A tracking camera control method and system for live broadcast pan-tilt head

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of pan-tilt tracking camera technology, and specifically to a tracking camera control method and system for a live pan-tilt platform, comprising a base, a rotating component, a rotating column, a mounting unit, a camera, a support unit, a control module and a rotating assembly; the rotating assembly comprises two clamping rods, a plurality of rebound limit blocks and two damping units. During rotation, the rotating column drives the two clamping rods to rotate inside the support unit, so that the clamping rods continuously move between the plurality of rebound limit blocks, contact with the inclined surface to push the plurality of rebound limit blocks to shrink and rebound in sequence. When an emergency stop occurs, the clamping rod loses driving power, which is not enough to continue to push the rebound limit blocks to compress, and is then restricted between two adjacent rebound limit blocks to avoid excessive rotation. At the same time, the damping unit also buffers the clamping rod, thereby relying on the rebound limit blocks to limit the camera that stops suddenly, limit the rotation distance, and avoid excessive rotation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of pan-tilt tracking camera technology, and in particular to a tracking camera control method and system for a live pan-tilt camera. Background Art

[0002] Currently, in traditional videography, the shooting equipment is manually held by humans. However, when broadcasting live sports events such as horse racing, car racing or football, the camera needs to track the target to shoot, thereby achieving the best viewing experience. Such equipment is usually large in size and difficult to operate, and manual operation is very labor-intensive.

[0003] In the prior art, a self-locking motor is provided on the gimbal. By controlling the rotation of the self-locking motor, the self-locking motor drives the gimbal to rotate through the driving gear and the driven gear, so that the gimbal can rotate according to the user's movement, realizing automatic tracking in the horizontal direction, thereby replacing manual automatic rotation adjustment and achieving the effect of tracking camera.

[0004] However, in the aforementioned existing technologies, when live broadcasting intense sports events, the target being tracked may move quickly and stop suddenly, requiring the gimbal to quickly rotate and stop suddenly to track the target. However, the traditional gimbal does not have a protective structure and is simply driven by a self-locking motor to rotate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6 The present invention provides a tracking camera system for a live broadcast pan-tilt platform, comprising a base 1, a rotating component 2, a rotating column 3, a mounting unit, a camera 4, a support unit, a control module 5 and a rotating assembly, wherein the rotating assembly comprises two clamping rods 6, a plurality of rebound limit blocks 7 and two damping units, each of the rebound limit blocks 7 having an inclined surface 8, the mounting unit comprises a lifting component 9, a U-shaped plate 10, an up and down adjustment component 11 and a mounting block 12, the support unit comprises a fixed annular shell 13, an annular groove 14 and a locking mechanism, the locking mechanism comprises two first The electromagnet 15 and the metal ring 16, the damping unit includes two support plates 17 and a first damping rod 18, the rotating assembly also includes two second damping rods 19, a buffer unit, multiple buffer pads 20 and multiple inclined blocks 21, the clamping rod 6 has a groove 22, the buffer unit includes an arc-shaped slide groove 23, a slider 24, a connecting plate 25, a support block 26, two balls 27, a third damping rod 28 and a connecting rod 29, the rotating assembly also includes multiple rebound units, the rebound unit includes a second electromagnet 30, a metal slot 31 and two springs 32.

[0033] In which, the rotating component 2 is arranged below the base 1, the output end of the rotating component 2 passes through the base 1 and is rotatably connected to the rotating column 3, the support unit is arranged on the outside of the rotating column 3, the mounting unit is arranged on the rotating column 3, the camera 4 is installed on the mounting unit, and the control module 5 is arranged above the base 1. Each of the rebound limit blocks 7 has a slope 8, and the two clamping rods 6 are fixedly connected to the rotating column 3 and are symmetrically distributed on the outside of the rotating column 3. Multiple rebound limit blocks 7 are distributed in sequence around the outside of the two clamping rods 6, and each clamping rod 6 is located between two adjacent rebound limit blocks 7. The two damping units are respectively arranged on the corresponding clamping rods 6. After the camera 4 captures the tracking target, the control module 5 controls the operation of the rotating component 2, and drives the rotating column 3 to rotate through the rotating component 2, so that the camera 4 rotates. During the rotation process, the rotating column 3 drives the two clamping rods 6 to rotate inside the supporting unit, so that the clamping rod 6 continuously moves between the multiple rebound limit blocks 7, contacts the inclined surface 8, and pushes the multiple rebound limit blocks 7 to shrink and rebound in sequence. When an emergency stop occurs, the clamping rod 6 loses the driving power, which is not enough to continue to push the rebound limit block 7 to compress, and then it will be restricted between the two adjacent rebound limit blocks 7 to avoid excessive rotation. At the same time, the damping unit also buffers the clamping rod 6.

[0034] Secondly, the lifting component 9 is disposed inside the rotating column 3. The output end of the lifting component 9 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped plate 10. The up-and-down adjustment component 11 is disposed inside the U-shaped plate 10. One side of the mounting block 12 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped plate 10, and the other side of the mounting block 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the up-and-down adjustment component 11. The camera 4 is mounted on one end of the mounting block 12. The lifting component 9 is a pneumatic cylinder. When the lifting component 9 is activated, it drives the U-shaped plate 10 to move up and down to adjust the height. The up-and-down adjustment component 11 is a self-locking motor. When the up-and-down adjustment component 11 is activated, it drives the mounting block 12 to rotate, thereby adjusting the up-and-down rotation angle of the camera 4.

[0035] At the same time, the fixed annular housing 13 is fixedly connected to the base 1 and is sleeved on the exterior of the rotating column 3. The annular groove 14 is fixedly connected to the fixed annular housing 13 and is located inside the fixed annular housing 13. The locking mechanism is provided on the rotating column 3 and the clamping rod 6. The fixed annular housing 13 supports the entire support unit, and the annular groove 14 supports the rebound stop 7. The locking mechanism can lock and secure the rotating column 3 after the rotating column 3 and the camera 4 have completely stopped to prevent displacement.

[0036] In addition, the two first electromagnets 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding latching rods 6 and are located below the latching rods 6. The metal ring 16 is fixedly connected to the rotating column 3 and is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating column 3. The first electromagnets 15 and the metal rings 16 attract each other. When the first electromagnets 15 are energized, they generate a magnetic force that attracts the metal rings 16, thereby limiting the position of the latching rods 6 and the rotating column 3, preventing the camera 4 from rotating.

[0037] Then, the two support plates 17 are both disposed on the inner bottom wall of the fixed annular housing 13, and the two ends of the first damping rod 18 are rotatably connected to the corresponding support plates 17. The support plates 17 support the first damping rod 18, and after an emergency stop occurs, the first damping rod 18 plays a buffering role.

[0038] Again, the clamping rod 6 has a groove 22, and the groove 22 is adapted to the inclined surface 8 of the rebound limit block 7. The two ends of the second damping rod 19 are respectively rotatably connected to the top of the rotating column 3 and the bottom of the U-shaped plate 10. The buffer unit is arranged above the fixed annular shell 13, and multiple buffer pads 20 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the corresponding clamping rod 6. Each buffer pad 20 is installed with the inclined block 21, and the inclined block 21 is adapted to the inclined surface 8. The second damping rod 19 can absorb shock on both sides of the U-shaped plate 10 to prevent the U-shaped plate 10 from shaking violently to the left and right during rapid rotation and emergency stop. The buffer unit can buffer the camera 4 that stops suddenly after up and down adjustment. After the rotating column 3 stops suddenly, when inertia occurs, it drives the card rod 6 to move between the two rebound limit blocks 7. At this time, the inclined block 21 contacts the inclined surface 8, and the buffer pad 20 has a buffering effect on the card rod 6; in addition, when the card rod 6 rotates, the groove 22 can also adapt to the rebound limit block 7. When the card rod 6 stops rotating, if the groove 22 happens to adapt to the rebound limit block 7, it will have a limiting effect on the card rod 6. If not, it will be buffered by the buffer pad 20, and then the inclined block 21 is fully in contact with the inclined surface 8 of the rebound limit block 7 to achieve a limiting effect.

[0039] In addition, the arc-shaped slot 23 is arranged above the fixed annular shell 13, the two ends of the connecting plate 25 are fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting block 12 and the support block 26 respectively, the slider 24 is slidably connected to the arc-shaped slot 23, the two balls 27 are respectively clearance-fitted with the support block 26 and the slider 24, the two balls 27 are respectively arranged inside the support block 26 and the slider 24, the two ends of the third damping rod 28 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding balls 27, and the two ends of the connecting rod 29 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 24 and the outer wall of the rotating column 3. When the rotating column 3 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 29 to rotate, so that the slider 24 slides in the arc-shaped slot 23 and rotates synchronously with the camera 4. When the mounting block 12 rotates up and down, it drives the connecting plate 25 to rotate up and down, so that the support block 26 moves up and down, and the corresponding sphere 27 rotates in the support block 26, and the other sphere 27 rotates inside the slider 24. At the same time, the third damping rod 28 follows and retracts. When an emergency stop occurs, the third damping rod 28 can play a damping and buffering role; in addition, the sphere 27 can rotate 360 ​​degrees without dead angles, and further drives the third damping rod 28 to damp and reduce lateral vibrations, thereby further improving the tracking stability of the camera 4.

[0040] Finally, the multiple rebound units are arranged in sequence inside the annular groove 14; the second electromagnet 30 is fixedly connected to the rebound limit block 7, the metal groove 31 is arranged on the inner wall of the annular groove 14, and the two ends of the two springs 32 are movably connected to the rebound limit block 7 and the inner wall of the annular groove 14 respectively. The second electromagnet 30 is energized to generate magnetic force, which causes the second electromagnet 30 to disengage from the metal groove 31, so that the rebound limit block 7 cannot shrink by metal, thereby limiting the clamping rod 6 between the two rebound limit blocks 7. At the same time, the buffer pads 20 on both sides of the clamping rod 6 reduce shock and reduce the shaking of the camera 4 above; when the clamping rod 6 needs to move, the second electromagnet 30 is powered off, and the rebound limit block 7 can be pushed at this time. During each compression and rebound process, the unpowered second electromagnet 30 is pushed into the metal groove 31, and then after the clamping rod 6 is removed, the rebound limit block 7 is rebounded and reset by the spring 32.

[0041] When using a tracking camera system of a live pan-tilt platform of this embodiment, after the camera 4 captures the tracking target, the control module 5 controls the operation of the rotating component 2, and drives the rotating column 3 to rotate through the rotating component 2, so that the camera 4 rotates. During the rotation process, the rotating column 3 drives the two clamping rods 6 to rotate inside the fixed annular shell 13, so that the clamping rod 6 continuously moves between the multiple rebound limit blocks 7, contacts the inclined surface 8, and pushes the multiple rebound limit blocks 7 to shrink and rebound in sequence. When an emergency stop occurs, the clamping rod 6 loses the driving power, which is not enough to continue to push the rebound limit block 7 to compress, and then it will be restricted between the two adjacent rebound limit blocks 7 to avoid excessive rotation. At the same time, the first damping rod 18 also buffers the clamping rod 6; the second damping rod 19 can absorb the shock on both sides of the U-shaped plate 10 to prevent the U-shaped plate 10 from shaking violently to the left and right during rapid rotation and emergency stop. The buffer unit can adjust the clamping rod 6 up and down. The camera 4 that stops suddenly is buffered. After the rotating column 3 stops suddenly, when inertia occurs, the card rod 6 is driven to move between the two rebound limit blocks 7. At this time, the inclined block 21 contacts the inclined surface 8, and the buffer pad 20 buffers the card rod 6. In addition, when the card rod 6 rotates, the groove 22 can also adapt to the rebound limit block 7. When the card rod 6 stops rotating, if the groove 22 is just adapted to the rebound limit block 7, the card rod 6 is limited. If not, the buffer pad 20 is used for buffering, and the inclined block 21 is in full contact with the inclined surface 8 of the rebound limit block 7 to achieve a limiting effect. Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the rebound limit block 7 is used to limit the camera 4 that stops suddenly, limit the rotation distance, and avoid excessive rotation. At the same time, under the action of the damping unit, the speed generated by inertia after the emergency stop is slowed down, and violent shaking and excessive movement after the emergency stop are avoided, thereby greatly improving the shooting quality.

[0042] See also Figure 7 The present invention also provides a tracking camera control method for a live broadcast PTZ, comprising the following steps:

[0043] S1: the camera 4 captures the tracking target, and the control module 5 controls the rotation component 2 to operate;

[0044] S2: The rotating component 2 drives the rotating column 3 to rotate, adjusts the rotation direction of the camera 4, and tracks the target;

[0045] S3: When the rotating column 3 rotates, the clamping rod 6 is driven to contact the inclined surface 8, pushing the rebound limit block 7 to shrink and rebound, so that the clamping rod 6 moves between the multiple rebound limit blocks 7;

[0046] S4: After the camera 4 stops suddenly, the damping unit plays a damping and buffering role, and at the same time the clamping rod 6 is limited between the two rebound limit blocks 7.

[0047] Among them, the camera 4 captures the tracking target, and the control module 5 controls the operation of the rotating component 2; the rotating component 2 drives the rotating column 3 to rotate, adjusts the rotation direction of the camera 4, and tracks the target; when the rotating column 3 rotates, it drives the clamping rod 6 to contact the inclined surface 8, pushing the rebound limit block 7 to shrink and rebound, so that the clamping rod 6 moves between multiple rebound limit blocks 7; after the camera 4 stops suddenly, the damping unit plays a damping and buffering role, and at the same time, the clamping rod 6 is limited between two rebound limit blocks 7.
