[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0035] refer to Figure 1-4 A specific embodiment of this utility model provides a magnetic protective case for an action camera, comprising:

[0036] First frame 1, the camera is adapted within the first frame 1;

[0037] The second frame 5 is snapped into the inlet 19 of the first frame 1 and magnetically attached to the first frame 1. The camera is limited within the first frame 1 by the second frame 5.

[0038] The operation port is located on the periphery of the first frame 1 and corresponds to the camera's buttons and battery.

[0039] To protect cameras, they are currently often housed in camera cages. These cages typically secure the camera with screws, but only the shutter buttons are exposed; other buttons and batteries are enclosed. This requires opening the cage for operation, battery replacement, or charging, making the process cumbersome and inconvenient. In this application, the camera is placed into the first frame 1 through an inlet 19, fitting snugly against the inner wall of the first frame 1. The first frame 1 effectively protects the camera's perimeter. The second frame 5 is attached to the first frame 1 via a snap-fit ​​mechanism and magnetically attached, allowing for quick separation of the first and second frames while maintaining a stable connection. The operating port facilitates user operation of the camera's buttons and battery replacement without repeatedly disassembling the first and second frames 1 and 5, significantly improving portability. Overall, this application can protect the camera, be quickly installed on or detached from the camera, and is easy for the user to operate.

[0040] In this application, the camera is installed on the camera bracket using common connection methods such as snap-fit ​​or screw connection.

[0041] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0042] The first slide 9, two sets of the first slide 9 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the inlet 19 of the first frame 1 and are arranged in parallel;

[0043] Slider 15, two sets of sliders 15 are fixedly connected to the side of the second frame 5 near the camera, and slider 15 is slidably connected in the first slide groove 9 and limited in the first slide groove 9.

[0044] Before the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 are engaged, the slider 15 is first placed into the first groove 9, and then the second frame 5 is pushed, causing the slider 15 to slide within the first groove 9 until engagement is complete. The second frame 5 gradually moves along the inlet 19 of the first frame 1 until it covers the inlet 19, thus completing the engagement.

[0045] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0046] The first limiting block 10 is fixedly connected to the first end of the first slide groove 9, and a first gap (not marked in the figure) is provided between the first limiting block 10 and the bottom wall of the first slide groove 9.

[0047] The second limiting block 16 is fixedly connected to the first end of the slider 15 and has a second gap (not marked in the figure) between it and the second frame 5. The first limiting block 10 is adapted to the second gap, and the second limiting block 16 is adapted to the first gap.

[0048] When the second frame 5 drives the slider 15 to slide in the first groove 9 until the second limiting block 16 slides into the first gap and the first limiting block 10 is located in the second gap, the first limiting block 10 and the second limiting block 16 are engaged, that is, the engagement between the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 in the vertical direction of the second frame 5 is completed. Then the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 are magnetically attracted, thereby achieving a stable connection between the first frame 1 and the second frame 5.

[0049] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0050] The second slide 11, two sets of the second slide 11 are symmetrically opened on the top surface of the first frame 1, that is, opened at the edge of the inlet 19;

[0051] Foam pads 18, two sets of foam pads 18 are symmetrically installed on the side of the second frame 5 near the camera, and are set in correspondence with the second slide groove 11. The foam pads 18 abut against the second frame 5 and the camera.

[0052] The foam pad 18 and the slider 15 are set parallel to each other in their sliding directions. The foam pad 18 moves in the second slide groove 11 in a direction parallel to the first slide groove 9. The second slide groove 11 is the clearance groove for the foam pad 18. When the second frame 5 moves gradually along the insertion port 19 of the first frame 1, the foam pad 18 moves in the second slide groove 11. After the foam pad 18 contacts the camera in the first frame 1, it begins to deform elastically. When the second frame 5 is installed in place, the foam pad 18 is completely abutted against the camera, that is, the foam pad 18 abuts against the second frame 5 and the camera. This setting can prevent the camera from shaking between the first frame 1 and the second frame 5.

[0053] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0054] Bottom edge plate 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the first frame 1 away from the inlet 19 and is set to abut against the edge of the camera inside the first frame 1.

[0055] When the camera is inserted into the first frame 1 through the inlet 19, one side of the camera rests on the bottom edge plate 8, which avoids the camera lens and will not affect the camera lens; after the second frame 5 is engaged with the first frame 1, the camera is pressed against the bottom edge plate 8 by the foam pad 18.

[0056] The solution has been further optimized, and the operation ports include:

[0057] The first opening 2, the second opening 3, and the third opening 4 are respectively opened on the peripheral side wall of the first frame 1. The first opening 2 corresponds to the camera battery, the second opening 3 corresponds to the camera button, and the third opening 4 corresponds to the camera power button.

[0058] The operation buttons around the camera are operated through different locations and corresponding operation ports, avoiding repeated disassembly and reassembly of the first frame 1 and the second frame 5, thus improving portability.

[0059] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0060] Protrusion 7 is fixedly connected to the edge of the inlet 19;

[0061] The groove 6 is formed on the side wall of the second frame 5 and is adapted to the protrusion 7.

[0062] When the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 are engaged, the protrusion 7 fits perfectly into the groove 6, effectively preventing the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 from shaking against each other.

[0063] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0064] The first mounting port 12 is located on the side of the protrusion 7 near the bottom wall of the groove 6;

[0065] The third mounting port 14 is opened on the bottom wall of the groove 6 and is set in correspondence with the first mounting port 12. Magnets are installed in the first mounting port 12 and the third mounting port 14 respectively, and the magnets in the first mounting port 12 and the third mounting port 14 are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0066] When the protrusion 7 fits perfectly into the groove 6, the first mounting port 12 and the third mounting port 14 are in corresponding fit, and the magnets in the first mounting port 12 and the third mounting port 14 are magnetically attracted to prevent the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 from separating along the direction of the first slide groove 9, thus ensuring the connection stability of the first frame 1 and the second frame 5.

[0067] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0068] The second mounting port 13 is located at the edge of the insertion port 19;

[0069] The fourth mounting port 17 is located on the side wall of the second frame 5 near the first frame 1 and is corresponding to the second mounting port 13. Magnets are installed in the second mounting port 13 and the fourth mounting port 17 respectively, and the magnets in the second mounting port 13 and the fourth mounting port 17 are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0070] When the protrusion 7 fits perfectly into the groove 6, the second mounting port 13 and the fourth mounting port 17 are correspondingly fitted together, and the magnets in the second mounting port 13 and the fourth mounting port 17 are magnetically attracted to each other, preventing the first frame 1 and the second frame 5 from shaking along the vertical direction of the second frame 5, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the first frame 1 and the second frame 5.
