[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0050] The present invention provides a camera cleaning device. Figures 1 to 8 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of a camera cleaning device, the camera cleaning device comprises: a housing 1 and an air jet device 3;
[0051] The housing 1 is provided with a storage cavity for installing the camera 2;
[0052] The air injection device 3 includes an air injection head 31 and an air pipe 32;
[0053] The upper end surface of the housing 1 is provided with an opening for the lens of the camera 2 to protrude;
[0054] The air jet head 31 is provided on one side of the probe port and is used to spray air toward the lens of the camera 2;
[0055] One end of the air pipe 32 is connected to the air nozzle 31, and the other end is used to communicate with the air source.
[0056] It should be noted that the gas ejected by the nozzle 31 of the present application can eject gas of different pressures according to the degree of raindrops or dust adhering to the lens of the camera 2, thereby achieving different degrees of cleaning.
[0057] Preferably, the air source of the present application is provided by a fan or an air pump, and those skilled in the art can select one according to their needs.
[0058] The embodiment of the present invention provides a housing 1 with a storage cavity for mounting a camera 2, and an upper end surface of the housing 1 with an outlet for the lens of the camera 2 to extend therethrough. A nozzle 31 of an air jet device 3 is positioned on one side of the outlet, and air is ejected toward the lens of the camera 2 through the nozzle 31. One end of an air pipe 32 is connected to the nozzle 31, and the other end is connected to an air source. With the disclosed camera cleaning device, when raindrops or dust adhere to the lens of the camera 2, air can be supplied from the air source to the nozzle 32, and then the nozzle 31 can be used to purge the lens of the camera 2, removing raindrops or dust adhering to the lens, thereby ensuring that the lens of the camera 2 is clean.
[0059] Specifically, the air nozzles of the air jet head 31 are distributed in a fan shape.
[0060] It should be noted that the air nozzles of the air nozzle 31 are distributed in a fan shape, so that when the air nozzles spray gas, not only the flow rate and pressure of the gas can be guaranteed, but also the lens of the entire camera 2 can be blown to quickly remove raindrops or flying dust.
[0061] Furthermore, the camera cleaning device further includes: a first power mechanism 41;
[0062] The upper end surface of the housing 1 is provided with a first receiving groove 11 for receiving the spray head 31;
[0063] The tail of the nozzle 31 is rotatably disposed in the first receiving groove 11 via the first rotating shaft 42;
[0064] The first power mechanism 41 is in transmission connection with the first rotating shaft 42 to drive the nozzle head 31 to rotate around the tail of the nozzle head, so that the nozzle head 31 switches between the first storage state and the first raising state. The nozzle head 31 is aligned with the lens of the camera 2 in the first raising state.
[0065] It should be noted that by opening a first receiving groove 11 for receiving the air jet head 31 on the upper end surface of the shell 1, and rotatably arranging the tail of the air jet head 31 in the first receiving groove 11 through the rotating shaft, and drivingly connecting the first power mechanism 41 and the first rotating shaft 42 to drive the air jet head 31 to rotate around the tail of the air jet head, so that the air jet head 31 switches between the first receiving state and the first lifting state, and the air jet head 31 is aligned with the lens of the camera 2 in the first lifting state, and then the air jet head 31 is received in the first receiving groove 11 when the lens of the camera 2 does not need to be cleaned, avoiding external impurities from entering the air jet head 31 to cause blockage, and improving the appearance of the shell 1, and not affecting the camera view. When the lens of the camera 2 needs to be cleaned, the air jet head 31 can be rotated by the first power mechanism 41 to make the head of the air jet head 31 lift up and align with the lens of the camera 2, and then the air jet head 31 is provided with gas by the gas source to blow the lens of the camera 2.
[0066] It should be further noted that when the head of the air jet head 31 is lifted up, the air outlet direction of the air jet head 31 can be tangent to the lens of the camera 2.
[0067] Further, the camera cleaning device further comprises a water spraying device 5 for spraying water to the lens of the camera 2 and a wiping device 6 for wiping the lens of the camera 2.
[0068] The water spraying device 5 comprises a water spraying head 51, a water pipe 52 and a water pump 53.
[0069] The water spraying head 51 is arranged on one side of the outlet, and the water spraying head 51 is used for spraying water to the lens of the camera 2.
[0070] One end of the water pipe 52 is in communication with the water spraying head 51, and the other end is in communication with the water pump 53.
[0071] It should be noted that the water spraying head 51 is arranged on one side of the outlet, and the water spraying head 51 sprays water to the lens of the camera 2, and one end of the water pipe 52 is in communication with the water spraying head 51, and the other end is in communication with the water pump 53, and then the water pump 53 can provide cleaning liquid for cleaning to the water spraying head 51.
[0072] It should be further noted that by arranging the water spraying device 5 for spraying water to the lens of the camera 2 and the wiping device 6 for wiping the lens of the camera 2, when the air jet device 3 cannot clean the raindrops or dust adhered to the camera 2, the water spraying device 5 can be used to spray water to the lens of the camera 2, and then the wiping device 6 can be used to wipe the lens of the camera 2.
[0073] It is worth noting that in the specific implementation process, the working of the wiping device 6, the water spraying device 5 and the air jet device 3 can be adjusted according to the needs.
[0074] For ease of understanding, the following example is taken as an example where the camera 2 is installed outside the vehicle.
[0075] For example, in method 1, when the vehicle suddenly enters a dusty environment, the jet device 3 may be controlled to blow the camera 2 to remove some dust, and then the erasing device 6 may be controlled to erase the camera 2 .
[0076] Method 2: When the vehicle is driving on a rainy day and rainwater adheres to the lens of the camera 2, the erasing device 6 can be controlled to erase the camera 2 first. After clearing a large amount of rainwater, the jet device 3 can be controlled to blow away the small water droplets on the lens of the camera 2.
[0077] Method 3: When the vehicle is driving on a muddy road and mud stains are attached to the lens of camera 2, the water spray device 5 can be controlled to start first, then the jet device 3 can be controlled to purge the camera 2, and then the erasing device 6 can be controlled to erase the camera 2, and finally the jet device 3 can be controlled to purge the small water droplets on the lens of camera 2.
[0078] Furthermore, the water nozzles of the water spray head 51 are distributed in a fan shape.
[0079] It should be noted that the water nozzles of the water spray head 51 are distributed in a fan shape, so that when the water nozzles spray out the cleaning liquid, not only the flow rate and pressure of the cleaning liquid can be guaranteed, but also the lens of the entire camera 2 can be washed to quickly remove raindrops or flying dust.
[0080] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted camera cleaning device further includes: a second power mechanism 71;
[0081] The upper end surface of the housing 1 is provided with a second receiving groove 12 for receiving the water spray head 51;
[0082] The tail of the water spray head 51 is rotatably disposed in the second receiving groove 12 via the second rotating shaft 72;
[0083] The second power mechanism 71 is in transmission connection with the second rotating shaft 72 to drive the water spray head 51 to rotate around the tail of the water spray head 51 so that the water spray head 51 switches between the second storage state and the second raising state, and the spray head 31 is aligned with the lens of the camera 2 in the second raising state.
[0084] It should be noted that by setting a second power mechanism 71 and opening a second receiving groove 12 for receiving the water spray head 51 on the upper end surface of the shell 1, the tail of the water spray head 51 can be rotatably set in the second receiving groove 12 through a rotating shaft, and the second power mechanism 71 is transmission-connected with the second rotating shaft 72 to drive the water spray head 51 to rotate around the tail of the water spray head 51, so that the water spray head 51 switches between the second receiving state and the second raising state. The jet head 31 is aimed at the lens of the camera 2 in the second raising state, and then when the water spray device 5 is not needed to clean the camera 2, the water spray head 51 is stored in the second receiving groove 12 to prevent external impurities from entering the jet head 31 and causing blockage, and further improve the aesthetics of the shell 1. When the lens of the camera 2 needs to be cleaned, the water spray head 51 can be driven to rotate by the second power mechanism 71, so that the head of the water spray head 51 is lifted up and aimed at the lens of the camera 2, and then the water pump 53 provides cleaning fluid to the jet head 31 to clean the lens of the camera 2.
[0085] It should also be noted that when the head of the water spray head 51 is lifted upward, the water outlet direction of the water spray head 51 can be tangent to the lens of the camera 2.

The fourth power mechanism 62 drives the erasing member 63 to wipe the lens of the camera 2 synchronously through the second elastic member 65 and the third power mechanism 61 through the first elastic member 64.
[0094] It should be noted that by providing a rubber strip 66 on the side of the erasing member 63 that contacts the camera 2, and providing the rubber strip 66 with an arc-shaped structure that cooperates with the lens of the camera 2, the rubber strip 66 can be in close contact with the lens of the camera 2, thereby better scraping off rain and / or dust from the lens of the camera 2.
