Embodiment 1

[0038] As Figures 1-9 shown, in this embodiment, an installation structure of a camera is disclosed, a base 1, which has a first installation cavity 13 for installing a battery 4;

[0039] The rotating bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the base 1 and the rotating bracket 2 form a second installation cavity 14 in combination, and the first installation cavity 13 is spaced apart from the second installation cavity 14.

[0040] Furthermore, in combination with Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a rotating bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the base 1, a camera assembly 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating bracket 2, and the camera assembly 3 can swing up and down relative to the rotating bracket 2. That is, the camera assembly 3 can rotate relative to the rotating bracket 2 along a horizontally arranged rotating shaft, and the rotating bracket 2 can rotate relative to the rotating bracket 2 along a vertically arranged rotating seat, so as to realize multi-angle monitoring of the camera. Wherein, the base 1 includes an outer cover 11 and a top cover 12, and the outer cover 11 and the top cover 12 form the first installation cavity 13 in combination.

[0041] Furthermore, in combination with Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer cover 11 has a groove with an upward opening. When the top cover 12 seals the groove, the first installation cavity 13 is formed. An installation groove 11a is recessed at the bottom of the groove. The installation groove 11a is a stepped groove, and a through hole 11c is provided at the bottom of the installation groove 11a. The through hole 11c communicates the first installation cavity 13 with the second installation cavity 14. When the rotating bracket 2 is connected to the base 1, the through hole 11c is sealed by a related structure.

[0042] Specifically, in combination with Figures 6-8 As shown, a connecting column 21c is provided at the upper end of the rotating bracket 2, and the outer cover 11 has a through hole 11c for the connecting column 21c to be inserted and fitted. An end cover 17 for connecting the connecting column 21c is installed in the installation groove 11a. A bearing 16 is provided between the connecting column 21c and the outer cover 11, and the bearing 16 is installed in the installation groove 11a. A pressing ring 15 is fixedly installed in the installation groove 11a, and the pressing ring 15 abuts against one end of the bearing 16 away from the rotating bracket 2.

[0043] Further, in this embodiment, the inner diameter of the pressing ring 15 is larger than the outer diameter of the end cover 17, and the bearing 16 is fitted and installed in the smaller groove of the installation groove 11a. The connecting column 21c is fitted with the inner ring of the bearing 16, and the end cover 17 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting column 21c through a connecting member. The connecting column 21c is provided with an inner hole 21d, and the end cover 17 has a boss 17a that is inserted and fitted with the inner hole 21d. The outer diameter of the end cover 17 is larger than the inner diameter of the bearing 16, so that the connecting column 21c cannot be separated from the bearing 16, and the end cover 17 plays an axial fixing role on the connecting column 21c. Moreover, the end cover 17 covers the gap between the bearing 16 and the connecting column 21c, and the pressing ring 15 covers the gap between the bearing 16 and the installation groove 11a, further improving the sealing performance of the first installation cavity 13. Three positioning grooves 11b are provided on the side wall of the installation groove 11a, and the pressing ring 15 is provided with positioning protrusions 15a corresponding to the positioning grooves 11b; the setting of the positioning grooves 11b is used to increase the anti-torsion property of the pressing ring 15 and prevent the pressing ring 15 from deflecting relative to the installation groove 11a.

[0044] Further, as shown in Figure 7 combination, in this embodiment, the rotating bracket 2 includes a main bracket 21 and a horizontal rotating motor 22. An internal gear ring 21a is provided at the upper end of the main bracket 21, and the connecting column 21c extends upward from the center of the upper end of the main bracket 21. A rotating guide rail 21b is provided on one side wall of the lower part of the main bracket 21. The horizontal rotating motor 22 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the outer cover 11, and an output gear is provided on the motor shaft of the horizontal rotating motor 22. The output gear meshes with the internal gear ring 21a. When the horizontal rotating motor 22 operates, the main bracket 21 is driven to rotate relative to the outer cover 11 through the meshing of the output gear and the internal gear ring 21a.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a vertical rotating motor (not shown in the figure) is fixedly installed inside the camera assembly 3. A driving gear 31 is fixedly installed on the motor shaft of the vertical rotating motor. The driving gear 31 is meshed and connected with the arc-shaped tooth groove on the rotating guide rail 21b. By driving the driving gear 31 to rotate through the vertical rotating motor, the driving gear 31 drives the camera assembly 3 to rotate relative to the main bracket 21 along the rotating guide rail 21b.

[0046] A camera includes the installation structure described in any one of the above.
