Description

The camera for vehicle of many camera lenses
Technical field
The utility model is about a kind of camera for vehicle, the camera for vehicle of espespecially a kind of many camera lenses and adjustable angle.
Background technology
The developing history of video camera is quite remote, photograph from the early stage mode that sees through film, gradually be developed to Design of digital now, also so that the board of video camera little by little dwindle, making things convenient for the user to carry, and can be based on security reason, based on collecting evidence or depositing card to make video recording in order to reduce true purpose, avoid by this misunderstanding and make self or other peoples' safety or damage of the rights and interests, for example driving recorder.
From the above; a just purpose for this reason of a kind of driving recorder as minicam is in the streets arranged at present; when it mainly drives a vehicle dispute because of the driver; often can can't directly prove and put in order self responsibility because suffering from not having evidence; so through the driving states of this driving register of installing with the record driver, can when have an accident dispute, demonstrate,prove picture through depositing of driving recorder and can put attribution of liability in order; also therefore be subject to liking of most drivers, and then driving recorder is popularized gradually.
Right present driving recorder mostly is the single visual angle photography, the meaning i.e. camera angle of this phtographic lens is fixing, only can photograph with regard to the angle that this phtographic lens can be taken, for corner comparatively (such as the left side or the right, top or bottom) the zone then can take or take unclear, for this situation, then Self-adjustment camera angle of part user is arranged, as phtographic lens is turned to the top, can make camera angle slightly up, use the picture that makes the sight line top and seen through the driving recorder shooting, only this mode can cause driving recorder can't take slightly down angle, and the angle that easily causes the dead ahead is understood marginalisation and is made shooting unclear in picture, in view of the above problems, be necessary to propose in fact a feasible solution.
The utility model content
The utility model fundamental purpose is providing a kind of camera for vehicle of many camera lenses, mainly is to be provided with in addition the phtographic lens that a capable of dynamic is adjusted angle, uses the shooting angle of the original camera lens of collocation, and more broad photographic picture is provided.
To make aforementioned video camera include for reaching the technological means that above-mentioned purpose takes:
One body is a hollow housing, forms two lens region on its front side wall, is provided with again more than one fixed mount in the body, and is formed with respectively a pivot section on the upper left right side wall of fixed mount;
One first image acquisition module is fixed in the lens bracket, and this lens bracket is hubbed at the pivot section of aforementioned fixed mount, and this first image acquisition module is corresponding to a lens region of body again;
One second image acquisition module is fixed on the fixed mount of aforementioned body, and corresponding in another lens region;
Comply with the camera for vehicle that above-mentioned structure consists of, it mainly sees through the first image acquisition module and the second image acquisition module respectively indirectly or be directly fixed on the fixed mount, and correspond respectively to two lens region of body, wherein, this the first image acquisition module transmitting lens headstock is hubbed on the fixed mount, so can swing up and down to adjust camera angle, and the camera angle of this second image acquisition module of arranging in pairs or groups, mat makes this camera for vehicle be taken simultaneously the picture of at least two kinds of angles, to reach the more broad purpose of shooting angle, provide the user to note down more comprehensively driving states.
