[0036] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a self-folding video conferencing terminal, including a mounting platform 1 and a terminal camera 3.

[0037] Installation and structural features of mounting platform 1

[0038] Mounting platform 1 is specifically installed on the conference table. The top surface of mounting platform 1 is flush with the top surface of the conference table. This design allows mounting platform 1 to be flipped when not in use, without affecting the flatness of the table or becoming an obstacle during use. Mounting platform 1 has a flip-through hole 11 in its center. The shape and size of the flip-through hole 11 are precisely designed to perfectly fit flip platform 2. Self-attracting magnetic sheets 111 are provided on both the front and rear walls of the flip-through hole 11. The self-attracting magnetic sheets 111 have sufficient magnetic strength to quickly attract flip platform 2 when it approaches, ensuring that flip platform 2 can automatically and quickly retract and store itself without the need for electricity, thus reducing costs.

[0039] II. Structural and Functional Relationship between the Flip-up Table 2 and the Terminal Camera 3

[0040] The terminal camera 3 is mounted at the center of the top of the flip platform 2. The terminal camera 3 is a key component for image acquisition in video conferencing, possessing high-definition image capture capabilities to meet the image quality requirements of video conferencing. The flip platform 2, serving as the support and rotating carrier for the terminal camera 3, is crucial to the ease of use of the video conferencing terminal due to its structural design. Both the front and rear sides of the flip platform 2 are equipped with magnetic adsorption sheets 21, which have opposite magnetic properties to the self-attracting magnetic sheets 111. When the front and rear sides of the flip platform 2 are flipped close to the front and rear self-attracting magnetic sheets 111, due to the principle of magnetic attraction, the magnetic adsorption sheets 21 and 111 tightly bond together, enabling not only rapid flipping, adsorption, positioning, and storage operations, but also preventing the flip platform 2 from accidentally popping out when stored.

[0041] III. Working principle of locking groove 22, rotary groove 5 and auxiliary locking component 4

[0042] Furthermore, the center of both the front and rear sides of the tilting platform 2 is provided with inwardly recessed locking grooves 22. The shape and size of the locking grooves 22 match the auxiliary locking component 4, and their depth and width are reasonably designed to ensure the accuracy and stability of the auxiliary locking component 4 during the locking process. A rotating groove 5 is provided on the front side inside the mounting platform 1. The rotating groove 5 provides rotation space for the auxiliary locking component 4, and its internal shape is adapted to the locking disc 41 in the auxiliary locking component 4, which can limit the rotation range of the locking disc 41 and ensure that it rotates within a predetermined trajectory. The rotating groove 5 and the locking grooves 22 tilted to the front combine to form a disc-shaped chamber. This structural design allows the locking disc 41 to smoothly enter the locking groove 22 from the rotating groove 5 during the locking process, achieving precise locking of the tilting platform 2.

[0043] The auxiliary locking component 4 specifically includes: a locking disc 41 rotatably installed inside the rotating groove 5, the locking disc 41 being configured to conform to the internal shape of the rotating groove 5. The edge of the locking disc 41 can be designed with a certain curvature to facilitate smoother movement in and out of the rotating groove 5 and locking recess 22 during rotation. The locking disc 41 is made of a metal material with certain strength and wear resistance to ensure its reliability during repeated use. A rotating cap 42 is distributed at the bottom front end of the mounting platform 1 and is aligned with the center of the top of the locking disc 41. The design of the rotating cap 42 facilitates manual operation by the user. When the flip platform 2 is flipped to the front and the locking recess 22 aligns with the rotating groove 5, rotating the rotating cap 42 drives the locking disc 41 to rotate, causing part of the locking disc 41 to enter the locking recess 22, thereby achieving auxiliary locking of the flip platform 2. This auxiliary locking method further enhances the stability of the flip platform 2 in use, preventing the flip platform 2 from flipping due to accidental collisions or other reasons during video conferencing, thus preventing disruption to the normal operation of the video conference.

[0044] 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.

[0045] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0046] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
