Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera technology, and in particular to an adjustment mechanism for a camera. Background Technology
[0002] The adjustment mechanism for a camera is a multi-directional adjustable mechanical device (such as pitch, rotation, and translation) used to precisely fix and flexibly adjust the camera angle to ensure the best shooting field of view.
[0003] Traditional camera adjustment mechanisms typically consist of an arc-shaped adjustment plate and locking bolts. During installation, the mechanism is first fixed to the bracket, and then the camera is installed on the adjustment mechanism. When adjusting the angle, the locking bolts must be loosened first, and then tightened to fix the camera in place. However, the locking bolts are exposed, and after long-term use, they may become corroded and unable to be tightened, affecting stability. Therefore, this solution proposes an adjustment mechanism for cameras to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 An adjustment mechanism for a camera, shown, is applied to the camera body 1 and includes:
[0024] Adjustment component 2 includes an adjustment rod 201 fixedly connected to the bottom of the camera body 1, a ball head 202 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the adjustment rod 201, a fixing seat 204 provided at the bottom of the camera body 1, a ball socket 203 opened at the top of the fixing seat 204, and the ball head 202 inserted into the inside of the ball socket 203.
[0025] Locking component 3 is located at the bottom of ball head 202 and is used to compress ball head 202;
[0026] Restriction component 4 is located at the bottom of locking component 3 and is used to prevent locking component 3 from moving.
[0027] It should be noted that two threaded holes are symmetrically opened at the bottom of the fixing base 204. When it is necessary to fix the mechanism in the required position, first move the fixing base 204 to the required mounting bracket, and then pass the bolts through the mounting bracket and the threaded holes in sequence to fix the position of the fixing base 204. The ball socket 203 is adapted to the ball head 202, so that the ball head 202 can be inserted and connected inside the ball socket 203. The ball socket 203 restricts the movement of the ball head 202 and allows the ball head 202 to rotate inside the ball socket 203. The angle of the camera body 1 can be adjusted by rotating the ball head 202. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the camera body 1, the camera body 1 drives the ball head 202 to move inside the ball socket 203. After adjusting to the required angle, the position is locked by the locking component 3 and the locking component 4 is used to restrict the locking component 3 to prevent the lock from loosening.
[0028] Specifically, the locking component 3 includes a pressing block 301 disposed at the bottom of the ball head 202. A threaded rod 304 for moving the position of the pressing block 301 is disposed at the bottom of the pressing block 301. A rotating block 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the threaded rod 304. A cavity 303 is opened in the inner wall of the bottom end of the ball socket 203. The pressing block 301 is inserted into the cavity 303. A guide 5 is disposed at the connection between the pressing block 301 and the cavity 303. The threaded rod 304 is threadedly inserted into the inner wall of the bottom end of the cavity 303. A fixed bearing 302 is inserted into the bottom of the pressing block 301. The fixed bearing 302 is sleeved on the top end of the threaded rod 304.
[0029] It should be noted that the guide member 5 is used to restrict the rotation of the extrusion block 301. The cavity 303 is adapted to the extrusion block 301, allowing the extrusion block 301 to slide inside the cavity 303. The fixed bearing 302 is a conventional ball bearing, which is used to connect the extrusion block 301 and the threaded rod 304, allowing the threaded rod 304 to rotate at the bottom of the extrusion block 301. A threaded hole is provided on the inner wall at the bottom of the cavity 303, and the threaded rod 304 is threadedly inserted into the inside of the threaded hole. A hexagonal groove is provided at the bottom of the rotating block 305. In use, a hexagonal wrench is inserted into the rotating block 305, and the rotating block 305 is rotated by the hexagonal wrench. When the adjustment mechanism is fixed on the mounting bracket, a hole is provided on the mounting bracket for the tool to pass through, so that the hexagonal wrench can pass through the mounting bracket and connect with the rotating block 305.
[0030] Furthermore, after adjusting the camera body 1, the rotating block 305 is rotated, which drives the threaded rod 304 to rotate. The rotating threaded rod 304 moves on the fixed seat 204 that is threadedly connected to it and fixed in position. The moving threaded rod 304 drives the pressing block 301 to move, and fixes the ball head 202 inside the ball socket 203 by pressing and clamping.
[0031] Specifically, the guide member 5 includes sliders 501 that are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the extrusion block 301, and grooves 502 that are symmetrically opened on the inner walls of both sides of the cavity 303, with the sliders 501 inserted into the inside of the grooves 502.
[0032] It should be noted that the slider 501 is adapted to the groove 502, and there are at least two sliders 501 and grooves 502. The restriction of sliders 501 and grooves 502 prevents the extrusion block 301 from rotating inside the cavity 303.
[0033] Example 2: Limiting component 4 is applied to the adjustment mechanism in Example 1;
[0034] Specifically, the limiting component 4 includes a pressing groove 401 opened at the bottom of the fixed base 204, a rotating block 305 inserted into the inside of the pressing groove 401, a pressing block 402 inserted into the inner wall of one side of the pressing groove 401, a push plate 403 fixedly connected to one side of the pressing block 402, a spring 405 provided on one side of the push plate 403, a connecting rod 406 fixedly connected to one side of the push plate 403, a pulling block 407 fixedly connected to one side of the connecting rod 406, a pushing groove 404 opened at the bottom of the fixed base 204, the push plate 403 and the spring 405 both inserted into the inside of the pushing groove 404, and the connecting rod 406 inserted into the inner wall of one side of the pushing groove 404.
[0035] It should be noted that the pressing groove 401 is adapted to the pressing block 402, allowing the pressing block 402 to move within the pressing groove 401; the pushing groove 404 is adapted to the pushing plate 403, allowing the pushing plate 403 to slide within the pushing groove 404, and the spring 405 is located on the side of the pushing plate 403 away from the pressing block 402. At this time, the spring 405 is in a compressed state, and through the pushing of the spring 405, the pushing plate 403 is pushed towards the pressing block 402. The rotating block 305 is positioned on top of the pressing block 402 and is pressed against the inner wall of the top of the pressing groove 401. The pressing block 402 squeezes and restricts the rotating block 305, preventing it from moving downwards. The connecting rod 406 connects the pushing plate 403 inside the pushing groove 404 and the pulling block 407 outside the pushing groove 404, and the pulling block 407 drives the pushing plate 403 and the pressing block 402 to move.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. 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.
