[0036] Specifically, in combination with as Figure 3 And Figure 6As shown, the two sides of the fixing bracket 2 form two side plates 22, the front ends of the side plates abut against the frame profile, the limiting groove 21 is recessed between the front ends of the two side plates, the movement stroke of the sliding block 4 is limited between the front end portions of the two side plates 22, the rear end portions of the two side plates 22 are respectively outwardly protruded with a buckle 23, the two sides of the rear end of the accommodating cavity 11 can be respectively formed with a buckle groove, the buckle 23 is buckled into the buckle groove after the fixing bracket 2 is inserted into the accommodating cavity 11 to form a retreat prevention limiting, so that the fixing bracket 2 is limited in the frame profile, and the limiting groove 21 forms a fixed cavity in the accommodating cavity. Of course, in order to make the fixing bracket more stable, the bottom of the fixing bracket 2 can also be arranged on the bottom surface inside the frame profile 1. In the embodiment, the rear segment of the two side plates 22 forms a cantilever type connecting segment 220, and the buckle 23 is protruded with a triangular buckle (the triangular buckle can form a guide slope) at the end of the connecting segment 220. The frame profile 1 includes opposite front plate 101 and back plate 102, the window 12 is located on the front plate 101, the back plate 102 is formed with the socket 14 for the fixing bracket to pass through, the accommodating cavity 11 is located in the socket 14, and the buckle 23 is buckled into the inner wall of the back plate 102 when the front end of the side plate 22 abuts against the inner wall of the front plate 101 to form a retreat prevention limiting, so that the fixing bracket 2 is buckled in the accommodating cavity 11 of the frame profile 1 and is limited.

[0037] The frame profile 1 can form a rectangular frame, and the frame profile 1 can further include opposite upper plate 103 and bottom plate (not shown in the figure). The sliding hole 13 is arranged on the upper plate 103, and the opening direction of the sliding hole 13 is perpendicular to the opening direction of the window 12. The advantage of such arrangement is that the installation of the sliding block 4 is less likely to interfere with the installation of other components (such as the camera 3) of the equipment, and in the case of a notebook computer, the part of the sliding block 4 exposed to the frame profile 1 will not interfere with the closing of the notebook computer. Further, a plug groove 1011 for the front end of the two side plates 22 of the fixing bracket 2 to be inserted and limited can be formed in the inner wall of the front plate 101, and the plug groove 1011 corresponds to the front of the socket 14.

[0038] As Figures 2 to 6 and Figure 8As shown, the middle of the front end of the fixed support 2 is recessed with a mounting groove 24 for mounting the camera 3, and the camera 3 mounted in the mounting groove 24 is fixed behind the limiting groove 21.

In the fixed support 2, a fixed block 25 is further arranged in front of the mounting groove 24, the two sides of the fixed block 25 can be fixed on the fixed support 2 to limit the camera 3, and the middle of the fixed block 25 is provided with a first through hole 251 not shielding the camera 3, and the lens of the camera 3 can be extended into the first through hole 251, and the limiting groove 32 is located in front of the fixed block 25, and the limiting protrusion 411 at the bottom of the sliding block 4 abuts against below the fixed block 25. As shown, Figure 8 When the sliding block 4 is in the sliding cavity (limiting groove 21) formed between the fixed support 2 and the frame profile 1, the fixed support 2 and the sliding block 4 still have a certain gap in the cavity 11, so that the sliding block 4 group can better move in the limiting groove 21, and the fixed support 2 cooperates with the part of the sliding block 4 to form the limiting groove 21, so as to have more space for the movement of the sliding block 4, and the sliding block 4 can be limited therein, preventing the sliding block 4 from being separated from the fixed support 2 to form the sliding cavity (limiting groove 21) between the cavity 11 and the frame profile.

[0039] As shown, Figure 4 As shown, Figure 5 As shown, the sliding block 4 includes a baffle 41 slidably limiting in the limiting groove 21 through the sliding hole 13 and selectively shielding the camera, the limiting protrusion 411 can be extended backward from the bottom of the baffle 42, the baffle 41 is formed with a certain length, one side of the baffle 41 is provided with a second through hole 411 for exposing the camera, and the other side of the baffle 42 forms a shielding part 412 shielding the camera. In order to enable the baffle 41 after sliding to selectively shield the camera 3, the length of the sliding hole 13 is greater than the length of the baffle 41, and the length of the limiting groove 21 is greater than or equal to the length of the sliding hole 13, so as to satisfy the movement of the baffle 41. And the length of the limiting groove 21 satisfies that the second through hole 412 in the baffle 41 after sliding is aligned with the camera 3 (not shielding the camera 3), and also satisfies that the shielding part 413 in the baffle 41 after sliding can shield the camera 3 (as shown, Figure 9 、 Figure 10 As shown).

[0040] Furthermore, the upper end of the baffle 41 is provided with a limiting plate 42 that is not inserted into the sliding hole 13. The limiting plate 42 limits and blocks the sliding hole 13. The limiting plate 42 may be provided with several anti-slip strips or anti-slip grooves. In this example, it is an anti-slip strip 421. The limiting plate 42 forms the operating part of the slider, and the anti-slip strip 421 can be easily pushed. A baffle plate 43 can also be connected to the baffle 41. The baffle plate 43 is provided with a transparent window 431 for exposing the camera 3 corresponding to the second through hole 412. The baffle plate 43 can be a transparent acrylic plate, with only a part of it uncoated. The uncoated part is the transparent window. The baffle plate 43 can prevent the camera from being contaminated by dust. Of course, a baffle plate can also be directly installed in the window 12 on the frame profile 1.

When slider 4 moves to the left, camera 3 can capture images through the square transparent window (second through hole and transparent window) reserved on slider.

[0042] This utility model discloses a camera mounting structure with a privacy cover. When installing the camera 3, it is pre-fixed on the fixed bracket 2. Then, a slider 4 can be inserted into the sliding hole 13. The slider 4 forms a privacy cover that selectively blocks the camera. The fixed bracket 2 is then inserted into the cavity 11 and directly limited by the snap-fit ​​structure. The slider 4 can slide and also forms a limit with the fixed bracket 2. When the fixed bracket 2 is inserted into the cavity 11 and limited, the limiting groove 21 at the front end of the fixed bracket 2 forms a sliding cavity for the slider 4 to slide, which can ensure the installation stability of the slider 4, thereby forming a stable moving space and reducing the need for external fixation such as screw fixation. While meeting the function, the design of the slider can also be simpler and more compact, and the overall installation is also easier.

[0043] The camera with a privacy cover of this invention uses a slider 4 to slide and cover the camera 3, thus preventing privacy leaks caused by unauthorized activation of the camera 3. Furthermore, the design of the slider 4 and the installation method of the fixing bracket 2 require minimal modification to the frame profile 1, facilitating the modification and upgrading of existing products. In addition, this invention is simple to operate, unlikely to interfere with other components or external parts of the device, and its installation structure is more streamlined, making it easier to promote and apply.

[0044] The above embodiments and figures are not intended to limit the product form and style of this utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of this utility model.
