However, existing e-commerce product photography technologies suffer from several pain points that urgently need to be addressed. Firstly, traditional e-commerce product photography relies on manual operation, requiring repeated adjustments to camera position, angle, and parameters to achieve the desired effect. This manual adjustment method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also demands high levels of expertise from operators, resulting in lengthy shooting times for individual items and significantly reducing efficiency, failing to meet the demands of e-commerce platforms for rapidly uploading large quantities of products. Secondly, the design of the camera support structure is flawed. Currently, camera supports generally employ a fixed track design, requiring manual operation to adjust camera height, which is not only cumbersome but also difficult to achieve precise positioning. Furthermore, existing camera supports lack angle fine-tuning capabilities, failing to meet the diverse needs of e-commerce product photography for different shooting angles, thus affecting the quality and diversity of the captured images. Therefore, this utility model proposes an automatic camera shooting mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the problems in the existing e-commerce product shooting technology, such as the time-consuming and labor-intensive manual operation, the high cost and large footprint of professional equipment, and the defects in the design of camera bracket structure, which make it difficult to meet the needs of e-commerce for efficient and high-quality shooting. The present invention proposes an automatic camera shooting mechanism.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an automatic camera shooting mechanism, including a base, a lifting mechanism installed on the top of the base, the lifting mechanism being used to drive the camera to lift and lower to adjust the height; and an angle adjustment component installed on the side of the lifting mechanism, the angle adjustment component being used to fine adjust the camera angle.

[0005] Optionally, the lifting mechanism includes a bracket fixedly connected to the top of the base, a slide table mounted on the side of the bracket, and a slider slidably connected to the slide table.

[0006] Optionally, the lifting mechanism further includes a first servo motor mounted on the side of the bracket, the output end of the first servo motor being fixedly connected to a threaded rod, the threaded rod passing through the slider and being threadedly connected to it.

[0008] Optionally, the angle adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate installed on the side of the slider away from the slide table. Multiple sets of bearing seats are installed on the side of the adjustment plate away from the slider. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to each of the multiple sets of bearing seats, and one end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to the mounting plate.

[0009] Optionally, the angle adjustment assembly further includes a second servo motor mounted on the side of the adjustment plate near the slider.

[0014] This invention uses a first servo motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate, which in turn moves a slider smoothly on a slide table, thus automatically adjusting the camera height. Simultaneously, a second servo motor drives a worm gear transmission, which in turn rotates a rotating rod to fine-tune the camera angle. Compared to traditional shooting methods that require repeated manual adjustments to the camera position, this mechanism achieves automated adjustment of the camera height and angle, significantly shortening the shooting time for a single product and greatly improving shooting efficiency. In addition, the bolt and limit ring design in the angle adjustment component facilitates initial angle adjustment and locking, ensuring the convenience and stability of the adjustment process.

[0015] Furthermore, its compact structure effectively reduces site usage costs, and its automatic adjustment function avoids the purchase of expensive large equipment, reducing purchase costs. The application of a single-turn encoder can accurately sense the rotation angle of the rotating rod and realize automatic angle calibration, ensuring the accuracy of camera height and angle adjustment, and meeting the requirements of e-commerce product shooting for image quality and diversity.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model proposes an automatic camera shooting mechanism, including a base 1. The base 1 provides a stable support foundation for the entire shooting mechanism, ensuring the equipment remains stable during operation and preventing shaking from affecting the shooting effect. A lifting mechanism is installed on the top of the base 1. The lifting mechanism is used to drive the camera to lift and lower to adjust the height, enabling flexible shooting of products at different heights and effectively improving the applicability of the shooting. The lifting mechanism includes a bracket 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The bracket 2 serves as the main support frame of the lifting mechanism, providing a mounting carrier for components such as the slide table 4 and the first servo motor 3, ensuring the relative position stability of each component and enhancing the reliability of the overall structure. The slide table 4 is installed on the side of the bracket 2. The positions of the bracket 2 and the slide table 4 are fixed, providing a precise sliding track for the slider 12, reducing friction and offset during the movement of the slider 12, and ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the camera lifting and lowering movement. The slider 12 is slidably connected to the slide table 4. The slider 12 moves smoothly under the limiting action of the slide table 4. Through cooperation with the threaded rod 5, the rotation of the threaded rod 5 is converted into linear motion, thereby realizing the precise adjustment of the camera height. The lifting mechanism also includes a first servo motor 3 mounted on the side of the bracket 2. The first servo motor 3 is fixed in position and serves as the power source for the lifting mechanism, providing stable and controllable driving force to ensure the stability and efficiency of the camera lifting process. A threaded rod 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first servo motor 3. After starting, the first servo motor 3 drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate. Through the threaded transmission between the threaded rod 5 and the slider 12, the rotational motion of the motor is converted into the linear lifting motion of the slider 12, achieving precise control of the camera height to meet different shooting height requirements. The threaded rod 5 passes through the slider 12 and is threadedly connected to it. When the threaded rod 5 rotates, it drives the slider 12 to move. Through precise thread engagement, the slider 12 is smoothly lifted and lowered, thereby accurately adjusting the camera's height position.

[0029] The slider 12 has a mounting plate 6 on its side. The mounting plate 6 is L-shaped. The camera is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6. When the mounting plate 6 is raised, lowered and deflected, it drives the camera to move synchronously, realizing the raising and lowering and angle adjustment of the camera. The L-shaped design can effectively increase the stability of the camera installation, and at the same time facilitate the connection with the slider 12 and the angle adjustment component, improving the compactness and flexibility of the overall structure.

[0030] For further details, please refer to Figures 1 to 3The aforementioned shooting mechanism also includes an angle adjustment component installed on the side of the lifting mechanism. This component is used for fine-tuning the camera angle, meeting the diverse needs of e-commerce product photography for different shooting angles and improving the richness and quality of the captured images. The angle adjustment component includes an adjustment plate 15 installed on the side of the slider 12 away from the slide table 4. When the slider 12 moves, it drives the adjustment plate 15 to move synchronously, providing a base for the angle adjustment component. This allows for angle adjustment during camera lifting, enhancing the ease of operation and practicality of the shooting mechanism. Multiple sets of bearing seats 11 are installed on the side of the adjustment plate 15 away from the slider 12. A rotating rod 16 is rotatably connected to each of the bearing seats 11. The bearing seats 11 ensure smooth rotation of the rotating rod 16, reducing friction and wear during rotation and improving the accuracy and reliability of angle adjustment. One end of the rotating rod 16 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 6. When the rotating rod 16 rotates, it drives the mounting plate 6 to rotate synchronously, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the camera angle and meeting the needs of different shooting scenarios. The angle adjustment assembly also includes a second servo motor 7 mounted on the side of the adjustment plate 15 near the slider 12. The second servo motor 7 is fixed in position and serves as the power core of the angle adjustment assembly, providing stable and precise driving force to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of camera angle adjustment. The output end of the second servo motor 7 passes through the adjustment plate 15 and is fixedly connected to a worm gear 8. After starting, the second servo motor 7 drives the worm gear 8 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between the worm gear 8 and the worm wheel 14, the rotational motion of the motor is converted into the rotation of the rotating rod 16, achieving precise fine-tuning of the camera angle. A worm wheel 14 is provided on one side of the worm gear 8, meshing with it. The worm wheel 14 is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating rod 16. When the worm gear 8 rotates, it drives the worm wheel 14 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod 16 to rotate. Utilizing the self-locking characteristic of the worm gear transmission, the position of the camera angle after adjustment is ensured to be stable, preventing accidental rotation. Multiple sets of bolts 13 are provided on the adjusting plate 15. These bolts 13 pass through the adjusting plate 15 and are threadedly connected to the slider 12. One set of bolts 13 is rotatably connected to the adjusting plate 15, while the other sets of bolts 13 are slidably connected to it. Using one set of bolts 13 as a pivot, the adjusting plate 15 can be rotated under the limiting action of the other sets of bolts 13, thus adjusting the angle of the adjusting plate 15. After angle adjustment, the bolts 13 are simultaneously tightened to lock the adjusting plate 15, preventing accidental rotation and achieving convenient operation and stable fixation for angle adjustment. At least one set of limiting rings 10 are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating rod 16. These limiting rings 10 prevent the rotating rod 16 from sliding relative to the bearing seat 11, ensuring that the rotating rod 16 always rotates in its original position, further improving the accuracy and stability of angle adjustment.

[0031] Finally, a single-turn encoder 9 is installed at the end of the rotating rod 16 away from the mounting plate 6, which facilitates accurate sensing of the rotation angle of the rotating rod 16. This allows for automatic angle calibration through angle feedback, enabling high-precision control of the camera angle and meeting the stringent requirements for angle accuracy in e-commerce product photography.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the camera height needs to be adjusted, the first servo motor 3 is activated. The first servo motor 3 serves as the power source for the lifting mechanism, outputting a stable and controllable driving force to rotate the threaded rod 5, which is fixedly connected to its output end. Since the threaded rod 5 passes through and is threadedly connected to the slider 12, during the rotation of the threaded rod 5, the rotational motion of the motor is converted into the linear lifting motion of the slider 12 using the principle of threaded transmission.

[0033] The slider 12 moves smoothly under the limiting action of the slide table 4. The slide table 4 provides a precise sliding track for the slider 12, reducing friction and offset during the movement of the slider 12. A mounting plate 6 is provided on the side of the slider 12, and the camera is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6. Therefore, the lifting and lowering movement of the slider 12 drives the mounting plate 6 to lift and lower synchronously, thereby realizing the precise adjustment of the camera height to meet the shooting needs of products of different heights.

[0034] When fine-tuning of the camera angle is required, the second servo motor 7 is activated. The second servo motor 7, as the power core of the angle adjustment component, drives the worm gear 8, which is fixedly connected to its output end, to rotate.

[0035] The worm 8 meshes with the worm wheel 14, which is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating rod 16. When the worm 8 rotates, the meshing transmission between the worm and the worm wheel drives the worm wheel 14 to rotate, which in turn causes the rotating rod 16 to rotate. One end of the rotating rod 16 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 6, so the rotation of the rotating rod 16 will drive the mounting plate 6 to rotate synchronously, thereby achieving fine adjustment of the camera angle.

[0036] Multiple sets of bearing seats 11 are installed on the side of the adjusting plate 15 away from the slider 12. The rotating rod 16 is rotatably connected to these bearing seats 11. The bearing seats 11 ensure the smooth rotation of the rotating rod 16 and reduce friction and wear during rotation. At the same time, the limiting ring 10 fixedly connected to the outer ring of the rotating rod 16 prevents the rotating rod 16 from sliding relative to the bearing seats 11, ensuring that the rotating rod 16 always rotates in its original position, further improving the accuracy of angle adjustment.

[0037] In addition, the adjusting plate 15 is provided with multiple sets of bolts 13, one set of bolts 13 being rotatably connected to the adjusting plate 15, and the other sets of bolts 13 being slidably connected to the adjusting plate 15. Using this rotatably connected bolt 13 as a pivot, the adjusting plate 15 can be rotated under the limiting action of the other sets of bolts 13, allowing for initial angle adjustment. After angle adjustment is completed, the multiple sets of bolts 13 are tightened simultaneously to lock the adjusting plate 15 onto the slider 12, preventing accidental rotation and ensuring the stability of the camera angle after adjustment.

[0038] A single-turn encoder 9 is installed at the end of the rotating rod 16 furthest from the mounting plate 6. The single-turn encoder 9 can accurately sense the rotation angle of the rotating rod 16. By feeding back the sensed angle information to the control system, the control system can precisely control the second servo motor 7 according to the preset angle requirements, thereby achieving automatic calibration of the camera angle to meet the strict requirements for angle accuracy in e-commerce product photography.

[0039] The above specific embodiments are merely optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
