Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0025] The utility model is implemented as follows Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, a separated controlled motion camera comprises a base 1, the upper surface of the base 1 is respectively provided with a magnetic suction member 2 and a first pressure sensor 3, and the base 1 is magnetically fixed with a camera body 4 through the magnetic suction member 2; a first through hole 101 penetrating the left and right surfaces of the base 1 is provided inside the base 1, and two connecting plates 6 driven by a first driving mechanism 5 and moving synchronously in a relatively close or relatively far direction are provided in the first through hole 101, and the relatively far ends of the two connecting plates 6 are both located outside the base 1 and relatively located on the left and right sides of the base 1; a through hole penetrating the upper surface of the corresponding connecting plate 6 is provided inside the two connecting plates 6 The first groove 601, the two first grooves 601 are each provided with a clamping plate 8 driven to rise and fall by the second driving mechanism 7; the middle part of the surface of the one side opposite to the two clamping plates 8 corresponds to a resilient clamping block 81 for clamping the camera body 4; the upper part of the surface of the one side opposite to the two clamping plates 8 corresponds to a positioning plate 9 for pressing the camera body 4, and the lower surface of the two positioning plates 9 is provided with a second pressure sensor 10; the base 1 is also provided with a controller 11 and a control switch 12, and the first pressure sensor 3, the first driving mechanism 5, the second driving mechanism 7, the second pressure sensor 10 and the control switch 12 are electrically connected to the controller 11 respectively.

[0026] In this embodiment, the base 1 is rectangular in shape, and the length and width of the base 1 are larger than those of the camera body 4, so as to facilitate supporting the camera body 4. Specifically, the upper surface of the base 1 is provided with a second groove 102 that runs through the left and right surfaces of the base 1. The second groove 102 is horizontally arranged along the length direction of the base 1. The width of the second groove 102 matches the width of the bottom of the camera body 4, so that the bottom of the camera body 4 can be adapted to and inserted into the second groove 102, so as to play a role in preliminarily fixing the camera body 4. The first pressure sensor 3 is arranged in the middle of the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102; two magnetic suction members 2 are arranged, and the two magnetic suction members 2 are arranged on the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the first pressure sensor 3. Among them, the first through hole 101 is a rectangular hole, and its internal space is used to accommodate the first driving mechanism 5 and the horizontal part of the connecting plate 6 connected to the first driving mechanism 5.

[0027] Furthermore, the middle part of the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 has a first depression, and the first pressure sensor 3 is arranged in the first depression. The first pressure sensor 3 partially protrudes from the first depression so as to contact the camera body 4 to realize pressure sensing. The inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 has a second depression on the left and right sides of the first depression, and two magnetic suction members 2 are correspondingly arranged in the two second depressions, and the top surfaces of the two magnetic suction members 2 and the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 are located in the same horizontal plane. Correspondingly, the bottom of the camera body 4 is provided with a metal sheet 401 that is magnetically adsorbed and matched with the magnetic suction member 2, and the position and number of the metal sheet 401 correspond to the magnetic suction member 2 one by one. When the bottom of the camera body 4 is inserted into the second groove 102, it is convenient to magnetically position the camera body 4 through the magnetic adsorption and cooperation between the magnetic suction member 2 and the metal sheet 401. In this embodiment, the magnetic suction member 2 is a magnet block.

[0028] Among them, a vertical spring 1022 is also provided on the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 at the position of the first depression, and the bottom circle of the spring 1022 covers the outer periphery of the first depression so that the first depression is located therein, and a first telescopic rubber tube 1023 is also sleeved on the spring 1022 to cover the spring 1022 inside, and the bottom of the first telescopic rubber tube 1023 is correspondingly sealed on the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102. The spring 1022 plays a supporting role for the first telescopic rubber tube 1023, so that the first telescopic rubber tube 1023 does not affect the pressure sensing of the first pressure sensor 3, and can also be effectively waterproofed through the first telescopic rubber tube 1023, so as to play a good waterproof role for the first pressure sensor 3. In this embodiment, the method of sealing the first telescopic rubber tube 1023 on the inner bottom surface of the second groove 102 is, for example, to use waterproof glue coating and curing, which can not only achieve the sealing of the first telescopic rubber tube 1023, but also form a waterproof glue layer.

[0029] In this embodiment, the lower surfaces of the two positioning plates 9 also have a third depression, and the two second pressure sensors 10 are arranged in the corresponding third depressions, and the two second pressure sensors 10 partially protrude from the corresponding third depressions so as to contact the camera body 4 to achieve pressure sensing. In order to achieve a better waterproof effect for the second pressure sensor 10, the waterproof structure using the spring 1022 and the first telescopic rubber tube 1023 can also be arranged at the third depression (such as the upper and lower swap at the sealing position), which will not be repeated here.

[0030] Furthermore, elastic gaskets 91 are provided on the lower surfaces of the two positioning plates 9 on one side of the corresponding third recess. For example, the elastic gasket 91 on the left positioning plate 9 is located on the left side of the third recess thereon, and the elastic gasket 91 on the right positioning plate 9 is located on the right side of the third recess thereon; for another example, the elastic gasket 91 on the left positioning plate 9 is located on the right side of the third recess thereon, and the elastic gasket 91 on the right positioning plate 9 is located on the left side of the third recess thereon. The role of the elastic gasket 91 is to further press and consolidate the camera body 4, and to provide contact protection for the camera body 4 to prevent the camera body 4 from being worn. In this embodiment, the thickness of the elastic gasket 91 is based on the fact that after the elastic gasket 91 is relatively squeezed and deformed into place by the positioning plate 9 and the camera body 4, the camera body 4 can achieve pressure sensing with the second pressure sensor 10.

[0031] In this embodiment, the first driving mechanism 5 is arranged in the first through hole 101. The first driving mechanism 5 includes a first slide rail 51 arranged in the first through hole 101, two first sliders 52 slidably arranged on the first slide rail 51, and first motors (not shown in the drawings) respectively connected to the two first sliders 52; the first slide rail 51 is horizontally arranged on the inner bottom surface of the first through hole 101 along the length direction of the first through hole 101; one end of the two connecting plates 6 located in the first through hole 101 is correspondingly arranged on the two first sliders 52; the two first motors (not shown in the drawings) are both electrically connected to the controller 11. The first motor (not shown in the drawings) is a servo motor. It is realized that the two first sliders 52 are driven to move synchronously in a relatively close or relatively far direction at the same time. The two connecting plates 6 move synchronously in a relatively close direction to clamp the camera body 4; the two connecting plates 6 move synchronously in a relatively far direction to cancel the clamping of the camera body 4. The shape of the connecting plate 6 is L-shaped.

[0032] In this embodiment, the controller 11 is arranged inside the base 1. In order to achieve a better waterproof effect on the first driving mechanism 5 and the controller 11 inside the base 1, a second telescopic rubber tube 13 is respectively sleeved on the two connecting plates 6, so that one end of the two second telescopic rubber tubes 13 is correspondingly sealed at the opening positions on the left and right surfaces of the base 1, and then the other ends of the two second telescopic rubber tubes 13 are horizontally extended to any suitable position away from the base 1 and sealed and connected to the corresponding connecting plate 6, so that the openings on the left and right sides of the base 1 and part of the horizontal section on the corresponding connecting plate 6 are surrounded by the second telescopic rubber tube 13, which achieves a better waterproof effect and does not affect the movement of the connecting plate 6. Its sealing method is the same as the aforementioned glue sealing, which will not be repeated here.

[0033] In this embodiment, the second driving mechanism 7 is arranged in the first groove 601. Both the second driving mechanisms 7 include a second slide rail 71 arranged in the first groove 601, a second slider 72 slidably arranged on the second slide rail 71, and a second motor (not shown in the drawings) drivingly connected to the second slider 72; the second slide rail 71 is vertically arranged on the inner side surface of the first groove 601 along the length direction of the first groove 601; one end of the clamping plate 8 located in the first groove 601 is arranged on the second slider 72; the second motor (not shown in the drawings) is electrically connected to the controller 11. The second motor (not shown in the drawings) is also a servo motor. The movements of the two second motors (not shown in the drawings) are synchronized to achieve synchronous driving of the two positioning plates 9 to rise and fall, so as to achieve downward pressing and fixing of the camera body 4.

[0034] In order to achieve a better waterproof effect on the second driving mechanism 7 and the like inside the connecting plate 6, a third telescopic rubber tube 14 is respectively sleeved on the two clamping plates 8, so that one end of the two third telescopic rubber tubes 14 is correspondingly sealed at the slotted position on the top of the connecting plate 6, and then the other ends of the two third telescopic rubber tubes 14 are respectively vertically extended to any suitable position away from the connecting plate 6 (such as at the position below the elastic clamping block 81) and sealed and connected to the corresponding clamping plate 8, so that the notch on the connecting plate 6 and the part of the vertical section on the corresponding clamping plate 8 are surrounded in the third telescopic rubber tube 14, which achieves a better waterproof effect and does not affect the lifting and lowering of the clamping plate 8. Its sealing method is the same as the aforementioned glue sealing, which will not be repeated here.

[0035] It should be noted that the first motor (not shown in the drawings), the first slider 52 and the first slide rail 51 and the second motor (not shown in the drawings), the second slider 72 and the second slide rail 71 are all sliding (lifting) drive mechanisms commonly used in the prior art, among which the driving connection methods of the first motor (not shown in the drawings) and the first slider 52 and the second motor (not shown in the drawings) and the second slider 72 can refer to the prior art to achieve driving sliding (lifting), and this embodiment is not specifically limited or described.

[0036] In this embodiment, each clamping plate 8 and the positioning plate 9 connected thereto are an integrally formed structure, and the positioning plate 9 is relatively perpendicular to the clamping plate 8, so that the positioning plate 9 and the clamping plate 8 are connected to form an L-shaped structure, and the pressing effect is stable. In addition, each clamping plate 8 and the positioning plate 9 connected thereto are provided with rubber edges rolled inward at the front and rear edges thereof to protect the side of the camera body 4.

[0037] Furthermore, an internal thread hole 103 is provided in the middle of the lower surface of the base 1, and the base 1 is threadedly connected to a hand-held rod 15 through the internal thread hole 103. The hand-held rod 15 is easy to hold, and the base 1 and the hand-held rod 15 are detachably connected through the internal thread hole 103, so as to facilitate the user to carry and use. Therefore, in other embodiments, the base 1 can also be connected to other supporting accessories, such as a helmet, a wristband, etc., through the internal thread hole 103.

[0038] The separate control motion camera of the embodiment of the utility model, after the first pressure sensor 3 senses that the camera body 4 is placed in place, the controller 11 controls the first driving mechanism 5 and the second driving mechanism 7 to operate to drive the clamping plate 8 and the positioning plate 9 to relatively close to achieve the fixation of the camera body 4, which is easy to install. The second pressure sensor 10 is used to confirm whether the positioning plate 9 is lowered to the position, and stops closing after it is lowered to the position. In order to facilitate the separation of the camera body 4 and the base 1, a control switch 12 is set on the base 1. In this embodiment, the controller 11 is set outside the base 1 for easy operation. The control switch 12 is used to control the first driving mechanism 5 and the second driving mechanism 7 to operate to drive the clamping plate 8 and the positioning plate 9 to open relatively to release the fixation of the camera body 4, and then release the magnetic adsorption between the camera body 4 and the base 1. Correspondingly, the base 1 should also be provided with a waterproof rubber sleeve (not shown in the drawings) sleeved on the control switch 12, and the installation method of the waterproof rubber sleeve (not shown in the drawings) is also relatively existing, and it can be referred to the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

[0039] It should be noted that the controller 11 in this embodiment can be set at any suitable position in the base 1, and the control switch 12 can be set at any suitable position outside the base 1. The first pressure sensor 3, the second pressure sensor 10, the controller 11 and the control switch 12 are all relatively existing, and the electrical connection method in this embodiment is, for example, wire connection, and this technology is also relatively existing. The drawings shown in this embodiment are only examples and should be subject to actual application.
