[0025] See Figure 1-6As shown in the figure, an easily adjustable solar monitoring tower according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a tower column 1, an adjustment groove 2, a solar panel fixing plate 3, a solar panel 4, a control box 5, a crossbar 6, a movable sleeve 7, another adjustment groove 8, a monitoring camera mounting base 9, a power supply box 10, a heat dissipation vent 11, a dustproof net 12, a bearing seat 13, a threaded rod 14, a first helical gear 15, a rotating shaft 16, a second helical gear 17, and a handwheel 18. The adjustment groove 2 is provided on the outer side of the tower column 1. A solar panel fixing plate 3 is fixedly installed at the top of the tower column 1, and a solar panel 4 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the solar panel fixing plate 3. A control box 5 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the lower end of the tower column 1. The inner side of the adjustment groove 2... A crossbar 6 is installed in a snap-fit configuration. A movable sleeve 7 is sleeved on the outside of the crossbar 6. An adjustment groove 8 is opened on the outside of the crossbar 6. The movable sleeve 7 passes through the adjustment groove 8 with bolts and is locked with nuts. A monitoring camera mounting base 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable sleeve 7. A power supply box 10 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the movable sleeve 7. Two bearing seats 13 are fixedly installed at the top and bottom inside the tower column 1. A threaded rod 14 is installed between the two bearing seats 13. A helical gear 15 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the threaded rod 14. A rotating shaft 16 is installed inside the control box 5 through a bearing rotation. A helical gear 17 is fixedly installed at the inner end of the rotating shaft 16. The helical gear 17 meshes with the helical gear 15.
[0026] The control box 5 has a door hinged on the side away from the tower column 1, and the door is equipped with a lock. A handwheel 18 is fixedly installed on the outer end of the rotating shaft 16, and the handwheel 18 is located inside the control box 5.
[0027] Adjustment slot 2 is a vertical rectangular structure, and its width is the same as that of the crossbar 7. Adjustment slot 2 provides space for the crossbar 7 to move up and down, and the crossbar 7 will not deflect during this movement. This allows for height control and adjustment, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the height of the surveillance camera on the surveillance camera mounting bracket 9.
[0028] The power supply box 10 has a wall-mounted battery installed inside, which is electrically connected to the solar panel 4. The solar panel 4 generates electricity and stores it in the battery. The camera on the monitoring camera mounting bracket 9 is electrically connected to the battery to provide power to the monitoring camera.
[0029] The bottom of the power supply box 10 is provided with a heat dissipation vent 11, and a dustproof mesh 12 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the heat dissipation vent 11. The battery inside the power supply box 10 dissipates heat through the heat dissipation vent 11, and the dustproof mesh 12 prevents dust.
[0030] The threaded rod 14 and the crossbar 6 are connected to each other by a threaded sleeve. The threaded sleeve is embedded and fixedly installed on the inner end of the crossbar 6, and the threaded sleeve and the threaded rod 14 are threadedly connected. By rotating the handwheel 18, the rotating shaft 16 is rotated, which in turn drives the helical gear 17 to rotate. The helical gear 15, which meshes with the helical gear 17, is passively rotated, thereby driving the threaded rod 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the crossbar 7 to move up and down. This facilitates the adjustment of the height of the surveillance camera and makes it easy to inspect and install / remove the camera without having to climb to heights.
[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the crossbar 7 is adjusted to its lowest position, the monitoring camera is fixedly installed on the monitoring camera mounting base 9, and the monitoring camera is electrically connected to the battery. The lateral position of the movable sleeve 7 on the crossbar 7 is adjusted. After adjustment, the movable sleeve 7 passes through the adjustment groove 2 8 with a bolt and is locked with a nut to adjust the height of the crossbar 7. By turning the handwheel 18, the rotating shaft 16 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the helical gear 2 17 to rotate. The helical gear 15 meshing with the helical gear 2 17 is passively rotated, thereby driving the threaded rod 14 to rotate, thereby driving the crossbar 7 to move up and down. This facilitates the adjustment of the height of the monitoring camera and makes it easy to inspect and install / remove the camera. The overall design is highly flexible and easy to operate.
