[0030] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a full-sky camera includes a camera 1, and also includes a base 2, a housing 3, and a servo motor 4 installed through the base 2. A bracket 5 is installed between the bottom of the servo motor 4 and the base 2. A rotary light-transmitting cover 6 is installed at the output end of the servo motor 4. A first bracket 7 is installed through the base 1, and a shaft rod 8 is fixedly installed through the first bracket 7. The shaft rod 8 penetrates into the rotary light-transmitting cover 6. The camera 1 is installed on the shaft rod 8, and the camera 1 is located inside the rotary light-transmitting cover 6. The housing 3 is fixedly connected to the base 2, and the housing 3 has an opening groove 31 exposing the rotary light-transmitting cover 6.

[0031] In the above technical solution, the camera 1 is covered inside the rotary light-transmitting cover 6, which protects the camera 1 and avoids the soiling and damage of the camera 1.

[0032] By driving the rotation of the rotary light-transmitting cover 6 with the servo motor 4, select light-transmitting shooting or polarized light shooting to ensure clear images and avoid overexposure.

[0033] Refer to Figure 5 As shown, the rotary light-transmitting cover 6 is disc-shaped, and the outer wall of the rotary light-transmitting cover has a light-transmitting surface 666 and a polarized light surface 667.

[0034] The light transmittance of the light-transmitting surface is greater than 95%.

[0035] The ratio of the light-transmitting surface to the polarized light surface is 1:1.

[0036] Adopt a design with half light transmission and half polarized light. In rainy weather, use the light-transmitting surface for light-transmitting shooting to ensure clear images. In sunny weather, use the polarized light surface for light-shielding shooting to avoid image overexposure.

[0037] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, a mounting plate 21 is provided on the top of the base 2. The upper surface of the mounting plate 21 is an arc surface, and the arc surface is coaxial with the rotary light-transmitting cover 6. Soft bristles 22 are evenly distributed on the arc surface, and the bristles 22 act on the surface of the rotary light-transmitting cover 6.

[0038] In the above technical solution, the rotary light-transmitting cover 6 can be driven by the servo motor to rotate quickly, and the surface of the rotary light-transmitting cover 6 can be cleaned by the bristles 22 to ensure sufficient cleanliness and avoid affecting the shooting clarity.

[0039] Refer to Figure 2 As shown, an opening corresponding to the bristles is provided at the rear end of the housing 3, and a blower 9 is installed at the opening. At the rear end of the housing 3, a rain shield 91 is provided outside the opening.

[0040] In the above technical solution, the rotary light-transmitting cover 6 and the servo motor can be cooled by the blower 9.

[0041] Refer to Figure 1 As shown, a heat dissipation groove 331 is provided at the front end of the housing 3.

[0042] The setting of the heat dissipation groove 331 can effectively discharge heat.

[0043] Refer to Figure 1 As shown, a drain port 332 is provided at the bottom of the housing 3.

[0044] The setting of the drain port 332 can prevent water from accumulating on the upper part of the base 2.

[0045] Refer to Figure 5As shown, one end of the rotary transparent cover 6 is connected to the output shaft of the servo motor, and the other end is provided with a shaft tube 661. A sealing ring 662 is clamped at the inner wall of the shaft tube 661. The shaft rod 8 passes through the shaft tube and forms a seal after cooperating with the sealing ring 662.

[0046] In the above technical solution, the sealing ring 662 can prevent dust particles from entering the interior of the rotary transparent cover 6.

[0047] Preferably, three cameras 1 are annularly arranged and distributed on the upper half of the shaft rod 8.

[0048] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
