Adjustable Doorbell Mounting Seat for Two-Axis Camera Alignment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional doorbell mounting seats restrict the adjustability of the doorbell's angle and camera field, limiting installation flexibility and camera alignment with mounting surfaces.
Innovation Solution
A mounting seat with an extendable portion that allows the doorbell to be adjusted along two non-parallel axes, enabling the camera angle to be adjusted by extending or retracting sections, thereby allowing for arbitrary and proper adjustment of the camera's field of view.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the camera is disposed on the main body of the outdoor device with a fixed mounting seat, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the angle and field of the camera are fixed, limiting installation flexibility and camera alignment
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting seat transitions from a fixed structure to a dynamic adjustable structure. The extendable portion can be extended or retracted along the first and second non-parallel axes, allowing the doorbell and camera to be positioned at various angles and orientations to adapt to different installation surfaces and requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting seat is divided into distinct functional portions: a mounting portion for wall attachment, an extendable portion with first and second extendable sections for angular adjustment, and a connecting portion for doorbell attachment. This segmentation allows independent adjustment along two non-parallel axes while maintaining structural integrity.
2Manufacturing precision
If the mounting seat is fixed, then the manufacturing precision requirement is low, but the camera angle cannot be adjusted to fulfill required demands
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting seat incorporates an extendable portion that enables dynamic angular adjustment of the camera after installation. This allows precise camera angle alignment to be achieved in the field by extending or retracting the first and second extendable sections along non-parallel axes, rather than requiring precise pre-manufacturing of fixed angles.

AI summary
A mounting seat is connected to a doorbell includes a mounting portion, an extendable portion, and a connecting portion. The mounting portion is connected to a mounting surface. The extendable portion is connected to the mounting portion. The extendable portion could be extended or retracted by exerting force. The extendable portion includes a first extendable section and a second extendable section. The connecting portion is connected between the extendable portion and the doorbell. When the first extendable section is extended or retracted relative to the mounting portion, the extendable portion drives the connecting portion and the doorbell to turn along a first axis. When the second extendable section is extended or retracted relative to the mounting portion, the extendable portion drives the connecting portion and the doorbell to turn along a second axis. The first axis is not parallel to the second axis.
