Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wide-angle cameras, and more specifically, to a solar-powered wide-angle three-mode camera. Background Art
[0002] A wide-angle lens is a photographic lens with a shorter focal length than a standard lens, a larger viewing angle than a standard lens, a longer focal length than a fisheye lens, and a smaller viewing angle than a fisheye lens. The lens of a wide-angle digital camera has a very short focal length, a wide viewing angle, and a deep depth of field. It is more suitable for taking photos of larger scenes, such as architecture, landscapes and other subjects. It has a large viewing angle and can cover a wide range of scenery. The so-called large viewing angle range means that three photographic lenses with different focal lengths, wide-angle, standard and telephoto, are used to frame the scene from the same viewpoint. As a result, the former can capture more scenery up, down, left and right than the latter. When the photographer has no way out, if the scenery is difficult to capture completely with a 50mm standard lens, the problem can be easily solved by using the wide-angle lens's large viewing angle. For outdoor cameras, solar panels are usually used to provide power to the camera's battery to ensure the power supply and battery life of the outdoor camera.
[0003] Currently, for cameras powered by solar energy, the power generation of solar photovoltaic panels depends on the duration of sunshine. The camera and solar photovoltaic panel are usually fixed in place by bolt assemblies, while the relative angle between the sun and the solar photovoltaic panel is changing. Therefore, in various time periods of daily life, except for the initial position, the orientation angle between the photovoltaic panel and the sun will be misaligned over time, which will reduce the sunshine duration of the photovoltaic panel, affect the power generation of the solar photovoltaic panel, and thus affect the power supply of the camera. Utility Model Content

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary mechanism includes a connecting rod fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed rotating shaft, a hook is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod, and a lateral baffle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the three-mode camera.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a driving rod is provided on the outside of the three-mode camera, a docking portion is provided inside the upper end of the driving rod, and the longitudinal spacing between the lateral baffle and the connecting rod is equal to the wall thickness between the docking portion and the driving rod.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the lateral baffle is located on a side of the three-mode camera close to the hook.
[0011] Technical effects of the utility model:

[0018] like Figure 1-Figure 3 The utility model provides a solar wide-angle three-mode camera, comprising a three-mode camera 1 and a solar photovoltaic panel 2 arranged on the top of the three-mode camera 1, an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the orientation angle of the solar photovoltaic panel 2 is arranged between the three-mode camera 1 and the solar photovoltaic panel 2, and an auxiliary mechanism for assisting the adjustment mechanism to operate is also arranged on the outside of the three-mode camera 1, the adjustment mechanism comprises a mounting pad 3 fixedly connected to the top of the three-mode camera 1, a mounting column 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting pad 3, a connecting shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the inner end of the upper end of the mounting column 4, two fixed columns 5 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 7, the tops of the two fixed columns 5 are fixedly connected to the solar photovoltaic panel 2, a worm gear 8 is fixed to one end of the outer wall of the connecting shaft 7, two transverse active plates 6 are fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the mounting column 4, the two transverse active plates 6 are rotatably connected to a fixed shaft 10 on the side away from the mounting column 4, and a worm 9 meshing with the worm gear 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed shaft 10.

[0020] Furthermore, after the angle adjustment of the solar photovoltaic panel 2 is completed, the position state of the solar photovoltaic panel 2 after the angle adjustment is completed can be locked through the mutual cooperation between the worm gear 8 and the worm 9, thereby improving the stability of the solar photovoltaic panel 2 after the angle adjustment is completed.
