Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional gimbal devices for photographing terminals are bulky, making them inconvenient to carry and hindering miniaturization efforts.
Innovation Solution
A compact driving mechanism assembly integrated into the photographing terminal, featuring a first driving member with a housing, stator, and rotor, and a camera module positioned within the rotor to face outward, allowing for reduced volume and enhanced portability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the photographing terminal is clamped on the gimbal and directly driven by the motor to rotate, then image stabilization capability is achieved, but the overall volume becomes too large
Solution Approach 1:
The camera module is integrated directly into the rotor of the driving member, merging the camera housing with the motor rotor structure. This eliminates the need for separate camera mounting brackets and reduces the overall volume while maintaining the image stabilization function through direct motor-driven rotation.
Solution Approach 2:
The camera module is nested within the hollow rotor structure, placing the camera inside the rotating component rather than mounting it externally. This nested arrangement充分利用 the internal space of the rotor, reducing the external dimensions of the gimbal device while preserving the stabilization capability.
2Ease of operation
If a conventional gimbal structure is used with separate motor and camera module, then driving function is achieved, but portability is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The motor and camera module are merged into a single integrated assembly where the camera is mounted on the rotor. This reduces the number of separate components and simplifies the overall structure, making the device more portable and easier to handle while maintaining full driving and stabilization functionality.
