Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cameras, and in particular to a servo turntable for a video monitoring station. Background Art

[0002] Video surveillance stations are often installed in unmanned areas along the border or coast, and are generally equipped with radar systems and servo turntable systems. The servo turntable is a fixed installation, usually a two-dimensional turntable with an azimuth-pitch type. The servo turntable generally needs to be installed with optical detectors such as infrared thermal imagers and visible light cameras to observe the target. Usually, the working mode of the monitoring station is that the radar performs a scanning search and sends the searched target coordinate information to the servo turntable. After receiving the coordinate information, the servo turntable automatically moves to the target position and tracks the target with an infrared thermal imager or a visible light camera.

[0003] Due to the special use of the servo turntable, the transmission methods in the two dimensions of azimuth and pitch need to be designed differently. In addition, the servo turntable works in harsh outdoor environments for a long time, such as high temperature, high humidity, high salt fog or low temperature, severe cold, rain, snow, dust and long-term unattended operation. If the sealing is poor, the service life of the servo turntable will be greatly affected.
