[0028] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be practiced in a variety of ways beyond the specific embodiments described herein without departing from the scope of the present application, and it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present application can be practiced with or without these specific details. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0029] Secondly, the "one embodiment" or "embodiment" referred to herein means that the specific features, structures or characteristics can be included in at least one implementation of the present application. "In one embodiment" appearing in different places in the specification does not mean the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-5 , a rotating type privacy cover shielding camera structure is provided, which comprises a shielding assembly 200. The shielding assembly 200 effectively solves the problem that the adhesive of the existing shielding device will gradually loosen and eventually fall off under the action of vehicle bumping due to the decrease in adhesion after long-term use.

[0031] Specifically, the main body assembly 100 comprises a decorative cover 101 and a through slot 102, and the through slot 102 is arranged on one side of the bottom of the decorative cover 101; and

[0032] The shielding assembly 200 is arranged on the other side of the bottom of the decorative cover 101, and includes a viewing window 201, a fixed plate 202, a privacy cover 203, a limiting piece 204, a handle 205, a first mounting piece 206, a camera body 207, a second mounting piece 208, and a clamping block 209. The viewing window 201 is arranged on the other side of the bottom of the decorative cover 101. The fixed plate 202 is arranged on one side of the viewing window 201. The privacy cover 203 is arranged on one side of the fixed plate 202. The limiting piece 204 is arranged on one side of the privacy cover 203. The handle 205 is fixedly connected to the other side of the privacy cover 203. The fixed plate 202 is fixedly connected to the top of the decorative cover 101 through the first mounting piece 206. The camera body 207 is arranged on the other side of the fixed plate 202. The camera body 207 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 202 through the second mounting piece 208. The clamping block 209 is fixedly connected to one side of the camera body 207.

[0033] The decorative cover 101 plays a role in appearance decoration, so that the entire camera structure is more suitable for the installation environment and is integrated into the overall design style. The through groove 102 facilitates the connection of the device with the outside or the installation of other functional components, such as a roof lamp and a sunroof switch module.

[0034] The viewing window 201 is used for normal observation of the picture taken by the camera body 207 when the privacy cover does not shield the camera body 207, and ensures the normal operation of the camera body 207. The fixed plate 202 connects the privacy cover 203, the camera body 207, and other components together, so as to ensure the relative position stability of the components during the working process and the stability of the entire shielding structure. The privacy cover 203 is rotated to cover the camera body 207, so as to shield the camera lens and prevent the camera body 207 from taking a private picture. The limiting piece 204 can limit and support the privacy cover 203. The handle 205 facilitates the manual rotation of the privacy cover 203 by the user. The driver can easily rotate the privacy cover 203 to the desired position by holding the handle 205, so as to shield or open the camera body 207. The first mounting piece 206 firmly connects the fixed plate 202 and the decorative cover 101 together. The second mounting piece 208 firmly installs the camera body 207 on the fixed plate 202.

[0035] Specifically, the limiting piece 204 includes limiting blocks 204a fixedly connected to both sides of the privacy cover 203. One side of the fixed plate 202 is provided with a limiting groove 204b matched with the limiting blocks 204a.

[0036] When the driver operates the handle 205 to rotate the privacy cover 203, the limiting blocks 204a fixed on both sides of the privacy cover 203 move in the limiting grooves 204b opened on one side of the fixed plate 202, the limiting grooves 204b provide a track for the movement of the limiting blocks 204a, limit the movement direction, and ensure that the privacy cover 203 can only rotate according to the set rotation track.

[0037] Specifically, the limiting grooves 204b are two groups and symmetrically distributed on one side of the fixed plate 202.

[0038] The two groups of symmetrically distributed limiting grooves 204b are respectively matched with the limiting blocks 204a on both sides of the privacy cover 203 one by one, and when the privacy cover 203 rotates, the limiting blocks 204a on both sides move in the corresponding limiting grooves 204b. Since the limiting actions on both sides are symmetrical to each other, the uniform force on the privacy cover 203 during rotation can be ensured.

[0039] Specifically, the limiting member 204 further comprises a cylinder body 204c integrally formed with the limiting block 204a, one side of the inner cavity of the cylinder body 204c is fixedly connected with a spring 204d, one side of the spring 204d is fixedly connected with a limiting rod 204e, one side of the limiting rod 204e penetrates through the cylinder body 204c and extends to one side of the fixed plate 202.

[0040] During the rotation of the privacy cover 203, the limiting block 204a drives the cylinder body 204c to move together, when the privacy cover 203 approaches the limit position of opening or shielding the camera, the spring 204d is in a compressed or stretched state, and stores elastic potential energy, when reaching the limit position, the spring 204d releases the elastic potential energy and pushes the limiting rod 204e to extend to one side of the fixed plate 202.

[0041] Specifically, the limiting member 204 further comprises a first limiting hole 204f opened in the upper half of one side of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 204b, and the first limiting hole 204f is matched with the limiting rod 204e.

[0042] When the privacy cover 203 is rotated upward to the limit position of opening the camera body 207, the spring 204d pushes the limiting rod 204e to insert into the first limiting hole 204f in the upper half of one side of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 204b, at this time, the limiting rod 204e is tightly matched with the first limiting hole 204f, forming a mechanical locking structure.

[0043] Specifically, the limiting member 204 further comprises a second limiting hole 204g opened in the lower half of one side of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 204b, and the second limiting hole 204g is matched with the limiting rod 204e.

[0044] When the privacy cover 203 is rotated downward to the limit position of shielding the camera body 207, the spring 204d pushes the limiting rod 204e to insert into the second limiting hole 204g in the lower half of the one side of the inner cavity of the limiting slot 204b. Through the close cooperation of the limiting rod 204e and the second limiting hole 204g, the position of the privacy cover 203 is locked.

[0045] Specifically, the first mounting member 206 includes a mounting block 206a fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate 202, and a mounting cylinder 206b fixedly connected to the top of the decorative cover 101 and cooperating with the mounting block 206a. The inner cavities of the mounting block 206a and the mounting cylinder 206b are both screw-connected with mounting bolts 206c.

[0046] During installation, the mounting block 206a on one side of the fixed plate 202 is aligned with the mounting cylinder 206b on the top of the decorative cover 101, and then the mounting bolts 206c are screwed into the inner cavities of the mounting block 206a and the mounting cylinder 206b respectively. As the mounting bolts 206c are tightened, the mounting block 206a and the mounting cylinder 206b are tightly connected together, thereby firmly fixing the fixed plate 202 and the decorative cover 101.

[0047] Specifically, the mounting block 206a has multiple groups and is evenly distributed on the edge of the fixed plate 202, and the mounting cylinder 206b has multiple groups and is evenly distributed on the top of the decorative cover 101.

[0048] The multiple groups of evenly distributed mounting blocks 206a and mounting cylinders 206b enable the fixed plate 202 and the decorative cover 101 to be connected at multiple points. During the tightening of the mounting bolts 206c, each connection point is uniformly stressed, and the fixed plate 202 and the decorative cover 101 are tightly combined together.

[0049] Specifically, the second mounting member 208 includes a connecting block 208a fixedly connected to both sides of the camera body 207, and a connecting cylinder 208b fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 202 and cooperating with the connecting block 208a. The inner cavities of the connecting block 208a and the connecting cylinder 208b are both screw-connected with connecting bolts 208c.

[0050] During installation of the camera body 207, the connecting blocks 208a on both sides of the camera body 207 are aligned with the connecting cylinders 208b on the top of the fixed plate 202, and then the connecting bolts 208c are screwed into the inner cavities of the connecting blocks 208a and the connecting cylinders 208b. As the connecting bolts 208c are tightened, the connecting blocks 208a and the connecting cylinders 208b are tightly connected, thereby firmly installing the camera body 207 on the fixed plate 202.

[0051] Specifically, one side of the camera body 207 is provided with a lens cover 207a, and both sides of the lens cover 207a are fixedly connected with snap rings 207b and cooperate with the clamping block 209.

[0052] When the lens of the camera body 207 needs to be protected, the lens cover 207a is covered on the lens of the camera body 207, at this time, the clamping ring 207b on both sides of the lens cover 207a cooperates with the clamping block 209 on one side of the camera body 207, the clamping ring 207b clamps the clamping block 209, forming a buckle type connection structure.

[0053] In use, when the driver operates the handle 205 to rotate the privacy cover 203, the limiting blocks 204a fixed on both sides of the privacy cover 203 move in the two groups of limiting grooves 204b symmetrically distributed on one side of the fixed plate 202, ensuring that the privacy cover 203 is uniformly stressed and rotates along the set trajectory, and at the same time, the limiting blocks 204a will drive the cylinder 204c integrally formed therewith to move, when the privacy cover 203 approaches the limit position of opening or shielding the camera body 207, the spring 204d in the cylinder 204c is compressed or stretched to store elastic potential energy, and when reaching the limit position, the elastic potential energy is released to push the limiting rod 204e to extend to one side of the fixed plate 202, and is inserted into the first limiting hole 204f on the upper half or the second limiting hole 204g on the lower half of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 204b, locking the position of the privacy cover 203, so that the problem of easy leakage of privacy in the vehicle can be solved through the setting of the privacy cover 203.

[0054] At the same time, by aligning the multiple groups of mounting blocks 206a on one side of the fixed plate 202 with the multiple groups of mounting cylinders 206b on the top of the decorative cover 101, and tightening the mounting bolts 206c, the firm connection of the fixed plate 202 and the decorative cover 101 is realized; then, the connecting blocks 208a on both sides of the camera body 207 are aligned with the connecting cylinders 208b on the top of the fixed plate 202, and the connecting bolts 208c are tightened, so that the camera body 207 is stably installed on the fixed plate 202, thereby ensuring the relative position stability between the components, and enabling the entire shielding assembly 200 to form an organic whole, so that even if the fixed plate 202 is subjected to bumps and vibrations during the driving of the vehicle, the components will not be displaced or shaken, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the structure and avoiding the problems caused by loosening of the similar pasted shielding cover.

[0055] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting, and although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
