[0015] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] This invention provides a locking assembly for precisely locking a rotating component at a preset angular position when adjusting a rotating camera. This locking assembly can fix the camera body at a predetermined angle, preventing angular displacement of the camera.

[0018] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, the locking assembly 1 according to this utility model has an adjusting member 10 that can be threadedly connected to the rotating camera housing 2, and a locking block 11 and a stop plate 12 that can be assembled with the adjusting member 10. By turning the adjusting member 10, the locking block 11 is forced to move along the axial direction of the adjusting member 10 within the space enclosed by the rotating camera housing 2 and the rotating camera body 3, so that the locking block 11 can contact the rotating camera body 3, thereby locking the rotating camera body 3 and realizing indexing fixation.

[0019] See Figure 2 , Figure 2 The assembly relationship between the adjusting member 10 and the stop plate 12 is shown. The adjusting member 10 has a columnar structure and has a first end face 101 and a second end face 102 that are arranged opposite each other along the axial extension direction. The first end face 101 is located on the outer side along the threaded connection direction with the rotating camera housing 2, while the second end face 102 is located on the inner side along the threaded connection direction with the rotating camera housing 2. A hexagonal wrench hole is provided on the first end face 101 to realize the adjustment of the adjusting member 10. In some embodiments, the hexagonal wrench hole can also be set as a flat hole, a cross hole, or a Torx hole suitable for screwdrivers.

[0020] See also Figure 2 The adjusting member 10 has a threaded section 103, a smooth section 104, and a convex section 105 coaxially constructed from the first end face 101 to the second end face 102. The threaded section 103 is assembled and connected to the rotating camera housing 2, the smooth section 104 matches the groove 121 of the stop plate 12, the outer diameter of the convex section 105 is larger than the outer diameter of the smooth section 104, and the outer diameter of the threaded section 103 is larger than the outer diameter of the convex section 105. The above structure ensures that the adjusting member 10 can be assembled with the locking block 11 and the stop plate 12.

[0021] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 3 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the locking block 11 is shown. Figure 4 A horizontal cross-sectional view of the locking block 11 in the vertical direction is shown. Figure 5 A vertical cross-sectional view of the locking block 11 is shown.

[0022] A through hole 111 is provided on the locking block 11. In some embodiments, the through hole 111 is located near the geometric center of the locking block 11. The diameter of the through hole 111 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10. With this configuration, the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10 can freely pass through the through hole 111. At the same time, the diameter of the through hole 111 is smaller than the outer diameter of the threaded section 103 of the adjusting member 10. With this configuration, when the adjusting member 10 is turned to move closer to the rotating camera body 3, the locking block 11 can be pushed to move together in the direction of the rotating camera body 3.

[0023] See Figure 4 The locking block 11 has a receiving groove 112 on its side, which extends to the area near the center of the through hole 111. The receiving groove 112 is used to receive the stop plate 12. The groove 121 on the stop plate 12 cooperates with the through hole 111. When the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10 passes through the through hole 111, the groove 121 on the stop plate 12 cooperates with the smooth section 104 of the adjusting member 10, so that the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10 is blocked on one side of the stop plate 12, realizing the stop function. With this configuration, when the adjusting member 10 is turned away from the rotating camera body 3, the stop plate 12 blocks the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10, so that the locking block 11 and the adjusting member 10 are moved away from the rotating camera body 3 together, realizing the release of the lock.

[0024] In some embodiments, the rotating camera body 3 is mounted on the rotating camera housing 2. Through the shaft hole structure, the rotating camera body 3 can rotate relative to the rotating camera housing 2. In order to improve the accuracy of indexing and fixing, the outer side of the rotating camera body 3 is constructed with a tooth structure. The locking block 11 is provided with a contoured surface on the side facing the rotating camera body 3. Specifically, the contoured surface is provided with an anti-slip structure (tooth, groove, ridge or tooth) that can cooperate with the tooth structure on the outer side of the rotating camera body 3, thereby increasing the locking accuracy between the locking block 11 and the rotating camera body 3.

[0025] The locking assembly proposed in this utility model has a simple structure, is easy to process, and achieves the indexing and fixing of the rotating camera at low cost.

[0026] In some embodiments, the protruding section 105 of the adjusting member 10 can also be configured as having an elastically deformable structure. Meanwhile, the through hole 111 on the locking block 11 is opened on the outer side of the rotating camera body 3 to stop the protruding section 105 with the elastically deformable structure. This structure can omit the stop baffle 12. Therefore, the processing requirements of the adjusting member 10 are improved.
