In addition, the term "comprising" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a schematic view of a three-dimensional structure in which the camera 100 in the embodiments of the present application is fixed to the substrate 400. The camera 100 includes the camera assembly 200 described above and the fixing member 300, and the fixing member 300 is mounted to the outer side of the front cover 2 to fix the camera assembly 200 to a substrate 400. The camera assembly 200 is used for photographing, taking pictures, and the like.

[0035] Thus, the camera assembly 200 is fixed to the substrate 400 through the fixing member 300 to improve the stability of the camera assembly 200 in use.

[0036] In some embodiments, the substrate 400 is a light-transmitting substrate, which can be, but is not limited to, a glass substrate, or a light-transmitting substrate made of polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP), polyimide (PI), sapphire, quartz, and the like, and a non-light-transmitting substrate, which is not limited herein.

[0037] In some embodiments, the fixing member 300 is double-sided adhesive tape, and the front cover 2 is fixed to the substrate 400 by double-sided adhesive tape, thereby fixing the camera assembly 200 to the substrate 400.

[0038] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a three-dimensional exploded view of Figure 1 . In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the fixing member 300 is a magic tape, which includes a first magic tape 301 and a second magic tape 302. The side of the first magic tape 301 close to the substrate 400 is a glue surface, and the side of the first magic tape 301 close to the camera assembly 200 is a velvet surface. The side of the second magic tape 302 close to the substrate 400 is a hook surface, and the side of the second magic tape 302 close to the camera assembly 200 is a glue surface.

[0039] Specifically, the first magic tape 301 is pasted on the substrate 400 by the adhesive effect of the glue surface, and the second magic tape 302 is pasted on the front cover 2, and then the first magic tape 301 and the second magic tape 302 are pasted together by the pasting effect of the velvet surface and the hook surface, so as to fix the camera assembly 200 on the substrate 400.

[0040] In other embodiments, the fixing member 300 is a buckle or other fixable element.

[0041] In yet other embodiments, the fixing member 300 can be omitted, and the camera assembly 200 can be fixed to the substrate 400 by negative pressure.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 3-5 , Figure 3 for a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the camera assembly 200 in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 for Figure 3 a three-dimensional exploded view, Figure 5 for Figure 4 an enlarged view at A. The camera assembly 200 includes a camera body 1 and a front cover 2, and the front cover 2 is provided with a receiving cavity 21, and the end of the camera body 1 is at least partially installed in the receiving cavity 21. The combination of the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 is provided with a clamping structure 3, which includes an elastic clamping member 31 and a plurality of clamping grooves 32 arranged along the circumference of the camera assembly 200. When the elastic clamping member 31 is clamped with different clamping grooves 32, the camera body 1 is at different angles relative to the front cover 2.

[0043] Therefore, after the camera assembly 200 is fixed on the substrate 400, the angle of the camera body 1 can be directly adjusted by the clamping structure 3, so as to independently adjust the angle of the camera body 1 inside the camera assembly 200, without the need to adjust the angle of the entire camera assembly 200 after disassembling the camera assembly 200, which can make the user more convenient and fast to install and use the camera assembly 200, can save installation time and effort, and also improves the user's experience and satisfaction.

[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The elastic clamping pieces 31 are arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1, and the plurality of clamping grooves 32 are arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2.

[0045] Therefore, when adjusting the angle of the camera body 1, the elastic clamping pieces 31 on the outer side of the camera body 1 are sequentially clamped with the plurality of clamping grooves 32 on the inner side wall of the front cover 2, so as to independently adjust the angle of the camera body 1 inside the camera assembly 200, without the need to disassemble the camera assembly 200 to adjust the angle of the camera assembly 200 as a whole, so as to make the user conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, save installation time and effort, and also improve the user's experience and satisfaction.

[0046] In other embodiments, the elastic clamping pieces 31 are arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2, and the plurality of clamping grooves 32 are arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1.

[0047] Therefore, when adjusting the angle of the camera body 1, the elastic clamping pieces 31 on the inner side wall of the front cover 2 are sequentially clamped with the plurality of clamping grooves 32 on the outer side of the camera body 1, so as to independently adjust the angle of the camera body 1 inside the camera assembly 200, without the need to disassemble the camera assembly 200 to adjust the angle of the camera assembly 200 as a whole, so as to make the user conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, save installation time and effort, and also improve the user's experience and satisfaction.

[0048] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The camera body 1 includes a body cover 12 and a body shell 11, the outer side of the body shell 11 is the outer side of the camera body 1 described above, and the body shell 11 is provided with a body cavity, the opening of the body cavity is directed away from the front cover 2, and the body cover 12 is installed on the body shell 11 to close the opening of the body cavity.

[0049] In some embodiments, a circuit board and a plurality of electronic elements are installed in the body cavity, the plurality of electronic elements are installed on the circuit board, and the camera body 1 can perform corresponding functions through the circuit board and the plurality of electronic elements.

[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The camera body 1 is provided with a charging port 15, the charging port 15 is specifically arranged on the body cover 12 and connected with the circuit board in the body cavity, so as to supply power to the circuit board and the plurality of electronic elements.

[0051] It can be understood that the charging port 15 can be a Type-A, Type-C or the like interface, which is not limited here.

[0052] Please refer to Figures 6-8 , Figure 6 is a perspective view of the camera assembly 200 in another direction, Figure 7 is Figure 6 a sectional view of the front cover 2 and the main body shell 11 at B-B, Figure 8 is Figure 7 an enlarged view at C.

[0053] Specifically, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 , when the end of the camera body 1 is at least partially installed in the accommodating cavity 21, the elastic clamping piece 31 is clamped with at least part of the plurality of clamping grooves 32, when adjusting the angle of the camera body 1, the front cover 2 remains stationary, and the camera body 1 is rotated in the accommodating cavity 21, because the elastic clamping piece 31 has elasticity, the elastic clamping piece 31 is sequentially clamped with different clamping grooves 32 with the rotation of the camera body 1, thereby making the camera body 1 rotate at different angles relative to the front cover 2.

[0054] Among them, each clamping groove 32 of the plurality of clamping grooves 32 can be an angle position, and in some embodiments, the user can feel the clamping action of the elastic clamping piece 31 and the clamping groove 32 to determine that the angle adjustment of the camera body 1 is successful.

[0055] It can be understood that the angle of the camera body 1 relative to the front cover 2 can be 180°, 360°, etc., which needs to be determined according to the number of the plurality of clamping grooves 32, which is not limited here.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 is Figure 7 a perspective view in another direction, Figure 10 is Figure 9 an enlarged view at D. Specifically, taking the case that the elastic clamping piece 31 is arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1, and the plurality of clamping grooves 32 are arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2 as an example, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the elastic clamping piece 31 is connected to the outer side of the camera body 1 at only one end, and the other parts of the elastic clamping piece 31 are in a suspended state, so as to form an elastic state of being depressed into the inside of the camera body 1.

[0057] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 Each of the plurality of card slots 32 comprises two side joints 321, which are spaced apart and form a groove 322 between them. The two side joints 321 and the groove 322 together form the card slot 32. Specifically, the two side joints 321 protrude from the inner side wall of the front cover 2 or the outer side of the camera body 1. Since the two protruding side joints 321 are spaced apart, the space between them is recessed relative to the side joints 321, which is the groove 322.

[0058] Therefore, when the elastic clamping piece 31 is clamped with different card slots 32, it is located in the groove 322 of the different card slots 32. The elastic clamping piece 31 is in an elastic state under the pressure of the side joint 321, and then enters the groove 322 of another card slot 32 from the groove 322 of one card slot 32. This allows the camera body 1 to rotate at different angles relative to the front cover 2, independently adjusts the angle of the camera body 1 inside the camera assembly 200, and does not need to disassemble the camera assembly 200 to adjust the angle of the camera assembly 200 as a whole. Users can conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, saving installation time and effort, and improving user experience and satisfaction.

[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 The plurality of card slots 32 are connected to form an annular region.

[0060] Therefore, the formation of the annular region allows the elastic clamping piece 31 to be clamped with more different card slots 32, and the camera body 1 can rotate 360° in the accommodating cavity 21, so that the camera body 1 performs circular motion, thereby increasing the range of adjustable angle of the camera body 1, and further facilitating the installation and use of the camera assembly 200 by the user.

[0061] The plurality of card slots 32 are connected by the connection between the side joints 321 of different card slots 32.

[0062] In other embodiments, the plurality of card slots 32 can be divided into multiple regions along the circumference, and the card slots 32 in each region are connected to form multiple arc-shaped regions. At this time, through the clamping structure 3 composed of the plurality of card slots 32 and the elastic clamping piece 31, the camera body 1 can only rotate a certain angle and cannot rotate 360° as described above.

[0063] Please refer to Figures 11-13 , Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of the stereoscopic structure of the camera body 1 in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 12 is Figure 3 a cross-sectional view at E-E, Figure 13 is Figure 12 an enlarged view at F. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the joint of the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 is also provided with a step structure 4, which includes a step portion 41 and a buckle 42. When the step portion 41 and the buckle 42 are clamped, the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 are connected, and when the step portion 41 and the buckle 42 are not clamped, the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 are separated.

[0064] Therefore, the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 are connected through the step structure 4 to install the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, further improve the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, and avoid the camera body 1 from shaking or directly separating from the front cover 2 when adjusting the angle relative to the front cover 2. The user can conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, and improve the user's experience and satisfaction.

[0065] In some embodiments, the step portion 41 is arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1, and the buckle 42 is arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2.

[0066] Therefore, the step portion 41 of the outer side of the camera body 1 and the buckle 42 of the inner side wall of the front cover 2 are clamped to install the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, further improve the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, and avoid the camera body 1 from shaking or directly separating from the front cover 2 when adjusting the angle relative to the front cover 2. The user can conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, and improve the user's experience and satisfaction.

[0067] In some embodiments, the step portion 41 is arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2, and the buckle 42 is arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1.

[0068] Thus, the stepped portion 41 of the inner side wall of the front cover 2 is clamped with the buckle position 42 of the outer side surface of the camera body 1 to install the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, further improve the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, and avoid the camera body 1 from shaking or directly separating from the front cover 2 when adjusting the angle relative to the front cover 2. The user can conveniently and quickly install and use the camera assembly 200, and the experience and satisfaction of the user are improved.

[0069] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the stepped portion 41 includes a protruding portion 411 and a mounting portion 412, the mounting portion 412 is recessed relative to the protruding portion 411, the buckle position 42 located in the mounting portion 412 is clamped with the protruding portion 411, so that the stepped portion 41 and the buckle position 42 are clamped, and the protruding portion 411 is arranged in a smooth shape in the direction from the buckle position 42 to the stepped portion 41.

[0070] Specifically, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the buckle position 42 passes through the protruding portion 411 to reach the mounting portion 412. Since the protruding portion 411 has a certain protruding height, the buckle position 42 will be forced to lift a certain height upward. When the buckle position 42 reaches the mounting portion 412, since the mounting portion 412 is recessed relative to the protruding portion 411, the buckle position 42 will return to the initial state. At this time, the buckle position 42 is clamped in the mounting portion 412 due to the protruding height of the protruding portion 411, and the camera body 1 is installed in the accommodating cavity 21.

[0071] Thus, the camera body 1 and the front cover 2 are connected through the stepped structure 4 to install the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, further improve the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21, and avoid the camera body 1 from shaking or directly separating from the front cover 2 when adjusting the angle relative to the front cover 2. In addition, the protruding portion 411 is arranged in a smooth shape in the direction from the buckle position 42 to the stepped portion 41, so that the buckle position 42 gradually transitions from other positions to the mounting portion 412 through the protruding portion 411, and the convenience and smoothness of clamping the stepped portion 41 and the buckle position 42 are improved.

[0072] Specifically, the smooth description is only applied to the surface part of the protruding part 411 protruding, and the step part 41 is arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1, and the buckle 42 is arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2. The height of the protruding part 411 on the outer side of the camera body 1 gradually increases to a certain height in the direction from the buckle 42 to the step part 41, so that the buckle 42 gradually transitions from other positions to the mounting part 412 through the protruding part 411.

[0073] It can be understood that the front cover 2 can be made of a mixture of polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), but is not limited thereto, as long as the front cover 2 has a certain elasticity to lift a certain height when the buckle 42 is stressed, and return to the initial state when the buckle 42 reaches the mounting part 412. Here, no limitation is made.

[0074] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 The step part 41 is arranged in a ring shape.

[0075] Therefore, the step part 41 is arranged in a ring shape, and the mounting part 412 and the protruding part 411 are also arranged in a ring shape. The ring-shaped mounting part 412 provides a rotating track for the buckle 42, so that when the camera body 1 adjusts the angle relative to the front cover 2 through the clamping structure 3, the step part 41 rotates relatively to make the buckle 42 not hinder the rotation of the camera body 1. In addition, the step part 41 arranged in a ring shape can also make the camera body 1 rotate in a larger angle range relative to the front cover 2.

[0076] In other embodiments, the step part 41 can be divided into multiple regions along the circumference. At this time, when the camera body 1 adjusts the angle relative to the front cover 2 through the clamping structure 3, since the step part 41 is divided into multiple regions, the mounting part 412 does not provide sufficient rotating path for the buckle 42, so the camera body 1 can only rotate a certain angle, and cannot rotate 360° as described above.

[0077] In some embodiments, the buckle 42 does not contact the mounting part 412, so as to avoid friction between the buckle 42 and the mounting part 412 when the camera body 1 rotates, thereby avoiding hindering the rotation of the camera body 1.

[0078] In some embodiments, the number of buckles 42 is multiple, and the distance between every two buckles 42 in the multiple buckles 42 is the same.

[0079] Therefore, the plurality of buckling positions 42 are arranged to make the connection between the front cover 2 and the camera body 1 more secure, further improving the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21; and the distance between each two buckling positions 42 in the plurality of buckling positions 42 is the same, so that the buckling positions 42 are evenly distributed, which can make the rotation of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21 more stable, avoiding the camera body 1 from being skewed or stuck.

[0080] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the diameter of the portion of the mounting portion 412 in the main body shell 11 away from the side of the protruding portion 411 gradually increases in the direction from the buckling position 42 to the stepped portion 41, and forms a mounting gap 14 with the portion of the main body cover 12 located on the main body shell 11, to accommodate the end of the front cover 2 close to the main body cover 12, further improving the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21.

[0081] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the buckling position 42 includes a first buckling position 421 and a second buckling position 422, and the first buckling position 421 and the second buckling position 422 are arranged to form a gap 423 therebetween, as shown in Figure 11 , the stepped portion 41 further includes a positioning portion 43, which is arranged corresponding to the gap 423, for positioning the buckling position 42 at the clamping position of the stepped portion 41.

[0082] Therefore, the positioning portion 43 positions the buckling position 42 at the clamping position of the stepped portion 41, so that the buckling position 42 is installed at the predetermined clamping position of the stepped portion 41, and the arrangement of the positioning portion 43 can also prevent the buckling position 42 from being separated from the mounting portion 412, thereby improving the stability of the clamping between the stepped portion 41 and the buckling position 42, further improving the stability of the camera body 1 in the accommodating cavity 21.

[0083] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 , at least part of the positioning portion 43 is arranged on the protruding portion 411 for positioning the buckling position 42 at the clamping position of the stepped portion 41, wherein the positioning portion 43 is arranged in a smooth shape in the direction from the buckling position 42 to the stepped portion 41.

[0084] Therefore, at least part of the positioning portion 43 is arranged on the protruding portion 411, so that the buckle 42 is more accurately installed at the clamping position of the step portion 41, and the positioning portion 43 is arranged in a smooth shape in the direction from the buckle 42 to the step portion 41, so that the buckle 42 gradually transitions from other positions to the mounting portion 412 through the protruding portion 411 and the positioning portion 43, thereby improving the convenience and smoothness of clamping of the step portion 41 and the buckle 42.

[0085] Specifically, the smooth shape is only applied to the surface part of the protruding positioning portion 43, and the step portion 41 is arranged on the outer side of the camera body 1, and the buckle 42 is arranged on the inner side wall of the front cover 2. For example, the height of the positioning portion 43 on the outer side of the camera body 1 gradually increases to a certain height in the direction from the buckle 42 to the step portion 41, so that the buckle 42 gradually transitions from other positions to the mounting portion 412 through the protruding portion 411.

[0086] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 The plurality of protruding strips 44 are arranged on the outer side of the body shell 11, and part of the plurality of protruding strips 44 are arranged on the protruding portion 411. Therefore, the buckle 42 can only be clamped with the step portion 41 from the positions between the plurality of protruding strips 44, and the positioning portion 43 can more specifically position the clamping position of the buckle 42 on the step portion 41 to guide the clamping of the buckle 42 and the step portion 41.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 14 , Figure 14 For Figure 6 the exploded view. In some embodiments, the camera body 1 includes a camera lens 13, a body cavity is formed in the camera body 1, the camera lens 13 is installed in the body cavity, and at least part of the camera lens 13 is exposed on the outer side of the camera body 1; the front cover 2 is provided with a light transmission area 22 corresponding to the exposed at least part of the camera lens 13, and the camera lens 13 receives light at the light transmission area 22.

[0088] Therefore, the front cover 2 is provided with a light transmission area 22 to expose the camera lens 13, the camera lens 13 receives light at the light transmission area 22, and the camera body 1 performs specific operations such as photographing the external environment.

[0089] It can be understood that the light-transmitting area 22 is a through hole corresponding to the exposed at least part of the camera lens 13, or a corresponding glass area, as long as the camera lens 13 can receive light at the light-transmitting area 22, which is not limited here.

[0090] In combination with the above, when the substrate 400 is a light-transmitting substrate, the camera assembly 200 is fixed on one side of the substrate, and at this time the camera lens 13 faces the substrate 400, so that the camera lens 13 photographs or takes pictures of the scene on the other side of the substrate 400 through the light-transmitting substrate 400. If the angle of the camera lens 13 is not at the standard photographing angle, the camera head body 1 can be rotated through the clamping structure 3 to adjust the angle of the camera lens 13 to the standard photographing angle.

[0091] When the substrate 400 is a non-light-transmitting substrate, the camera assembly 200 is still fixed on the substrate 400, but at this time the camera lens 13 faces away from the substrate 400, so that the camera lens 13 directly photographs or takes pictures of the scene on one side without needing to photograph or take pictures through the substrate 400. If the angle of the camera lens 13 is not at the standard photographing angle, the camera head body 1 can be rotated through the clamping structure 3 to adjust the angle of the camera lens 13 to the standard photographing angle.

[0092] As can be seen from the above, the present application has the above-mentioned excellent properties, and can improve the performance of the prior art and has practicality, and becomes a product with great practical value.

[0093] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed in the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application. In the case of no conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
