Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network camera technology, and in particular to a network camera device for controlling the multi-angle rotation of a pan-tilt unit. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of network and video surveillance technologies, network cameras are increasingly widely used in smart cities, home security, commercial monitoring, and many other fields. Users have ever-increasing demands for the functionality of network cameras, expecting them to cover a wider monitoring range and achieve comprehensive, blind-spot-free scene recording. However, existing network cameras suffer from inadequate protective measures, lacking effective protection for critical components such as lenses and charging ports. Dust and moisture can easily penetrate the device, not only contaminating the lens and reducing image quality but also potentially causing circuit malfunctions and shortening the device's lifespan.

[0003] Regarding the above-mentioned and existing related technologies, the inventor believes that the following defects often exist: existing network cameras have imperfect protective measures and lack effective protection for key parts such as lenses and charging interfaces. Dust and moisture can easily penetrate into the device, which can not only contaminate the lens and reduce image quality, but also cause circuit failures. Therefore, in order to address the above problems, a network camera device for controlling the pan-tilt unit to rotate at multiple angles is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing network cameras, such as inadequate protective measures, lack of effective protection for key components like lenses and charging interfaces, and the ease with which dust and moisture can penetrate the device, contaminating the lens, reducing image quality, and potentially causing circuit malfunctions. The invention proposes a network camera device for controlling the multi-angle rotation of the pan-tilt unit.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a network camera device for controlling the multi-angle rotation of a pan-tilt unit, comprising a base, a support plate rotatably connected inside the base, a rotating frame mounted on one side of the support plate, a camera device mounted on one side of the rotating frame, a camera installed inside the camera device, and a control module installed inside the camera device, the model of which includes, but is not limited to, RMC-300C. Two fixing plates are fixedly connected to the surface of the camera device, a groove is formed on one side of the fixing plate, a sliding block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove of the fixing plate, a protective plate is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding block, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the protective plate, and a threaded rod is threadedly inserted into the connecting plate, one end of the threaded rod abutting against the surface of the camera device.

[0006] The aforementioned components achieve the following effect: by setting up a protective plate, the camera is protected. When the camera is idle or faces risks such as dust, rain, or impact from foreign objects, the threaded rod is rotated to separate it from the surface of the camera equipment, pushing the protective plate along the groove of the fixing plate to the front of the camera. Then, the threaded rod is tightened to fix the protective plate, forming a reliable protective barrier. This effectively isolates the camera from external adverse factors, reduces the probability of lens contamination, scratches, and physical damage, and improves the practicality of the device.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the threaded rod is fixedly connected to an abutment plate, and one side of the abutment plate abuts against the camera device.

[0008] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is that by setting up the abutment plate, the contact area between the threaded rod and the camera equipment is increased, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0009] Preferably, a ball bearing is rotatably connected inside the sliding block, and the ball bearing is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove in the fixed plate.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting ball bearings, the sliding block can slide in the groove of the fixed plate, which improves the convenience of the device.

[0011] Preferably, an operating handle is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective plate, and the surface of the operating handle is provided with anti-slip protrusions.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is that by setting up operating handles, it is easier for staff to operate the protective plate, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0013] Preferably, the surface of the camera device is covered with a protective cover, which is an elastic protective cover.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the elastic protective cover on the surface of the camera equipment, with its own material flexibility and elastic deformation ability, can fit tightly to the surface of the camera equipment. When the equipment is subjected to external impacts such as collisions or drops, the elastic protective cover can effectively absorb and disperse the impact force, and prevent the camera from being damaged by rigid collisions.

[0015] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base, and the surface of the anti-slip pad is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0016] The effects achieved by the above components are as follows: the anti-slip pads fixedly connected to the bottom of the base and the anti-slip grooves on the surface can significantly enhance the stability of the network camera device, increase the friction between the device and the mounting surface, prevent the camera from sliding or shifting due to external forces during use, and improve the practicality of the device.

[0017] Preferably, a charging port is installed on one side of the camera device, a sealing plug is slidably connected to the inner wall of the charging port, a soft rope is fixedly connected to one side of the sealing plug, and one end of the soft rope is fixedly connected to the camera device.

[0018] The above-mentioned components achieve the following effects: the sealing plug can fit tightly against the inner wall of the charging port, providing good dustproof, waterproof, and foreign object intrusion prevention when the charging port is not in use. This avoids short circuits, poor contact, and other malfunctions caused by dust accumulation or liquid seepage into the charging port, ensuring the circuit safety and normal operation of the camera equipment. At the same time, one end of the soft rope is fixed to the camera equipment, connecting the sealing plug to the equipment to prevent the sealing plug from being lost, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0019] In this invention, a protective plate is installed to protect the camera. When the camera is idle or faces risks such as dust, rain, or impact from foreign objects, the threaded rod is rotated to separate it from the surface of the camera device. The protective plate is then pushed to slide along the groove of the fixing plate to the front of the camera. The threaded rod is then tightened to fix the protective plate, forming a reliable protective barrier. This effectively isolates the camera from external adverse factors, reduces the probability of lens contamination, scratches, and physical damage, and improves the practicality of the device.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a network camera device for controlling the multi-angle rotation of a pan-tilt unit, including a base 1, a support plate rotatably connected inside the base 1, a rotating frame 3 installed on one side of the support plate, a camera device 4 installed on one side of the rotating frame 3, a camera 5 installed inside the camera device 4, a control module installed inside the camera device 4, two fixing plates 6 fixedly connected to the surface of the camera device 4, a groove opened on one side of the fixing plate 6, a sliding block 7 slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove of the fixing plate 6, a protective plate 8 fixedly connected to one side of the sliding block 7, a connecting plate 9 fixedly connected to one side of the protective plate 8, a threaded rod 10 threadedly inserted into the connecting plate 9, one end of the threaded rod 10 abutting against the surface of the camera device 4. By setting up the protective plate 8, the camera 5 is protected. When the camera 5 is idle or faces risks such as dust, rain, or impact from foreign objects, the threaded rod 10 is rotated to separate it from the surface of the camera device 4, pushing the protective plate 8 to slide along the groove of the fixing plate 6 to the front of the camera 5. Then, the threaded rod 10 is tightened to fix the protective plate 8, forming a reliable protective barrier. This effectively isolates the camera 5 from external adverse factors, reduces the probability of lens contamination, scratches, and physical damage, and improves the practicality of the device. One end of the threaded rod 10 is fixedly connected to the abutment plate 11, and one side of the abutment plate 11 abuts against the camera device 4. By setting up the abutment plate 11, the contact area between the threaded rod 10 and the camera device 4 is increased, improving the practicality of the device. A ball bearing 17 is rotatably connected inside the sliding block 7, and the ball bearing 17 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove of the fixing plate 6. By setting up the ball bearing 17, the sliding block 7 can slide in the groove of the fixing plate 6, improving the convenience of the device. An operating handle 12 is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective plate 8, and the surface of the operating handle 12 is provided with anti-slip protrusions. By setting up the operating handle 12, it is convenient for staff to operate the protective plate 8, which improves the practicality of the device. The surface of the camera device 4 is covered with a protective cover 13, which is an elastic protective cover 13. The elastic protective cover 13, which is covered with the surface of the camera device 4, can fit tightly to the surface of the camera device 4 due to the flexibility and elastic deformation capability of its own material. When the device is subjected to external force collision, drop or other impact, the elastic protective cover 13 can effectively absorb and disperse the impact force, preventing the camera 5 from being damaged by rigid collision. The bottom surface of the base 1 is fixedly connected to an anti-slip pad 14, and the surface of the anti-slip pad 14 is provided with anti-slip grooves. The anti-slip pad 14 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base 1 and the anti-slip groove opened on the surface can significantly enhance the stability of the network camera device, increase the friction between the device and the mounting surface, prevent the camera from sliding or shifting due to external forces during use, and improve the practicality of the device. A charging port is installed on one side of the camera device 4. A sealing plug 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the charging port of the camera device 4. A soft rope 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the sealing plug 15, and one end of the soft rope 16 is fixedly connected to the camera device 4.The sealing plug 15 can fit tightly against the inner wall of the charging port, providing good dustproof, waterproof, and foreign object intrusion prevention when the charging port is not in use. This avoids short circuits, poor contact, and other malfunctions caused by dust accumulation or liquid seepage into the charging port, ensuring the circuit safety and normal operation of the camera equipment 4. At the same time, one end of the soft rope 16 is fixed to the camera equipment 4, connecting the sealing plug 15 to the equipment and preventing the sealing plug 15 from being lost, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0027] In terms of working principle and protective function, when the camera 5 is idle or faces risks such as dust, rain, or impact from external objects, the operator rotates the threaded rod 10 to separate the abutment plate 11 at the end of the threaded rod 10 from the surface of the camera device 4, thus releasing the fixation of the protective plate 8. At this time, due to the rotating engagement of the ball bearing 17 connected in the sliding block 7 with the inner wall of the groove of the fixing plate 6, the friction is greatly reduced. The operator can easily push the protective plate 8 through the operating handle 12, allowing the protective plate 8 to slide along the groove of the fixing plate 6 to the front of the camera 5, forming a protective barrier. Subsequently, the threaded rod 10 is tightened, and the contact area with the camera device 4 is increased through the abutment plate 11, firmly fixing the protective plate 8 and isolating the camera 5 from external adverse factors. At the same time, the elastic protective sleeve 13 on the surface of the camera device 4, with its own flexibility and elastic deformation capability, absorbs and disperses the impact force when the device is subjected to external impact, preventing the camera 5 from being damaged by rigid collisions. Regarding installation stability, the device is installed via base 1. The anti-slip pad 14 on the bottom of base 1 and the anti-slip grooves on its surface are in close contact with the mounting surface. The high coefficient of friction of the rubber anti-slip pad 14 and the increased contact area of ​​the anti-slip grooves increase the friction between the device and the mounting surface, preventing the camera from sliding or shifting due to external forces during use and ensuring stability during multi-angle rotation and adjustment. For charging port protection, when the camera device 4 needs charging, pull the sealing plug 15, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the charging port. The soft rope 16 prevents the sealing plug 15 from being lost. After pulling it out of the charging port, charging can begin. After charging is complete, the sealing plug 15 is reinserted into the charging port. The sealing plug 15 fits tightly against the inner wall of the charging port, and its excellent sealing effectively prevents dust, moisture, and foreign objects from entering, avoiding short circuits, poor contact, and other malfunctions caused by external factors, thus ensuring the circuit safety and normal operation of the camera device 4.
