Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of subway monitoring, and in particular to a mobile camera used for subway monitoring. Background Technology
[0002] During subway operation, comprehensive and multi-faceted intelligent monitoring systems play an irreplaceable and crucial role in ensuring passenger safety and maintaining the order of rail transit operations. As an important component of urban public transportation, the subway monitoring system, through functional modules such as real-time video monitoring, passenger flow statistics and analysis, and abnormal behavior identification, can promptly detect and address various safety hazards, effectively preventing and responding to emergencies. Simultaneously, the system provides data support for operational scheduling, ensuring train punctuality and providing crucial evidence for post-incident investigations, making it a vital technological support for building a safe and intelligent subway system.
[0003] In existing subway surveillance systems, most cameras are fixed installations, with limited flexibility in position and angle adjustment, resulting in a restricted monitoring range and difficulty in covering blind spots such as carriage connections and platform corners. Furthermore, traditional cameras have small turning angles and fixed movement speeds, making it difficult to quickly adapt to changing scenarios during peak hours or emergencies, leading to untimely and incomplete monitoring. To address these technical issues, this application proposes a mobile camera for subway surveillance. Utility Model Content

[0023] 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.
[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a mobile camera for subway monitoring, comprising a track 1 and a moving block 8. The track 1 has a track groove 10 inside, with ball bearings 11 and circular locking posts 12 inside. A right connecting post 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the right circular locking post 12, and a left connecting post 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the left circular locking post 12. A support plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the left connecting post 9, and a movable component is provided at the top of the support plate 7. A steering component is provided at the bottom of the right connecting post 2. A rack 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the track 1. The rack 15 is meshed with a gear 16, and the gear 16 is connected to a drive shaft via a key 17. A motor 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive shaft. The left side of the motor 18 is fixedly connected to the interior of the moving block 8. A locking block 3 and a camera connecting post 4 are fixedly connected to the right side of the moving block 8. The locking block 3 is located behind the camera connecting post 4, and a camera body 5 is provided at the other end of the camera connecting post 4. The drive motor 18 engages with the gear 16 via the key 17, causing the gear 16 to move along the rack 15. The motor 18 is a variable frequency motor, which can adjust the speed to control the movement speed of the entire device. The rack 15 is laid along the track 1, which needs to be designed and fixed to the ceiling.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The movable component includes a rotating shaft 14, with a crank 6 mounted on its outer wall and a bottom fixing post 13 at the left end of the crank 6. The rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the support plate 7, the crank 6, and the bottom fixing post 13. The rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the crank 6, the crank 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom fixing post 13, and the bottom fixing post 13 is fixedly connected to the moving block 8. The steering component includes a rotating body 20, with a ball inside. The bottom of the right connecting post 2 is fixedly connected to a circular locking post 12, and a locking block 3 is mounted on the outer wall of the circular locking post 12. A circular locking groove is formed on the top side of the locking block 3, and the circular locking post 12 is both rotatably and slidably connected to the circular locking groove. The rotating body 20 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the right connecting post 2. The moving block 8 is fixed to the motor 18. The right end of the moving block 8 can be turned by the steering device. There is a gap between the moving block 8 and the track 1. The card block 3 and the rotating body 20 fixedly connected to the right end of the moving block 8 can rotate. The round card post 12 rotatably connected inside the card block 3 will move along the moving trajectory of the right connecting post 2. The trajectory of the right connecting post 2 is affected by the round card post 12 fixedly connected to its top and the rolling (11) of its left end inside. The ball 11 and the round card post 12 at its top will move along the track groove 10. The moving component at the bottom of the left end of the moving block 8 is fixed along the track groove 10 due to the movement of the left connecting post 9 and the support plate 7. Therefore, the movement of the crank 6 can make the moving block 8 pass through the corner, improve its flexibility, and thus control the movement direction and trajectory of the moving block 8.
[0026] Working principle: The drive motor 18 engages with the gear 16 via the key 17, causing the gear 16 to move along the rack 15. The motor 18 is a variable frequency motor, allowing for speed adjustment to control the overall movement speed of the device. The rack 15 is laid along the track 1, which needs to be designed and fixed to the ceiling. The moving block 8 is fixed to the motor 18. The right end of the moving block 8 can be steered via a steering device. There is a gap between the moving block 8 and the track 1. The locking block 3, which is fixedly connected to the right end of the moving block 8, can rotate with the rotating body 20. The internal rotating connecting round pin 12 moves along the trajectory of the right connecting pin 2. The trajectory of the right connecting pin 2 is affected by the round pin 12 fixedly connected to its top and the rolling (11) of its left end inside. The ball 11 and the round pin 12 at its top will move along the trajectory groove 10. The movable component at the bottom of the left end of the moving block 8 is fixed along the trajectory groove 10 due to the movement of the left connecting pin 9 and the support plate 7. Therefore, the movement of the crank 6 allows the moving block 8 to pass through the corner, improving its flexibility and thus controlling the movement direction and trajectory of the moving block 8. The camera body 5 has functions such as night vision, backup battery, and omnidirectional rotation.
[0027] 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.
