Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cameras, and in particular to cameras that are assembled stably. Background Technology

[0002] In photography, especially when using professional light boxes, it's common to integrate the camera securely within the light box structure. These cameras typically consist of a core camera assembly and a specially designed camera housing. This housing not only provides physical protection but also positions and secures the camera assembly, ensuring the lens can precisely extend through the light box walls for shooting. To achieve a uniform and soft lighting effect, a fill light is integrated within the housing, and a diffuser is located on the side of the camera housing closest to the subject to diffuse light and eliminate harsh shadows. The other side of the camera housing features a rear cover to seal the housing and provide necessary interfaces or ventilation space.

[0003] Currently, there is a significant flaw in the assembly of camera housings integrated into light boxes. A common method involves attaching the diffuser to the front opening of the camera housing using adhesive. However, this method has obvious shortcomings. Over time, the adhesive can lose its stickiness due to aging, temperature changes, or mechanical vibration, causing the connection between the diffuser and the main housing to loosen or even detach completely. This not only compromises the integrity of the housing and affects the stability of the imaging optical path, but can also damage the camera lens or affect shooting results due to the diffuser shifting or detaching, reducing the product's reliability and lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technical solutions, this utility model provides a camera with stable assembly, which can effectively solve the technical problem of unstable installation and easy loosening of the diffuser.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A stable camera assembly includes a camera component and a camera housing. The camera component is fixed inside the camera housing by a mounting bracket. The lens of the camera component extends to the outside of the camera housing. The camera housing includes a main housing, a diffuser, and a rear cover. The main housing has a through-cavity. The diffuser and the rear cover cover the two openings of the cavity. The edges of the two openings of the cavity are provided with positioning steps. The edges of the diffuser and the rear cover cover are matched with the positioning steps. A light plate is provided at one end of the mounting bracket near the diffuser. The mounting bracket has a front cover connection hole and a rear cover connection hole. The diffuser has a bracket connection hole, which is aligned with the front cover connection hole. The mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the diffuser by screwing the front cover bolts into the front cover connection hole and the bracket connection hole in sequence. The rear cover cover has a nut hole. A positioning support sleeve is provided on the inner wall of the main housing. The rear cover connection hole, the positioning support sleeve, and the nut hole are aligned. The rear cover cover is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket and the main housing by rear cover bolts. The rear cover bolts pass through the nut hole and the positioning support sleeve in sequence and are tightened into the rear cover connection hole.

[0007] Furthermore, a filter base is provided on the surface of the diffuser, and a mounting screw hole is provided on the bottom surface of the filter base. The front cover bolts are screwed into the front cover connection hole, the bracket connection hole and the mounting screw hole in sequence.

[0008] Furthermore, the filter base is connected to a detachable physical filter and a matting cover, and the filter base, physical filter, and matting cover are all provided with threaded assembly parts for connection.

[0009] Furthermore, the side wall of the main housing is provided with a mounting base for connecting the bracket, and the mounting base is provided with two or more threaded interfaces.

[0010] Furthermore, the camera assembly includes an image module, a main control board, and an interface control board.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] 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.

[0021] The following is combined with Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a detailed description of the assembled and stable camera:

[0022] A stable camera assembly includes a camera component 1 and a camera housing. The camera component 1 is fixed inside the camera housing by a mounting bracket 6. The lens of the camera component 1 extends to the outside of the camera housing. The camera housing includes a main housing 2, a diffuser 3, and a rear cover 4. The main housing 2 has a through-hole cavity 5 inside. The diffuser 3 and the rear cover 4 are used to cover the two openings of the cavity 5, respectively. The edges of the two openings of the cavity 5 are provided with positioning steps 201. The edges of the diffuser 3 and the rear cover 4 mate with the positioning steps 201. A light plate 7 is provided at one end of the mounting bracket 6 near the diffuser 3. The mounting bracket 6 has a front cover connection hole 601 and... The back cover has a connecting hole 602, and the diffuser plate 3 has a bracket connecting hole 301. The bracket connecting hole 301 is aligned with the front cover connecting hole 601. The mounting bracket 6 is fixedly connected to the diffuser plate 3 by screwing the front cover bolts into the front cover connecting hole 601 and the bracket connecting hole 301 in sequence. The back cover plate 4 has a nut hole 401, and the inner wall of the main housing 2 has a positioning support sleeve 202. The back cover connecting hole 602, the positioning support sleeve 202 and the nut hole 401 are aligned. The back cover plate 4 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 6 and the main housing 2 by the back cover bolts. The back cover bolts pass through the nut hole 401 and the positioning support sleeve 202 in sequence and are then tightened into the back cover connecting hole 602.

[0023] The diffuser plate 3 and the rear cover plate 4 are tightly fitted onto the positioning steps 201 at both ends of the receiving cavity 5 of the main housing 2. Using the mounting bracket 6 as an intermediate connector, the diffuser plate 3 is directly and firmly fixed to the front end of the mounting bracket 6 using front cover bolts. Simultaneously, the rear cover bolts pass sequentially through the nut hole 401 on the rear cover plate 4 and the positioning support sleeve 202 on the inner wall of the main housing 2, finally tightening onto the rear cover connection hole 602 at the rear end of the mounting bracket 6. This ensures that the diffuser plate 3, the main housing 2, and the rear cover plate 4 are tightly clamped and fixed as a single unit by the mounting bracket 6 and bolts. The diffuser plate 3 and the rear cover plate 4 are securely clamped to both ends of the main housing 2 like clamps, eliminating any possibility of loosening in any direction.

[0024] The design of the positioning step 201 and positioning support sleeve 202 ensures precise alignment of each component during assembly, further enhancing the rigidity and stability of the overall structure. The main housing 2, diffuser 3, rear cover 4, and mounting bracket 6 are tightly connected by bolts, forming a robust frame that greatly improves the overall structural strength and impact resistance of the camera housing.

[0025] The mechanical fastening method of bolt connection fundamentally overcomes the problem of glue aging and failure. Regardless of long-term use, changes in ambient temperature and humidity, or vibrations during transportation and operation, this rigid connection can maintain extremely high stability, ensuring that the relative positions of the diffuser 3, camera assembly 1, and housing are always accurate and reliable.

[0026] The diffuser plate 3 has a filter base 8 on its surface. The bottom surface of the filter base 8 has mounting screw holes 801. The front cover bolts are screwed into the front cover connection hole 601, the bracket connection hole 301, and the mounting screw holes 801 in sequence. The filter base 8 is integrated into the core connection structure between the diffuser plate 3 and the mounting bracket 6. By allowing the front cover bolts to be screwed directly into the mounting screw holes 801 of the filter base 8 while simultaneously securing the diffuser plate 3 and the mounting bracket 6, triple fixation is achieved. This significantly simplifies the structure, reduces the number of parts and assembly steps, avoids the need for a separate fastener for the filter base 8, and reduces cost and production complexity. More importantly, it ensures a rigid connection between the filter base 8, the diffuser plate 3, and the mounting bracket 6, eliminating the additional risk of loosening that might occur with the filter base 8 as an independent component, and further improving the rigidity and stability of the overall assembly.

[0027] The filter base 8 is connected to a detachable physical filter 9 and a light-mask 10. The filter base 8, physical filter 9, and light-mask 10 are all provided with threaded assembly parts for connection. Through these threaded assembly parts, users can quickly and conveniently select and install the physical filter 9, light-mask 10, or a combination of both, according to actual shooting needs such as strong light suppression, anti-glare, and special effects. The physical filter 9 and light-mask 10 can be installed individually or in combination, and the installation order is interchangeable, greatly expanding the camera's applicable scenarios and meeting the diverse creative needs of photographers. The tool-free quick replacement of accessories improves the user experience while maintaining the stability of the connection structure, ensuring that the accessories are not easily accidentally dislodged or displaced after installation.

[0028] The camera assembly 1 includes an image module 101, a main control board 102, and an interface control board 103. Both the interface control board 103 and the image module 101 are electrically connected to the main control board 102. The interface control board 103 is equipped with USB, HDMI, power, and network interfaces, as well as control buttons on the light panel 7. The interface control board 103 extends to the surface of the rear cover 4. This design optimizes the user experience by centralizing and intuitively placing all external interfaces at the rear of the camera, facilitating cable insertion and removal and preventing cable tangling or interference with the internal structure. The centralized control architecture, where both the image module 101 and the interface control board 103 are connected to the main control board 102, simplifies internal wiring, improves signal transmission efficiency and reliability, and contributes to stable overall performance.

[0029] A heat sink 104 is mounted on the end of the main control board 102 furthest from the image module 101. The sidewall of the heat sink 104 contacts the inner wall of the main housing 2. The main housing 2 is made of metal, and the close contact between the sidewall of the heat sink 104 and the inner wall of the metal main housing 2 creates an excellent heat conduction path from the chip of the main control board 102 to the metal housing. As a large-area passive heat sink, the metal main housing 2 can quickly conduct the heat generated by the main control board 102 to the surface of the housing and dissipate it into the air. This design significantly improves the camera's heat dissipation capacity, effectively preventing key electronic components such as the main control board 102 from experiencing performance degradation, instability, or even damage due to overheating. This ensures the stability and lifespan of the camera under long-term high-load operation, such as video recording and high-speed continuous shooting.

[0030] Both the mounting bracket 6 and the rear cover plate 4 are provided with slots 11 for fixing the interface control board 103. The slots 11 provide precise positioning and reliable physical constraints, ensuring the stability of the connection between the interface control board 103 and the main control board 102, reducing the risk of failure due to poor internal connections, and preventing the interface control board 103 from shifting due to external forces received during interface plugging and unplugging.

[0031] The main housing 2 has a mounting base 203 on its side wall for connecting a support bracket. The mounting base 203 has two threaded interfaces 204. Having multiple threaded interfaces 204 on the side wall significantly enhances the convenience and stability of connecting the camera to external supports such as tripods, gimbals, handheld stabilizers, and booms. The two interfaces provide a wider range of mounting point options, allowing users to flexibly choose the most suitable fixing position according to the usage scenario, such as horizontal shooting, vertical shooting, or special angles, optimizing balance and maneuverability.

[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
