[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 1-4 As shown, the housing assembly includes: a base 10 , a first housing 20 , a pan / tilt head 30 and a sealing tube 80 .

[0037] The base 10 may be a component in the housing assembly that provides a fixing and mounting position for other components. The base 10 may include a first opening 11 , and the first opening 11 may face the first housing 20 .

[0038] The first housing 20 may be a housing for installing the first camera 301 , and the first camera 301 may be disposed inside the first housing 20 .

[0039] The first housing 20 may include a second opening 21 , and the second opening 21 may face the base 10 .

[0040] The pan-tilt head 30 may be a component that carries the second camera 302 . The pan-tilt head 30 may be rotatably connected to the base 10 , and the pan-tilt head 30 may drive the second camera 302 to rotate relative to the base 10 , so that the second camera 302 may track the target or change the shooting and monitoring direction.

[0041] The sealing tube 80 has one end sealed with the first opening 11 and the other end sealed with the second opening 21 .

[0042] The connection line of the first camera 301 can start from the base 10, pass through the first opening 11, enter the sealing tube 80, and then pass through the second opening 21 along the sealing tube 80 to enter the first shell 20 to connect with the first camera 301. The sealing tube 80 can provide a waterproof effect for the connection line of the first camera 301 located between the first shell 20 and the base 10, prevent external liquid from entering the shell assembly from the first opening 11 or the second opening 21, realize the waterproof routing of the first camera 301, improve the waterproof performance of the electronic device, and improve the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0043] The first housing 20 can be rotatably connected to the base 10, so that the shooting direction of the first camera 301 can change with the rotation of the first housing 20, which can expand the shooting angle of the first camera 301 and reduce the shooting blind area of ​​the first camera 301. During the relative rotation of the first housing 20 and the base 10, the sealing tube 80 always keeps in communication with the first opening 11 and the second opening 21, and keeps in a sealed state with the first opening 11 and the second opening 21.

[0044] The present invention provides a first shell 20 that can rotate relative to the base 10 on the base 10, and seals the opening between the base 10 and the first shell 20 through a sealing tube 80, thereby expanding the shooting angle of the first camera 301 and reducing the shooting blind area of ​​the first camera 301. At the same time, the wiring of the first camera 301 is waterproof, the waterproof performance of the electronic device is improved, and the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors is improved.

[0045] In some embodiments, the sealing tube 80 is a flexible member, and illustratively, the sealing tube 80 can be a rubber tube or a silicone tube. During the rotation of the first housing 20 relative to the base 10, the sealing tube 80 can be deformed so that the sealing tube 80 always maintains communication with the first opening 11 and the second opening 21 whose positions have changed, and the sealing tube 80 can maintain a sealed state with the first opening 11 and the second opening 21. Thus, the wiring of the first camera 301 is waterproof, the waterproof performance of the electronic device is improved, and the reliability of the electronic device in outdoor use is improved.

[0046] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the base 10 may include a rotating portion 12, and the first housing 20 may include a rotating shaft 22, which may be rotatably connected to the rotating portion 12. When the first housing 20 rotates relative to the base 10, it may rotate around the rotating shaft 22.

[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the rotating part 12 may include a first part 121 and a second part 122 that are detachably connected. For example, the first part 121 and the second part 122 may be semicircular plates, and the inner side of the first part 121 and the inner side of the second part 122 may be spliced ​​together to form a cylindrical groove body, that is, spliced ​​together to form a rotating groove. The inner side of the first part 121 may be a semicircular surface facing the side of the second part 122, and the inner side of the second part 122 may be a semicircular surface facing the side of the first part 121.

[0048] The first part 121 can be fixedly connected to the body of the base 10, and the second part 122 can be detachably connected to the body of the base 10. The rotating shaft 22 can be set through the rotating groove. Exemplarily, the rotating shaft 22 can be set between the first part 121 and the second part 122, that is, the rotating shaft 22 can be set in the rotating groove formed by splicing and encircling the first part 121 and the second part 122.

[0049] During the installation of the rotating shaft 22, the second part 122 can be separated from the main body of the base 10 first, so that the rotating shaft 22 can be abutted against the first part 121 through the notch structure of the first part 121, and then the second part 122 can be installed on the main body of the base 10, so that the first part 121 and the second part 122 surround the rotating shaft 22, completing the installation operation of the rotating shaft 22 set on the rotating part 12.

[0050] By splitting the rotating part 12 into the first part 121 fixed to the body of the base 10 and the second part 122 detachably connected to the body of the base 10 , the process of installing the rotating shaft 22 on the rotating part 12 is simplified.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the housing assembly may include: a first damping member 101, which may be sleeved on the rotating shaft 22. And the first damping member 101 may contact the inner side of the rotating portion 12. The inner side of the rotating portion 12 may be the side of the rotating portion 12 facing the rotating shaft 22. For example, the inner side of the rotating portion 12 may be the groove wall of the rotating groove of the rotating portion 12, and the rotating shaft 22 may contact the groove wall of the rotating groove.

[0052] Exemplarily, the first damping member 101 may be a rubber ring sleeved on the rotating shaft 22 , the inner ring surface of the first damping member 101 contacts the rotating shaft 22 , and the outer ring surface of the first damping member 101 contacts the rotating portion 12 .

[0053] By adding the first damping member 101 between the rotating shaft 22 and the rotating part 12, a larger static friction force can be provided between the rotating shaft 22 and the rotating part 12, thereby increasing the external force required for the rotating shaft 22 to rotate relative to the rotating part 12. After the first shell 20 rotates to the target position, the first damping member 101 can increase the stability of the angle of the first shell 20 relative to the base 10, help maintain the angle of the first shell 20 relative to the base 10, and reduce the rotation of the first shell 20 relative to the base 10 due to external force impact, so that the shooting direction of the first camera 301 is stable, and the reliability of the electronic device is improved.

[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first housing 20 may include: a first front housing 231, a first rear housing 232 and a first sealing member 201.

[0055] The first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232 may be fixedly connected, and the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232 may be fixedly connected to form an accommodation space for arranging the first camera 301 .

[0056] The first seal 201 can be arranged between the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232, and seal the seal of the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232. Exemplarily, the first seal 201 can be arranged in the connecting gap between the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232, so that the first seal 201 seals the gap between the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232, preventing external liquid from entering the first shell 20 from the gap between the first front shell 231 and the first rear shell 232, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the first shell 20 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 10 may include a third opening facing the gimbal 30. During the production process of the product, components can be installed into the base 10 through the third opening. The third opening is configured to face the gimbal 30, so that the shell of the base 10 in other directions can be kept intact, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the base 10 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0058] The housing assembly may include a first plate 50 and a second seal 202 . The first plate 50 may be disposed at and cover the third opening. The second seal 202 may be disposed between the first plate 50 and the third opening, and the second seal 202 may seal the first plate 50 and the third opening.

[0059] Exemplarily, the third opening can be a circular opening, the first plate body 50 can be a circular plate body, one side of the second seal 202 can contact the side of the first plate body 50, and the other side of the second seal 202 can contact the inner surface of the base 10 near the third opening, so that the second seal 202 can seal the first plate body 50 and the third opening to prevent external liquid from entering the base 10 from the gap between the first plate body 50 and the third opening, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the base 10 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the gimbal 30 may include a fourth opening facing the base 10. During the production process of the product, components can be installed into the gimbal 30 through the fourth opening. The fourth opening is configured to face the base 10, so that the housing of the gimbal 30 in other directions can be kept intact, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the gimbal 30 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0061] The shell assembly may include a second plate 60 and a third seal 203, the second plate 60 may be disposed at the fourth opening and cover the fourth opening, the third seal 203 may be disposed between the second plate 60 and the fourth opening, and the third seal 203 may seal the second plate 60 and the fourth opening.

[0062] Exemplarily, the fourth opening can be a circular opening, the second plate body 60 can be a circular plate body, one side of the third seal 203 can contact the side of the second plate body 60, and the other side of the third seal 203 can contact the inner surface of the gimbal 30 near the fourth opening, so that the third seal 203 can seal the second plate body 60 and the fourth opening to prevent external liquid from entering the gimbal 30 from the gap between the second plate body 60 and the fourth opening, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the gimbal 30 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing assembly may include a fourth seal 204 .

[0064] The first plate 50 has a fifth opening, and the second plate 60 has a sixth opening, the fifth opening is opposite to the sixth opening, and the fifth opening and the sixth opening can communicate with the inside of the base 10 and the inside of the gimbal 30, so that other components can reach the inside of the gimbal 30 from the inside of the base 10. Exemplarily, the second camera 302 can be set on the gimbal 30, and the connection line of the second camera 302 can start from the inside of the base 10, pass through the fifth opening and the sixth opening to reach the inside of the gimbal 30 and connect to the second camera 302.

[0065] The fourth seal 204 can be disposed between the fifth opening and the sixth opening, and seal the gap between the fifth opening and the sixth opening. Exemplarily, one side of the fourth seal 204 can abut against the first plate 50 near the fifth opening, and one side of the fourth seal 204 can abut against the second plate 60 near the sixth opening, so that the fourth seal 204 can seal the fifth opening and the sixth opening, preventing external liquid from entering the gimbal 30 or the base 10 from the gap between the fifth opening and the sixth opening, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the housing assembly and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0066] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the housing assembly may include a first drive assembly 71, which may be disposed in the base 10, and the first drive assembly 71 may drive the gimbal 30 to rotate relative to the base 10. The first drive assembly 71 may transmit power to the gimbal 30 through transmission components such as transmission gears, so that the gimbal 30 may rotate around the base 10.

[0067] When the first driving component 71 drives the pan-tilt head 30 to rotate relative to the base 10, the pan-tilt head 30 can also drive the second camera 302 to rotate relative to the base 10, thereby changing the shooting direction of the second camera 302, so that the second camera 302 can track the shooting target or change the target shooting area.

[0068] Exemplarily, the first driving component 71 may be a motor.

[0069] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the housing assembly may include a fixing member 90 , which may be a component that can be fixed to an external entity such as a wall. The electronic device may be fixed at a specific position through the fixing member 90 .

[0070] The fixing member 90 may be disposed on the top of the housing assembly to avoid interfering with the shooting images of the first camera 301 and the second camera 302 .

[0071] The fixing member 90 can be rotatably connected to the base 10. When the base 10 rotates relative to the fixing member 90, the base 10 can also drive the first camera 301 to rotate relative to the fixing member 90, thereby changing the shooting direction of the first camera 301, so that the first camera 301 can change the target shooting area.

[0072] Exemplarily, the user may manually rotate the base 10 to change the target shooting area of ​​the first camera 301 .

[0073] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the housing assembly may include: a second damping member 102. The second damping member 102 may be disposed between the fixing member 90 and the base 10.

[0074] Exemplarily, the second damping member 102 may be a rubber ring whose inner surface contacts the fixing member 90 and whose outer surface contacts the base 10 .

[0075] The second damping member 102 disposed between the fixing member 90 and the base 10 can provide a greater static friction force between the base 10 and the fixing member 90, thereby increasing the external force required for the relative rotation between the base 10 and the fixing member 90. After the base 10 rotates to the target position relative to the fixing member 90, the second damping member 102 can increase the stability of the angle of the base 10 relative to the fixing member 90, help maintain the angle of the base 10 relative to the fixing member 90, and reduce the rotation of the base 10 relative to the fixing member 90 due to external force impact, so that the shooting direction of the first camera 301 is stable, and the reliability of the electronic device is improved.

[0076] In some embodiments, the rotation axis of the first housing 20 relative to the base 10 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the base 10 relative to the fixing member 90. This allows the first camera 301 disposed on the first housing 20 to adjust the shooting direction in two directions relative to the fixing member 90, thereby expanding the shooting direction of the first camera 301.

[0077] Exemplarily, the first shell 20 can rotate relative to the base 10 in the direction of gravity, and the base 10 can rotate relative to the fixing member 90 in the horizontal direction.

[0078] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing assembly may include: a fifth sealing member 205 , which may be disposed between the fixing member 90 and the base 10 and seal the fixing member 90 and the base 10 .

[0079] The fifth sealing member 205 can be disposed between the fixing member 90 and the base 10, and seals the gap between the fixing member 90 and the base 10. Exemplarily, one side of the fifth sealing member 205 can abut against the fixing member 90, and the other side of the fifth sealing member 205 can abut against the base 10, so that the fifth sealing member 205 can seal the gap between the fixing member 90 and the base 10, preventing external liquid from entering the pan / tilt head 30 or the base 10 from the gap between the fixing member 90 and the base 10, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the housing assembly and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0080] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the housing assembly may include: a second housing 40 and a sixth seal 206 .

[0081] The second shell 40 can be used to install the second camera 302 . The second shell 40 can be rotatably connected to the pan-tilt head 30 . When the second shell 40 rotates relative to the pan-tilt head 30 , the second camera 302 can rotate relative to the pan-tilt head 30 along with the second shell 40 .

[0082] When the platform 30 rotates relative to the base 10 , the platform 30 can drive the second housing 40 and the second camera 302 to rotate relative to the base 10 .

[0083] Exemplarily, the second shell 40 can rotate in a vertical direction relative to the pan-tilt head 30 , and the pan-tilt head 30 can rotate in a horizontal direction relative to the base 10 .

[0084] The above configuration allows the second camera 302 to adjust its shooting direction in two directions, thereby expanding the shooting direction of the second camera 302 and allowing the second camera 302 to track a target or change a target shooting area.

[0085] The sixth seal 206 can be disposed between the second housing 40 and the gimbal 30, and seal the gap between the second housing 40 and the gimbal 30. Exemplarily, one side of the sixth seal 206 can abut against the second housing 40, and the other side of the sixth seal 206 can abut against the gimbal 30, so that the sixth seal 206 can seal the gap between the second housing 40 and the gimbal 30, preventing external liquid from entering the gimbal 30 or the second housing 40 from the gap between the second housing 40 and the gimbal 30, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the housing assembly and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0086] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the second shell 40 may be a spherical shell, which is conducive to the second shell 40 rotating in different directions and reduces the rotation restriction caused by the angular structure.

Exemplarily, the seventh seal 207 can be arranged in the connecting gap between the second front shell 41 and the second rear shell 42, so that the seventh seal 207 seals the gap between the second front shell 41 and the second rear shell 42, preventing external liquid from entering the second shell 40 from the gap between the second front shell 41 and the second rear shell 42, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the second shell 40 and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.

[0091] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the second front shell 41 and the second rear shell 42 may be semicircular shells.

[0101] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the housing assembly further includes a protective member 400 disposed in the fifth opening and the sixth opening, and the connecting wire of the electronic device can pass through the fifth opening and the sixth opening through the protective member 400. The protective member 400 can protect the connecting wire and reduce the friction between the connecting wire and the first plate 50 and the second plate 60, thereby reducing the wear of the connecting wire caused by the relative rotation of the base 10 and the gimbal 30, extending the service life of the connecting wire and improving the reliability of the electronic device.

[0102] In some embodiments, the fixing member 90 and the base 10 can form a manual rotation relationship, and provide sealing and waterproofing through the fifth sealing member 205, and provide rotation damping through the second damping member 102.

[0103] The first front shell 231, the second front shell 232 and the first sealing member 201 form an assembly, which is fixed on the base 10 by the first part 121 and the second part 122. The assembly and the base 10 form a rotational relationship, and rotational damping is provided by the first damping member 101.

[0106] The second front shell 41 and the second rear shell 42 form an assembly, and sealing is provided by the seventh sealing member 207 .

[0107] Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an electronic device.

[0108] The electronic device may be a network camera, a PTZ camera, a surveillance camera, a digital broadcast terminal, a message transceiver, a game console, a medical device, a fitness device, a personal digital assistant, or other electronic device integrated with a housing assembly. In the following description, a PTZ camera is used as an example, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0109] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device includes: a first camera 301 , a second camera 302 and a shell assembly. The first camera 301 can be arranged in the first shell 20 , and the second camera 302 can be arranged in the second shell 40 .

[0110] The first camera 301 and the first shell 20 can be combined to form a gun-type camera, and the second camera 302 and the second shell 40 can be combined to form a spherical camera.

[0111] In some embodiments, when the electronic device is mounted on an external physical structure such as a wall through a fixing member 90, the rotation axis of the gimbal 30 relative to the base 10 can be the direction of gravity. The optical axis of the first camera 301 can have a first angle with the rotation axis of the gimbal 30 relative to the base 10, and the first angle can be 50° to 90°, that is, the optical axis of the first camera 301 can have an angle of 0° to 40° with the horizontal direction. For example, the horizontal depression angle of the optical axis of the first camera 301 is 0° to 40°.

[0112] Among them, the first angle can be changed by rotating the first shell 20 relative to the base 10. By arranging the first shell 20 that can rotate relative to the base 10 on the base 10, the shooting angle of the first camera 301 is expanded and the shooting blind area of ​​the first camera 301 is reduced.

[0113] In some embodiments, the horizontal depression angle of the optical axis of the first camera 301 is 15° to 40°. By setting the minimum horizontal angle of the optical axis of the first camera 301 to 15°, the rotation angle range of the first shell 20 can be reduced, that is, the rotatable space required for the first shell 20 is reduced, which is beneficial to the stacking of other components of the shell assembly.

[0114] In some embodiments, the optical axis of the first camera is tilted by -15°, and the adjustable angle range of the optical axis of the first camera relative to the horizontal direction is 0 to -25°.

[0115] The disclosed embodiment provides a first shell that can rotate relative to the base on the base, and seals the opening between the base and the first shell through a sealing tube, thereby achieving that the first camera can adjust the pitch angle of shooting, reducing the shooting blind spot of the first camera, and achieving waterproof wiring of the first camera. By providing multiple sealing components, all-directional waterproofing of the electronic device is achieved, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the electronic device and improving the reliability of the electronic device when used outdoors.
