[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0031] See appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4 A camera vibration damping mounting structure includes a base 1, vibration damping columns 2, and fasteners 3. The base 1 has two corresponding baffles 11, and the camera P is located between the two baffles 11. There are two vibration damping columns 2, which are installed on the two baffles 11 respectively, and the two vibration damping columns 2 abut against the two side walls of the camera P. The vibration damping columns 2 are made of elastic material. There are two fasteners 3, which are installed on the two vibration damping columns 2 respectively, and both fasteners 3 are fixed to the camera P.

[0032] Specifically, during production and assembly, the two shock-absorbing columns 2 are first installed on the two baffles 11 respectively, then the camera P is placed between the two baffles 11, and then the camera P is fixed by two fasteners 3. The whole assembly process is simple and convenient.

[0033] When in use, the base 1 can be installed on products and equipment such as cars and drones. During the operation of the car or drone, the vibration generated will be transferred to the two baffles 11 of the base 1. At this time, the two shock-absorbing columns 2 can buffer and gradually eliminate the vibration force, making it difficult for the vibration force to be transmitted to the camera P, reducing the possibility of camera P shaking.

[0034] In summary, this camera vibration damping mounting structure, by designing vibration damping columns 2 and fasteners 3 on the baffle 11, allows the camera P and the base 1 to be softly connected through the vibration damping columns 2. This not only makes the structure simple and easy to assemble, but also eliminates the vibration force transmitted from the base 1, effectively reducing camera P shaking, maintaining image stability, preventing the appearance of jelly effect and water ripples, and improving the user experience.

[0035] See appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4 The shock absorber 2 can be installed on the baffle 11 by integral injection molding or by disassembly and assembly. For ease of understanding, this embodiment adopts the disassembly and assembly method. The baffle 11 is provided with a through hole 110, and the shock absorber 2 is provided with a groove 20 in the middle. The shock absorber 2 passes through the through hole 110 of the baffle 11 and is fitted onto the baffle 11 through the groove 20.

[0036] Specifically, when installing the shock absorber 2, squeeze the shock absorber 2 to deform it so that its size matches the through hole 110. After moving the shock absorber 2 inward through the through hole 110, release it. The shock absorber 2 will then return to its original position, allowing the groove 20 to be inserted into the baffle 11 located at the edge of the through hole 110, thereby fixing the shock absorber 2 on the baffle 11. Similarly, when disassembling the shock absorber 2, squeeze the shock absorber 2 to deform it so that its size matches the through hole 110. At this time, the groove 20 will detach from the baffle 11, and the shock absorber 2 can be moved outward through the through hole 110.

[0037] Therefore, the above structural design makes it easy to assemble and disassemble the shock absorber column 2, which facilitates workers in the early stage of assembling the shock absorber column 2 and in the later stage of disassembling and replacing the worn shock absorber column 2, thus improving convenience.

[0038] It should be noted that, in addition to the above structure, the shock-absorbing column 2 can also be detachably installed on the baffle 11 in other ways. Since there are various related installation methods, this utility model does not limit them.

[0039] See appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4 The fastener 3 is a bolt 30. The camera P has a screw hole P0. The head of the bolt 30 abuts against the shock absorber 2. The rod of the bolt 30 rotatably passes through the shock absorber 2 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole P0.

[0040] Specifically, during installation, after the shank of bolt 30 passes through the shock absorber 2, tighten bolt 30 so that its shank is locked with the screw hole P0 through the thread until the head of bolt 30 abuts against the shock absorber 2. This design facilitates the installation and removal of camera P.

[0041] It should be noted that, in addition to using bolt 30, fastener 3 can also use other connecting components. For example, when fastener 3 uses a locking pin with a locking block at the end (not shown in the figure), a corresponding locking position can be set on camera P (not shown in the figure). After the locking pin passes through the shock-absorbing column 2, the locking block and the locking position are engaged to complete the fixation. Since there are many types of related connecting components, they will not be listed one by one in this utility model.

[0042] See appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4 The head of the bolt 30 is provided with an internal hexagonal groove 300. This design makes it easy to tighten the bolt 30 with a screwdriver, thereby facilitating the disassembly and assembly of various components.

[0043] See appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 4 The shock-absorbing column 2 has the ability to buffer vibration because it is made of elastic material. The relevant elastic materials include silicone, rubber, TPE, etc. Since there are many types of elastic materials, this utility model does not limit them. In order to ensure the shock absorption performance, the shock-absorbing column 2 in this embodiment is preferably made of silicone material. Due to its good elasticity and stability, silicone can absorb and disperse energy when subjected to vibration, thereby reducing the transmission and diffusion of vibration force.

[0044] See appendix Figure 5 - Appendix Figure 10 A drone includes a body 4 and a camera shock-absorbing mounting structure. The base 1 is integrally formed with the body 4 so that two baffles 11 are fixedly mounted on the body 4. The camera P is mounted between the two baffles 11 by two shock-absorbing columns 2 and two fasteners 3.

[0045] Specifically, during assembly, first install the two shock-absorbing columns 2 onto the two baffles 11 respectively, then place the camera P between the two baffles 11, and then fix the camera P with two fasteners 3. The camera P can then be installed onto the body 4 of the drone. The whole assembly process is simple and convenient.

[0046] During the operation of the drone, the vibration generated will be transferred to the two baffles 11 through the body 4. At this time, the two shock-absorbing columns 2 can buffer and gradually eliminate the vibration force, reducing the possibility of the camera P on the drone shaking.

[0047] Therefore, because the drone has this camera vibration damping mounting structure, the camera P and the drone are softly connected through the vibration damping column 2, which can also eliminate the vibration force transmitted from the drone and ensure that the drone can shoot more stably.

[0048] It should be noted that components such as the rotor and circuit modules of the drone are all existing technologies, so this utility model will not describe them in detail, and the relevant structures are not shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0049] See appendix Figure 5 - Appendix Figure 10 The drone also includes a canopy 5. The connecting end of the canopy 5 is provided with two corresponding linkage plates 51. The two linkage plates 51 enclose the two baffles 11 and abut against the shock-absorbing columns 2 one by one. The two fasteners 3 are also rotatably connected to the two linkage plates 51 respectively.

[0050] Specifically, during assembly, first install the two shock-absorbing columns 2 onto the two baffles 11 respectively, then place the camera P between the two baffles 11, then surround the two baffles 11 with the two linkage plates 51 on the cover 5 and simultaneously abut against the two shock-absorbing columns 2, and finally fix the two linkage plates 51 and the camera P with two fasteners 3.

[0051] In summary, this structural design allows the body 4, camera P, and cover 5 to be softly connected through the shock-absorbing column 2. This not only facilitates the assembly of the body 4, cover 5, and camera P, improving assembly convenience, but also eliminates the vibration force transmitted from the body 4 and cover 5, effectively reducing camera P shaking.

[0052] See appendix Figure 5 - Appendix Figure 10 When the fastener 3 is a bolt 30 and the camera P has a screw hole P0, the head of the bolt 30 abuts against the linkage plate 51, and the rod of the bolt 30 rotatably passes through the linkage plate 51 and the shock-absorbing column 2 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole P0.

[0053] Specifically, during installation, after passing the shank of bolt 30 through the linkage plate 51 and the shock absorber 2 in sequence, tighten bolt 30 so that its shank is locked with the screw hole P0 of camera P through the thread. Continue to rotate bolt 30 until the head of bolt 30 abuts against linkage plate 51. This design facilitates the disassembly and assembly of body 4, cover 5 and camera P.

[0054] It should also be noted that, although embodiments of this application have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this application.
