Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive imaging technology, and in particular to a threaded connection base for mounting a panoramic action camera. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, a dashcam is an automotive imaging device that records images and sounds during vehicle operation. Dashcams are typically mounted on a base and fixed to the windshield or center console using adhesive or other methods. They are then connected to the vehicle's power supply via a wired connection to obtain power.

[0003] However, during the actual research and development process, the inventors discovered that current dashcams have the following shortcomings:

[0004] First, dashcams are usually installed in a base in a fixed or detachable manner. For detachable dashcams, there is usually an elastic locking structure on the base. After the dashcam is installed in the base, the elastic locking structure can lock the dashcam. However, after long-term use and in high-temperature environments, the elastic force provided by the elastic locking structure will be greatly reduced. When vibration occurs during vehicle driving, the dashcam is prone to loosening and falling off, and its fixation reliability is not good.

[0005] Secondly, dashcams are generally wired via USB or Type-C interfaces; however, in the hot summer months, if a vehicle is exposed to the sun for a long time, it may experience thermal expansion and contraction, causing the connector to loosen and resulting in unreliable power supply to the dashcam.

[0006] Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be researched to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology and its main purpose is to provide a threaded connection base for mounting a panoramic action camera, effectively solving the technical defects of the existing dashcams, such as low fixing reliability and low power supply reliability.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a threaded connection base for mounting a panoramic action camera, comprising a base housing for fixing to a support, the base housing having a first connecting part, the first connecting part being screwed with a conductive nut; the first connecting part having a first conductive pin and a second conductive pin, the conductive nut having a third conductive pin; when the conductive nut is screwed with the first connecting part, the first conductive pin can be electrically connected to the conductive nut, and the second conductive pin can be electrically connected to the third conductive pin.

[0009] The beneficial effect of the threaded connection base for mounting a panoramic action camera provided in this application is that, in use, the conductive nut is screwed into the first connection part, so that the first conductive pin is electrically connected to the conductive nut, and the second conductive pin is electrically connected to the third conductive pin; after the panoramic action camera is screwed into the conductive nut, electrical energy can be output to the panoramic action camera through the conductive nut and the third conductive pin.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, firstly, by using a conductive nut to screw into the panoramic action camera, the panoramic action camera can be fixed. Compared with the traditional technology that uses an elastic locking structure for fixing, the connection performance can be guaranteed under high temperature and long-term installation conditions. The conductive nut can also provide a reliable and stable installation method for the panoramic action camera, thereby improving the reliability of the installation between the panoramic action camera and the base housing.

[0011] Secondly, since electrical energy can be transmitted to the panoramic motion camera through the conductive nut and the third conductive pin by screwing the conductive nut into the panoramic motion camera, there is no need to use a USB connector or a Type-C connector for electrical connection. Moreover, the conductive nut can conduct power immediately after being screwed into the panoramic motion camera. Since the screwing connection between the conductive nut and the panoramic motion camera is reliable, the power supply reliability of the panoramic motion camera can be improved.

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0039] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 5 The threaded connection base 10 for mounting a panoramic action camera 20, as provided in the embodiments of this application, will now be described. The threaded connection base 10 for mounting the panoramic action camera 20 includes: a base housing 11 and the panoramic action camera 20.

[0040] The base housing 11 is used for fixed installation on the support. The base housing 11 is provided with a first connecting part 111, and a conductive nut 12 is screwed into the first connecting part 111. The first connecting part 111 is provided with a first conductive pin 112 and a second conductive pin 113, and the conductive nut 12 is provided with a third conductive pin 123. When the conductive nut 12 is screwed into the first connecting part 111, the first conductive pin 112 can be electrically connected to the conductive nut 12, and the second conductive pin 113 can be electrically connected to the third conductive pin 123.

[0041] Specifically, in use, the conductive nut 12 is screwed onto the first connecting part 111, so that the first conductive pin 112 is electrically connected to the conductive nut 12, and the second conductive pin 113 is electrically connected to the third conductive pin 123; after the panoramic motion camera 20 is screwed onto the conductive nut 12, electrical energy can be output to the panoramic motion camera 20 through the conductive nut 12 and the third conductive pin 123.

[0042] With this structure, firstly, the panoramic action camera 20 can be fixed by screwing the conductive nut 12 into the panoramic action camera 20. Compared with the traditional method of fixing by using an elastic locking structure, this can ensure the connection performance under high temperature and long-term installation conditions. The conductive nut 12 can also provide a reliable and stable installation method for the panoramic action camera 20, thereby improving the reliability of the installation between the panoramic action camera 20 and the base housing 11.

[0043] Secondly, since the conductive nut 12 is screwed into the panoramic motion camera 20, electrical energy can be transmitted to the panoramic motion camera 20 through the conductive nut 12 and the third conductive pin 123. There is no need to use a USB connector or a type-c connector for electrical connection. Moreover, the conductive nut 12 can conduct power after being screwed into the panoramic motion camera 20. Since the screwing connection between the conductive nut 12 and the panoramic motion camera 20 is reliable, the power supply reliability of the panoramic motion camera 20 can be improved.

[0044] It should be noted that the base housing 11 and the first connecting part 111 are integrally formed structures, but at least the first connecting part 111 is a conductive metal structure, while the base housing 11 is made of non-conductive plastic or non-conductive metal material. The first connecting part 111 and the first conductive pin 112 are negative terminals, and the second conductive pin 113 is a positive terminal. The first conductive pin 112 and the second conductive pin 113 can be connected to the vehicle's power supply terminal via a welding cable to supply power through the vehicle's power supply.

[0045] In some embodiments, the front surface of the first connecting portion 111 is provided with a first screw hole 114, the rear surface of the conductive nut 12 is provided with a first bolt portion 121 for screwing into the first screw hole 114, and the front surface of the conductive nut 12 is provided with a second bolt portion 122 for screwing into the panoramic motion camera 20. The rear surface of the first connecting portion 111 is provided with a second mounting hole 115, which leads forward to connect to the first screw hole 114. The second mounting hole 115 is provided with a second insulating collar 116, and a second conductive pin 113 is disposed within the second insulating collar 116. A first conductive pin 112 is disposed in the first connecting portion 111, and the first conductive pin 112 and the second conductive pin 113 are isolated from each other by the second insulating collar 116 and are non-conductive. The first conductive pin 112 and the second conductive pin 113 extend rearward.

[0046] Specifically, the first bolt portion 121 and the second bolt portion 122 are coaxially arranged. The conductive nut 12 is provided with a first mounting hole 124, which extends forward through the front surface of the first bolt portion 121 and backward through the rear surface of the second bolt portion 122. A first insulating collar 125 is provided inside the first mounting hole 124, and a third conductive pin 123 is provided inside the first insulating collar 125 and is isolated from the conductive nut 12, thus not conducting electricity. The outer surfaces of both the first bolt portion 121 and the second bolt portion 122 are provided with external threads. The thread profile and pitch of the external threads of the first bolt portion 121, the second bolt portion 122, and the internal threads of the first threaded hole 114 are all the same.

[0047] More specifically, the front surface of the second conductive pin 113 is provided with a second insertion interface 1131. After the first bolt portion 121 is screwed into the first screw hole 114, the rear end of the third conductive pin 123 is inserted into the second insertion interface 1131. This structure can improve the connection reliability between the second conductive pin 113 and the second conductive pin 113.

[0048] In other embodiments, the panoramic motion camera 20 includes a main body shell 21, a second connecting portion 211 disposed on the main body shell 21, and a fourth conductive pin 212 disposed on the second connecting portion 211. The rear surface of the second connecting portion 211 is provided with a second screw hole 214 for the second bolt portion 122 to be screwed into. When the second bolt portion 122 is screwed into the second screw hole 214, the second bolt portion 122 can be electrically connected to the second connecting portion 211, and the third conductive pin 123 can be electrically connected to the fourth conductive pin 212.

[0049] It should be noted that the panoramic action camera 20 is connected to the second bolt part 122 by the second connecting part 211, which enables detachable installation; a power supply can be installed inside the panoramic action camera 20, so that the panoramic action camera 20 can be self-powered for a certain period of time, allowing the panoramic action camera 20 to exist in the form of an action camera, and after the panoramic action camera 20 is installed on the threaded connection base 10, it can exist in the form of a dashcam.

[0050] It is understandable that the main body shell 21 of the panoramic action camera 20 contains components such as a camera and a motherboard. The second connecting part 211 and the fourth conductive pin 212 can be wired to the camera and the motherboard to provide working power to the camera and the motherboard.

[0051] Specifically, the front surface of the second connecting part 211 is provided with a third mounting hole 215, which leads to the second screw hole 214; the third mounting hole 215 is provided with a third insulating collar 213, and the fourth conductive pin 212 is located inside the third insulating collar 213 and is isolated from the second connecting part 211 and is not conductive.

[0052] More specifically, a baffle 101 is provided on the periphery of the rear surface of the base housing 11, a wire passage notch 102 is provided at the bottom of the baffle 101, and a base plate (not shown in the figure) is installed on the rear surface of the baffle 101. The base plate is used to fix the load.

[0053] The assembly process of the threaded connection base 10 for mounting the panoramic action camera 20 provided in this embodiment is described in detail below:

[0054] First, a base housing 11 is provided; a second insulating collar 116 is inserted into a second mounting hole 115, and a second conductive pin 113 is inserted into the second insulating collar 116;

[0055] Then, a conductive nut 12 is provided; a first insulating collar 125 is inserted into a first mounting hole 124, and a third conductive pin 123 is inserted into the first insulating collar 125;

[0056] Furthermore, the first bolt portion 121 of the conductive nut 12 is screwed into the first screw hole 114, so that the conductive nut 12 is electrically connected to the first conductive pin 112, and the third conductive pin is in contact with the second conductive pin.

[0057] Then, a cable is provided, and the positive terminal of the cable is soldered to the second conductive pin 113, and the negative terminal of the cable is soldered to the first conductive pin 112.

[0058] Furthermore, a base plate is provided for the base housing 11, and the base plate is fixedly installed on the car center console or windshield, and the base housing 11 is fixed to the base plate;

[0059] Finally, a panoramic motion camera 20 is provided, the second connecting part 211 of the panoramic motion camera 20 is aligned with the second bolt part 122, and the second bolt part 122 is screwed into the second screw hole 214, so that the second bolt part 122 and the second connecting part 211 are electrically connected, and the fourth conductive pin 212 and the third conductive pin 123 are electrically connected.

[0060] It is understood that the threaded connection base 10 provided in this application for mounting the panoramic action camera 20 can also be used to mount other automotive imaging devices besides the panoramic action camera. As long as the automotive imaging device is provided with a second connection part and a second screw hole in the second connection part, so that the second bolt part 122 can be screwed into the second screw hole 214, the assembly of the automotive imaging device and the threaded connection base can be completed.
