Thus, when a lost smartphone is moved, it can be used for arresting a lost smartphone through image analysis of a person or a vehicle commonly photographed on images photographed in a plurality of areas.

On the other hand, an installation opening in which a thread 112 is formed is formed in the rear of the installation housing 110 of the camera unit 100.

In addition, a first closing member 104 for closing the installation opening is disposed at the rear of the camera 102.

The first closing member 104 is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape and a thread 106 for coupling with the thread 112 is formed on the outside so that the first closing member 104 is rotated, And closes the installation opening.

An opening for passing the power cable is formed in the center of the first closing member 104 and a tapered portion 105 is formed around the opening so that the tapered portion 105 contacts the intermediate closing member 120 ) To close the tapered opening 122 while pressing against the outer surface of the power cable.

The first closing member 104 is provided with a first gear tooth 108 along the circumferential direction and a pressing member 114 having a second gear tooth engageable with the first gear tooth 108 And the pressing member supporting member 117 is elastically fixed in position by an elastic member 119 such as a spring.

The second gear teeth formed on the pressing member 114 are formed of, for example, bevel gear teeth so that the first closing member 104 is rotated and enters the mounting opening by rotating the pressing member 114 do.

An intermediate closing member (120) is disposed in the installation opening so as to face the first closing member (104).

The intermediate closing member 120 is formed in the shape of a disk and has a thread formed on the outer circumferential surface thereof and a tapered opening 122 for contacting the tapered portion 142 of the cable closing member 104 is formed at the center thereof.

The intermediate fixing member 130 is disposed to face the intermediate closing member 120 and the intermediate fixing member 130 is formed in a disk shape so that a thread is formed on the outer circumferential surface thereof and the cable closing member 140 (Not shown) are formed.
