DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and 5As shown, a foldable camera comprises a main shell 1 and a rotating shell 2, a section 11 arranged on one side of the main shell 1, and a section 21 arranged on the rotating shell 2, wherein the shape of the section 21 is adapted to the section 11, and the rotating shell 2 is rotatably connected to the section 11 through a rotating member, a battery 3 and a main controller 4 are arranged in the main shell 1, a camera module 5 is arranged in the rotating shell 2, a shooting hole 22 is arranged on the shooting end of the rotating shell 2 facing the camera module 5, the battery 3 and the camera module 5 are electrically connected to the main controller 4, and when the rotating shell 2 is in a non-rotating state, the section 21 faces the section 11, and the main shell 1 and the rotating shell 2 are surrounded to form a cylindrical shell.
[0019] When in use, the shape of the second section 21 is adapted to the first section 11, and the cylindrical shell formed by the main shell 1 and the rotating shell 2 has a more beautiful appearance, maintaining the aesthetics of the indoor place; when the shooting angle needs to be adjusted, the rotating shell 2 is rotated by the rotating part to adjust the shooting angle of the camera module 5, which is more practical; the utility model can fold the camera when not in use, avoiding the camera from being damaged by bumps and ensures the aesthetics of the indoor place, and can also adjust the shooting angle according to shooting requirements, which is more practical.
[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the rotating member includes a rotating seat 61 with one end fixed on the section 11, a rotating shaft 62 horizontally rotatably connected to the rotating seat 61, and a rotating groove 23 is provided on the rotating shell 2 opposite to the rotating seat 61. The shape of the rotating groove 23 is adapted to the rotating seat 61, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 62 are respectively fixed on the inner side walls of the rotating groove 23; in this embodiment, the rotating shell 2 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 61 through the rotating shaft 62, so that the rotating shell 2 can be rotatably connected to the main shell 1.
