Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of visual inspection device technology, specifically to a camera bracket with adjustable pitch angle installed on a visual inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, visual inspection devices are widely used on production lines to screen out defective materials and products, preventing defective materials from entering the next process and defective products from entering the market. Common visual inspection devices include at least one camera and its matching light source. During inspection, inspection parameters are set, and inspection is performed on a specific product. Once the camera angle is determined, the captured image of the product is also determined. If the angle of the captured image needs to be adjusted, the angles of the camera and the light source must be adjusted simultaneously. However, current similar products cannot achieve this function, making them inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0008] Preferably, the other end of the rotating plate is provided with a longitudinal guide strip hole, which is arc-shaped; a guide post is provided in the guide strip hole, one end of which is fixedly connected to the second horizontal plate.

[0009] Preferably, the system further includes a camera mounting assembly for mounting a camera, the camera mounting assembly including a camera mounting horizontal plate with one end fixed and vertically connected to the front surface of the mounting plate, and a camera mounting vertical plate disposed at the other end of the camera mounting horizontal plate and perpendicular to it, the camera being fixedly mounted on the camera mounting vertical plate; one end of the light source is fixed and vertically connected to the lower front surface of the mounting plate.

[0010] Technical advantages: The camera bracket of this utility model adopts a rotating component that can rotate relative to the mounting base. The camera and light source can be adjusted in pitch angle relative to the mounting base by rotating the component. When the pitch angle needs to be adjusted, the connecting piece is loosened, and after the adjustment is completed, the connecting piece is locked to fix the rotating component.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, this embodiment of the present invention provides a camera bracket with an adjustable pitch angle, including a vertical plate 1, a base 2 disposed at its lower end, a mounting seat 3 disposed on one surface of the vertical plate and with an adjustable mounting height, a camera 4, and a light source 5, and also includes a rotating component 6 that can rotate relative to the mounting seat. The camera and light source are connected to the mounting seat 3 through the rotating component, and the angles of the camera and light source can be adjusted, that is, the pitch angle of the camera 4 can be adjusted as needed. The mounting seat 3 used in this embodiment can adjust the mounting height along a guide rail disposed on one surface of the vertical plate, thereby adjusting the height of the camera 4 and the light source 5. This structure is commonly used in the applicant's previous patent documents and will not be described in detail here.

[0019] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the rotating assembly 6 includes a rotating plate 601 that can rotate relative to the mounting base 3, and a mounting plate 602 whose back is fixed to and vertically connected to one end of the rotating plate; the camera 4 and the light source 5 are both fixedly connected to the mounting plate, and the light source is located below the camera.

[0020] For mounting the rotating assembly 6, a mounting assembly 7 is also included, which includes a first horizontal plate 701 fixedly connected to the front surface of the mounting base 3, and a second horizontal plate 702 fixed at one end to and perpendicularly connected to the back of one end of the first horizontal plate, the second horizontal plate being located on one side of the mounting base.

[0021] During assembly, the surfaces of the rotating plate 601 and the second horizontal plate 702 are in contact and connected by a connector 8. When the connector is tightened, the rotating plate is fixed to the second horizontal plate. When the connector is loosened, the rotating plate can rotate relative to the second horizontal plate, and the mounting plate 602 rotates accordingly. The connector 8 here includes, but is not limited to, screws. When screws are used, the installation angle of the rotating plate needs to be adjusted. Loosening the screws allows for adjustment, and after adjustment, tightening the screws again achieves a fixed connection between the rotating plate and the second horizontal plate.

[0022] In order to make the rotating plate 601 rotate smoothly relative to the second horizontal plate 702, the other end of the rotating plate 601 is provided with a longitudinal guide strip hole 601a, which is arc-shaped; a guide post 9 is provided in the guide strip hole, one end of which is fixedly connected to the second horizontal plate 702.

[0023] In this embodiment, in order to install the camera 4, a camera mounting assembly 10 for mounting the camera is also included. The camera mounting assembly includes a camera mounting horizontal plate 1001 with one end fixed and vertically connected to the front surface of the mounting plate 602, and a camera mounting vertical plate 1002 disposed at the other end of the camera mounting horizontal plate and perpendicular to it. The camera 4 is fixed on the camera mounting vertical plate. One end of the light source 5 is fixed and vertically connected to the lower front surface of the mounting plate 602.

[0024] In summary, the camera bracket uses a rotating component 6 that can rotate relative to the mounting base 3. The camera 4 and the light source 5 can be adjusted for tilt angle relative to the mounting base 3 by rotating the component 6. That is, when the tilt angle needs to be adjusted, the connecting piece 8 is loosened, and after the adjustment is completed, the connecting piece 8 is locked to fix the rotating component 6. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the camera bracket of this utility model is convenient for simultaneously adjusting the tilt angle of the camera 4 and the light source 5 to meet more needs and is easy to use.

For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components; "set at" should be understood as "installed at" or "set at", including installation methods such as fixed installation and movable installation.

[0026] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this utility model, but do not limit the patent scope of this utility model.
