RU201263U1 - PROTECTIVE HOUSING FOR SIGNAL EQUIPMENT - Google Patents

Abstract

A protective housing for signaling equipment can be used to protect surveillance cameras (camera traps). A technical problem is the lack of such operational properties of analogues as the ability to install the body on an unprepared holder under the desired direction of the camera lens and the ability to assemble the body in the field. For this, a protective case is proposed, made in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped with equipment installed therein. The housing has a hinged front wall with a window for a video camera and side walls with devices for installing the housing on a holder, made in the form of side wall segments protruding beyond the rear wall with arc holes and a toothed edge. The body is made of impact-resistant plastic from flat workpieces connected in the "thorn-groove" type. This design makes it possible to assemble it in the field without using industrial equipment and installing the case on an unprepared holder - a fence post, a tree.

Description

The claimed utility model relates to parts of electrical devices, namely to housings, and can be used as a protective device for audio and video equipment, in particular to protect surveillance cameras (camera traps).

Known adopted as a prototype Protective housing for signaling equipment of audio-video communication, made in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped with equipment installed in it, including a video camera and an autonomous power source, the housing has a front wall opening on hinges with a window for a video camera and a locking device and side walls with devices for mounting the housing onto the holder (patent CN 206865870 U, H05K 5/02, published 2018.01.09).

The known protective case has inconvenient in operation fastening elements in the form of lugs in brackets welded to the side walls and a difficult-to-manufacture case material having a welded structure of aluminum alloy with coatings that do not allow assembling the case at the site of use, which also reduces the performance of the case.

A technical problem, the solution of which is ensured when using the utility model and which could not be solved when implementing or using analogs of the utility model, is the need for such operational properties as the ability to install the housing with the equipment in it on a holder that is not specially prepared for this (for example, a fence post or wood) at the desired angle and direction of the camera lens and microphone, as well as the possibility of assembling the case in the field, without the use of industrial equipment such as a welding machine.

To solve this technical problem, a protective case for signaling equipment is proposed, made in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped with equipment installed in it, including a video camera and an autonomous power supply, the case has a hinged front wall with a window for a video camera and a locking device and side walls with devices for installation of the case on the holder, the autonomous power source is installed on a shelf having a hole for connecting to the camera, devices for installing the case on the holder are made in the form of side wall segments protruding beyond the back wall with arc holes and a toothed edge, the case is made of impact-resistant plastic from flat blanks , connected according to the type "thorn - groove".

FIG. 1 shows an image of a general view of the body in a perspective 3/4 from the front;

in fig. 2 - rear view 3/4;

in fig. Figures 3-9 show the flat parts from which the utility model is assembled, including:

fig. 3 - front wall;

fig. 4 - side walls;

fig. 5 - shelf for equipment installation;

fig. 6 - the bottom of the body;

fig. 7 - housing cover;

fig. 8 - the upper part of the rear wall;

fig. 9 - the lower part of the rear wall.

The body 10 itself is a closed volume with a hinged front wall 20 (Fig. 3), which has a hole 21 for a video camera lens, pins 22 for fastening the cover 60 and the bottom 50, and a groove 24 of the locking device. The side walls 30 and 30a (Fig. 4) have pins 31 for fastening the cover 60, rigging units 32, grooves 33 for fastening the shelf 40, grooves 34 for fastening the upper part of the rear wall 70, thorns 36 for fastening the bottom 50; arcuate holes 37, as well as toothed sectors 39 for attaching the body to a holder (not shown). One of the side walls - 30 has a locking element 306, otherwise the walls 30 and 30a are symmetrical.

The shelf 40 for installing equipment (Fig. 5) has grooves 41 for the spikes 74 of the upper part of the rear wall 70, grooves 42 for the spikes 81 of the lower part of the rear wall 80, the spikes 43 for attaching to the side walls 30 and 30a and a cylindrical hole 44 for connecting the equipment components ...

The bottom 50 of the body (Fig. 6) has grooves 51 for spikes 83 of the lower part of the rear wall 80, grooves 52 for spikes 36 of the side walls 30 and 30a, an opening 53 for the hinge of rotation of the front wall 20. On the protruding edges there are cylindrical holes 55 for installing masking elements (not shown). The cylindrical hole 56 is used for the output of equipment components.

The housing cover 60 (Fig. 7) has grooves 61 for the spikes 31 of the side walls 30 and 30a, grooves 62 for the exit of the rigging units 32 of the side walls 30 and 30a and the units 71 of the upper part of the rear wall 70, grooves 63 for the spikes 76 of the upper part of the rear wall 70. The raised edges have cylindrical holes 64 for receiving masking elements (not shown). Cylindrical hole 65 is used to connect equipment components.

The rear wall of the housing 10 is divided by a shelf 40 into an upper part 70 and a lower part 80. The upper part of the rear wall 70 (Fig. 8) has a rigging assembly 71, access holes 72 and 73 for equipment components, and tenons:

74, entering the holes 41 of the shelf 40;

75 entering the holes 34 of the side walls 30 and 30a;

76, entering holes 63 of the top cover 60.

The lower part of the rear wall 80 (Fig. 9) has a rigging unit 82 and tenons:

81 for holes 42 of the shelf 40;

83 for holes 51 bottom 50.

Impact-resistant plastic in the form of sheets with a thickness of 1 to 10 mm from the group of polyolefins was used as a material for flat parts of the prefabricated body, for example, a sheet of LDPE grade "Geoflax" STO 55863969-010-2016 produced by LLC "GeoStryMarket", Nizhny Novgorod. Polyethylene is a plastic compound with increased impact resistance and low absorption capacity. Does not break, has low gas and vapor permeability. Physiologically neutral, odorless, which is important for camera traps.

The process of assembling the body using tenon-groove connections is intuitive from the description of the design above.

The claimed device of the protective housing for signaling equipment provides the appearance of such operational properties as the ability to install the housing with the equipment available in it on a holder that is not specially prepared for this (for example, a fence post or a tree) at the desired angle of the camera lens and microphone direction, as well as the possibility of assembling the housing in field conditions, without the use of industrial equipment such as a welding machine.
