Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of camera technology, and in particular relates to a sliding cover stop structure based on a camera. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry and the increasing demand for personalization, many car roof cameras are equipped with sliding covers that can be moved to protect privacy.

[0003] The space for the ceiling camera is limited, and it is generally only 3-4mm larger than the camera body. According to the traditional design, if a spring-loaded stop pin is to be added to achieve a sense of movement, the opening structure needs to be exposed. However, it is difficult to make the spring and stop pin integrated with the sliding cover due to space constraints. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a sliding cover mechanism based on a camera, thus solving the problem of insufficient space in the camera sliding cover making it difficult to achieve a tactile feedback mechanism. The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A sliding cover stop structure based on a camera includes an outer cover, which includes an inner shell and an outer shell. The outer cover has a camera through hole for exposing the camera. A sandwich layer is formed between the inner shell and the outer shell. A sliding cover is slidably disposed in the sandwich layer. The sliding cover covers or exposes the camera through hole during sliding. A strip-shaped through hole is provided between the front and rear end faces of the sliding cover. A wall plate is formed between the strip-shaped through hole and the bottom of the sliding cover. The wall plate includes an arc-shaped structure protruding towards the bottom. The sandwich layer includes an upper end face and a lower end face for the sliding cover to contact and slide. A plurality of arc-shaped grooves are provided on the lower end face for the arc-shaped structure to be accommodated. The two sides of each arc-shaped groove are higher than the middle. During the process of the arc-shaped structure sliding into the arc-shaped groove, the arc-shaped structure is squeezed and deformed towards the strip-shaped through hole when it contacts the two sides of the arc-shaped groove.

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, a strip-shaped through hole is set on the sliding cover to form a thin-walled structure with the wall plate at the bottom of the sliding cover. Through the cooperation of the arc-shaped structure and arc-shaped groove on the wall plate, when sliding in and out, the side of the arc-shaped groove squeezes the arc-shaped structure, causing the wall plate to deform. After the arc-shaped structure is fully inserted into the arc-shaped groove, the concave part of the arc-shaped groove can accommodate the protruding part of the arc-shaped structure. At this time, the deformation pressure of the wall plate is released and reset. To continue sliding, a force to overcome the deformation of the wall plate must be applied again. Thus, the cooperation of the arc-shaped structure and the arc-shaped groove realizes the sense of segmentation and realizes the positioning and constraint of the sliding cover in the interlayer, preventing the sliding cover from automatically sliding and blocking the camera.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that the wall panel and the sliding cover are integrally formed.

[0007] With the above-mentioned further configuration, the wall panel and sliding cover, which serve as the gear shift structure, are integrated into one piece. This not only replaces the conventional spring gear shift pin, saving internal space, but also reduces the connection structure to reduce the probability of failure. At the same time, the sliding cover can be injection molded as a single piece, saving costs.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that two arc-shaped grooves are provided on the lower end surface, and the wall panel is in an undeformed state when the arc-shaped structure is located between the two arc-shaped grooves.

[0009] With the above-mentioned further configuration, two arc-shaped grooves are provided for the arc-shaped structure to cooperate with, so that the camera sliding cover has two open or closed positions, realizing two states of normally open or normally closed. At the same time, the arc-shaped structure is located between the two arc-shaped grooves, the wall panel remains unchanged and does not compress the upper and lower end faces of the interlayer, so that the sliding cover experiences less resistance and slides more smoothly.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that a handrail protrudes from the front end surface of the sliding cover, and a window is provided on the outer shell. The handrail protrudes into the window, and when the handrail is located on the left and right sides of the window, the arc-shaped structure is located in two arc-shaped grooves.

[0011] With the above-mentioned further design, the position of the armrest exposed on the outer shell can be visually determined whether it has been pushed into the arc-shaped groove.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that a track bar protrudes from the rear end face of the interlayer, the track bar extends along the sliding direction of the sliding cover, and a track groove is formed on the rear end face of the sliding cover, the track groove being placed on the track bar for sliding.

[0013] With the above-mentioned further configuration, the sliding path and direction of the sliding cover are constrained by the cooperation of the track strip and track groove.

[0014] A further feature of this invention is that the front end face of the sliding cover, the upper and lower end faces of the sliding cover, and the bottom of the track groove are all uniformly provided with arc-shaped protrusions.

[0015] With the above-mentioned further design, the arc-shaped protrusion reduces the contact area between the sliding cover and the outer and inner shells, resulting in less resistance during sliding, smoother sliding, less wear, and increased service life.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is that an arc-shaped protrusion is provided on the left side wall of the interlayer or the left end face of the sliding cover, and on the right side wall of the interlayer or the right end face of the sliding cover.

[0017] Furthermore, by adopting the above-mentioned additional design, an arc-shaped protrusion is provided at this location to prevent the side end face of the sliding cover from colliding with the entire side wall of the interlayer, thus reducing the probability of damage caused by impact by turning the surface into a point collision.

[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a camera-based sliding cover structure includes an outer cover 1, which comprises an inner shell and an outer shell. The outer cover 1 has a camera through-hole 13 for exposing the camera. A sandwich layer 2 is formed between the inner shell and the outer shell. A sliding cover 3 is slidably disposed within the sandwich layer 2. The sliding cover 3 either covers or exposes the camera through-hole 13 during sliding. A strip-shaped through-hole 4 is provided between the front and rear end faces of the sliding cover 3, and the strip-shaped through-hole 4 is arranged along the sliding direction of the sliding cover 3. A thin-walled wall plate 5 is formed between the strip-shaped through hole 4 and the bottom of the sliding cover 3. The wall plate 5 and the sliding cover 3 are integrally formed. The wall panel 5 includes an arc-shaped structure 6 protruding towards the bottom. The interlayer 2 includes an upper end surface 21 and a lower end surface 22 for the sliding cover 3 to contact and slide. The lower end surface 22 is provided with two arc-shaped grooves 7 for the arc-shaped structure 6 to accommodate. The two sides of each arc-shaped groove 7 are higher than the middle. During the process of the arc-shaped structure 6 sliding into the arc-shaped groove 7, the arc-shaped structure 6 is squeezed and deformed towards the strip-shaped through hole 4 when it contacts the two sides of the arc-shaped groove 7. When the arc-shaped structure 6 is engaged with the two arc-shaped grooves 7 respectively, the sliding cover 3 is in an open or closed state respectively. In this embodiment, the lower end face 22 located between the two arc-shaped grooves 7 is lower than the other side of the corresponding arc-shaped groove 7. When the arc-shaped structure 6 is located between the two arc-shaped grooves 7, the wall panel 5 is in an undeformed state. The wall panel 5 is in its original state and does not deform, and does not compress the upper and lower end faces of the interlayer 2, so that the sliding cover 3 experiences less resistance and slides more smoothly. However, when it is located on the other side of the corresponding arc-shaped groove 7, the arc-shaped structure 6 is compressed, causing the wall panel 5 to deform, increasing the sliding resistance, and making the user realize that it has been pushed too far.

[0025] The sliding cover 3 has a protruding armrest 33 on its front end surface, and the outer shell has a window 14. The armrest 33 protrudes into the window 14. When the armrest 33 is on the left and right sides of the window 14, the arc-shaped structure 6 is in two arc-shaped grooves 7. Thus, by observing the position of the armrest 33 exposed on the outer shell, it is possible to judge whether it has been pushed into the arc-shaped groove 7 from a distance without having to manually push it to feel the tactile feedback of the gear position to determine whether it has slid into place.

[0026] In this embodiment, a track bar 23 protrudes from the rear end face 24 of the interlayer 2. The track bar 23 extends along the sliding direction of the sliding cover 3. A track groove 31 is provided on the rear end face of the sliding cover 3. The track groove 31 slides on the track bar 23. Through the cooperation of the track bar 23 and the track groove 31, the sliding path and direction of the sliding cover 3 are constrained. It should be noted that only the track bar 23 and track groove 31 are needed to guide the sliding path. The track groove is set on the rear section 24 of the interlayer 2 and the track bar is protruded on the sliding cover 3 to achieve the same effect. At the same time, multiple sets of track bars 23 and track groove 31 can also be set to cooperate.

[0027] In this embodiment, the front end face of the sliding cover 3, the upper and lower end faces of the sliding cover 3, and the bottom of the track groove 31 are all uniformly provided with arc-shaped protrusions 32. The provision of these arc-shaped protrusions 32 reduces the contact area between the sliding cover 3 and the outer and inner shells, reduces the resistance encountered during sliding, makes the sliding smoother, reduces wear, and increases the service life.

[0028] Furthermore, an arc-shaped protrusion 32 is also provided on the left side wall of the interlayer 2 or the left end face of the sliding cover 3 and the right side wall of the interlayer 2 or the right end face of the sliding cover 3. In this embodiment, the arc-shaped protrusion 32 is provided on the right side wall of the interlayer 2 and the left end face of the sliding cover 3. The arc-shaped protrusion 32 is provided here to prevent the side end face of the sliding cover 3 from colliding with the side wall of the interlayer 2 as a whole, and the collision of the surface into a point reduces the probability of damage caused by the impact.

[0029] Specifically, by setting a strip-shaped through hole 4 on the sliding cover 3 to form a thin-walled structure on the wall plate 5 at the bottom of the sliding cover 3, and through the cooperation of the arc-shaped structure 6 and the arc-shaped groove 7 on the wall plate 5, when sliding in and out, the side of the arc-shaped groove 7 squeezes the arc-shaped structure 6, causing the wall plate 5 to deform. After the arc-shaped structure 6 is fully inserted into the arc-shaped groove 7, the concave part of the arc-shaped groove 7 can accommodate the protruding part of the arc-shaped structure 6. At this time, the deformation pressure of the wall plate 5 is released and reset. If sliding continues, the force to overcome the deformation of the wall plate 5 must be applied again. Thus, the cooperation of the arc-shaped structure 6 and the arc-shaped groove 7 realizes the sense of segmentation and realizes the positioning and constraint of the sliding cover 3 in the interlayer 2, preventing the sliding cover 3 from automatically sliding and blocking the camera.
