Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a hunting camera, which includes a camera body 1, a solar panel 2, and a sealing element 3. The camera body 1 includes an upper shell 11 and a lower shell 12, which are fixedly closed. The sealing element 3 seals the gap 101 before the upper shell 11 and lower shell 12 are closed, so that the upper shell 11 and lower shell 12 form a sealed cavity after they are closed together, protecting the components inside the camera body. This allows the hunting camera to be used in both rainy and sunny weather, without limiting its use in any environment. The fixed closure of the upper shell 11 and lower shell 12 is for better waterproofing and to prevent users from disassembling it themselves. It also protects the internal components and prevents the camera from being unable to be restored to the sealed cavity after disassembly, which could lead to problems in later use. Instead of blaming the seller for malfunctions, the solar panel 2 is located at the top of the upper housing 11 or the lower housing 12, and is integrated with the upper housing 11 or the lower housing 12. This makes the hunting camera more compact and easier for users to carry, and also facilitates the assembly and installation of the solar panel. In other words, by incorporating the solar panel, the solar panel converts light energy into electrical energy to power the hunting camera, reducing the possibility of insufficient power supply. This eliminates the need to frequently disassemble the hunting camera to replace batteries or recharge it. Furthermore, the integrated design of the solar panel with the upper or lower housing makes the hunting camera more compact and easier for users to carry. After the upper and lower housings are closed, the gap between them is sealed with a sealing ring, allowing the hunting camera to be used in various environmental conditions.

[0029] In this embodiment, the sealing element 3 is a sealing ring made of rubber material. An installation groove 121 is provided on the side wall inside the upper housing 11 or the lower housing 12. The installation groove 121 is arranged around the opening of the upper housing 11 or the lower housing 12. The sealing ring is installed in the installation groove 121 and is interference-fitted with the four sides of the installation groove. A snap-fit ​​groove 31 is provided on the side of the sealing ring facing the installation groove 121. The snap-fit ​​groove 31 is used to snap onto the side wall of the installation groove 121 away from the camera body 1, making the installation of the sealing ring more stable. Compared with the prior art, directly installing the sealing ring in the installation groove provides better sealing performance.

[0030] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a first fixing member 4. A first mounting post 111 is provided at the corner inside the upper housing 11. A first mounting hole 1111 is provided at the end of the first mounting post 111 facing the lower housing 12. A second mounting post 122 corresponding to the first mounting post 111 is provided inside the lower housing 12. A second mounting hole 1221 is provided at the end of the second mounting post 122 facing the upper housing 12. A connecting member 32 is provided on the sealing ring corresponding to the first mounting post 111 and the second mounting post 122. A third mounting hole 321 corresponding to the first mounting hole 1111 and the second mounting hole 1221 is provided on the connecting member 32. The first fixing member 4 passes through the second mounting hole 1221, the third mounting hole 321 and the first mounting hole 1111 in sequence, so that the lower housing 12 and the sealing ring are fixed on the upper housing 11. This structure is mainly to make the installation of the upper housing, the lower housing and the sealing ring more stable and firm, and to facilitate assembly at the factory through a simple structure. The first fixing member can be a bolt, screw or rivet or other parts.

[0031] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a storage battery 5. The two ends of the inner side of the upper housing 11 are provided with brackets 112. The two ends of the storage battery 5 are respectively placed on the two brackets 112. Since the brackets only need to support the two ends of the storage battery, the brackets only need to support the storage battery. Because the battery occupies a large space, if the space occupied by the battery is not designed reasonably, the overall size of the hunting camera will be large, making the hunting camera look bulky and reducing the user experience. For example, setting a large groove or a large mounting bracket to place the storage battery will increase the size of the hunting camera. However, the bracket in this embodiment occupies a small area and is convenient for battery installation, thus saving the installation space in the sealed cavity and making the installation in the sealed space more compact, thereby reducing the size of the hunting camera.

[0032] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a control circuit board 6. The solar energy device 2 and the storage battery 5 are both electrically connected to the control circuit board 6. The control circuit board 6 is located inside a sealed cavity. The control circuit board 6 is located below the storage battery 5 and away from the lower housing 12. The parts installed inside the sealed cavity are arranged in a way that makes the hunting camera more compact and easier to carry.

[0033] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a sensor 71, multiple function buttons 72, a lens assembly 73, a light assembly 74, a display screen 75, and an indicator light 76. The sensor 71, multiple function buttons 72, lens assembly 73, light assembly 74, display screen 75, and indicator light 76 are all located on the front 102 of the camera body 1. The sensor 71, lens assembly 73, and display screen 75 are arranged sequentially from the top of the camera body 1 towards the bottom. Positioning the sensor at the highest point of the camera allows for better detection of moving objects. Positioning the lens in the middle makes the overall appearance of the hunting camera more harmonious and neat. Positioning the display screen at the bottom is for overall... The layout is neater, more layered, and less cluttered. Multiple function buttons 72 are distributed on both sides of the sensor 71, and the light assembly 74 is distributed on both sides of the lens assembly 73 for easy supplementary lighting when shooting with the lens. The indicator light 76 is located on one side of the display screen. The indicator light is obvious and makes it easy for users to identify the status of the hunting camera. The indicator light can show when file transfer is in progress, when the camera is turned on, or when a card is inserted and connected. Of course, the hunting camera may not have a display screen and may only have indicator lights. Multiple indicator lights can be set to show signal connection, camera status after being turned on, card status, and antenna signal strength.

[0034] In this embodiment, the control circuit board 6 includes a first circuit board 61 and a second circuit board 62. The first circuit board 61 and the second circuit board 62 are stacked and electrically connected. The second circuit board 62 has an opening 621. One end of the lens assembly 73 is mounted on the first circuit board 61, and the other end of the lens assembly passes through the opening 621 and is mounted on the front 101 of the camera body 1. Function buttons 72, lens assembly 73, light assembly 74, display screen 75 and indicator lights 76 are connected to the first circuit board 61. The first circuit board 61 is mainly used for processing photographic images, and the second circuit board 62 is mainly used for processing other functions.

[0035] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a charging interface 8, which is connected to the first circuit board 61 and is located on the side of the camera body 1. The charging interface is provided with a sealing cover, which is not marked in this figure and is a conventional setting, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0036] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes a microphone 77, which is electrically connected to the first circuit board 61. The microphone 77 is located on the front of the camera body 1. The microphone mainly collects sound. How the microphone collects sound is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] In this embodiment, the back 103 of the camera body 1 is provided with an anti-slip part 9, which is used to create friction between the camera and the platform when the hunting camera is tied to a platform, so that the hunting camera can be hung on the platform for a long time and prevent the hunting camera from falling.

[0038] In this embodiment, the anti-slip component 9 includes a first anti-slip component 91 and a second anti-slip component 92. The first anti-slip component 91 is located near the top of the camera body 1 and on both sides of the back 103 of the camera body. The second anti-slip component 92 is located near the bottom of the camera body 1 and on both sides of the back 103 of the camera body. The second anti-slip component 92 has a through hole 921, through which a second fixing member passes to fix the camera body 1 to the platform. The second fixing member can be a strap, a wire, or an elastic band, etc., which can fix the hunting camera to the platform through the through hole. The through hole is provided to prevent the hunting camera from falling and being damaged when it is not stable on the platform. If there is no through hole, and a strap is used directly, the hunting camera is easy to fall and be damaged if the strap is not tightened. This structure makes the anti-slip performance better and the hunting camera more stable when installed.

[0039] In this embodiment, both the first anti-slip component 91 and the second anti-slip component 92 include a protrusion 901 and a serration 902. The protrusion 901 is fixedly disposed on the back of the camera body 1, and the serration 902 is disposed on the protrusion 901 and on one side away from the camera body 1. The serration 902 is used to abut against the platform. The through hole 921 is disposed on the protrusion 901. The protrusion mainly increases the height of the back of the camera because the platform may be uneven and needs a support point. The protrusion can provide support and prevent damage and scratches to the back of the hunting camera. The serration 902 mainly increases the friction with the platform and prevents the hunting camera from falling off the platform due to slipperiness.

[0040] In this embodiment, the top surface 201 of the solar energy device 2 is tilted relative to the camera body 1 to better absorb sunlight.

[0041] In this embodiment, a mounting base 13 is provided at the bottom of the back 103 of the camera body 1. A fourth mounting hole 131 is provided on the side of the mounting base 13 near the bottom of the camera body. The fourth mounting hole 131 is used for mounting a third fastener so that the third fastener fixes the camera body 1 to the platform. That is, by setting the mounting base on the back 103 of the camera body 1, the hunting camera can be placed vertically on the platform where the hunting camera can be mounted by the third fastener. The reason why the mounting base 13 is not set at the bottom of the camera body or a fourth mounting hole is because it is inconvenient for the user to install it, since the third fastener can be long or short. Therefore, setting the mounting base 13 on the back 103 of the camera body 1 is convenient for the user to install it.

[0042] In this embodiment, a fifth mounting hole 14 is provided at the top of the back 103 of the camera body 1. The fifth mounting hole 14 is used for the installation of the fourth fastener so that the fourth fastener fixes the camera body 1 to the platform, providing an additional option for fixing the hunting camera for future needs.

[0043] In this embodiment, the hunting camera also includes an antenna 10, which is disposed on one side of the camera body 1 and electrically connected to the control circuit board 6. When the connection between the receiver and the hunting camera is weak, the antenna is used to receive or amplify the signal. The antenna can intercept radio waves, making the noise during the recording of the hunting camera less and smaller, thus improving the user experience. How the antenna receives the signal is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0044] In summary, the hunting camera in this embodiment is compact, portable, waterproof, and suitable for various environments. It also features user-friendly buttons, a display screen, lights, indicator lights, and more, enhancing the user experience.

[0045] It should be understood that the application of this utility model is not limited to the examples above.
