Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of underwater observation, in particular to a multi-viewing sealed cabin camera device for underwater observation, which is particularly suitable for underwater exploration, marine scientific research, fishery management, seabed resource investigation, shipwreck salvage, underwater engineering and other operating occasions. Background Art

[0002] Underwater observation technology is a technology specifically used for visual observation and image capture in underwater environments. This technology has a wide range of applications in underwater exploration, marine scientific research, fishery management, seabed resource surveys, shipwreck salvage, underwater engineering operations, and many other fields.

[0003] The existing underwater observation cameras mainly include periscope cameras and underwater special cameras, which can adapt to different application requirements and environmental conditions. The periscope camera is similar to the periscope of a submarine. It consists of a camera host, a controller, a sensor, a data storage device and other parts. The camera host is connected to the water control center through a cable for underwater shooting. At the same time, the camera host can be adjusted in the up, down, left and right directions to achieve a more comprehensive shooting. Periscope cameras are widely used in underwater vehicles, deep-water transportation, marine archaeology, marine scientific research and other fields. Underwater special cameras are cameras designed for underwater environments, with higher waterproof, pressure-resistant and corrosion-resistant capabilities. They usually have the characteristics of high resolution, high definition, low noise, etc., and can shoot clear and stable images in underwater environments. Underwater special cameras are widely used in deep-sea exploration, marine scientific research, underwater engineering construction and other fields.

[0004] Of the two types of underwater observation cameras mentioned above, the camera host, as an important equipment for underwater operations, must have good sealing and waterproof performance, and according to the different underwater operating depths, it is also required to have good water pressure resistance, which greatly increases their manufacturing costs and makes them only suitable for medium and large special equipment in specific occasions. If such underwater observation cameras are used on small underwater observation unmanned operating equipment, their manufacturing costs are far greater than the benefits, which is not worth the cost, and the occasions of use are greatly limited. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a multi-viewing angle sealed cabin camera device for underwater observation. The camera host of the camera device does not need to have sealing and waterproof performance and water pressure resistance, has a low manufacturing cost, and can be applied to any underwater observation operation occasion.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the following technical solutions are adopted:

[0007] The utility model is characterized in that the multi-viewing sealed cabin camera device for underwater observation comprises a sealed cabin, and a controller is arranged in the sealed cabin. A transparent visualization window is arranged at one end of the sealed cabin, and the visualization window is sealed and fixedly connected to the sealed cabin. A mounting plate is arranged on the sealed cabin inside the visualization window, and a panoramic camera is arranged between the visualization window and the mounting plate, and the panoramic camera is connected to the mounting plate. The panoramic camera is electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] The panoramic camera includes a camera assembly, a camera end of the camera assembly corresponds to the visualization window, and the other end of the camera assembly is connected to a steering gear, which is fixedly connected to the mounting plate. The camera assembly and the steering gear are both electrically connected to the controller.

[0009] The camera assembly includes a support, a circuit board is fixed on one side of the support corresponding to the visualization window, a camera module is connected to the circuit board on one side corresponding to the visualization window, and an integrally connected housing is provided on the periphery of the support, the outer side of the circuit board and the periphery of the camera module, and the housing is fixedly connected to the support. One end of the support corresponding to the mounting plate is connected to the steering gear, and the circuit board is electrically connected to the controller.

[0010] In the above solution, the visualization window is in the shape of a hemisphere bulging toward the outside of the sealed cabin.

[0011] The above solution has the following advantages:

[0012] The utility model comprises a sealed cabin with multiple viewing angles for underwater observation, wherein a controller is arranged in the sealed cabin; a transparent visualization window is arranged at one end of the sealed cabin, and the visualization window is sealed and fixedly connected to the sealed cabin; a mounting plate is arranged on the sealed cabin inside the visualization window, and a panoramic camera is arranged between the visualization window and the mounting plate, and the panoramic camera is connected to the mounting plate; the panoramic camera is electrically connected to the controller. It can be seen that the camera host (i.e., the panoramic camera) of the utility model's sealed cabin with multiple viewing angles for underwater observation is installed in the sealed cabin, and the underwater observation operation can be realized by using the transparent visualization window. The camera host does not need to have sealing and waterproof performance and water pressure resistance, and the most common type can be used, which can greatly reduce the manufacturing cost. This structure can not only be used on medium and large special equipment in specific occasions, but also installed on small underwater observation unmanned operation equipment, which can reduce investment, increase income, and is not subject to any restrictions on the occasions of use.

A mounting plate 3 is arranged on the sealed cabin 1 inside the visualization window 5, and a panoramic camera is arranged between the visualization window 5 and the mounting plate 3, and the panoramic camera is connected to the mounting plate 3. The panoramic camera is electrically connected to the controller 2. The visualization window 5 is a hemispherical shape that bulges toward the outside of the sealed cabin 1.

[0016] The panoramic camera includes a camera assembly, the camera end of which corresponds to the visualization window 5, and the other end of the camera assembly is connected to a steering engine 4, which is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 3.
