Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera installation technology, specifically to a smart camera installation component. Background Technology
[0002] Surveillance systems are among the most widely used security systems, and surveillance cameras are one of the main devices used in surveillance systems. These cameras are mounted on brackets at high positions to monitor and patrol the area, ensuring the safety of users' property and personal safety. Typically, existing AI cameras are directly fixed to the building ceiling with a mounting plate. When maintenance is needed, the screws must be removed first, and then the mounting plate and camera must be removed together. This installation method is not only inconvenient for disassembly, but also makes reinstallation in the original location difficult. To solve these problems, Chinese patent number CN218456486U discloses an AI camera that achieves quick installation and disassembly through a rotating connection of a first connector and a second connector. However, the inventors found that in actual use, the rear or lower end of the camera usually has connecting wires or network cables. Rotation can easily twist these wires into a spiral shape, potentially damaging the wires and interfaces, posing certain drawbacks. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model provides a smart camera mounting component.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A smart camera mounting assembly is provided to fix a smart camera to a reference plane, the mounting assembly including a mounting base disposed on the reference plane;
[0006] A limiting groove is provided on one side of the mounting base, and a limiting plate that can move along the opening direction of the limiting groove is provided in the limiting groove. The limiting plate can be fixed to the mounting base by a fastener.
[0007] The bottom of the limiting plate is fixedly connected to a connecting column, and the bottom end of the connecting column is movably connected to an installation component, which can be movably connected to the smart camera.
[0008] To facilitate the positioning of the limiting plate, one side of the limiting groove is open and the other side is closed.
[0009] To facilitate the movement of the connecting column along with the limiting plate, the bottom of the limiting groove is designed to be open, and the dimension of the opening along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate is not less than the cross-sectional width of the connecting column. The dimension of the opening at the bottom of the limiting groove along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate is consistent with the cross-sectional width of the connecting column.
[0010] To facilitate fixing the limiting plate, a fixing hole is provided at one end of the mounting base near the opening of the limiting groove, and a fastener passes through the fixing hole to fix the limiting plate to the mounting base.
[0011] To improve the stability of the limiting plate and better position it in the limiting groove, a positioning plate is provided on the side of the limiting plate near the closed end of the limiting groove, and a positioning groove adapted to the positioning plate is opened on the inner side of the closed end of the limiting groove.
[0012] To ensure the stability of the limiting plate, the dimension of the positioning plate along the vertical movement direction is 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the dimension of the limiting plate along that direction.
[0013] The specific structure of the mounting component is as follows: the mounting component includes a protective cover for mounting the smart camera, and the bottom end of the connecting column is hinged to the upper end of the protective cover through a hinge.
[0014] The specific structure of the hinge is as follows: the hinge includes a mounting block installed at the bottom of the connecting column, a U-shaped seat is provided at the upper end of the protective cover, the mounting block is installed in the U-shaped seat and fixed through by fastening bolts.
[0015] To facilitate the overall fixing of the mounting components to the ceiling or other locations, mounting plates are provided on both sides of the mounting base along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate, which can be fixed to the reference plane.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model is a smart camera mounting component. Through the setting of the mounting parts and the cooperation of the mounting block and the U-shaped seat, the illumination angle of the smart camera can be adjusted. At this time, the angle of the smart camera can be fixed by pressing the mounting block with the fastening bolts. By inserting the limiting plate into the limiting groove, the smart camera can be initially limited. By inserting the positioning plate into the positioning groove inside the left side of the limiting groove, the limiting plate can be better positioned in the limiting groove. By inserting the mounting base and the limiting plate into the fixing parts, the limiting plate can be more stably positioned in the limiting groove. At this time, the position of the smart camera is better limited. Moreover, during disassembly and assembly, only the fixing parts need to be removed to slide the limiting plate out of the limiting groove and drive the smart camera to be disassembled, avoiding the situation of damaging the connecting wires during rotation disassembly.

[0024] Exemplary embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] Example
[0026] As mentioned in the background section, existing smart cameras 1 are typically fixed directly to a reference plane such as the ceiling using a mounting plate 11 during installation. Disassembly requires unscrewing multiple screws and then removing the mounting plate 11 and the smart camera 1 together. This is inconvenient for disassembly and requires repositioning for reinstallation. While existing patents connect the smart camera 1 and the mounting plate 11 using a threaded connection, the inventors found that after tightening the threads, the beam direction of the smart camera 1 sometimes does not align with the desired direction. Furthermore, rotating the camera during disassembly can easily damage electrical wires or network cables. Therefore, the inventors have made improvements and innovations based on existing technology, designing a new type of mounting component that overcomes the above problems. The following is a detailed explanation with reference to the illustrations.
[0027] In this embodiment, a smart camera 1 mounting assembly is disclosed, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 The system can fix the smart camera 1 to a reference plane, which can be a ceiling or other similar surface. The mounting assembly includes a mounting base 2 fixed to the reference plane. Mounting plates 11 are fixedly connected to the mounting base 2 at both the front and back. Here, "front and back" refers to the mounting plates 11 being provided on both sides of the mounting base 2 along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate 4, as described below. The mounting base 2 and the mounting plates 11 are an integral structure. Mounting holes 12 are provided on both sides of the mounting plates 11, and the mounting holes 12 are used in conjunction with expansion bolts to install the camera on the ceiling or other similar surfaces of the building.
[0028] Based on the above structure, a limiting groove 3 is provided on one side of the mounting base 2. In order to facilitate the limiting plate 4, one side of the limiting groove 3 is open and the other side is closed. As shown in the figure, the right end of the limiting groove 34 is open and the left end is closed. The limiting plate 4 is movably arranged along the direction of the limiting groove 3. In this embodiment, the size of the limiting plate 4 is the same as the size of the limiting groove 3, so that the right wall of the limiting plate 4 and the right wall of the mounting base 2 are located on the same vertical plane. By inserting the limiting plate 4 into the limiting groove 3, the smart camera 1 can be initially limited.
[0029] Furthermore, the limiting plate 4 can be fixed to the mounting base 2 by the fixing member 5. In order to facilitate the fixing of the limiting plate 4, a fixing hole 8 is provided at one end of the mounting base 2 near the opening of the limiting groove 3, and the fixing member 5 passes through the fixing hole 8 to fix the limiting plate 4 to the mounting base 2. At the same position, a corresponding matching channel is provided at the limiting plate 4. In this embodiment, the fixing member 5 is a pin. By inserting the pin into the channel of the limiting plate 4 along the fixing hole 8, the limiting plate 4 can be more stably positioned in the limiting groove 3, which facilitates the fixing and disassembly of the limiting plate 4.
[0030] Secondly, combining Figure 3 In order to better position the limiting plate 4 in the limiting groove 3, a positioning plate 9 is provided on the side of the limiting plate 4 near the closed end of the limiting groove 3, and a positioning groove 10 adapted to the positioning plate 9 is opened on the inner side of the closed end of the limiting groove 3. The dimension of the positioning plate 9 along the vertical moving direction is 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the dimension of the limiting plate 4 along the same direction. When the limiting plate 4 is inserted into the limiting groove 3, the positioning plate 9 enters the positioning groove 10, which facilitates the positioning of the limiting plate 4 and improves its stability.
[0031] Based on the above structure, to facilitate the installation of the smart camera 1, a connecting post 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting plate 4, and a mounting component 7 is movably connected to the bottom end of the connecting post 6 for movably installing the smart camera 1. The mounting component 7 includes a protective cover 71 for mounting the smart camera 1. The smart camera 1 is mounted on the bottom of the protective cover 71, and the two can be installed with bolts to protect the lens from rain and other intrusions. The bottom end of the connecting post 6 is hinged to the upper end of the protective cover 71 via a hinge, which facilitates adjustment of the illumination angle of the smart camera 1. Specifically... The hinge includes a mounting block 72 installed at the bottom of the connecting column 6. A U-shaped seat 73 is provided at the upper end of the protective cover 71. The mounting block 72 is installed inside the U-shaped seat 73 and is fixed by a fastening bolt 74. The mounting block 72 is installed on the inner side of the U-shaped seat 73 through the cooperation of a rotating shaft and a bearing. The fastening bolt 74 presses against the front wall of the mounting block 72. The angle of illumination of the smart camera 1 can be adjusted by the cooperation of the mounting block 72 and the U-shaped seat 73. At this time, the angle of the smart camera 1 can be positioned by pressing the mounting block 72 with the fastening bolt 74.
[0032] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the movement of the connecting post 6 along with the limiting plate 4, the bottom of the limiting groove 3 is set to be open, and the size of the opening along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate 4 is not less than the cross-sectional width of the connecting post 6. Specifically, the size of the opening at the bottom of the limiting groove 3 along the sliding direction perpendicular to the limiting plate 4 is consistent with the cross-sectional width of the connecting post 6, so that when the limiting plate 4 slides into the limiting groove 3, the connecting post 6 connected at the bottom can slide into the opening.
[0033] Working principle: When installing the smart camera 1, the limiting plate 4 is inserted into the limiting groove 3, and the positioning plate 9 is inserted into the positioning groove 10, which limits the limiting plate 4 in the limiting groove 3. The fixing piece 5 passes through the mounting hole 12 of the mounting base 2 and is inserted into the limiting plate 4, which better positions the limiting plate 4 in the limiting groove 3. At this time, the position of the smart camera 1 is limited and fixed. By rotating the fastening bolt 74, the fastening bolt 74 is separated from the mounting block 72, and the illumination angle of the smart camera 1 can be adjusted. After the angle is adjusted, the fastening bolt 74 is tightened, so that the fastening bolt 74 is pressed on the mounting block 72, which can position the angle of the smart camera 1.
