Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of shooting equipment technology, specifically to an underwater shooting device for image stabilization and defogging. Background Technology
[0002] Underwater filming equipment is an important tool for acquiring images and videos of underwater environments. Currently, underwater filming equipment typically includes a camera and an external waterproof structure, which protects the camera from water. However, underwater filming often faces challenges such as camera shake and the fogging effect of the underwater environment. These issues affect image clarity and quality, thus limiting the application range and effectiveness of underwater filming.
[0003] In underwater environments, cameras are susceptible to the effects of water currents, waves, and tides, causing image shake. This shake reduces image clarity and provides a poor viewing experience. Furthermore, due to the low temperature and high humidity underwater, if the external waterproofing of the equipment is not adequately sealed, water can slowly seep in. Given the temperature difference between the inside and outside, condensation can form on the inner walls of the waterproofing structure, resulting in blurry images and difficulty in discerning details.

The limiting spring is connected between the positioning rod and the mounting base, the top rod is connected to the top of the positioning rod, and the handle is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0012] Preferably, the pressing valve is located at the end of the high-pressure gas tank, and the high-pressure gas tank is provided with a plug and a slot connection. The plug is provided with a positioning hole, and the positioning rod is connected in the positioning hole.
[0013] Preferably, the deformation guide structure includes a guide seat disposed in the waterproof cover, a slide seat disposed on the guide seat, and a top pressure spring fixedly connected to the slide seat.

[0014] Preferably, the slide is horizontally arranged, and the push plate is arranged on both sides of the slide, with the two ends of the rotating plate located on the sides of the slide and the push plate, respectively.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The underwater shooting device of the present invention mainly consists of an external waterproof structure and a camera therein. The external waterproof structure can support and protect the camera. It consists of two parts: a waterproof cover and a waterproof cap. The waterproof cover and the waterproof cap are set as a double-layer structure. The inner layer is the inner cover. It can be sealed and waterproofed by the inner and outer sealing rings. Furthermore, an elastic cover is set between the inner and outer layers. The deformable elastic cover forms a waterproof sealing structure between the two layers, which effectively prevents water from entering the inner cover, prevents water mist from appearing on the light-sensing path of the camera, and improves the image forming effect.
[0016] 2. The camera is mounted on the inner cover of the present invention via a shock-absorbing mount, and the shock-absorbing spring and pad in the energy-absorbing and anti-shake structure absorb and filter out minor vibrations, preventing water waves, turbulence and the instability of the photographer from affecting the shooting effect.
[0017] 3. The present invention also includes an air inlet and an installation structure on the waterproof cover, which can be connected to a high-pressure gas tank. The air pressure generated by the high-pressure gas tank improves the waterproof effect of the waterproof structure. The installation structure can quickly fix the high-pressure gas tank, and after the shooting is completed, the high-pressure gas tank can be quickly disassembled to release the high pressure inside the waterproof cover. When the high-pressure gas tank is connected, it can create high pressure inside the waterproof structure to prevent water vapor from entering. On the other hand, the high pressure can drive the elastic cover to deform, allowing the elastic cover to expand between the inner and outer sealing rings for further sealing.
[0018] 4. The present invention controls the deformation of the elastic cover by using a deformation guide structure on the waterproof cover. When the elastic cover expands, the deformation guide structure can perform bidirectional control, so that the elastic cover covers the connection between the inner sealing ring and the outer sealing ring, and covers the connection between the waterproof cover and the waterproof cover, thereby achieving a further sealing and waterproofing effect, preventing fogging inside the shooting equipment, and improving image quality.

[0031] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments. It should be understood that the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 11This invention provides a technical solution: an underwater shooting device with anti-shake and defogging capabilities, comprising an external waterproof structure consisting of a waterproof cover 1 and a waterproof cap 2, through which a camera is mounted. The waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2 are connected by a hinge 3 and are fixed together by a locking member 4. Both the waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2 are provided with an inner cover 5, and the inner cover 5 is provided with an inner sealing ring 6. The waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2 are provided with an outer sealing ring 7. The inner cover 5 located in the waterproof cover 1 is provided with a shock-absorbing seat 8 and an energy-absorbing anti-shake structure. The waterproof cover 1 is provided with a handle 11 on one side and an air inlet 12 and a detachable mounting structure on the other side. The high-pressure gas tank 19 is installed through the mounting structure. The mounting structure is provided with a handle 18 for disassembly and assembly control, and the high-pressure gas tank 19 is provided with a press valve 20. An elastic cover 23 is provided between the waterproof cover 1 and the inner cover 5, and a deformation guide structure with bidirectional control function is provided between the waterproof cap 2 and the inner cover 5. The deformation of the elastic cover 23 is controlled through the deformation guide structure.
[0033] The hinge 3 is connected to the top of the waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2, and the locking member 4 is connected to the bottom of the waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2. The locking member 4 is provided with a sealing structure.
[0034] The underwater filming device of the present invention mainly consists of an external waterproof structure and a camera inside. The external waterproof structure can support and protect the camera. It consists of two parts: a waterproof cover 1 and a waterproof cap 2. The waterproof cap 2 can be rotated open or closed and is fixed by a locking member 4 to protect the camera inside.
[0035] The inner cover 5 is set on the inner wall of the waterproof cover 1, and an isolation cavity is provided between the inner cover 5 and the waterproof cover 1. The two sides of the elastic cover 23 are respectively connected to the inner cover 5 and the waterproof cover 1 to seal the isolation cavity, and the inner sealing ring 6 and the outer sealing ring 7 are made of rubber rings.
[0036] The waterproof cover 1 and waterproof cap 2 are designed as a double-layer structure. The inner layer is the inner cover 5, which can be sealed and waterproofed by the inner sealing ring 6 and the outer sealing ring 7. An elastic cover 23 is also provided between the inner and outer layers. The deformable elastic cover 23 forms a waterproof seal structure between the two layers, which effectively prevents water from entering the inner cover 5, prevents water mist from appearing on the light-sensing path of the camera, and improves the image forming effect.
[0037] The shock absorber 8 is located at the bottom of the inner cover 5, and the energy absorption and anti-shake structure includes a shock absorber spring 9 and a pad 10. The shock absorber spring 9 is connected between the inner wall of the waterproof cover 1 and the outer wall of the inner cover 5, and the pad 10 is located on the inner wall of the inner cover 5. The camera is mounted on the shock absorber 8.
[0038] The camera is mounted on the inner cover 5 via the shock absorber mount 8, and the shock absorber spring 9 and pad 10 in the energy absorption and anti-shake structure absorb and filter out minor vibrations to prevent water waves, turbulence and the instability of the photographer from affecting the shooting effect.
[0039] The handle 11 and the air inlet 12 are both installed on the side wall of the waterproof cover 1, and the air inlet 12 is set through the waterproof cover 1 and is connected to the isolation cavity.
[0040] During shooting, the photographer uses the handle and grip to pick up the shooting equipment. The waterproof cover 1 is also equipped with an air inlet 12 and an installation structure, which can be connected to the high-pressure air tank 19. The air pressure generated by the high-pressure air tank 19 can improve the waterproof effect of the waterproof structure.
[0041] The mounting structure includes a mounting base 13 disposed on the waterproof cover 1, and a slot 14 disposed on the mounting base 13. A positioning rod 15 is slidably mounted on the mounting base 13, and a limit spring 16 and a push rod 17 are fixedly connected to the positioning rod 15. A handle 18 is fixedly connected to the push rod 17.
[0042] The mounting structure can quickly fix the high-pressure gas tank 19, and after the shooting is completed, the high-pressure gas tank 19 can be quickly removed to release the high pressure inside the waterproof cover 1.
[0043] The slot 14 is located on the side of the mounting base 13, and the positioning rod 15 is vertically installed through the top surface of the mounting base 13. The limiting spring 16 is connected between the positioning rod 15 and the mounting base 13. The top rod 17 is connected to the top of the positioning rod 15, and the handle 18 is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0044] The pressure valve 20 is located at the end of the high-pressure gas tank 19, and the high-pressure gas tank 19 is provided with a plug 21 connected to the slot 14. The plug 21 is provided with a positioning hole 22, and the positioning rod 15 is connected in the positioning hole 22.
[0045] During installation, the end of the high-pressure gas tank 19 equipped with the press valve 20 is connected to the air inlet 12. The press valve 20 opens after being squeezed by the air inlet 12, allowing the high-pressure gas tank 19 to communicate with the isolation chamber. The insert block 21 on the high-pressure gas tank 19 is inserted into the slot 14, and the positioning rod 15 is inserted into the positioning hole 22 by the elastic force of the limit spring 16. The insert block 21 is fixed by the positioning rod 15, thus completing the fixation of the high-pressure gas tank 19. During the use of the shooting equipment, the photographer holds it with the handle 18. The pressure generated by the handle 18 ensures the stability of the connection of the positioning rod 15. When disassembling, the positioning rod 15 is lifted by the handle 18 and the top rod 17, so that the high-pressure gas tank 19 can be pulled out.
[0046] The deformation guide structure includes a guide seat 24 disposed in the waterproof cover 2, a slide seat 26 disposed on the guide seat 24, and a top pressure spring 25 fixedly connected to the slide seat 26. A push plate 28 is slidably installed on the waterproof cover 2 and the inner cover 5 therein through a guide groove 27, and a rotating plate 30 is rotatably installed in the waterproof cover 2 through a rotating shaft 29.
[0047] When the high-pressure gas tank 19 is connected, it can generate high pressure inside the waterproof structure to prevent water vapor from entering. On the other hand, it can also cause the elastic cover 23 to deform through high pressure, so that the elastic cover 23 expands between the inner and outer sealing rings for further sealing.
[0048] The slide 26 is horizontally positioned, and the push plate 28 is positioned on both sides of the slide 26. The two ends of the rotating plate 30 are located on the sides of the slide 26 and the push plate 28, respectively.
[0049] When the elastic cover 23 expands, it extends from the waterproof cover 1 to between the inner and outer layers of the waterproof cover 2. The middle part of the elastic cover 23 is deformed by the restriction of the slide 26, protruding to both sides of the slide 26. The elastic cover 23 can also squeeze the slide 26, causing the slide 26 to move against the elastic force of the top pressure spring 25. The slide 26 then drives the rotating plate 30 to rotate. The rotating plate 30 plays a steering role, pushing the push plate 28 outward. The push plate 28 further squeezes the elastic cover 23 protruding to both sides, controlling the deformation of the elastic cover 23. This allows the elastic cover 23 to cover the connection between the inner sealing ring 6 and the outer sealing ring 7, and the connection between the waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cover 2, achieving a further sealing and waterproofing effect, preventing fogging inside the shooting equipment, and improving image quality.
[0050] In use, the underwater filming device of this invention primarily consists of an external waterproof structure and a camera within it. The external waterproof structure, which supports and protects the camera, comprises a waterproof cover 1 and a waterproof cap 2. The waterproof cap 2 can be rotated open and closed and is secured by a locking element 4, protecting the camera within. The waterproof cover 1 and waterproof cap 2 are configured as a double-layer structure, with an inner cover 5. A double-layer waterproof seal is achieved through an inner sealing ring 6 and an outer sealing ring 7. Furthermore, an elastic cover 23 is provided between the inner and outer layers. This deformable elastic cover 23 further forms a waterproof seal between the two layers, effectively preventing water from entering the inner cover 5 and preventing water mist from appearing on the camera's photosensitive path, thus improving image quality. The camera is mounted on the inner cover 5 via a shock-absorbing mount 8. The shock-absorbing spring 9 and padding layer 10 in the energy-absorbing and anti-shake structure absorb and filter minor vibrations, preventing water waves, turbulence, and the photographer's own instability from affecting the shooting effect. The photographer can handle the camera during shooting. The waterproof cover 1 also has an air inlet 12 and a mounting structure for connecting a high-pressure gas tank 19. The air pressure generated by the high-pressure gas tank 19 enhances the waterproof effect of the waterproof structure. The mounting structure allows for quick fixation of the high-pressure gas tank 19, and after shooting, the high-pressure gas tank 19 can be quickly removed to release the high pressure inside the waterproof cover 1. During installation, the high-pressure gas tank 19... One end of the pressure valve 20 is connected to the air inlet 12. The pressure valve 20 opens when squeezed by the air inlet 12, allowing the high-pressure gas tank 19 to connect with the isolation chamber. The insert 21 on the high-pressure gas tank 19 is inserted into the slot 14, and the positioning rod 15 is inserted into the positioning hole 22 by the elastic force of the limit spring 16. The positioning rod 15 fixes the insert 21, thus completing the fixation of the high-pressure gas tank 19. During use, the photographer holds the device using the handle 18, which generates pressure to ensure the stability of the positioning rod 15 connection. For disassembly, the positioning rod 15 is lifted using the handle 18 and the push rod 17, allowing the high-pressure gas tank 19 to be pulled out. When the high-pressure gas tank 19 is connected, it can... High pressure is created inside the waterproof structure to prevent moisture from entering. On the other hand, this high pressure also causes the elastic cover 23 to deform, expanding it between the inner and outer sealing rings for further sealing. When the elastic cover 23 expands, it extends from the waterproof cover 1 to between the inner and outer layers of the waterproof cover 2. The middle part of the elastic cover 23 is deformed by the slide 26, protruding towards both sides of the slide 26. The elastic cover 23 also compresses the slide 26, causing it to move against the force of the top spring 25. The slide 26 then drives the rotating plate 30 to rotate, which in turn rotates the push plate 28 outwards. The push plate 28 further compresses the elastic cover 23 protruding to both sides, controlling its deformation.This allows the elastic cover 23 to concentrate its coverage at the connection between the inner sealing ring 6 and the outer sealing ring 7, and at the connection between the waterproof cover 1 and the waterproof cap 2, thus further sealing and waterproofing the equipment, preventing fogging inside the imaging device, and improving image quality.
[0051] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above concepts without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
