[0024] See also Figure 1 In a first embodiment of the utility model, an automotive electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure is provided, comprising a base 1, a clamping assembly 2 and a length-adjustable assembly 3, wherein the clamping assembly 2 is used for detachably connecting a camera of at least one specification; the length-adjustable assembly 3 comprises two connecting ends, wherein one connecting end is hinged to the base 1, and the other connecting end is hinged to the clamping assembly 2, and the angles between the base 1 and the length-adjustable assembly 3, and between the clamping assembly 2 and the length-adjustable assembly 3 in the same plane are adjustable, and the spacing between the two connecting ends in the plane is adjustable.

[0025] When using the automobile electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure to install a camera, the camera is connected to the clamping component 2, connected to the car through the base 1, and the clamping component 2 and the length-adjustable component 3 are rotated, and the length of the length-adjustable component 3 is adjusted so that the camera can fit tightly to the surface of the car to achieve the target installation effect. The entire installation operation is simple and can effectively improve the assembly efficiency. In addition, by rotating the clamping component 2 and the length-adjustable component 3, and adjusting the length of the length-adjustable component 3, the function of batch assembling cameras for rearview mirror housings of different shapes and sizes is realized, thereby improving the adaptability of the automobile electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure.

[0026] The automobile electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure provided by the embodiment of the utility model is realized by hinged connection between the base 1 and the clamping component 2 and the length adjustable component 3 respectively, and the angle between the clamping component 2 and the length adjustable component 3 is adjustable, so as to realize the rapid adjustment of the camera connected to the clamping component 2 to different installation positions in the same plane to adapt to the installation requirements of different models, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and adaptability of the automobile electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure.

[0027] In practice, the specific implementation of the clamping assembly 2 is not unique. For example, the clamping assembly 2 includes but is not limited to a spring clamp, a fixed clamp, an adjustable clamp, a suction cup clamp, a magnetic clamp, a rotating clamp, a snap-on clamp or a multi-axis clamp.

[0028] In some alternative embodiments, see Figures 2 to 4 The clamping assembly 2 is a spring clamp, which includes a plurality of jaws 21 and a support column 22. One end of the plurality of jaws 21 is hinged to one end of the support column 22 and is circumferentially spaced along one end of the support column 22. A spring 23 is provided between each jaw 21 and the side wall of the support column 22, and the other end of the support column 22 is hinged to the connecting end.

[0029] Specifically, the support column 22 is preferably a cylinder. Around the circumference of the support column 22, one end of a plurality of clamping jaws 21 is hinged to the side wall of the support column 22 at intervals. At least one spring 23 is provided between each clamping jaw 21 and the side wall of the support column 22. The two ends of the spring 23 are connected to the clamping jaw 21 and the support column 22, respectively. When the clamping jaw 21 does not clamp the camera, the spring 23 is in a stretched state, exerting a pulling force on the clamping jaw 21 and the support column 22, respectively, so that the clamping jaw 21 is tightly attached to the side wall of the support column 22. When it is necessary to install a camera, the clamping jaw 21 can be rotated to move the other end of the clamping jaw 21 away from the axis of the support column 22, or to move the other end of the clamping jaw 21 closer to the axis of the support column 22, thereby adjusting the clamping range of the clamping assembly 2 to achieve the effect of clamping cameras of various specifications.

[0030] In this embodiment, the number of the clamping jaws 21 is preferably 3. Of course, in practice, the number of the clamping jaws 21 can also be 4 or more, and this embodiment of the utility model does not limit this.

[0031] The embodiment of the present utility model comprises a plurality of clamping jaws 21 and a support column 22, one end of the plurality of clamping jaws 21 is hinged on one end of the support column 22, and the plurality of clamping jaws 21 are arranged at circumferential intervals along one end of the support column 22, a spring 23 is provided between each clamping jaw 21 and the side wall of the support column 22, and the other end of the support column 22 is hinged to the other connecting end of the length-adjustable component to form a spring 23 clamp, which is suitable for clamping cameras of different specifications, thereby improving the adaptability of camera installation.

[0032] In some optional embodiments, the clamping assembly 2 is a fixed clamp for connecting to a camera of predetermined specifications. The support column 22 is divided into two sections, and the two sections of the support column 22 are detachably connected. In actual applications, the clamping assembly 2 may include multiple fixed clamps, each corresponding to a camera of a different specification. When installing a camera, only one section of the support column 22 with a fixed clamp needs to be connected to another section of the support column 22 to form a complete clamping assembly for connecting the camera.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present invention, the support column 22 is divided into two sections to form a clamping assembly 2 that matches the specifications of the camera, so as to achieve the effect of clamping and connecting cameras of various specifications.

[0034] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, in combination Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of clamping jaws 21 are provided with hooks 211 at ends away from the support column. The hooks 211 of the clamping jaws 21 extend beyond the end surface of the support column 22, and the hooks 211 face the axis of the support column 22. By providing the hooks 211 on the clamping jaws 21, the embodiment of the utility model can reduce the contact area with the camera when clamping the camera, thereby enhancing the clamping force, preventing the camera from slipping or falling off during the clamping process, and making the connection to the camera more secure.

[0035] In practice, the structure of a camera is not unique. Generally, cameras can be clamped and fixed by the clamping component 2 , but there are some cameras with special structures that cannot be connected by the clamping component 2 .

[0036] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, in combination Figure 4 For example, one end of the support column 22 is a plane, and the center of the plane is provided with a mounting hole 24. The mounting hole 24 matches the camera and is used to connect the camera.

[0037] Specifically, some cameras with special structures include a connecting shaft that corresponds to the mounting hole 24 on the support column 22. For example, the mounting hole 24 and the connecting shaft each have a snap-fit ​​structure. When the connecting shaft is inserted into the mounting hole 24, the mounting hole 24 and the connecting shaft are engaged via the snap-fit ​​structure, thereby securing the camera to the support column 22. For another example, the mounting hole 24 may have threads on its inner wall, and the connecting shaft may also have matching threads. The camera may be connected to the support column 22 through the threaded engagement of the connecting shaft and the mounting hole 24, similarly achieving the effect of detachably attaching the camera to the clamping assembly 2.

[0038] Of course, in practice, the matching connection between the mounting hole 24 and the camera with a special structure may also adopt other connection structures, and is not limited to the snap-fit ​​structure and threaded connection method, and the embodiment of the present utility model does not limit this.

[0039] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 For example, the support column 22 is divided into two sections, and the two sections are rotatably connected.

[0040] Specifically, the clamping assembly 2 is connected to one section of the support column 22, and the other section of the support column 22 is hinged to the length-adjustable assembly 3. The two sections of the support column 22 are rotatably connected so that the clamping assembly 2 can rotate on the support column 22 to adjust the installation position of the camera, thereby meeting the requirements of different installation positions and improving the adaptability of the automotive electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure.

[0041] In this embodiment, the two sections of the support column 22 can be rotatably connected in various ways. For example, a hinge or bearing can be provided between the two sections of the support column 22, allowing one section to rotate about the hinge axis. Alternatively, the two sections of the support column 22 can be secured with a threaded locknut, which can provide the necessary rotational restraint at the connection. Alternatively, the two sections of the support column 22 can be connected together using a spring 23 pin or latch, with the pinhole designed to allow rotational movement. Of course, in practice, the two sections of the support column 22 can also be rotatably connected in other ways, and this embodiment of the utility model is not limited thereto.

[0042] In practice, the specific implementation of the length-adjustable component 3 is not unique. For example, the length-adjustable component 3 includes but is not limited to a telescopic rod or a telescopic frame.

[0043] In some optional embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, when the length-adjustable component 3 is a telescopic rod, both connecting ends of the telescopic rod are provided with a first connecting hole 31, and the base 1 and the clamping component 2 are respectively provided with a second connecting hole 25, and the first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 25 are fastened together by a bolt 4.

[0044] Specifically, the first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 25 are preferably through holes. The first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 25 are aligned, and then a bolt 4 is used to pass through the first connecting hole 31 and the second connecting hole 25 and to connect with a nut (not shown in the figure) to realize the hinged connection between the length-adjustable component 3 and the base 1, and the length-adjustable component 3 and the clamping component 2.

[0045] Specifically, the telescopic rod is used to extend or shorten in a straight line. When the telescopic rod is extended, the distance between the two connecting ends of the telescopic rod increases; when the telescopic rod is shortened, the distance between the two connecting ends of the telescopic rod decreases, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the camera position.

[0046] In this embodiment, the telescopic rod is preferably a pneumatic telescopic rod. When the pneumatic telescopic rod is adjusted to extend or shorten to a target length, the pneumatic telescopic rod can maintain a constant length, thereby increasing the stability of the camera installation position.

[0047] In practice, the base 1 is used to be connected to the surface of a car or the housing of an electronic rearview mirror, and its specific implementation is not unique.

[0048] In some optional embodiments, the base 1 includes a suction cup connection or a magnet connection.

[0049] Specifically, when the base 1 is a suction cup connector, the base 1 can be adsorbed and connected to the surface of the car or the electronic rearview mirror housing through the suction cup connector. This connection method is not only secure, but also will not cause damage to the car.

[0050] Specifically, when the base 1 is a magnetic connector, it is magnetically connected to the metal surface of the car through the magnetic connector to connect the entire car electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure to the car. This connection method is suitable for some special installation locations.

[0051] In a second embodiment of the present invention, a car is further provided, which includes the above-mentioned car electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure.

[0052] Specifically, the automotive electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure is used in automobiles to enable batch assembly of cameras for rearview mirror housings of varying shapes and sizes, thereby improving camera assembly efficiency and quality. Due to its flexibility, robustness, reliability, and ease of operation, the automotive electronic rearview mirror camera assembly structure is suitable for the production and manufacturing of automotive electronic rearview mirrors and has broad application value in automotive production.

[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
