Referring to fig. 2 and 5, in some embodiments, the first through hole 2111 is a circular arc through hole, and a circular arc center of the first through hole 2111 is a rotation center line of the camera 10 rotating relative to the mounting frame 20. Thus, when the camera head 10 rotates relative to the mounting bracket 20, the viewing angle adjustment assembly 30 can move along the circular arc-shaped trajectory defined by the first through hole 2111. On the contrary, the position of the viewing angle adjusting assembly 30 in the first through hole 2111 can be adjusted, so that the rotating member 50 rotates therewith, and the camera 10 rotates relative to the mounting bracket 20, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the camera 10.

When the rotating member 50 is inserted into the fitting hole 41, the rotating member 50 may be first aligned with the communicating opening 42, and then the rotating member 50 is moved rapidly toward the fitting hole 41, even if the rotating member 50 does not directly enter the fitting hole 41, but moves until the inner wall of the communicating opening 42 comes into contact with the inner wall of the communicating opening 42, it is possible to move rapidly toward the fitting hole 41 along the inner wall of the communicating opening 42 until the rotating member 50 enters the fitting hole 41 and is rotationally fitted with the wall of the fitting hole 41.

Of course, in other embodiments, after the sliding fit portion 311 extends into the gap formed between the first guide portion 221 and the second guide portion 222, it may also be only in contact with the first guide portion 221, and the first guide portion 221 defines the moving track of the sliding fit portion 311, so that the sliding fit portion 311 can only slide along the surface of the first guide portion 221. In other embodiments, after the sliding fit portion 311 extends into the gap formed between the first guide portion 221 and the second guide portion 222, it may only contact the second guide portion 222, which is not described herein again.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 7, in some embodiments, the adjusting fastener 32 includes a first connecting portion 321 and a second connecting portion 322, the first connecting portion 321 is movably connected to the actuating member 31, and the second connecting portion 322 is connected to the first connecting portion 321; by adjusting the second connecting portion 322, the actuator 31 movably connected to the first connecting portion 321 can be adjusted. When the second connecting portion 322 is connected to the mounting bracket 20, the camera 10 is fixed to the mounting bracket 20; when the second connecting portion 322 is detached from the mounting bracket 20, the camera 10 can rotate relative to the mounting bracket 20.

Preferably, referring to fig. 1, 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the first connecting portion 321 is in threaded connection with the actuating member 31, and the first connecting portion 321 and the actuating member 31 have a maximum thread matching depth, and when the thread matching depth of the first connecting portion 321 and the actuating member 31 reaches the maximum thread matching depth, the second connecting portion 322 abuts against the mounting frame 20, so as to fix the camera 10 to the mounting frame 20; when the first connecting portion 321 is screwed to the actuator 31 to a depth less than the maximum screwing depth, the second connecting portion 322 is disengaged from the mounting bracket 20, so that the camera head 10 can rotate relative to the mounting bracket 20. The first connecting portion 321 can be easily connected to the actuating member 31 by screw connection, and the second connecting portion 322 can be easily connected to and disconnected from the mounting bracket 20.

Specifically, referring to fig. 6 and 7, in some embodiments, an outer circumferential surface of the first connecting portion 321 is provided with an external thread, the actuating member 31 is provided with a second threaded hole 312 engaged with the external thread, and the first connecting portion 321 and the actuating member 31 are connected by the engaging thread between the external thread and the second threaded hole 312.

Further, referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 5, in some embodiments, the mounting frame 20 includes a plurality of limiting protrusions 2112 protruding from an inner wall of the first through hole 2111, the limiting protrusions 2112 are arranged at intervals, and a limiting slot is formed between any two adjacent limiting protrusions 2112. When fixing camera 10, can stretch into spacing draw-in groove with first connecting portion 321, second connecting portion 322 is located outside the spacing draw-in groove and with the surface butt of support 211. Therefore, the first connecting portion 321 is stopped by the limiting protrusion 2112, so that the first connecting portion 321 stays in the limiting slot. Therefore, the view field angle adjusting assembly 30 is stopped at the limiting clamping groove, and the pitching angle of the camera 10 is kept unchanged.

Further, in some embodiments, the retaining slot allows the first connecting portion 321 and the second connecting portion 322 to extend into and out, and the second connecting portion 322 fits into a slot wall of the retaining slot. Therefore, after the second connecting portion 322 extends into the limiting slot, the viewing angle adjusting assembly 30 cannot move along the circular arc track defined by the first through hole 2111, and the rotating member 50 cannot rotate, so that the pitching angle of the camera 10 is kept unchanged.

Further, referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the profile of the first connecting portion 321 is smaller than the profile of the slot wall at the narrowest portion of the position-limiting slot, in other words, the first connecting portion 321 can extend into and extend out of the position-limiting slot and can move along the arc-shaped track defined by the first through hole 2111. From this, when only first connecting portion 321 stretches into spacing draw-in groove, and second connecting portion 322 is located outside the spacing draw-in groove, visual field angle adjusting component 30 can remove along the circular arc orbit that first through-hole 2111 injectd, rotates piece 50 and can rotate thereupon to guarantee that camera 10 can rotate relative to mounting bracket 20, so just can adjust the every single move angle of camera 10 through adjusting visual field angle adjusting component 30.

Preferably, in some embodiments, to save cost, the adjusting fastener 32 can be a screw, and accordingly the first connecting portion 321 is a screw rod and the second connecting portion 322 is a screw head.

Preferably, referring to fig. 2, 5 and 6, in some embodiments, in order to ensure stable rotation of the camera head 10, the bracket 211, the first through hole 2111, the limiting protrusion 2112, the sliding guide portion 22, the actuating member 31, the rotation mounting base 40 and the rotating member 50 are arranged in pairs.

The camera 10 is connected to the mounting frame 20 by a threaded connection, specifically, the adjusting fastener 32 is passed through the limiting slot, so that the first connecting portion 321 is in threaded connection with the actuating member 31. When the camera head 10 is fixed to the mount 20 in this way, the second connecting portion 322 abuts against the bracket 211 of the mount 20, and the second connecting portion 322 exerts a large force on the bracket 211. In some embodiments, to prevent the bracket 211 from deforming due to a force, a rib is disposed on the bracket 211.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the bracket 211 may be disposed on the protective cover 23. Namely: the protective cover 23 comprises a bracket 211 positioned in the accommodating cavity, a first through hole 2111 is formed in the bracket 211, and the adjusting fastener 32 extends out of the bracket 211 through the first through hole 2111; the outer side of the bracket 211 is provided with a scale 60, and the scale 60 is arranged in an arc shape with the rotation center line of the camera 10 rotating relative to the mounting bracket 20 as the center. In these embodiments, since the protection cover 23 covers the base 21, that is, the protection cover 23 is located outside the base 21, and the first through hole 2111 and the scale 60 are already exposed out of the protection cover 23, the protection cover 23 is no longer opened with the second through hole 231.

It is understood that the camera head 10 may be pivotally connected to the base 21, or pivotally connected to the protective cover 23. Specifically, the rotating member 50 is disposed on the camera 10, the rotating mounting base 40 may be disposed on the base 21 or the protective cover 23, and the rotating member 50 is rotatably connected to the rotating mounting base 40.
