Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of monitoring equipment manufacturing, and more specifically to a monitoring system. Background Technology
[0002] A surveillance camera is a general term for any device that uses video and audio signals to record and store them. With the increasing prevalence of closed-circuit surveillance in civilian and commercial applications, surveillance cameras are widely used in various fields. Surveillance cameras are widely used in forests, residential areas, shopping malls, and shops. Each different application area requires a different type of surveillance camera.
[0003] However, traditional monitoring devices mostly use a closed casing. When the device is working, the internal electronic components generate heat, causing the internal temperature of the casing to be too high. Because the casing is closed, the heat cannot dissipate in time, and the longer it is used, the more likely it is to damage the internal electronic components, reducing the product's lifespan. Furthermore, prolonged use will cause a large amount of dust to accumulate on the lens, affecting the quality of the monitored images. Therefore, a monitoring system is designed to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention provides a monitoring system that allows for the alternating use of two cameras while simultaneously cooling and cleaning the idle cameras.
[0005] The above objectives are achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A monitoring system is characterized in that it includes two mounting plates, each mounting plate is rotatably connected to a rotating plate, and the inner side of each rotating plate is rotatably connected to six gears I; the inner side of each mounting plate is fixedly connected to a gear box I, and the inner side of each gear box I is fixedly connected to a gear ring, each gear ring meshing with the corresponding six gears I.
[0007] Sleeve I is fixedly connected to the inner side of each of the two rotating plates. Lens tubes are threaded into the two sleeves I, and lenses are fixedly connected inside the two lens tubes.
[0008] Each gear I is fixedly connected to an inner cover, and each inner cover is fixedly connected to an outer cover; a protective plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the mounting plate.
[0009] The inner sides of the two lens barrels are each fixedly connected to a base, and a hexagonal prism is fixedly connected between the two bases. Six connecting rods I are fixedly connected to the hexagonal prism. A sleeve II is fixedly connected between the two mounting plates. The sleeve II is provided with six sliding grooves, and the six connecting rods I are slidably connected in the corresponding sliding grooves.
[0010] Each sleeve I is provided with a vent hole I, and the front and rear sides of the sleeve II are respectively provided with vent holes II, and the corresponding vent holes I and vent holes II can communicate with each other.
[0011] A screw cylinder is fixed to each of the six connecting rods I. The screw cylinder can block the corresponding vent hole I and vent hole II by moving back and forth.
[0012] The front and rear sides of the screw cylinder are provided with threads in opposite directions; gears II are threadedly connected to the front and rear sides of the screw cylinder respectively.
[0013] A housing is fixed between the two mounting plates, and a gear box II is fixed to the housing. Gear III is rotatably connected inside the gear box II. The two gears II are respectively close to the front and rear sides of the gear box II, and gear III meshes with the two gears II.
[0014] A connecting rod II is fixedly connected to the gear III. The connecting rod II passes through the gear box II, and a mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the connecting rod II.
[0015] Multiple connecting pipes connect the two gears II; an air exchange cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower part of the outer casing.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the monitoring system of the present invention are as follows:
[0017] Compared to traditional monitoring systems, this invention features two sets of lenses, which can be swapped by rotating the outer casing. Simultaneously, the rotation of the outer casing causes relative rotation between gears II and III, which in turn drives the screw cylinder to move back and forth, thereby driving the two lenses to move back and forth simultaneously. At this time, the six inner covers and six outer covers located on the front and rear sides respectively close and open, allowing the front lens to be used while the rear lens is closed.

Detailed Implementation
[0034] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which six gears I 106 are driven to rotate by a rotating plate 102, is shown. Further,
[0035] Two mounting plates 101 are rotatably connected to rotating plates 102, and six gears I 106 are rotatably connected to the inner side of each rotating plate 102; a gear box I 104 is fixedly connected to the inner side of each mounting plate 101, and a gear ring 105 is fixedly connected to the inner side of each gear box I 104, and each gear ring 105 is meshed with the corresponding six gears I 106.
[0036] Mounting plate 101 provides a mounting position for rotating plate 102; rotating plate 102 provides a mounting position for six gears I 106; rotating plate 102 can drive six gears I 106 to rotate around the axis of rotating plate 102, thereby causing six gears I 106 to rotate relative to the fixed gear ring 105, thus driving each gear I 106 to rotate around its own axis; gear box I 104 can protect the inner gear ring 105 and the six gears I 106.
[0037] See Figure 1-15 This shows a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which the sleeve I 103 is driven to rotate by the back-and-forth movement of the lens barrel 202. Further,
[0038] Both rotating plates 102 have sleeves I 103 fixedly connected to their inner sides. Lens tubes 202 are connected to the inner threads of both sleeves I 103. Lenses 201 are fixedly connected to both lens tubes 202.
[0039] Sleeve I 103 provides an installation position for lens barrel 202 and restricts lens barrel 202 to move only in the front-back direction. When lens barrel 202 moves in the front-back direction, it can drive sleeve I 103 to rotate through threaded connection, thereby driving the corresponding rotating plate 102 to rotate. Rotation of rotating plate 102 drives gear I 106 to rotate.
[0040] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which the lens 201 is covered by the inner cover 107 and the outer cover 108 is shown. Further,
[0041] An inner cover 107 is fixedly connected to each gear I 106, and an outer cover 108 is fixedly connected to each inner cover 107; a protective plate 109 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the mounting plate 101.
[0042] The simultaneous rotation of the six corresponding gears I 106 drives the simultaneous rotation of the six corresponding inner covers 107, which in turn drives the simultaneous rotation of the corresponding outer covers 108. When the lens barrel 202 moves inward, it drives the sleeve I 103 and the rotating plate 102 to rotate, thereby driving the six inner covers 107 and the six outer covers 108 to rotate inward simultaneously, thus covering the lens 201. When the lens barrel 202 moves outward, it drives the sleeve I 103 and the rotating plate 102 to rotate, thereby driving the six inner covers 107 and the six outer covers 108 to rotate outward simultaneously, thus exposing the lens 201.
[0043] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which two lens barrels 202 are connected by a hexagonal prism 204, is shown. Further,
[0044] A base 203 is fixedly connected to the inner side of each of the two lens barrels 202. A hexagonal prism 204 is fixedly connected between the two bases 203. Six connecting rods I 205 are fixedly connected to the hexagonal prism 204. A sleeve II 206 is fixedly connected between the two mounting plates 101. The sleeve II 206 is provided with six sliding grooves. The six connecting rods I 205 are slidably connected in the corresponding sliding grooves.
[0045] The base 203 protects the lens barrel 202 and provides a mounting position for the hexagonal prism 204. The hexagonal prism 204 connects the two lens barrels 202, ensuring that one lens barrel 202 moves outward while the other moves inward. The six connecting rods I 205 are slidably connected in the corresponding grooves, restricting the two lens barrels 202 to move only in the front-back direction and preventing them from rotating during movement.
[0046] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which two lens barrels 202 are moved by a screw barrel 207, is shown. Further,
[0047] Each sleeve I 103 is provided with a vent hole I, and the front and rear sides of the sleeve II 206 are respectively provided with vent holes II, and the corresponding vent holes I and vent holes II can communicate with each other; at the same time, six connecting rods I 205 are fixedly connected with screw cylinders 207, and when the screw cylinders 207 move back and forth, they can block the corresponding vent holes I and vent holes II.
[0048] When the screw barrel 207 moves back and forth, it can drive the connecting rod I 205 and the hexagonal prism 204 to move back and forth, thereby driving the two lens barrels 202 to move to the inner and outer sides respectively; the vent I and vent II are used to dissipate heat and remove dust from the lens 201.
[0049] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which the screw barrel 207 is driven to move by two gears II 301 is shown. Further,
[0050] The front and rear sides of the screw barrel 207 are provided with threads in opposite directions; gears II 301 are threadedly connected to the front and rear sides of the screw barrel 207 respectively; at the same time, a housing 110 is fixed between the two mounting plates 101, and a gear box II 306 is fixedly connected to the housing 110. Gear III 303 is rotatably connected inside the gear box II 306. The two gears II 301 are respectively tightly attached to the front and rear sides of the gear box II 306, and gear III 303 meshes with the two gears II 301.
[0051] The two gears II 301 rotate clockwise and counterclockwise respectively, and the screw barrel 207 has threads in opposite directions on its front and rear sides, so that the rotation of the two gears II 301 can drive the screw barrel 207 to move in the back and forth direction; the outer shell 110 can protect the internal parts and provide a mounting position for the gear box II 306; the gear box II 306 can provide a mounting position for the gear III 303. When the gear III 303 rotates, it can drive the two gears II 301 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby driving the screw barrel 207 to move in the back and forth direction.
[0052] See Figure 1-15 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which gear III 303 is connected by connecting rod II 304, is shown. Further,
[0053] A connecting rod II 304 is fixedly connected to gear III 303. The connecting rod II 304 passes through gear box II 306. A mounting bracket 305 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod II 304.
[0054] When the housing 110 rotates around the connecting rod II 304, it enables the two gears II 301 and gear III 303 to rotate relative to each other; at the same time, the rotation of the housing 110 can exchange the front and rear lenses 201 without affecting the normal use of the lens 201 located on the front side; the mounting bracket 305 is used to fix the present invention in the installation position.
[0055] See Figure 1-15 This shows a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which heat is dissipated from the interior of the outer casing 110 via the ventilation duct 401. Further,
[0056] The outer casing 110 is provided with a vent Ⅲ, and an air exchange cylinder 401 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner casing 110.
[0057] The ventilation duct 401 allows air to circulate inside the housing 110, thereby enhancing heat dissipation; the ventilation holes I, II and III located at the rear can remain connected, thereby cooling and removing dust from the lens 201 at the rear through air flow.
