Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional mounting assemblies are used for heavier cameras, then the mounting structure is simple, but the reliability is low and the camera is prone to loosening and shaking
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting assembly is divided into multiple functional components: a mounting base with mounting cavity, multiple pre-hanging members extending into the cavity, and multiple fasteners. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function, with the pre-hanging members providing initial positioning and the fasteners securing the connection, thereby improving overall reliability without creating an overly complex integrated structure
Solution Approach 2:
The pre-hanging members are pre-installed and extend into the mounting cavity before the camera is mounted. This preliminary action provides initial positioning and support for the camera, ensuring proper alignment and reducing the risk of loosening during operation. The fasteners are then added to complete the secure connection, maintaining reliability while keeping the assembly process straightforward
2Stability of the object's composition
If conventional mounting assemblies are used, then the assembly process is simple, but the mounting is unstable in vibrating environments
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting base features a specifically designed mounting cavity with multiple pre-hanging members positioned at different locations within the cavity. This local differentiation allows the pre-hanging members to engage with corresponding features on the camera at optimal positions, providing stable support and resistance to vibration. The fasteners are positioned to apply clamping force at critical locations, enhancing stability without complicating the overall assembly process
3Reliability
If heavier cameras are mounted with conventional assemblies, then the camera weight is supported, but the mounting is prone to loosening
Solution Approach 1:
The pre-hanging members extend into the mounting cavity and are positioned to counteract the gravitational force on the heavier camera. By providing upward support forces through the pre-hanging members and securing them with fasteners, the assembly creates a balanced force system that prevents loosening. The multiple pre-hanging members distribute the weight-bearing function, improving anti-loosening performance while supporting heavier camera weights

AI summary
The disclosure provides a camera mounting assembly and a camera. The camera mounting assembly includes: a mounting base and a mounting head; the mounting base includes a mounting cavity, an enclosure wall, and multiple pre-hanging members and multiple fasteners that are penetrated through the enclosure wall, the multiple pre-hanging members remain relatively fixed to the enclosure wall, and extend into the mounting cavity, the multiple fasteners are movably disposed in the enclosure wall; the mounting head is inserted into the mounting cavity, and includes multiple mounting grooves that are matched with the multiple pre-hanging members in one-to-one correspondence, and first groove bodies, the mounting grooves extend along an insertion direction, the multiple pre-hanging members enter the first groove bodies through the mounting grooves corresponding to the multiple pre-hanging members respectively, and are hung to the mounting head in the first groove bodies, and the multiple fasteners can abut against the mounting head when extending into the mounting cavity, so that the mounting head is clamped and fixed to the mounting base. The camera includes a camera body and the above-mentioned camera mounting assembly. One of the mounting base and the mounting head is disposed on the top of the camera body.
