Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, specifically to a camera mounting structure and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of vehicle technology, installing PTZ cameras on vehicles can meet the needs of vehicles for monitoring, security, and data collection in different scenarios. With the development of technology, the functions and application scenarios of PTZ cameras are constantly expanding.

[0003] In related technologies, to reduce the vertical space occupied by vehicle-mounted gimbal cameras, a mounting structure for vehicle-mounted gimbal cameras has been proposed. This mounting structure includes an inner panel and an outer panel of a roof crossbeam, which are used to fix the vehicle-mounted gimbal camera in place. However, the installation operation of this mounting structure for vehicle-mounted gimbal cameras is cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a camera mounting structure and vehicle to overcome the problem of cumbersome installation and operation of related camera mounting structures.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] According to a first aspect of this application, this application provides a camera mounting structure for use in a vehicle, and the camera mounting structure includes a base and a camera module. The base is provided with a mounting groove, and the side wall of the mounting groove is provided with an insertion hole. The mounting groove is also provided with a first connecting structure. The camera module is mounted in the mounting groove, and the opposite ends of the camera module are respectively provided with a tongue and a second connecting structure. The tongue is inserted into the insertion hole, and the second connecting structure is connected to the first connecting structure.

[0007] Based on the above technical means, during the process of installing the camera module in the mounting slot, the matching relationship between the tongue and the hole, as well as the connection relationship between the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure, ensure that the camera module is stably installed in the mounting slot. This eliminates the need for an additional limiting structure and its installation operation at the end of the camera module away from the base, which helps to simplify the installation operation of the mounting structure.

[0008] In one possible implementation, one of the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure is an elastic buckle, and the other of the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure is a slot, with the elastic buckle and the slot engaging in a snap-fit ​​relationship.

[0009] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the design of the flexible clips and slots allows the camera module to be installed with a simple pressing action and to be unlocked and removed with minimal force. This design greatly simplifies the installation and removal process, eliminating the need for additional tools and improving operational efficiency.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the first connecting structure is an elastic buckle, and the second connecting structure is a slot, with the elastic buckle and the slot engaging in a snap-fit ​​relationship; or, the first connecting structure is a slot, and the second connecting structure is an elastic buckle, with the elastic buckle and the slot engaging in a snap-fit ​​relationship.

[0011] Based on the above technical means, when the first connecting structure on the camera module is set as an elastic buckle, the forming method of the elastic buckle is simple; and when the second connecting structure on the base is an elastic buckle, the elastic buckle has higher mechanical strength and is not easily damaged by external forces, which helps to improve the connection stability and reliability of the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure.

[0012] In one possible implementation, one of the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure is a threaded connector and the other is a threaded hole, and the threaded connector and the threaded hole are connected and fitted together.

[0013] Based on the above technical means, the mechanical fixing method of threaded connectors and threaded holes can not only withstand large tensile and shear forces, but also effectively prevent the equipment from loosening or shifting due to vibrations during vehicle operation, ensuring the stable operation of the camera module under various road conditions.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the tongue is a metal structural component.

[0015] Based on the above technical means, the tongue formed as a metal structural component has higher mechanical strength than non-metallic materials such as plastic, and can withstand greater external forces without being easily damaged or deformed. In this way, even if the vehicle experiences severe vibration or collision, the camera module can be firmly fixed, reducing the risk of accidental loosening.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the camera module includes a housing with a tongue disposed thereon.

[0017] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the tongue directly integrated into the housing facilitates matching between the tongue and the socket on the base, which is beneficial for precise positioning of the camera module during installation. This design makes the installation process simpler and faster; simply align the camera module and insert it to complete the initial fixation, thus improving installation efficiency.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the tongue is a metal structural component, and at least a portion of the housing includes a metal insert and a plastic material disposed on the metal insert, the portion of the metal insert being formed as the tongue.

[0019] Based on the above-mentioned technical means, metal inserts can be precisely embedded into plastic materials using injection molding technology, making the production process more efficient and reducing assembly steps. In addition, this can avoid the structural strength of the tongue itself and the connection strength of the tongue being insufficient due to directly forming the tongue from the plastic material of the shell.

[0020] In one possible implementation, the housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing, the lower housing including a metal insert and a plastic material.

[0021] The aforementioned technical means facilitate the arrangement, inspection, and maintenance of related structures within the shell.

[0022] In one possible implementation, the camera module includes a drive structure with a transmission connection and a camera assembly, wherein the drive structure is located inside the housing and the camera assembly is located outside the housing.

[0023] Based on the above technical means, placing the drive structure (such as motors, gears, etc.) inside the housing can effectively protect mechanical and electronic components from the influence of external environmental factors (such as dust, moisture, collisions, etc.), thereby improving the reliability and service life of the equipment; the camera assembly is located outside the housing, which facilitates direct interaction with the external environment and helps to reduce the interference of the housing on the shooting range of the camera module.

[0024] According to a second aspect of this application, this application provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned camera mounting structure.

[0025] The aforementioned technical methods are beneficial to improving the overall installation and production efficiency of vehicles.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0027] (1) In the process of installing the camera module in the mounting slot, the matching relationship between the tongue and the hole and the connection relationship between the first connection structure and the second connection structure make the camera module stably installed in the mounting slot. This eliminates the need for an additional limiting structure and its installation operation at the end of the camera module away from the base, which helps to simplify the installation operation of the mounting structure.

[0028] (2) The tongue of the metal structural component formed in this application has higher mechanical strength than non-metallic materials such as plastic, and can withstand greater external forces without being easily damaged or deformed. In this way, even if the vehicle experiences severe vibration or collision, the camera module can be firmly fixed, reducing the risk of accidental loosening.

[0029] It should be noted that the technical effects of the second implementation method can be found in the technical effects of the corresponding implementation method in the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.

[0030] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only, and do not limit this application. Attached Figure Description

[0043] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0045] In some embodiments, this application provides a vehicle. The specific type of vehicle is not specifically limited in this application; for example, the vehicle provided in this application can be an electric vehicle, a hybrid electric vehicle, or a solar-powered vehicle. Furthermore, the vehicle provided in this application can also be of different forms. For example, the vehicle provided in this application can be a sedan, a sport utility vehicle (SUV), or a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).

[0046] In some embodiments, the vehicle includes a camera mounting structure 100, which may be located inside or outside the vehicle, such as on the roof. Exemplarily, the camera mounting structure 100 includes a camera module capable of capturing images or performing video surveillance.

[0047] Next, see Figures 1-5 The camera mounting structure 100 provided in some embodiments of this application will be described below.

[0048] See Figures 1-5 In some embodiments, this application provides a camera mounting structure 100 for use in a vehicle. The camera mounting structure 100 includes a base 1 and a camera module 2. The base 1 has a mounting groove 11, and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 has an insertion hole 12. A first connecting structure 13 is also provided within the mounting groove 11. The camera module 2 is mounted within the mounting groove 11, and each of the opposite ends of the camera module 2 has a tongue 21 and a second connecting structure 22. The tongue 21 is inserted into the insertion hole 12, and the second connecting structure 22 is connected to the first connecting structure 13.

[0049] For example, camera module 2 is a gimbal camera module 2, which includes a camera 232 and a gimbal for supporting and adjusting the camera 232, enabling the camera 232 to rotate, tilt, etc. For instance, the gimbal allows the camera 232 to achieve omnidirectional rotation and smooth movement (typically 360 degrees horizontally and within a certain angle range vertically). Gimbal camera module 2 can be applied to scenarios requiring dynamic monitoring and tracking, such as security monitoring, drone photography, and vehicle monitoring.

[0050] During the use of the gimbal camera module 2, it can be remotely controlled via remote control, mobile application, or vehicle control program.

[0051] In some alternative implementations, the tongues 21 can be multiple ones arranged at intervals along the circumference of the camera module 2, and the corresponding second connecting structures 22 can also be multiple ones arranged at intervals along the circumference of the camera module 2, with the multiple tongues 21 and the multiple second connecting structures 22 arranged one-to-one.

[0052] For example, the camera mounting structure 100 can be mounted on the roof of a vehicle, wherein the base 1 is the roof beam of the vehicle, and the camera module 2 is mounted in the mounting slot 11, which can reduce the external protrusion height of the camera module toward the roof in the height direction of the vehicle.

[0053] Optionally, reinforcing ribs can also be provided on the tongue 21, which helps to enhance the structural strength of the tongue 21.

[0054] The socket 12 can effectively limit the tongue 21 in all directions except the insertion direction of the tongue 21, which helps to further improve the installation stability of the camera module 2 and avoid the camera module 2 from becoming loose due to bumps or vibrations encountered during vehicle operation.

[0055] The mating relationship between the tongue 21 and the socket 12, as well as the connection relationship between the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22, also facilitate technicians to regularly inspect and maintain the equipment, or quickly replace damaged parts when necessary.

[0056] Based on this, during the installation of the camera module 2 in the mounting slot 11, the cooperation relationship between the tongue 21 and the socket 12, as well as the connection relationship between the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22, effectively limit the camera module when the cooperation between the tongue 21 and the socket 12 provides effective positioning. The first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22 can further fix the camera module, so that the camera module 2 is stably installed in the mounting slot 11. This eliminates the need for an additional limiting structure and its installation operation at the end of the camera module 2 away from the base 1, which simplifies the installation operation of the mounting structure.

[0057] For example, the base 1 can be located at the junction of the windshield and the roof of the vehicle, and the width of the base 1 can be the same as the width of the vehicle body.

[0058] For example, the assembly process of the camera mounting structure 100 may include the following steps:

[0059] First, the camera module and the mounting slot 11 are positioned relative to each other by referring to the positional relationship between the tongue 21 and the socket 12 and the positional relationship between the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22; then, the tongue 21 is inserted into the socket 12 while the camera module is placed in the mounting slot 11; then, the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22 are connected.

[0060] See Figures 2-3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, one of the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22 is an elastic buckle 131, and the other of the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22 is a slot, with the elastic buckle 131 and the slot engaging in a snap-fit ​​relationship.

[0061] Optionally, the elastic buckle 131 may include a spring arm portion 1311 and a locking portion 1312, wherein the spring arm portion 1311 is elastically deformable and the locking portion 1312 is locked into the slot.

[0062] Optionally, the elastic buckle 131 may include an elastic element and a snap-fit ​​portion 1312 connected to the elastic element, the elastic element being elastically deformable.

[0063] Building upon this, the design of the elastic clip 131 and the slot allows the camera module 2 to be installed with a simple pressing action and to be unlocked and removed with minimal force. This design greatly simplifies the installation and removal process, eliminating the need for additional tools and improving operational efficiency.

[0064] See Figures 2-3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 13 is an elastic buckle 131, and the second connecting structure 22 is a slot, with the elastic buckle 131 and the slot engaging in a snap-fit ​​relationship.

[0065] During the installation of camera module 2 into mounting slot 11, elastic clip 131 is elastically compressed under external force, allowing camera module 2 to be installed into mounting slot 11. Afterwards, releasing elastic clip 131 allows it to engage with the groove on the inner wall of mounting slot 11 under elastic force, thus ensuring stable installation of camera module 2 within mounting slot 11. During disassembly of camera module 2, applying pressure to elastic clip 131 causes it to elastically compress, disengaging it from the inner wall of mounting slot 11. Afterwards, camera module 2 can be removed from mounting slot 11, thus detaching it from mounting slot 11. Elastic clip 131 facilitates easy installation and removal of camera module 2, simplifying the operation and enabling rapid installation and removal.

[0066] In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 13 is a slot, and the second connecting structure 22 is an elastic buckle 131, which engages with the slot.

[0067] Based on this, when the first connecting structure 13 on the camera module 2 is set as an elastic buckle 131, the forming method of the elastic buckle 131 is simple; and when the second connecting structure 22 on the base 1 is an elastic buckle 131, the elastic buckle 131 has higher mechanical strength and is not easily damaged by external forces, which helps to improve the connection stability and reliability of the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22.

[0068] In some embodiments, one of the first connecting structure 13 and the second connecting structure 22 is a threaded connector and the other is a threaded hole, and the threaded connector and the threaded hole are connected and fitted together.

[0069] For example, the first connecting structure 13 is a threaded connector, and the second connecting structure 22 is a threaded hole. Specifically, the mounting groove 11 has a connecting hole that penetrates the base 1, and the threaded connector passes through the connecting hole and is locked and fixed in the mounting groove 11.

[0070] For example, the first connecting structure 13 is a threaded hole, and the second connecting structure 22 is a threaded connector. Specifically, the camera module 2 is provided with a connecting hole, and the threaded connector can be inserted into or pass through the connecting hole and locked and fixed to the camera module 2.

[0071] For example, threaded fasteners can be nuts, screws, or bolts.

[0072] Based on this, the mechanical fixing method of threaded connectors and threaded holes can not only withstand large tensile and shear forces, but also effectively prevent the equipment from loosening or shifting due to vibrations during vehicle operation, ensuring the stable operation of camera module 2 under various road conditions.

[0073] See Figures 3-4 In some embodiments, the tongue 21 is a metal structural component. For example, the metal structural component can be a steel structural component.

[0074] Based on this, the tongue 21, which is formed as a metal structural component, has higher mechanical strength than non-metallic materials such as plastic. It can withstand greater external forces without being easily damaged or deformed. In this way, even if the vehicle encounters sudden braking, high-speed turning, or other situations that cause severe vibration or collision, the tongue 21, which is made of metal structural components, can withstand these high stress conditions without deformation or breakage. This allows the camera module 2 to be firmly fixed, avoiding loosening or displacement due to vibration and reducing the risk of accidental loosening.

[0075] See Figures 3-4 In some embodiments, the camera module 2 includes a housing 3, and a tongue 21 is disposed in the housing 3. The housing 3 is housed within a mounting groove 11.

[0076] In some alternative embodiments, the camera module 2 includes a camera assembly 23 and a drive structure 4 that are connected by a drive mechanism, both of which may be housed within the housing 3.

[0077] Based on this, the tongue 21 directly integrated into the housing 3 facilitates matching between the tongue 21 and the socket 12 on the base 1, which is beneficial for the precise positioning of the camera module 2 during installation. This design makes the installation process simpler and faster; simply align the camera module 2 and insert it to complete the initial fixation, thus improving installation efficiency.

[0078] See Figures 3-4 In some embodiments, the tongue 21 is a metal structural component, and at least a portion of the housing 3 includes a metal insert and a plastic material disposed on the metal insert, the portion of the metal insert being formed as the tongue 21.

[0079] The housing 3 may include at least a metal insert and a plastic material disposed on the metal insert, and may include the following situations: for example, a portion of the housing 3 may include a metal insert and a plastic material disposed on the metal insert; or, for example, the entire housing 3 may include a metal insert and a plastic material disposed on the metal insert.

[0080] The integration of metal inserts and plastic materials into one piece helps to ensure the structural strength of the housing 3 and the connection strength between the tongue 21 and other parts of the housing 3.

[0081] Based on this, injection molding technology can be used to precisely embed metal inserts into plastic materials, making the production process more efficient and reducing assembly steps; in addition, this can avoid the structural strength of the tongue 21 itself and the connection strength of the tongue 21 being insufficient due to directly forming the tongue 21 from the plastic material of the housing 3.

[0082] This molding method can significantly improve the overall mechanical strength of the camera module 2, especially during frequent insertion and removal, ensuring that the tongue 21 is not easily damaged or deformed.

[0083] See Figures 3-4 In some embodiments, the housing 3 includes an upper housing 31 and a lower housing 32, with the lower housing 32 comprising metal inserts and plastic material. This facilitates the arrangement, inspection, and maintenance of related structures within the housing 3.

[0084] In some optional embodiments, the upper housing 31 has a connecting edge protruding from the lower housing 32. The connecting edge of the upper housing 31 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 are provided with a plurality of connecting through holes 14. Fasteners are inserted through the through holes 14 to fix the housing 3 to the base 1, thereby enabling the camera module 2 to be further fixed to the base 1.

[0085] Furthermore, to ensure waterproof performance, a first sealing structure can be provided at the connection point between the housing 3 and the base 1. The first sealing structure can be located at the edge of the upper housing 31. For example, the first sealing structure can be an annular waterproof sealing ring that conforms to the outer contour of the upper housing 31.

[0086] See Figures 3-4 In some embodiments, the camera module 2 includes a drive structure 4 and a camera assembly 23 connected by a drive structure 4 located inside the housing 3 and the camera assembly 23 located outside the housing 3.

[0087] For example, the camera assembly 23 includes a cover 231 and a camera 232 disposed within the cover 231. The drive structure 4 is rotatably connected to the cover 231 to drive the camera assembly 23 to rotate relative to the base 1.

[0088] See Figures 3-4 In some optional embodiments, the upper housing 31 and the lower housing 32 are detachably connected, for example, the upper housing 31 and the lower housing 32 are snap-fit ​​connected, which facilitates the installation of the drive structure 4 inside the housing 3.

[0089] See Figures 3-4The drive structure 4 includes a drive motor, a transmission mechanism, and a rotating shaft 41. The drive mechanism is connected to the rotating shaft 41 via the transmission mechanism. The upper housing 31 has a clearance hole 311 for the rotating shaft 41 to pass through, and the rotating shaft 41 passes through the upper housing 31 and is connected to the cover 231. A damping element 42 is provided between the rotating shaft 41 and the upper housing 31 to provide damping force for the rotation of the rotating shaft 41. The rotating shaft 41 is driven to rotate by the drive mechanism, and the damping element 42 between the rotating shaft 41 and the upper housing 31 provides damping force for the rotation of the rotating shaft 41. When the rotating shaft 41 is not driven, it will not twist arbitrarily under vibration conditions. A limiting sleeve is circumferentially fitted on the rotating shaft 41, and the damping element 42 is a wave spring connected to the limiting sleeve. By providing a wave spring on the limiting sleeve, the groove structure for installing the wave spring on the rotating shaft 41 can be avoided, reducing the processing cost of the rotating shaft 41.

[0090] In some optional embodiments, the drive motor is horizontally positioned, and the transmission mechanism is a reduction gear set, with the drive motor connected to the reduction gear set via a worm gear structure. In some alternative embodiments, the drive motor may also employ other structures to connect to the reduction gear set, such as a bevel gear structure. The reduction gear set has multiple transmission gears connected in sequence, and these gears are driven by meshing.

[0091] Based on this, placing the drive structure 4 (such as a drive motor, gears, etc.) inside the housing 3 effectively protects mechanical and electronic components from external environmental factors (such as dust, moisture, impact, etc.), improving the reliability and service life of the equipment. The camera assembly 23 is located outside the housing 3, facilitating direct interaction with the external environment and reducing interference from the housing 3 on the shooting range of the camera module 2. The camera lens can freely rotate, tilt, or pitch to obtain the optimal field of view coverage.

[0092] By rationally arranging the drive structure 4 inside the housing 3 and the camera assembly 23 outside the housing 3, the center of gravity of the entire camera module 2 can be made more stable, reducing the impact of vibrations generated during vehicle movement on the shooting quality.

[0093] See Figure 3 In some optional embodiments, the camera module 2 also includes a wiring harness 5 electrically connected between the drive assembly and the vehicle's electronic control components.

[0094] In some alternative embodiments, the camera mounting structure 100 may further include a decorative panel, which is fixed to the outside of the base 1 and can cover the camera module 2. The decorative panel has mounting holes at corresponding positions that allow the camera module 2 to pass through.

[0095] According to the second aspect of this application, this application provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned camera mounting structure 100. This, in turn, helps to improve the overall installation and production efficiency of the vehicle.

[0096] The above are merely specific embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
