SENSOR BRACKET
A sensor bracket includes a bracket on which a camera (a sensor) that detects a state around a vehicle is mounted, a flat spring that abuts against the camera in a direction that maintains a mounted state of the camera when the camera is mounted on the bracket, and a stopper restricting, in between a space where a tool is positioned and an inner surface of a piece of glass, a displacement range of the tool from the space to the inner surface of the piece of glass when the flat spring is dismounted from a projection for the spring of the bracket with the tool.
Protected Back-Up Camera For Vehicles
A back-up camera for a vehicle incorporating a hood, a cover, nozzles for squirting water and air onto the surface of the camera lens, and an heating element for melting ice which accumulates on the lens.
SENSOR BRACKET
A sensor bracket includes a bracket on which a camera detecting a state around the vehicle is mounted, a planar portion that holds the camera to the bracket by engaging with an engagement protrusion of the camera, a flat spring that biases the camera in a direction that maintains an engaged state of the camera by abutting against the camera when the camera is mounted on the bracket, a projecting structure of the bracket that restricts a defamation range of the flat spring displaced in an engagement direction of the engagement protrusion within an elastic deformation range when the engagement protrusion is engaged with the planar portion while the camera is abutted against the flat spring.
Solar rejection system with movable sunshade
A solar rejection system includes an enclosure for housing a sensor, and a movable sunshade. The housing has an opening or aperture for admitting light to the sensor, and the sunshade is moved as needed to prevent harmful solar illumination of the sensor. The sunshade may be a flat panel. The sunshade panel is mounted to a hinge that is located on one side of a large diameter bearing that allows the shade to be rotated around the aperture of the sensor to always prevent the sun from illuminating the aperture. The hinge allows the shade to be tilted to either allow the sensor to see further off axis without obscuration or to block the sun when it moves in front of the sensor. Full closure of the sunshade on its hinge allows it to also function as an aperture door, blocking the opening or aperture.
CAMERA DEVICE AND CAMERA DEVICE CONTROL METHOD
According to the invention, there is provided a camera device including a light transmitting cover, a rotatable camera unit that is provided in the cover, a light shielding plate unit that can move the positions of a plurality of light shielding plates each of which blocks a portion of light incident on the camera unit, and a control unit that controls the light shielding plate unit, in which the control unit changes a light shielding range of each of the plurality of light shielding plates according to a tilt angle of the camera unit.
WINDSHIELD-MOUNTED CAMERA MODULE
A camera module, which is mounted on an inside of a front windshield of a vehicle and configured to image an external environment of the vehicle, includes multiple lens units on which an optical image of the external environment is incident, individually, and an imaging system to generate an outside image of the external environment by imaging through each of the lens units, individually.
Thermographic system
The invention relates to a thermographic system comprising infrared imaging means, a radiation source and a duct (18) for guiding the radiation in a longitudinal direction (L) to an outlet of the duct (18) located at a free edge (28) thereof, characterized in that the free edge (28) of the duct (18) is deformable along the longitudinal axis (L) in a first direction (L1) oriented from the outlet of the duct (18) towards the imaging means (12) and in that it comprises means for returning the free edge to its initial shape and means for holding said free edge of the duct (18) in a deformed state.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An electronic device includes a display module including a display area and a transmission area having a higher light transmittance than the display area, a lower film disposed under the display module, a protective member disposed under the lower film, the protective member including a module hole overlapping penetrating the protective member, at least one cover pattern disposed between the lower film and the protective member, and an electronic module overlapping the module hole, wherein the at least one cover pattern has a closed line shape surrounding the module hole.
Electronic device comprising camera device and method
Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device for blocking light. The electronic device may comprise: a housing comprising a front plate, a rear plate facing in the opposite direction to the front plate, and a side member surrounding the space between the front plate and the rear plate; a touch screen arranged in the space and exposed through the front plate; and a camera assembly exposed through one selected from the front plate and the rear plate. The camera assembly may comprise: a camera lens facing a first part of the one selected from the front plate and the rear plate; a flash facing a second part of the one selected from the front plate and the rear plate; and an opaque layer arranged between the camera lens and the flash when seen from above the one selected from the front plate and the rear plate. The second part may be arranged adjacent to the first part. The camera lens and the flash may be arranged side by side with each other in a first direction. The opaque layer may comprise a first slit extending between the camera lens and the flash on the basis of a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction. Other embodiments are also possible.
Lens module
The present disclosure relates to the field of optical lenses, and discloses a lens module. In the present disclosure, the lens module includes a lens barrel, a first lens disposed in the lens barrel, and a light shading member disposed in the lens barrel and abutting against the first lens. The first lens includes an optical portion for imaging and a supporting portion surrounding the optical portion. The supporting portion is recessed from an object side towards an image side to form a receiving portion. The light shading member is at least partially disposed in the receiving portion in a direction of an optical axis. The lens module according to the present disclosure can facilitate achieving a miniaturized design.
