Detailed Implementation

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0028] See Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model proposes a quick-release coaxial interface camera, including a camera body 1. The camera body 1 can be a mature product, mainly used in artificial intelligence, automotive, robotics and other application devices to achieve image information acquisition. Specific image information processing is performed by the processor in the application device. A quick-release structure 2 is installed on the camera body 1 to enable quick release of the camera body 1 from the application device, facilitating maintenance of the camera body 1 after a period of use.

[0029] The quick-release structure 2 includes a fixing block 21, a handle 22, and a limiting block 262. The fixing block 21 is installed on the camera body 1 and has insertion holes 23 at both ends. Both ends of the handle 22 are rotatably mounted with claws 24, and each claw 24 has a limiting buckle 25 that engages with the insertion hole 23. The handle 22 has guide blocks 26 embedded on the two claws 24 respectively, and the handle 22 is used to install on the application device. That is, in the quick-release structure 2, the fixing block 21 is first fixedly installed on the camera body 1, and the handle 22 is fixedly installed on the application device. By rotating the two claws 24, the limiting buckles 25 are aligned with the insertion holes 23 and then pressed to achieve the insertion engagement. The guide blocks 26 abut against the two claws to ensure that the insertion engagement between the limiting buckles 25 and the insertion holes 23 will not be loosened due to vibration or other reasons. When it is necessary to quickly disassemble the camera body 1, press the two claws 24 to make the limiting buckle 25 disengage from the insertion hole 23, and then rotate the claws 24 to open, so that the camera body 1 can be quickly disassembled and assembled.

[0030] Specifically, the camera body 1 includes an upper cover 11 and a lower cover 12. A PCBA board 13 and a smart sensor 14 integrated on the PCBA board 13 are installed inside the upper cover 11. An ISP debugging board 15 connected to the PCBA board 13 is also installed inside the upper cover 11. A mounting hole 16 is provided on the upper cover 11, and a lens 17 connected to the PCBA board 13 is installed in the mounting hole 16. A coaxial interface harness 18 is installed on the lower cover 12 and is connected to the ISP debugging board 15. By integrating the smart sensor 14 on the PCBA board 13, imaging and micro-information processing functions are integrated into the camera module, enabling the processed data to be directly transmitted and applied. Furthermore, some components in the PCBA board 13 can be eliminated, further reducing the size of the PCBA board 13 and minimizing internal space. The smart sensor 14 is a mature product with imaging and information processing functions, and is connected to the application device via the coaxial interface harness 18 to achieve image information transmission.

[0031] Meanwhile, in application scenarios, dust and impurities in the external environment may cause scratches on the lens 17, affecting the imaging effect. Specifically, the upper cover 11 is provided with an upwardly protruding connecting part 19, which has a threaded part. A protective cover 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded part, and a glass cover 4 is integrated on the protective cover 3. The protective cover 3 protects the internal lens 17, and the glass cover 4 has a spherical structure to meet the imaging range. The threaded connection facilitates the disassembly or installation of the protective cover 3, thus allowing the protective cover 3 to be integrated into the existing camera body 1.

[0032] Meanwhile, in order to prevent slippage when rotating the protective cover 3, several anti-slip teeth 5 are provided on the protective cover 3 evenly distributed in the circumferential direction. The anti-slip teeth 5 are used to prevent slippage when rotating.

[0033] Specifically, the handle 22 is provided with a mounting groove 221 for mounting the guide block 26. The mounting groove 221 includes a first positioning groove 222 and a second positioning groove 223 located on both sides of the first positioning groove 222 and communicating with it. The guide block 26 is provided with a positioning block 261 installed in the first positioning groove 222 and limiting blocks 262 located on both sides of the positioning block 261. The limiting blocks 262 are installed in the second positioning groove 223. The first positioning groove 222 and the second positioning groove 223 limit the installation of the entire guide block 26 and limit the positioning block 261 and the limiting block 262 respectively. When subjected to compression, the limiting part has a certain deformation function.

[0034] Meanwhile, the limiting block 262 is provided with a swinging part 263 extending toward the side of the fixed block 21. The fixed block 21 is provided with a swinging groove 27 for inserting the swinging part 263. After the pressure is applied by the claw 24, a pushing force is generated on the limiting block 262, allowing the swinging part 263 to move in the swinging groove 27, thereby satisfying the requirement that the limiting buckle 25 on the claw 24 can be withdrawn from the insertion hole 23.

[0035] Meanwhile, in order to ensure the sealing effect of the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 and to protect the internal components, a sealing protrusion 110 is provided on the upper cover 11, and a first sealing groove 111 and a first sealing ring 112 provided in the first sealing groove 111 are provided on the lower cover 12. The sealing protrusion 110 extends into the first sealing groove 111 to press the first sealing ring 112, thereby achieving the sealing effect after the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 are locked.

[0036] Specifically, an alignment notch 113 is provided at one corner of the upper cover 11, and an alignment boss 114 is provided at one corner of the lower cover 12 to cooperate with the alignment notch 113. By cooperating with the alignment notch 113, the alignment boss 114 can play a foolproof role when the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 are installed, and avoid the internal imaging being affected by incorrect installation angle.

[0037] The electronic devices proposed in this embodiment all adopt existing technologies, and the information processing-related circuit parts can also use mature technologies. This embodiment mainly describes and protects the quick-release structure 2 and the protective structure constituting the camera body 1.
