Those skilled in the art will understand that users or manufacturers may use different names or terms to refer to the same component or part. This specification and claims do not distinguish components or parts by differences in name, but rather by differences in function.

[0070] Existing posture detection instruments, especially foot detection instruments, typically have posture cameras fixed on a column, which cannot rotate left or right, limiting their detection range.

[0071] This invention enables multi-angle observation of body posture by setting up a body posture camera that can rotate left and right.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 5 The diagram shown is a structural diagram of a body camera rotation mechanism 1 provided in an embodiment of the utility model, wherein... Figure 1 Exploded view of camera rotation mechanism 1 (I); Figure 2 for Figure 1 The front view (where the dashed lines represent the hidden parts); Figure 3 Exploded view of camera rotation mechanism 1 (II); Figure 4 This is an assembly diagram of the column adapter bracket 101, the body camera 11, and the camera bracket 13; Figure 5 for Figure 1 The assembled 3D image.

[0073] The body camera rotation mechanism 1 includes an upper column 10 and a body camera 11. The upper column 10 is a bent structure. A through hole 103 is opened horizontally on the upper column 10. The body camera 11 is installed in the through hole 103 and rotates left and right relative to the vertical axis L of the through hole 103. The rotation mode of the body camera 11 is single-axis rotation.

[0074] Specifically, the upper column 10 includes a first upper column 100, a column adapter bracket 101, and a second upper column 102, which are sequentially assembled. The first upper column 100 has a first plane 100a, a bending surface 100b, and a second plane 100c connected sequentially from bottom to top. The first plane 100a faces the human body to be tested, the bending surface 100b is inclined upward, the first plane 100b and the second plane 100c are parallel to each other and not coplanar, and the second plane 100c is located behind the first plane 100a. Preferably, the first plane 100a, the bending surface 100b, and the second plane 100c are integrally formed, that is, the bending surface 100b is formed by bending the extension of the first plane 100a backward (towards the second upper column 102), and the second plane 100c is formed by bending the bending surface 100b upward (vertically upward). A display device 12 is mounted on the second plane 100c. The display device 12 is electrically connected to the body posture camera 11 and is used to display the body posture information of the human body to be detected. The structure of the column adapter bracket 101 and the second upper column 102 corresponds to that of the first upper column 100. The second plane 100c of the upper column 10 serves as the accommodating space for the display device 12, such that the display surface 120 of the display device 12 is approximately coplanar with the first plane 100a (e.g., ...). Figure 13 This improves the aesthetics of the body camera rotation mechanism 1.

[0075] The through hole 103 includes a first through hole 100d and a second through hole 101a; the first through hole 100d is formed on the first plane 100a of the first upper column 100; the column adapter bracket 101 forms a second through hole 101a corresponding to the position of the first through hole 100d, and a support platform 101b is provided at the bottom edge of the second through hole 101a; the body camera 11 is mounted on the support platform 101b and passes through the second through hole 101a and the first through hole 100d. A first circular hole 101c is formed on the vertical axis of the support platform 101b (corresponding to the vertical axis L of the through hole 103); the body camera 11 is fixed together with the column adapter bracket 101 using a locking element corresponding to the first circular hole 101c, such as a screw 14, and the single-axis rotation of the body camera 11 is achieved by the single-point and non-tightening fixing method of the screw 14.

[0076] If the body camera 11 is directly mounted on the support platform 101b using screws 14, the bottom of the body camera 11 will rub against each other when it is manually rotated, causing damage. Therefore, in this embodiment, the body camera 11 is first mounted on the camera bracket 13, and then fixed to the support platform 101b using screws 14 and the first circular hole 101c. The camera bracket 13 and the body camera 11 rotate in conjunction. This reduces the damage to the body camera 11 caused by friction at its bottom.

[0077] Specifically, the camera bracket 13 includes a base plate 130 and two side plates 131 connected to the base plate 130. The body camera 11 is placed on the base plate 130, and both sides of the body camera 11 are fixed to the two side plates 131 respectively. A third circular hole 131a is opened on each of the two side plates 131. The body camera 11 is fixed to the two side plates 131 by another locking element, such as another screw. A second circular hole (not shown in the figure) is opened on the base plate 130 at the position corresponding to the first circular hole 101c. The screw 14 passes through the first circular hole 101c and the second circular hole in sequence to connect to the body camera 11.

[0078] The column adapter bracket 101 includes an upper bracket 101d and a lower bracket 101f. The structure of the upper bracket 101d corresponds to that of the first upper column 101, and the lower bracket 101f is connected to the bottom end of the upper bracket 101d. In practical applications, the first upper column 100, the body camera 11, the camera bracket 13, the upper bracket 101d, and the second upper column 102 of the body camera rotation mechanism 1 are first assembled together, and then installed on the lower column 21 via the lower bracket 101f. The lower bracket 101f is assembled inside the lower column 21, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0079] Because the shell 100e of the first upper column 100 inside the through hole 103 in the upper column 10 (such as...) Figure 9 The detection angle specification of the body camera 11 must limit the maximum angle of left and right rotation of the body camera 11 to avoid invalid detection angles. The maximum angle range is 7° to 20°, and preferably, the maximum angle of left and right rotation is 7°.

[0080] like Figures 6 to 11 The diagram shows the rotation state of the body camera 11. Among them, Figure 6 This is a front view of the body camera 11 in its unrotated state. Figure 7 This is a front view of the body camera 11 rotated 7° to the left. Figure 8 This is a front view of the body camera 11 rotated 7° to the right. Figure 9 This is a front view of the body camera 11 in its unrotated state (viewed from the front of the body camera 11, at an angle of approximately 45° downwards). Figure 10 This is a front view of the body camera 11 rotated 7° to the right. Figure 11 This is a front view of the body camera 11 rotated 7° to the left. The body camera 11 can be rotated left and right by manually moving it.

[0081] In this embodiment of the invention, "left" and "right" are described based on the direction in which the human body to be detected faces the body camera 11. Furthermore, terms such as "lateral," "longitudinal," "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," indicating orientation, positional relationship, or parameters, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used solely for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, specific size, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention.

[0082] Figures 12 to 14 The diagram shown is a structural diagram of another embodiment of the body posture detection device 2 provided by this utility model, wherein... Figure 12 This is a front view of the posture detection device 2. Figure 13 This is a side view of the body posture detection device 2. Figure 14 This is a top view of the body posture detection device 2. The body posture detection device 2 includes a platform 20, a lower column 21, and the body posture camera rotation mechanism 1 in the above embodiment.

[0083] Specifically, the bottom end of the lower column 21 is connected to the platform 20, and the top end is connected to the upper column 10 of the body camera rotation mechanism 1. Preferably, the first plane 100a of the first upper column 100 is coplanar with the surface 210 of the lower column 21 and the display surface 120 of the display device 12, so as to improve the aesthetics and continuity of the physical examination equipment 2.

[0084] like Figure 12 The vertical distance H between the horizontal center axis 110 of the body camera 11 and the plane 200 of the platform 20 is 80cm to 120cm. Preferably, the vertical distance H is 1m, which can basically meet the detection range of all human bodies.

[0085] like Figure 14 The diagram illustrates the change in the detection range of the body camera 11 when it is manually rotated. The area between range indicator lines 201 and 204 represents the detection range when the body camera 11 is rotated 7° to the left; the area between range indicator lines 202 and 205 represents the detection range when the body camera 11 is not rotated; and the area between range indicator lines 203 and 206 represents the detection range when the body camera 11 is rotated 7° to the right.

[0086] The posture detection device 2 also includes an image processing unit (not shown), electrically connected to the posture camera 11 and the display device 12. The image processing unit, such as a processor, is used to analyze the posture images acquired by the posture camera 11 and display the analysis results on the display device 12.

[0087] In this embodiment, the maximum angle of left and right rotation of the body camera 11 is 7°, which is obtained based on the size of the platform 20 and the range of the housing 100e inside the through hole 103.

[0088] In another embodiment, the body camera rotation mechanism 1 can also be used in the field of foot detection.

[0089] In summary, this utility model uses screws 14 to fix the column adapter bracket 101, camera bracket 13, and body camera 11 together, and achieves left and right rotation of the body camera 11 through a single-point, non-tightening method. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. The body camera rotation mechanism 1 in this utility model can realize multi-angle detection of the user's body posture, bringing users a brand-new experience.

[0090] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
