Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0009] In the following embodiments of the present invention, when necessary, they will be described separately in a plurality of sections etc., but in principle, they are not unrelated to each other, and one is related to a modified example, details, etc. of a part or all of the other. For this reason, in all the figures, members having the same function are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the repeated description thereof is omitted. Also, regarding the number of components (including the number, numerical value, amount, range, etc.), unless specifically stated or limited to a specific number in principle, it is not limited to that specific number, and it may be more than or less than the specific number. Also, when referring to the shape of components etc., unless specifically stated and considered not to be so in principle, it includes those substantially approximate or similar to the shape etc.

[0010] (First Embodiment) The first embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. The fixture 10 has an imaging device holding part 20 and an imaging device attachment part 40. The fixture 10 can attach the imaging device 100 to the attachment object B.

[0011] (Imaging device 100) FIG. 1 is a front view of the imaging device holding part 20 included in the fixture 10. FIG. 2 is a front view of the imaging device holding part 20 attached to the imaging device 100, FIG. 3 is a right side view, FIG. 4 is a bottom view, and FIG. 5 is a rear view. The imaging device 100 has an imaging part 101 and a housing 102. The imaging part 101 can image surrounding subjects. The housing 102 houses a control part that overall controls the operation of the imaging part 101. Note that the imaging part 101 is not limited to a dome shape, and may be, for example, a bullet shape.

[0012] (Imaging device holding part 20) The imaging device holding part 20 has a frame part 21, a pair of rising parts 23, and a bracket 25. The frame part 21 is a housing that holds the imaging part 101. The frame part 21 has a main surface 30 and a pair of opposing rising parts 23. As shown in FIG. 1, the main surface 30 has an opening 22. In the present embodiment, the rising parts 23 are raised on a set of opposite sides of the rectangular main surface 30. As shown in FIG. 4, the rising parts 23 may have an opening 24.

[0013] A bracket 25 is fixed to the rising portion 23. Multiple brackets 25 may be provided on the imaging device holder 20. For example, they may be provided on the bottom and back surfaces of the imaging device holder 20. When a bracket 25 is provided on the back surface of the imaging device holder 20, the bracket 25 is spanned across opposing rising portions 23. In this embodiment, the bracket 25 provided on the back surface of the imaging device holder 20 will be described as bracket 25-1, and the bracket 25 provided on the bottom surface of the imaging device holder 20 will be described as bracket 25-2. For fixing the bracket 25, for example, a bolt 26 can be used. To facilitate fixing the bracket 25 to the rising portion 23, one end of the rising portion 23 may be bent to form a surface on the rising portion 23 that is parallel to the bracket 25 spanned across it.

[0014] The bracket 25 is a C-shaped (U-shaped) steel profile and has a web portion 27 and a pair of flange portions 28. Bolt holes 29 are provided in the flange portions 28.

[0015] (Imaging device mounting section 40) Figure 6 is a front view of the imaging device mounting section 40, Figure 7 is a right side view, Figure 8 is a top view, and Figure 9 is a bottom view. The imaging device mounting section 40 has a bracket 41. The bracket 41 is a C-shaped steel profile and has a web section 42 and a pair of flange sections 43 rising from the web section 42. Bolt holes 44 are provided in the flange sections 43. The bolt holes 44 are provided in a size and position corresponding to the bolt holes 29 of the flange section 28.

[0016] The imaging device mounting section 40 has a magnetic section 45 as a means for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B to be mounted. The magnetic section 45 is fixed to the web section 42 of the bracket 41. The magnetic section 45 is fixed to the web section 42 by means of, for example, adhesive or bolts. In this embodiment, the magnetic section 45 is fixed to the web section 42 via bolts 48. The magnetic section 45 has a permanent magnet such as a ferrite magnet or a neodymium magnet. The imaging device mounting section 40 is detachably attached to the object B to be mounted by the magnetic section 45. The object B to be mounted is, for example, a steel column or beam of a building under construction.

[0017] The magnet section 45 may be equipped with a switch 46. The imaging device mounting section 40 may be detachable from the object B by operating the switch 46. The magnet section 45 may be configured to control the supply of power to the electromagnet by operating the switch 46, or to control the flow of magnetic force by operating the switch 46. By providing a switch 46 on the magnet section 45, the imaging device mounting section 40 can be easily detached from the object B by operating the switch 46.

[0018] Multiple magnetic units 45 may be provided on the web unit 42, or only one may be provided. In this embodiment, the magnetic units 45 will be described as being provided on both ends of the web unit 42 in the longitudinal direction.

[0019] When attaching the magnet portion 45 to the web portion 42 using a bolt 48, it is advisable to provide a rotation stopper 49 that rises perpendicularly to the web portion 42 on the lower side of the web portion 42 (the side where the flange portion 43 is not raised) to prevent the magnet portion 45 from rotating when the bolt 48 is tightened. This allows the magnet portion 45 to be attached in the desired orientation. The rotation stopper 49 may be formed as a U-shaped member, for example, and attached to the web portion 42 via a bolt or the like.

[0020] (Installation method) A method for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B using the mounting bracket 10 will be described. Figure 10 shows the imaging device 100 attached to the object B using the mounting bracket 10. In the following description, the object B will be assumed to be a steel column of a building under construction.

[0021] First, the operator attaches the imaging device holder 20 to the imaging device 100. The housing 102 is placed between the main surface 30 and the rising portion 23 of the imaging device holder 20, and the imaging unit 101 is attached to the front of the main surface 30. The cable connecting the control unit inside the housing 102 and the imaging unit 101 is passed through the opening 22. The housing 102 may be fixed to the main surface 30 or the rising portion 23 with bolts or the like.

[0022] Next, the worker connects the imaging device mounting section 40 and the imaging device holding section 20. The bracket 41 of the imaging device mounting section 40 is placed over the bracket 25 of the imaging device holding section 20, and the bolt holes 29 and 44 are aligned. The imaging device mounting section 40 and the imaging device holding section 20 are connected by inserting the bolts 47 through the bolt holes 29 and 44.

[0023] Next, the worker places the imaging device mounting section 40, to which the imaging device 100 is attached, against the steel column, which is the object to be mounted B. If the magnet section 45 is equipped with a switch 46, the worker operates the switch 46. Then, due to the attractive force of the magnet section 45, the imaging device mounting section 40 is attached to the steel column. In this way, the imaging device 100 is attached to the steel column, i.e., the object to be mounted B.

[0024] When removing the imaging device 100 from the steel column, sufficient force should be applied to the imaging device 100 to detach the magnet section 45 from the steel column. If the magnet section 45 is equipped with a switch 46, the switch 46 should be operated to detach the imaging device mounting section 40 from the object B to which it is attached.

[0025] (effect) The effects of the mounting bracket 10 will now be explained. The imaging device 100, which is attached to the mounting object B via the mounting bracket 10, can be removed from the mounting object B without the use of tools. In other words, by using the mounting bracket 10, the imaging device 100 can be easily removed from the mounting object B. Therefore, the mounting bracket 10 offers excellent workability.

[0026] If the imaging device 100 is a dome-shaped camera, as shown in Figure 10, the field of view of the imaging device 100 can be widened by mounting the imaging device 100 and the imaging device holder 20 perpendicular to the mounting object B, which is a steel column. In this mounting position, the bracket 25-1 on the back of the imaging device holder 20 supports the load of the imaging device 100 and the imaging device holder 20, and the deflection on the imaging device holder 20 can be reduced.

[0027] Furthermore, if the imaging device 100 is a bullet-shaped camera, the field of view of the imaging device 100 can be widened by mounting the imaging device 100 and the imaging device holder 20 in a position parallel to the mounting object B, which is a steel column. In this case, the bracket 25-1 is connected to the imaging device mounting part 40. Also, when the imaging device 100, which is a dome-shaped camera, is mounted on a beam of a building, the bracket 25-1 is connected to the imaging device mounting part 40.

[0028] In this way, the mounting bracket 10 can attach the imaging device 100 to the object B regardless of the orientation or mounting position of the imaging device 100, and offers excellent workability. The mounting bracket 10 is also suitable when attaching the imaging device 100 to locations with poor workability, such as beams in buildings.

[0029] Bracket 25-1 and bracket 25-2 may be connected by an L-shaped receiving bracket 31. The receiving bracket 31 can reduce the deflection on the imaging device holding part 20 whether the imaging device 100 is mounted perpendicularly or parallel to the object B to be mounted.

[0030] A long hole 32 may be provided in the flange portion 28 of bracket 25-1, and a string-like member such as a wire may be passed through the long hole 32 and tied to a beam or the like, thereby enabling support for the imaging device 100 attached to the mounting object B. Alternatively, a long hole 33 may be provided in either bracket 25-1 or bracket 25-2, allowing connection between the mounting object B and the imaging device holder 20 using a connector such as a hose clamp. In this way, the bracket 25 of the imaging device holder 20 offers excellent expandability, contributing to the ease of use of the mounting fixture 10.

[0031] The imaging device holder 20 and the imaging device mounting part 40 can be easily connected by passing a bolt 47 through them. Since the bolt 47 is passed through the sides of the bracket 25 and bracket 41, the imaging device mounting part 40 can be easily attached even after the imaging device holder 20 has been attached to the imaging device 100, resulting in excellent workability. In addition, since the bolt 47 does not pierce the imaging device 100, there is no risk of the housing 102 of the imaging device 100 being damaged by the bolt 47.

[0032] The imaging device holder 20 is made lighter by providing an opening 24 in the rising portion 23. The imaging device holder 20 is also lighter because the bracket 25 is not made of solid material. Lighter weight is also achieved by not providing a plate material such as the main surface 30 on the back of the imaging device holder 20, and instead placing the bracket 25 across the rising portion 23. The imaging device mounting portion 40 is also lighter because the bracket 41 is not made of solid material.

[0033] Thanks to these design features, the imaging device 100, with the imaging device holder 20 and imaging device mounting part 40 attached, can be easily lifted to a high position and mounted to the object B at a high position. In this way, the mounting device 10 offers excellent workability.

[0034] Since the imaging device holder 20 and the imaging device mounting part 40 are connected by flange parts 43 and 28, the distance between the magnetic surface of the magnet part 45 and the imaging device 100 is wide. Therefore, when removing the imaging device 100 from the object B to which it is attached, a wide distance can be secured between the point of application of the force for removal and the magnetic surface of the magnet part 45. The imaging device mounting part 40 can be easily removed by lever principle.

[0035] Furthermore, by providing the magnet section 45 at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the web section 42, the distance between the housing 102, which houses the control unit of the imaging device 100, and the magnet section 45 can be maintained. Similarly, by connecting the imaging device holding section 20 and the imaging device mounting section 40 with flange sections 43 and 28, the distance between the housing 102 and the magnet section 45 can be increased. This prevents interference of the magnetic field generated by the magnet section 45 with the imaging device 100.

[0036] Furthermore, by providing the magnet section 45 at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the web section 42, the imaging device 100 can be attached to the mounting object B so as to straddle the protruding parts of horizontal members such as beams and braces. In this case, by interposing a plate-shaped or cylindrical member between the bracket 41 and the magnet section 45, the height of the imaging device mounting section 40 can be adjusted to match the height of the horizontal member. In this way, the mounting fixture 10 can be attached to a variety of mounting objects B and offers excellent workability.

[0037] Furthermore, the means for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B in the imaging device mounting section 40 may be a single-pipe clamp or the like, instead of a magnet. The means for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B can be appropriately changed according to the shape and material of the object B.

[0038] (Second embodiment) A second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. The mounting fixture 10A has an imaging device holding part 20 and an imaging device mounting part 60. The mounting fixture 10A can attach the imaging device 100 to the object B to be mounted.

[0039] (Imaging device mounting section 60) The imaging device mounting section 60 has a first profile 61. Figure 11 is a front view of the first profile 61 of the mounting fixture 10A, Figure 12 is a right side view, and Figure 13 is a top view. The first profile 61 has a web section 62, a flange section 64 rising from the web section 62, and a claw section 66 extending from the web section 62.

[0040] The flange portion 64 has bolt holes 65. The bolt holes 65 are provided in a size and position corresponding to the bolt holes 29 of the flange portion 28 in the imaging device holding portion 20.

[0041] The first profile 61 has claw portions 66 as means for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B. Figure 14 is an enlarged view of the claw portion 66. The claw portion 66 protrudes from the side opposite to the side on which the flange portion 64 of the web portion 62 is raised. The claw portions 66 are provided at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the web portion 62. The claw portion 66 has a connecting portion 67 and an engaging piece 68. The connecting portion 67 is bent on the side opposite to the side on which the flange portion 64 of the web portion 62 is raised. The connecting portion 67 extends from the web portion 62 and connects the web portion 62 and the engaging piece 68. In a side view of the first profile 61, a gap S is provided between the web portion 62 and the engaging piece 68. The gap S is ensured to be greater than or equal to the plate thickness of the web portion 72 of the second profile 71, which will be described later. The engaging piece 68 protrudes from one side in the longitudinal direction of the web portion 62. The engaging pieces 68 of the multiple claw portions 66 all protrude in the same direction.

[0042] The imaging device mounting section 60 has a second profile 71. Figure 15 is a front view of the second profile 71, Figure 16 is a right side view, and Figure 17 is a top view. The second profile 71 has a web section 72 and a pair of flange sections 73 rising from the web section 72. The web section 72 has bolt holes 80. The flange section 73 has a rising section 74, a wing section 75, and a bent section 76. The rising section 74 and the wing section 75 are connected by the bent section 76. The flange section 73 is bent at the bent section 76 and each is expanded. The rising section 74 is provided to be approximately perpendicular to the web section 72. The wing section 75 is provided to be approximately parallel to the web section 72. The rising section 74 has a height of at least the height H of the engaging piece 68.

[0043] The blade portion 75 has grooves 77. The grooves 77 are holes provided in the blade portion 75. The grooves 77 may have large grooves 78 and small grooves 79 of different sizes. The small grooves 79 have a width greater than or equal to the plate thickness of the engaging piece 68. The large grooves 78 have a wider width than the small grooves 79.

[0044] (Installation method) A method for attaching the imaging device 100 to the object B using the mounting bracket 10A will be described. Figure 18 shows the imaging device 100 attached to the object B using the imaging device 10A. In the following description, the object B will be assumed to be a steel column of a building under construction.

[0045] First, the operator attaches the imaging device holder 20 to the imaging device 100. The method for attaching the imaging device holder 20 to the imaging device 100 is the same as in the first embodiment, so it is omitted here.

[0046] Next, the worker connects the imaging device mounting section 60 and the imaging device holding section 20. The bracket 61 of the imaging device mounting section 60 is placed over the bracket 25 of the imaging device holding section 20, and the bolt holes 29 and 65 are aligned. The imaging device mounting section 60 and the imaging device holding section 20 are connected by inserting the bolts 47 through the bolt holes 29 and 65. The holes 44 of the imaging device mounting section 60 and the holes 29 of the imaging device holding section 20 are aligned, the bolts 47 are inserted, and the sections are secured with nuts as appropriate, thereby connecting the imaging device mounting section 60 and the imaging device holding section 20.

[0047] Next, the worker attaches the second profile 71 to the object B. The second profile 71 is placed against the steel column, which is the object B, and bolts are driven into the bolt holes 80 of the web portion 72 to fix the second profile 71 to the object B.

[0048] Next, the worker lifts the imaging device 100 and hooks the claw portion 66 of the first profile 61 into the groove portion 77 of the second profile 71. Each engaging piece 68 is passed through the large groove portion 78 and then fitted into the small groove portion 79. In this way, the imaging device 100 is attached to the object B.

[0049] When removing the imaging device 100 from the steel column, the imaging device 100 is lifted, each engaging piece 68 is detached from the small groove 79, and then removed from the large groove 78. In this way, the imaging device 100 can be removed from the mounting object B without using any other tools.

[0050] When removing the imaging device 100 from the mounting object B, the second profile 71 may also be removed from the mounting object B as needed. If the mounting object B is a work platform or the like, the second profile 71 does not necessarily need to be removed when dismantling. The second profile 71 may also be left attached to the mounting object B when temporarily removing the imaging device 100 due to bad weather or other reasons. The second profile 71 may also be left attached to the mounting object B for the next time it is used. The first profile 61 may also be left attached to the imaging device holder 20.

[0051] (effect) The effects of the mounting bracket 10A are explained below. The imaging device 100, which is attached to the mounting object B via the mounting bracket 10A, can be removed from the mounting object B without using any tools. In other words, by using the mounting bracket 10A, the imaging device 100 can be easily removed from the mounting object B. The imaging device 100 is attached to the mounting object B by being hooked onto the second profile 71 via the first profile 61. By lifting the imaging device 100, it can be easily removed from the mounting object B. Therefore, the mounting bracket 10A offers excellent workability.

[0052] Since the imaging device mounting section 60 does not use magnets to fix it to the object B, it can be attached even if the object B is not made of sufficiently thick steel. For this reason, the imaging device mounting section 60 is suitable for use in buildings, for example, made of lightweight steel.

[0053] As shown in Figure 18, by making the rising portion 74 of the second profile 71 the same length as the length L of the engaging piece 68, the engaging piece 68 comes into contact with the object B when the imaging device 100 is attached to the object B. This suppresses rattling and vibration of the imaging device 100 when it is attached.

[0054] By providing a large groove 78 in the groove 77, the engaging piece 68 can be easily passed through and removed. This allows the imaging device 100 to be easily attached to and detached from the second profile 71. Furthermore, by providing a narrow groove 79 in the groove 77, vibrations of the imaging device 100 can be suppressed when the imaging device 100 is attached to the mounting object B.

[0055] A fastener may be provided to prevent the imaging device 100 from lifting due to factors such as earthquakes, which could cause the first profile 61 and the second profile 71 to become disengaged. For example, as shown in Figure 19, a bolt hole 90 is provided in the web portion 62 of the first profile 61, and a bolt is driven into the web portion 72 of the second profile 71. The bolt acts as a fastener, preventing the first profile 61 and the second profile 71 from becoming disengaged. A hole may also be provided in the web portion 72 to allow the bolt to catch.

[0056] Although the present invention has been specifically described above based on embodiments, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and can be modified in various ways without departing from its essence.

[0057] The materials of brackets 25 and 41 do not necessarily have to be metal. Other materials that can support the weight of the imaging device 100, such as wood, aluminum, or plastic, can also be selected. The same applies to the first profile 61 and the second profile 71.

[0058] In the embodiments described above, bolts were used to connect the imaging device holder 20 and the imaging device mounting part 40, and to connect the imaging device holder 20 and the first profile 61. However, these may be connected by other methods. For example, they may be connected by a claw-and-groove fitting structure or a hook structure.

[0059] In the embodiments described above, the imaging device 100 and the imaging device holder 20 were described as separate entities, but the imaging device 100 and the imaging device holder 20 may be integrated. The frame portion 21 may be the housing 102 of the imaging device 100. Figure 20 shows an example of an imaging device 100A equipped with a flange portion 28. Using such an imaging device 100, the imaging device mounting portion 40 and the imaging device mounting portion 60 may be attached to the housing 102.

[0060] The mounting bracket according to the present invention can also be used for photographic equipment that is not for construction management. Mounting bracket 10 or mounting bracket 10A may be used for photographic equipment used to monitor material storage areas or fields. [Explanation of symbols]
