[0025] In order to enable personnel in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the specific embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0026] As Figure 1A camera device 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which comprises a rotating seat 11, a cover assembly 12, a lens module 13 and a base 14. The cover assembly 12 is mounted on the rotating seat 11, and a cavity 15 is formed between the cover assembly 12 and the rotating seat 11. The lens module 13 is arranged in the cavity 15 and fixed on the rotating seat 11. The base 14 is mounted on a side of the rotating seat 11 away from the cover assembly 12.

[0027] The rotating seat 11 has a rotation axis 101. The rotating seat 11 is configured to rotate relative to the base 14 around the rotation axis 101 to adjust a shooting angle of the lens module 13. The base 14 has a mounting hole 141 penetrating through two side surfaces thereof, and an axis of the mounting hole 141 coincides with the rotation axis 101.

[0028] For example, the camera device 100 is a half-sphere camera device. At least part of the cover assembly 12 is light-transmissive, so that the lens module 13 can acquire image information of the outside through the cover assembly 12. In addition, the cover assembly 12 can also protect the lens module 13.

[0029] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the camera device 100 further comprises a circuit board 16 and a wire harness 17. The circuit board 16 is electrically connected with the lens module 13, and can receive and process image information acquired by the lens module 13. The wire harness 17 is connected with the circuit board 16, and the wire harness 17 includes but is not limited to a data transmission line and a power supply line. The rotating seat 11 is provided with a wire harness through hole 111 for the wire harness 17 to pass through. The wire harness 17 passes through the wire harness through hole 111 and the mounting hole 141 to be connected with a monitoring device in the outside, so that the monitoring device in the outside can view image information acquired by the camera 131. The monitoring device in the outside includes but is not limited to a fixed terminal, a mobile terminal, a server, etc.

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 In some embodiments, the camera device 100 further comprises a sealing ring 18 made of rubber, which is located at a connection between the cover assembly 12 and the rotating seat 11, so as to improve the sealing performance of the cavity 15.

[0031] As shown in Figure 2As shown, the camera 100 further comprises a fixed pressing plate 19 and an elastic gasket 21, both of which are located on the side of the base 14 away from the rotating seat 11, wherein the elastic gasket 21 is annular, arranged on the outer edge of the mounting hole 141, and abuts against the end face of the side of the base 14 away from the rotating seat 11, and the fixed pressing plate 19 is installed on the side of the elastic gasket 21 away from the end face and abuts against the elastic gasket 21, i.e. the elastic gasket 21 is arranged between the base 14 and the fixed pressing plate 19, and the two end faces of the elastic gasket 21 abut against the base 14 and the fixed pressing plate 19, respectively. The fastener 22 penetrates through the fixed pressing plate 19 and the mounting hole 141 to connect the fixed pressing plate 19 and the rotating seat 11. Through the above arrangement, the rotating seat 11 can be arbitrarily rotated relative to the base 14 in the horizontal direction, so that the camera 100 can realize free adjustment of the horizontal direction angle.

[0032] For example, the fixed pressing plate 19 is a metal pressing plate, and the fixed pressing plate 19 is provided with a fixed hole 191 for the fastener 22 to penetrate. Since the elastic gasket 21 has compression characteristics in the axial direction of the mounting hole 141, when the fastener 22 penetrates through the fixed hole 191 and the mounting hole 141 to fixedly connect the fixed pressing plate 19 and the rotating seat 11, the fixed pressing plate 19 will compress the elastic gasket 21 in the axial direction of the mounting hole 141, so that the elastic gasket 21 can exert an elastic force on the fixed pressing plate 19. When the rotating seat 11 is horizontally rotated relative to the base 14, due to the elastic force exerted by the elastic gasket 21 on the fixed pressing plate 19, the camera 100 has a damping feeling during the horizontal direction angle adjustment, and when the camera 100 is rotated to a set angle, the camera 100 is prevented from deviating in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the stability of the camera 100. In addition, based on the damping feeling brought by the elastic gasket 21, better feedback can be obtained when the camera 100 is adjusted in the horizontal direction.

[0033] In some embodiments, the elastic gasket 21 is a sheet metal member made of any of the following materials: cold steel, galvanized sheet, manganese steel. Since the above-mentioned materials have high elasticity and large elastic limit, the elastic gasket 21 made of the above-mentioned materials can stably exert an elastic force on the fixed pressing plate 19 during use, thereby improving the reliability of the elastic gasket 21.

[0034] In some embodiments, the number of fasteners 22 is multiple, and the multiple fasteners 22 are distributed around the axis of the mounting hole 141, and the number of fixed holes 191 on the fixed pressing plate 19 is consistent with the number of fasteners 22, thereby improving the connection stability between the fixed pressing plate 19 and the rotating seat 11.

[0035] In some embodiments, the fixed pressing plate 19 comprises at least one limiting portion 192, and the rotating seat 11 is provided with a limiting rib 112 on one side thereof facing the base 14, the limiting rib 112 is configured to pass through the mounting hole 141 and be embedded in the limiting portion 192.

[0036] For example, when the number of limiting portions 192 is set to be multiple, the limiting portions 192 are distributed around the axis of the mounting hole 141. The limiting portion 192 is configured as a through hole formed on the fixed pressing plate 19, and the shape of the through hole includes but is not limited to polygon, circle, special shape, etc., and the shape of the limiting portion 192 is not limited in the present application. The number of limiting ribs 112 is consistent with the number of limiting portions 192, and the limiting rib 112 is a protrusion formed on the rotating seat 11 and extending towards the base 14, and the shape of the protrusion is consistent with the shape of the limiting portion 192. When the fixed pressing plate 19 is connected with the rotating seat 11, the limiting rib 112 passes through the mounting hole 141 and is embedded in the limiting portion 192, so that the rotating seat 11 can drive the fixed pressing plate 19 to rotate when rotating, and the relative displacement between the rotating seat 11 and the fixed pressing plate 19 is avoided.

[0037] As shown in FIGS. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the base 14 has a guide groove 142 recessed on one side thereof away from the rotating seat 11, the guide groove 142 is configured in a ring shape and is arranged around the mounting hole 141, and the rotating seat 11 has a guide rib 113 embedded in the guide groove 142.

[0038] For example, the number of guide grooves 142 is consistent with the number of guide ribs 113. For example, the guide groove 142 comprises a first guide groove 1421 and a second guide groove 1422, the first guide groove 1421 surrounds the second guide groove 1422, and the centers of the first guide groove 1421 and the second guide groove 1422 are consistent with the axis of the mounting hole 141. The guide rib 113 comprises a first guide rib 1131 and a second guide rib 1132, the first guide rib 1131 is configured as a protrusion extending towards the base 14, and the first guide rib 1131 is arranged in a ring shape around the axis of the mounting hole 141. The second guide rib 1132 is a plurality of protrusions extending towards the base 14 in a cylindrical shape, and the plurality of second guide ribs 1132 are arranged around the axis of the mounting hole 141. When the base 14 is connected with the rotating seat 11, the first guide rib 1131 can be embedded in the first guide groove 1421, and the second guide rib 1132 can be embedded in the second guide groove 1422. Through the above arrangement, the rotating seat 11 is limited in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the rotation stability of the rotating seat 11.

[0039] In some embodiments, the base 14 has an adjusting hole 143 extending in the horizontal direction, two ends of the adjusting hole 143 are respectively communicated with the guide slot 142 and the outside, and the camera 100 further comprises a first locking member 23 penetrating through the adjusting hole 143, the first locking member 23 is configured to be movable along the axis direction of the adjusting hole 143 and abuts against the guide rib 113.

[0040] For example, when the number of the guide slots 142 is plural, the two ends of the adjusting hole 143 are respectively communicated with the outermost guide slot 142 and the outside. The first locking member 23 is a bolt, and the inner wall of the adjusting hole 143 is provided with threads matched with the bolt. During the adjustment of the horizontal direction angle of the camera 100, the first locking member 23 is separated from the guide rib 113 by the action of the locking tool on the first locking member 23, and the rotating seat 11 can rotate relative to the base 14. When the horizontal direction angle of the camera 100 meets the requirement, the first locking member 23 is abutted against the guide rib 113 by the action of the locking tool on the first locking member 23, and the first locking member 23 exerts a pressure on the guide rib 113 to limit the rotation of the rotating seat 11, thereby realizing the fixation of the horizontal direction angle of the camera 100.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 3 In some embodiments, the rotating seat 11 has a first mounting passage 114 through which the first mounting bolt 24 penetrates, the axis of the first mounting passage 114 is parallel to the rotation axis 101 of the rotating seat 11, and the first mounting bolt 24 is configured to penetrate through the first mounting passage 114 from the rotating seat 11 to the cover assembly 12 to fasten and connect the rotating seat 11 and the cover assembly 12.

[0042] For example, the number of the first mounting passages 114 is plural, and the plural first mounting passages 114 are distributed around the axis of the mounting hole 141.

[0043] Further, the base 14 has a first fixing hole 144 penetrating through the opposite side surfaces thereof, the first fixing hole 144 is distributed around the axis of the mounting hole 141, and the first fixing hole 144 is configured to coincide with the axis of the first mounting passage 114 when the rotating seat 11 rotates to the first set position.

[0044] For example, a first identification portion 115 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating base 11, and a second identification portion 145 is provided on the outer wall of the base 14. During the rotation of the rotating base 11 relative to the base 14, if the first identification portion 115 and the second identification portion 145 are aligned along the direction of the rotation axis 101, it indicates that the rotating base 11 has rotated to the first set position. It should be noted that the first identification portion 115 and the second identification portion 145 include but are not limited to color markings, graphic markings, text markings, etc., and this application does not specifically limit the form of the first identification portion 115 and the second identification portion 145.

[0045] If it is necessary to remove the cover assembly 12, the rotating base 11 is rotated so that the first identification portion 115 is aligned with the second identification portion 145. The locking tool then passes through the first fixing hole 144 and the first mounting channel 114 and acts on the first mounting bolt 24 to separate or connect the rotating base 11 to the cover assembly 12. When the rotating base 11 is not in the first set position, the first mounting channel 114 is covered by the base 14, thereby preventing the cover assembly 12 from being removed, thereby improving the safety of the camera device 100.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating base 11 has a second mounting channel 116 through which the second mounting bolt 25 can pass, and the cover assembly 12 has a third mounting channel 121 through which the second mounting bolt 25 can pass, and the axis of the second mounting channel 116 coincides with the axis of the third mounting channel 121. When the rotating base 11 rotates to the second set position, the axis of the first fixing hole 144 coincides with the axis of the second mounting channel 116. The second mounting bolt 25 is configured so that when the rotating base 11 rotates to the second set position, it can pass through the third mounting channel 121, the second mounting channel 116, and the first fixing hole 144 in the direction from the cover assembly 12 to the base 14, and be fastened to the bearing surface 400 to fix the camera device 100 on the bearing surface 400.

[0047] For example, a third identification portion 146 is further provided on the outer wall of the base 14. When the rotating base 11 rotates relative to the base 14, if the first identification portion 115 and the third identification portion 146 are aligned along the direction of the rotation axis 101, it indicates that the rotating base 11 has rotated to the second set position. The third identification portion 146 does not overlap with the second identification portion 145.

[0048] If the camera 100 needs to be disassembled, the rotating seat 11 is rotated so that the first mark 115 is aligned with the third mark 146, and a locking tool is inserted through the third mounting channel 121, the second mounting channel 116 and the first fixing hole 144 in sequence and acts on the second mounting bolt 25 to connect or separate the camera 100 from the bearing surface 400. When the rotating seat 11 is not in the second set position, the second mounting bolt 25 is covered by the rotating seat 11, thereby preventing the camera 100 from being disassembled, thereby improving the safety of the camera 100.

[0049] In the above arrangement, the rotating seat 11 and the cover assembly 12 are connected as a whole by the first mounting bolt 22, so that the rotating seat 11 and the cover assembly 12 do not need to be separated during disassembly of the camera 100, thereby ensuring the air tightness of the inside of the camera 100. In addition, it can also avoid damage to the lens module 13 or dust and foreign matter falling into the inside of the camera 100 to affect its normal use when the cover assembly 12 is disassembled.

[0050] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the rotating seat 11 is provided with a first mounting channel 114, and the base 14 is provided with a second mounting channel 116. When the rotating seat 11 is rotated to a set position, the axis of the first mounting channel 114 is aligned with the axis of the second mounting channel 116. If the rotating seat 11 is not in the set position, the first mounting channel 114 is covered by the base 14, thereby improving the safety of the camera 100. Figure 4 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the rotating seat 11 is provided with a first mounting channel 114, and the base 14 is provided with a second mounting channel 116. When the rotating seat 11 is rotated to a set position, the axis of the first mounting channel 114 is aligned with the axis of the second mounting channel 116. If the rotating seat 11 is not in the set position, the first mounting channel 114 is covered by the base 14, thereby improving the safety of the camera 100.

[0051] Figure 5 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the camera 100 further comprises a swing arm gear 26 and an adjusting gear 27, both of which are installed in the chamber 15.

The adjusting gear 27 has an inner cavity 271 for insertion of an adjusting tool. The rotating seat 11 or the cover assembly 12 has a through hole 117 which communicates the inner cavity 271 with the outside, and at least part of the adjusting gear 27 is located in the through hole 117. Figure 6 Exemplarily, the outer peripheral wall of the inner cavity 271 is polygonal, and the adjusting tool can be inserted into the inner cavity 271 of the adjusting gear 27 through the through hole 117, thereby driving the adjusting gear 27 to rotate.

[0052] Exemplarily, when the pitch angle of the lens module 13 needs to be adjusted, the adjusting tool is inserted into the inner cavity 271, and the adjusting tool is rotated to drive the adjusting gear 27 to rotate, thereby driving the swing arm gear 26 to rotate to adjust the pitch angle of the lens module 13.

[0053] Exemplarily, when the pitch angle of the lens module 13 needs to be adjusted, the adjusting tool is inserted into the inner cavity 271, and the adjusting tool is rotated to drive the adjusting gear 27 to rotate, thereby driving the swing arm gear 26 to rotate to adjust the pitch angle of the lens module 13.​

[0054] In some embodiments, the camera 100 further comprises a bracket 28 and a second locking member 29 passing through the inner cavity 271, the bracket 28 is mounted on the rotating seat 11 and located in the cavity 15, the swing arm gear 26 is mounted on the bracket 28, and the second locking member 29 passes through the adjusting gear 27 and the swing arm gear 26 and is fastened to the bracket 28; the second locking member 29 is configured to be movable along the axial direction of the adjusting gear 27 to abut or separate the adjusting gear 27, the swing arm gear 26 and the bracket 28. It should be noted that the second locking member 29 is in clearance fit with the adjusting gear 27 and the swing arm gear 26.

[0055] Exemplarily, under the action of the second locking member 29, the adjusting gear 27, the swing arm gear 26 and the bracket 28 abut each other along the axial direction of the adjusting gear 27, and the friction force applied by the adjusting gear 27 to the swing arm gear 26 can limit the rotation of the swing arm gear 26, so as to fix the pitch angle of the lens module 13. Alternatively, the second locking member 29 is loosened to separate the adjusting gear 27, the swing arm gear 26 and the bracket 28, so as to adjust the pitch angle of the lens module 13.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the camera 100 further comprises a sealing cover 31 for covering the through hole 117 to avoid dust and foreign matters from entering the inside of the camera 100.
