The direction of the recessed structure of the outer cover may be the inner direction of the outer cover. The recessed structure (25a) of the outer cover will be described later in FIG. 4.

[0043] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing a side view of a ship camera module according to the present invention.

[0044] More specifically, FIG. 4 illustrates a left side view of a ship camera module (100). Since the ship camera module (100) has a symmetrical structure, the description of the right side view of the ship camera module (100) can be applied identically to the description of the left side view of the ship camera module (100). Referring to FIG. 4, the ship camera module (100) according to the present invention can be divided into an outer cover part (40A), a main body part (40B), and a power supply part (40C).

[0045] The outer cover portion (40A) constitutes the surface of the ship camera module (100) that is visible to a user when the ship camera module (100) is installed on a ship. The outer cover portion (40A) includes a camera for capturing images, an outer cover for protecting the camera from external impact, and a recessed structure (25a) of the outer cover for quickly discharging water that has entered the interior of the ship camera module (100) to the drain (24a) of FIG. 3. In particular, the recessed structure (25a) of the outer cover is a structure formed on the lower part of the outer cover and has a structural feature of being concave rather than convex like the upper part of the outer cover, so that water that has entered inwardly into the ship camera module (100) does not remain stagnant inside the outer cover for a long time and can be quickly discharged to the drain (24a) of FIG. 3.

[0046] The main body (40B) includes various modules for supporting the operation of the camera included in the outer cover (40A) and a main body that encloses the various modules in a single housing.

In particular, the recessed structure (25a) of the outer cover not only increases the discharge speed of incoming water as described above, but also serves the function of not obstructing the shooting view when the camera of the outer cover part (40A) rotates downward to start shooting. The rotation limiting angle of the camera of the outer cover part (40A) may be 0 degrees to -30 degrees. That is, since the camera does not rotate beyond 0 degrees, the upper part of the outer cover is not formed with a recessed structure unlike the lower part of the outer cover.

[0050] FIG. 5(b) illustrates the result of observing the ship camera module (100) from a different direction than FIG. 5(a). Referring to FIG. 5(b), it can be seen that a drain (24a) is also formed on the upper part of the outer cover of the ship camera module (100). Since the ship camera module (100) according to the present invention has drains (24a) formed on the upper and lower parts respectively, even if the ship camera module (100) is installed upside down on the ship according to the user's preference, water flowing in toward the inner side of the outer cover can be smoothly drained through the drain (24a).

For example, the camera member (11) ensures that the camera (6) is well housed in the bracket (15), so that the camera (6) can also rotate in the up and down direction according to the up and down movement of the bracket (15).

[0056] The power supply unit (14) is electrically connected to the camera (6) to supply power to the camera (6), and the power supply cable (14-2) is a cable for receiving power from a power source such as a generator of a ship.

[0057] The bracket (15) can perform the function of housing the camera (6) and receiving it in the main body (17).

[0058] The main body (17) can accommodate the camera (6) and various modules related to the camera (6) by being combined with the outer cover (2) to surround the camera (6). On the front of the main body (17), at least one fastening hole is formed to which the outer cover fastening member (22a) is fastened when combined with the aforementioned outer cover (2). Additionally, on the back of the main body (17), at least one fastening hole is formed to which the aforementioned main body fastening member (22b) is fastened.

[0059] The main body fixing member (19) is positioned on the rear of the main body (17) to prevent excessive movement of the main body (17) and to allow the ship camera module (100) to be smoothly inserted and installed in the ship's camera module insertion space.

[0060] Figure 7 is a drawing for explaining the coupling characteristics of the bracket and the main body of a marine camera module.

[0061] In the present invention, the bracket (15) is a member for housing the camera (6) and receiving it in the main body (17), and includes an angle adjustment part (15-1) that allows the camera (6) to rotate in the up and down direction through the through hole of the outer cover (2).
