Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent camera technology, and in particular to an intelligent camera control device. Background Technology

[0002] A smart camera (or intelligent video camera) is a video surveillance device that integrates artificial intelligence (AI), network communication and advanced image processing technology. It can capture and analyze video content in real time and automatically respond to specific events.

[0003] The control of an intelligent camera system relies on the collaboration of multiple levels of equipment, consisting of three parts: front-end acquisition equipment, transmission and processing equipment, and back-end control platform. When the front-end acquisition is carried out, the intelligent surveillance camera will accumulate a lot of dust on the lens when it works outdoors for a long time. If this dust is not removed, it will seriously affect the monitoring effect and cause serious distortion to the back-end transmission and processing.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes an intelligent camera control device. Utility Model Content

[0005] Technical problem to be solved: When collecting data at the front end, the surveillance smart camera will accumulate a lot of dust on the lens after working outdoors for a long time. If this dust is not removed, it will seriously affect the monitoring effect and cause serious distortion to the back-end transmission and processing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an intelligent camera control device, including an intelligent camera. The intelligent camera includes a camera housing, a small motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the camera housing, a connecting rod is fixedly installed on the drive end of the small motor, the connecting rod passes through the camera housing and connects to a drive plate, one end of a support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the drive plate, another drive plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the support plate, the other drive plate is rotatably connected to one side of the camera housing, and a towel is fixedly installed on the bottom of the support plate.

[0007] In one example, the support plate is arc-shaped and matches the camera housing.

[0008] In one example, a support block is fixedly installed at the top center of the camera housing, and a cleaning block is mounted on top of the support block. The cleaning block is arc-shaped and matches the support plate.

[0009] In one example, the top of the cleaning block has friction texture.

[0010] In one example, a support rod is rotatably mounted at the bottom center of the camera housing, a cross rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rod, the four ends of the cross rod are fixedly connected to the inner wall of a circular plate, a lamp tube is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the circular plate, the lamp tube is circular, and a light sensor is mounted on one side of the camera housing.

[0011] In one example, the lens of the smart camera is made of anti-fog glass.

[0012] In one example, one side of each of the two drive plates is rotatably connected to the inner wall of a support frame, which is C-shaped.

[0013] In one example, connecting plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the bottom of the support frame, and the two connecting plates are fixedly connected to the top of the annular plate.

[0014] The intelligent camera control device proposed in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. In this utility model, by driving a small motor, the connecting rod drives the drive plate to rotate, which in turn drives the towel to rotate through the support plate, thereby cleaning the lens on the camera housing, improving the monitoring effect, and avoiding serious distortion to the backend transmission and processing.

[0016] 2. In this utility model, on rainy days, the towel on the drive support plate rotates on the cleaning block, and the cleaning block repeatedly squeezes the towel. The friction texture increases the friction effect between the cleaning block and the towel, and the rainwater is used to clean the towel, realizing the reuse of the towel, thereby ensuring that the lens remains clean and further improving the monitoring effect.

[0017] 3. In this utility model, the light intensity is detected by a light sensor. When the light intensity is lower than the preset value, the lamp is turned on to provide supplementary light, thereby improving the front-end acquisition effect and facilitating image transmission and processing.

[0024] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of this utility model, a detailed description is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0027] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a communication connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] In this invention, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the first feature "on" or "below" the second feature may be in direct contact with the first and second features, or indirect contact through an intermediate medium. In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "a solution," "some solutions," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that the specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that solution or example is included in at least one solution or example of this invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same solution or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more solutions or examples.

[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model proposes an intelligent camera control device, which includes an intelligent camera. The intelligent camera includes a camera housing 1. A small motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the camera housing 1. A connecting rod 2 is fixedly installed on the drive end of the small motor. The connecting rod 2 passes through the camera housing 1 and connects to a drive plate 3. One end of a support plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the drive plate 3. Another drive plate 3 is fixedly connected to another drive plate 3. The other drive plate 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the camera housing 1. A towel 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support plate 4. The lens can be cleaned by the towel 5, or by a sponge or other cleaning items. When the backend is processing the image and detects image distortion, it drives the small motor to run, causing the connecting rod 2 to drive the drive plate 3 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the towel 5 to rotate through the support plate 4, cleaning the lens on the camera housing 1, improving the monitoring effect, and avoiding serious distortion to the backend transmission and processing.

[0030] Considering that the camera housing 1 is an irregular arc shape, in order to better clean the lens on the camera housing 1, the support plate 4 is arc-shaped. The support plate 4 matches the camera housing 1, and the towel 5 is also arc-shaped through the support plate 4, which facilitates the cleaning of the lens, improves the cleaning effect, and thus improves the monitoring effect.

[0031] Considering that the towel 5 will get dusty after cleaning the lens and needs to be washed, a support block 6 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the camera housing 1. The top of the support block 6 has a cleaning block 7, which is arc-shaped and matches the support plate 4. On rainy days, the towel 5 on the support plate 4 is driven to rotate on the cleaning block 7, and the cleaning block 7 repeatedly squeezes the towel 5, using rainwater to clean the towel 5, thus realizing the reuse of the towel 5.

[0032] To better clean the towel 5, the top of the cleaning block 7 is provided with friction texture 8. The friction texture 8 increases the friction effect between the cleaning block 7 and the towel 5, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the towel 5.

[0033] Considering that insufficient light during nighttime recording can negatively impact the image quality of smart cameras and affect front-end data acquisition, a support rod 9 is rotatably mounted at the bottom center of the camera housing 1. A cross rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rod 9, and multiple ends of the cross rod 10 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of a circular plate 11. A lamp tube 12, which is circular in shape, is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the circular plate 11. A light sensor is installed on one side of the camera housing 1. A small motor, the light sensor, and the lamp tube 12 are connected to a controller for control. The controller detects the light intensity using the light sensor, and when the light intensity is lower than a preset value, the lamp tube 12 is turned on to provide supplementary lighting, thereby improving the front-end data acquisition effect, facilitating image transmission and processing, and preventing distortion.

[0034] Considering that camera lenses are prone to condensation in cold conditions, which can affect image acquisition, smart camera lenses are made of anti-fog glass. Anti-fog glass is a special functional glass that is treated with special technology to prevent fogging on the surface. It mainly includes three technical paths: anti-fog coating, anti-fog electrothermal treatment, and nanocomposite anti-fog. Its principle covers multiple dimensions such as physical barrier, heat conduction, and material modification, which can effectively solve the problem of condensation on the glass surface under temperature difference. In the case of low air temperature, it can prevent condensation on the lens and avoid affecting the front-end acquisition effect.

[0035] Considering that the installation of the smart camera should not affect the cleaning of the towel 5, one side of each of the two drive plates 3 is rotatably connected to the inner walls of the support frame 13. The support frame 13 is C-shaped and is used to fix the smart camera in place, so as to avoid affecting the rotation of the support plate 4 and thus avoid affecting the cleaning of the lens by the towel 5.

[0036] Considering that supporting the lamp tube 12 with the support rod 9 is not stable enough, connecting plates 14 are fixedly installed at both ends of the bottom of the support frame 13. The two connecting plates 14 are fixedly connected to the top of the ring plate 11. The lamp tube 12 is supported and fixed by the connecting plates 14 and the support frame 13, which prevents the lamp tube 12 from being supported only by the support rod 9 and the bottom of the camera housing 1, which would affect the service life of the camera housing 1. At the same time, it improves the stability of the lamp tube 12, thereby improving the camera acquisition effect.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
