[0034] Hereinafter, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as implying or suggesting relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present application discloses a waterproof battery applied to a camera, including: an upper housing 10, a lower housing 20, a waterproof member 30, and a battery pack (not shown in the figure). The upper housing 10 and the lower housing 20 are assembled in an embedded manner and form a receiving space for receiving the battery pack. The waterproof member 30 is located at the embedded end of the upper housing 10 and the lower housing 20.

[0037] Among them, the upper housing 10 is of an arc-shaped structure. One end of it is provided with a first convex edge 11, and the side end is provided with a second convex edge 12. The first convex edge 11 and the second convex edge 12 are integrally connected (for the specific structural style, please refer to Figure 2 shown). A groove 101 is provided on the side of the upper housing 10, which can facilitate the user to take it and increase the convenience of taking the battery.

[0038] See Figure 2, the lower housing 20 has a first frame groove 21 at one end for the first convex edge 11 to be inserted therein, thereby increasing the waterproof performance of one side end of the housing. Additionally, a second frame groove 22 is provided at the side edge of the lower housing 20 relative to the upper housing 10 for the second convex edge 12 to be inserted therein, and a waterproof member 30 is located in the second frame groove 22 for the second convex edge 12 to abut against, which can increase the waterproof performance of the side edge of the lower housing 20 relative to the upper housing 10.

[0039] Among them, a first threaded hole 23 for fixing the upper housing 10 is provided on the side edge of the lower housing 20, which can be used to fix the upper housing 10 and enhance the structural stability of the housing. Also, in order to prevent liquid from flowing into the housing through the first threaded hole 23, in this embodiment, the waterproof member 30 is covered on the side of the first threaded hole 23, thereby further improving the waterproof performance of the housing. The waterproof member 30 is made of an elastic waterproof material, such as plastic, and can closely fit inside the second frame groove 22 and on the side of the first threaded hole 23 to effectively prevent liquid from seeping into the interior of the housing.

[0040] In this embodiment, a heating film is provided on the outer layer of the battery pack, which can heat the battery at low temperatures to reach an appropriate temperature.

[0041] Among them, in order to conveniently and precisely control the working state of the heating film in a low-temperature environment, a temperature control component is additionally provided in the accommodation space for electrically connecting with the heating film, thereby ensuring that the battery pack can work at an appropriate temperature and improving the performance of the battery under low-temperature conditions. Here, it should be noted that the structure of the battery pack is not limited.

[0042] See Figure 2 , a plurality of plug holes 13 are additionally provided on the first side 14 of the upper housing 10 (i.e., the side with the first convex edge 11), and a through hole 241 is provided on the second side 24 of the lower housing 20 (i.e., the side with the first frame groove 21), and the plug holes 13 are exposed from the through hole 241, which can facilitate the connection between the battery and external devices.

[0043] Among them, the plurality of plug holes 13 are, for example, type-c interfaces, chip interfaces, button switch interfaces, etc. The second side 24 is used to abut against the first side 14, and the edge of the through hole 241 is set to be outwardly convex towards the end abutting against the first side 14 and closely abuts against the first side 14. This structural design can not only enhance the structural stability of the housing but also further improve the waterproof performance.

[0044] See Figure 2 and Figure 3, a third side surface 25 is provided on the lower housing 20, which is disposed opposite to the second side surface 24, and a wide edge 251 is provided on the side edge of the third side surface 25 for abutting against the upper housing 10. In this way, this design can further enhance the sealing performance of the housing, that is, the waterproof performance, as well as the structural strength during assembly.

[0045] See Figure 3 , in order to fix the battery pack, a second threaded hole 26 is provided on a side surface of the lower housing 20 away from the upper housing 10 to prevent the battery pack from moving within the housing, that is, within the accommodation space, so as to ensure the safety and stability of the battery pack.

[0046] In summary, a waterproof battery applied to a camera disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, by embedding the first convex edge 11 of the upper housing 10 into the first frame groove 21 of the lower housing 20 during assembly, and embedding the second convex edge 12 integrally provided with the first convex edge 11 on the upper housing 10 into the second frame groove 22 of the lower housing 20, and a waterproof member 30 is provided in the second frame groove 22 for the second convex edge 12 to abut against, so as to ensure the waterproof performance of the housing. In addition, a battery pack with a heating film is provided in the housing, which can heat the battery at low temperatures to reach an appropriate temperature. In this way, the embodiment of the present application can improve the waterproof effect of the battery housing while taking into account the problem of the influence of low temperature on battery charging.
