[0023] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] Figures 1-3 As an embodiment of this utility model, the problem addressed by this application is that, in specific modes such as high-speed driving and sentry mode, the applicant believes that the 360-degree rotation of the camera will cause blurring of the recorded image and will also record a large number of invalid images, wasting storage space and hindering the rapid location of key event targets. Therefore, this application proposes an adjustable mounting base 2 for a vehicle-mounted camera to assist in angle adjustment and angle limiting of the vehicle-mounted camera. In this solution, by setting a split mounting base 2 under the vehicle-mounted camera, the inner seat 3 and the outer seat 4 can reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle-mounted camera rotation in sentry mode. By adjusting the angle of the inner seat 3 through the outer seat 4, the specific observation angle of the vehicle-mounted camera in a stationary state can be significantly changed. On the other hand, by using the two adjustable states of the rotation angle of the vehicle-mounted camera through the inner seat 3, the energy consumption under different needs can be effectively reduced.

[0026] An adjustable mounting base 2 for a vehicle-mounted camera includes a camera body 1. The mounting base 2 is located at the lower end of the camera body 1. The mounting base 2 includes an inner seat 3 and an outer seat 4. An adhesive layer is installed on the bottom of the outer seat 4. The inner seat 3 rotates inside the outer seat 4 and is connected to the camera body 1. The inner seat 3 includes a mounting cover 31 and a fastening post 32 mounted on the mounting cover 31. The mounting cover 31 is T-shaped and forms a control cavity 33 for the camera body 1 at its upper end. A driver for controlling the horizontal turning angle of the camera body 1 is installed in the control cavity 33. The driver is specifically a drive motor connected to the camera body 1. The fastening post 32 is mounted on the side wall of the mounting cover 31. The outer seat 4 is disc-shaped. The inner seat 3 is placed inside the operating cavity, and the outer seat 4 has several fastening slots 41 that are adapted to the fastening posts 32. The fastening slots 41 are elastically installed with structural cover plates 42. After parking, the inner seat 3 is lifted from the outer seat 4, and the fastening posts 32 of the inner seat 3 are inserted into the fastening slots 41 of the outer seat 4 according to the direction to be monitored. This allows the camera body 1 to monitor the vehicle's surrounding environment at this angle while the camera body 1 is stationary. Moreover, the fastening slots 41 and fastening posts 32 allow the inner seat 3 to be directly connected to the outer seat 4, and the outer seat 4 can directly limit the inner seat 3, reducing the dependence on the drive structure and reducing operating costs.

[0027] The camera body 1 extends into the structure inside the mounting cover 31 and has an annular groove a5 and an annular groove b6. The length of the annular groove a5 is half the circumference of the camera body 1, and the length of the annular groove b6 is equal to the circumference of the camera body 1. The control cavity 33 has a strip groove, and a control block 34 that slides in the strip groove a or strip groove b is installed in the strip groove. The annular groove a and the annular groove b6 have through openings that communicate with each other. Mounting grooves 35 are provided on both the left and right sides of the strip groove. The left and right sides of the control block 34 have snap-fit ​​covers that are placed in the mounting grooves 35 to limit the control block 34. In use, the control block 34 slides up or down to change its position, thereby switching between the annular groove a and the annular groove b6. The structure limits the rotation angle of the camera according to the length of the annular groove a and the annular groove b6. After switching, the snap-fit ​​covers are pressed into the mounting grooves 35 to fix the control block 34.

[0028] The fastening groove 41 and the fastening post 32 are formed accordingly. A cover plate 42, which is also formed accordingly with the fastening post 32, is installed in the fastening groove 41. A guide plate 43 is provided at the end of the cover plate 42 away from the fastening post 32. A guide groove adapted to the guide plate 43 is opened in the fastening groove 41. A conical spring is installed at the bottom of the fastening groove 41 at the lower end of the cover plate 42. The height of the fastening post 32, the cover plate 42 and the conical spring are equal to the opening depth of the fastening groove 41. When the fastening post 32 presses down on the cover plate 42, the cover plate 42 moves down along the guide groove until the fastening post 32 is completely inserted into the fastening groove 41, and the inner seat 3 and the outer seat 4 are fixed.

[0029] The control method of this utility model is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.
