Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cameras and relates to a protective outdoor camera. Background Art

[0002] Outdoor monitoring is in an embedded video server, which integrates intelligent behavior recognition algorithms and can identify and judge the behaviors of pedestrians or vehicles in the picture scene. Under appropriate conditions, it generates an alarm to prompt the user. Video monitoring can be used for security prevention, information acquisition, command and dispatch, etc. It can provide production process control, security for large public facilities, and also provide various services for medical monitoring, distance education, etc.

[0003] At present, the use of outdoor monitoring cameras is becoming more and more popular. Most of the outdoor monitoring cameras on the market have the function of multi-angle adjustment. In order to increase the shooting range of outdoor cameras and reduce the obstruction of obstacles, outdoor cameras are generally installed on outdoor fixed frames by the roadside. Because they are located near the road, dust is likely to adhere to the outside of outdoor cameras and needs to be cleaned regularly. At the same time, the vehicles driving on the road will cause the outdoor fixed frame to vibrate for a long time, and the long-term vibration of the outdoor fixed frame is likely to cause damage to the outdoor camera. Therefore, we propose a protective outdoor camera. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to address the above problems in the existing technology and propose a protective outdoor camera. The technical problem to be solved by this device is: how to protect the outdoor camera from dust and vibration.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0006] A protective outdoor camera, comprising a storage cylinder and a dust-proof component. The dust-proof component includes a mounting groove plate and two arc-shaped racks. Four connecting rods are fixed below the mounting groove plate, and a round rod is fixed between the two connecting rods on the same side. The two arc-shaped racks are slidably arranged inside the mounting groove plate. Sliding grooves are formed on the two arc-shaped racks, and the two round rods are slidably arranged inside the sliding grooves. A rubber strip is fixed inside the two arc-shaped racks. A rotating shaft and a rotating cylinder are rotatably arranged on the mounting groove plate. The rotating shaft is rotatably arranged inside the rotating cylinder. A first bevel gear is fixed at one end of the rotating shaft, and a second bevel gear is fixed at one end of the rotating cylinder. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear are symmetric to each other. An extension plate is fixed on the side of the mounting groove plate, and a rotating motor is fixed on the extension plate. A driving bevel gear is fixed on the output shaft of the rotating motor. The driving bevel gear meshes with the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear respectively. A second gear is fixed at the other end of the rotating shaft, and a first gear is fixed at the other end of the rotating cylinder. A rotating opening is formed above the mounting groove plate. The first gear and the second gear are located inside the rotating opening. The first gear and the second gear mesh with the arc-shaped racks at corresponding positions respectively. A rotating frame is fixed above the mounting groove plate, and a sliding plate is rotatably arranged above the rotating frame. The sliding plate is fixed inside the storage cylinder. A rotating motor is fixed above the sliding plate, and the output shaft of the rotating motor is fixedly connected with the rotating frame. A shock-absorbing component is arranged above the storage cylinder, a heat-dissipating component is arranged inside the shock-absorbing component, and a camera is arranged below the storage cylinder.

[0007] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: Connect the shock-absorbing component to the outdoor fixing frame. When the outdoor fixing frame is vibrated, the shock-absorbing component buffers the vibration transmitted by the outdoor fixing frame. When a large amount of dust accumulates on the storage cylinder, the rotating motor drives the driving bevel gear to vibrate through the output shaft. The driving bevel gear drives the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear to rotate. The first bevel gear drives the rotating shaft to rotate, the rotating shaft drives the second gear to rotate, the second bevel gear drives the rotating cylinder to rotate, the rotating cylinder drives the first gear to rotate. The first gear and the second gear respectively drive the arc-shaped racks at corresponding positions to rotate. The two arc-shaped racks rotate in opposite directions, so as to surround the dust-proof cover. The two arc-shaped racks drive the rubber strip to abut against the dust-proof cover. The rotating motor drives the rotating frame to rotate through the output shaft. The rotating frame drives the mounting groove plate to rotate, the mounting groove plate drives the connecting rod to rotate, the connecting rod drives the round rod to rotate, the round rod drives the arc-shaped rack to rotate, and the arc-shaped rack wipes the dust on the surface of the dust-proof cover, so as to prevent dust from affecting the operation of the camera. The heat-dissipating component cools the inside of the storage cylinder.

[0008] A plurality of air outlet holes are fixed on the side of the storage cylinder. Two convex blocks are fixed inside the storage cylinder. A mounting plate is fixed between the two convex blocks. Two rotating grooves are formed between the mounting plate and the storage cylinder. The two arc-shaped racks are slidably arranged inside the rotating grooves at corresponding positions. A mounting ring is fixed below the mounting plate, and a dust-proof cover is fixed above the mounting ring. The camera is located inside the dust-proof cover.

[0009] With the above structure, the mounting plate provides mounting positions for the mounting ring and the dust cover. The camera and the dust cover cooperate to prevent dust from affecting the operation of the camera.

[0010] The shock-absorbing assembly includes a buffer cylinder fixed to the storage cylinder. A partition is fixed inside the buffer cylinder. A connecting shaft is slidably arranged on the buffer cylinder. A connecting plate is fixed to the upper end of the connecting shaft, and a buffer plate is fixed to the lower end of the connecting shaft. A spring is arranged between the buffer plate and the partition. A U-shaped airbag is sleeved on the buffer plate. A plurality of air inlets are formed on the side surface of the buffer cylinder, and filter nets are arranged on the air inlets. A dust-proof layer and a water-absorbing layer are arranged inside the filter nets.

[0011] With the above structure, when the connecting plate is connected to the outdoor fixing frame and the outdoor fixing frame is vibrated, the vibration is transmitted to the connecting plate. The connecting plate drives the connecting shaft to vibrate, and the connecting shaft drives the buffer plate to vibrate. The buffer plate squeezes the spring and the U-shaped airbag, and the spring and the U-shaped airbag buffer the buffer plate, thereby preventing the storage cylinder from being vibrated.

[0012] The heat-dissipating assembly includes a fixing plate fixed inside the buffer cylinder. An intake fan is fixed above the fixing plate, and the intake fan is located below the partition.

[0013] With the above structure, the intake fan draws air into the inside of the buffer cylinder from the air inlets. The filter nets filter and absorb dust and moisture in the air, and then the air is conveyed into the inside of the storage cylinder.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present protective outdoor camera has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. By the cooperation of the dust-proof assembly and the storage cylinder, the dust on the dust cover can be wiped off, thereby preventing dust from affecting the operation of the camera;

[0016] 2. The shock-absorbing assembly and the storage cylinder cooperate, and the spring and the U-shaped airbag buffer the buffer plate, thereby reducing the vibration received by the camera and preventing the vibration from affecting the operation of the camera;

[0017] 3. The heat-dissipating assembly and the storage cylinder cooperate to cool the rotating motor, the rotating motor and the camera, improving the heat-dissipating effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
