[0016] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer", "front", "back", "horizontal", and "vertical" are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0018] It should be noted that the terms "horizontal" and "vertical" in this utility model are used to describe approximate positional relationships, and not strictly "horizontal plane" or "vertical plane".

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, a preferred embodiment of a lens disassembly and floating mechanism is presented, including: a base 1, a lens rotation mechanism 2 and a floating unit 3. The lens rotation mechanism 2 and the floating unit 3 are both disposed on the base 1 and connected to the base 1. A lens module 16 is mounted on the lens rotation mechanism 2, and a camera 15 is disposed on the upper end of the floating unit 3 and faces the lens module 16.

[0020] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the lens rotation mechanism 2 includes: a motor 4, a worm gear 5, a worm 6, and a worm gear mounting bracket 7. Both the worm gear mounting bracket 7 and the motor 4 are mounted on and connected to the base 1. The worm gear 5 is rotatably mounted on the worm gear mounting bracket 7, and the lens module 16 is detachably mounted on the worm gear 5. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the worm gear 5 via the worm 6. Furthermore, the motor 4 drives the worm gear 5 to rotate, and the rotation of the worm gear 5 in turn drives the lens module 16 to rotate. The rotation of the lens module 16 allows the lens to be mounted on the camera 15.

[0021] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the floating unit 3 includes: an electric cylinder 8 and a gel base 9. The electric cylinder 8 is disposed on and connected to the base 1, the gel base 9 is connected to the electric cylinder 8, and the camera 15 is disposed at the upper end of the gel base 9.

[0022] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the electric cylinder 8 includes a main body and a push-pull rod. The main body is disposed on and connected to the base 1, and one end of the push-pull rod extends into and is connected to the main body. Furthermore, the push-pull rod is slidable relative to the main body.

[0023] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the gel base 9 is connected to the push-pull rod. Furthermore, under the action of the electric cylinder 8, the push-pull rod will drive the gel base 9 to move.

[0024] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the system also includes a slide rail 10 and a slider disposed on the slide rail 10. The slider is located at the upper end of the base 1, and the gel base 9 is connected to the slider. Further, the gel base 9 moves under the drive of the electric cylinder 8. The movement of the gel base 9 causes the slider to move. Due to the restriction of the slide rail 10, the slider only moves along the direction of the slide rail 10. Conversely, the movement of the slider causes the gel base 9 to also move along the direction of the slide rail 10.

[0025] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the gel base 9 includes: a support plate 11, a support seat 12, a limiting plate 13, and a tooling plate 14. The lower end of the support seat 12 is disposed on and connected to the support plate 11, and the upper end of the support seat 12 is connected to the tooling plate 14. The limiting plate 13 is disposed between the tooling plate 14 and the support plate 11. Further, the limiting plate 13 is used to limit the floating amount of the support seat 12 and the rotation angle of the tooling plate 14, so that the floating amount of the support seat 12 and the rotation angle of the tooling plate 14 are kept within a certain range.

[0026] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the support plate 11 is disposed at the upper end of the push-pull rod and the slider.

[0027] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the support base 12 is made of a gel material. Moreover, the use of a gel material in the support base 12 allows the camera 15 to float within a certain range, thereby preventing damage during lens assembly and disassembly.

[0028] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, in actual use, the camera 15 is first fixed on the tooling plate 14, and then the gel base 9 is driven by the electric cylinder 8 to move along the slide rail 10, so that it gradually approaches the lens module 16. The lens module 16 includes a lens. In order to solve the problem of aligning the camera 15 with the lens, the gel base 9 allows the camera 15 to float within a certain range to facilitate the smooth docking of the camera and the lens. Once docking is successful, the motor 4 starts to rotate and drives the lens to rotate through the worm gear 5 and the worm 6, thereby completing the installation of the lens.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
