Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of camera technology, and more specifically, to a camera locking device and system. Background Technology

[0002] Camera mounting refers to the process of precisely securing the lens to the voice coil motor (VCM) or other components within a camera module. Mounting typically requires ensuring the alignment accuracy of the lens and VCM to guarantee image quality. Common mounting methods include threaded connections and adhesive bonding. Automated mounting devices or fixtures may be used during the mounting process to improve production efficiency and precision. Adhesive application is usually required during camera mounting, and it plays a crucial role in the assembly of camera modules.

[0003] When mounting a camera, technicians typically manually apply adhesive to the lens and then manually mount and assemble it using the bracket. However, this mounting method is inefficient and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0046] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0047] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0049] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this utility model is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0050] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "sag" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0051] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0052] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, outlines some embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0053] To address the issues of low efficiency and high labor costs associated with manually handling lenses for adhesive application and mounting brackets during camera attachment, this application provides a camera attachment device 1000. (Refer to...) Figure 1 It includes a working platform 1, a load-bearing component 2, a gripping component 3, and a locking drive component 4.

[0054] The load-bearing component 2 is mounted on the work platform 1, the locking drive component 4 is mounted above the work platform 1, and the gripping component 3 is mounted on the locking drive component 4.

[0055] The support component 2 is used to support and limit the base 5 of the camera 100.

[0056] The gripper assembly 3 is used to grip or release the lens of the camera 100.

[0057] The locking drive assembly 4 is used to drive the gripper assembly 3 to rotate.

[0058] The base 5 of the camera 100 includes a voice coil motor. Here, the base 5 can be simply placed on the support component 2, or the technician can manually tighten the base 5 and the lens by one turn (i.e., not yet tightened) to form a preliminary assembled camera 100, and then place the preliminary assembled camera 100 on the support component 2. The clamping component 3 and the locking drive component 4 cooperate to complete the locking of the camera 100.

[0059] The working principle of the above-mentioned camera locking device 1000 is as follows: After the base 5 of the camera 100 (which may be only the base 5 or the base 5 that is not locked to the lens) is placed on the support component 2, the gripping component 3 holds the lens of the camera 100. Then, the locking drive component 4 rotates a preset number of turns (such as 7 turns, 10 turns, etc.) or a preset angle (such as 360°, or n times 360°), thereby driving the gripping component 3 to rotate, and the gripping component 3 drives the lens to rotate.

[0060] Since the base 5 is restricted from rotating, the base 5 and the lens can be tightened by rotating the lens. In this way, the camera 100 is locked in place, reducing the manual intervention required during the locking process, greatly improving locking efficiency, and reducing labor costs.

[0061] The structure of the aforementioned support component 2 can be flexibly configured. For example, it can be a support plate with limiting members on it, forming a placement area for the camera 100 base 5 between the limiting members. Alternatively, it can consist of multiple limiting members mounted on the work platform 1, forming a placement area for the camera 100 base 5 between the multiple limiting members. Furthermore, the above structures are merely examples, and the structure of the support component 2 is not limited.

[0062] To facilitate the placement and removal of the camera 100 base 5 and the locked camera 100, and to provide sufficient force to assist in tightening the lens to the base 5, refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3The support component 2 includes a support platform 21, which is set on the work platform 1, and a limiting groove 22 is provided on the support platform 21. The limiting groove 22 is adapted to the base 5 of the camera 100.

[0063] The support platform 21 is also provided with a convenient access slot 23, which is connected to the limiting slot 22, and the width of the convenient access slot 23 is smaller than the width of the limiting slot 22.

[0064] The number of convenient slots 23 can be flexibly set. For example, it can be one, four, or other values. The number is not limited.

[0065] With the above configuration, the limiting groove 22 limits the base 5 of the camera 100 and also provides a counterforce to the base 5 during the rotation of the lens driven by the locking drive component 4, so that the base 5 and the camera 100 are screwed together. The easy-access groove 23 facilitates the removal and placement of the camera 100 and the base 5.

[0066] Considering that the support platform 21 will wear down after long-term use, and the working platform 1 may also wear down, replacing the entire working platform 1 would be costly. Therefore, to reduce replacement and maintenance costs, referring to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The supporting component 2 also includes a supporting base plate 24, which is disposed on the working platform 1.

[0067] A bearing groove is provided on the bearing base plate 24, and the bearing platform 21 is set in the bearing groove of the bearing base plate 24.

[0068] The base plate 24 can be detachably mounted on the work platform 1 by means of screws, pins or other means. Similarly, the support platform 21 can be detachably mounted on the base plate of the support platform 21 by means of screws, threaded connections or pin connections.

[0069] With this structure, during the rotation of the mirror driven by the locking drive assembly 4, the support platform 21 and the support base plate 24 work together to provide a larger, opposing force to the camera 100 base 5, ensuring smooth locking. At the same time, this reduces wear on the work platform 1 and facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the worn support platform 21, reducing maintenance costs and extending the service life of the work platform 1.

[0070] The structure of the aforementioned locking drive component 4 can also be flexibly configured. For example, a motor can be used to drive the gripping component 3 to rotate, or a cylinder can be used. Its structure is not limited.

[0071] To ensure that the operation of the work platform 1 is not affected before or after the rotational locking, the locking drive assembly 4 incorporates functions to adjust the gripper assembly 3 towards or away from the work platform, as well as a function to drive the gripper assembly 3 to rotate. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 4 The locking drive assembly 4 includes a support 41, a position adjustment 42, a mounting plate 43, and a rotating component 44.

[0072] The position adjustment component 42 is mounted on the support component 41, and the drive end of the position adjustment component 42 is connected to the mounting plate 43.

[0073] The rotating component 44 is mounted on the mounting plate 43, and the driving end of the rotating component 44 is connected to the gripper assembly 3.

[0074] The position adjustment component 42 is used to drive the rotating component 44 and the gripper assembly 3 to move in the vertical direction and to fix them in any position.

[0075] Rotating component 44 is used to drive the gripper assembly 3 to rotate.

[0076] The structure of the support member 41 can be flexibly set. For example, it can be a vertically set plate or a column, and its structure is not restricted.

[0077] In one example, to ensure stability, support member 41 can be Figure 1 The gantry shown.

[0078] The position adjustment component 42 can be any type of actuator capable of linear reciprocating motion, such as an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or a motor, and its implementation is unrestricted. Similarly, the rotating component 44 can also be any type of actuator capable of rotation, such as a rotary cylinder or a servo motor, and its implementation is unrestricted.

[0079] With the above structure, in the absence of operation, the position adjustment component 42 drives the rotating component 44 and the gripping assembly 3 away from the work platform 1. After the technician initially assembles the camera 100 base 5 and lens to be locked (e.g., tightens it one turn), it is placed into the limiting groove 22 of the support platform 21. Then, the control is activated, and the position adjustment component 42 begins to drive the rotating component 44 and the gripping assembly 3 closer to the support assembly 2 on the work platform 1. After moving to the preset position, the position adjustment component 42 stops moving, and the gripping assembly 3 activates to clamp the lens on the base 5. Then, the rotating component 44 begins to drive the gripping assembly 3 to rotate, so that the lens and the base 5 rotate and tighten. After the rotating component 44 rotates a preset number of turns or angle, the locking is completed and the movement stops. The gripping assembly 3 releases the lens, and then the position adjustment component 42 drives the rotating component 44 and the gripping assembly 3 away from the work platform 1. When the next set of camera 100 base 5 and lens to be locked is placed into the limiting groove 22 of the support platform 21, the above operation is repeated.

[0080] Furthermore, the structure of the gripper assembly 3 can be flexibly configured. For example, it can consist of a motor and a gripper, or it can be any other structure, and its implementation is unrestricted.

[0081] To simplify the structure of the gripper assembly 3 and facilitate its acquisition, refer to... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The gripping assembly 3 includes a finger cylinder 31, which is located at the drive end of the rotating member 44.

[0082] That is, when the rotating component 44 is a servo motor, the finger cylinder 31 meshes with the first gear on the servo motor via the second gear, so as to drive the finger cylinder 31 and the lens it holds to rotate together when the servo motor rotates. When the rotating component 44 is a rotary cylinder, the finger cylinder 31 is mounted on the rotating shaft of the rotary cylinder.

[0083] The finger cylinder 31 has two opposing grippers 32, the inner sides of which are arc-shaped and adapted to fit the lens. When the finger cylinder 31 drives the two grippers 32 to move closer together, it can clamp the lens; conversely, when the finger cylinder 31 drives the two grippers 32 to move away from each other, it releases the lens. In this way, the gripping assembly 3 can clamp or release the lens.

[0084] To avoid insufficient friction between the lens and the gripper 32, which would prevent proper clamping, and to protect the lens, in one example, refer to... Figure 5 The inner side of the gripper 32 of the finger cylinder 31 is provided with an anti-slip pad 33.

[0085] Both the inner and outer sides of the anti-slip pad 33 can be curved to increase the contact area between it and the gripper 32 and the lens, thereby increasing the clamping force. The anti-slip pad 33 can be made of silicone, rubber, or any other flexible material that can increase friction; its material is not limited.

[0086] The above structure not only increases the friction between the gripper 32 and the lens, improving the clamping stability, but also protects the lens.

[0087] To facilitate the placement and removal of the base 5 and lens to be locked, or the placement and removal of the camera 100 that has already been locked, and to improve work efficiency, refer to Figure 6 The camera locking device 1000 also includes a base 5 and a rotating component 6.

[0088] The rotating component 6 is mounted on the base 5, and the drive end of the rotating component 6 is connected to the working platform 1. The locking drive component 4 is mounted on the base 5.

[0089] There are multiple load-bearing components 2, and the multiple load-bearing components 2 are arranged at equal angles along the circumference of the load-bearing component 2.

[0090] Rotating component 6 is used to drive the work platform 1 to rotate.

[0091] The rotating component 6 can be any type of drive that can be controlled and rotated, such as a rotary cylinder, or it can be composed of a motor and gears, and its implementation is not limited.

[0092] For ease of control, in one example, a rotary cylinder can be used as the rotating component 6.

[0093] In one example, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are four load-bearing components 2, and each pair of load-bearing components 2 forms a group, with the load-bearing components 2 in the same group being closer together. At this time, a rotating component 44 and a gripping component 3 constitute a locking group. There are two locking groups in the figure, and the two locking groups can simultaneously perform locking operations on two load-bearing components 2 in the same group.

[0094] The number and arrangement of the bearing components 2 are not restricted.

[0095] With the above structure, the rotating component 6 (such as a rotary cylinder) drives the working platform 1 to rotate, so that the base 5 to be locked and the lens on the bearing component 2 (i.e., the bearing platform 21) move to below the gripping component 3 (i.e., the finger cylinder 31). Then, the position adjustment component 42 (such as a linear cylinder) drives the rotating component 44 (such as a servo motor) on the mounting plate 43 and the gripping component 3 (such as the finger cylinder 31) to approach the lens on the bearing platform 21. When it moves to the preset position, it stops. Then, the gripping component 3 (such as the finger cylinder 31) starts to work to clamp the lens. After that, the rotating component 44 (such as a servo motor) starts to work to drive the lens to rotate a preset angle or number of turns, so that the lens and the base 5 are tightened, and the locking is completed.

[0096] Then, the gripping assembly 3 (such as finger cylinder 31) releases the lens, the position adjustment component 42 (such as linear cylinder) drives the rotating component 44 (such as servo motor) on the mounting plate 43 and the gripping assembly 3 (such as finger cylinder 31) away from the carrier platform 21, and the rotating component 6 (such as rotary cylinder) drives the work platform 1 to rotate to remove the locked camera 100, move the unlocked lens and base 5 on the next carrier platform 21 to below the gripping, and repeat the above operation.

[0097] In this way, multiple sets of base 5 and lens are locked together repeatedly.

[0098] To facilitate the automation of the above controls, please continue to refer to... Figure 6 The camera locking device 1000 also includes a controller 7, a start button, a stop button, a reset button, and an emergency stop button, all mounted on the base 5.

[0099] The controller 7 is communicatively connected to the gripper assembly 3, the locking drive assembly 4, the rotation assembly 6, the start button, the stop button, the reset button, and the emergency stop button.

[0100] After pressing the start button, the controller 7 controls the gripper assembly 3 (such as finger cylinder 31), the locking drive assembly 4 (such as a cylinder driving vertical movement and a servo motor driving rotation), and the rotation assembly 6 (such as a rotary cylinder) to operate according to the work process, continuously locking multiple sets of cameras 100. When the stop button is pressed, the locking operation is stopped. Similarly, when the emergency stop button is pressed, all operations stop immediately. When the reset button is pressed, the controller 7 controls the gripper assembly 3 (such as finger cylinder 31), the locking drive assembly 4 (such as a cylinder driving vertical movement and a servo motor driving rotation), and the rotation assembly 6 (such as a rotary cylinder) to return to their initial default positions.

[0101] To ensure the safe operation of the camera locking device 1000 and improve security, refer to... Figure 6 and Figure 7 The base 5 includes an electrical control box 51, a housing 8, and a radiator 9. The controller 7, the rotating component 6, and the radiator 9 are all located inside the electrical control box 51.

[0102] A rotating auxiliary opening 52 is provided on the top surface of the electrical control box 51, and the working platform 1 is movably fitted into the electrical control box 51 through the rotating auxiliary opening 52.

[0103] The start button, stop button, reset button and emergency stop button are all located on the electrical control box 51.

[0104] The outer casing 8 is located on the top surface of the electrical control box 51, and a working opening is provided on the side of the outer casing 8. A working area is formed between the electrical control box 51 and the outer casing 8. The bearing component 2, the gripping component 3 and the locking drive component 4 are all located in the working area.

[0105] To further improve heat dissipation, heat dissipation windows can also be provided on the electrical control box 51. The shape, size and position of the heat dissipation windows are not limited.

[0106] In addition, for ease of observation and maintenance, an openable door and a transparent viewing window can be provided on the outer casing 8.

[0107] To facilitate the controller 7 in obtaining information such as the number of rotations and angles of the work platform 1 (which is essentially a turntable), refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The camera locking device 1000 may also include a position sensor 53, a fixing plate 54 and a sensing plate 55. The sensing plate 55 is set on the bottom surface of the work platform 1, the fixing plate 54 is set on the electrical control box 51, the position sensor 53 is detachably set on the fixing plate 54, and the position sensor 53 is communicatively connected to the controller 7.

[0108] Both the mounting plate 54 and the position sensor 53 can be detachably connected by screws, threaded connections, pins, etc. The mounting plate 54 can be placed at any position inside the electrical control box 51, but it must cooperate with the sensor plate 55. The shape of the mounting plate 54 can be flexibly set, for example, it can be a U-shape as shown in the figure, or an inverted L-shape, its shape is not limited.

[0109] Furthermore, the position sensor 53 can be any type of sensor, and its implementation is unrestricted.

[0110] In the above manner, the controller 7 can obtain the number of rotations and angle of the work platform 1 through the position sensor 53, so as to better control the locking.

[0111] To facilitate human intervention in control or maintenance, refer to Figure 7 An electrical control box 81 can also be installed on the outer casing 8. The electrical control box 81 has a display screen and is connected to the controller 7 via a wiring harness.

[0112] In this way, operators or technicians can input control commands to the electrical control box 81 through the display screen, and the controller 7 will control the execution of each component.

[0113] Based on the same inventive concept as the camera locking device 1000 described above, this application embodiment also provides a camera 100 locking system, including a camera 100 to be locked, and the camera locking device 1000 as described above.

[0114] Using the camera 100 locking system, the base 5 and the lens are tightened to lock the camera 100, reducing the need for manual intervention during the locking process, greatly improving locking efficiency and reducing labor costs.

[0115] For details regarding the camera 100 locking system and its effects, please refer to the description of the camera locking device 1000 above; it will not be repeated here.

[0116] In summary, the camera locking device and system provided in this application have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0117] (i) It enables automatic locking of the camera base and lens, improving locking efficiency, reducing manpower input, and lowering labor costs;

[0118] (ii) It can be installed in a production line manner, which greatly improves production efficiency.

[0119] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
