[0039] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0040] As mentioned in the background section, existing camera housings are usually motorized housings. Motorized housings require components such as motors and gears to drive the upper baffle of the motorized housing, thereby exposing or covering the camera window of the industrial camera. However, motorized housings contain many components and have a complex structure.

[0041] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a camera housing and an industrial camera to simplify the structure of the camera housing. The camera housing will be described first.

[0042] The camera housing 10 of this application provides safety protection for industrial cameras that are susceptible to environmental damage in harsh working environments or for certain vulnerable components (such as the camera window 21). See also Figures 1a to 4 The camera protective cover 10 includes: a protective cover shell 100, a protective flip cover 200, a cylinder 300, and a transmission component 400.

[0043] The protective housing 100 is detachably fixed to the camera body 20. The protective flip cover 200 is rotatably connected to the protective housing 100. The cylinder 300 is fixed inside the protective housing 100. The first end of the transmission component 400 passes through the protective housing 100 and is connected to the piston rod 310 of the cylinder 300, and the second end is connected to the protective flip cover 200.

[0044] See Figures 5 to 6c The cylinder 300 drives the first end of the transmission component 400 to extend and retract via the piston rod 310, causing the second end of the transmission component 400 to rotate the protective cover 200 relative to the protective housing 100, so that the protective cover 200 covers or exposes the camera window 21 of the camera body 20.

[0045] The camera protective cover 10 provided in this application embodiment has a simple drive mechanism consisting only of a cylinder 300, while existing electric protective covers have a more complex drive mechanism including a motor and multiple gears. Therefore, compared with existing electric protective covers, the camera protective cover 10 provided in this application embodiment simplifies the structure of the camera protective cover.

[0046] Furthermore, the camera protective cover 10 in this embodiment is driven by a cylinder. Cylinders are cheaper than motors, and the drive mechanism only has cylinder 300, which eliminates the expense of other drive components, making the camera protective cover less expensive and suitable for users with their own air supply system who are more sensitive to product prices.

[0047] Because it is driven by a cylinder, the camera protective cover 10 of this application embodiment can be used in scenarios with high requirements for explosion protection and harsh environment resistance. For example, in a dusty environment, if an existing electric protective cover is used, the electric sparks generated by its electric structure may cause an explosion. However, the camera protective cover 10 of this application embodiment does not need to be equipped with an electric structure, so it can be used in a dusty environment and is safer.

[0048] Compared to existing camera covers that integrate the camera body inside, the camera cover 10 of this embodiment is an independent module. It is detachably fixed to the camera body 20 via the cover shell 100. It can be used independently or quickly integrated into the camera body 20 that needs protection. It is compatible with different models of camera bodies 20, has good structural compatibility, and a high degree of modularity. Since the camera body 20 does not need to be housed inside the camera cover 10, the structure of the camera cover 10 of this application is simpler, the size can be made smaller, and the appearance is more flat and aesthetically pleasing.

[0049] In this embodiment, the transmission component 400 is located only at one end inside the protective housing 100, while the rest is located outside the protective housing 100. In addition, only the cylinder 300 is located inside the protective housing 100, which allows the size of the protective housing 100 to be made smaller.

[0050] The protective flip cover 200 has two working positions, the closed state as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the protective flip cover 200 blocks the camera window 21 to prevent external damage; in the open state as follows... Figure 6a As shown, the camera window 21 can operate normally, performing tasks such as shooting, measuring, detecting, and scanning. The camera protective cover 10 can be quickly opened before normal operation and quickly closed after normal operation, minimizing the time the camera window 21 is exposed to potentially hazardous environments, thereby extending the maintenance cycle and service life.

[0051] The camera window 21 is located on one of the side walls of the camera body 20. The specific fixing position of the protective cover 100 on the camera body 20 is not limited in this application; it can be fixed to various surfaces of the camera body 20 adjacent to the camera window 21. The setting position and flipping direction of the protective flip cover 200 are also not limited in this application, but its setting position must be located on the side plate of the protective cover 100 on the same side as the camera window 21; the flipping direction can be determined according to the specific mounting surface of the protective cover 100 on the camera body 20.

[0052] For example, when the protective cover 100 is fixed to the top or bottom surface of the camera body 20, the protective flip cover 200... Figure 5 and Figure 6a As shown, the protective cover 200 is located on the side panel 112 of the housing 100, which is on the same side as the camera window 21. It can be configured to flip up and down or flip horizontally. When configured to flip up and down, the protective cover 200 flips down to cover the camera window 21 and flips up to expose the camera window 21. When configured to flip horizontally, the protective cover 200 flips horizontally outward to expose the camera window 21 and flips horizontally inward to cover the camera window 21.

[0053] When the protective housing 100 is fixed to the side of the camera body 20, the protective flip cover 200 can also be arranged in the manner described above, and will not be repeated here. This application will subsequently... Figure 5 The following explanation uses the example of the protective cover 100 being fixed to the top surface of the camera body 20.

[0054] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 1a to 3 As shown, the protective housing 100 includes: a protective housing base 110 and a protective housing upper shell 120.

[0055] The protective cover base 110 includes a base plate 111 and a side plate 112 connected to the base plate 111. The base plate 111 is detachably connected to the top of the camera body 20, and the base plate 111 and the side plate 112 form a receiving cavity 113 with an open top.

[0056] The upper housing 120 is detachably connected to the base 110 to seal the top opening, ensuring the airtightness of the housing 100 and giving it a high IP (Ingress Protection) rating. The outer surface of the upper housing 120 is provided with multiple spaced-apart heat dissipation fins 121, which improve the heat dissipation effect of the industrial camera.

[0057] The protective flip cover 200 is hinged to the first side plate 112a of the side plate 112 of the protective cover base 110. The first side plate 112a is the side plate of the protective cover shell 100 that is on the same side as the camera window 21.

[0058] like Figure 5 As shown, when the camera cover 10 is closed, the lower edge of the protective flip cover 200 is below the base plate 111 of the cover base 110, extending to be flush with or beyond the bottom edge of the camera window 21.

[0059] If the angle of the protective flip cover 200 in the closed state is recorded as 0°, then the maximum flip angle of the protective flip cover 200 can be set between 90° and 180°. Preferably, the maximum flip angle can be as follows: Figure 6a The angle is set to 90° to shorten the flipping stroke of the protective cover 200, allowing the protective cover 200 to open or close quickly.

[0060] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first side plate 112a is recessed into the receiving cavity 113 to form a mounting portion 1121. The cylinder 300 is located in the receiving cavity 113 and is fixed to the mounting portion 1121 by the cylinder bracket 500.

[0061] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the telescopic end of the piston rod 310 can extend and retract horizontally within the cylinder bracket 500 along the recessed direction of the mounting portion 1121. A transmission member 400 is disposed in the area enclosed by the side wall of the mounting portion 1121. The first end of the transmission member 400 passes through a first through hole 1122 on the mounting portion 1121 and connects to the telescopic end of the piston rod 310 within the cylinder bracket 500.

[0062] In this embodiment, the telescopic end of the piston rod 310 does not need to extend out of the protective housing 100, and the transmission component 400 used to drive the protective flip cover 200 to flip does not extend into the receiving cavity 113. This avoids the transmission component 400 from bringing dust and other impurities from the external environment into the receiving cavity 113 when it moves, thus improving the sealing performance of the protective housing 100 and improving the protection level of the camera protective cover 10. The first side plate 112a is recessed into the receiving cavity 113 to form a mounting portion 1121. The three side walls of the mounting portion 1121 form a clearance area to accommodate the transmission component 400, making the structure of the camera protective cover 10 more compact and allowing for a smaller size.

[0063] To further improve the protection level of the camera housing 10, such as Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a dustproof ring 114 is fixedly fitted inside the first through hole 1122 on the mounting part 1121. The transmission component 400 is sealed and fitted to the inner wall of the dustproof ring 114, which can prevent external dust and other impurities from entering the interior of the cylinder bracket 500 through the first through hole 1122.

[0064] In some embodiments of this application, both ends of the protective flip cover 200 are provided with flip cover pivots 600, which are hinged to both ends of the first side plate 112a. The mounting part 1121 is located in the middle of the first side plate 112a, and the second end of the transmission member 400 is connected to the middle of the protective flip cover 200. Applying the embodiments of this application, the protective flip cover 200 is hinged at both ends, and the middle is rotated by the transmission member 400, making the rotation of the protective flip cover 200 more stable and also making the structure of the camera protective cover 10 neat and aesthetically pleasing.

[0065] A specific hinge method for the protective flip cover 200 is as follows: Hinged protrusions 201 are provided at both hinge points of the protective flip cover 200, and a hinged groove 1123 is provided on the first side plate 112a at a position opposite to the hinged protrusions 201. The hinged protrusions 201 are inserted into the hinged grooves 1123, and the flip cover pivot 600 passes through the two side walls of the hinged groove 1123 and the hinged protrusions 201, allowing the hinged protrusions 201 to rotate within the hinged grooves 1123.

[0066] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the transmission component 400 includes a push rod 410 and a flip cover connecting rod 420 that are hinged to each other. The push rod 410 is fixedly connected to the piston rod 310, specifically through a threaded fastener; the flip cover connecting rod 420 is hinged to the protective flip cover 200.

[0067] The cylinder 300 drives the push rod 410 to extend and retract via the piston rod 310, causing the flip cover connecting rod 420 to rotate relative to the push rod 410, thereby driving the protective flip cover 200 to flip.

[0068] By applying the embodiments of this application, the linear motion of the piston rod 310 of the cylinder 300 is converted into the rotational opening and closing motion of the protective flip cover 200 through the hinged push rod 410 and the flip cover connecting rod 420, thereby realizing the main function of the camera protective cover 10, and making the camera protective cover 10 have fewer parts, simpler structure, and easier installation.

[0069] A specific hinged connection method between the push rod 410 and the flip cover connecting rod 420 is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the push rod 410 has a first hinge seat 411 at its end, and the protective flip cover 200 has a second hinge seat 210. The two ends of the flip cover connecting rod 420 are respectively hinged to the two hinge seats. Specifically, the hinge seats can be... Figure 4 The U-shaped hinge seat is shown. The first hinge seat 411 can be integrated with the push rod 410, and the second hinge seat 210 can be integrated with the protective flip cover 200, so as to reduce the number of parts and simplify the installation steps.

[0070] This application does not limit the number of flip-cover connecting rods 420; the specific number can be determined according to the size of the protective flip cover 200. If the protective flip cover 200 is large, multiple spaced first hinge seats 411 can be arranged side-by-side at the end of the push rod 410, and multiple second hinge seats 210 can be arranged at corresponding positions on the protective flip cover 200, so that multiple flip-cover connecting rods 420 can be hinged between the protective flip cover 200 and the push rod 410. This improves the smoothness of the rotation of the protective flip cover 200.

[0071] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, cylinder 300 has a first air passage interface 320. Cylinder 300 is connected to an external air supply system through the first air passage interface 320 so that piston rod 310 can extend and retract. A second through hole is provided on the side plate 112 of the protective cover base 110.

[0072] A direct connection can be used, where the air tube passes through the second through hole, with one end connected to the first air passage interface 320 and the other end connected to the external air supply system. To improve the protection level, a sealing ring can be installed at the second through hole to prevent dust and other impurities from the external environment from entering the receiving cavity 113 through the second through hole.

[0073] Alternatively, an indirect connection can be used, with a second air passage interface 330 sealed on the second through hole. The first end of the second air passage interface 330 is located inside the receiving cavity 113, and the second end of the second air passage interface 330 is located outside the receiving cavity 113. The first air passage interface 320 is connected to the first end of the second air passage interface 330 through an internal air pipe; the second end of the second air passage interface 330 is connected to an external air supply system through an external air pipe.

[0074] Using the aforementioned indirect connection method, when the camera protective cover 10 is not in use, the first air passage interface 320 and the second air passage interface 330 are always connected through the internal air tube without disassembly. When installing the camera protective cover 10, there is no need to open the outer shell 100 of the cover; simply connect the external air tube at the second air passage interface 330, making the installation process simpler. Furthermore, since it is not necessary to open the outer shell 100 of the cover, external dust and other impurities can be prevented from entering the receiving cavity 113, thereby improving the protection level.

[0075] The number of the first air passage interface 320 and the second air passage interface 330 are both two, one set is used for air outlet and the other set is used for air inlet.

[0076] The external air supply system includes an air compressor and air circuit control components. All air circuit control components, such as the solenoid valve and throttle valve of the control cylinder 300, are located outside the camera protective cover 10. They can be installed at appropriate locations at the site of use. The opening and closing speed of the cylinder can be easily controlled by adjusting the throttle valve from the outside, thereby controlling the opening and closing speed of the protective cover 200 to match the usage scenario.

[0077] When industrial cameras need to be used in dusty environments, only the camera housing 10 and the camera body 20 can be placed in the dusty environment, while the air compressor and air circuit control components are placed outside the dusty environment, thereby ensuring the safety of the industrial camera during operation.

[0078] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1b , Figure 6b and Figure 6c As shown, the protective flip cover 200 is provided with an anti-collision pad 700 on the side of the camera window 21 facing the camera body 20, so as to buffer the impact when the protective flip cover 200 collides with other parts during the flipping process.

[0079] Specifically, the 700 anti-collision rubber pad is divided into two parts, such as... Figure 4As shown, it includes a first anti-collision pad 710 and a second anti-collision pad 720. The first anti-collision pad 710 is disposed in the lower region of the protective flap 200, that is, the region where the protective flap 200 does not overlap with the side plate 112 of the protective housing 100 when the protective flap 200 is in the 0° position. The second anti-collision pad 720 is disposed on the hinge protrusion 201 of the protective flap 200, that is, the region where the hinge protrusion 201 of the protective flap 200 is in contact with the side plate 112 of the protective housing 100 when the protective flap 200 is in the 90° position.

[0080] This application does not limit the specific shape of the first anti-collision pad 710; it can be a single square pad, or... Figure 1b As shown, a ring is arranged around the edge of the protective flip cover 200 to reduce the weight of the anti-collision pad 700, thereby reducing the weight of the camera protective cover 10.

[0081] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1a , Figure 1b and Figure 5 As shown, the housing 100 has a through mounting hole 130. A fastener passes through the mounting hole 130 and is fixedly connected to the camera body 20 to securely mount the housing 100 to the camera body 20. The fastener can be a screw.

[0082] By applying the embodiments of this application, the camera protective cover 10 is modularly designed. The protective cover shell 100 and the camera body 20 are aligned with the holes and fixed with screws, which is convenient for installation and operation.

[0083] like Figure 9 As shown, the camera body 20 has a protective cover mounting hole 22 at a position corresponding to the mounting hole 130. After the fixing screw passes through the mounting hole 130 on the protective cover housing 100, it is inserted into the protective cover mounting hole 22 on the camera body 20 to fix the camera protective cover 10 to the camera body 20.

[0084] The aforementioned mounting hole 130 penetrates the outer shell 100 of the protective cover, meaning that through holes are provided on both the upper shell 120 and the base 110 of the protective cover to form a through mounting hole 130. This application does not limit the location of the mounting hole 130 and the protective cover mounting hole 22; the mounting hole 130 can be provided as long as no other components are provided at a certain location on the outer shell 100 of the protective cover and the camera body 20. For example... Figure 1a and Figure 9 As shown, mounting holes 130 are located at the four corners of the protective housing 100, making the connection between the protective housing 100 and the camera body 20 more secure.

[0085] To improve the compatibility of the camera protective cover 10 and enable it to fit more camera body models 20, multiple sets of mounting holes 130 can be provided on the outer shell 100 of the cover according to the size of each camera body model 20. Furthermore, protective flip covers 200 of different sizes can be provided according to the size of each camera body model 20. When installing the camera protective cover 10, the corresponding mounting holes 130 and protective flip covers 200 can be selected according to the model of the camera body 20 to be protected.

[0086] The industrial camera provided in this application is described below.

[0087] like Figure 5 , Figures 6a to 6c and Figure 9 As shown, the industrial camera includes: a camera body 20 and a camera protective cover 10 in any of the above embodiments. The outer shell 100 of the camera protective cover 10 is detachably fixed to the camera body 20; the protective flip cover 200 of the camera protective cover 10 is flipped under the drive of the cylinder 300 to cover or expose the camera window 21 of the camera body 20.

[0088] In this embodiment, the industrial camera can be protected by covering the camera window 21 with the protective flip cover 200 of the camera protective cover 10. When the industrial camera needs to work normally, the protective flip cover 200 can be adjusted to a position where it does not cover the camera window 21 under the drive of the cylinder 300.

[0089] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application are included within the scope of protection of this application.
