Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single embodiment or an embodiment selectively excluded from other embodiments.
[0028] Example 1:
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model.
[0030] This embodiment provides a detachable snap-fit mounting device for an industrial camera lens, including: a mounting bracket 1, a support base 2 fixed to the bottom front side of the mounting bracket 1 by bolts, a fixing base 3 fixed to the front end of the mounting bracket 1 by bolts, a camera body 4 disposed at the front end of the fixing base 3, a lens 15 disposed at the front end of the camera body 4, and a focal length adjustment ring 16 disposed on the outer side of the front end of the lens 15.
[0031] Specifically, the front end of the camera body 4 is provided with an annular slot 14, one end of the lens 15 is adapted to the internal size of the annular slot 14, and four movable slots 17 are symmetrically provided on the side of the lens 15 near the camera body 4.
[0032] Furthermore, one end of the lens 15 is size-matched to the annular slot 14 opened at the front end of the camera body 4, so that one end of the lens 15 can be inserted into the annular slot 14 to complete the initial fixation of the lens 15 and the annular slot 14.
[0033] Specifically, the movable groove 17 is provided with a limiting pin 18 inside, and a second limiting spring 19 is provided at the bottom of the limiting pin 18. The two ends of the second limiting spring 19 are fixedly connected to the limiting pin 18 and the lens 15 respectively. The outer side of the camera body 4 is provided with a matching limiting hole 20 corresponding to the position of the limiting pin 18.
[0034] Furthermore, the limiting pin 18 on the outer side of one end of the lens 15 is pressed inward by the outside of the annular slot 14. While the limiting pin 18 retracts inward, it compresses the second limiting spring 19 at the bottom, inserting one end of the lens 15 into the bottom of the annular slot 14. Rotating the lens 15, the limiting pin 18 is pushed into the limiting hole 20 opened inside the camera body 4 by the restoring force of the second limiting spring 19.
[0035] In use, one end of the lens 15 can be inserted into the annular slot 14 at the front end of the camera body 4, and the limiting pin 18 can be pushed into the limiting hole 20 by the second limiting spring 19 to complete the fixation of the camera body 4 and the lens 15.
[0036] In summary, the camera body 4 and the mounting base 3 are installed to the mounting bracket 1 using bolts. The support base 2 provided at the bottom of one side of the mounting bracket 1 can improve the stability of the mounting bracket 1. One end of the lens 15 is adapted to the size of the annular slot 14 opened at the front end of the camera body 4, so one end of the lens 15 can be inserted into the annular slot 14 to complete the initial fixation of the lens 15 and the annular slot 14. The limiting pin 18 on the outside of one end of the lens 15 is pressed inward by the outside of the annular slot 14. While the limiting pin 18 retracts inward, it compresses the second limiting spring 19 at the bottom. One end of the lens 15 is inserted into the bottom of the annular slot 14. The lens 15 is rotated, and the restoring force of the second limiting spring 19 pushes the limiting pin 18 into the limiting hole 20 opened inside the camera body 4 to fix the camera body 4 and the lens 15, thereby improving the stability of the lens 15.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 This is the second embodiment of the present utility model.
[0039] Specifically, an arc-shaped groove 6 is provided on the outer side of the camera body 4 at the position corresponding to the limiting hole 20, and a fixing ring 7 is sleeved on the outside of the camera body 4. A movable ring 8 is provided in the middle of the fixing ring 7, and the movable ring 8 divides the fixing ring 7 into two parts.
[0040] Furthermore, the fixed ring 7 is located on both sides of the movable ring 8, and the fixed ring 7 and the movable ring 8 are located outside the arc-shaped groove 6.
[0041] Specifically, limit blocks 11 are provided on the inner side of the movable ring 8 at the position corresponding to the arc-shaped slide groove 6, and one side of the limit block 11 is inclined.
[0042] Furthermore, the limiting block 11 can move inside the arc-shaped groove 6 via the movable ring 8.
[0043] Specifically, four arc-shaped through slots 9 are symmetrically provided in the middle of the movable ring 8. Each of the four arc-shaped through slots 9 is provided with a fixing rod 10. The two ends of the fixing rod 10 are fixedly connected to the fixing rings 7 on both sides of the movable ring 8. The movable ring 8 can rotate with the fixing rings 7 through the fixing rods 10 and the arc-shaped through slots 9.
[0044] Furthermore, the movable ring 8 is guided and limited within the fixed ring 7 by the fixed rod 10 and the arc-shaped through groove 9, thereby adjusting the position of the inner limit block 11 of the movable ring 8.
[0045] Specifically, four T-shaped sliders 12 are symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the front end of the fixing ring 7, and a matching T-shaped groove 5 is opened on the outer side of the camera body 4 corresponding to the position of the T-shaped sliders 12. The T-shaped sliders 12 and the T-shaped grooves 5 are slidably connected.
[0046] Furthermore, the T-shaped groove 5 is adapted to the shape of the T-shaped slider 12, and the T-shaped slider 12 can slide back and forth through the T-shaped groove 5.
[0047] Specifically, a first limiting spring 13 is provided inside the T-shaped slide 5, and the two ends of the first limiting spring 13 are fixedly connected to the T-shaped slider 12 and the camera body 4, respectively.
[0048] Furthermore, the force of the first limiting spring 13 can push the T-shaped slider 12 to always be in a fixed position inside the T-shaped groove 5.
[0049] When in use, press the fixed ring 7. The fixed ring 7 drives the movable ring 8 to move through the T-shaped slide 5 and the T-shaped slider 12. The fixed ring 7 drives the limiting block 11 inside the movable ring 8 to move inside the arc-shaped slide 6. Rotate the movable ring 8. The limiting block 11 inside the movable ring 8 presses down on the limiting pin 18, causing the limiting pin 18 to exit the limiting hole 20.
[0050] In summary, by pressing the fixed ring 7 to one side, the fixed ring 7 drives the movable ring 8 to move through the T-shaped slide 5 and the T-shaped slider 12. The fixed ring 7 drives the T-shaped slider 12 to move and squeeze the first limiting spring 13. By rotating the movable ring 8, the position of the limiting block 11 and the movable ring 8 is fixed by the shape of the arc-shaped slide 6, so that the limiting block 11 on the inner side of the movable ring 8 can continuously squeeze the limiting pin 18, so that the limiting pin 18 is removed from the inside of the limiting hole 20, thus completing the disassembly of the lens 15 and the camera body 4.
