Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitoring equipment technology, and in particular to an impact-resistant monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Surveillance equipment is a core component of modern security systems, widely used in urban public safety, traffic management, industrial production, and commercial settings. These devices are often deployed outdoors or in complex indoor environments, inevitably exposing them to the risk of malicious damage (such as throwing stones or striking with sticks) or accidental collisions (such as vehicle impacts or falling objects). Therefore, ensuring that surveillance equipment can maintain normal function or quickly recover after being subjected to impacts is crucial for maintaining the continuity and stability of the surveillance system; its physical protection capabilities are a key factor that must be considered during the design phase.

[0003] Currently, there are several common but limited technical solutions for shock protection of surveillance equipment. Firstly, the most common method is to install a transparent protective cover on the outside of the camera. While this can withstand minor scratches, it has a significant drawback: under sufficiently strong impact, the rigid transparent cover is prone to breakage. The flying fragments can not only scratch the camera lens, affecting image quality, but also cause secondary damage to delicate electronic components and mechanical structures inside the equipment, leading to complete failure. Furthermore, replacing a broken protective cover usually requires stopping the system and disassembling the entire equipment casing, making maintenance cumbersome and hindering rapid replacement, thus reducing system reliability. Secondly, some existing cushioning structures are poorly designed. Many designs use simple springs for shock absorption, which have low energy absorption efficiency, and the cushioning process often manifests as a harsh, "hard-on-hard" collision.

[0004] Therefore, further improvements are needed, and to this end, we have proposed an impact-resistant monitoring device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an impact-resistant monitoring device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an impact-resistant monitoring device, comprising a top base, a circular opening on the bottom wall of the top base, an inner plate slidably connected inside the top base, a connecting column fixed on the lower surface of the inner plate, a top shell fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting column through the circular opening, a camera fixed on the inner top wall of the top shell, a protective shell covering the camera, a transparent film pasted on the inner wall of the protective shell, two symmetrical through holes on the side wall of the top shell, a snap-fit ​​assembly for fixing the protective shell provided inside the top shell near the through holes, multiple springs fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting column and the inner wall of the circular opening, multiple buffer pads and multiple pressure sensors fixed on the inner side wall of the top base and outside the inner plate, a cross arm fixed on the outer side wall of the top base, and a mounting plate fixed at the other end of the cross arm, a controller mounted on the upper surface of the cross arm.

[0007] Furthermore, an annular plate is fixed to the inner wall of the top shell, and the top of the protective shell is attached to the lower surface of the annular plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a locking hole is provided at the top of the side wall of the protective shell near the locking assembly. The locking assembly includes a vertical plate, with a top rod and a locking rod fixed to its top and bottom ends, respectively. The top rod passes through the through hole and is slidably connected to it, while the bottom end of the locking rod engages in the locking hole. A tension spring is fixedly connected to both the vertical plate and the inner side wall of the top shell.

[0009] Furthermore, an end plate is fixedly connected to one end of the top rod located outside the top shell, and the size of the end plate is larger than the size of the through hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting plate has several mounting holes on its side.

[0011] Furthermore, the controller has a built-in remote transmission module, and a mobile terminal is set up to match the remote transmission module. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the controller.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. In use, this utility model includes a top base, inner plate, connecting column, top shell, camera, protective shell, and snap-fit ​​assembly. The protective shell directly protects the camera by being placed on the outside of the camera, and a transparent film is placed on the inner wall of the protective shell. Even if the protective shell is broken by impact, the broken pieces of the protective shell will be stuck together by the transparent film, avoiding damage to the camera and playing a direct protective role. Secondly, the protective shell is fixedly connected to the top shell by the snap-fit ​​assembly. When the protective shell is damaged, it can be replaced. Replacing the protective shell is less costly in the later maintenance than repairing or replacing the camera.

[0014] 2. When in use, this utility model is equipped with a top seat, inner plate, connecting column, top shell, camera, protective shell, spring and buffer pad. When the protective shell is impacted, it will cause the connecting column and inner plate to shake. At this time, the spring and buffer pad support the inner plate and connecting column from all directions, which plays a good buffering role. Attached Figure Description

[0022] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1-4As shown, an impact-resistant monitoring device is disclosed, comprising a top base 1, a circular opening 101 on the bottom wall of the top base 1, an inner plate 2 slidably connected inside the top base 1, a connecting post 3 fixed on the lower surface of the inner plate 2, a top shell 4 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting post 3 through the circular opening 101, a camera 5 fixed on the inner top wall of the top shell 4, a protective shell 6 covering the camera 5, a transparent film 61 pasted on the inner wall of the protective shell 6, two symmetrical through holes 41 on the side wall of the top shell 4, a snap-fit ​​assembly 7 for fixing the protective shell 6 provided inside the top shell 4 near the through holes 41, multiple springs 9 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting post 3 and the inner wall of the circular opening 101, multiple buffer pads 10 and multiple pressure sensors 11 fixedly on the inner wall of the top base 1 and outside the inner plate 2, a cross arm 12 fixedly on the outer wall of the top base 1, and a mounting plate 13 fixedly on the other end of the cross arm 12, and a controller 14 mounted on the upper surface of the cross arm 12.

[0024] An annular plate 8 is fixed to the inner wall of the top shell 4, and the top of the protective shell 6 is attached to the lower surface of the annular plate 8.

[0025] When the protective shell 6 is inserted into the top shell 4 for installation, the annular plate 8 acts as a limit. The insertion process continues until the top of the protective shell 6 contacts the annular plate 8.

[0026] A locking hole 62 is provided at the top of the side wall of the protective shell 6 near the locking assembly 7. The locking assembly 7 includes a vertical plate 71, with a top rod 72 and a locking rod 73 fixed at its top and bottom ends, respectively. The top rod 72 passes through the through hole 41 and is slidably connected to the through hole 41. The bottom end of the locking rod 73 is engaged in the locking hole 62. A tension spring 74 is fixedly connected to the vertical plate 71 and the inner side wall of the top shell 4.

[0027] Under the tension of the tension spring 74, the vertical plate 71 is pulled towards the locking hole 62, keeping the locking rod 73 engaged in the locking hole 62, thereby fixing the protective shell 6. When the protective shell 6 needs to be replaced, by pressing the top rod 72, the top rod 72 pushes the vertical plate 71 and the locking rod 73 away from the locking hole 62. After the locking rod 73 separates from the locking hole 62, the protective shell 6 can be removed from the top shell 4 for replacement.

[0028] The top rod 72 is fixedly connected to an end plate 75 at one end outside the top shell 4. The size of the end plate 75 is larger than the size of the through hole 41.

[0029] When the push rod 72 is pressed back into the top shell 4, the end plate 75 can prevent the push rod 72 from completely disengaging from the through hole 41.

[0030] The mounting plate 13 has several mounting holes on its side.

[0031] The mounting holes facilitate the fixed installation of the mounting plate 13.

[0032] The controller 14 has a built-in remote transmission module, and a mobile terminal that is matched with the remote transmission module is set up. The pressure sensor 11 is electrically connected to the controller 14.

[0033] In this embodiment, the controller 14 is a PLC controller, the remote transmission module is a 5G module, and the model of the pressure sensor 11 is not limited. The pressure sensor 11 monitors the impact force in real time. When the impact force exceeds a preset threshold, the controller 14 immediately generates an alarm message containing time, intensity, and location, and wirelessly transmits the data to the cloud server via the built-in 5G module. The server then sends push alarms to the bound mobile terminal, enabling staff to remotely monitor the impact status of the equipment in real time, realizing intelligent proactive early warning from perception and judgment to remote notification, greatly improving maintenance response efficiency.

[0034] Working principle: When the monitoring equipment is in normal use, the protective shell 6 protects the camera 5. Once impacted, the protective shell 6 protects the camera 5. Even if the protective shell 6 breaks, the fragments are held in place by the transparent film 61 inside the protective shell 6. When replacing the protective shell 6, press the top rod 72 to separate the locking rod 73 from the locking hole 62 on the protective shell 6. The protective shell 6 can then be removed from the top shell 4 and replaced with a new one. After inserting the new protective shell 6 into the top shell 4, release the top rod 72. The tension spring 74 will then pull the vertical plate 71 and the locking rod 73 back to their original positions, causing the locking rod 73 to engage in the locking hole 62.

[0035] Secondly, when the protective shell 6 is subjected to a strong impact, it will cause the connecting column 3 to shake within the circular opening 101 and the inner plate 2 within the top seat 1. This, combined with the support of the buffer pad 10, provides shock absorption. If the pressure sensor 11 detects that the impact pressure on the inner plate 2 exceeds the preset value of the controller 14, the controller 14 will send an alarm message to a mobile terminal via the remote transmission module to alert personnel. Personnel can then determine whether the impact was caused by damage or other factors through the camera footage.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
