Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model mainly relates to the technical field of smart home cameras, in particular to a portable camera. Background Art

[0002] As an important part of modern family security and intelligence, smart home cameras have multiple functions and features. Smart home cameras can achieve all-round monitoring of the home environment through high-definition image quality and wide-angle field of view. Many cameras provide a wide-angle monitoring field of view greater than 110° and support flexible rotation. The shooting direction and angle can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the user to reduce monitoring blind spots. They have real-time monitoring functions and can continuously monitor the home environment. When abnormal dynamics are detected, alarm information will be sent to the user. Reasonable alarm sensitivity can ensure that users understand the family safety status at the first time. Many smart home cameras can be integrated with the smart home system to realize remote control, voice control and other functions. Through the smart home APP, users can easily view the real-time camera screen, play back video materials, adjust camera settings, etc.

[0003] Since smart cameras are easy to use, they can be temporarily plugged in and used anywhere in the home after being connected through a mobile phone APP without having to reset them. However, if there is no socket at the location where temporary monitoring is required, an external socket strip must be used, which is very inconvenient. In addition, the camera cannot be fixed in position on a temporary table. When the table is collided or tilted, the camera can easily slide to the ground and cause damage. Utility Model Content

[0022] The utility model describes a portable camera, wherein a base connected to the smart camera is arranged at the bottom of the smart camera, the bottom of the base is connected to a battery holder, a lithium battery is installed in the battery holder, the lithium battery supplies power to the camera in the absence of a socket or a wiring board, and a suction cup is also arranged at the bottom of the battery, and when the camera is moved, the camera can be fixed to the placement table through the suction cup.

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0024] Example:

[0025] The present embodiment provides a portable camera, including a smart camera 1. A base 2 is installed at the bottom of the smart camera 1. A battery holder 3 is connected to the bottom of the base 2. A lithium battery is installed inside the battery holder 3. A suction cup 4 is installed at the bottom of the battery holder 3. The suction cup 4 and the battery holder 3 are detachably threadedly connected. When the smart home camera is in use, the lithium battery inside the battery holder 3 can provide power for the smart home camera when the smart home camera is temporarily changed. When there is no socket at the changed position, the camera can be used directly without the need for an external socket strip, thereby improving the convenience of using the smart home camera. At the same time, the suction cup 4 can be used to adsorb the smart home camera on a temporarily placed table to fix the position. When the table collides or tilts, the smart home camera can be stably adsorbed on the table to prevent it from slipping and causing damage.

[0026] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a rotating plate 21 is installed on the top of the base 2, and a damping shaft 22 is installed on the top of the rotating plate 21. The rotating plate 21 is mounted on the outer ring surface of the damping shaft 22. The top of the damping shaft 22 is embedded in the bottom of the smart camera 1 and fixedly connected. The bottom of the smart camera 1 fits with the top of the base 2. At this time, in addition to the rotation function of its own lens, the smart camera 1 can also rotate as a whole on the base 2.

[0027] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a baffle 24 is installed on the top of the base 2 near the top edge of the rotating plate 21, and a limit plate 23 is fixedly installed on the top edge of the rotating plate 21. After the rotating plate 21 rotates one circle, the baffle 24 and the limit plate 23 fit together to cause movement interference of the rotating plate 21, thereby preventing the continuous rotation of the smart camera 1 from causing the internal connection harness of the device to be twisted off.

[0028] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a charging port 25 is installed on one side of the outer ring surface of the base 2. When the base 2 and the smart camera 1 rotate, the position of the charging port 25 will change relatively. Therefore, when the power cord is connected for use, the charging port 25 can be rotated to the position closest to the power cord plug.

[0029] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a magnetic suction groove 31 is opened at the top center of the battery holder 3, and a magnet sheet is provided at the inner bottom of the magnetic suction groove 31. The outer size of the metal gasket 26 is the same as the inner size of the magnetic suction groove 31. Therefore, when the metal gasket 26 is inserted into the magnetic suction groove 31, the metal gasket 26 can be sucked by the magnet sheet inside the magnetic suction groove 31 to prevent the battery holder 3 and the base 2 from being easily separated.

[0030] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, plug blocks 32 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the top of the battery holder 3, and two electrode posts are installed on the inner side of the top of one plug block 32. The outer size of the plug block 32 matches the inner size of the slot 28. The battery holder 3 is inserted into the two electrode holes inside a slot 28 at the bottom of the base 2 through the two electrode posts on the plug block 32, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the battery holder 3 and the charging port 25.

[0031] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the suction cup 4 is made of plastic material, and a through hole is opened on the top of the suction cup 4. A screw 41 is installed on the top of the suction cup 4. The screw 41 passes through the through hole from the inner side of the suction cup 4 and is threadedly connected to the bottom of the battery holder 3. The model of the screw 41 matches the threaded hole 27. Therefore, the camera can disassemble the battery holder 3 for use, so as to adapt to different usage scenarios.

[0032] Working principle: When the smart home camera is in use, when it is used in a fixed location, the battery holder 3 can be removed from the base 2, so that it can adapt to different usage scenarios. When the smart home camera needs to be temporarily placed in other locations indoors, the battery holder 3 can be installed on the base 2, and the suction cup 4 can be installed at the bottom of the battery holder 3. The lithium battery inside the battery holder 3 can provide power for the smart home camera. When there is no socket at the replacement location, it can be used directly without the need for an external socket strip, thereby improving the convenience of using the smart home camera. In addition, the smart home camera can be adsorbed on a temporarily placed table through the suction cup 4 to fix the position. When the table collides or tilts, the smart home camera can be stably adsorbed on the table to prevent it from slipping and causing damage.

[0033] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
