Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera technology, and in particular to a rotating structure and camera module. Background Technology

[0002] A camera module is an electronic device used to capture images and is an essential component of a camera. A camera module typically consists of three main components: a lens, an image sensor, and an image processing chip, all connected by a circuit board. During operation, light from an object is focused by the lens, received by the image sensor, and converted into an electrical signal. Then, after processing by the image processing chip, the electrical signal is converted into a digital image signal and output to a digital signal processor for further processing. Finally, after a series of processing steps, the digital image signal is converted into a standard format image signal.

[0003] The existing rotating structure of camera modules has defects. It only uses ordinary bearings to control the movement of the camera module. After long-term use, the camera module and the bearing are prone to loosening, which causes the camera module to shake during movement and affects the image quality. Summary of the Invention

[0039] The quick-release component 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating component 4. The quick-release component 5 is used to fix the camera module and facilitate quick assembly and disassembly.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the rotating component 4 includes:

[0041] The fixing plate 404 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the machine body 1. Connecting block 403 is fixedly connected to the upper side of both ends of the fixing plate 404, and connecting block 405 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the other two ends of the fixing plate 404. The fixing plate 404 is used to fix the rotating component 4 to ensure that the rotating component 4 works normally.

[0042] In this solution, the rotating component 4 also includes:

[0043] An arc-shaped deflector plate 402 is disposed on one side of two connecting blocks 403. Each side of the two connecting blocks 403 has a movable hole. The two ends of the arc-shaped deflector plate 402 are movably connected to the two connecting blocks 403 by bolts. A power motor 407 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the connecting blocks 403. The drive end of the power motor 407 is connected to one end of the arc-shaped deflector plate 402 through a coupling. The arc-shaped deflector plate 402 is used to control the vertical rotation of the camera module.

[0044] Arc-shaped deflector plate 2 406 is located below arc-shaped deflector plate 1 402. Rotation holes are provided on opposite sides of the two connecting blocks 2 405. The two ends of arc-shaped deflector plate 2 406 are movably connected to the two connecting blocks 2 405 by bolts. A power motor 1 401 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the connecting blocks 2 405.

A damping ring 413 is fixedly connected at equal distances to the end of the connecting rod 408 away from the rotating seat 412. The outer walls of the two damping rings 413 abut against the interior of the first arc-shaped deflector plate 402 and the second arc-shaped deflector plate 406, respectively. The damping rings 413 are used to prevent the connecting rod 408 from shaking during rotation.

[0048] When the camera 7 is working, driven by the first motor 401 and the second motor 407, the first arc-shaped deflector plate 402 and the second arc-shaped deflector plate 406 can respectively drive the connecting rod 408 to rotate in the vertical and horizontal directions. At the same time, under the action of the cross shaft (411), the rotation of the connecting rod 408 can be guaranteed, and jamming can be avoided when the connecting rod 408 rotates. Under this linkage structure, the camera 7 can be adjusted at multiple angles, improving the imaging efficiency. Meanwhile, the two shock-absorbing rings 413, which are fixed at equal distances to one end of the connecting rod 408, always remain in contact with the inside of the first arc-shaped deflector plate 402 and the second arc-shaped deflector plate 406 when the connecting rod 408 rotates, preventing the camera 7 from shaking during adjustment and reducing the image quality.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the quick-release assembly 5 includes:

[0050] The clamping chamber 501 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the connecting rod 408. Two limiting holes are opened on opposite sides inside the clamping chamber 501. The same placement plate 506 is movably connected inside the four limiting holes. Telescopic springs 505 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on one side of the bottom of the placement plate 506. One end of the two telescopic springs 505 on the same side is fixedly connected to the inside of the clamping chamber 501. The two telescopic springs 505 are used to provide support force for the placement plate 506.

[0051] In this solution, quick-release component 5 also includes:

[0052] A clamping plate 503 is disposed inside the clamping chamber 501. Two round holes are opened on opposite sides of the clamping chamber 501. Rotating rods 504 are fixedly connected inside the two clamping plates 503. The two ends of the rotating rods 504 are movably connected to the two opposite round holes. The rotating rods 504 are used to rotate the clamping plates 503.

[0053] Multiple telescopic springs 507 are fixedly connected at equal intervals to one side of the clamping plate 503. One end of the multiple telescopic springs 507 on the same side is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping chamber 501. The clamping chamber 501 has a moving hole on the opposite side. A pressing block 502 is movably connected inside each of the two moving holes. One end of the pressing block 502 inside the clamping chamber 501 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate 503. The pressing block 502 is used to trigger the quick release assembly 5.

[0054] When disassembling and assembling the camera module, the clamping plate 503 is rotated by pushing the two pressing blocks 502 to displace them relative to each other. The placement plate 506, which has lost its limit, pushes out the old camera module under the action of the first telescopic spring 505. The new camera module is then pressed into the placement plate 506. After releasing the pressing blocks 502, the clamping plate 503 quickly clamps the camera module under the action of the second telescopic spring 507. With this linkage structure, the camera module can be quickly disassembled and assembled, improving work efficiency.

[0055] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A camera module includes the rotating structure described above, and also includes a camera module body 7. The camera module body 7 is placed on the upper side of the placement plate 506, and the upper side of the camera module body 7 abuts against one end of the clamping plate 503. A camera 8 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the camera module body 7.

[0056] Working principle: When camera 7 is working,

[0057] Workers turn on motor 1 (401) and motor 2 (407) respectively. Driven by motor 1 (401) and motor 2 (407), the arc-shaped deflector plate 1 (402) and arc-shaped deflector plate 2 (406) can respectively drive the connecting rod 408 to rotate in the vertical and horizontal directions. At the same time, under the action of the cross shaft 411, the rotation of the connecting rod 408 can be guaranteed, and jamming can be avoided when the connecting rod 408 rotates. With this linkage structure, the camera 7 can be adjusted at multiple angles. Then, the worker rotates the camera 7 to the required angle and starts working.

[0058] When assembling or disassembling the camera module, the clamping plate 503 is rotated by pushing the two pressing blocks 502 to displace them relative to each other. The placement plate 506, which has lost its limit, pushes out the old camera module under the action of the first telescopic spring 505. The new camera module is then pressed into the placement plate 506. After releasing the pressing blocks 502, the clamping plate 503 quickly clamps the camera module under the action of the second telescopic spring 507.

The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
