Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic product technology, specifically to an interconnected management system and device based on smart terminals and IP cameras. Background Technology

[0002] IP cameras generally refer to network cameras, which include a regular camera, video server, network card, and application software. Some also include pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) and zoom lenses. Network cameras are a new generation of cameras that combine traditional cameras with network technology. They can transmit images to the other side of the world via a network, and remote viewers do not need any professional software; a standard web browser is sufficient to monitor the images. In addition to a standard composite video signal output interface (BNC), network cameras also have a network output interface, allowing the camera to be directly connected to a local area network (LAN).

[0003] According to patent number CN202110262358.1, a network camera is disclosed. This network camera includes a housing, a lens mechanism, an angle adjustment mechanism, and a limiting structure. The housing has a clearance hole; the angle adjustment mechanism is located inside the housing; both ends of the lens mechanism are rotatably mounted on the housing and the angle adjustment mechanism respectively to adjust the monitoring angle of the lens mechanism. The image acquisition end of the lens mechanism is exposed outside the housing through the clearance hole; the limiting structure is configured to restrict the rotation of the lens mechanism around its own axis. By setting the limiting structure, the network camera can prevent the image from deviating from a horizontal state, thus preventing skewed imaging and ensuring that the image remains horizontal, facilitating user operation.

[0004] The aforementioned patent describes IP cameras, highlighting several issues that arise when transmitting video via IP cameras:

[0005] 1. Existing IP cameras typically connect to a network terminal, allowing users to view the video footage captured by the camera through software installed on the terminal. However, poor network signal can lead to video transmission failures, and the camera cannot guarantee normal video uploads when the network signal is weak. Using signal boosting devices to increase the success rate of data transmission in the long term will consume a lot of resources.

[0006] 2. Existing terminals can only save video data transmitted by IP cameras. The terminal's management system cannot manage and store the video and audio separately. If the original video file is lost, the stored data cannot be read. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Technical problems to be solved

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an interconnected management system and device based on smart terminals and IP cameras. It solves the problem that IP cameras cannot complete data upload normally when the signal is poor. At the same time, when the IP camera signal is poor, it automatically connects the signal extender to the power interface to extend the signal. Under normal circumstances, the extender is powered off, saving resources. When the terminal saves the transmitted data, it can divide the data into multiple data such as audio, video, and still video. If one data is lost, the data can be retrieved from the remaining data.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the interconnected management system based on smart terminals and IP cameras includes: a data transmission module, an encoding processing module, a signal expansion module, a camera adjustment module, a receiving and decoding module, and a management and allocation module. The signal expansion module is a signal expansion device, and its signal expansion is determined by the data transmission results. The management and allocation module includes steps such as allocation, storage, and deletion.

[0034] The data transmission module transmits video and audio data. Before data transmission, the video capture is done by the CMOS image sensor at the front end of the IP camera, which collects the raw video data. The final location of the data transmission is in the memory of the terminal hardware platform. The system software of the IP camera is installed in the system of the terminal hardware platform. The encoding module is located before data transmission. The transmitted data is processed and encoded by the coprocessor and then processed again before being sent to the terminal platform system. The transmitted data is processed again by the system software.

[0035] The receiving and decoding module receives data from the data transmission module, including video and audio data, and provides the decoded data to the management system. The received data is synchronously combined and stored using the AVI format. The management and allocation module allocates and stores all received data in the free area of ​​the terminal's local disk. Deletion is one of the functions of the management and allocation module. Deletion is based on the set storage time, and the data is automatically deleted after the specified time.

[0036] The camera body 1 encodes and transmits data in the form of audio and video. The data is then decoded and received by the connected terminal or smart terminal. After receiving the data, the system breaks down the audio and video into video, audio, and video. The system then saves and backs up the corresponding data in chronological order, thus allocating and managing the data. If the audio or video files are lost, personnel can still retrieve the lost data information through the video and audio. If one or all of the video or audio is lost, personnel can retrieve the lost data information from the audio and video backup data. Before video capture, personnel can adjust the shooting angle of the camera body 1 to ensure that the shooting angle of the camera body 1 is in the required position. When data transmission fails, the system can power on the signal extender 95 to enhance the signal of the device to ensure that the data can be transmitted normally.

[0037] Example 2:

[0038] like Figure 2-7 As shown, the interconnected management device based on smart terminals and IP cameras includes a camera body 1. The bottom surface of the camera body 1 is provided with a base 3 and a mounting plate 4. A mounting bracket 2 is provided between the base 3 and the camera body 1. The mounting bracket 2 is L-shaped. The base 3 is located on the top surface of the mounting plate 4. The center positions of the base 3 and the mounting plate 4 are the same. A power supply module 8 is placed in the groove inside the mounting plate 4. A signal expansion structure 9 is provided in the mounting slot of the mounting plate 4. The camera body 1 is an IP camera, also known as a network camera. The camera body 1 can compress images and transmit them over the network to a terminal with software installed. The terminal can be a smart terminal such as a mobile phone or tablet, or a computer. When the network signal is poor and the camera body 1 cannot complete the data compression and transmission, the network signal can be expanded through the signal expansion structure 9, so that the camera body 1 can compress and transmit data normally.

[0039] The signal expansion structure 9 includes an expander 95, which is located in the mounting slot of the mounting plate 4. A power board 94 is screwed into the mounting slot. The socket on the power board 94 is connected to the plug of the expander 95. Limiting brackets 96 and push plates 93 are respectively provided in the mounting slot of the mounting plate 4. The limiting brackets 96 are located on both sides of the mounting slot of the mounting plate 4. The two sides of the push plate 93 are attached to the two limiting brackets 96. The bottom surface of the push plate 93 is screwed to the expander 95. The limiting brackets 96 are located on both sides of the push plate 93 and are attached to the two sides of the push plate 93, so that the push plate 93 can be adjusted up and down along the limiting brackets 96 to ensure that the expander 95 can be connected to the power board 94.

[0040] The top surface of the push plate 93 is equipped with a spring 92 and an electromagnet 91. The electromagnet 91 is magnetically attracted to the metal part of the top surface of the push plate 93. The signal extension structure 9 is installed in the mounting slot of the mounting plate 4. The power supply module 8 is a lithium battery that can power devices such as the extender 95. The power supply module 8 is connected to the power board 94 through a line. If the data transmission fails and the system does not receive information normally, the electromagnet 91 is turned off. The push plate 93 is pushed out together with the extender 95 by the rebound force of the spring 92 until the plug of the extender 95 is inserted into the socket of the power board 94 to complete the power-on operation and enhance the network signal of the camera body 1. After the data transmission is completed, the electromagnet 91 is powered on again. The electromagnet 91 is magnetically attracted to the metal part of the top surface of the push plate 93. The push plate 93 is attracted by the upward attraction and squeezes the spring 92 until it is in contact with the electromagnet 91. At this time, the extender 95 is separated from the power board 94 to complete the power-off operation of the extender 95.

[0041] A sleeve head 5 is fitted onto the surface of the camera body 1. A rotating rod 6 is provided on one side of the sleeve head 5. The sleeve head 5 and the surface of the camera body 1 cooperate with each other. The rotating rod 6 is welded to one side of the sleeve head 5 and is fitted into the interface on the side of the mounting bracket 2. The rotating rod 6 is axially connected to the interface of the mounting bracket 2. A positioning adjustment structure 7 is provided on one side of the mounting bracket 2. The positioning adjustment structure 7 includes a power module 71, which includes a motor 711 and a rotary cylinder 712. A connecting frame 73 is fitted onto the surface of the motor 711. A bevel gear 72 is respectively installed on the rotating end of the motor 711 and one end of the rotating rod 6. The rotary cylinder 712 is located in a groove at the center of the top surface of the base 3. The rotating end of the rotary cylinder 712 is connected to the mounting bracket. The bottom of the bracket 2 is connected to the mounting plate 4. When the camera body 1 is in use, the mounting plate 4 can be connected to the desired position. If the shooting angle of the camera body 1 needs to be changed when using the device, the orientation adjustment structure 7 can be controlled. The power module 71 of the orientation adjustment structure 7 is divided into a motor 711 and a rotary cylinder 712. The bevel gear 72 at the rotating end of the motor 711 meshes with the bevel gear 72 on the rotating rod 6. When the motor 711 is working, the angle of the camera body 1 can be adjusted. At the same time, the rotating end of the rotary cylinder 712 is connected to the mounting bracket 2. When the rotary cylinder 712 is working, the mounting bracket 2 and the camera body 1 can be adjusted again so that the camera body 1 is located at the desired recording angle.
