Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of underwater submersible camera devices, specifically an underwater submersible camera device. Background Technology

[0002] An underwater submersible camera is a video or image capture device specifically designed for shooting and recording in underwater environments. It is commonly used in scientific research, marine exploration, diving activities, military reconnaissance, and underwater film production. Underwater submersible cameras are characterized by their strong waterproof capabilities and ability to provide high-quality video and images in complex underwater environments.

[0003] The shortcomings of existing technology:

[0004] Most underwater camera devices currently in use often encounter water containing suspended particles, silt, algae, and fine organic matter, which float or move in the current. When the device submerges, the water flow brings these particles to the surface, where they may adhere, affecting the clarity of the footage. The speed and direction of the water flow, as well as the turbidity of the water, all influence the adhesion of these impurities, requiring operators to manually remove the device and clean them off—a tedious and inefficient process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an underwater submersible camera device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an underwater submersible camera device, comprising an underwater camera, with cleaning mechanisms fixedly connected to both sides of the underwater camera, and adjustment mechanisms connected to both ends of the underwater camera, wherein the two cleaning mechanisms include:

[0007] Two air pumps are fixedly connected to both sides of the underwater camera;

[0008] Two connecting arc-shaped plates are respectively fixedly connected to the output ends of two air pumps;

[0009] Multiple air holes are provided, and the multiple air holes are respectively opened on the inner surface of the two connecting arc-shaped plates;

[0010] A protective cover is attached to the outer surface of the underwater camera to protect the camera components.

[0011] An oleophobic coating is applied to the outer surface of the protective cover.

[0012] Preferably, the two adjustment mechanisms include:

[0013] Two connecting plates are connected to both ends of the underwater camera;

[0014] Hydraulic rods, two of which are respectively welded to the outer surfaces of two connecting plates;

[0015] Two rotating shafts are fixedly connected to the output ends of two hydraulic rods, and one side of each rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the outer surface of two connecting arc plates.

[0016] Preferably, a connecting tube is fixedly connected to the end of the underwater camera, a protective sleeve is fixedly connected to the connection between the connecting tube and the underwater camera, and the underwater camera's wire is connected inside the connecting tube.

[0017] Preferably, a base is welded to one end of each of the two air pumps, and a mounting block is connected to one side of each of the two bases. The outer surfaces of the two mounting blocks are welded to both ends of the outer surface of the underwater camera.

[0018] Preferably, one end of the underwater camera is connected to a flange, and the outer surface of the flange is provided with limiting holes that match multiple bolts.

[0019] Preferably, the underwater camera model is SX-CR-02.

[0020] Preferably, the protective sleeve is made of silicone to prevent moisture and humidity from entering the connection point, avoid water seepage into the underwater camera or connecting pipe, prevent electrical components from getting damp or short-circuiting, and ensure that the equipment works normally in the underwater environment.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] 1. The underwater submersible camera device includes a debris removal mechanism comprising two air pumps, two connecting arc-shaped plates, multiple air holes, a protective cover, and an oleophobic coating. The two air pumps are driven to spray gas through the multiple air holes onto the surface of the oleophobic coating, thereby removing debris adhering to the surface. This eliminates the need for manual debris removal, improving worker efficiency and preventing debris from affecting the clarity of the underwater camera footage. Furthermore, the oleophobic coating reduces the adhesion of seaweed, algae, or other minute particles, and keeps the protective cover smooth, reducing the adhesion of dirt.

[0023] 2. The underwater submersible camera device includes two adjustment mechanisms, each comprising a connecting plate, a hydraulic rod, and a rotating shaft. Driving the hydraulic rod causes the connecting arc-shaped plate to move to one side under the action of the rotating shaft, so that the connecting arc-shaped plate is no longer located on the outer surface of the underwater camera. This facilitates the adjustment of the position of the impurity cleaning mechanism and prevents the impurity cleaning mechanism from obstructing part of the underwater camera's image after cleaning impurities, thereby affecting the underwater camera's image quality.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution for an underwater submersible camera device: It includes an underwater camera 1, with cleaning mechanisms 2 fixedly connected to both sides of the underwater camera 1, and adjustment mechanisms 3 connected to both ends of the underwater camera 1. The two cleaning mechanisms 2 include: two air pumps 201 fixedly connected to both sides of the underwater camera 1; two connecting arc-shaped plates 202 fixedly connected to the output ends of the two air pumps 201; multiple air holes 203 respectively opened on the inner surface of the two connecting arc-shaped plates 202; and a protective cover 204 connected to... On the outer surface of the underwater camera 1, an oleophobic coating 205 is applied to protect the camera components. The oleophobic coating 205 is applied to the outer surface of the protective cover 204. Two air pumps 201 are driven to spray gas onto the surface of the oleophobic coating 205 through multiple air holes 203, thereby cleaning away impurities adhering to the surface of the oleophobic coating 205. This eliminates the need for manual cleaning of impurities, improves the work efficiency of the staff, and prevents impurities from affecting the clarity of the underwater camera 1. In addition, the oleophobic coating 205 can reduce the adhesion of seaweed, algae or other small substances. The oleophobic coating 205 can keep the protective cover 204 smooth and reduce the adhesion of dirt.

[0035] The two adjustment mechanisms 3 include two connecting plates 301 connected to both ends of the underwater camera 1, hydraulic rods 302 welded to the outer surfaces of the two connecting plates 301, and two rotating shafts 303 fixedly connected to the output ends of the two hydraulic rods 302. One side of each rotating shaft 303 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the two connecting arc plates 202. Driving the hydraulic rods 302, the rotating shafts 303 cause the connecting arc plates 202 to move to one side, so that the connecting arc plates 202 are no longer located on the outer surface of the underwater camera 1. This facilitates the adjustment of the position of the impurity cleaning mechanism 2 and prevents the impurity cleaning mechanism 2 from obstructing part of the underwater camera 1's image after cleaning impurities, thus affecting the image quality of the underwater camera 1.

[0036] The underwater camera 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 5 at its end. A protective sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to the connection between the connecting pipe 5 and the underwater camera 1. The connecting pipe 5 is connected to the wires of the underwater camera 1 to provide power for the underwater camera 1 to work continuously. The hydraulic rod 302 is model HYD-WP-1000.

[0037] Each of the two air pumps 201 has a base 7 welded to one end, and a mounting block 6 is connected to one side of each of the two bases 7. The outer surfaces of the two mounting blocks 6 are welded to both ends of the outer surface of the underwater camera 1, which facilitates the later disassembly, assembly, maintenance and cleaning of the impurity mechanism 2.

[0038] One end of the underwater camera 1 is connected to a flange 8. The outer surface of the flange 8 is provided with limiting holes that match multiple bolts 9, which facilitates the disassembly, assembly and maintenance of the camera parts of the underwater camera 1.

[0039] The underwater camera model number is SX-CR-02.

[0040] The protective sleeve 4 is made of silicone, which prevents water and moisture from entering the connection point, avoids water from penetrating into the underwater camera 1 or the connecting pipe 5, prevents electrical components from getting damp or short-circuiting, and ensures that the equipment works normally in the underwater environment.

[0041] This device drives two air pumps 201, which use multiple air holes 203 to spray gas onto the surface of the oleophobic coating 205, thereby cleaning away impurities adhering to the surface of the oleophobic coating 205. This eliminates the need for manual cleaning, improving the work efficiency of the staff and preventing impurities from affecting the clarity of the underwater camera 1. The oleophobic coating 205 can also reduce the adhesion of seaweed, algae, or other small substances. The oleophobic coating 205 keeps the protective cover 204 smooth, reducing the adhesion of dirt. Subsequently, the hydraulic rod 302 is driven, and under the action of the rotating structure of the rotating shaft 303, the connecting arc plate 202 is moved to one side, so that the connecting arc plate 202 is no longer located on the outer surface of the underwater camera 1. This facilitates the adjustment of the position of the impurity cleaning mechanism 2, and prevents the impurity cleaning mechanism 2 from obstructing part of the underwater camera 1's image after cleaning the impurities, thus affecting the image quality of the underwater camera 1.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
