[0034] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the anti-rotation mechanism provided in an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of an anti-rotation body and an anti-rotation member in an anti-rotation mechanism provided in an embodiment of the utility model.

[0035] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the utility model provides an anti-rotation mechanism 100 , which includes an anti-rotation body 110 and an anti-rotation member 120 .

[0036] The anti-rotation body 110 can be made of cast iron, cast steel, stainless steel and other materials, and has good corrosion resistance and pressure resistance. The anti-rotation body 110 can be installed on the base 200 of the video surveillance device, that is, the anti-rotation body 110 can be fixedly installed on the base 200 of the video surveillance device, or can be detachably connected to the base 200 of the video surveillance device by fasteners such as bolts and screws, as long as the anti-rotation body 110 can be fixed relative to the base 200 of the video surveillance device. A wire winding is provided inside the anti-rotation body 110, and the wire winding (also known as a coil) is a driving component of the anti-rotation body 110, and the wire winding is connected to a power source.

[0037] The anti-rotation member 120 is also made of cast iron, cast steel, stainless steel and other materials. The anti-rotation member 120 is movably arranged on the anti-rotation body 110, that is, a circular guide hole can be opened below the anti-rotation body 110. The anti-rotation member 120 can be a cylindrical structure. The anti-rotation member 120 is slidably matched with the hole wall of the guide hole and extends into the interior of the anti-rotation body 110. A limit stop is set at one end of the anti-rotation member 120 located on the anti-rotation body 110. The limit stop restricts the anti-rotation member 120 to prevent the anti-rotation member 120 from escaping from the guide hole of the anti-rotation body 110. The shape of the guide hole can also be set to other polygons such as a triangle and a quadrilateral. The cross-sectional shape of the anti-rotation member 120 is adapted to the shape of the guide hole, which is determined according to actual usage.

[0038] The wire winding generates a magnetic field by energizing to attract the anti-rotation member 120 to move, thereby controlling the anti-rotation member 120 to be inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, or to be detached from the device body 300 of the video surveillance device. Specifically, when the wire winding loses power, the anti-rotation member 120 is inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device to limit the relative rotation between the device body 300 and the base 200; when the wire winding is energized, the anti-rotation member 120 is away from the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, and the device body 300 and the base 200 can rotate relative to each other.

[0039] It can be understood that the anti-rotation mechanism 100 provided in the embodiment of the utility model is provided with an anti-rotation body 110 and an anti-rotation part 120, and the anti-rotation part 120 is movably connected with the anti-rotation body 110, and the anti-rotation body 110 can be installed on the base 200 of the video surveillance device, and the anti-rotation part 120 can be inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device. A wire winding is provided inside the anti-rotation body 110, and when the wire winding is powered off, the anti-rotation part 120 is inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device to limit the relative rotation between the device body 300 and the base 200; when the wire winding is powered on, the anti-rotation part 120 is away from the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, and the device body 300 and the base 200 can rotate relative to each other. With this arrangement, the user can control the power on or off of the wire winding according to actual needs, and then limit or remove the relative position of the base 200 and the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, which is simpler to operate and has higher reliability.

[0040] Continue reading Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present invention, the anti-rotation mechanism 100 further includes at least one guide member 130, which is disposed on the side wall of the anti-rotation member 120; a guide groove 220 for the guide member 130 to slide is provided on the base 200 of the video surveillance device.

[0041] The guide groove 220 is provided on the base 200 of the video surveillance device, the guide groove 220 extends in the height direction of the base 200, and a guide member 130 is provided on the outer side wall of the anti-rotation member 120 to slide with the guide groove 220. When the anti-rotation member 120 moves up and down relative to the anti-rotation body 110, the guide member 130 moves along the guide groove 220 to provide a guide for the movement of the anti-rotation member 120, thereby preventing the anti-rotation member 120 from deflecting or getting stuck, and further improving the reliability of the anti-rotation mechanism 100.

[0042] Among them, at least one guide member 130 is set, and two, three or four guide members 130 can also be set. When more than three guide members 130 are set, the guide members 130 are arranged in a circular array along the axis of the anti-rotation member 120, which has a better guiding effect and higher stability of the anti-rotation mechanism 100.

[0043] Continue reading Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present invention, in order to improve the guiding effect of the anti-rotation member 120 without increasing the production cost of the anti-rotation mechanism 100, two guide members 130 are provided, and the two guide members 130 are symmetrically arranged along the plane where the axis of the anti-rotation member 120 is located.

[0044] Continue reading Figure 1In some embodiments of the present invention, the anti-rotation mechanism 100 further includes an elastic element 140, which is sleeved on the anti-rotation member 120, one end of the elastic element 140 abuts against the anti-rotation body 110, and the other end of the elastic element 140 abuts against the guide member 130. The elastic element 140 may be a spring.

[0045] By arranging an elastic element 140 on the outer surface of the anti-rotation part 120 and making the elastic element 140 located between the anti-rotation body 110 and the guide member 130, when the wire winding loses power, the anti-rotation part 120 is pushed out by the elastic element and inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device to limit the relative rotation between the device body 300 and the base 200, ensuring that the anti-rotation part 120 can more accurately limit the relative rotation between the device body 300 and the base 200, and further improving the reliability and stability of the anti-rotation mechanism 100.

[0046] It should be noted that the design principle of the anti-rotation mechanism 100 provided in the embodiment of the present invention is similar to the design principle of the solenoid valve, and the anti-rotation mechanism 100 provided in the present invention can be understood by referring to the design principle of the solenoid valve.

[0047] During the operation of the anti-rotation mechanism 100 provided by the embodiment of the utility model, a magnetic force is generated at the moment when the wire winding is energized to attract the anti-rotation part 120. The direction of the magnetic force on the anti-rotation part 120 is opposite to the direction of the elastic force of the elastic element 140, and the magnetic force on the anti-rotation part 120 is greater than the elastic force of the elastic element 140, that is, the magnetic force on the anti-rotation part 120 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic element 140, the elastic element 140 is compressed, and the anti-rotation part 120 moves upward until the anti-rotation part 120 is separated from the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, so as to release the position restriction between the base 200 and the device body 300 of the video surveillance device. At this time, the device body 300 of the video surveillance device can rotate relative to the base 200.

[0048] The magnetic force disappears the moment the wire winding loses power, and the anti-rotation part 120 moves downward under the action of gravity and the elastic force of the elastic element 140 until the anti-rotation part 120 is inserted into the device body 300 of the video surveillance device, so as to limit the position between the base 200 and the device body 300 of the video surveillance device. At this time, the device body 300 of the video surveillance device cannot rotate relative to the base 200.

[0049] Figure 3 It is a side view of the video monitoring device provided by an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 4 It is a top view of the video monitoring device provided by an embodiment of the utility model.

[0050] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4The embodiment of the utility model further provides a video monitoring device, which includes a base 200, a device body 300 and the above-mentioned anti-rotation mechanism 100.

[0051] The base 200 is provided with a mounting portion 210, which protrudes from the upper surface of the base 200 and is offset from the center of the base 200, that is, the mounting portion 210 is eccentrically arranged relative to the center of the base 200. The anti-rotation body 110 is arranged on the mounting portion 210.

[0052] A limiting hole 310 is provided on a surface of one side of the device body 300 facing the base 200. The position of the limiting hole 310 corresponds to the position of the mounting portion 210, and the virtual axis of the limiting hole 310 is not colinear with the rotation axis S of the device body 300, that is, the limiting hole 310 is eccentrically arranged relative to the rotation center of the device body 300, to ensure that after the anti-rotation part 120 is inserted into the limiting hole 310, the relative rotation between the base 200 and the device body 300 can be limited, thereby avoiding the situation where the limiting hole 310 is arranged at the rotation center of the device body 300 and the relative rotation between the base 200 and the device body 300 cannot be limited.

[0053] Figure 5 It is a flowchart of the video monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the utility model.

[0054] Continue reading Figure 4 , and also see Figure 5 The video monitoring device also includes a position detection component, which is arranged on the hole wall of the limiting hole 310 and is used to detect the position of the anti-rotation component 120.

[0055] When the video surveillance equipment only has a position detection component, the position detection component can be connected to a structure such as a voice prompt device, the position information of the anti-rotation component 120 is detected by the position detection component, and the voice prompt device is used to prompt that the anti-rotation component 120 is in place, which has higher reliability.

[0056] The position detection component includes any one of a contact position sensor and a proximity position sensor. The position of the anti-rotation member 120 is detected by the position detection component, and converted into an output signal to be fed back to the voice prompt device or the single chip microcomputer 500 described below, thereby performing closed-loop control on the video surveillance device, so that the reliability of the limit between the base 200 and the device body 300 in the video surveillance device is higher.

[0057] When the position sensor is a contact sensor, the contact sensor may include a travel switch, a two-dimensional matrix position sensor, etc. For example, the position detection component is a travel switch, which is arranged on the inner wall of the limit hole 310, and when the anti-rotation member 120 moves downward and collides with the travel switch, the contact inside the travel switch moves, thereby realizing the position detection of the anti-rotation member 120.

[0058] When the position sensor is a proximity sensor, the proximity sensor may include an electromagnetic or photoelectric type, etc. The proximity sensor does not need to contact the anti-rotation part 120. When the anti-rotation part 120 and the proximity sensor are close to a set distance, a switch sends an "action" signal, thereby realizing the position detection of the anti-rotation part 120.

[0059] For example, in the embodiment of the utility model, the position detection component is a photoelectric coupler 400, which has a smaller structure and is easy to install. When the anti-rotation member 120 moves downward to the insertion limit hole 310, the anti-rotation member 120 blocks the optical signal of the photoelectric coupler 400, and the photoelectric coupler 400 sends a switch of an "action" signal to realize the position detection of the anti-rotation member 120.

[0060] Continue reading Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present utility model, the video monitoring device further includes a control component, which is electrically connected to the position detection component and the wire winding, and is used to control the wire winding to be powered on or off according to the position information detected by the position detection component. The control component includes a single-chip microcomputer 500, which is electrically connected to the position detection component and the wire winding, and the control component can also be other components capable of realizing control.

[0061] If the limiting is achieved only by inserting the power-off control anti-rotation part 120 of the guide winding 111 of the anti-rotation mechanism 100 into the limiting hole 310 of the device main body 300, or the limiting is released by pulling the power-on control anti-rotation part 120 of the guide winding 111 of the anti-rotation mechanism 100 out of the limiting hole 310 of the device main body 300, and if the guide winding 111 is forgotten to be energized before starting the machine, the limiting between the base 200 and the device main body 300 of the video surveillance device will not be released. At this time, the motor of the device main body 300 will suffer irreparable damage. In severe cases, the video surveillance device will not work.

[0062] To this end, the embodiment of the utility model is provided with a control component and a position detection component, and the control component is electrically connected to the position detection component and the guide winding 111. When the video monitoring device is powered on, the control component first controls the guide winding 111 to be powered according to the position information of the anti-rotation component 120 detected by the position detection component, so that the anti-rotation component 120 is pulled out of the limit hole 310 of the device body 300, thereby realizing the limit release, avoiding the video monitoring device drive motor from working, causing damage to the drive motor, and saving maintenance costs.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
