[0020] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The role of the drawings is to supplement the description of the text part of the specification, enabling people to intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Referring to Figures 1-4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, a hardware camera cover plate includes a mounting plate 1. A camera 7 is installed on the front side of the mounting plate 1. In order to effectively protect the camera 7, a U-shaped closed plate 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting plate 1 close to the camera 7, which can effectively block and protect the camera 7 from direct external impact and pollution. A sealing strip 6 is provided on the front surface and the side surface of the closed plate 3. In order to realize the flexible opening and closing of the cover body 2, guide grooves 4 are opened inside the upper and lower sides of the closed plate 3. Two L-shaped sliders 5 are slidably connected inside the two guide grooves 4. A cover body 2 having the same shape as the closed plate 3 is fixedly connected between the two sliders 5. The slider 5 can freely slide in the guide groove 4, thereby driving the cover body 2 to move. And the arc part of the slider 5 close to the cover body 2, the cover body 2 contacts the sealing strip 6 and can realize a sliding connection.
[0022] When the camera 7 is in normal use, the slider 5 is located at the rightmost side of the guide groove 4 so that the cover body 2 is located on one side of the camera 7, ensuring that the camera 7 can stably and accurately capture images. When it is necessary to cover the camera 7, moving the cover body 2 to drive the slider 5 to move inside the guide groove 4 can ensure the stable movement of the cover body 2. The cover body 2 moves to the front of the camera 7 and cooperates with the closed plate 3 to form a complete closed space to protect the camera 7, and the sealing strip 6 is closely attached between the cover body 2 and the closed plate 3, which can effectively prevent dust, moisture, etc. from entering the closed space to ensure the normal use of the camera 7.
[0023] In order to facilitate the user to operate the cover body 2, an operation plate 9 is fixedly connected to the side of the cover body 2 opposite to the arc part. An anti-slip part 10, such as anti-slip texture or protrusion, etc., is provided on the front side of the operation plate 9 to increase the friction between the user's hand and the operation plate 9 and prevent slipping when opening or closing the cover body 2.
[0024] In order to intuitively display the state of the camera 7, a closed state indicator 11 is fixedly connected to the front side of the mounting plate 1 and on one side of the camera 7, and an open state indicator 12 is fixedly connected to the front side of the mounting plate 1 and on the side opposite to the camera 7. A transparent plate 8 is embedded inside the cover body 2 and close to the operation plate 9. The closed state indicator 11 and the open state indicator 12 can be made of red cards and green cards respectively.
[0025] When the cover body 2 covers in front of the camera 7, the transparent plate 8 is arranged opposite to the closed state indicator plate 11, and at the same time, the operation plate 9 covers in front of the open state indicator plate 12, so as to indicate that the camera 7 is in the covered state under the action of the closed state indicator plate 11 and the transparent plate 8, which is convenient for reminding the user. When the cover body 2 is located on one side of the camera 7, the transparent plate 8 is arranged opposite to the open state indicator plate 12, and at the same time, the cover body 2 covers in front of the closed state indicator plate 11, so as to indicate that the camera 7 is in the open state under the action of the open state indicator plate 12 and the transparent plate 8. Thus, the red and green closed state indicator plate 11 and open state indicator plate 12 can quickly attract the user's attention visually, so as to better remind the user to operate the cover body 2 according to the usage requirements, and it is convenient and flexible to use.
[0026] On one side of the sealing strip 6 close to the cover body 2, there are several protrusions, which can increase the friction between the sealing strip 6 and the cover body 2 and improve the sealing effect. The cover body 2 is made of aluminum alloy material, which has the advantages of light weight and high strength. It is not only beautiful, but also has excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance and impact resistance, and can effectively protect the camera 7.
[0027] Working principle: When the camera 7 is in normal use, the slider 5 is located at the rightmost side of the guide groove 4, so that the cover body 2 is located on one side of the camera 7, ensuring that the camera 7 can stably and accurately capture images. When it is necessary to cover the camera 7, moving the cover body 2 drives the slider 5 to move inside the guide groove 4, which can ensure the stable movement of the cover body 2. The cover body 2 moves in front of the camera 7 and cooperates with the closing plate 3 to form a complete closed space to protect the camera 7, and the sealing strip 6 is closely attached between the cover body 2 and the closing plate 3, which can effectively prevent dust, moisture, etc. from entering the closed space inside to ensure the normal use of the camera 7;
[0028] When the cover body 2 covers in front of the camera 7, the transparent plate 8 is arranged opposite to the closed state indicator plate 11, and at the same time, the operation plate 9 covers in front of the open state indicator plate 12, so as to indicate that the camera 7 is in the covered state under the action of the closed state indicator plate 11 and the transparent plate 8, which is convenient for reminding the user. When the cover body 2 is located on one side of the camera 7, the transparent plate 8 is arranged opposite to the open state indicator plate 12, and at the same time, the cover body 2 covers in front of the closed state indicator plate 11, so as to indicate that the camera 7 is in the open state under the action of the open state indicator plate 12 and the transparent plate 8. Thus, the red and green closed state indicator plate 11 and open state indicator plate 12 can quickly attract the user's attention visually, so as to better remind the user to operate the cover body 2 according to the usage requirements, and it is convenient and flexible to use.
[0029] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art.
