The fixed head 31 of the guider 3 is fixed with the sliding body 1, the guiding head 32 of the guider 3 extends into the closed-loop guiding groove 4 and is limited and stopped at the upper falling point P1 under the action of the pre-thrust to extend out of the camera 100 or the lower falling point P2 to hide the camera 100, and when the sliding body 1 is pressed in the direction opposite to the pre-thrust, the unidirectional movement can be carried out to switch and stop between the upper falling point P1 and the lower falling point P2 by overcoming the limiting action of the upper falling point P1/the lower falling point P2 at present.

More specifically, the closed-loop guide slot 4 is a closed-loop smooth slot, the top of the closed-loop guide slot is an inverted V-shape, the bottom of the closed-loop guide slot is a W-shape, and the waist portions on the left and right sides are outward enlarged.

The closed-loop guide groove 4 is formed by clamping an inner closed-loop surface 401 and an outer closed-loop surface 402, the inner closed-loop surface 401 and the outer closed-loop surface 402 are two annular surrounding surfaces, and the outer closed-loop surface 402 surrounds the inner closed-loop surface 401.

The waist portions of the right and left sides of the closed loop guide groove 4 serve as a descending rail 41 and an ascending rail 42, respectively. The top of the inner closed loop surface 401 is biased toward the ascending rail 42 at a position corresponding to the turning point of the inverted V-shape, and the upper falling point P1 is biased toward the descending rail 41, so that the guide head 32 can only enter the descending rail 41 after being pressed by the sliding body 1 when resting at the upper falling point P1.

Among the two turning points on both sides of the W-shaped middle turning point, the turning point near the descending track 41 is the first edge turning point, and the turning point near the ascending track 42 is the second edge turning point.

The position of the bottom of the outer closed ring surface 402 corresponding to the W-shaped middle turning point is used as a first limiting point P3; the first limit point P3 is biased to the descending track 41, and the falling point P2 is biased to the ascending track 42, so that the guiding head 32, after being pressed to a first edge turning point along the descending track 41, falls into the falling point P2 after being collided with the first limit point P3 under the combined action of the self resilience force and the pre-thrust force along with the cancellation of the pressing force, and can only enter the ascending track 42 after being pressed by the sliding body 1 when the guiding head 32 stops at the falling point P2.

The position of the bottom of the inner closed loop surface 401 corresponding to the point close to the second edge turning point is used as a second limit point P4, and the height difference between the first limit point P3 and the second limit point P4 is smaller than a preset range and is approximately at a horizontal height, so as to prevent the guide head 32 from continuously sliding into the ascending rail 42 after falling into the falling point P2 under the combined action of the self resilience force and the pre-pushing force.

The working principle of the embodiment is as follows: when the sliding body 1 is pressed by an external force, the guiding head 32 moves in a single direction in the closed-loop guiding groove 4, for example, clockwise as shown in fig. 7. Under the thrust action of the compression spring, when the sliding body 1 extends, the guide head 32 of the guide 3 is pushed to the upper landing point P1 of the closed-loop guide groove 4. When the sliding body 1 slides downwards under external force, the guiding head 32 of the guider 3 can not continuously descend along the descending track 41 to the bottommost part, namely to a position P5 corresponding to the turning point of the first edge of the W-shaped closed ring surface 402 at the bottom; after the pressing force is released, the guider 3 rebounds, and the sliding body 1 is pushed by the compression spring, so that the guider 3 can move upwards to touch the first limit point P3, the sliding body 1 continues to move upwards after passing through the first limit point P3, the guiding head 32 of the guider 3 enters the falling point P2, and can possibly continue to move clockwise after falling into the falling point P2, if the sliding body continues to move, the guiding head 32 can touch the blocking surface between the second limit point P4 and the falling point P2, the guiding head 32 can fall back to the falling point P2, the guiding head 32 is stably limited at the falling point P2, and thus the retraction action of the camera 100 is completed. When the sliding body 1 is pressed by external force again, because the falling point P2 is the ascending rail 42 biased to the left side, the guiding head 32 of the guiding device 3 is separated from the falling point P2 and enters the left side instead of the right side, because the safety pressure is large, the sliding body can cross the second limit point P4 and touch the bottommost part of the ascending rail 42, namely touch the position P6 (P6 is gentle and much relative to P5) corresponding to the turning point of the second edge of the W-shaped closed ring surface 402 at the bottom of the outer closed ring surface 402, and at this time, the user can release the pressing, slide into the ascending rail 42 under the combined action of the self resilience of the guiding head 32 and the pre-pushing force of the compression spring, and under the pushing force of the compression spring, the sliding body 1 drives the guiding device 3 to move upwards, and finally drags the guiding head 32 of the guiding device 3 into the upper falling point P1, and completes the extending action of the camera 100.
