Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle-mounted equipment, specifically a dual-camera integrated camera for front and rear of a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Front and rear dual-camera integrated cameras combine front and rear camera functions to simultaneously capture images from the front of the vehicle and the driver's cabin while the vehicle is in motion, assisting in driving recording and safety monitoring. They are widely used in in-vehicle imaging systems. However, in practical use, common products have significant drawbacks: insufficient impact resistance. Bumps during vehicle movement and collisions with external objects can easily damage the camera's lens and body, affecting shooting stability and device lifespan, and failing to reliably guarantee the continuous effectiveness of the driving recording function.

[0003] Publication number CN211479197U describes a dashcam with dual high-definition cameras (front and rear). It features a lower and upper housing structure, with front and rear cameras mounted via mounting brackets and other components. The housing encloses the camera body. The description also mentions that the mounting bracket allows for camera rotation and adjustment to optimize the shooting angle, attempting to provide basic protection while balancing aesthetics and functional adjustment through the housing structure.

[0004] However, a simple shell enclosure is insufficient for the targeted protection of critical components such as the camera lens. External impacts can easily penetrate the shell and affect internal parts, failing to effectively absorb and buffer impact forces. On the other hand, without a dedicated impact-resistant structure designed for critical camera components, abnormal shooting functions and equipment damage can still occur when facing impacts in the complex environment of a vehicle.

[0005] Therefore, a dual-camera system integrating front and rear cameras is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a dual-camera integrated camera for front and rear vehicles, which can solve the problems mentioned in the background.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle front and rear dual-camera integrated camera, including a camera body, an illumination head is provided in the middle of the front of the camera body, a connecting line is provided on the back of the camera body, an extension tube is provided at the connection between the front of the camera body and the illumination head, an insertion port is provided on the outer side of the extension tube, and a knife-type support rod is inserted into the inner side of the insertion port.

[0008] The inner side of the extension tube is provided with an outer spiral surface, and an outer sleeve is provided outside the outer spiral surface. An inner spiral surface is provided at the connection between the inner side of the outer sleeve and the outer spiral surface. An anti-collision strip is provided on the front side of the outer sleeve in an annular shape.

[0009] Preferably, the side structure of the anti-collision strip is an L-shaped arc, and the anti-collision strip is fixedly connected to the front of the outer sleeve.

[0010] Preferably, the contact portion between the blade-type support rod and the socket is rectangular, and the shape of the blade-type support rod covering the front of the camera body is Z-shaped.

[0011] Preferably, the internal thread structure of the internal thread surface matches the external thread structure of the external thread surface.

[0012] Preferably, the extension tube has a double-layer cylindrical structure, and the extension tube is fixedly connected to the front of the camera body.

[0013] Preferably, the area of ​​the front end portion of the outer sleeve is larger than the area of ​​the irradiation head.

[0014] Preferably, the height of the outer sleeve is equal to the height of the inner side of the extension sleeve.

[0015] Preferably, the width of the blade-type support rod is equal to the width of the socket.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a vehicle front and rear dual-camera integrated camera, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This vehicle features a front and rear dual-camera integrated system. The system utilizes an extension tube, an outer tube, and a bumper strip. The extension tube has a double-layered cylindrical structure, providing installation space for the outer tube. The front area of ​​the outer tube is larger than the illumination head, absorbing impact. The bumper strip has an L-shaped structure, absorbing impact force and preventing direct damage to the outer tube, effectively protecting the illumination head, enhancing the camera's impact resistance, and ensuring stable shooting functionality.

[0018] 2. The device utilizes a structural design of a blade-type support rod and a socket, an extension tube and an outer sleeve. The Z-shaped structure and rectangular contact part of the blade-type support rod increase the contact area with external components, preventing assembly wobbling. The matching of the inner thread surface and the outer thread curved surface ensures a stable connection between the outer sleeve and the extension tube, improving the assembly stability and structural reliability of the camera, and making it suitable for use in vehicle environments.

[0025] 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.

[0026] Example

[0027] A vehicle front and rear dual-camera integrated camera includes a camera body 1, an illumination head 6 is provided in the middle of the front of the camera body 1, a connecting line 2 is provided on the back of the camera body 1, an extension tube 7 is provided at the connection between the front of the camera body 1 and the illumination head 6, an insertion port 9 is provided on the outer side of the extension tube 7, and a knife-type support rod 5 is inserted into the inner side of the insertion port 9.

[0028] An outer spiral surface 10 is provided on the inner side of the extension cylinder 7, and an outer sleeve 4 is provided on the outside of the outer spiral surface 10. An inner spiral surface 8 is provided at the connection between the inner side of the outer sleeve 4 and the outer spiral surface 10. An anti-collision strip 3 is provided on the front side of the outer sleeve 4 in an annular shape.

[0029] The user first connects the connecting cable 2 to the designated part of the external car, and then installs the camera body 1 in the designated position. The connecting cable 2 transmits electrical signals into the camera body 1. The illuminator 6 on the front of the camera body 1 senses the electrical signal and starts to turn on. At this time, the illuminator 6 takes pictures of the external situation.

[0030] Furthermore, because the external of the irradiation head 6 is fixedly provided with an extension tube 7, the extension tube 7 can prevent the external accessories of the irradiation head 6 from being excessively squeezed.

[0031] Meanwhile, the annular opening 9 on the outside of the extension tube 7 provides a position for inserting the blade support rod 5. When the user inserts the blade support rod 5 into the opening 9, the opening 9 is in an open state, and the end point of the opening 9 is longer than the outer edge of the camera body 1. Therefore, the opening 9 can increase the contact area between the camera body 1 and the external accessories, preventing the camera body 1 from shaking during assembly.

[0032] In addition, the user screws the outer sleeve 4 into the extension sleeve 7. The front of the outer sleeve 4 is covered with a ring of anti-collision strips 3, which prevent external objects from hitting the front of the irradiation head 6 in a straight line.

[0033] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5 The camera body 1 has an illumination head 6 in the middle of the front, a connecting line 2 on the back, and an extension tube 7 at the connection between the front of the camera body 1 and the illumination head 6. The extension tube 7 has an insertion port 9 on the outside, and a knife-type support rod 5 is inserted into the inside of the insertion port 9.

[0034] An outer spiral surface 10 is provided on the inner side of the extension cylinder 7, and an outer sleeve 4 is provided on the outside of the outer spiral surface 10. An inner spiral surface 8 is provided at the connection between the inner side of the outer sleeve 4 and the outer spiral surface 10. An anti-collision strip 3 is provided on the front of the outer sleeve 4 in an annular shape.

[0035] The side structure of the anti-collision strip 3 is an L-shaped arc, and the anti-collision strip 3 is fixedly connected to the front of the outer sleeve 4;

[0036] The anti-collision strip 3 has an L-shaped structure. The short part of the anti-collision strip 3 is connected to the surface of the outer sleeve 4, while the long part of the outer sleeve 4 is located on the front of the outer sleeve 4. Because the anti-collision strip 3 is arranged in a ring, when an external object hits the surface of the anti-collision strip 3, the long part of the anti-collision strip 3 can absorb a large impact force. The short part of the anti-collision strip 3 also keeps a certain distance between it and the surface of the outer sleeve 4. Therefore, the anti-collision strip 3 will not directly damage the surface of the outer sleeve 4 after being subjected to force.

[0037] The internal thread structure of the internal thread surface 8 matches the external thread structure of the external thread surface 10.

[0038] When the outer sleeve 4 is screwed into the inner sleeve 7, the inner thread surface 8 is screwed onto the outer thread curved surface 10, and they are tightly interlocked. Therefore, when the anti-collision strip 3 is subjected to force to squeeze the outer sleeve 4, the connection between the outer sleeve 4 and the inner sleeve 7 will not loosen.

[0039] The extension tube 7 has a double-layer cylindrical structure, and the extension tube 7 is fixedly connected to the front of the camera body 1.

[0040] Furthermore, because the extension tube 7 has a double-layer cylindrical structure, and the outer spiral surface 10 is located on the outer side of the inner cylindrical part of the extension tube 7, the inner gap of the extension tube 7 can provide space for the insertion of the outer sleeve 4. Since the extension tube 7 is fixedly connected to the front of the camera body 1, the extension tube 7 will not easily fall off the front of the camera body 1.

[0041] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5The camera body 1 has an illumination head 6 in the middle of the front, a connecting line 2 on the back, and an extension tube 7 at the connection between the front of the camera body 1 and the illumination head 6. The extension tube 7 has an insertion port 9 on the outside, and a knife-type support rod 5 is inserted into the inside of the insertion port 9.

[0042] An outer spiral surface 10 is provided on the inner side of the extension cylinder 7, and an outer sleeve 4 is provided on the outside of the outer spiral surface 10. An inner spiral surface 8 is provided at the connection between the inner side of the outer sleeve 4 and the outer spiral surface 10. An anti-collision strip 3 is provided on the front of the outer sleeve 4 in an annular shape.

[0043] The contact part between the blade-type support rod 5 and the socket 9 is a rectangular structure, and the shape of the blade-type support rod 5 covering the front of the camera body 1 is a Z-shaped structure.

[0044] The blade-type support rod 5 and the socket 9 are connected by a plug-in joint. The contact area between the blade-type support rod 5 and the socket 9 has a rectangular structure, which facilitates the user to quickly insert the blade-type support rod 5. The rest of the blade-type support rod 5 has a Z-shaped structure, and its Z-shaped part abuts against the surface of the camera body 1. The part of the blade-type support rod 5 that extends beyond the edge of the camera body 1 is flush with the surface of the camera body 1. Therefore, the blade-type support rod 5 can help the camera body 1 increase its contact area with external components.

[0045] The area of ​​the front end of the outer sleeve 4 is larger than the area of ​​the irradiation head 6;

[0046] The front end of the outer sleeve 4 has a larger surface area than the irradiation head 6. Therefore, the force-bearing area of ​​the outer sleeve 4 is greater than that of the irradiation head 6. When the front end of the outer sleeve 4 is impacted, the outer sleeve 4 will absorb most of the force to protect the stability of the irradiation head 6.

[0047] The installation, connection, or setting methods disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connection methods. As long as they can achieve their beneficial effects, they can be implemented. Therefore, this embodiment will not elaborate on their specific structural composition and working principle.

[0048] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
