[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of industrial camera equipment, and particularly relates to a camera bracket. Background Art

[0002] As an important visual information acquisition device, cameras are widely used in fields such as security monitoring, industrial automation, and environmental monitoring. To ensure that the camera can effectively cover the required monitoring area, the bracket, as the installation base of the camera, its design directly affects the stability and monitoring effect of the camera. Currently, there are various types of camera brackets on the market, from fixed types to pan-tilt types, covering the needs from simple fixation to multi-directional adjustment. However, with the progress of technology and the complexity of application scenarios, traditional brackets seem inadequate in certain specific scenarios.

[0003] In production scenarios with certain risks, such as chemical plants, high-temperature environments, or clean rooms, it is not desirable for staff to enter and exit frequently to ensure safety, reduce pollution risks, or avoid interference with sensitive environments. At this time, the camera needs to independently undertake the monitoring task. However, traditional brackets are difficult to meet the need for real-time adjustment and cannot flexibly respond to changes in the height and angle of the device, resulting in insufficient monitoring coverage or blind spots. In this case, brackets that cannot be automatically adjusted increase the operation difficulty and safety hazards. There is an urgent need for a camera bracket that can achieve multi-angle adjustment to meet the remote control requirements in complex environments. Summary of the Utility Model

[0033] Embodiment

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, a technical solution of a camera bracket provided by the present utility model is: a camera bracket, including a base 1, a main rod 2 is installed on the base 1, and a height management structure 3 is arranged inside the main rod 2;

[0035] The height management structure 3 includes a rotating shaft 301, a lifting rod 302, a sliding groove 304, and a power mechanism 305. The rotating shaft 301 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The lifting rod 302 is arranged outside the rotating shaft 301. The lifting rod 302 is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft 301. A limiting slider 303 is arranged on the outer side wall of the lifting rod 302. The sliding groove 304 is opened inside the main rod 2. The sliding groove 304 is slidably connected to the limiting slider 303. The power mechanism 305 is arranged at the bottom of the rotating shaft 301. During actual use, the power mechanism 305 drives the rotating shaft 301 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 301 rotates, the lifting rod 302 connected to its outside will be driven by the rotational force. However, due to the sliding fit between the limiting slider 303 and the sliding groove 304, the rotation of the lifting rod 302 is restricted, resulting in the lifting rod 302 can only move up and down along the longitudinal sliding groove 304 of the main rod 2, thereby realizing precise adjustment of the height of the camera.

[0036] The power mechanism 305 includes a first motor 3051 and a tooth 3053. The first motor 3051 is installed on the base 1. A gear 3052 is arranged at the output end of the first motor 3051. The tooth 3053 is opened at the bottom of the rotating shaft 301. The tooth 3053 is meshed and connected to the gear 3052. In this design, the power mechanism 305 is arranged inside the main rod 2. This design improves the overall aesthetics of the bracket, provides good protection for the power mechanism 305, avoids possible damage when it is exposed to the external environment, and also improves the stability of the overall structure of the bracket. During the driving process, the first motor 3051 is responsible for providing power to the gear 3052, so that the gear 3052 starts to rotate. Due to the close meshing between the gear 3052 and the tooth 3053, when the gear 3052 rotates, it will drive the tooth 3053 to move synchronously, so that the rotating shaft 301 realizes the corresponding rotational movement.

[0037] A direction management mechanism 4 is provided at the top of the lifting rod 302. The direction management mechanism 4 includes a rotating part 401 and a second motor 402. The rotating part 401 is installed at the top end of the lifting rod 302 and is rotatably connected to the lifting rod 302. The second motor 402 is installed at the top of the lifting rod 302, and the output end of the second motor 402 is fixedly connected to the rotating part 401. In the actual use process, the main function of the direction management mechanism 4 is to drive the camera to rotate to ensure that the camera can cover a wider viewing angle. The camera is installed on the rotating part 401. When the direction of the camera needs to be adjusted, the second motor 402 starts and provides power to drive the rotating part 401 to rotate. As the rotating part 401 rotates, the viewing angle of the camera installed on it also changes accordingly, thus realizing the multi-directional observation of the camera.

[0038] A cavity 5 is provided inside the rotating part 401, and a vertical and horizontal reinforcing rib 6 is designed inside the cavity 5. By providing the cavity 5 inside the rotating part 401, the weight of the upper part can be significantly reduced and the center of gravity can be lowered, making it have high stability during the lifting process. By arranging the vertical and horizontal reinforcing ribs 6 inside the cavity 5, the structural strength can be improved and the durability of the rotating part 401 can be enhanced.

[0039] Positioning rings 7 for restricting cables are provided on the side walls of both the rotating part 401 and the main rod 2. This design can orderly arrange and fix the cables along the bracket, prevent the cables from being wound during the movement of the bracket, and eliminate potential hazards.

[0040] A recess 8 is provided on the side wall of the rotating part 401. The provision of the recess 8 can provide additional restraint to the fixed camera, effectively preventing the camera from accidentally moving or changing position during use, thereby ensuring that the camera always remains stable in different operating states and further improving the imaging quality.

[0041] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0042] When the height of the camera needs to be adjusted in a camera bracket of this embodiment, the power mechanism 305 drives the gear 3052 to rotate through the first motor 3051. The gear 3052 meshes with the tooth 3053 at the bottom of the rotating shaft 301 to drive the rotating shaft 301 to rotate. Since the lifting rod 302 is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft 301, the rotation of the rotating shaft 301 will cause the lifting rod 302 to move up and down along the sliding groove 304 of the main rod 2 through screw drive, thereby realizing the precise adjustment of the camera height;

[0043] When it is necessary to adjust the viewing direction of the camera, the second motor 402 starts and drives the rotating part 401 to rotate through its output end. The camera is installed on the rotating part 401. As the rotating part 401 rotates, the viewing angle of the camera also changes accordingly, thereby achieving multi-directional viewing. Through this combined structure, the camera bracket can effectively adjust the height and direction during use, ensuring that the camera is always in the best observation position, improving the camera quality and monitoring effect.

[0044] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only preferred examples of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
