Camera assembly and rotating mechanism

摘要

A camera assembly includes a camera and a rotating mechanism configured to drive the camera to rotate. The rotating mechanism includes a base, a driving device, a first driving gear, a second driving gear connected with the camera, and a switch gear. The driving device, the second driving gear, and the switch gear are located on the bracket. The first driving gear is located on the base. The switch gear is driven to selectively engage with the one of the first driving gear and the second driving gear. When the switch gear is connected with the first driving gear, the bracket is driven to rotate and rotate the camera on a first plane. When the switch gear is connected with the second driving gear, the driving device drives the camera to rotate via the switch gear and the second driving gear.

1. A camera assembly comprising:
a camera; and a rotating mechanism configured to drive the camera to rotate, comprising: a base; a bracket rotatably coupled to the base, the camera being rotatably coupled on the bracket; and a driving module comprising: a driving device; a first driving gear; a second driving gear; and a switch gear configured to be driven by the driving device to rotate to selectively engage with one of the first driving gear and the second driving gear; when the switch gear rotates and engages with the first driving gear, the bracket is driven by the first driving gear to rotate and rotate the camera on a first plane; when the switch gear rotates and engages with the second driving gear, the camera is driven by the second driving gear to rotate on a second plane perpendicular to the first plane, wherein a first joint piece is located on the switch gear, a second joint piece is located on the first driving gear, a third joint piece is located on the second driving gear, when the switch gear engages with the first driving gear, the first joint piece connected with the second joint piece preventing the first driving gear and the switch gear from separating from each other; when the switch gear engages with the second driving gear, the first joint piece connected with the third joint piece preventing the second driving gear and the switch gear from separating from each other.
