[0002] Children's cameras are designed specifically for children, featuring cute designs, compact size, lightweight design, and durability. Considering the risk of children accidentally dropping or bumping their cameras, children's cameras are generally made of sturdy materials, offering a certain degree of drop resistance and durability. They are also easy to use: the user interface is concise, and the buttons and function settings are easy for children to understand and operate. They typically include basic functions like one-touch photo and video recording, requiring no complex settings or adjustments. Compared to adult cameras, children's cameras typically have lower pixel counts to reduce costs while also avoiding the complex operation and storage requirements associated with higher pixel counts.

[0040] The utility model provides Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4The illustrated embodiment of a rotatable, retractable lens for a children's camera is a key component of a children's camera. It is mounted on one end of the camera housing 4 and used to capture image information. The main structure comprises a base fixing cover 1, a lens base 2, and a camera lens 3. The base fixing cover 1 is mounted on the camera housing 4 and is provided with at least one set of scroll telescopic assemblies 11. The scroll telescopic assemblies 11 include a first gear 111, which is used to drive the scroll telescopic assemblies 11 to extend and retract. Preferably, the base fixing cover 1 is provided with two sets of scroll telescopic assemblies 11, which can balance the camera lens 3 along the axis of the lens base 2. The scroll telescopic assemblies 11 are simple in structure and low in production cost. The lens base 2 is movably connected to the base fixing cover 1. A gear ring 21 is provided on the lens base 2, which meshes with the first gear 111. The camera lens 3 is slidably connected to the lens base 2, forming a linkage structure with the lens base 2. The camera lens 3 is slidably retracted and retracted along the central axis of the lens base 2 by the scroll telescopic assemblies 11. When the lens base 2 is rotated, the first gear 111 is driven to rotate via the gear ring 21, thereby causing the screw telescopic assembly 11 to extend and retract, thereby causing the camera lens 3 to extend and retract along the axis of the lens base 2.

[0041] It should be noted that the existing children's camera lens 3 is usually fixed as a whole on the rear shell of the camera body and does not have a rotation and telescopic function. This structural design limits the fun and interactivity of children's cameras to a certain extent. The expensive telescopic lens design of adult cameras is obviously not suitable for children's cameras. When using the present invention, the user rotates the lens base 2 to rotate the gear ring 21, which in turn drives the spiral telescopic assembly 11 to telescope, so that the camera lens 3 can achieve the telescopic function, which can effectively increase the fun and interactivity of children's cameras. The structural design of the spiral telescopic assembly 11, which is a manual telescopic camera lens 3, can also effectively reduce manufacturing costs and improve production efficiency.

[0042] Further, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the worm telescopic assembly 11 also includes: a worm 112 and a worm wheel 113. The worm 112 is movably connected to the base fixing cover 1. At least two worm tracks 1121 are provided on the outer wall of the worm 112. The worm tracks 1121 are spirally wound around the outer wall of the worm 112 and extend along the extension direction of the worm 112. The two worm tracks 1121 are symmetrically arranged, and the worm tracks 1121 and the worm 112 are integrally formed; the worm wheel 113 is slidably connected to the outer side of the worm 112, and the camera lens 3 is connected to the worm 112. The inner side wall of the worm wheel 113 is provided with a worm groove 1131 that matches the worm track 1121; wherein the first gear 111 is provided at one end of the worm 112, and the first gear 111 is used to rotate the worm 112 so that the worm wheel 113 moves along the extension direction of the worm 112. When the user rotates the lens base 2, the gear ring 21 drives the first gear 111 to rotate, thereby rotating the worm 112. At this time, the worm wheel 113 moves along the winding direction of the worm track 1121 via the worm groove 1131. Therefore, the worm wheel 113 moves along the extension direction of the worm 112, allowing the worm telescopic assembly 11 to achieve its telescopic function, causing the camera lens 3 to extend and retract along the axis of the lens base 2.

[0043] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the camera lens 3 includes: a lens fixing cover 31 and a camera lens 32. The lens fixing cover 31 is slidably connected to the lens base 2 and is connected to the worm gear 113. The camera lens 32 is fixedly connected to the lens fixing cover 31.

[0044] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the lens fixing cover 31 is also provided with a lens telescopic extension ring 311. The lens telescopic extension ring 311 is mounted on the lens fixing cover 31 and is used to connect the lens fixing cover 31 and the lens base 2. The lens telescopic extension ring 311 ensures that there is no gap between the lens fixing cover 31 and the lens base 2 when the lens fixing cover 31 is extended to its maximum length. In other words, the lens telescopic extension ring 311 can cover the gap between the lens fixing cover 31 and the lens base 2.

[0045] Further, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the worm wheel 113 and the first gear 111 are integrally formed, and the worm 112, the worm wheel 113 and the first gear 111 are all made of plastic. The integrally formed product component structure design can effectively reduce the number of component molds and effectively reduce production costs.

[0046] Further, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the lens base 2, the lens telescopic extension ring 311 and the lens fixing cover 31 are all cylindrical structures, and the lens base 2, the lens telescopic extension ring 311 and the lens fixing cover 31 are connected in sequence.

[0047] Furthermore, the lens base 2 and the gear ring 21 are integrally formed.

[0048] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, a second gear 114 is movably connected to the base fixing cover 1. Second gear 114 is used to rotate the potentiometer 51 on the camera circuit board 5. Second gear 114 meshes with the gear ring 21. When the user rotates the base fixing cover 1, the gear ring 21 simultaneously drives the second gear 114 to rotate, thereby driving the potentiometer 51, achieving the sensing effect of the electronic device.

[0049] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, anti-slip lines 22 are provided on the outer side wall of the lens base 2 .

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, the second aspect of this solution provides a children's camera, including:

[0051] The housing 4 contains a circuit board 5 and a battery 6. The circuit board 5 is provided with a potentiometer 51, a speaker, and a USB socket. The potentiometer 51 is connected to the second gear 114.

[0052] The flip screen assembly 7 is provided on the housing 4 and is used to display the captured image. The flip screen assembly 7 and the battery 6 are both electrically connected to the circuit board 5;

[0053] And the rotatable and telescopic children's camera lens 3 as described in the first aspect, the rotatable and telescopic children's camera lens 3 is fixedly connected to the shell 4 through the base fixing cover 1.

[0054] In summary, the present invention provides a rotatable, retractable lens 3 for a children's camera and a children's camera. The worm 112 of the present invention is linked to the lens. During use, the user rotates the lens base 2, causing the gear ring 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm retractable assembly 11 to retract and retract the camera lens 3, effectively increasing the fun and interactivity of the children's camera. The worm retractable assembly 11, a structural design that manually retracts the camera lens 3, can also effectively reduce manufacturing costs and improve production efficiency.

[0055] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
