Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of monitoring cameras, in particular to a mounting device for a spherical camera. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of communication technology, the country has completed the construction of the "Sky Eye" system, which has provided a powerful monitoring tool to ensure social stability to a large extent. The monitoring device selection includes various types of cameras such as gun cameras, ball cameras, and ball cameras with pan / tilt heads. Gun camera monitoring is suitable for a single channel, while ball cameras can achieve 360° multi-directional monitoring and can be used in a variety of areas, so they have been widely promoted.

[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number CN212463323U discloses a simple installation device for a spherical camera, including a base, a suspension device, and first and second torsion springs; the base is cylindrical, and two first and second support rods arranged opposite to each other are fixedly provided at the top of the base, the first support rod is provided with a first groove, the second support rod is provided with a second groove, and the first and second grooves are symmetrical to each other, the tops of the two grooves are both arc-shaped, and the radii of the two arcs are both R, a first circular through hole with a radius of r is provided in the first groove, and a second circular through hole with a radius of r is provided in the second groove, the center of the first circular through hole is the same as the center of the arc of the first groove, and the center of the second circular through hole is the same as the center of the arc of the second groove; the first support rod is also provided with a first mounting groove communicating with the first groove, and the second support rod is also provided with a second mounting groove communicating with the second groove, and the two mounting grooves are symmetrical to each other; the bottom of the inner wall of the base is provided with three spiral grooves matching the three threads on the outer shell of the spherical camera.

[0004] The above-mentioned prior art solutions have the following defects: although there are structures such as torsion springs in the device, if there is no clear fixing and locking mechanism, the spherical camera may still be shaken or unstable after installation, which will affect the stability and image quality of the camera. The spiral groove design at the bottom of the inner wall of the base is matched with the thread on the housing of a specific spherical camera, which means that the device may only be suitable for a specific model of spherical camera, and may not be used for other models of cameras, thereby reducing its versatility.

[0005] To this end, we propose a mounting device for a spherical camera to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model aims to provide a mounting device for a spherical camera to solve the problems of mounting stability and versatility proposed in the above background technology.

[0010] The driving unit includes a motor, a screw rod, a driving block, a through hole, a driving bar, a first connecting block, a second connecting block, a second connecting bar and a third connecting bar. The bottom of the motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the inner part of the mounting column, the top of the screw rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, the bottom of the screw rod is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the mounting column, the driving block is threadedly connected to the screw rod, the upper surface of the driving bar is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the driving block, the through hole is opened in the lower surface of the mounting column, the driving bar is movably connected to the inside of the through hole, the first connecting block and the second connecting block are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the driving bar, the second connecting bar passes through the arc block and is movably connected below the first connecting block and the second connecting block, and the third connecting bar passes through the top of the driving bar and is movably connected thereto.

[0011] Preferably, snap-in holes are provided around the outer surface above the mounting post, and the mounting post is snap-connected to the inside of the placement slot through the snap-in holes. Through the design of the snap-in holes, the mounting post can be easily snap-connected to the inside of the placement slot, making the installation process simpler and quicker, and improving the installation efficiency.

The second pillar will be pushed to the right, thereby compressing the spring, and when the second pillar passes through the clamping hole at the top of the mounting post, the compression of the spring will generate a reverse elastic force, which acts on the second pillar, so that the second pillar can fit tightly in the clamping hole at the top of the mounting post, thereby achieving clamping.

[0013] Preferably, there are four groups of fixing devices, which are respectively arranged around the inside of the fixed base. The first pillar has a conical shape on one side close to the placement groove. The arrangement of the four groups of fixing devices further enhances the stability of the mounting column, so that it can remain fixed in various environments to prevent the camera from shaking or falling off.

[0016] Preferably, an anti-slip strip is provided at the arc position of the arc block. The design of the anti-slip strip increases the friction between the arc block and the spherical camera, prevents the camera from slipping during the clamping process, and improves the reliability of the clamping.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0018] 1. The spring in the mounting device for the dome camera can be compressed when the mounting column is pressed upward, and rebound when the clamping hole at the top of the mounting column is aligned, so that the second pillar fits tightly in the clamping hole. This design ensures a tight connection between the mounting column and the fixing device, achieving a quick fixing effect.

[0019] 2. The installation device for the spherical camera adopts a clamping mechanism. When the motor is started, the driving bar moves up and down through the interaction between the screw rod and the driving block. This movement is transmitted to the arc block through the driving bar driving the first connecting block and the second connecting block, so that the arc block swings between the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate. In this way, the clamping unit can realize the clamping and releasing action of the spherical camera. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The arc block 305 is movably connected to the side where the first fixing plate 302 and the second fixing plate 303 are close to each other through the first connecting strip 304. An anti-slip strip is arranged at the arc position of the arc block 305. There are five groups of clamping units, which are respectively arranged on the lower surface of the mounting column 2;

[0031] The driving unit includes a motor 6, a screw rod 5, a driving block 4, a through hole 201, a driving bar 310, a first connecting block 306, a second connecting block 307, a second connecting bar 308 and a third connecting bar 309. The bottom of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the interior of the mounting column 2, the top of the screw rod 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 6, the bottom of the screw rod 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the interior of the mounting column 2, the driving block 4 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 5, the upper surface of the driving bar 310 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the driving block 4, the through hole 201 is opened on the lower surface of the mounting column 2, the driving bar 310 is movably connected to the inside of the through hole 201, the first connecting block 306 and the second connecting block 307 are fixedly connected to both sides of the driving bar 310 respectively, the second connecting bar 308 passes through the arc block 305 and is movably connected below the first connecting block 306 and the second connecting block 307, the third connecting bar 309 passes through the top of the driving bar 310 and is movably connected thereto, and the motor 6 in the driving unit drives the screw rod 5 to rotate, thereby driving the driving block 4 and the driving bar 310 to move up and down. The driving bar 310 is connected to the arc block 305 through the first connecting block 306, the second connecting block 307, the second connecting bar 308 and the third connecting bar 309, so that it can swing or move. The arc block 305 in the clamping unit is movably connected between the first fixing plate 302 and the second fixing plate 303 through the first connecting bar 304 to achieve a clamping action. The clamping mechanism can achieve a stable clamping of the spherical camera to prevent it from shaking or falling off.

The side of the first pillar 702 close to the placement groove 102 is conical. When the mounting column 2 moves upward, its top will contact the second pillar 704, thereby compressing the spring 703. When the clamping hole 202 of the mounting column 2 is aligned with the second pillar 704, the rebound force of the spring 703 makes the second pillar 704 fit tightly in the clamping hole 202 to achieve fixation.

[0033] Working principle: Select a suitable wall position, and use bolts 101 to firmly fix the fixed base 1 on the wall. Align the mounting column 2 with the placement slot 102 of the fixed base 1 and insert it vertically. When the mounting column 2 is pressed upward, the second support 704 drives the spring 703 to compress into the first support 702. When the clamping hole 202 of the mounting column 2 is aligned with the second support 704 in the fixing device, the second support 704 is ejected into the clamping hole 202 under the action of the spring 703, so as to fix the mounting column 2. Then place the spherical camera at a suitable position below the mounting column 2, ready for clamping, start the motor 6, and the motor 6 drives the screw rod 5 to rotate, driving the driving block 4 and the driving bar 310 to move up and down. The driving bar 310 is connected to the arc block 305 through the first connecting block 306, the second connecting block 307, the second connecting bar 308, and the third connecting bar 309, so that the arc block 305 can swing or move. The arc block 305 swings between the first fixing plate 302 and the second fixing plate 303 through the first connecting strip 304 to clamp the spherical camera. The arc block 305 gradually approaches the spherical camera until it is firmly clamped.
