Among them, the fixed base 100, the fixed base 100 is provided with a power module 110; the ball head bracket 200 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 100, and the ball head bracket 200 can rotate relative to the fixed base 100 in the horizontal direction; the ball head assembly 300 is rotatably connected to the ball head bracket 200, and the ball head assembly 300 can rotate relative to the ball head bracket 200 in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane; the ball head assembly 300 includes a main board 310, on which a first lens 311 and a second lens 312 are provided, and the focal length of the first lens 311 is greater than that of the second lens 312; a 4G module electrically connected to the main board 310, used to provide a 4G signal. Through the design of the ball head bracket 200 and the ball head assembly 300, the device of the present invention can rotate in the horizontal and vertical directions, thereby expanding the monitoring view angle. In addition, for scenarios that require long-distance monitoring, a single focal length camera may not provide sufficient details. The present invention adopts a dual-lens design, and the focal length of the first lens 311 is greater than that of the second lens 312, which can provide a farther visual experience. Preferably, the first lens 311 is a long focal length lens with a focal length of 8 mm and can be used to monitor distant views; the second lens 312 is a short focal length lens with a focal length of 2.8 mm and can be used to monitor near views. Thus, the binocular camera device of the present invention can monitor wider and farther images, thereby improving the monitoring quality. The 4G module electrically connected to the main board 310 provides a stable 4G signal to ensure effective data transmission and remote monitoring of the device in various environments.

[0035] In some embodiments, a 4G antenna 150 is provided on the fixed base 100, and the 4G antenna 150 is electrically connected to the 4G module. It is used to receive and send 4G signals.

[0036] In some embodiments, a sound module is further provided in the ball head assembly 300, and the sound module is used to input and output sound signals. Preferably, the sound module includes a microphone and a speaker. By providing the sound module, the monitoring device of the present invention can have a voice intercom function.

[0037] In addition, in a monitoring device, especially in remote or difficult-to-wire areas, power supply is an important issue. The present invention solves the power supply problem by providing a power module 110 in the fixed base 100, enabling the device to operate without an external power source. This improves its applicability and flexibility in various environments.

[0038] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 、 3, a first motor 120 is fixedly arranged in the fixed seat 100, and the output end of the first motor 120 is in transmission connection with the ball head bracket 200 to drive the ball head bracket 200 to rotate in the horizontal direction. Among them, the first motor 120 is still connected to the main board 310. When the binocular camera device receives a signal, the ball head bracket 200 can be driven by the first motor 120 to rotate in the horizontal plane direction to adjust the monitoring angle of view.

[0039] Further, referring to Figure 2 , 3 , a bearing 130 is arranged between the fixed seat 100 and the ball head bracket 200. The inner ring of the bearing 130 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 100, and the outer ring of the bearing 130 is fixedly connected to the ball head. The ball head bracket 200 has a transmission part 210, and the transmission part 210 passes through the inner ring of the bearing 130 and is in transmission connection with the output end of the first motor 120. By arranging the bearing 130, the rotation between the fixed seat 100 and the ball head bracket 200 can be made smoother, and the bearing 130 has extremely strong durability.

[0040] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , 3 , the ball head assembly 300 further includes a second motor 320, and the output end of the second motor 320 is in transmission connection with the ball head bracket 200 to drive the ball head assembly 300 to rotate in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane. Specifically, the ball head bracket 200 has two connecting arms, and the ball head assembly 300 is rotatably connected to the two connecting arms. Thus, when the second motor 320 rotates, the driving force can act on the ball head assembly 300 body, causing it to rotate relative to the ball head bracket 200 in the vertical direction, that is, in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane. Thereby, the device of the present invention rotates in both the vertical and horizontal directions, significantly expanding the monitoring range and enabling it to cover a wider area.

[0041] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2, the ball head assembly 300 includes a first housing 330 and a second housing 340; a first waterproof member 350 is provided at the connection between the first housing 330 and the second housing 340; a memory card interface is provided on the first housing 330 or the second housing 340, and a second waterproof member 360 is provided on the memory card interface.

By providing the first waterproof member 350 and the second waterproof member 360, the adaptability of the device to harsh weather conditions is enhanced, and the service life of the device is extended. Among them, the first waterproof member 350 is a waterproof ring, which can be one of a silicone rubber sealing ring, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ABS plastic, and polycarbonate (PC), preferably a silicone rubber sealing ring. The second waterproof member 360 is used to protect electronic interfaces such as the memory card interface from water intrusion, and can be one of a silicone rubber gasket, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ABS plastic, and polycarbonate (PC), preferably a silicone rubber gasket.

[0042] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the lens is exposed to the outdoor environment and is easily affected by rain, dust, etc., reducing the image quality. By providing waterproof lenses 331 on the first housing 330 at positions corresponding to the first lens 311 and the second lens 312, the lens is protected from the external environment. The protection level of the lens is improved, ensuring high-quality images can be provided under various environmental conditions.

[0043] In some embodiments, in an environment with insufficient light, the surveillance camera may not provide sufficient image clarity. Therefore, it further includes a lamp board 370 electrically connected to the main board 310. The lamp board 370 has through holes for the first lens 311 and the second lens 312 to pass through, and a plurality of supplementary light lamps 371 are arranged along the circumferences of the through holes. The setting of the supplementary light lamps 371 improves the image clarity and monitoring effect in low-light environments. Preferably, three lamp beads are provided above the first lens 311 and the second lens 312, and three lamp beads are provided below.

[0044] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1-3 , the fixing base 100 further includes an "L"-shaped connecting plate 140.

[0045] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 、 3, the binocular camera device of the present utility model can be installed by passing a fastener through the fastening channels on the first mounting surface 141 and the second mounting surface 142. Among them, the fastening channels are circular through holes or elongated threaded holes, and the fasteners are bolts, screws, iron wires, mounting belts, etc. Specifically, the first mounting surface 141 is located on a horizontal plane, that is to say, the camera can be ceiling-mounted through the first mounting surface 141, and then the device can be installed on the top of the wall by passing screws through the fastening holes. Or, it can be installed against the wall through the second mounting surface 142, and then the device can be installed on the side wall of the wall by passing screws through the fastening holes. Or, the camera device can also be tied to a tree trunk or a telegraph pole by passing a mounting belt through the fastening holes. By providing diversified installation options, the device can be adjusted according to different installation environments, improving the flexibility and convenience of installation.

[0046] Further, referring to Figure 3 , a bottom plate 1421 is provided on the second mounting surface 142, and the bottom plate 1421 is detachably connected to the fixed seat 100.
