Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of camera technology, specifically relating to a combined housing for an automotive camera. Background Technology

[0002] Cameras can be broadly classified into two categories: digital cameras and analog cameras. Digital cameras convert analog video signals generated by video capture devices into digital signals, which are then stored in a computer. The video signals captured by analog cameras must be converted from analog to digital by a specific video capture card and compressed before they can be used on a computer. Digital cameras can directly capture images and then transmit them to a computer via serial, parallel, or USB interfaces. The cameras on the computer market are mainly digital cameras, and among digital cameras, USB digital cameras using newer data transmission interfaces are the most common, and most of the products available on the market are of this type.

[0003] According to application number CN201711073414.7, a vehicle-mounted waterproof smart camera and its installation method are disclosed, including a vehicle-mounted waterproof smart camera body; the vehicle-mounted waterproof smart camera body is composed of a camera face shell, a camera bottom shell, a camera cover upper shell, a camera cover lower shell, a bracket, a light board, and a camera; the installation method includes the following steps: 1) fixing the camera cover lower shell to a platform with screws or fixing it to a rearview mirror bracket with a bracket; 2) rotating the camera so that it rotates inside the camera face shell and adjusting it to make the captured image upright; 3) locking the camera face shell with screws; the present invention is small and exquisite, easy to install, and the light board has a mold opening, which is filled with sealant to achieve waterproof function; it solves the problems of fragile glass seals, fogging and water ingress; it is also suitable for inverted and upright installation, and the installation is relatively convenient.

[0004] The above solution has a drawback in use. After installation, sealant is applied to seal the camera and make it waterproof. However, after the sealant is applied, it is not easy to disassemble the housing for later maintenance, which results in a lot of time being spent on subsequent maintenance and inspection. Therefore, we propose a combined housing for automotive cameras. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a combined housing for a vehicle camera to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that it is inconvenient to maintain and inspect the vehicle after the sealant is applied.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a combined housing for a vehicle camera, including a camera face shell, a camera bottom shell on one side of the camera face shell, a sealing groove inside the camera bottom shell, a sealing ring on the surface of the camera face shell, a sealing ring fixedly connected to the surface of the sealing ring, a camera body inside the camera face shell, an illumination lamp inside the camera face shell, and a camera cover top shell on the top of the camera face shell.

[0007] Preferably, the camera cover has first connecting blocks at both ends, and the first connecting blocks have first connecting holes inside.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the camera cover upper shell is provided with a camera cover lower shell, and the camera cover lower shell and the camera cover upper shell are detachably connected.

[0009] Preferably, the camera cover bottom shell has a second connecting block at both ends, and the second connecting block has a second connecting hole inside.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the camera cover bottom shell is provided with a third connecting block, and the third connecting block and the camera cover bottom shell are fixedly connected.

[0011] Preferably, a fourth connecting block is provided at the bottom of the third connecting block, and a bracket is provided between the fourth connecting blocks.

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

[0013] 1. The camera body and lighting lamp are assembled by using the camera front shell and camera bottom shell. The sealing ring and sealing ring are placed on the surface of the camera front shell, so that the sealing ring enters the sealing groove during the assembly process. This realizes the function of sealing and waterproofing the assembled housing of the vehicle camera, and improves the convenience of assembling and disassembling the assembled housing of the vehicle camera.

[0014] 2. The camera faceplate and camera bottomplate are fixed by assembling the camera cover upper shell 8 and camera cover lower shell 11, and the sealing ring is sealed at the same time. This realizes the function of strengthening the sealing effect of the combined housing of the vehicle camera and improves the overall sealing performance of the combined housing of the vehicle camera.
