[0002] With the rapid development of the national economy and the rapid improvement of people's living standards, the number of vehicles on the road has increased rapidly, and the pressure on road traffic has been increasing day by day. In order to alleviate traffic pressure and ensure traffic safety, it is necessary to collect traffic information through traffic information collection devices so that management departments can keep abreast of the real-time road traffic conditions and efficiently solve problems such as traffic congestion, traffic safety, and traffic environment. Therefore, a traffic information collection device with adjustment function is needed.

[0003] Currently, Chinese patent CN221149463U discloses a traffic information collection device. Its technical solution includes a column and an information collection camera. A crossbar is fixed to the upper end of the column, the information collection camera is mounted on the crossbar, and a supplementary light is installed on the crossbar at a position corresponding to the information collection camera. The column consists of a fixed column and a rotating column. The lower end of the rotating column is rotatably connected to the upper end of the fixed column. A lifting sleeve is slidably connected to the periphery of the fixed column, and a driving component for driving the lifting sleeve to slide is provided inside the fixed column. This utility model sets the column for installing the information collection camera device into a rotatable structure. By rotating the column, the information collection device can be lowered from a height, facilitating installation and maintenance, and improving the safety of maintenance operations.

[0004] However, when the above-mentioned device is in use, the information acquisition camera is fixed to the crossbar by the connecting ring, and the angle of the information acquisition camera is constant, which limits its application range. Even though there are cameras on the market that can adjust their own angle, such devices are limited to small-angle rotation in a fixed position, and there are still some blind spots in the information acquisition of the camera, making them less practical.
