Surveillance camera

A monitoring camera sets ON or OFF of swing correction in accordance with setting information about whether or not the swing correction of an image (that is, captured image) captured by an image sensor is performed, and corrects swing by cutting out a part of the captured image based on a swing detected value of a vibration sensor in a case where the swing correction is set ON. The monitoring camera outputs the captured image while maintaining a state thereof in a case where the swing correction is set OFF.

Monitoring camera and swing correction method

A pan tilt drive device includes a board, a drive worm that is rotatably supported by the board, a terminal worm wheel that is rotatably disposed relative to the board, a holder plate that is parallel to the board, a shaft that is rotatably supported while being parallel to the holder plate, an intermediate worm wheel that is fixed to one end of the shaft, and that meshes with the drive worm, an intermediate worm that is fixed to the other end of the shaft, and that meshes with the terminal worm wheel, a pivot mechanism, and a biasing member that biases the holder plate toward the drive worm and the terminal worm wheel.

Pan tilt drive device and camera device

An imaging apparatus includes a pan housing that is supported so as to be pan-rotatable about a pan-axis, a supporting arm of which a base end is supported by one end of the pan housing so as to be rotatable about a first tilt-axis which is spaced away from and perpendicular to the pan-axis, and a tilt housing which accommodates a camera, and of which one end side opposing the supporting arm is supported by a tip of the supporting arm so as to be rotatable about a second tilt-axis which extends in the same direction as the first tilt-axis extends.

Imaging apparatus

A camera apparatus includes a pan tilt drive device; a pan controller that performs rotation angle control on a pan motor which is provided in the pan tilt drive device; a tilt controller that performs rotation angle control on a tilt motor which is provided in the pan tilt drive device; a mechanical endpoint detection sensor that outputs a mechanical endpoint of a physical rotation direction of the pan tilt drive device; a storage that stores a turning range for each installation posture as a turning range angle from the mechanical endpoint; and a CPU that sends out a start endpoint angle and a terminal endpoint angle of the turning range angle which is read from the storage according to the installation posture to the pan controller and the tilt controller.

Camera apparatus

A imaging device includes: a lens unit which is rotatable about an optical axis thereof; an adjusting gear unit which includes an adjusting gear that rotates the lens unit; a case which accommodates the lens unit and the adjusting gear unit and has a penetration hole through which a portion of the adjusting gear protrudes outward from an accommodation space; and a cover which covers a portion of the case including the penetration hole from outside of the case.

Imaging device

A imaging device includes: a case having bottom and top plate portions with an accommodation space interposed therebetween; a dome cover protruding outward from the case through an opening formed in the top plate portion; an annular support member allowing a circumferential edge portion of the dome cover to be interposed between the support member and the top plate portion; a lens unit; and an elastic member disposed between the bottom plate portion and the lens unit and allows the lens unit to be biased in a direction toward the dome cover. The lens unit includes an outer circumferential portion disposed on outside of a lens in a direction along the bottom plate portion and engaged with an inside opening of the support member, and a stepped portion provided in the outer circumferential portion and restricts movement in the direction approaching the dome cover by abutting the support member.

A camera apparatus includes a camera unit that is provided with a camera lens, a camera body that rotatably holds the camera unit, and a rotating mechanism that rotates the camera unit in response to an emergency signal so as to be switched from a first state where the camera lens is stored inside the camera body to a second state where the camera lens is exposed to an outside of the camera body.
