation freedom; the rotation mating surface 18 of the base upper shell is connected with the rotation mating surface of the base middle shell to ensure that the horizontal rotation of the base upper shell is more stable. A stop 19 is set on the rotation mating surface 18 of the base upper shell to prevent the base upper shell from rotating in the same direction. When the base upper shell rotates 355 degrees and hits the stop, it will stop and then can turn to the opposite direction.

[0028] The adapter plate 8 is installed in the base middle shell 10, the adapter plate 8 is connected to an external power supply, the horizontal motor 6, the vertical motor 5 and the lens main board 2 are directly or indirectly connected to the adapter plate, and the horizontal motor, the vertical motor and the lens main board are powered by the adapter plate.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents. These modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and specification of the present invention.
