[0028] The main body 100 includes a mechanical arm 101, the end of the mechanical arm 101 is fixedly connected to a connecting tube 102, the side of the connecting tube 102 away from the mechanical arm 101 is fixedly connected to a mounting tube 103, the inner side of the mounting tube 103 is provided with a primary cavity connected to the connecting tube 102, the inner wall of the mounting tube 103 is also fixedly connected to a camera 104, and the side wall of the connecting tube 102 is provided with multiple groups of air inlets 102a;

[0029] The cleaning component 200 includes a fan 201 and a rotating bin 202. The fan 201 is sleeved on one side of the mounting tube 103 close to the camera lens 104 and has a secondary cavity therein. Two groups of primary ring-mounted protrusions are arranged on the inner side of the rotating bin 202. A secondary ring-mounted protrusion is arranged at a position between the two groups of ring-mounted protrusions of the mounting tube 103. The mounting tube 103 and the rotating bin 202 are rotatably connected through the secondary ring-mounted protrusions and the two groups of primary ring-mounted protrusions. The secondary ring-mounted protrusions are provided with multiple groups of connecting holes 103a connected with the primary cavity. Multiple groups of air inlet holes 202b are provided on the inner wall of the rotating bin 202 between the two groups of primary ring-mounted protrusions. The primary cavity and the secondary cavity are connected with each other through the multiple groups of connecting holes 103a and the air inlet holes 202b. Two groups of air outlet holes 202a are symmetrically provided at the position of the inner side of the rotating bin 202 facing the camera lens 104.

[0030] The driving mechanism 300 includes a gear ring 301 and a driving component for cooperating with the gear ring 301 to drive the rotating bin 202 to rotate. The gear ring 301 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating bin 202. The driving component is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting tube 103. The driving component includes a mounting plate 302, a driving motor 303 and a gear 304. The mounting plate 302 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting tube 103. The driving motor 303 is fixedly connected to the side of the driving motor 303 facing away from the rotating bin 202. A through hole is provided on the mounting plate 302 at a position opposite to the rotating shaft of the driving motor 303. The rotating shaft of the driving motor 303 passes through the through hole. A gear 304 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft of the driving motor 303. The gear 304 and the gear ring 301 are meshed with each other.

[0031] Among them, the connecting cylinder 102, the installing cylinder 103 and the rotating bin 202 are all made of plastic materials, which are easy to process and have low cost. The connecting cylinder 102, the installing cylinder 103 and the rotating bin 202 are arranged with their axes overlapping, which is beneficial to improving the structural stability of the device. Multiple groups of air inlets 102a are arranged equidistantly around the connecting cylinder 102, and the equidistant arrangement is beneficial to ensuring the structural stability.

The driving motor 303 drives the gear 304 to rotate, the gear 304 drives the gear ring 301 to rotate, and the gear ring 301 drives the rotating bin 202 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating bin 202 enables the air flow to completely clean the surface of the camera 104 lens. At the same time, the air flow can also prevent dust from adhering to the surface of the camera 104 lens.
