In the vertical direction, the orthographic projection of the first wire blocking portion 710 covers at least a portion of the orthographic projection of the second transmission tooth 421. Optionally, the first wire blocking portion 710 may be a plate-shaped wire blocking structure.

[0062] The second driving device 500 is disposed in the bottom housing 310 and can drive the second lens assembly 320 to pitch and rotate.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present application, the multi-eye camera includes a first lens assembly 120, a second lens assembly 320, a first driving device 400 and a second driving device 500. The first lens assembly 120 includes at least two first lenses 121 spaced apart in a horizontal direction, that is, each first lens 121 constitutes a spliced ​​lens, which can increase the field of view of the first lens assembly 120; the first driving device 400 includes a first driving source 420 to drive the bottom shell 310 to rotate horizontally, and then drive the second lens assembly 320 to rotate horizontally, so that the second lens assembly 320 covers the field of view of the first lens assembly 120 in the horizontal direction, and the second driving device 500 can drive the second lens assembly 320 to pitch and rotate, so that the second lens assembly 320 covers the field of view of the first lens assembly 120 in the vertical direction, so that the details captured by the multi-eye camera can be clearer.

[0064] In addition, the multi-eye camera also includes a fixing member 220 and a circuit board 210, the fixing member 220 includes a horizontal section 221 and a vertical section 222 that are bent to each other, the circuit board 210 is horizontally stacked above the horizontal section 221, and the gear shaft 410 is arranged below the horizontal section 221, that is, the circuit board 210 and the gear shaft 410 can be arranged on the upper and lower sides of the horizontal section 221 through the horizontal section 221, so that the installation space in the vertical direction of the fuselage 110 can be saved, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110 and reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera; and a part of the gear shaft 410 is located in the notch 223 on the vertical section 222, which can reduce the installation space in the fuselage 110 occupied by the gear shaft 410 in its length direction, and reduce the volume of the multi-eye camera. It can be seen that the present application can optimize the layout of the various components in the fuselage 110 through the fixing member 220, thereby reducing the installation space in the fuselage 110 occupied by the various components, thereby reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0065] Furthermore, the multi-eye camera also includes a wire blocking member 700, which has a first wire blocking portion 710, which is arranged above the second transmission tooth 421, and in the vertical direction, the orthographic projection of the first wire blocking portion 710 covers at least a part of the orthographic projection of the second transmission tooth 421, that is, the first wire blocking portion 710 can block the cable located above the second transmission tooth 421 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421, thereby reducing the risk of the cable being wound into the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 and being damaged. At the same time, the top surface of the first wire blocking portion 710 is not higher than the top surface of the gear shaft 410, so that the first wire blocking portion 710 can be prevented from occupying additional space above the gear shaft 410, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110 and reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0066] Optionally, the first wire blocking portion 710 may be connected to the body 110 via a support frame, but the support frame will additionally occupy the installation space in the body 110. Fig.16 The wire blocking member 700 further includes a support portion 720 connected to the first wire blocking portion 710, the support portion 720 extends downward and is connected to the first driving source 420, and a wire blocking space 730 is formed around the support portion 720 and the first wire blocking portion 710.

Specifically, when the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 is located within the wire blocking space 730, the opening 740 is used for the first transmission tooth 411 to pass through; when the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 is located outside the wire blocking space 730, the opening 740 is used for the second transmission tooth 421 to pass through.

[0067] In this embodiment, the support portion 720 is arranged by using the space between the first wire blocking portion 710 and the first driving source 420, so that the first wire blocking portion 710 is connected to the first driving source 420 through the support portion 720, so that the support portion 720 does not occupy the installation space in the fuselage 110 extra; in addition, the support portion 720 and the first wire blocking portion 710 are surrounded by a wire blocking space 730, and at least part of the gear shaft 410 is located in the wire blocking space 730, so that the support portion 720 can prevent the cable located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421, thereby reducing the risk of the cable being wound into the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 and being damaged. It can be seen that the support portion 720 of this embodiment can provide support for the first wire blocking portion 710 without occupying the installation space in the fuselage 110 extra, and the support portion 720 can also prevent the cable located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421.

The wire blocking space 730 is a space formed between the support portion 720 and the first wire blocking plate. The bottom of the wire blocking space 730 has an installation opening. In addition to the opening 740, the side of the wire blocking space 730 also has other open ends. Therefore, the support portion 720 cannot block the cables located on the side of the other open ends. This part of the cable may contact the second transmission tooth 421, thereby being drawn into the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421. In an optional embodiment, please refer to Fig.17The support portion 720 includes a second wire blocking portion 721, a third wire blocking portion 722 and a fourth wire blocking portion 723 which are connected in sequence, the second wire blocking portion 721 and the fourth wire blocking portion 723 are arranged opposite to each other, the first wire blocking portion 710, the second wire blocking portion 721, the third wire blocking portion 722 and the fourth wire blocking portion 723 are surrounded to form a wire blocking space 730, and the third wire blocking portion 722 is arranged opposite to the opening 740.

The side of the wire blocking space 730 has no other open ends except the opening 740. Therefore, the support portion 720 can block all cables located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 to prevent the cables located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421.

[0069] See also Fig.16 and Fig.17 , the first driving source 420 has an input cable. Specifically, the input cable is used to supply power to the first driving source 420 to drive the first driving source 420 to operate, and the input cable can be electrically connected to the second cable 670, and the second cable 670 is electrically connected to the first output port 212 on the circuit board 210. The first driving source 420 may vibrate during operation, which may cause the input cable to swing back and forth in the fuselage 110, and the input cable is prone to contact with the first transmission tooth 411 or the second transmission tooth 421 during the swinging process. Therefore, in an optional embodiment, a wire clamping portion 750 is provided on the support portion 720, and the wire clamping portion 750 is located outside the wire blocking space 730, and the input cable is connected to the wire clamping portion 750.

Furthermore, the clamping arm is elastic, so that it can be used for input cables of different thicknesses.

[0071] In the above embodiment, if the cable in the fuselage 110 is located above the first transmission tooth 411, the cable may contact the first transmission tooth 411, thereby damaging the first transmission tooth 411. In an optional embodiment, a fifth blocking portion 413 is provided on the gear shaft 410, and the fifth blocking portion 413 is provided above the first transmission tooth 411, and the top surface of the fifth blocking portion 413 is not higher than the top surface of the gear shaft 410, and in the vertical direction, the orthographic projection of the fifth blocking portion 413 covers at least a portion of the orthographic projection of the first transmission tooth 411, that is, the fifth blocking portion 413 can block at least a portion of the first transmission tooth 411 along the circumferential direction of the gear shaft 410, and / or, the fifth blocking portion 413 can block at least a portion of the first transmission tooth 411 along the radial direction of the gear shaft 410. In this embodiment, the fifth wire blocking portion 413 is located above the first transmission tooth 411, so the first wire blocking portion 710 can block the cable located above the first transmission tooth 411 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421, thereby reducing the risk of the cable being damaged by contacting the first transmission tooth 411. At the same time, the top surface of the fifth wire blocking portion 413 is not higher than the top surface of the gear shaft 410, so that the fifth wire blocking portion 413 can be prevented from occupying additional space above the gear shaft 410, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110 and reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, in the radial direction of the gear shaft 410, the outer edge of the fifth wire-blocking portion 413 protrudes from the outer edge of the first transmission tooth 411, so that the meshing area between the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 can be located within the fifth wire-blocking portion 413, that is, the fifth wire-blocking portion 413 can cover the meshing area between the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421, which can prevent the cables in the fuselage 110 from being rolled into the meshing area between the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421. This embodiment can be combined with the solution that the wire-blocking member 700 includes a support portion 720, in which case the opening 740 of the wire-blocking space 730 formed by the support portion 720 and the first wire-blocking portion 710 is used for the second transmission tooth 421 to pass through. Of course, the outer edge of the first transmission tooth 411 can also protrude from the outer edge of the fifth wire-blocking portion 413, and this application is not limited to this.

[0073] In an optional embodiment, there is a fitting gap between the edge of the first wire stop portion 710 facing the gear shaft 410 and the outer edge of the fifth wire stop portion 413, and the width W of the fitting gap is 1.2 mm to 2.0 mm. Specifically, there are manufacturing errors in the process of manufacturing the first wire stop portion 710 and the fifth wire stop portion 413, and there are assembly errors in the process of assembling the first wire stop portion 710 and the fifth wire stop portion 413. When the manufacturing errors and the assembly errors are superimposed, if the width W of the fitting gap is less than 1.2 mm, the fifth wire stop portion 413 may contact the first wire stop portion 710 during the rotation of the gear shaft 410, causing the gear shaft 410 to get stuck during the rotation; if the width W of the fitting gap is greater than 2.0 mm, the cables in the fuselage 110 may pass through the fitting gap and contact the first transmission tooth 411 or the second transmission tooth 421. In this embodiment, the width W of the fitting gap is controlled within a range of 1.2 mm to 2.0 mm, which can prevent the gear shaft 410 from getting stuck during rotation and prevent the cables in the body 110 from passing through the fitting gap and contacting the first transmission teeth 411 or the second transmission teeth 421 .

[0074] Optionally, the top surface of the first blocking wire portion 710 and the top surface of the fifth blocking wire portion 413 may be lower than the top surface of the gear shaft 410. In this case, the top surface of the gear shaft 410 protrudes from the top surface of the first blocking wire portion 710, and the top surface of the gear shaft 410 protrudes from the top surface of the fifth blocking wire portion 413, which makes the height of the gear shaft 410 higher, thereby making the height of the fuselage 110 larger. In an optional embodiment, the top surface of the first blocking wire portion 710, the top surface of the fifth blocking wire portion 413, and the top surface of the gear shaft 410 are located in the same horizontal plane, which can reduce the height of the gear shaft 410, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110.

[0075] The gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 may also be arranged along Fig.23 The x-arrow line in the figure is spaced apart in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line. The x-arrow line here may be the length direction of the fuselage 110. In this case, in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line, the overall length of the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 after being assembled is longer, which will occupy more installation space in the fuselage 110 in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line. In an optional embodiment, please refer to Fig.23 , the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 are spaced apart in the first direction, and there is a first angle between the first direction and the second direction, wherein the second direction is the direction extending from the first lens assembly 120 to the gear shaft 410, and the second direction is orthogonal to the central axis of the gear shaft 410. It should be noted that the first direction here is Fig.23 The direction indicated by the y arrow line, the second direction here is Fig.23The direction indicated by the x-arrow line; the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 of this embodiment are spaced apart in the first direction, and there is a first angle between the first direction and the second direction. Compared with the previous embodiment, in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line, the overall length of the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 of this embodiment after assembly is small, so that the length of the body 110 in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line can be compressed.

[0076] Furthermore, the first angle is less than 90°, or the first angle is greater than 90°. This embodiment can avoid the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 being spaced apart in the third direction, where the third direction is perpendicular to the second direction and the central axis of the gear shaft 410, respectively, so that the width of the gear shaft 410 and the first driving source 420 after assembly in the third direction can be reduced, thereby compressing the width of the body 110 in the third direction.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, at least two first lenses 121 include a first sub-lens and a second sub-lens, the axis of the first sub-lens and the axis of the second sub-lens have a second angle, a receiving space 122 is formed between the first sub-lens and the second sub-lens, and a portion of the gear shaft 410 is located in the receiving space 122. In this embodiment, the first angle between the axis of the first sub-lens and the axis of the second sub-lens can make the field of view of the first sub-lens partially overlap with the field of view of the second sub-lens, so that the picture taken by the first sub-lens and the picture taken by the second sub-lens partially overlap, thereby facilitating the splicing of the pictures taken by the first sub-lens and the second sub-lens; the first angle between the axis of the first sub-lens and the axis of the second sub-lens can form a receiving space 122 between the first sub-lens and the second sub-lens, and this embodiment makes full use of the receiving space 122, and a portion of the gear shaft 410 is disposed in the receiving space 122, so that the installation space in the fuselage 110 occupied by the components disposed in the fuselage 110 in the length direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the length of the fuselage 110 and compressing the volume of the fuselage 110.

[0078] Optionally, the first driving source 420 may be located above the gear shaft 410. In this case, although the first driving source 420 can drive the gear shaft 410 to rotate, at least a portion of the first driving source 420 exceeds the top surface of the gear shaft 410. This will cause the first driving source 420 to additionally occupy space in the height direction of the fuselage 110, thereby increasing the height of the fuselage 110.

[0079] In an optional embodiment, if Figures 5 to 8As shown, the first driving source 420 and the gear shaft 410 are spaced apart in the horizontal direction, the gear shaft 410 is rotatably arranged below the horizontal section 221, and the axis of the gear shaft 410 is parallel to the vertical direction, the gear shaft 410 is provided with a first transmission tooth 411, the output end of the first driving source 420 is provided with a second transmission tooth 421 meshingly connected with the first transmission tooth 411, the gear shaft 410 is connected to the bottom shell 310, and the first driving source 420 is used to drive the bottom shell 310 to rotate horizontally. Optionally, the first driving source 420 can be a motor, a hydraulic motor, etc. The specific operation process is as follows: the first driving source 420 can drive the first transmission tooth 411 to rotate, and the first transmission tooth 411 can drive the gear shaft 410 provided with the second transmission tooth 421 to rotate around the axis of the gear shaft 410 during the rotation process, thereby driving the bottom shell 310 to rotate horizontally, and the second lens assembly 320 is arranged on the bottom shell 310, and when the bottom shell 310 rotates horizontally, the second lens assembly 320 rotates horizontally accordingly. It can be seen that the first driving source 420 of the present embodiment can drive the second lens assembly 320 to rotate horizontally by driving the bottom shell 310 to rotate horizontally. When the number of second lens assemblies 320 is multiple, the present embodiment can still drive all the second lens assemblies 320 to rotate by one first driving source 420 and one gear shaft 410. Compared with driving multiple second lens assemblies 320 to rotate separately by multiple driving sources, the present embodiment uses fewer first driving sources 420, thereby reducing the installation space occupied by the first driving source 420 in the body 110, and further reducing the volume of the body 110.

[0080] In the present embodiment, the first driving source 420 and the gear shaft 410 are spaced apart in the horizontal direction, so that at least a portion of the first driving source 420 can be opposite to the gear shaft 410. Compared with the previous embodiment, the first driving source 420 of the present embodiment has a larger portion opposite to the gear shaft 410, and a smaller portion of the first driving source 420 protruding from the top surface of the gear shaft 410, or the first driving source 420 does not protrude from the top surface of the gear shaft 410. This can reduce or even avoid the first driving source 420 from additionally occupying the space in the height direction of the fuselage 110, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110.

[0081] Optionally, both the first transmission teeth 411 and the second transmission teeth 421 can be gears, that is, the first transmission teeth 411 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the gear shaft 410, and the outer circumferential surface of the gear shaft 410 has a full circle of first transmission teeth 411, so that in the radial direction of the gear shaft 410, the first transmission teeth 411 will occupy a larger installation space in the fuselage 110, and will increase the risk of the cables in the fuselage 110 contacting with the first transmission teeth 411 and being drawn into the meshing area between the first transmission teeth 411 and the second transmission teeth 421. In an optional embodiment, the first transmission teeth 411 are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the gear shaft 410, and the first transmission teeth 411 are provided in a partial circumferential area of ​​the gear shaft 410. In this embodiment, the first transmission teeth 411 are arranged in a partial circumferential area of ​​the gear shaft 410, that is, the first transmission teeth 411 are not distributed in a full circle along the circumference of the gear shaft 410, and the area of ​​the gear shaft 410 where the first transmission teeth 411 are not distributed will not occupy additional installation space in the fuselage 110, which can reduce the volume of the fuselage 110; in addition, the first transmission teeth 411 are not distributed in a full circle along the circumference of the gear shaft 410, which can reduce the risk of cables in the fuselage 110 contacting the first transmission teeth 411, thereby reducing the risk of cables being damaged by the first transmission teeth 411 and the second transmission teeth 421, and the risk of cables obstructing the engagement of the first transmission teeth 411 and the second transmission teeth 421.

[0082] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 18 to Figure 19 , Fig. 22 As shown, the body 110 includes a lower cover 111, a mounting hole 112 is provided on the lower cover 111, a part of the gear shaft 410 is rotatably disposed in the mounting hole 112, and a protrusion 311 is provided on a side of the bottom shell 310 facing the body 110, at least a part of the protrusion 311 is rotatably disposed in the mounting hole 112, and the protrusion 311 is connected to the gear shaft 410. Specifically, the mounting hole 112 can penetrate the lower cover 111 in the vertical direction, and the gear shaft 410 is connected to the protrusion 311 of the bottom shell 310, so that the gear shaft 410 can drive the protrusion 311 to rotate during the rotation process, and then drive the bottom shell 310 to rotate; the shape of the protrusion 311 can be cylindrical or prismatic, and the present application does not limit the shape of the protrusion 311. If the gear shaft 410 is entirely located outside the mounting hole 112, the height of the gear shaft 410 in the body 110 is relatively high, and therefore the height of the body 110 needs to be increased to accommodate the height of the gear shaft 410. In this embodiment, the mounting hole 112 is provided on the lower cover 111, and a portion of the gear shaft 410 is located in the mounting hole 112, so that the height of the gear shaft 410 in the body 110 can be reduced, thereby compressing the height of the body 110 and reducing the volume of the body 110.

[0083] Optionally, the protrusion 311 and the gear shaft 410 can be connected by a snap-fitting method, but the connection strength of the snap-fitting is not high, and the protrusion 311 and the gear shaft 410 are easily separated. In an optional embodiment, the multi-eye camera further includes a threaded connector 610, the bottom shell 310 includes an upper cover 312, the protrusion 311 is arranged on the upper cover 312, and a connecting hole 313 is arranged on the side of the upper cover 312 facing away from the fuselage 110, and the connecting hole 313 extends into the protrusion 311, and the top surface of the protrusion 311 is in contact with the bottom surface of the gear shaft 410, and one end of the threaded connector 610 passes through the protrusion 311 through the connecting hole 313 and is threadedly connected to the gear shaft 410 to connect the protrusion 311 to the gear shaft 410. Optionally, the bottom shell 310 further includes a main body 318, the upper cover 312 and the main body 318 are detachably connected, and the second lens assembly 320 is rotatably arranged in the main body 318.

[0084] In this embodiment, the protrusion 311 is connected to the gear shaft 410 through a threaded connector 610, and the connection strength of the threaded connector 610 is relatively high, so that the protrusion 311 can be prevented from being separated from the gear shaft 410; at the same time, the top surface of the protrusion 311 fits the bottom surface of the gear shaft 410, that is, there is no gap between the protrusion 311 and the gear shaft 410, so that the overall height of the protrusion 311 and the gear shaft 410 after assembly can be reduced, thereby reducing the height of the fuselage 110 or the bottom shell 310, and reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera. In addition, the upper cover 312 is provided with a connecting hole 313, and one end of the threaded connector 610 passes through the protrusion 311 through the connecting hole 313 and is connected to the gear shaft 410, that is, the other end of the threaded connector 610 is located in the connecting hole 313, so that the other end of the threaded connector 610 can be prevented from occupying the installation space in the bottom shell 310, thereby reducing the height of the bottom shell 310, thereby reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0085] Optionally, the multi-eye camera further includes a bearing 640, an annular groove is provided at the bottom end of the gear shaft 410, the annular groove extends to the bottom surface of the gear shaft 410, the bearing 640 is provided between the gear shaft 410 and the mounting hole 112, and a portion of the gear shaft 410 is located in the annular groove, and the top wall of the annular groove is connected to the bearing 640, a step surface is provided in the mounting hole 112, the step surface and the top surface of the protrusion 311 are located in the same horizontal plane, the inner ring of the bearing 640 is provided on the top surface of the protrusion 311, and the outer ring of the bearing 640 is provided on the step surface. Optionally, after the bearing 640 is provided on the step surface, the bearing 640 can be fixed to the step surface by screws to prevent the bearing 640 from moving upward.

[0086] In this embodiment, the bearing 640 is provided between the gear shaft 410 and the mounting hole 112 to reduce the friction between the gear shaft 410 and the mounting hole 112, so as to reduce the driving power of the first driving device 400, thereby reducing the volume of the first driving device 400, and further reducing the volume of the body 110. In addition, the step surface and the top surface of the protrusion 311 can jointly support the bearing 640 to fix the bearing 640 on the lower cover 111, and at the same time, an annular groove is provided on the gear shaft 410, and the top wall of the annular groove is connected to the bearing 640, that is, the gear shaft 410 can be hung on the bearing 640 through the annular groove, so that the gear shaft 410 is fixed on the lower cover 111. It can be seen that in this embodiment, the bearing 640 and the gear shaft 410 can be fixed by the protrusion 311, the step surface in the mounting hole 112, and the annular groove on the gear shaft 410, and the above structures do not occupy additional installation space, so that the bearing 640 and the gear shaft 410 can be fixed while ensuring that the volume of the multi-eye camera is not increased. The assembly process of the bearing 640 and the gear shaft 410 can be referred to Figure 8 .

[0087] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 13 to Figure 14 As shown, the protrusion 311 is provided with a second threading hole 330, and the second threading hole 330 extends from the top surface of the protrusion 311 to the bottom surface of the upper cover 312, and the second threading hole 330 is spaced apart from the connecting hole 313. When this embodiment is combined with the technical solution that the gear shaft 410 has the first threading hole 412, the first threading hole 412 and the second threading hole 330 are connected.

[0088] like Fig.18 As shown, when this embodiment is combined with the technical solution of the multi-eye camera including a bearing 640, since the protrusion 311 and the step surface jointly support the bearing 640, the bearing 640 and the gear shaft 410 will apply a force to the protrusion 311, and the inner ring of the bearing 640 is arranged between the inner circumference of the connecting hole 313 of the protrusion 311 and the outer circumference of the protrusion 311. Since the bearing 640 and the gear shaft 410 will apply a force to this part, the present application has requirements for the wall thickness of this part; if the second threading hole 330 is a circular hole, the connecting hole 313 and the second threading hole 330 are arranged at intervals, then the distance between the inner circumference of the connecting hole 313 and the outer circumference of the protrusion 311 is small, that is, the wall thickness of the above-mentioned part is small, and at this time it is necessary to increase the size of the protrusion 311, and then increase the distance between the inner circumference of the connecting hole 313 and the outer circumference of the protrusion 311, and increasing the size of the protrusion 311 will increase the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0089] Therefore, in an optional embodiment, Fig.14As shown, the second threading hole 330 has a wide portion and a narrow portion 331, the width of the narrow portion 331 is smaller than the width of the wide portion, and the connecting hole 313 is arranged adjacent to the narrow portion 331. In this embodiment, the connecting hole 313 is arranged adjacent to the narrow portion 331, so that the distance between the inner circumference of the connecting hole 313 and the outer circumference of the protrusion 311 can be increased, so that there is no need to increase the size of the protrusion 311, thereby solving the problem of increasing the volume of the multi-eye camera. Further, the wide portion includes a first wide portion and a second wide portion, and the narrow portion 331 is located between the first wide portion and the second wide portion, so that the second threading hole 330 is a threading hole with wide ends and narrow in the middle, which can improve the threading capacity of the second threading hole 330.

[0090] In an optional embodiment, a first positioning portion 340 is provided on the top surface of the protrusion 311 , and a second positioning portion is provided on the bottom surface of the gear shaft 410 , and the first positioning portion 340 is positioned and matched with the second positioning portion.

[0091] Further, the first positioning portion 340 is a positioning convex portion, and the second positioning portion is a positioning concave portion. In the direction extending from the gear shaft 410 to the protrusion 311, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first positioning portion 340 gradually increases, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second positioning portion gradually increases; or, the first positioning portion 340 is a positioning concave portion, and the second positioning portion is a positioning convex portion. In the direction extending from the gear shaft 410 to the protrusion 311, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first positioning portion 340 gradually decreases, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second positioning portion gradually decreases. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the open portion of the positioning concave portion is larger, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the free end of the positioning convex portion is smaller, so that the positioning convex portion is easier to enter the positioning concave portion, and then it is easy to position and cooperate with the positioning concave portion, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly. It should be noted that, in the case where the first positioning portion 340 is a positioning convex portion, the free end of the positioning convex portion refers to the end of the positioning convex portion away from the protrusion 311; in the case where the second positioning portion is a positioning convex portion, the free end of the positioning convex portion refers to the end of the positioning convex portion away from the gear shaft 410.

[0092] In the above embodiment, since the bottom shell 310 is disposed below the lower cover 111 and can rotate horizontally, there is a rotation gap between the bottom shell 310 and the lower cover 111, and water and dust in the external environment can easily enter the mounting hole 112 through the rotation gap, and then enter the body 110 and the bottom shell 310, which may damage the electronic components in the body 110 and the bottom shell 310. In an optional embodiment, the multi-eye camera further includes a sealing member 620, which is disposed between the bottom shell 310 and the lower cover 111, and the sealing member 620 is disposed around the outside of the mounting hole 112, and a recessed portion 113 is provided on a side of the lower cover 111 facing the bottom shell 310, and the mounting hole 112 is disposed in the recessed portion 113, and at least a portion of the sealing member 620 is located in the recessed portion 113. In this embodiment, a seal 620 is provided between the bottom shell 310 and the lower cover 111, and the seal 620 can seal the rotation gap between the bottom shell 310 and the lower cover 111, thereby preventing water and dust in the external environment from entering the mounting hole 112 from the rotation gap; at the same time, a recess 113 is provided on the lower cover 111, and at least a part of the seal 620 is located in the recess 113, so that the installation space additionally occupied by the seal 620 in the height direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the overall height of the bottom shell 310 and the fuselage 110 after assembly, and further reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera. Optionally, the seal 620 is in the shape of a ring.

[0093] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 13 to Figure 14 As shown, a side of the bottom shell 310 facing the fuselage 110 is provided with an annular mounting protrusion 314, the mounting protrusion 314 is arranged around the outside of the protrusion 311, an annular mounting groove 315 is formed between the mounting protrusion 314 and the protrusion 311, at least a portion of the mounting protrusion 314 is located in the recessed portion 113, an annular cylinder 114 is provided in the recessed portion 113, the cylinder 114 is arranged around the outside of the mounting hole 112, and at least a portion of the cylinder 114 is located in the mounting groove 315, and a sealing member 620 is arranged between the cylinder 114 and the mounting protrusion 314. In this embodiment, at least a portion of the mounting protrusion 314 is located in the recessed portion 113, and a mounting groove 315 is formed between the mounting protrusion 314 and the protrusion 311, and at least a portion of the barrel 114 in the recessed portion 113 is located in the mounting groove 315, that is, the barrel 114 and the mounting protrusion 314 used to fix the seal 620 additionally occupy a small installation space in the height direction, or the barrel 114 and the mounting protrusion 314 do not additionally occupy the installation space in the height direction. It can be seen that this embodiment can also help reduce the volume of the multi-eye camera while achieving the fixing of the seal 620. In addition, the mounting protrusion 314 is located outside the seal 620, so that the mounting protrusion 314 can block rainwater in the external environment from directly contacting the seal 620, thereby preventing rainwater from damaging the seal 620.

[0094] The assembly process of the seal 620 is as follows: the seal 620 is assembled into the mounting protrusion 314; the protrusion 311 of the upper cover 312 is inserted into the mounting hole 112, during which the cylinder 114 is inserted between the seal 620 and the protrusion 311, thereby fixing the seal 620; the protrusion 311 is connected to the gear shaft 410 using the threaded connector 610. After the seal 620 is assembled into the mounting protrusion 314, the seal 620 can be fixed to the mounting protrusion 314 by screws to prevent the seal 620 from moving upward.

[0095] like Figure 18 to Figure 19 As shown, the seal 620 includes a fixed frame 621 and a flexible sealing portion 622 connected to each other, the flexible sealing portion 622 is sealed and fitted with the cylinder 114, and the fixed frame 621 is fitted with the mounting protrusion 314. Optionally, the flexible sealing portion 622 can be made of rubber material, the fixed frame 621 can be a steel frame, the steel frame can be covered with a rubber layer, and the rubber layer can be integrally formed with the flexible sealing portion 622. There is friction between the flexible sealing portion 622 and the cylinder 114. When the force applied by the first driving device 400 to the sealing portion 620 is greater than the friction, the bottom shell 310 can rotate horizontally relative to the fuselage 110. At this time, relative movement will occur between the flexible sealing portion 622 and the cylinder 114, and the flexible sealing portion 622 can be elastically deformed. During the relative movement between the flexible sealing portion 622 and the cylinder 114, the flexible sealing portion 622 will extend downward. If the distance between the flexible sealing portion 622 and the bottom of the mounting groove 315 is small, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 315 will hinder the extension of the flexible sealing portion 622, which will increase the rotational resistance between the bottom shell 310 and the fuselage 110. This requires the first driving device 400 to provide a larger driving power, which will increase the volume of the first driving device 400, and then increase the volume of the fuselage 110.

[0096] Therefore, in an optional embodiment, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 315 is provided with a supporting protrusion 319, the fixing frame 621 is provided on the supporting protrusion 319, and the flexible sealing portion 622 is staggered with the flexible sealing portion 622. In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 315 is provided with a supporting protrusion 319, and the width of the supporting protrusion 319 is smaller than the width of the sealing member 620, that is, a groove is formed between the supporting protrusion 319 and the raised portion 311, and the flexible sealing portion 622 is arranged opposite to the groove, thereby increasing the distance between the flexible sealing portion 622 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 315. When the flexible sealing portion 622 extends downward, the flexible sealing portion 622 can extend into the groove, thereby solving the problem that the bottom wall of the mounting groove 315 hinders the extension of the flexible sealing portion 622.

[0097] In the previous embodiment, although the mounting protrusion 314 can prevent rainwater in the external environment from directly contacting the sealing member 620, when the rainwater in the external environment is large, the rainwater will splash during the contact between the rainwater and the mounting protrusion 314, and then splash onto the sealing member 620, which may cause damage to the sealing member 620. In an optional embodiment, a water retaining portion 316 is further provided on a side of the bottom shell 310 facing the fuselage 110, at least a portion of the water retaining portion 316 is located in the recessed portion 113, the mounting protrusion 314 is provided between the water retaining portion 316 and the raised portion 311, and the water retaining portion 316 extends along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 314, and a water retaining space is provided between the water retaining portion 316 and the mounting protrusion 314. In this embodiment, a water retaining portion 316 is further provided on the bottom shell 310. The water retaining portion 316 is located outside the mounting protrusion 314, and a water retaining space is provided between the water retaining portion 316 and the mounting protrusion 314, so that rainwater in the external environment will first contact the water retaining portion 316. Even when the rainwater in the external environment is large, the rainwater splashes during the contact with the water retaining portion 316, and most or even all of the splashed rainwater will fall into the water retaining space, so that the risk of rainwater damaging the sealing member 620 can be reduced. At the same time, at least a portion of the water retaining portion 316 is located in the recessed portion 113, so that the installation space in the height direction additionally occupied by the water retaining portion 316 can be reduced, thereby reducing the overall height of the bottom shell 310 and the fuselage 110 after assembly, and further reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera. Optionally, the water retaining portion 316 may be an integrated annular structure, or the water retaining portion 316 may include a plurality of spaced arcuate structural members extending circumferentially along the mounting protrusion 314, and a drainage outlet connected to the water retaining space may be formed between two adjacent arcuate structural members, so that rainwater in the water retaining space can be discharged.

[0098] In the above-mentioned embodiment, after the seal 620 is assembled between the cylinder 114 and the mounting protrusion 314, the seal 620 needs to be compressed sufficiently to ensure that the seal 620 has a good sealing effect. When the compression of the seal 620 is large, the seal 620 will exert a large force on the mounting protrusion 314, which may cause damage to the mounting protrusion 314. To solve the above-mentioned problem, in an optional embodiment, a reinforcing rib 317 is provided between the water retaining portion 316 and the mounting protrusion 314. In this embodiment, the water retaining portion 316 is connected to the mounting protrusion 314 by the reinforcing rib 317, and the reinforcing rib 317 and the water retaining portion 316 can provide support for the mounting protrusion 314, thereby reducing the risk of the mounting protrusion 314 being damaged by the seal 620.

[0099] In an optional embodiment, if Figures 5 and 6As shown, at least two electronic components are provided on one side of the circuit board 210 facing the horizontal section 221, and the at least two electronic components include a first component and a second component, the height of the first component is less than the height of the second component, and the horizontal section 221 is arranged relative to the first component and is staggered with the second component. In this embodiment, when there is a height difference between the electronic components arranged on the circuit board 210, the horizontal section 221 can be arranged relative to the lower electronic component, that is, the first component, and the horizontal section 221 can also avoid the higher electronic component, that is, the second component. Such an arrangement can make full use of the space below the first component, so that the height of the horizontal section 221 can be appropriately reduced, so that the height of the fuselage 110 is smaller, thereby reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0100] Furthermore, one side of the circuit board 210 facing the horizontal section 221 has an image and audio area 214, a high device area 215 and a power supply area 216 that are spaced apart. The image and audio area 214 is arranged adjacent to the gear shaft 410 and is located on the side of the vertical section 222 that is away from the gear shaft 410. The high device area 215 and the power supply area 216 are both located on the side of the vertical section 222 that faces the gear shaft 410.

[0101] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the bottom surface of the fuselage 110 is provided with a mounting post 115, and the vertical section 222 is connected to the mounting post 115, and the bottom surface of the vertical section 222 is lower than the top surface of the mounting post 115, and the height of the top surface of the vertical section 222 is less than the sum of the height of the vertical section 222 and the height of the mounting post 115. The vertical section 222 is provided on the bottom surface of the fuselage 110 through the mounting post 115, the height of the vertical section 222 is h1, and the height of the mounting post 115 is h2. If the bottom surface of the vertical section 222 is connected to the top surface of the mounting post 115 in a close fit, the height of the top surface of the vertical section 222 is h1+h2, which will make the height of the circuit board 210 provided on the top surface of the vertical section 222 higher, thereby increasing the height of the fuselage 110. In the present embodiment, the bottom surface of the vertical section 222 is lower than the top surface of the mounting column 115, that is, in the direction extending from the first lens assembly 120 to the gear shaft 410, a portion of the orthographic projection of the vertical section 222 overlaps with a portion of the orthographic projection of the mounting column 115. In this way, the height of the top surface of the vertical section 222 can be made less than h1+h2, thereby reducing the height of the horizontal section 221, thereby reducing the height of the body 110, and reducing the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0102] Furthermore, a positioning notch is provided on the bottom surface of the vertical section 222, and a positioning protrusion is provided on the side surface of the mounting column 115, and the positioning notch and the positioning protrusion are positioned and matched. In this embodiment, in the process of assembling the vertical section 222 to the mounting column 115, the positioning notch and the positioning protrusion can be positioned and matched, so as to ensure that the vertical section 222 is installed at the preset position of the mounting column 115; in addition, the positioning protrusion can also support the vertical section 222, so that the vertical section 222 and the positioning protrusion are matched in the upper limit position in the vertical downward direction, so as to increase the connection strength between the mounting column 115 and the vertical section 222.

[0103] In an optional embodiment, if Fig. 22 As shown, there is a rotation gap between the bottom shell 310 and the body 110, and the height H of the rotation gap is 1mm to 2.5mm. Specifically, there are manufacturing errors in the process of manufacturing the bottom shell 310 and the body 110, and there are assembly errors in the process of assembling the bottom shell 310 and the body 110. When the manufacturing errors and the assembly errors are superimposed, if the height H of the rotation gap is less than 1mm, the bottom shell 310 is prone to get stuck during the rotation process; if the height H of the rotation gap is greater than 2.5mm, the height of the multi-eye camera will be larger, and then the volume of the multi-eye camera will be larger. The embodiment of the present application controls the height H of the rotation gap to 1mm to 2.5mm, which can prevent the bottom shell 310 from getting stuck during the rotation process, and can also make the height and volume of the multi-eye camera smaller.

[0104] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the circuit board 210 has a power interface 211, a first output port 212, and a second output port 213 on one side facing the horizontal section 221. The first output port 212 is adjacent to the first driving device 400 and is electrically connected to the first driving device 400. The second output port 213 is adjacent to the gear shaft 410 and is electrically connected to the second driving device 500. Optionally, the power interface 211 can be electrically connected to the power line 660 to supply power to the circuit board 210; the first output port 212 can be electrically connected to the first driving device 400 through the second cable 670 to supply power to the first driving source 420 of the first driving device 400; the second output port 213 can be electrically connected to the second driving device 500 through the first cable 630 to supply power to the second driving source 510 of the second driving device 500. If the first output port 212 is adjacent to the first driving device 400, the length of the second cable 670 can be shortened; if the second output port 213 is adjacent to the gear shaft 410, the length of the first cable 630 can be shortened, thereby making the layout in the fuselage 110 more compact.

[0105] The gear shaft 410 is provided with a first threading hole 412, which passes through the gear shaft 410 in the vertical direction. The power interface 211 and the first output port 212 are located on a side of the vertical section 222 close to the horizontal section 221, and the second output port 213 is located on a side of the vertical section 222 away from the horizontal section 221. In this embodiment, the first output port 212 and the second output port 213 are respectively located on opposite sides of the vertical section 222, so that the first cable 630 and the second cable 670 can be separated, thereby optimizing the line layout in the fuselage 110.

[0106] Furthermore, a threading hole 224 is provided on the top wall of the notch 223, and the first cable 630 can pass through the threading hole 224 to be electrically connected to the second driving device 500. The provision of the threading hole 224 can compress the gap between the gear shaft 410 and the top wall of the notch 223, thereby reducing the height of the horizontal section 221 and further reducing the height of the fuselage 110.

[0107] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 20 to Figure 21 As shown, the second driving device 500 includes a second driving source 510, the rotation axis of the second lens assembly 320 is parallel to the horizontal direction, the central axis of the second driving source 510 is parallel to the rotation axis, the second driving source 510 is connected to the second lens assembly 320 in a transmission manner to drive the second lens assembly 320 to pitch and rotate, and the distance L between the rotation axis and the central axis is 34mm to 40mm. Optionally, the second driving source 510 can be an electric motor or a hydraulic motor. Specifically, the bottom shell 310 has a light-transmitting port, and the second lens assembly 320 is opposite to the light-transmitting port so that there is a gap between the field of view range corresponding to the field of view angle and the inner wall of the light-transmitting port, thereby preventing the bottom shell 310 from interfering with the field of view range and reducing the field of view range. The position of the second driving source 510 in the bottom shell 310 is relatively fixed, so the position of the central axis is relatively fixed, and the position of the rotation axis can be adjusted by adjusting the distance L between the rotation axis and the central axis. The second lens assembly 320 has a viewpoint, where the viewpoint refers to the vertex of the field of view angle, with Fig. 20 and Fig.21Taking the position as an example, if the distance L between the rotation axis and the central axis is less than 34mm, the position of the central axis will shift too much to the left. At this time, the central axis is located on the left side of the viewpoint, and the distance between the central axis and the viewpoint is large. When the second lens assembly 320 is not rotated, the viewpoint and the rotation axis are located in the same horizontal plane, and the second lens assembly 320 is rotating, the viewpoint will move upward or downward. At this time, the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located is not coplanar with the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located, and the distance between the two is large. The bottom shell 310 may block the field of view and make the field of view smaller. In this way, the size of the light-transmitting port can only be increased, but this will also increase the size of the bottom shell 310, thereby increasing the volume of the multi-eye camera; similarly, if the distance L between the rotation axis and the central axis is greater than 40mm, the position of the central axis will shift too much to the right. During the rotation of the second lens assembly 320, the viewpoint will move upward or downward. At this time, the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located is not coplanar with the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located, and the distance between the two is large, and the bottom shell 310 may also block the field of view. In this embodiment, the distance L between the rotation axis and the central axis is controlled to be 34mm to 40mm, which allows the viewpoint to be set close to the rotation axis, or even on the rotation axis. During the rotation of the second lens assembly 320, the viewpoint moves a smaller distance upward or downward, or may not move upward or downward (when the viewpoint is on the rotation axis). At this time, the distance between the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located and the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located is smaller, or even coplanar, which reduces the risk of the bottom shell 310 blocking the field of view, thereby solving the problem of increasing the size of the light-transmitting port and the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0108] Optionally, a bracket 540 is provided in the bottom shell 310, the first driving device 400 and the second lens assembly 320 are provided on the bracket 540, the bracket 540 has a window 541, the second lens assembly 320 is opposite to the window 541, and the first driving device 400 and the second lens assembly 320 are provided on the bracket 540 to reduce the assembly error of the first driving device 400 and the second lens assembly 320. The window 541 here is used for light to pass through, and the window 541 is opposite to the light transmission port described above.

[0109] Furthermore, a third transmission tooth 520 is provided at the output end of the second driving source 510, a fourth transmission tooth 530 is provided on the second lens assembly 320, the third transmission tooth 520 and the fourth transmission tooth 530 are meshed and connected, and the rotation axis of the second lens assembly 320 is located in a horizontal plane.

[0110] The present application also discloses a multi-camera, including:

[0111] A first camera unit 100, the first camera unit 100 includes a body 110 and a first lens assembly 120 built into the body 110;

[0112] A second camera unit 300 , which is stacked below the body 110 and includes a second lens assembly 320 ;

[0113] The first camera unit 100 includes:

[0114] The circuit board assembly 200 is disposed in the body 110. The circuit board assembly 200 includes a circuit board 210 and a fixing member 220. The fixing member 220 includes a horizontal section 221 and a vertical section 222 that are bent relatively. The circuit board 210 is horizontally stacked on the horizontal section 221. The vertical section 222 is provided with a notch 223.

[0115] A first driving device 400, which is disposed in the body 110. The first driving device 400 includes a gear shaft 410 disposed below the notch 223 and having first transmission teeth 411 in the circumferential direction, and a motor having second transmission teeth 421. The gear shaft 410 is fastened to the second camera unit 300, so that the meshing force between the first transmission teeth 411 and the second transmission teeth 421 can drive the second camera unit 300 to rotate horizontally around the axis of the gear shaft 410;

[0116] A first cable 630, one end of the first cable 630 is connected to the portion of the circuit board 210 extending out of the vertical section 222, and the other end of the first cable 630 is connected to the second lens assembly 320 via the notch 223;

[0117] The second cable 670 has one end connected to a portion of the circuit board 210 that does not extend out of the vertical section 222, and the other end connected to the motor; specifically, the vertical section 222 can separate the first cable 630 and the second cable 670, thereby optimizing the circuit layout in the fuselage 110.

[0118] The wire blocking member 700 is disposed above the motor and adjacent to the first transmission tooth 411. The wire blocking member 700 has a built-in wire blocking space 730 and an opening 740 facing the first transmission tooth 411, thereby covering the second transmission tooth 421 of the motor, so that during the horizontal rotation of the second camera unit 300, the second cable 670 avoids the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 due to the wire blocking member 700. In the present embodiment, the multi-eye camera further includes a wire blocking member 700, and the wire blocking member 700 can cover the second transmission tooth 421 of the motor, so that the wire blocking member 700 can prevent the second cable 670 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421, thereby reducing the risk of the second cable 670 being caught in the meshing area of ​​the first transmission tooth 411 and the second transmission tooth 421 and being damaged.

[0119] In an optional embodiment, the wire blocking member 700 includes a first wire blocking portion 710 and a support portion 720, the support portion 720 is connected to the first wire blocking portion 710 and extends downward, the support portion 720 is annular, and an opening 740 is provided on the support portion 720, and the first wire blocking portion 710 and the support portion 720 jointly form a wire blocking space 730. Optionally, the cross-section of the support portion 720 can be c-shaped, n-shaped, u-shaped, etc. In this embodiment, the side of the support portion 720 has no other open ends except the opening 740, so the support portion 720 can block all cables located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 to prevent the cables located on the side of the second transmission tooth 421 from contacting the second transmission tooth 421.

[0120] In an optional embodiment, the first lens assembly 120 is located on a side of the vertical section 222 away from the horizontal section 221, the gear shaft 410 and the motor are spaced apart in the first direction, and there is a first angle between the first direction and the second direction, wherein the second direction is a direction extending from the first lens assembly 120 to the gear shaft 410, and the second direction is orthogonal to the central axis of the gear shaft 410. It should be noted that the first direction here is Fig.23 The direction indicated by the y arrow line, the second direction here is Fig.23 The direction indicated by the x-arrow line; and the gear shaft 410 and the motor of this embodiment are spaced apart in the first direction, and there is a first angle between the first direction and the second direction. In this embodiment, in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line, the overall length of the gear shaft 410 and the motor after assembly is small, so that the length of the body 110 in the direction indicated by the x-arrow line can be compressed.

[0121] Furthermore, the first angle is less than 90°, or the first angle is greater than 90°. This embodiment can avoid the gear shaft 410 and the motor being spaced apart in the third direction, where the third direction is perpendicular to the second direction and the central axis of the gear shaft 410, respectively, so that the width of the gear shaft 410 and the motor after assembly in the third direction can be reduced, thereby compressing the width of the body 110 in the third direction.

[0122] In an optional embodiment, the second camera unit also includes a bottom shell, and the second lens assembly can be arranged in the bottom shell in a pitch-rotatable manner, and the rotation axis of the second lens assembly is parallel to the horizontal direction, the aperture value of the second lens assembly is F1.0, the total length is 21mm, and the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly close to its light incident side and the rotation axis is 6mm~8mm; in this embodiment, the viewpoint of the second lens assembly 320 and the end of the second lens assembly 320 close to the light incident side are 7mm. If the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly 320 close to its light incident side and the rotation axis is less than 6mm, the position of the central axis will shift too much to the right. At this time, the central axis is located on the right side of the viewpoint, and the distance between the central axis and the viewpoint is large. When the second lens assembly 320 is not rotated, the viewpoint and the rotation axis are located in the same horizontal plane. , and the viewpoint of the second lens assembly 320 will move upward or downward during the rotation process. At this time, the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located is not coplanar with the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located, and the distance between the two is large. The bottom shell 310 may block the field of view corresponding to the field of view angle, making the field of view smaller. In this way, the size of the light-transmitting port can only be increased, but this will also increase the size of the bottom shell 310, thereby increasing the volume of the multi-eye camera; similarly, if the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly 320 at one end close to its light incident side and the rotation axis is greater than 8mm, the position of the central axis will shift too much to the left. During the rotation process of the second lens assembly 320, the viewpoint will move upward or downward. At this time, the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located is not coplanar with the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located, and the distance between the two is large. The bottom shell 310 may also block the field of view, making the field of view smaller. In the embodiment of the present application, the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly close to its light incident side and the rotation axis is controlled to be 6mm to 8mm, which allows the viewpoint to be set close to the rotation axis, or even on the rotation axis. During the rotation of the second lens assembly 320, the viewpoint moves a small distance upward or downward, or even does not move upward or downward (when the viewpoint is on the rotation axis). At this time, the distance between the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located and the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located is small, or even coplanar, which reduces the risk of the bottom shell 310 blocking the field of view, thereby solving the problem of increasing the size of the light-transmitting port and the volume of the multi-eye camera.

[0123] Alternatively, the aperture value of the second lens assembly is F1.0, the total length is 30mm, and the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly 320 close to the light incident side and the rotation axis is 10mm-12mm. In this embodiment, the distance between the viewpoint of the second lens assembly 320 and the end of the second lens assembly 320 close to the light incident side is 11mm. Similarly, in this embodiment, the distance between the end face of the second lens assembly 320 close to the light incident side and the rotation axis is controlled to be 10mm-12mm, which can make the viewpoint be set close to the rotation axis, or even on the rotation axis. During the rotation of the second lens assembly 320, the distance that the viewpoint moves upward or downward is small, and it may not even move upward or downward (when the viewpoint is on the rotation axis). At this time, the distance between the horizontal plane where the viewpoint is located and the horizontal plane where the rotation axis is located is small, or even coplanar, which can reduce the risk of the bottom shell 310 blocking the field of view, thereby solving the problem of increasing the size of the light transmission port and the volume of the multi-eye camera.
