[0018] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] A wearable camera is a camera device that can be worn on various parts of the body, specifically designed to record images or videos from a unique perspective. It is widely used in sports and outdoor activities, especially by athletes, explorers, and outdoor enthusiasts, to capture first-person perspectives during activities such as running, cycling, skiing, and diving, thus providing a more immersive and realistic experience. However, most wearable cameras currently on the market are relatively limited in their wearing methods. For example, some can only be worn on the chest and cannot be flexibly adjusted to other parts of the body, such as the arm or head, limiting their usage scenarios and practicality. Please see [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a wearable camera that can be worn in multiple ways, including a camera 1 and a wearing strap 2 disposed on its side. By replacing different wearing straps 2 through the connecting component 3, and using replaceable wearing straps 2 (e.g., chest strap, arm strap, headband, etc.), users can flexibly adjust the wearing position of the camera 1 according to different needs and scenarios, providing a more diverse user experience. The replaceable wearing strap 2 and the ability to allow users to adjust the wearing position of the camera 1 according to their needs can significantly improve the practicality of the wearable camera 1 and meet the diverse needs of different users in different activity scenarios.

[0020] refer to Figures 2-3As shown, most wearable cameras on the market currently have relatively simple wearing methods. For example, some can only be worn on the chest and cannot be flexibly adjusted to other parts, such as the arm or head, which limits their usage scenarios and practicality. In order to allow users to adjust the wearing position of the camera 1 according to their needs, thereby improving the practicality of the wearable camera 1 and meeting the diverse needs of different users in different activity scenarios, the following settings are made: A connecting component 3 is set between the camera 1 and the wearing strap 2. The connecting component 3 includes two connecting plates 31 fixed on opposite sides of the camera 1 and the wearing strap 2, respectively. Two locking plates 37 are set on both sides of one connecting plate 31, and two locking slots 38 are opened on both sides of the other connecting plate 31 to match the two locking plates 37. The interior of one connecting plate 31 is equipped with a tool for pushing the two locking plates 37. A power assembly for moving the card plate 37 into and out of the slot 38 includes a pressing rod 32 slidably fitted inside one of the connecting plates 31. A return spring 33 is fitted on the outer wall of the pressing rod 32, with both ends of the return spring 33 fixedly connected to the pressing rod 32 and one of the connecting plates 31, respectively. A mounting plate 34 is hinged to the bottom of the pressing rod 32, and two linkage rods 35 are hinged to the bottom of the mounting plate 34. Two sliding plates 36 are hinged to the bottom of the two linkage rods 35. Two limiting components for restricting the movement range of the two sliding plates 36 are provided inside one of the connecting plates 31. The limiting components include sliders fixed to the bottom of the sliding plates 36. A groove for the sliders to slide is formed on the inner wall of one of the connecting plates 31. The two sliding plates 36 are fixedly connected to the two card plates 37, respectively. Two bonding pieces 39 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two connecting plates 31. Both bonding pieces 39 are made of magnetic material. The principle of magnetic attraction refers to the phenomenon that two magnets attract each other due to the interaction of their magnetic fields. Magnets have two polarities, usually marked as N and S. This attraction is generated by the direction of the magnetic field lines and the arrangement of the magnetic poles, so that the two bonding pieces 39 attract each other when they are close together. When the wearing strap 2 needs to be replaced, pressing down on the pressing lever 32 causes the mounting plate 34 to push the two linkage rods 35 to move, thereby causing the two sliding plates 36 to move the two locking plates 37 out of the two locking slots 38. At this time, to avoid the risk of the wearing strap 2 falling accidentally, two adhesive pieces 39 are set to attract each other, so that the user can only separate the two connecting plates 31 by force. After replacing the wearing strap 2, the pressing lever 32 is released, and the pressing lever 32 is reset by the return spring 33. At this time, the two locking plates 37 are inserted into the two new locking slots 38 and the two adhesive pieces 39 attract each other, thus completing the replacement of the wearing strap 2. This allows the user to adjust the wearing position of the camera 1 according to their needs, achieving the purpose of wearing the camera 1 in multiple ways.

[0021] refer to Figure 2As shown, the wearing strap 2 is equipped with a wearing component 4, which includes an auxiliary fastening member 41 fixed to the end face of the wearing strap 2. The inner wall of the auxiliary fastening member 41 has two through-holes 42 extending through its front and back. A male adhesive tape 43 and a female adhesive tape 44 are fixedly connected to the side of the wearing strap 2 away from the auxiliary fastening member 41. The male and female adhesive tapes 43 and 44 are fixed but detachable. The auxiliary fastening member 41 is fixed to the wearing strap 2 through the two through-holes 42 on its inner wall. This design ensures a stable connection of the wearing strap 2 during wear, and the through-hole design makes the connection between the wearing strap 2 and the auxiliary fastening member 41 more secure, preventing loosening or displacement during exercise. The male and female adhesive tapes 43 and 44 make the connection of the wearing strap 2 more flexible and convenient. When the user needs to adjust the wearing method or replace the wearing components, they only need to simply separate the male and female adhesive tapes 43 and 44, improving user convenience and efficiency.

[0022] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
