Dome Surveillance Camera Mounting With Pre-Assembled Screw Cover
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing mounting process for dome type surveillance cameras requires time-consuming steps of removing and re-screwing a fixing screw, which is cumbersome and unsafe when performed at high places like ceilings.
Innovation Solution
A method involving an integrally assembled camera body with a decorative cover that covers fixing screws without the need for re-screwing, using a decorative cover with tongues that engage with the installation side case to secure the camera body to the surface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the fixing screw is removed and re-screwed to mount the camera body, then the camera can be securely fixed to the installation surface, but the installation process becomes time-consuming and complex
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing screw is pre-inserted into the installation side case before mounting the camera body. This preliminary action eliminates the need to remove and re-screw the fixing screw during installation, reducing installation time while maintaining secure fixation.
Solution Approach 2:
The camera body is divided into separable components (installation side case, enclosure, decorative cover) that can be assembled in a predetermined state. The fixing screw is integrated into the installation side case structure, allowing the camera body to be mounted as a complete unit without disassembling fastening components.
2Reliability
If the fixing screw is removed and re-screwed during mounting, then the camera body can be securely attached, but the number of installation steps increases
Solution Approach 1:
The fixing screw, installation side case, and camera body are combined into an integrally assembled unit. The fixing screw is permanently integrated into the installation side case structure, merging the fastening function with the mounting structure to eliminate separate removal and re-screwing steps.
Solution Approach 2:
The camera body components are assembled in a predetermined state with the fixing screw already in place before installation. This preliminary assembly reduces the installation process to simple mounting steps without requiring complex disassembly and reassembly operations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If installation operations are performed at high places like ceilings, then the camera can be mounted in optimal positions, but safety risks increase due to cumbersome operations
Solution Approach 1:
The camera body components are pre-assembled with the fixing screw in place before installation. This eliminates the need for workers to perform screw removal and re-screwing operations at high places, reducing installation time and safety risks while maintaining ceiling mounting capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The camera body is designed as separable components that can be assembled on the ground and then mounted as a complete unit. This segmentation allows the complex assembly operations to be performed safely at ground level, with only the simple mounting step requiring work at elevation.

AI summary
A method for mounting a surveillance camera includes: attaching a camera body, in which a camera, an installation side case, an enclosure, and a dome cover are integrally assembled, by inserting a fixing screw through a fixing screw through hole formed in the installation side case and screwing the fixing screw into an installation surface; and inserting the dome cover and the enclosure through an inner diameter hole of a cylindrical decorative cover, covering the fixing screw, and attaching the decorative cover to an outer periphery of the camera body
