Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle-mounted cameras, and in particular to a hidden vehicle-mounted camera. Background Art

[0002] With the widespread adoption of in-vehicle cameras in the automotive industry, their functionality and design are constantly being optimized to meet rising safety and aesthetic demands. To enhance driving safety and convenience, many automakers and suppliers are committed to developing more intelligent, efficient, and discreet in-vehicle camera systems. These cameras not only record driving video but are also widely used in functions such as reverse assist, surround view systems, and forward collision warning, significantly enhancing the driving experience.

[0003] Utility model patent announcement number CN215204728U discloses a car blind spot camera, comprising a main shell one, wherein the bottom of the main shell one is fixedly connected to a bottom cover that can be glued to the car body, and there is a receiving cavity between the main shell one and the bottom cover, wherein a rotatable and adjustable camera assembly is provided in the receiving cavity, and the camera assembly is fixed to the inner wall of the main shell one by a pressing piece, and a main shell two is provided on one side of the main shell one. The utility model is simple and convenient to install, and does not require punching. The operation is flexible and the field of view is greatly improved, which further guarantees driving safety. By using 3M glue to stick the product to the door side of the car body and lead the lead from the door side into the car, the problem of the existing blind spot being difficult to install and unsightly is solved, and a better blind spot visual range is achieved. Fixing the camera assembly by a pressing piece makes it impossible to install the camera assembly stably. During long-term movement and vibration, the camera assembly is prone to position displacement, resulting in poor stability during long-term use. Summary of the Invention
