Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of camera module technology, and in particular to a retractable lens camera module. Background Technology
[0002] A retractable lens camera module is a camera component that integrates a lens extension function through a mechanical structure (such as a motor drive). When the camera needs to be used, the module uses precise control of the extension drive component to make the lens unit extend out of the preset protective chamber in an orderly manner to complete the work deployment; when idle, the lens retracts into the protective chamber to achieve physical sealing protection.
[0003] When a camera is fixed horizontally on a desktop, the lack of height adjustment based on the user's height can easily lead to compositional imbalances during shooting. In scenarios such as video conferencing and online teaching, where capturing a complete image of a person is crucial, the fixed lens height and limited field of view often result in images that fail to adapt to the proportions of users of different heights (e.g., adults in sitting posture, children standing, or natural postures of different height groups). Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that when a camera is placed horizontally on a table, it cannot be adjusted to the user's height, which can easily lead to composition problems such as "failure to capture the user's head".

[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0022] Example 1: As Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a retractable lens camera module, including an adjustment chamber 1. A height telescopic adjustment component 2 is fixedly connected inside the adjustment chamber 1. A transmission frame 20 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the height telescopic adjustment component 2. A camera body 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the transmission frame 20. A mounting groove 11 is provided on one side of the adjustment chamber 1. An arc-shaped glass plate 12 is fixedly connected inside the mounting groove 11. A rotation adjustment component 3 is provided at the bottom of the adjustment chamber 1. The drive end of the rotation adjustment component 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjustment chamber 1. The height telescopic adjustment component 2 includes a... The system consists of a motor 21, a lead screw 22, a drive block 23, a mounting plate 24, a side plate 25, a slide rail 26, and a slider 27. The drive end of the motor 21 is connected to one end of the lead screw 22. The other end of the lead screw 22 is threaded into the inside of the drive block 23. One side of the drive block 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 24. The transmission frame 20 is fixedly connected to the other side of the mounting plate 24. The motor 21 and the slide rail 26 are fixedly mounted on one side of the side plate 25. The slider 27 is slidably connected to the outside of the slide rail 26. The other side of the slider 27 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 24.
[0023] The specific settings and functions of this embodiment are described below. When the shooting height of the camera body 4 needs to be actively adjusted according to the user's height, the first motor 21 drives the lead screw 22 to rotate, and the drive block 23 adjusts the height along the lead screw 22. The drive block 23 drives the mounting plate 24, the transmission frame 20, and the camera body 4 to rise and fall. At the same time, the rotating adjustment component 3 drives the adjustment chamber 1 to rotate at the corresponding angle, so that the camera body 4 faces the user directly and can clearly and comprehensively capture the user's whole body, avoiding composition problems such as "unable to capture the user's head". This adjustment mechanism can also significantly improve the efficiency and adaptability of use in multiple scenarios. In scenarios where multiple people use the camera alternately, such as office meeting rooms and offline interview rooms, there is no need for manual height calibration. The camera can automatically adapt to the height as different users sit down, reducing operation waiting time and making the communication or recording process smoother. In addition, the curved glass plate 12 can provide a certain degree of protection for the camera body 4, preventing sharp hard objects from hitting the lens of the camera body 4.
[0024] Example 2: Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the retractable lens camera module of this utility model includes an adjustment chamber 1. A height telescopic adjustment component 2 is fixedly connected inside the adjustment chamber 1. A transmission frame 20 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the height telescopic adjustment component 2. A camera body 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the transmission frame 20. A mounting groove 11 is opened on one side of the adjustment chamber 1. An arc-shaped glass plate 12 is fixedly connected inside the mounting groove 11. A rotation adjustment component 3 is provided at the bottom of the adjustment chamber 1. The drive end of the rotation adjustment component 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjustment chamber 1. The rotation adjustment component 3 includes a second motor 31, a speed reducer 32, a drive gear 33, and a transmission gear. 34 and mounting plate 35, the output end of motor 31 is connected to the input end of speed changer 32, the output end of speed changer 32 is fixedly connected to the center of drive gear 33, drive gear 33 and transmission gear 34 mesh with each other, mounting plate 35 is fixedly installed on one side of transmission gear 34, and mounting platform 36 is provided on the other side of transmission gear 34. Transmission gear 34 is rotatably connected to the top surface of mounting platform 36. Isolation cover is provided on the outside of transmission gear 34 and drive gear 33. Isolation plate 13 is fixedly connected inside the adjustment chamber 1. Slide groove is opened inside the isolation plate 13, and transmission frame 20 is set inside the slide groove.
[0025] The overall effect of this embodiment is that when the rotating adjustment component 3 drives the adjustment chamber 1 to adjust the angle, the second motor 31 drives the speed changer 32 to work, and the speed changer 32 drives the drive gear 33 to rotate. Under the transmission of the transmission gear 34, the adjustment chamber 1 on the mounting plate 35 makes the corresponding angle adjustment. An isolation cover is set on the outside of the transmission gear 34 and the drive gear 33, which can effectively prevent dust, hair, debris and other debris from the external environment from entering the meshing area of the two gears. This ensures that the transmission gear 34 and the drive gear 33 always maintain a precise meshing state, ensures a smooth and stable transmission process, avoids problems such as jamming, abnormal noise and reduced adjustment accuracy caused by the intrusion of debris, and significantly improves the transmission reliability of the gear set.
[0026] Meanwhile, the isolation cover effectively encloses the exposed gear structure, concealing the complex form of the mechanical transmission components and reducing the abruptness of the module's appearance. This optimizes the overall visual effect of the module, making its appearance more neat and harmonious. The isolation plate 13 also has an aesthetic function for the height telescopic adjustment component 2. It can conceal any gaps and joint marks that may appear during the extension and retraction of the telescopic rods, transforming the dynamically changing mechanical structure into a simple and coherent visual form. This ensures that the height telescopic adjustment component 2 maintains a clean and uniform appearance in both extended and retracted states, thereby enhancing the component's stylistic harmony with the overall equipment.
[0027] The usage and working principle of this device are as follows: When it is necessary to actively adjust the shooting height of the camera body 4 according to the user's height, the first motor 21 drives the lead screw 22 to rotate, and the drive block 23 adjusts the height along the lead screw 22. The drive block 23 drives the mounting plate 24, the transmission frame 20 and the camera body 4 to rise and fall. At the same time, when the rotating adjustment component 3 drives the adjustment chamber 1 to adjust the angle, the second motor 31 drives the speed changer 32 to work. The speed changer 32 drives the drive gear 33 to rotate. Under the transmission of the transmission gear 34, the adjustment chamber 1 on the mounting plate 35 adjusts the angle accordingly, so that the camera body 4 faces the user.
[0028] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model without departing from the technical solution of this utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
