If the camera cannot quickly discharge static electricity after being interfered with by static electricity, error frames will appear in the signal transmission; when the video deserialization chip has no frame loss and error frame processing functions, obvious jamming and information loss will occur, which will have an adverse effect on the normal transmission of the camera signal, resulting in signal loss, and screen flickering, screen flower and other phenomena, thus affecting the driving safety of intelligent driving.

[0033] Various exemplary embodiments of the present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application.

[0034] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present application, its application, or uses.

[0035] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0036] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0037] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0038] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present application, a camera harness assembly 1 is provided. The camera harness assembly 1 comprises a plug connector 11, a coaxial harness 12 and a ground wire 13, wherein the plug connector 11 is provided with a plug port 110; a part of the coaxial harness 12 is plugged into the plug port 110; one end of the ground wire 13 is in contact with the plug connector 11, and the other end of the ground wire 13 is configured to overlap with the body of the vehicle to which the camera harness assembly is applied.

[0039] In the camera harness assembly 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the coaxial harness 12 is plugged into the plug interface 110 of the plug connector 11, which not only plays a role in signal transmission, but also the far end of the coaxial harness 12 away from the plug connector 11 is grounded, which plays a role in static discharge. Furthermore, a ground wire 13 is provided in the camera harness assembly 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, one end of the ground wire 13 is in contact with the plug connector 11, and the other end of the ground wire 13 is overlapped with the body of the vehicle to which the camera harness assembly is applied, so as to realize rapid static discharge, thereby effectively improving the anti-static interference capability of the vehicle-mounted camera, and solving the problem of abnormal images when the vehicle-mounted camera receives signals in a complex electromagnetic environment.

[0040] In one embodiment, the length of the grounding wire 13 is less than or equal to 2 meters.

[0041] In this specific example, the length of the grounding wire 13 does not exceed 2 meters, thereby ensuring an effective electrostatic discharge effect; since the grounding wire 13 itself has resistance, when the length of the grounding wire 13 is greater than 2 meters, the static discharge effect will deteriorate.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the connector 11 includes an outer sheath 111 and a conductive shell 112 , one end of the conductive shell 112 is connected to the outer sheath 111 , and the plug port 110 is opened at the other end of the conductive shell 112 .

[0043] In this specific example, the connector 11 is composed of an outer sheath 111 and a conductive shell 112, wherein the outer sheath 111 provides protection and support, and the conductive shell 112 is made of metal, such as copper; the connector 11 can be Figure 2 The female plug shown can also be Figure 4 In addition, the connector 11 can be a Fakra or Mini-Fakra coaxial connector type, or a connector type such as an in-vehicle Ethernet.

[0044] In one embodiment, one end of the grounding wire 13 is in contact with the outer wall of the conductive housing 112 .

[0045] In this specific example, one end of the ground wire 13 is in contact with the outer wall of the conductive housing 112 in the connector 11 .

[0046] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the coaxial harness 12 includes an inner core 121 and a shielding layer 120, the shielding layer 120 is wrapped around the outside of the inner core 121, and a portion of the inner core 121 is exposed from the shielding layer 120; the inner core 121 exposed from the shielding layer 120 is plugged into the plug port 110.

[0047] In this specific example, the coaxial cable harness 12 includes an inner core 121 and a shielding layer 120; the shielding layer 120 is wrapped around the outer portion of the inner core 121 to reduce electromagnetic interference; optionally, the shielding layer 120 may be a braided layer, for example. A portion of the inner core 121 is exposed from the shielding layer 120 and plugged into the plug port 110 to achieve signal transmission.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the shielding layer 120 wraps around and is connected to the outer wall of the conductive shell 112 .

[0049] In this specific example, the shielding layer 120 wraps around and is connected to the outer wall of the conductive shell 112 , thereby further enhancing the electromagnetic shielding effect.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the camera harness assembly further includes a sleeve 14, a portion of the sleeve 14 is sleeved on the outside of the conductive housing 112, and another portion of the sleeve 14 is sleeved on the outside of the coaxial harness 12;

[0051] One end of the grounding wire 13 is located between the conductive housing 112 and the sleeve 14 .

[0052] In this specific example, in order to provide better protection, support and stable connection, the camera harness assembly also includes a sleeve 14; a portion of the sleeve 14 is sleeved on the outside of the conductive housing 112, and another portion is sleeved on the outside of the coaxial harness 12, and one end of the ground wire 13 is located between the conductive housing 112 and the sleeve 14; the sleeve 14 can provide effective protection for the ground wire 13, and can firmly and reliably fix the connector 11, the coaxial harness 12 and the ground wire 13. Optionally, the material of the sleeve 14 can be copper, for example.

[0053] In addition, the ground wire 13 and the conductive shell 112 can be connected by means of clamping, welding, etc.; and the sleeve 14 is used for crimping, so that the assembly operation is simple and easy to implement, and the cost is low.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the side wall of the sleeve 14 is in a corrugated structure extending axially.

[0055] In this specific example, the side wall of the sleeve 14 is a corrugated structure extending in the axial direction; specifically, the sleeve 14 includes a convex portion 141 with a larger diameter and a concave portion 142 with a smaller diameter, and the convex portion 141 and the concave portion 142 are staggered in the axial direction. Such a structure enables the sleeve 14 to provide a greater crimping force, so that the sleeve 14 can more effectively press the conductive housing 112, the grounding wire 13 and the coaxial harness 12.

[0057] In this specific example, the insulating layer 130 may be a plastic outer shell, which mainly plays an insulating role to prevent short circuits; and the conductive core 131 is in contact with the conductive shell 112, thereby playing a role in static discharge.

[0058] According to another embodiment of the present application, a vehicle-mounted camera is provided, which includes the camera harness assembly 1 as described above, and also includes a camera body, and the camera body is connected to the connector 11 of the camera harness assembly 1.

[0059] The vehicle-mounted camera provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the above-mentioned camera harness assembly 1, wherein the ground wire 13 is connected to other ground wires or grounded nearby; the whole forms the closest structure for connecting the vehicle-mounted camera to the vehicle body ground, thereby realizing the rapid discharge of static electricity. At the same time, because the vehicle-mounted camera has a multi-point grounding structure, the energy coupled to other harnesses on the same line can also be quickly released, thereby realizing the improvement of the overall anti-interference ability of the vehicle-mounted camera signal.

[0060] According to another embodiment of the present application, a vehicle is provided, the vehicle comprising the vehicle-mounted camera as described above, wherein the end of the grounding wire 13 away from the connector 11 can be grounded at a point on the vehicle body according to the principle of installation space and proximity to the vehicle body.

As long as the different optimization features between the various embodiments are not contradictory, they can be combined to form a better embodiment. Considering the simplicity of the text, they will not be repeated here.
