Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera device technology, and in particular to a privacy protection component for a camera device. Background Technology

[0002] The Chinese invention patent application with patent number 202211488758.5 ​​and patent title "A Camera Anti-Spy Device and a Camera Module" specifically discloses the following technical solution: A camera anti-spy device includes a cover, a motor, a lead screw, a connecting rod, and a camera bracket. The lead screw is connected to the drive shaft of the motor. One end of the connecting rod is passed through the lead screw and is connected to the lead screw for transmission. The other end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the cover. The cover is located on the front side of the camera bracket. The camera bracket has a camera mounting slot for mounting a camera and a camera hole. One end of the camera hole is connected to the camera mounting slot. The cover has a first position with the camera hole open and a second position with the camera hole closed.

[0003] When the above-mentioned camera privacy device is in use, the motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod to move along the axis of the lead screw, thereby driving the cover to move between the first position and the second position to realize the opening and closing action of the camera hole.

[0004] It should be noted that the aforementioned camera privacy devices still have the following shortcomings, specifically:

[0005] Defect 1: The camera privacy device is installed on the outside of the camera bracket, which obviously increases the space occupied by the entire camera module and results in poor structural compactness.

[0006] Defect 2: The motor drives the connecting rod and the cover to move linearly through the lead screw transmission pair. The cover moves back and forth between the first position and the second position to realize the opening and closing of the camera hole. The camera hole is opened and closed by only a single part, the cover. This results in a long travel of the cover, which will affect the compactness of the overall structure of the camera assembly.

Detailed Implementation

[0037] The present invention will now be described in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0038] Example 1, as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a privacy protection component for a camera device is disclosed. The camera device includes a camera bracket and a privacy protection component. The camera bracket includes a bracket base 1 and a bracket front cover 2 installed at the front end of the bracket base 1. The bracket base 1 is equipped with a camera module (not shown in the figure). The bracket front cover 2 has a through-hole 21 that runs through the front and back and is aligned with the camera module.

[0039] Among them, such as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the privacy protection component includes a drive motor 3, a drive screw 4, a first privacy cover 511, and a first drive block 512. The drive screw 4 is connected to the power output shaft of the drive motor 3. The first privacy cover 511 is connected to the first drive block 512. The first drive block 512 has a first internal threaded through hole 513. The drive screw 4 is screwed into the first internal threaded through hole 513 of the first drive block 512.

[0040] Furthermore, the privacy protection component is installed in the cavity 6 between the bracket base 1 and the bracket front cover 2, and the privacy protection component is located between the camera module and the camera through hole 21.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figures 3 to 6As shown, the privacy protection component also includes a fixed substrate 7, which is screwed and fastened to the bracket base 1. A substrate through hole 71 is opened in the middle area of ​​the fixed base, and the drive motor 3 is fastened to the fixed substrate 7. For the substrate through hole 71 in this embodiment, its function is to achieve a clearance function so as to prevent the fixed substrate 7 from blocking the camera channel between the camera module and the camera through hole 21 of the bracket front cover 2.

[0042] It should be noted that the drive screw 4 is arranged vertically and is a bidirectional drive screw, with the upper threaded section of the bidirectional drive screw being screwed to the first drive block 512.

[0043] In addition, such as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the privacy protection component also includes a second privacy cover 521 located below the first privacy cover 511 and a second drive block 522 located below the first drive block 512. The second drive block 522 is connected to the second privacy cover 521. The second drive block 522 has a second internal thread through hole 523. The lower thread section of the bidirectional drive screw is screwed into the second internal thread through hole 523 of the second drive block 522.

[0044] When the privacy protection component in this embodiment is activated, the drive motor 3 drives the first drive block 512 and the second drive block 522 to move synchronously in opposite directions via a bidirectional drive screw. The first drive block 512 drives the first privacy cover 511 to move synchronously up and down, and the second drive block 522 drives the second privacy cover 521 to move synchronously up and down, thereby driving the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 to move synchronously in opposite directions. When the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 are closed, the first privacy cover 511 moves downward and the second privacy cover 521 moves upward, and the lower edge of the first privacy cover 511... When the upper edge of the second privacy cover 521 is closed, the baffle structure formed by the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 blocks the camera channel between the camera through hole 21 of the bracket front cover 2 and the camera module, and the camera module is in a privacy-blocking state. When the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 are opened, the first privacy cover 511 moves upward and the second privacy cover 521 moves downward. At this time, the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 will not block the camera channel between the camera through hole 21 of the bracket front cover 2 and the camera module, and the camera module is in a normal camera state.

[0045] In this embodiment, the privacy protection component is installed inside the camera bracket, that is, the privacy protection component is located in the cavity 6 between the bracket base 1 and the bracket front cover 2. This hidden structure design of the privacy protection component can effectively reduce the overall space occupied by the camera device and has a good structural compactness.

[0046] It should be emphasized that in this embodiment, the opening and closing of the camera channel is achieved by the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 with synchronous reverse action. This structural design can effectively reduce the stroke of the moving blocking component, thereby further improving the compactness of the overall structure.

[0047] In summary, the privacy protection component of the camera device in this embodiment has the advantages of novel structural design and good structural compactness, which can effectively adapt to the miniaturization requirements of camera devices.

[0048] Example 2, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment 2 and embodiment 1 is that: the fixed base plate 7 is screwed with an upper bearing seat 811 and a lower bearing seat 812 that are aligned vertically and spaced apart; the upper end of the bidirectional drive screw is mounted on the fixed base plate 7 through the upper bearing seat 811; the lower end of the bidirectional drive screw is mounted on the fixed base plate 7 through the lower bearing seat 812; the drive motor 3 is fastened to the upper bearing seat 811; and the power output shaft of the drive motor 3 is connected to the upper end of the bidirectional drive screw.

[0049] Example 3, as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment 3 and embodiment 2 is that a first guide rod 813 arranged vertically is installed between the upper bearing seat 811 and the lower bearing seat 812, and the upper end and lower end of the first guide rod 813 are respectively connected to the upper bearing seat 811 and the lower bearing seat 812 on the corresponding side.

[0050] The first drive block 512 is equipped with a first linear bearing 814, the second drive block 522 is equipped with a second linear bearing 815, and the first guide rod 813 passes through the center hole of the first linear bearing 814 and the center hole of the second linear bearing 815 in sequence.

[0051] For the first drive block 512, the first linear bearing 814 cooperates with the first guide rod 813, ensuring that the first drive block 512 can smoothly reciprocate up and down. Similarly, for the second drive block 522, the second linear bearing 815 cooperates with the first guide rod 813, ensuring that the second drive block 522 can smoothly reciprocate up and down.

[0052] Example 4, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the difference between this embodiment four and embodiment one is that the first privacy cover 511 is screwed onto the side opposite to the first driving block 512 with an upper guide block 91, and the upper guide block 91 has an upper guide groove 911.

[0053] The second privacy cover 521 is screwed onto the lower guide block 92 on the side opposite to the second drive block 522, and the lower guide block 92 is provided with a lower guide groove 921.

[0054] Specifically, the fixed base plate 7 is also equipped with two vertically aligned and spaced guide rod fixing blocks 93, and a second guide rod 94 arranged vertically is installed between the two guide rod fixing blocks 93. The second guide rod 94 passes through the upper guide groove 911 of the upper guide block 91 and the lower guide groove 921 of the lower guide block 92 in sequence.

[0055] During the lifting and lowering movement of the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521, the upper guide block 91 moves along the second guide rod 94 through its upper guide groove 911, and the lower guide block 92 moves along the second guide rod 94 through its lower guide groove 921. Since the upper guide block 91 and the lower guide block 92 in this embodiment are located on the opposite side of the corresponding first drive block 512 and second drive block 522, this embodiment can further improve the stability of the reciprocating lifting and lowering movement of the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy rod.

[0056] Example 5, such as Figure 3 As shown, the difference between this fifth embodiment and the first embodiment is that the lower surface of the first privacy cover 511 is a stepped surface, and the upper surface of the second privacy cover 521 is also a stepped surface; when the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 are closed, the lower edge of the first privacy cover 511 coincides with the upper edge of the second privacy cover 521, thereby ensuring that no light-transmitting gaps will appear when the first privacy cover 511 and the second privacy cover 521 are closed.

[0057] Example 6: The difference between Example 6 and Example 1 is that the drive motor 3 is a stepper motor.

[0058] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
