Movable Bracket Pivoting Mechanism for Camera Angle Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional surveillance camera brackets are inflexible in terms of angle adjustment and installation, making it difficult to achieve desired monitoring angles and are complex to operate, especially for bullet cameras which require rotation and cannot be directly screwed onto walls or ceilings.
Innovation Solution
A movable bracket comprising a fixing component, a covering component, a movable component, and a fastening ring, which allows for adjustable pivoting and rotation of the camera body, enabling easy adjustment of the monitoring range and simplifying the installation process by using a pivoting space and adjusting groove mechanism.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional bracket is used for bullet camera installation, then the camera can be mounted on wall or ceiling, but the angle adjustment is limited and the installation process is complex
Solution Approach 1:
The bracket is divided into separate functional components: a fixing component for wall/ceiling mounting, a movable component for camera attachment, and a fastening ring for securing. This segmentation allows independent optimization of each part's function while simplifying the overall installation process.
Solution Approach 2:
The bracket incorporates a movable component that can pivot and rotate relative to the fixing component, enabling dynamic angle adjustment. The movable component includes a pivotal part that rotates within a pivoting space, providing flexible positioning capabilities while maintaining structural integrity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a bullet camera is installed on a conventional bracket, then the monitoring range can be enlarged through rotation, but the bracket can only be attached in fewer angle configurations
Solution Approach 1:
The movable component is designed to pivot and rotate freely within the pivoting space formed by the covering component, enabling continuous angle adjustment rather than discrete configurations. This dynamic mechanism allows the camera to be positioned at any desired angle while maintaining secure attachment.
Solution Approach 2:
The movable component acts as an intermediary between the fixed bracket and the camera, providing a mechanism that translates rotational motion into adjusted monitoring angles. The pivotal part of the movable component mediates the rotation, allowing smooth angle changes while the fastening ring secures the final position.
3Reliability
If the conventional bracket installation process is used, then the bracket can be fixed to the wall, but the process is too complex to be conveniently operated by a user
Solution Approach 1:
The installation process is segmented into simple steps: attach the fixing component to the wall, attach the camera to the movable component, and secure everything with the fastening ring. Each component has a dedicated function, making the installation process intuitive and easy to follow without requiring complex procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The fastening ring is designed to be operated by the user without special tools or complex procedures. The user simply attaches the fastening ring to secure the movable component to the fixing component, and the system self-secures through the interlocking mechanism of the screwing part and pressing part.

AI summary
A movable bracket includes a fixing component, a covering component, a movable component and a fastening ring. The fixing component includes a main body, a first interposing part and a first screwing part. The first interposing part and the first screwing part are located at the main body. The covering component includes a second interposing part and a first pressing part. The covering component covers the first interposing part to form a pivoting space between the first interposing part and the second interposing part. The covering component has an adjusting groove connected to the pivoting space. The movable component includes a pivotal part and an assembling part that are opposite. The movable component passes through the adjusting groove. The fastening ring includes a ring body, a second pressing part and a second screwing part. The second pressing part is connected to the ring body surrounding the main body.
