With the advancement of technology, a new generation of webcams has emerged that combines traditional cameras with network technology. As long as the webcam is plugged into a network cable (without a computer), it can transmit images to the other side of the world through the network. The information is then processed and analyzed by artificial intelligence programs. The webcam can be remotely controlled to rotate left, right, up, and down for tracking and monitoring, and the monitored images can be recorded.

[0003] Insufficiency of existing technology: To avoid damage during use, existing tracking cameras are mostly installed inside transparent protective covers. However, when cameras are installed outdoors, the complex outdoor environment makes it easy for dust, rain, snow and other debris to adhere to the protective cover, affecting the shooting image. In order to ensure the camera's shooting range, the camera is often installed at a high place, which makes it inconvenient to clean the protective cover. Utility Model Content

The output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a driving gear. A driven gear is fixedly sleeved on the side of the protective cover, and the side of the driven gear meshes with the side of the driving gear.

[0006] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a mounting frame, a brush is movably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting frame, the inner side wall of the brush is movably connected to the side of the protective cover, and a mounting shaft is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame, the side of the mounting shaft is movably sleeved with the inner side wall of the base.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom end of the mounting bracket is provided with a mounting groove, and a pressure spring is fixedly connected to the top end of the mounting groove. The bottom end of the pressure spring is fixedly connected to the top end of the brush.

[0008] Furthermore, a cleaning fluid nozzle is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting bracket, and a cleaning fluid storage tank is fixedly connected to the side of the cleaning fluid nozzle via a conduit.

[0009] Furthermore, a hot air nozzle is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting bracket, and a blower is fixedly connected to the side of the hot air nozzle via a duct.

[0012] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a protective cover made of transparent material to cover the bottom of the base and protect the camera body. During the shooting process, the drive motor drives the active gear to rotate. The active gear and the driven gear mesh with each other to drive the protective cover to rotate at high speed, which generates centrifugal force. Debris on the surface of the protective cover is splashed in all directions under the action of centrifugal force, automatically cleaning the surface of the protective cover and preventing debris from adhering to the surface of the protective cover. This ensures that the camera body can shoot clear images through the protective cover and helps to keep the equipment clean.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses an automatic telescopic rod to drive a rack to move laterally along a slide rail. The transmission gear meshes with the rack, causing the mounting shaft to rotate, which in turn rotates the mounting bracket. This allows the mounting bracket to move out of the storage slot and remain perpendicular to the base. Cleaning fluid from the storage tank is delivered through a conduit to the cleaning fluid nozzle and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover. A pressure spring pushes a brush to keep it firmly in contact with the surface of the protective cover. As the protective cover rotates, the brush further cleans the surface. Afterwards, a blower generates hot air, which is delivered through a conduit to the hot air nozzle and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover, keeping the surface dry and effectively cleaning stubborn stains, thus improving the cleaning effect.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The tracking camera using AI artificial intelligence recognition involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a tracking camera using AI artificial intelligence recognition, including a camera body 1, and further including: a cleaning mechanism 2, a protective mechanism 3, a mounting mechanism 4, and an adjusting frame 5. The side of the camera body 1 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the adjusting frame 5, and the top of the adjusting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the camera body 1. The side of the protective mechanism 3 is movably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting mechanism 4. The mounting mechanism 4 includes a base 401, and the inner side wall of the base 401 is provided with a placement groove 403. The bottom of the base 401 is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting frame 5. The protective mechanism 3 includes a protective cover 301, and the side of the protective cover 301 is provided with a mounting ring 304. The bottom of the mounting ring 304 is movably connected to the bottom of the placement groove 403. The base 401 has a cavity 404 inside, and a drive motor 302 is fixedly connected to the top of the cavity 404. The output shaft of the drive motor 302 is fixedly connected to... The device includes a drive gear 305 and a driven gear 303 fixedly fitted to the side of the protective cover 301. The side of the driven gear 303 meshes with the side of the drive gear 305. The top of the mounting mechanism 4 is fixed in a suitable position. During use, the protective cover 301, made of transparent material, covers the bottom of the base 401 to protect the camera body 1. During shooting, the drive motor 302 drives the drive gear 305 to rotate. The meshing of the drive gear 305 and the driven gear 303 drives the protective cover 301 to rotate at high speed, causing the protective cover 301 to generate centrifugal force. Debris attached to the surface of the protective cover 301 is splashed around under the action of centrifugal force, preventing debris from adhering to the surface of the protective cover 301 and ensuring that the camera body 1 captures a clear image through the protective cover 301. During shooting, the camera body 1 sends the captured image to the control terminal via network signal. The control terminal analyzes the image data and controls the camera body 1 to rotate up, down, left, and right through the adjustment bracket 5 for tracking and shooting.

[0024] The cleaning mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 201. A brush 202 is movably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting frame 201. The inner side wall of the brush 202 is movably connected to the side of the protective cover 301. A mounting shaft 209 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame 201. The side of the mounting shaft 209 is movably sleeved with the inner side wall of the base 401. When stubborn stains are attached to the surface of the protective cover 301, the mounting frame 201 rotates along the mounting shaft 209, making the mounting frame 201 perpendicular to the base 401. As the protective cover 301 rotates, the brush 202 further cleans the debris on the surface of the protective cover 301. After cleaning, the mounting frame 201 is rotated again to make the mounting frame 201 fit tightly against the bottom of the base 401, so as to avoid obstructing the protective cover 301.

[0025] The mounting bracket 201 has a mounting groove 211 at its bottom end, and a pressure spring 210 is fixedly connected to the top end of the mounting groove 211. The bottom end of the pressure spring 210 is fixedly connected to the top end of the brush 202. The pressure spring 210 pushes the brush 202 so that the brush 202 is always in close contact with the surface of the protective cover 301 to avoid gaps.

[0026] The mounting bracket 201 is fixedly connected to a cleaning fluid nozzle 203 on its side. A cleaning fluid storage tank is fixedly connected to the side of the cleaning fluid nozzle 203 via a conduit. The cleaning fluid storage tank is located on the side of the base 401. When the brush 202 cleans the protective cover 301, the cleaning fluid inside the cleaning fluid storage tank is transported to the cleaning fluid nozzle 203 via a conduit and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover 301, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0027] The mounting bracket 201 is fixedly connected to a hot air nozzle 204 on its side. A blower is fixedly connected to the side of the hot air nozzle 204 through a duct. The blower generates hot air, which is delivered to the hot air nozzle 204 through the duct and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover 301, keeping the surface of the protective cover 301 dry.

[0028] An automatic telescopic rod 205 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the base 401, and a slide rail 207 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the base 401. A rack 206 is movably connected to the bottom end of the slide rail 207. The side of the rack 206 is fixedly connected to the side of the automatic telescopic rod 205. A transmission gear 208 is fixedly sleeved on the side of the mounting shaft 209. The top end of the transmission gear 208 meshes with the bottom end of the rack 206. The automatic telescopic rod 205 drives the rack 206 to move laterally along the slide rail 207. The meshing of the transmission gear 208 and the rack 206 drives the mounting shaft 209 to rotate, thereby driving the mounting frame 201 to rotate.

[0029] The base 401 has a storage slot 402 at the bottom corresponding to the position of the mounting bracket 201. The side of the storage slot 402 is movably connected to the side of the mounting bracket 201. When the cleaning mechanism 2 is not needed to clean the protective cover 301, the mounting bracket 201 is completely retracted into the storage slot 402 to avoid obstructing the protective cover 301.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The top of the mounting mechanism 4 is fixed in a suitable position. During use, a protective cover 301 made of transparent material covers the bottom of the base 401 to protect the camera body 1. During the shooting process, the drive motor 302 drives the active gear 305 to rotate. The active gear 305 and the driven gear 303 mesh with each other to drive the protective cover 301 to rotate at high speed, causing the protective cover 301 to generate centrifugal force. Debris attached to the surface of the protective cover 301 is splashed around under the action of centrifugal force, preventing debris from adhering to the surface of the protective cover 301 and ensuring that the camera body 1 captures a clear image through the protective cover 301. During shooting, the camera body 1 sends the captured image to the control terminal via network signal. The control terminal analyzes the image data and controls the camera body 1 to rotate up, down, left, and right through the adjustment bracket 5 for tracking shooting. When stubborn stains appear on the surface of the protective cover 301, the automatic telescopic rod 205 drives the rack 206 along the slide rail. 207 moves laterally, and the transmission gear 208 meshes with the rack 206 to drive the mounting shaft 209 to rotate, thereby driving the mounting bracket 201 to rotate, so that the mounting bracket 201 is moved out of the storage slot 402 and keeps the mounting bracket 201 perpendicular to the base 401. The cleaning fluid in the cleaning fluid storage tank is delivered to the cleaning fluid nozzle 203 through the conduit and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover 301. The pressure spring 210 pushes the brush 202 to keep the brush 202 in close contact with the surface of the protective cover 301. As the protective cover 301 rotates, the brush 202 further cleans the surface of the protective cover 301. Then the blower runs to generate hot air, which is delivered to the hot air nozzle 204 through the conduit and sprayed onto the surface of the protective cover 301 to keep the surface of the protective cover 301 dry. After cleaning, the automatic telescopic rod 205 is activated in the reverse direction to completely retract the mounting bracket 201 into the storage slot 402 to avoid obstructing the protective cover 301 and ensure that the camera body 1 can shoot normally.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
