Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera technology, and in particular to a camera adjustment platform. Background Technology
[0002] In engineering surveying, dual-camera setups are often used, with both cameras operating simultaneously. By comparing and verifying the results, the accuracy and reliability of measurements are improved. This configuration helps reduce errors and ensures the precision of measurement results. Furthermore, using dual cameras allows for simultaneous data acquisition, ensuring that both cameras measure under the same conditions at the same time, thereby enhancing data consistency and comparability. This is particularly important for engineering surveys requiring high-precision comparisons.
[0003] Existing dual-camera adjustment platforms adjust the distance using a sliding groove and bolts on the top of the platform. However, each adjustment requires the use of matching tools to tighten or loosen the bolts. If the bolts are not tightened enough or are only partially tightened, the preload is insufficient, and the joints do not have enough clamping force to hold the parts together. This can cause the two parts to slide laterally, increasing the workload of the operator and affecting their work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. Therefore, one objective of this invention is to propose a camera adjustment platform, thereby enabling quick and convenient adjustment and fixation of the position of an industrial camera, reducing the workload of operators and increasing work efficiency.
[0005] The camera adjustment platform proposed in this utility model includes an adjustment platform and a ball joint. Movable plates are provided at both the left and right ends of the top of the adjustment platform. Slide grooves are formed through both ends of the top of the adjustment platform. A rack is fixed to the inner wall of the slide groove. A rotating shaft is movably connected to the center of the movable plate. A gear meshing with the rack is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft. A support base is movably connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft. A movable groove is formed at the top of the support base. A toothed block meshing with the gear is movably connected inside the movable groove. A guide rod penetrating the support base is fixed to the bottom of the toothed block. A spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the guide rod, located between the bottom of the movable groove and the bottom of the toothed block. A handle is fixed to the bottom of the guide rod.
[0006] Preferably, a camera base is fixed to the top of the movable plate, and an industrial camera is fixed to the top of the camera base.
[0007] Preferably, a fixing seat is fixed to the top of the ball head, and the fixing seat is fixed to the adjustment platform. A rotating scale is fixed to the bottom of the ball head. The outer surface of the ball head is provided with a locking knob and a horizontal rotation knob for adjusting the ball and the rotating scale.
[0008] Preferably, a central axis locking knob is provided on the lower side of the ball joint, and a support leg is provided circumferentially on the lower side of the central axis locking knob, which can provide stable support for the camera bracket.
[0009] Preferably, an angle adjustment button is provided at the upper end of the outrigger near the locking knob of the central axis, a telescopic adjustment knob is provided at the lower part of the outrigger, and an anti-slip pad is provided at the lower end of the outrigger. The anti-slip pad can prevent the lower end of the outrigger from slipping.
[0010] Preferably, a load-bearing sleeve is provided at the center of the lower side of the central shaft locking knob, and a height telescopic rod is provided inside the load-bearing sleeve, so that the ball head seat can be moved up and down to adjust the height.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Pulling the handle causes the toothed block to slide upwards along a straight line under the limiting action of the guide rod, thereby disengaging the toothed block from the gear. At this time, pushing the industrial camera causes the support base to slide along the slide groove, allowing the positions of the two industrial cameras to be adjusted at will. After the industrial camera is moved to the appropriate position, releasing the handle causes the toothed block to engage with the gear under the elastic force of the spring. This achieves quick and convenient adjustment and fixation of the industrial camera position, reducing the workload of the operator and increasing work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Reference Figure 1-5 The camera adjustment platform includes an adjustment platform 1 and a ball head 17. Movable plates 2 are provided at both the left and right ends of the top of the adjustment platform 1. Slide grooves 5 are provided through both ends of the top of the adjustment platform 1. A rack 6 is welded to the inner wall of the slide groove 5. A rotating shaft 7 is movably connected to the center of the movable plate 2. A gear 8 that meshes with the rack 6 is fitted on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7. A support base 9 is movably connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 7. A movable groove 10 is provided at the top of the support base 9. A toothed block 11 that meshes with the gear 8 is movably connected inside the movable groove 10. A guide rod 12 that passes through the support base 9 is interference-fitted to the bottom of the toothed block 11. A spring 13 is fitted on the outer surface of the guide rod 12, located between the bottom of the movable groove 10 and the bottom of the toothed block 11. A handle 14 is interference-fitted to the bottom of the guide rod 12.
[0019] Pulling the handle 14 causes the toothed block 11 to slide upwards along a straight line under the limiting action of the guide rod 12. This causes the spring 13 to undergo corresponding elastic deformation under pressure, thereby generating a corresponding elastic force. This disengages the toothed block 11 from the gear 8. At this time, pushing the industrial camera 4 causes the support base 9 to slide along the slide groove 5, allowing the positions of the two industrial cameras 4 to be adjusted arbitrarily. Simultaneously, the gear 8 can slide along the support base 9. Since the gear 8 meshes with the rack 6, it can rotate while sliding. After the industrial camera 4 has moved to the appropriate position, releasing the handle 14 allows the toothed block 11 to return to its original position along a straight line under the limiting action of the guide rod 12, re-engaging the toothed block 11 with the gear 8. Therefore, the position of the industrial camera 4 can be fixed.
[0020] The top of the movable plate 2 is detachably connected to a camera base 3, and the top of the camera base 3 is threadedly connected to an industrial camera 4.
[0021] The top of the ball head 17 is fixed with a fixing seat 16, and the fixing seat 16 is fixed to the adjustment platform 1. The bottom of the ball head 17 is fixed with a rotating scale. The outer surface of the ball head 17 is provided with a locking knob 18 and a horizontal rotation knob 19 for adjusting the ball and the rotating scale.
[0022] A central axis locking knob 24 is provided on the lower side of the ball head 17. A support leg 20 is arranged circumferentially on the lower side of the central axis locking knob 24. The support leg 20 can provide stable support for the camera bracket. The central axis locking knob 24 can lock and fix the vertical telescopic axis to ensure that the height of the ball head 17 meets the requirements.
[0023] An angle adjustment button 23 is provided at the upper end of the support leg 20 near the locking knob 24 of the central axis, and a telescopic adjustment knob 21 is provided at the lower part of the support leg 20. An anti-slip foot pad 22 is provided at the lower end of the support leg 20. The length of the support leg 20 can be adjusted by the telescopic adjustment knob 21, and the anti-slip foot pad 22 can prevent the lower end of the support leg 20 from slipping.
[0024] A load-bearing sleeve 25 is provided at the center of the lower side of the central shaft locking knob 24. A height telescopic rod is provided inside the load-bearing sleeve 25, which allows the ball head seat 17 to move up and down to adjust the height.
[0025] When using this device, first adjust the opening angle of the support leg 20 using the angle adjustment button 23, and then adjust the length of the support leg 20 using the telescopic adjustment knob 21 to stably support the camera bracket on the ground. At this time, fix the fixed base 16 to the adjustment platform 1, and finally fix the camera base 3 and the industrial camera 4 to the top of the moving plate 2. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the industrial camera 4, pull the handle 14, so that the handle 14 slides the toothed block 11 upward along a straight line under the limiting action of the guide rod 12, thereby disengaging the toothed block 11 from the gear 8. At this time, push the industrial camera 4 to make the support base 9 slide along the slide groove 5, so that the positions of the two industrial cameras 4 can be adjusted at will. After the industrial camera 4 is moved to the appropriate position, release the handle 14. Under the elastic force of the spring 13, the toothed block 11 engages with the gear 8, thus fixing the position of the industrial camera 4, thereby achieving quick and convenient fixing of the industrial camera 4 and speeding up work efficiency.
