[0002] Dashcams are generally used to record and store videos for easy review by car owners. During installation, dashcams are typically mounted on the windshield using a bracket. To allow for easy adjustment of the dashcam's shooting angle, the dashcam and bracket need to be rotated during installation.

[0003] In existing technologies, dash cams and brackets are generally rotated together by a damper. The damper needs to be fixed to the pivot on the dash cam or bracket. The cost of the damper is high, which leads to the high cost of the dash cam.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rotating structure for a dash cam, which aims to solve the problem that the existing dash cams and brackets rotate and cooperate through a damper, resulting in high costs.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0007] A rotating structure for a dashcam includes:

[0008] A base; the bottom of the base is provided with a rotating groove, and a rotating shaft is provided in the rotating groove;

[0009] A housing is disposed at the bottom of the base; a rotating block is disposed at the top of the housing, and a rotating hole is provided on the rotating block. The rotating shaft is inserted into the rotating hole to rotatably connect the housing and the base. The rotating shaft and the rotating hole are interference-fitted.

[0010] Two grooves are respectively provided on both sides of the rotating hole; a rubber ring is provided in the groove, and the rubber ring abuts against the side wall of the rotating groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the top of the base is provided with a receiving groove, and a fixing component is provided in the receiving groove for fixing the base.

The two ends of the rotating shaft are respectively located in the two through holes.

[0012] Furthermore, a first reinforcing member and a second reinforcing member are respectively provided at the two opposite ends of the through hole. The first reinforcing member has a fixing hole, which is coaxially arranged with the through hole. The second reinforcing member has a square groove, which corresponds to the through hole. A square block is provided at one end of the rotating shaft, which cooperates with the square groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the two ends of the rotating hole are chamfered.

[0014] Furthermore, both the rotating block and one end of the rotating groove are arc-shaped surfaces.

[0015] Furthermore, the fixing component includes:

[0016] A fixing plate is disposed within the receiving groove; a first slot is provided on the fixing plate;

[0017] A mounting plate is disposed on the top of the fixing plate; the mounting plate is provided with a first locking block, which cooperates with the first locking slot;

[0018] An adhesive sheet is disposed on the side of the mounting plate away from the fixing plate.

[0019] Furthermore, the first card slot includes:

[0020] A settling trough is provided at the top of the fixed plate;

[0021] A baffle is disposed inside the settling tank; a wrapping groove is formed between the baffle and the bottom wall of the settling tank.

Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0040] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0041] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this embodiment provides a rotating structure for a dashcam, which can be referred to as follows:

[0042] As attached Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3As shown, a rotating structure for a dashcam includes a base 1, a housing 2, and two grooves 23. The base 1 has a rotating groove 11 at its bottom, and a rotating shaft 12 is fixedly disposed within the rotating groove 11. The housing 2 is also located at the bottom of the base 1, and a rotating block 21 is located at the top of the housing 2. The rotating block 21 engages with the rotating groove 11, and a rotating hole 22 is rotatably provided on the rotating block 21. The rotating shaft 12 is inserted into the rotating hole 22 to rotatably connect the housing 2 and the base 1. The rotating shaft 12 and the rotating hole 22 are interference-fitted, ensuring a more secure connection between the housing 2 and the base 1, and preventing the housing 2 from rotating under its own weight and the weight of its internal electronic components. A groove 23 is provided on each side of the rotating hole 22, and a rubber ring 4 is coaxially disposed within each groove 23. The outer side of the rubber ring 4 protrudes... The groove 23 is arranged, and the sidewall of the rubber ring 4 abuts against the sidewall of the rotating groove 11 to provide damping force for the rotation of the housing 2. By interfering with the rotating shaft 12 and the rotating hole 22, the housing 2 can be made more stable relative to the base 1 and will not rotate under its own weight. At the same time, rubber rings 4 are set on both sides of the rotating hole 22 and abut against the sidewall of the rotating groove 11 to provide damping force for the rotation of the housing 2. Compared with the existing technology of installing damping hinges, the above installation method is not only simpler, but also can effectively reduce the cost of the dashcam. At the same time, the above rotating structure only needs to open a rotating groove 11 on the base 1, so that the damping rotating structure of the dashcam occupies less space, saving space on the base 1. The saved space can be used to install its internal electronic components, etc.

[0043] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 12 is made of steel and is precision machined to ensure smooth rotation with the rotating hole 22, while also improving its durability; one end is set in a square shape to ensure that the rotating shaft 12 and the mounting plate 52 are firmly fixed relative to each other; at the same time, by adjusting the material of the rubber ring 4, the hardness of the rubber ring 4 is changed to achieve different damping effects.

[0044] In this embodiment, the top of the base 1 is provided with a receiving groove 13, and a fixing component 5 is provided in the receiving groove 13. The fixing component 5 can fix the base 1 inside the car to facilitate the installation of the dashcam. The two sides of the rotating groove 11 are provided with through holes 14, which penetrate through the side wall of the rotating groove 11 to connect the rotating groove 11 with the receiving groove 13. The two ends of the rotating shaft 12 are respectively located in the two through holes 14.

[0045] Specifically, the rotating block 21 of the housing 2 can be placed in the rotating groove 11 first, and the rotating hole 22 can be aligned with the through hole 14. Then, the rotating shaft 12 can be inserted into the through hole 14 and the rotating hole 22 to complete the assembly.

[0046] In this embodiment, as shown in the appendix Figure 4As shown, a first reinforcing member 6 and a second reinforcing member 7 are respectively provided at the two opposite ends of the through hole 14. The first reinforcing member 6 has a fixing hole, which is coaxially arranged with the through hole 14 to facilitate the insertion of the rotating shaft 12 into the fixing hole. The second reinforcing member 7 has a square groove, which corresponds to the through hole 14. At the same time, a square block is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 12, and the other end of the rotating shaft 12 passes through the through hole 14 and the rotating hole 22 and cooperates with the fixing hole. The square block cooperates with the square groove. The square groove restricts the square block, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating shaft 12 to prevent the rotating shaft 12 from rotating with the rotating block 21.

[0047] Further details are attached. Figure 3 As shown, chamfers are provided at both ends of the rotating hole 22; the chamfers provide a guiding function for the rotating shaft 12 so that the rotating shaft 12 can pass through the rotating hole 22.

[0048] In this embodiment, the rotating block 21 is located at one end of the rotating groove 11 and the top wall of the rotating groove 11 are both arc-shaped surfaces, which facilitates the rotation of the rotating block 21 within the rotating groove 11 and effectively reduces the volume of the rotating groove 11.

[0049] The top of the base 1 is provided with a receiving groove 13, and the formation of the rotating groove 11 will form a protrusion on the bottom wall of the receiving groove 13. The protrusion is arranged in an arc shape. The first reinforcing member 6 and the second reinforcing member 7 are located on both sides of the protrusion, which can not only increase the stability and strength of the side wall of the protrusion, but also facilitate the fixing of the rotating shaft 12.

[0050] In this embodiment, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the fixing assembly 5 includes a fixing plate 51 and a mounting plate 52. The fixing plate 51 is provided with a receiving groove 13 and a first slot. The mounting plate 52 is disposed on the top of the fixing plate 51 and is provided with a first locking block. The first locking block cooperates with the first slot to achieve the locking and fixing of the fixing plate 51 and the mounting plate 52. An adhesive sheet 8 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 52 away from the fixing plate 51. The adhesive sheet 8 is used to fix the mounting plate 52 inside the car.

[0051] Furthermore, a placement groove is provided on the side of the mounting plate 52 away from the fixing plate 51, and the adhesive sheet 8 is located in the placement groove.

[0052] In this embodiment, a screw post is provided at the bottom of the fixing plate 51, and the screw post abuts against the bottom wall of the receiving groove 13. A screw is provided on the base 1, and the screw passes through the base 1 and connects with the screw post of the fixing plate 51 to achieve the fixing of the fixing plate 51 and the base 1.

[0053] In this embodiment, as shown in the appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7As shown, the first slot includes a recess 53 and a stop block 54. The recess 53 is located on the top of the fixing plate 51, and the stop block 54 is located inside the recess 53. The recess 53 is a square groove, and the stop block 54 is a square block. The stop block 54 is located at a right angle inside the recess 53. The vertical two side walls of the stop block are connected to the vertical two side walls of the recess 53, and the other two perpendicular side walls of the stop block correspond to the other two side walls of the recess 53 and are arranged at intervals, so that a wrapping groove is formed between the stop block 54 and the bottom wall of the recess 53.

[0054] In this embodiment, as shown in the appendix Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 As shown, the first locking block includes a protrusion 55 and a mating groove 56. The protrusion 55 is disposed at the bottom of the mounting plate 52 and mates with the recess 53. The mating groove 56 is disposed on one side of the protrusion 55 and penetrates the mounting plate 52. The protrusion 55 with the mating groove 56 corresponds to the wrapping groove, and the mating groove 56 mates with the stop block 54 so that the first locking block mates with the first locking groove and the two engage with each other.

[0055] Specifically, the fixing plate 51 can be installed on the base 1 first with screws. The fixing plate 51 and the first slot on the fixing plate 51 are both located in the receiving groove 13. Then, the mounting plate 52 is misaligned with the fixing plate 51. The first locking block of the mounting plate 52 corresponds to the first slot and is placed into the first slot. At this time, the mounting plate 52 and the fixing plate 51 are misaligned. Then, the fixing plate 51 is slid relative to the mounting plate 52. During the sliding process, the mating groove 56 corresponds to the stop block 54, and the bottom of the mating groove 56 slides into the wrapping groove to achieve the snap-fit.

[0056] In this embodiment, a rib 57 is provided on the side wall of the protrusion 55. The rib 57 abuts against the side wall of the groove 53, further increasing the stability between the first slot and the first block.

[0057] In this embodiment, a first trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 521 is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate 52, and a slide groove 511 is provided at the top of the fixing plate 51. A second trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 512 is provided in the slide groove 511. The first trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 521 and the second trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 512 cooperate with each other, and the first trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 521 is located in the slide groove 511.

[0058] As attached Figure 5 and attached Figure 8As shown, when the first locking block engages with the first locking slot, the second trapezoidal locking block 512 abuts against one side of the first trapezoidal locking block 521, thereby preventing the first locking block from disengaging from the first locking slot. Before the fixing plate 51 and the mounting plate 52 are engaged, the first trapezoidal locking block 521 is located to the left of the second trapezoidal locking block 512. As the fixing plate 51 slides relative to the mounting plate 52, the second trapezoidal locking block 512 can be moved closer to the first trapezoidal locking block 521, causing the first trapezoidal locking block 521 and the second trapezoidal locking block 512 to abut against each other. The fixing plate 51 or the mounting plate 52 (both are made of plastic) undergoes slight deformation until the first locking slot and the first locking block are fully engaged. At this point, the second trapezoidal locking block 512 is located to the left of the first trapezoidal locking block 521 (as shown in the attached diagram). Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the assembly can be completed; while the second trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 512 is used to restrict the movement of the first trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block 521.
