- the projecting portion 59 is provided so that the projecting length thereof is so small as to indicate the lower limits L and L ′ of the respective defining spaces when the present embodiment and the present embodiment are not applied. Even if it is not large, the hood 8 can be shortened by a length D larger than that. Therefore, the loadability of the in-vehicle camera can be dramatically improved.
- the in-vehicle camera 1 of the present embodiment has a structure in which a protruding portion 59 including a lens is provided and partially protruded, instead of bringing the entire upper portion of the in-vehicle camera body close to the windshield. Therefore, the bracket 3 can be disposed in a portion excluding the projecting portion 59 and the portion related to the defining space. For this reason, the area of the sticking surface to the windshield of the bracket 3 can be secured sufficiently, and a stable support structure for the in-vehicle camera body 1 by the bracket 3 can be realized.
- the length of the hood 8 can be shortened while taking a large area of the portion to be attached to the windshield of the bracket 3.
- the facing portion is formed so as to surround the periphery of the projecting portion 59 (excluding the portion related to the definition space) and is coupled to the projecting portion 59, but is not limited thereto. For example, it does not have to be formed behind or on the side of the protruding portion 59. However, by forming the facing portion so as to surround the periphery of the protruding portion 59, the area of the sticking portion 30 of the bracket 3 facing this is increased, and the sticking portion 30 is formed so as to surround the protruding portion 59.
- the vehicle-mounted camera 1 can be securely fixed to the windshield. Further, the affixing portion 30 does not necessarily need to have the front portion 30, but the load can be widely dispersed and reliably prevented from falling by having a shape that can cover the entire top surface of the in-vehicle camera body 5 excluding the defined space. . Further, since the support area can be increased as compared with the volume of the in-vehicle camera body 5 by supporting the inclined surface on which the lens is arranged in the middle, a stable support structure can be realized and the whole including the bracket 3 can be realized. It is an advantage of this embodiment that it can be accommodated in a size that does not obstruct the driver's field of view.
- the vehicle-mounted camera 1 of this embodiment hooks the boss
- the leaf spring 34 attaches the in-vehicle camera body 5 to the front end 31 and the pasting part 30 of the bracket 3. Contact and fix.
- the vehicle-mounted camera main body 5 is attached to the bracket 3, the windshield is detached from the vehicle by pressing the bracket 3 with a tool or the like, or the windshield is damaged by the tool.
- the in-vehicle camera body 5 can be attached to the windshield.
- the leaf spring 34 presses and fixes the in-vehicle camera body 5 against the bracket 3, there is no possibility that the in-vehicle camera body 5 rattles against the bracket 3 due to tolerance. .
- the vehicle-mounted camera body 5 can be reliably fixed to the windshield. Further, in the in-vehicle camera 1 of the present embodiment, the in-vehicle camera body 5 is hooked on the hook-shaped portion 33 through the boss 52a, the engaging protrusion 51a is engaged with the engaging hole 31a, and the in-vehicle camera body 5 is further bracketed. 3, the vehicle-mounted camera body 5 can be securely fixed to the bracket 3.

Abstract
Description
また、このような構造の車載カメラの場合、車載カメラがフロントガラスから脱落することを防止する必要から、ブラケットのフロントガラスへの貼付面の面積を大きく取る必要があるという課題がある。
尚、本実施形態の車載カメラは、車両の前方を撮像するものであるので、以下では、車両の前方を撮像するため予め定められたフロントガラス上の正位置に取り付けられたとき、車両の前方を向く方向を前方として説明する。
[全体構造]
本実施形態の車載カメラは1、図1に示すように、フロントガラスの車内側に貼り付けて固定されるブラケット3と、筐体内に撮像素子等を収納した車載カメラ本体5とを備えている。
[ブラケット]
ブラケット3は、図1及び図2(a)に示すように、フロントガラスに貼り付けられる貼付部30を備えている。
また、ブラケット3は、図1及び図2(b)(c)に示すように、一対の鈎状部33がブラケット3の左右両端に設けられている。具体的には、鈎状部33は、貼付部30の右側又は左側の側面から貼付部30に対して垂直に形成され、貼付面30aに沿って前方側に向かって鈎の先端が向けられている。また、一対の鈎状部33は、前後方向の中央よりやや後方側に寄った位置に設けられている。
なお、前方側端部31、後方側端部32、係合孔31a、鈎状部33、及び、板バネ34は、請求項における「取付部」に相当する。
[車載カメラ本体]
車載カメラ本体5は、図3に示すように、一部が前方側から後方側に上方に向かって傾斜した上面50を有する略箱形形状に形成されている。車載カメラ本体5は、この傾斜した上面50dを有し、ブラケット3への取付け状態においてブラケット3下に配される対向部と、後述する突設部59と、を備える。
この窪み部50aは、フロントガラス越しに車両の前方の撮像を行うときに、この車載カメラ本体5の視野を遮らないようにするためのものである。
また、この窪み部50aの後端部に隣接する位置に、突設部59が設けられている。突設部59は、対向部との間に上方に突出した段差59aを有する。つまり、ブラケット3への取付け状態において、突設部59の上面50eが対向部の上面50dよりもフロントガラス側に向かって突出するように形成されている。
このボス52aは、側方から車載カメラ1を見たとき、係合突起51aの前端とボス52aとの間の距離が、前方側端部31から根本部33aまでの距離よりも短い距離となる位置に設置されている。また、ボス52aは、前方側端部31からボス52aとの間の距離が、前方側端部31から引掛部33bの前方側先端までの距離よりも長い距離となる位置に設置されている。
なお、請求項中の「延出部」は、窪み部50aと対向部のレンズ50cよりも前方の部分が相当する。
なお、本実施形態では、フード8は車載カメラ本体5と別体で脱着可能に形成されているが、これに限定されない。つまり、車載カメラ本体5に一体形成されていてもよく、例えば車載カメラ本体5のレンズより前方の部分が長い場合は窪み部50aのみにより遮光部を構成してもよい。
なお、図4(a)では、画定空間を分かりやすくするため、フロントガラスの断面部分は着色して示している。
[取り付け工程について]
以上のように構成された車載カメラ1を、車両の製造工程においてフロントガラスに取り付ける工程について説明する。
この貼り付けは、ブラケット3の貼付面30aに接着剤を塗布し、フロントガラスに貼り付ける形で行われる。
その一方、車載カメラ本体5には、フード8が取り付けられる。
やがて各ボス52aが各鈎状部33の根本部33aに当接すると、本実施形態では、ボス52aが、係合突起51aの前端とボス52aの距離が、鈎状部33の根本部33aから前方側端部31までの距離よりも短い距離となる位置に設置されているので、図1に示すように、係合突起51aが係合孔31aに嵌挿するように車載カメラ本体5をブラケット3に対して配置することができる。
なお、図6は、フロントガラスを正面からみた図であり、本実施形態では、図6に示すように、フロントガラスの内側であって、ルームミラーの背面側の部分に車載カメラ1を配置する。本発明の適用は、フロントガラスの内側に張り付けて固定する車載カメラであれば、これに限定されず、例えば、車室側のダッシュパネル91とフロントガラスの間に配置する場合などに適用してもよい。
[本実施形態の特徴的な効果等]
次に、本実施形態の効果について、主に図4を参照しながら説明する。図4(b)は、本発明によらない車載カメラの一例を示したものであり、車載カメラ本体5′に突設部を設けることなく、車載カメラ本体5′の全体をブラケット3′下に配している。従って、図に示されるように、瞳位置が実施形態よりもブラケット3の厚さ程度低い位置に設定されている。
なお、本実施形態では、この対向部が突設部59の周囲(画定空間にかかる部分を除く)を取り囲むようにして形成され、突設部59に結合しているが、これに限定されず、例えば、突設部59の後方や側方に形成しなくてもよい。しかし、突設部59の周囲を囲むように対向部を形成することで、これに対向するブラケット3の貼付部30の面積を大きく、貼付部30が突設部59を取り囲むように形成することができ、車載カメラ1をフロントガラスへ確実に固定できる。
また、貼付部30は必ずしも前部30を有することを要しないが、画定空間を除く車載カメラ本体5の上面全体をカバーできる形状とすることで、荷重を広く分散でき、確実に落下を防止できる。また、レンズが途中に配された傾斜面を支持することで、車載カメラ本体5の容積に比し支持面積を大きくすることができるので、安定した支持構造を実現できると共にブラケット3を含む全体がドライバーの視界を妨げない大きさに収めるができるのも本実施形態の利点である。
また、本実施形態の車載カメラ1は、車載カメラ本体5がボス52aを介して鈎状部33に引っ掛けられるとともに係合突起51aが係合孔31aに係合し、さらに車載カメラ本体5がブラケット3の前方側端部31に押し付けられるので、車載カメラ本体5をブラケット3に確実に固定することができる。
尚、本発明は、特許請求の範囲に記載された発明の趣旨に合致するものであればよく、上述の実施形態に限定されるものではない。
