Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera device technology, and in particular to a camera device with tail wire protection function. Background Technology

[0002] A camera device is a device that captures images or videos through an optical system and a photosensitive element, and converts them into electrical or digital signals for recording, transmission, or display. Specifically, it can be defined as an electronic device that uses a lens to focus light, converts the light signals into electrical signals through an image sensor (such as CCD or CMOS), and then processes the signals through signal processing circuits and a storage medium to achieve still image capture or dynamic video recording. Structurally, a camera device typically includes a lens system, a photosensitive element, a signal processing unit, a storage module, control circuitry, and a housing. These components work together to acquire and process images.

[0003] Current camera devices have significant shortcomings in protecting against cable movement. Traditional protection methods (such as simple binding) are extremely ineffective in addressing the issue of cable movement during camera rotation. Because the cable dynamically stretches with the lens during camera rotation, traditional binding methods cannot accommodate the cable's displacement. Furthermore, most of the cable's weight is concentrated at the connection point with the camera, easily leading to stress concentration at the fixing point. Over time, this can result in insulation cracking and internal wire breakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.

[0005] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to provide a camera device with tail wire protection function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this utility model provides a camera device with tail wire protection function, including a camera body and a supporting square tube. An adjusting bracket is fixedly installed between the camera body and the supporting square tube. Guide plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the camera body by bolts. A T-shaped sliding plate is slidably connected inside each guide plate. A protective shell is fixedly connected between two T-shaped sliding plates. The protective shell is fixedly connected to the camera body by bolts. The protective shell is located above the camera body. A back wire is fixedly connected to the back of the camera body. The end of the back wire away from the camera body is located inside the supporting square tube. A corrugated flexible tube is fixedly installed on the top surface of the supporting square tube by bolts. The back wire is located inside the corrugated flexible tube. A frame is fixedly connected to the end of the corrugated flexible tube away from the supporting square tube. The side of the frame away from the corrugated flexible tube is in contact with the camera body. A first arc-shaped positioning sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the bottom of the frame. A second arc-shaped positioning sleeve is rotatably connected to the top of the threaded rod through a bearing. The inner walls of both the first and second arc-shaped positioning sleeves are in contact with the outer surface of the back wire.

[0007] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the back of the camera body by bolts. The top of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the protective shell, and a locking frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate. Springs are fixedly connected to both sides of the locking frame, and a locking pin is fixedly connected to the end of each spring away from the locking frame. Both locking pins pass through the locking frame and engage with the frame.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the inner walls of both the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve are fixedly connected with a plurality of linear arrays of arc-shaped rubber pads.

[0009] Preferably, one side of the guide plate is provided with a T-shaped groove, and the T-shaped slide plate is slidably connected to the guide plate through the T-shaped groove.

[0010] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the bottom surface of the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve is fixedly connected to two symmetrically arranged guide rods, and both guide rods are slidably connected to the frame.

[0011] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the top surface of the supporting square tube has a through hole, the back wire is located inside the through hole, and the back wire is inserted into the supporting square tube through the through hole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The combined design of the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve, the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve, and the corrugated flexible hose effectively solves the problem of stress concentration in the camera device's tail cable. The tail cable passes through the through-hole on the top surface of the supporting square tube and enters the tube, then is fitted into the corrugated flexible hose. The flexibility of the corrugated hose adapts to the displacement requirements of the tail cable. The first arc-shaped positioning sleeve and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve, which are adjusted by a threaded rod, can tightly fit the outer surface of the tail cable. By rotating the threaded rod, the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve rises, clamping the tail cable together with the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve, distributing the weight of the tail cable and preventing stress concentration at the connection point with the camera body. At the same time, the arc-shaped rubber pad on the inner wall increases friction and cushioning performance, further protecting the tail cable and preventing insulation layer cracking or core wire breakage due to long-term pulling, thus extending the tail cable's service life.

[0014] 2. The sliding connection structure between the protective shell and the T-shaped sliding plate provides flexible protection and tracking functionality for the camera body. The guide plates on both sides of the camera body slide in conjunction with the T-shaped sliding plate via T-shaped grooves, allowing the protective shell to move up and down along the camera body to adapt to different shooting angles. When the camera body rotates via the adjustable bracket, the protective shell moves synchronously under the guidance of the T-shaped sliding plate, avoiding the restriction of the camera's range of motion caused by a fixed protective structure. Furthermore, the cooperation of the connecting plate, locking frame, and spring, along with the locking pin engaging with the frame, securely connects the protective shell to the frame, ensuring that the protective shell will not loosen during tracking. This provides protection for the camera body and ensures that the tail cable remains within the protection range of the protective shell and corrugated hose during movement, improving the overall reliability of the camera device.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a camera device with tail wire protection function includes a camera body 1 and a supporting square tube 2. An adjusting bracket 3 is fixedly installed between the camera body 1 and the supporting square tube 2. Guide plates 4 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the camera body 1 by bolts. A T-shaped sliding plate 5 is slidably connected inside each guide plate 4. A protective shell 6 is fixedly connected between two T-shaped sliding plates 5. The protective shell 6 is fixedly connected to the camera body 1 by bolts and is located above the camera body 1. A back wire 7 is fixedly connected to the back of the camera body 1. The end of the back wire 7 away from the camera body 1 is... Inside the supporting square tube 2, a corrugated flexible tube 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the supporting square tube 2 by bolts. The back line 7 is located inside the corrugated flexible tube 8. A frame 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the corrugated flexible tube 8 away from the supporting square tube 2. The side of the frame 9 away from the corrugated flexible tube 8 is in contact with the camera body 1. A first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 9. A threaded rod 11 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the frame 9. A second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 is rotatably connected to the top of the threaded rod 11 through a bearing. The inner walls of the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 are in contact with the outer surface of the back line 7.

[0023] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a connecting plate 13 is fixedly installed on the back of the camera body 1 by bolts. The top of the connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 6, and the bottom of the connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the locking frame 14. Springs 15 are fixedly connected to both sides of the locking frame 14. A locking pin 16 is fixedly connected to the end of each spring 15 away from the locking frame 14. Both locking pins 16 pass through the locking frame 14 and engage with the frame 9. The connecting plate 13, locking frame 14, springs 15, and locking pins 16 on the back of the camera body 1 cooperate with each other to form a stable connection structure. The protective shell 6 is fixed to the top of the connecting plate 13, and the locking frame 14 at the bottom engages with the frame 9 by the springs 15 pushing the locking pins 16, so that the protective shell 6 and the frame 9 are tightly connected. This design can ensure that the protective shell 6 moves synchronously when the camera body 1 rotates, and can also ensure that it will not loosen or fall off during the movement, providing reliable protection for the camera body 1 and the tail cable 7. At the same time, the elasticity of the springs 15 can buffer the impact of external forces to a certain extent, improving the overall stability of the device.

[0024] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the inner walls of the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 are fixedly connected with a plurality of linear arrays of arc-shaped rubber pads 17. The arc-shaped rubber pads 17 on the inner walls of the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 effectively enhance the protection of the tail wire 7. The arc-shaped rubber pads 17 have good flexibility and friction. When the first and second arc-shaped positioning sleeves clamp the tail wire 7, the rubber pads 17 can closely fit the surface of the tail wire, avoiding rigid compression from damaging the insulation layer of the tail wire. At the same time, the rubber pads 17 can also provide buffering and stress dispersion when the tail wire 7 is subjected to force and tension, preventing the tail wire from breaking due to excessive local force, extending the service life of the tail wire, and ensuring the normal operation of the camera device.

[0025] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a T-shaped groove 18 is provided on one side of the guide plate 4, and the T-shaped slide plate 5 is slidably connected to the guide plate 4 through the T-shaped groove 18. The T-shaped groove 18 of the guide plate 4 and the T-shaped slide plate 5 are slidably connected, allowing the protective shell 6 to move flexibly. This structure allows the protective shell 6 to slide up and down along the camera body 1. When the camera changes its shooting angle through the adjusting bracket 3, the protective shell 6 can adjust its position accordingly, which neither restricts the range of motion of the camera nor prevents it from always covering the camera body 1, providing continuous protection. At the same time, the T-shaped structure increases the stability during sliding, preventing the protective shell 6 from shifting or shaking during movement.

[0026] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the bottom surface of the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to two symmetrically arranged guide rods 19. Both guide rods 19 are slidably connected to the frame. The guide rods 19 on the bottom surface of the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 are slidably connected to the frame, providing precise guidance for the raising and lowering of the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12. When the threaded rod 11 is rotated to adjust the position of the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12, the guide rods 19 can ensure its smooth raising and lowering, avoiding tilting or jamming, so that the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 can be accurately aligned with the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10, evenly clamping the tail wire 7, ensuring the fixing effect of the tail wire, and improving the reliability of tail wire protection.

[0027] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a through hole 20 is provided on the top surface of the supporting square tube 2. The back wire 7 is located inside the through hole 20 and is inserted into the supporting square tube 2 through the through hole 20. The through hole 20 on the top surface of the supporting square tube 2 provides a passage for the back wire 7, allowing it to smoothly enter the supporting square tube 2. The through hole 20 not only organizes the wiring layout of the back wire 7 but also provides a certain degree of protection for the back wire 7, preventing it from being exposed to the external environment and suffering damage such as scratches and pulls. At the same time, after the back wire 7 passes through the through hole 20 into the supporting square tube 2, it can be further fixed and protected by the structure of the supporting square tube 2, enhancing the tail wire protection function.

[0028] A camera device with tail wire protection function works on the following principle:

[0029] 1): The tail wire 7 passes through the through hole 20 on the top surface of the supporting square tube 2 and enters the tube, and is sleeved in the corrugated hose 8. The flexibility of the corrugated hose 8 is used to adapt to the displacement requirements of the tail wire 7.

[0030] 2): The first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 inside the frame 9 and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12, which is adjusted by the threaded rod 11, can fit tightly against the outer surface of the back line 7. By rotating the threaded rod 11, the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 is raised and clamps the back line 7 together with the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10, distributing the weight of the tail line and avoiding stress concentration at the connection of the camera body 1.

[0031] 3): The guide plates 4 on both sides of the camera body 1 slide with the T-shaped slide plate 5 through the T-shaped slide groove 18, so that the protective shell 6 can move up and down along the camera body 1 to adapt to shooting needs at different angles.

[0032] In summary, this camera device with tail wire protection effectively solves the problem of stress concentration in the tail wire through the combined design of the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve, the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve, and the corrugated hose. The back wire 7 passes through the through hole 20 on the top surface of the supporting square tube 2 and enters the tube, and is fitted into the corrugated hose 8. The flexibility of the corrugated hose 8 adapts to the displacement requirements of the tail wire 7. The first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10 and the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12, which are adjusted by the threaded rod 11, can fit tightly against the outer surface of the back wire 7. By rotating the threaded rod 11, the second arc-shaped positioning sleeve 12 rises and clamps the back wire 7 together with the first arc-shaped positioning sleeve 10, distributing the weight of the tail wire and preventing stress concentration at the connection point of the camera body 1. At the same time, the arc-shaped rubber pad 17 on the inner wall increases friction and cushioning performance, further protecting the back wire 7 and preventing insulation layer cracking or core wire breakage caused by long-term pulling, thus extending the service life of the tail wire. The sliding connection structure between the protective shell and the T-shaped sliding plate provides flexible protection and follow-up functions for the camera body. The guide plates 4 on both sides of the camera body 1 slide with the T-shaped slide plate 5 via the T-shaped groove 18, allowing the protective shell 6 to move up and down along the camera body 1 to adapt to shooting needs at different angles. When the camera body 1 rotates via the adjusting bracket 3, the protective shell 6 moves synchronously under the guidance of the T-shaped slide plate 5, avoiding the restriction of the camera's range of motion by the fixed protective structure. In addition, the cooperation of the connecting plate 13, locking frame 14, and spring 15, along with the locking pin 16, securely connects the protective shell 6 to the frame 9, ensuring that the protective shell 6 will not loosen during movement. This provides protection for the camera body 1 and ensures that the tail cable 7 remains within the protection range of the protective shell 6 and the corrugated hose 8 during movement, improving the overall reliability of the camera device.
