[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the clamping ring can rotate at a certain angle on the positioning plate. When the two mating pieces are attached together, the two mating pieces are fixed by means of screws. Rubber pads are arranged on the inner circumferential walls of the two clamping rings.

[0009] Preferably, baffles are symmetrically arranged on one side of the positioning plate close to the top plate. The baffles are fixedly connected to the hole ends of the guiding holes. At the top of the opposite surfaces of the two positioning plates, there is an insertion plate. The vertical cross-section of the insertion plate is "L"-shaped, and the vertical section of the "L" shape is located inside the positioning plate.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting plate is movably connected inside the positioning plate. The top of the mounting plate is provided with equally-spaced limiting grooves. The insertion plate cooperates with the limiting grooves. Fixing blocks are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the mounting plate respectively. When the two positioning plates move away from each other to the maximum position, the baffles limit the fixing blocks.

[0011] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a vertical guide rail, a slider, a cylinder and a lifting plate. The vertical guide rails are symmetrically connected to the left and right sides inside the top plate. The slider is slidably connected to the vertical guide rail. The lifting plate is fixedly connected between the two sliders. The cylinder is fixedly connected to the top plate. The telescopic rod of the cylinder is connected to the top of the lifting plate. The camera is connected to the bottom of the lifting plate.

[0012] Preferably, annularly-distributed protective sheets are arranged inside the round holes. The protective sheets are made of elastic materials and one end of each protective sheet is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the round hole.

[0013] The advantages of the present utility model are:

Detailed implementation

[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0022] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present invention provides a vehicle operating state monitoring device, which includes two positioning plates 1 connected to the vehicle chassis. On the opposite surfaces of the two positioning plates 1, there are guiding holes 2. Inside the guiding holes 2, there is a mounting plate 3 connecting the two positioning plates 1. In the middle of the mounting plate 3, there is a vertical round hole 4, and the size of the round hole 4 is larger than the size of the camera 6, so that the camera 6 can achieve height change inside the round hole 4.

[0023] Above the round hole 4, there is a top plate 5 with a concave cross-section. The top plate 5 is fixed on the round hole 4. When the positioning plate 1 is fixed on the vehicle chassis, the top plate 5 is located inside the vehicle chassis. On the inner top wall of the top plate 5, there is a lifting assembly, and the camera 6 is connected to the lifting assembly. The lifting assembly drives the camera 6 to achieve displacement inside the round hole 4.

[0024] It should be explained that under the drive of the lifting assembly, the camera 6 can pass through the protective piece 18 inside the round hole 4. Thus, when the vehicle chassis is scratched, the bottom of the vehicle can be observed through the camera 6 to check whether there is damage. Moreover, usually, the rust situation of the chassis, the fastening state of each component, and whether there is foreign matter attached can also be checked. Compared with the way of lying down manually to check, the vehicle chassis can be checked more accurately.

[0025] Preferably, at the tops of the opposite ends of the two positioning plates 1, snap ring groups are symmetrically arranged. The snap ring group is assembled by two snap rings 7 that are approximately semi-circular. The material of the snap ring 7 is plastic and has plasticity. On the opposite surfaces of the tops of the two snap rings 7, there are mating pieces 8.

[0026] It should be explained that the snap ring 7 made of plastic has a certain elasticity. When the two snap rings 7 expand outwards, the opening angle of the snap ring 7 can be increased, so that it can be stuck on the bracket on the vehicle chassis.

[0027] Preferably, the bottom of the snap ring 7 can rotate at a certain angle on the positioning plate 1. When the two mating pieces 8 are fitted together, the two mating pieces 8 are fixed by means of screws. Rubber pads 9 are provided on the inner walls of the two snap rings 7.

[0028] It should be noted that by installing the mating pieces 8 on the snap ring 7, the two mating pieces 8 can be engaged with each other, and the screw can pass through the mating piece 8 and the nut to achieve locking, so as to realize the detachable connection of the positioning plate 1 and facilitate its rapid assembly and replacement.

[0029] Preferably, on one side of the positioning plate 1 close to the top plate 5, retaining pieces 10 are symmetrically provided. The retaining pieces 10 are fixedly connected to the ends of the guide holes 2. On the top of the opposite surfaces of the two positioning plates 1, insertion plates 11 are provided. The vertical cross-section of the insertion plate 11 is "L" shaped, and the vertical section of the "L" shape is located inside the positioning plate 1.

[0030] It should be noted that the retaining pieces 10 are fixedly connected inside the guide holes 2, so as to reduce the size at the port of the guide holes 2. When the positioning plate 1 moves outwards to the maximum position, it will be blocked by the retaining pieces 10, avoiding the situation that the positioning plate 1 is separated from the mounting plate 3.

[0031] Preferably, the mounting plate 3 is movably connected inside the positioning plate 1. Spaced-apart limiting grooves 12 are provided on the top of the mounting plate 3. The insertion plates 11 cooperate with the limiting grooves 12. Fixing blocks 13 are symmetrically provided at both ends of the mounting plate 3. When the two positioning plates 1 move away from each other to the maximum position, the retaining pieces 10 restrict the fixing blocks 13.

[0032] It should be noted that through the provided limiting grooves 12, when the two positioning plates 1 move to a suitable position, by inserting the insertion plates 11 into the limiting grooves 12, the relative fixed connection between the positioning plate 1 and the mounting plate 3 can be realized, so that after the positioning plate 1 is installed, the mounting plate 3 is also ensured to be fixed, enabling the camera 6 to achieve stable monitoring.

[0033] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes vertical guide rails 14, sliders 15, cylinders 16 and lifting plates 17. The vertical guide rails 14 are symmetrically connected to the left and right sides inside the top plate 5. The sliders 15 are slidably connected to the vertical guide rails 14. The lifting plate 17 is fixedly connected between the two sliders 15. The cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the top plate 5. The telescopic rod of the cylinder 16 is connected to the top of the lifting plate 17. The camera 6 is connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 17.

[0034] It should be noted that through the provided lifting assembly, the camera 6 can be driven to take pictures at different heights, and when it is not in use usually, the height of the camera 6 can be adjusted to the highest position inside the circular hole 4 to avoid damaging the camera 6 during vehicle driving.

[0035] Preferably, an annularly distributed protective sheet 18 is provided in the circular hole 4. The protective sheet 18 is made of an elastic material and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circular hole 4 at one end.

[0036] It should be explained that through the arranged protective sheet 18, the protective sheet 18 has a certain elasticity. On the one hand, it can enable the camera 6 to normally descend through the protective sheet 18 to monitor the vehicle chassis. When the camera 6 is above the protective sheet 18, the protective sheet 18 can also effectively prevent small gravel from hitting the camera 6 during the vehicle's driving, causing damage to it.

[0037] The detailed usage method and functions of the above embodiments are as follows:

[0038] When it is necessary to monitor the chassis state during the vehicle's driving, first find a suitable installation position according to the chassis of different vehicle models. There is a snap ring 7 at the top of the positioning plate 1. Adjust the positions of the two positioning plates 1. When the snap ring 7 moves to the installation position, do not fix the snap ring 7 on the vehicle chassis first. After finding the suitable installation position, insert the insertion plate 11 into the limit groove 12 to realize the fixed connection between the positioning plate 1 and the installation plate 3. At this time, when moving the positioning plate 1 back to its original position, expand the two snap rings 7 outward so that the two snap rings 7 are stuck on the brackets or beams on the vehicle chassis. After being stuck, the two mating pieces 8 are attached to each other, and screws and nuts are used to achieve locking and fixing.

[0039] When the vehicle encounters a scrape during driving, start the cylinder 16, so that the telescopic rod on the cylinder 16 drives the lifting plate 17 to move downward on the vertical guide rail 14. The camera 6 at the bottom of the lifting plate 17 will enter the circular hole 4 and finally pass through the protective sheet 18 at the bottom of the circular hole 4 and extend to the lower part of the vehicle chassis, thereby monitoring the vehicle chassis, and the situation of the vehicle chassis during driving can be effectively viewed, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle.

[0040] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
