Embodiment
In the following description, introduced a kind of hereinafter thief-proof supervising device of described multiple advantage that has.
§1.1
Thief-proof supervising device is provided with a linkage unit and a warning device.The predetermined surface of linkage unit links to each other with the monitoring objective article.More particularly, linkage unit is connected on the monitoring objective article, so that the predetermined surface of linkage unit is towards article.This of linkage unit is called as " connecting the surface " below predetermined surface.
Linkage unit comprises a detecting element that is used to detect the connection status of linkage unit and monitoring objective article, that is to say that this detecting element is used to detect linkage unit and whether links to each other with article.Linkage unit can also comprise a hollow housing (case), and in this case, at least a portion detecting element can be set in the housing.
Detecting element can be a switch as described below.This switch has a movable part and a contact.According to the position of movable part, more particularly according to the position of movable part with respect to Switch main body, the contact can be in selectively opens or closure state.Movable part is pressed towards the outside that connects the surface, and usually, movable part is pressed the outside of pushing connect the surface to.Connect the surface the outside and inboard refer to respectively when linkage unit and article are continuous approaching or away from the sidepiece that is connected the surface of article.
Movable part for example can be pressed towards the outside that connects the surface by elastic component.Elastic component can be spring or the rubber component such as disc spring or leaf spring (flat spring).Movable part can be for shaft-like, and can be configured to and can rectilinearity move between the inboard that connects the surface and the outside.In addition, movable part can be configured to and can rotate around a predetermined axial line between the inboard that connects the surface and the outside.
When movable part is pushed to the inboard that connects the surface so that movable part is positioned at or when being positioned at normal place inboard (reference position), the contact of switch is in closure state.On the other hand, when movable part was positioned at the outside of normal place or normal place, the contact of switch was in open mode.When linkage unit was linked to each other with article, movable part was pushed to the inboard that connects the surface by article, and makes movable part be positioned at the inboard of normal place so that the closing of contact of switch thus.When the linkage unit that links to each other with article thus when the monitoring objective article are removed, the power of movable part being pushed to connect to the inboard on surface no longer acts on the movable part, movable part can be shifted to the outside of normal place or normal place under the effect of pressure like this, and the contact of switch is opened.According to these, whether switch can detect linkage unit and link to each other with the monitoring objective article.
Except that above-mentioned this switch, detecting element can be an optical sensor, and when linkage unit linked to each other with article, this sensor cover was to the monitoring objective article.Whether optical sensor for example can detect linkage unit in the following manner and link to each other with article.Linkage unit links to each other with article, and the light of optical sensor is accepted part and can be detected by the luminous component of optical sensor and launch and by the light of article surface reflection like this.If linkage unit is removed from article after linkage unit is connected on the article, luminous intensity, luminous quantity and the further feature of the light that is received by the light receiving unit of optical sensor will change, therefore, can detect the connection status of linkage unit by optical sensor.
Warning device is according to being given the alarm by the detected information of detecting element.More particularly, warning device gives the alarm according to the detection information that the expression linkage unit does not link to each other with article.The detection information that do not link to each other with article of expression linkage unit comprises represents that linkage unit removes the information of article wholly or in part, and can comprise the abnormal information of connection status of representing linkage unit and article, promptly, although linkage unit still links to each other with article partly, the situation that linkage unit still may shift out from article.At least remove detected element testing then when linkage unit from article, warning device can give the alarm.Even when detect linkage unit remove from article after linkage unit link to each other with article once more, warning device still can continue to give the alarm.If use switch as detecting element, warning device gives the alarm in the time of can being in open mode in the contact of switch at least.
The alarm that warning device sends can be sound, light and/or other.Warning device can comprise that one is sent hummer as the sound of alarm, one and sends as the lamp of the light of alarm and/or other.Alarm element such as hummer and lamp can be set at the linkage unit place.
§1.2
In thief-proof supervising device, linkage unit also comprises a first as described below.
The first of linkage unit is provided for linkage unit is connected on the monitoring objective article.The first of linkage unit can be coupled on the screw thread of article by spiral.This first is known as " threaded portion " hereinafter.
Have in the situation of a female screw at the monitoring objective article, be coupled to a pin thread on the female screw of article but the threaded portion of linkage unit is a spiral.Have in the situation of a pin thread at article, but the threaded portion of linkage unit is coupled to a female screw on the pin thread of article for spiral.
By with linkage unit the threaded portion threaded engagement or be threaded on the screw thread of article, linkage unit can be connected on the monitoring objective article.
Embodiment with article of screw thread can be camera (comprising digital camera) and video camera (comprising Digital Video), but is not limited in this.The camera of many types and camera all have screw thread (being generally female screw), and these screw threads are used for tripod is connected to camera or camera so that camera is play supporting role.Be coupled to threaded portion (being generally pin thread) on the screw thread of the camera that is provided for connecting tripod at first or camera if but linkage unit has spiral, linkage unit can link to each other with article (camera or camera) at an easy rate.In this case, thief-proof supervising device can be used to monitoring camera or camera.
Be coupled on the screw thread of above-mentioned monitoring objective article by the threaded portion spiral with linkage unit, linkage unit can be connected on the article, this makes linkage unit is linked to each other with article.Because linkage unit do not connect double-faced adhesive tape, so the connection of the linkage unit article of can not making dirty.Even linkage unit links to each other for a long time with article, the connection status or the situation of linkage unit and monitoring objective article also can change hardly.Even linkage unit links to each other with article once more after linkage unit is removed from article, linkage unit also can link to each other with the monitoring objective article and the situation that can not occur losing efficacy easily.Even linkage unit links to each other with article for several times and removes, linkage unit also can link to each other with the monitoring objective article and the situation that can not occur losing efficacy.Even when picking up article with hand, linkage unit also can be removed or separate hardly from the monitoring objective article.
Below, will be further described thief-proof supervising device.
(a) have under the situation of female screw when article, but the threaded portion of linkage unit can be coupled to pin thread (male screw portion) on the female screw part of above-mentioned article for spiral.
In this case, the pin thread of linkage unit has an aperture that extends along vertical (axis direction) of the pin thread of linkage unit, at least a portion as the above-mentioned switch of detecting element can be arranged in the aperture of pin thread, and in addition the movable part of switch can be formed in this aperture of pin thread movable.As mentioned above, when linkage unit linked to each other with article, movable part was pushed to the inboard on linkage unit surface by the bottom surface in the hole of the female screw of article, and thus, movable part can be positioned at the inboard of normal place.
As mentioned above, when linkage unit linked to each other with article, an end of the movable part of switch was positioned at the inboard of the threaded hole of article.
After linkage unit links to each other with the monitoring objective article, can eliminate such a case, that is, movable part is kept by a thin plate or similar articles, and thus, movable part can not move on to normal place or its outside.That is to say that can eliminate such a case, promptly movable part is held, does not open the contact of switch thus, and more particularly, warning device does not give the alarm thus.Like this, linkage unit can be detected by switch like clockwork with the connection status of monitoring objective.
In the movable part of switch as mentioned above is arranged on situation in the aperture of the pin thread of linkage unit, can also adopt at following (a1) or the structure of describing (a2) and other.
(a1) linkage unit can also comprise an extension rod together mobile with the movable part of switch, and when linkage unit linked to each other with article, movable part can be pushed to the inboard that connects the surface by extension rod.
The length of the movable part of switch on sale is not very long usually on the market, therefore in some cases, linkage unit links to each other with article under the very dark situation of the female threaded hole of article, and movable part can not be pushed to the inboard that connects the surface, and the contact of switch can not be closed in these cases thus.By adopting above-mentioned extension rod, even under the very dark situation of the threaded hole of article, movable part also can be pushed to the inboard that connects the surface by extension rod, thereby can make the closing of contact of switch.
Extension rod can be set at the end of movable part, so that it is towards article.Movable part and extension rod can interconnect directly or indirectly, and for example by jointing material, movable part and extension rod can together move mutually like this.
(a2) linkage unit can also comprise an elastic component that moves with the movable part of switch, and when linkage unit linked to each other with article, movable part can be pushed to the inboard that connects the surface by elastic component.
As mentioned above, because the rubber-like elastic component can expand according to the degree of depth of the threaded hole of article and compression, linkage unit can be used to have the multiple article of the threaded hole of different depth.
Elastic component can be a spring such as disc spring or rubber component.Elastic component can be set at the place, end of the movable part of switch, makes it face article.Movable part and elastic component for example can interconnect directly or indirectly by jointing material, and like this, movable part and elastic component can move mutually together.Be pressed towards the outside that connects the surface at movable part by spring (being called as first spring), and another second spring is set at together with movable part in the situation at linkage unit place, what the spring modulus of second spring can be than first spring is big.
(b) threaded portion at linkage unit is in the situation of pin thread, and the pin thread of linkage unit has along the aperture of the longitudinal extension of pin thread, and at least a portion switch can be set in the aperture of pin thread.
In said structure, switch itself can be configured to and can move in the aperture of the pin thread of linkage unit, and switch itself can be towards the outside biasing that connects the surface.Switch for example can be pressed towards the outside that connects the surface by an elastic component.This elastic component can be the spring such as disc spring and leaf spring or rubber component.When linkage unit linked to each other with article, the movable part of switch can directly be pushed to the inboard that connects the surface by article usually.
As mentioned above, because elastic component can expand according to the degree of depth of the threaded hole of article and compression, therefore, linkage unit can be used for multiple article with threaded hole of different depth.Be pressed towards the outside that connects the surface at the movable part of switch by spring (being called as first spring), and switch itself also by one second spring in the situation of the outside biasing that connects the surface, what the spring modulus of second spring can be than first spring is big.
(c) threaded portion of linkage unit can be screwed at the very start, and threaded portion can be coupled on the screw thread of article by spiral like this.
Replace, also can be when the threaded portion of linkage unit link to each other with article first, the threaded portion of the unit that is threaded by article forms screw thread, and like this, linkage unit just becomes and can link to each other with the screw thread of article.For this viewpoint, can think linkage unit threaded portion (first) but a part or a member of being threaded engagement to the article screw thread.As mentioned above, be coupled on the screw thread of article, linkage unit can be connected on the article, and the pitch of the screw thread of this and article and other are irrelevant by threaded portion spiral with linkage unit.
(d) said structure, mode and other can carry out applied in any combination.
§2
In the following description, the linkage unit that is applied in the thief-proof supervising device has been described.

§3
Below, preferred embodiment and the linkage unit to thief-proof supervising device is described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a kind of sectional view of structure that shows the embodiment of thief-proof supervising device.
Thief-proof supervising device A1 shown in Fig. 1 has warning device AD and linkage unit (coupling part) AU1.In this example, device A1 has two linkage unit AU1.
Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B are respectively the sectional view of linkage unit AU1.Fig. 3 is the exploded perspective view of linkage unit AU1.Some part of linkage unit is not shown in Figure 3.
Linkage unit AU1 can link to each other with G2 with article (monitoring objective article) G1 respectively, thereby monitors article in case it is stolen.
In the present embodiment, monitoring objective article G1 and G2 are respectively camera and camera.Camera G1 as monitoring objective has a female screw G1s, and this female screw is used for tripod (not shown) is connected to camera G1.Similarly, have a female screw G2s as the camera G2 of monitoring objective, this female screw is used for tripod (not shown) is connected to camera G2.As hereinafter describing in detail, linkage unit AU1 makes article link to each other with the monitoring objective article by the female screw that utilizes article.
Warning device AD gives the alarm according to the detected information of linkage unit AU1.As hereinafter describing in detail, for example when linkage unit AU1 when article are removed, warning device AD can give the alarm.The detection information of linkage unit AU1 is transported to alarm device AD by one from the extended electric wire 2 of linkage unit AU1.
Linkage unit AU1 has one and is used to detect the switch 3 whether linkage unit AU1 links to each other with the monitoring objective article.This switch 3 is arranged within the hollow housing 5.As shown in Figure 3, housing 5 is made of upper and lower housing parts 5u and 5b.When in the precalculated position of the inboard that switch 3 is set to lower case part 5b, upper and lower housing parts 5u and 5b are fixed together by a kind of jointing material.In the present embodiment, switch 3 is fixed among the lower case part 5b with a kind of jointing material.
When movable part 31 was positioned at preassigned position inboard, the contact 3c of switch 3 was in closure state.The inboard of normal place is the side near Switch main body 3b.When movable part 31 was positioned at normal place or be positioned at outside the normal place, the contact 3c of switch was in open mode.
The opposed end of the contact 3c of switch 3 links to each other with 322 with outside lead 321.The information of the opening of contact 3c-closure state is transported to warning device AD by the lead-in wire 21 and 22 of the electric wire 2 that links to each other with 322 with outside lead 321 respectively.
Linkage unit AU1 is provided with a threaded portion 4, and this threaded portion is used for linkage unit is linked to each other with monitoring objective article (referring to Fig. 2 A, 2B and other).The threaded portion 4 of linkage unit AU1 is pin threads, but this pin thread spiral is coupled on the female screw G1s of monitoring objective article G1.As mentioned above, screw thread G1s is used to make the same article of tripod (camera) G1 to link to each other originally.But threaded portion 4 also spiral is coupled on the female screw G2s of monitoring objective article G2.As mentioned above, it is continuous that this screw thread G2s is used to make the same article of tripod (camera) originally.
Go up (or on female screw G2s of article G2) by the female screw G1s that male screw portion 4 spirals is coupled to monitoring objective article G1, linkage unit AU1 can link to each other with the monitoring objective article.
Below, will the use-pattern of thief-proof supervising device A1 be described.
By male screw portion 4 spirals are coupled on the female screw part of monitoring objective article, two linkage unit AU1 are linked to each other respectively with G2 with monitoring objective article G1.In this operation, article are pushed the movable part 31 of the switch 3 of linkage unit AU1 the inboard of housing 5 to, and make the contact 3c of switch 3 be arranged on closure state thus.This state is referred to as original state.
In original state, the contact 3c of the switch 3 of each linkage unit AU1 is in closure state.In original state, warning device can not give the alarm.
From original state, if at least one linkage unit AU1 removes from the monitoring objective article, warning device gives the alarm with the following step.Because the pressure of spring 33, the movable part 31 of the linkage unit of removing from article is outstanding towards the outside of housing 5.Like this, when linkage unit AU1 when the monitoring objective article are removed or are pulled down, the contact 3c of the switch of the linkage unit AU1 that removes from article opens.As mentioned above, when linkage unit AU1 when the monitoring objective article are removed or are pulled down, the opening of the contact 3c of switch 3-closure state becomes open mode from closure state, this means that switch 3 has detected the connection status of linkage unit AU 1 with the monitoring objective article.
Be transported to warning device AD by the lead-in wire 21 and 22 of switch 3 detected information by electric wire 2.According to switch 3 detected information, warning device AD can give the alarm.When the contact of at least one linkage unit AU1 3c was in open mode, warning device AD can give the alarm.What in the present embodiment, warning device AD sent is the alarm of light and sound.Sound that sends thus and light can stop or eliminate the stolen phenomenon of containment article.The embodiment of a kind of circuit diagram of warning device AD below will be described.
In thief-proof supervising device A1, on the female screw part that male screw portion 4 spirals is coupled to the monitoring objective article, linkage unit AU1 is linked to each other with the monitoring objective article.Like this, linkage unit AU1 can link to each other with the monitoring objective article easily.Because linkage unit does not link to each other with article by double-faced adhesive tape as common mode, therefore, linkage unit AU1 can not make the monitoring objective article dirty.Even when linkage unit AU1 links to each other with the monitoring objective article for a long time, linkage unit also can change hardly with the connection status or the situation of article.Even when linkage unit after the monitoring objective article are removed, linkage unit AU1 also can link to each other with the monitoring objective article like clockwork once more.Even after linkage unit AU1 being linked to each other with the monitoring objective article remove again, linkage unit AU1 also can accurately link to each other with the monitoring objective article.Even when client handed the monitoring objective article, linkage unit AU1 also separated together with article hardly.
Because linkage unit AU1 cooperates by above-mentioned spiral to link to each other with the monitoring objective article, with by double-faced adhesive tape linkage unit is compared with the situation that the monitoring objective article link to each other, need spend the longer time that linkage unit AU1 is removed from article in order to steal the article thief.This can stop the thief to steal article, and this easier thief of awaring of salesman is removed linkage unit AU1 from article behavior.
§4
In the linkage unit AU1 of Fig. 2 A, the housing 5 of threaded portion 4 is members.In addition, linkage unit AU2 as shown in Figure 5 is such, is member independently but spiral is coupled to threaded portion 41 on the female screw G1s (or female screw G2s of article G2) of monitoring objective article G1 and housing.In the present embodiment, threaded portion 41 is fixed on the housing 5 by jointing material, and threaded portion 41 can not move or rotate with respect to housing 5 like this.
As the linkage unit AU3 shown in Fig. 6 A and Fig. 6 B, but the threaded portion 42 that spiral is coupled on the female screw G1s (the female screw G2s of article G2) of monitoring objective article G1 can be coupled on the female screw of article by spiral, and threaded portion 42 forms screw thread by the female screw part of article simultaneously.Like this, no matter article have what kind of pitch and other requirements, and threaded portion 42 can be coupled on the screw thread of article by spiral, and shown in Fig. 6 B, threaded portion 42 forms screw thread according to pitch and other requirements of article screw thread, and like this, linkage unit AU3 can link to each other with article.
§5
Another embodiment of linkage unit has been shown among Fig. 7 A and Fig. 7 B.
Show among the linkage unit AU4 at Fig. 7 A and Fig. 7 B, aperture 4a is arranged on male screw portion 4 along vertical (axis direction) of threaded portion 4.The part of the movable part 31 of switch 3 is arranged among the aperture 4a, and that movable part 31 is configured to is can be in aperture 4a movable.
Compare with the above-mentioned linkage unit AU1 of Fig. 2 A and 2B, the linkage unit AU4 of Fig. 7 A and 7b has following advantage.
In each of linkage unit AU1 and AU4, be provided with switch 3 and be used for detecting linkage unit and whether link to each other, and detect linkage unit when article are removed when switch 3 with the monitoring objective article, warning device AD gives the alarm.
Yet if there is the people to carry out the behavior of following malice, pulling down linkage unit from the monitoring objective article can not be detected by switch 3.
As shown in Figure 8, if a thin plate TP is inserted between linkage unit AU1 and the monitoring objective article G1, even when linkage unit when article are pulled down, the movable part 31 of switch 3 also can be maintained and can not give prominence to from housing 5 by thin plate TP, in other words, if movable part 31 is held, even thereby make linkage unit pull down from article, the contact 3c of switch 3 can not open yet, like this, after movable part was held as described above, even linkage unit is pulled down from article, switch 3 can not detect linkage unit AU1 and pull down from article.
Contrary to the above, when the linkage unit AU4 of Fig. 7 A and Fig. 7 B linked to each other with the monitoring objective article, the end of movable part 31 was positioned at the threaded hole G1h (or G2h) of article, and threaded portion 4 is round movable part 31.Like this, just can stop movable part 31 to be maintained and the contact of switch can not be opened, in other words, can not give the alarm by thin plate.Like this, whether the switch 3 of linkage unit AU4 just can more accurately detect linkage unit AU4 and link to each other with the monitoring objective article.
Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B show another embodiment of linkage unit.
In the linkage unit AU5 of Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B, an extension rod 34 is arranged on the place, end of the movable part 31 of switch 3.In the present embodiment, extension rod 34 and movable part 31 interfix by jointing material.Like this, movable part 31 and extension rod 34 can move together.Because extension rod 34 can together move along with movable part, therefore can think that extension rod 34 is parts of the movable part of switch 3.
In order to prevent that movable part from rupturing or for other purpose, the length of the movable part of switch on sale is not very long on the market.Therefore, in some cases, when linkage unit linked to each other with article, according to the degree of depth of threaded hole G1h (or G2h), movable part 31 can not reach the bottom surface of the threaded hole G1h (or G2h) of monitoring objective article G1 (or G2).Under the sort of situation, even linkage unit is with after the monitoring objective article link to each other, movable part 31 can not be pushed to the inboard of housing, and the contact of switch 3 can be closed thus.Like this, whether switch can not detect linkage unit and link to each other with article.
In above-mentioned situation or some other situation, the extended element that is provided with such as extension rod 34 by the end at movable part extends the length of movable part 31, and switch just can be used to have the article than the deep thread hole.
Except fix extension rod 34 and movable part 31 with jointing material, extension rod and movable part can interconnect by the removably mode such as spiral cooperates or cooperatively interact.Like this, by preparing a plurality of extension rods of all lengths, switch just can be used to have the article of the threaded hole of different depth.
§7

Figure 12 shows the embodiment of the circuit diagram of warning device AD.
The warning device AD of Figure 12 has hummer BZ1 can be used for alarm element and light emitting diode LP1 and according to a driving circuit of the information-driven alarm element that transports from linkage unit.
In Figure 12, linkage unit AU1 is applied linkage unit.
In the present embodiment, warning device AD has five cloudy web members 81, and each web member is used for and links to each other from the extended electric wire 2 of linkage unit AU1.End at electric wire 2 can be provided with the male connector (not shown) that an energy cooperates with cloudy web member 81, so that it links to each other with warning device AD, like this, electric wire 2 just can link to each other with warning device AD at an easy rate.One short-circuit line 82 links to each other with the web member 81 that is not connected electric wire 2.
In this warning device AD, the contact condition of the state of activation of relay coil RC and transistor Tr 1 is controlled according to the contact condition of each linkage unit AU1.Like this, the opening of relay contact RS1 and RS2-closure state can be controlled so as to that to apply voltage from power ps to alarm element controlled.Relay contact RS1 and RS2 can open or closure according to the state of activation of relay coil RC.Relay contact RS1 has three terminal RS1a, RS1b and RS1c.Terminal RS1c is a public terminal.Form a normally opened contact by terminal RS1a and RS1c, and formed a normally closed contact by terminal RS1b and RS1c.Relay contact RS2 is a normally opened contact.
For warning device AD is come into operation, each linkage unit AU1 links to each other with article, switch contact 3c closure like this, after this, a main switch MSW closure.In original state, transistor Tr 1 is closed, the TC un-activation of relay line chart and relay contact RS2 open.Like this, just do not have voltage from power ps and be applied on the hummer BZ1 and diode LP1 as alarm element, alarm can not sent like this.
Contact 3c at least one linkage unit AU1 in the initial state opens, and then transistor Tr 1 is opened, and relay coil RC is activated, relay contact RS2 closure, and last, voltage is applied on hummer BZ1 and the diode LP1.Like this, hummer BZ1 and diode LP1 begin to give the alarm.In a single day RC is activated when relay coil, even transistor Tr a disconnects, hummer BZ1 and diode LP1 also can continue to give the alarm.This is because the state of activation of relay coil RC can keep by the contact R S2 with relay coil and power ps polyphone.Warning device will be held secondary and go out alarm, till main switch MSW disconnects.
For example, the lead-in wire 21 and/or 22 of cable 2 is cut off in initial state, or when cable 2 is drawn out the web member 81 of warning device AD in the initial state, also can give the alarm.
As the linkage unit AU1 of the rightmost side among Figure 12, alarm element (being hummer BZ2 in the present embodiment) can with the parallel connection of contact 3c.Like this, when contact 3c was closed, voltage can not be applied to hummer BZ2, and therefore, hummer BZ2 can not give the alarm yet.When contact 3c opened, voltage was applied on the hummer BZ2 by a resistance R 2 from power ps, and hummer BZ2 gives the alarm thus.
If alarm element is provided with as mentioned above, the alarm meeting is sent in the stealing place.More particularly, can giving the alarm on hand the thief who linkage unit has been pulled down from article.Compare leaving situation about sending thief a distance with alarm, this situation that gives the alarm in thief's hand is easier to stop article to be stolen.In addition, alarm can make the thief recognize that stealing has been found.
Certainly, alarm also can be sent in the thief can not recognize the position (for example in the position away from the article zone that is shown) of alarm.
Though explained and described the present invention, be understandable that obviously this only is to have done explanation and example effect, and does not provide constraints, the spirit and scope of the present invention are only limited by claims.
