发明名称 Humidity prevention system within a camera housing
摘要 A camera housing includes a humidity prevention system comprising various seals between internal components of the housing such as an external shell of the housing, a lens barrel within the external shell, a front cover of the housing, an outer front cover of the housing, and a viewing component connected to the outer front cover. A plurality of seals creates an airtight seal between the lens barrel and the front cover and between the front cover and the outer front cover. The seals create an airtight cavity within the outer front cover, the viewing component, the front cover, and the lens barrel. Additional seals can also be used to create an airtight seal between the outer front cover and the viewing component and between the external shell and the front cover, further preventing humidity from accumulating within the closed airtight space.
