[0018] The following is combined with Figure 1 This application is described in further detail.
[0019] The present application embodiment discloses a vehicle-mounted camera sliding concealing device, referring to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the vehicle-mounted camera sliding concealing device comprises a hardware bracket 1, a switch panel 2, a fixing member and a cover plate 6. The hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2 are combined and installed together by a plurality of fixing members; specifically, the fixing member is a self-tapping screw 3, and screw holes 4 are provided around the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2, and the screw holes 4 are threadedly connected with the self-tapping screws 3.
[0020] When the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2 are in contact with each other, the screw holes 4 on the hardware bracket 1 correspond to the screw holes 4 on the switch panel 2, and then the self-tapping screws 3 are respectively screwed into the corresponding screw holes 4, so that the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2 can be fixedly installed.
[0021] At the same time, a sliding cavity 21 is opened on the side of the switch panel 2 facing the hardware bracket 1, and the cover plate 6 is slidably installed in the sliding cavity 21 of the switch panel 2, and a first lens hole 5 is opened on the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2 respectively, and the first lens hole 5 on the hardware bracket 1 corresponds to the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2; specifically, the first lens hole 5 on the hardware bracket 1 cooperates with the lens of the camera, so that the lens of the camera extends along the first lens hole 5 into the space between the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2.
[0022] The first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2 is elliptical in shape, and is communicated with the sliding cavity 21 , so that the camera lens can shoot and monitor the outside through the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2 .
[0023] The cover plate 6 sliding in the sliding cavity 21 can effectively block or unblock the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2 by moving left and right, so that the lens is blocked by the cover plate 6 when not in use, which can solve the problem that the lens is exposed, which not only has poor aesthetics but is also prone to dirt, scratches and accidental shooting.
[0024] Preferably, a push-pull handle 61 is installed on the side of the cover plate 6 facing the switch panel 2, and the push-pull handle 61 cooperates with the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2 so that the push-pull handle 61 extends out of the switch panel 2 along the first lens hole 5; by moving the push-pull handle 61 left and right, the cover plate 6 can be driven to slide left and right in the switch panel 2.
[0025] Specifically, the switch panel 2 and the cover plate 6 are both made of plastic injection molding, and the push-pull handle 61 is also formed by injection molding, so the push-pull handle 61 is concavely injection-molded from the side of the cover plate 6 away from the hardware bracket 1 to the other side of the cover plate 6, so that the push-pull handle 61 extends out of the first lens hole 5 of the switch panel 2.
[0026] In addition, refer to Figure 1 In order to stably limit the cover plate 6, in the present embodiment, an elastic limiting component is further provided between the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2, and the elastic limiting component is used to stably limit the cover plate 6.
[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, the elastic limit assembly includes a limit panel 7, a limit seat 72, a spring block 73, a limit plug 731 and an elastic member. The limit panel 7 is placed between the hardware bracket 1 and the switch panel 2, and screw holes 4 are also provided around the limit panel 7. The screw holes 4 on the limit panel 7 correspond to the screw holes 4 on the hardware bracket 1 and the screw holes 4 on the switch panel 2.
[0028] The screw hole 4 on the limit panel 7 is threadedly connected with the self-tapping screw 3. By rotating the self-tapping screw 3, the self-tapping screw 3 is twisted from the screw hole 4 on the hardware bracket 1 to the screw hole 4 on the limit panel 7 in turn, and finally the self-tapping screw 3 is twisted into the screw hole 4 on the switch panel 2, thereby facilitating the installation of the hardware bracket 1, the limit panel 7 and the switch panel 2 together.
[0029] At the same time, a fixed cavity 71 is opened on the side of the limit panel 7 facing the hardware bracket 1, the limit seat 72 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed cavity 71, and a limit groove 721 is opened on the top of the limit seat 72, and the spring block 73 is slidably installed in the limit groove 721 up and down; the limit plug 731 is installed at the bottom of the spring block 73, and a sliding hole is opened at the bottom of the limit groove 721, and the sliding hole cooperates with the limit plug 731 so that the limit plug 731 extends out of the limit panel 7 along the sliding hole.
[0030] In addition, two elastic members are provided, both of which are springs 74. The two springs 74 are arranged between the spring block 73 and the hardware bracket 1, and spring holes 732 are symmetrically opened on the side of the spring block 73 away from the limiting plug 731. One ends of the two springs 74 extend into the two spring holes 732 respectively, and the other ends of the two springs 74 abut against the inner side surface of the hardware bracket 1.
[0031] Preferably, a guide tube seat is symmetrically installed on the side of the hardware bracket 1 facing the limit panel 7, and the ends of the two springs 74 away from the spring block 73 extend into the guide tube seat. The setting of the guide tube seat can effectively guide and limit the spring 74, thereby preventing the spring 74 from being offset when compressed.
[0032] A second lens hole 75 is also provided on the limiting panel 7 , and the second lens holes 75 correspond to the two first lens holes 5 . The second lens holes 75 prevent the limiting panel 7 from blocking the lens.
[0033] At the same time, a positioning ring seat 76 is also installed at the edge of the second lens hole 75, and the positioning ring seat 76 cooperates with the first lens hole 5 of the hardware bracket 1. When the hardware bracket 1 and the limiting panel 7 are pressed against each other, the positioning ring seat 76 extends out of the outside of the hardware bracket 1 along the first lens hole 5, which not only can play an effective positioning effect, but also allows the lens to extend into the positioning ring seat 76 along the first lens hole 5 of the hardware bracket 1, so as to facilitate the lens to shoot and monitor.
[0034] In addition, when the hardware bracket 1, the limit panel 7 and the switch panel 2 are installed with each other, the spring 74 pushes against the spring block 73, so that the spring block 73 drives the limit plug 731 to extend out of the limit panel 7 along the sliding hole. At the same time, two limit bar holes 62 are opened on the cover plate 6, and the two limit bar holes 62 are respectively located on the left and right ends of the cover plate 6, and the two limit bar holes 62 are respectively clamped with the limit plug 731.
[0035] When the movable cover plate 6 blocks and closes the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2, the limiting plug 731 is inserted into the limiting bar hole 62 on the left side of the cover plate 6 to firmly limit the cover plate 6; when the movable cover plate 6 unseals the first lens hole 5 on the switch panel 2, the limiting plug 731 is inserted into the limiting bar hole 62 on the right side of the cover plate 6 to firmly limit the cover plate 6.
[0036] Preferably, in this embodiment, a V-shaped end is provided at one end of the limiting plug 731 away from the elastic block 73, and the V-shaped end cooperates with the limiting strip hole 62 to penetrate the limiting strip hole 62. By providing the V-shaped end, when the limiting plug 731 limits the cover plate 6, it only needs to apply force to push the cover plate 6, and then under the action of the spring 74, the inner side of the limiting strip hole 62 on the cover plate 6 can more conveniently push the V-shaped end, so that the limiting plug 731 and the elastic block 73 slide, so as to achieve the limiting effect of unlocking the cover plate 6.
[0037] Secondly, refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, a plurality of positioning posts 22 are installed on the edge of the switch panel 2 facing the limit panel 7, and a plurality of positioning holes 8 corresponding to each other are opened on the edges of the hardware bracket 1 and the limit panel 7, and the positioning holes 8 cooperate with the positioning posts 22; when the hardware bracket 1, the limit panel 7 and the switch panel 2 are installed with each other, the positioning posts 22 penetrate the limit panel 7 and the hardware bracket 1 along the positioning holes 8 in turn, thereby facilitating the effective positioning and firm clamping installation of the hardware bracket 1, the limit panel 7 and the switch panel 2 when they are installed with each other.
[0038] In addition, a fixed shell is installed inside the car, and a limiting slide groove is opened on one side of the fixed shell. When the sliding concealing device of the vehicle-mounted camera is assembled with each other, the sliding concealing device of the vehicle-mounted camera slides and is clamped in the limiting slide groove; at the same time, an opening is also opened at the bottom of the limiting slide groove, and the opening corresponds to the first lens hole 5 and the second lens hole 75 and is connected to each other. The opening avoids the situation where the fixed shell blocks the lens.
[0039] The vehicle-mounted camera is also installed in the fixed shell, and the lens of the vehicle-mounted camera extends into the positioning ring seat 76 of the limit panel 7 along the first lens hole 5 on the hardware bracket 1; at the same time, mounting plates are installed on the outer side of the hardware bracket 1 and the outer side of the vehicle-mounted camera. These mounting plates are provided with multiple mounting holes, and threaded seats are also installed in the fixed shell, so screws can be used to pass through the mounting holes and twist them to be installed on the threaded seats, so that the ugliness-covering device and the vehicle-mounted camera of the present application can be further stably installed.
[0040] The implementation principle of a sliding concealing device for a vehicle-mounted camera in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: when the cover plate 6 is moved to the left by utilizing the push-pull handle 61, the limiting strip hole 62 located on the right side of the cover plate 6 moves to the position of the spring block 73. Due to the elastic force of the spring 74, the limiting plug 731 is inserted into the limiting strip hole 62 located on the right side of the cover plate 6 to limit and fix the cover plate 6. The cover plate 6 is in an open state, exposing the camera inside.
[0041] When the cover 6 is moved to the right by using the push-pull handle 61, the limit bar hole 62 on the left side of the cover 6 moves to the position of the spring block 73. Due to the elastic force of the spring 74, the limit plug 731 is inserted into the limit bar hole 62 on the left side of the cover 6 to limit and fix the cover 6. The cover 6 is in a closed state, covering the camera inside.
