Abstract: A camera device (1) includes a camera (2) having a shooting direction which is set at a predetermined direction; a table (3) that supports the camera (2) so as to be rotatable in a horizontal direction; and a cover (4) that is mounted on the table (3) and covers the camera (2). The table (3) includes a first slope portion (9) at a position corresponding to the direction of the camera (2), and the cover (4) includes a window (8) for ensuring a shooting field of view of the camera (2), and a second slope portion (10) having a shape in accordance with that of the first slope portion (9) at a position corresponding to an direction of the window (8). The direction of the window (8) is adjusted to align with the direction of the camera (2) in the horizontal direction when the first slope portion (9) and the second slope portion (10) are brought into contact with each other.

Abstract: A dome type camera (1) comprises a camera (2), a lower case (3) having a first serration (9), an upper case (4), a dome cover (6), and an inner cover (7) having a second serration (20), where the upper case (4) can be attached to the lower case (3) at two steps of attachment positions which are an adjustment position and a locking position. When the attachment position of the upper case (4) is set at the adjustment position, the first serration (9) and the second serration (20) are incompletely engaged with each other, allowing the inner cover (7) to be rotatable with respect to the lower case (3), and when the attachment position of the upper case (4) is set at the locking position, the first serration (9) and the second serration (20) are completely engaged with each other, allowing the inner cover (7) to be fixed to the lower case (3). The orientation of the cover can be easily adjusted after the cover has been attached, and the work efficiency is improved in installation and adjustment works.

Abstract: The lens moving mechanism may be a cam structure. The cam structure is set so that the rotation axis of the lens is held at the center of the dome in a predetermined center hold angle range corresponding to the direction of an elevation angle, and that the rotation axis of the lens is moved from the center of the dome in the zenith direction at angles lower than the center hold angle range. Good images can be obtained even when shooting in the direction of a depression angle.

Abstract: A monitor camera device (10) has a camera housing (12) and a dehumidification regulation body (14). The dehumidification regulation body (14) has a dehumidification element (42), an electrode, and an engaging portion engaging with an engaged portion of the camera housing (12). One end side of the electrode is constructed so as to supply a power source to the dehumidification element (42), and the other end side penetrates through the engaging portion of the dehumidification regulation body (14). The dehumidification regulation body (14) is detachably attached to the camera housing (12) by the engaging portion of the dehumidification regulation body (14) and the engaged portion of the camera housing (12). The monitor camera device can be downsized while providing a dehumidification regulating function.

Abstract: A lens (16) is rotatably provided inside a dome cover (22). The lens (16) is supported so that the center of rotation can be moved from the center of a dome to a position apart therefrom in the zenith direction. A lens moving mechanism for moving the lens (16) according to a rotation in the tilt direction of the lens (16) may be provided. The lens moving mechanism may be a cam structure. The cam structure is set so that the rotation axis of the lens (16) is held at the center of the dome in a predetermined center hold angle range corresponding to the direction of an elevation angle, and that the rotation axis of the lens (16) is moved from the center of the dome in the zenith direction at angles lower than the center hold angle range. Good images can be obtained even when shooting in the direction of a depression angle.

Abstract: A surveillance camera device is provided which has an impact absorbing structure. The camera device includes a rotary base supporting a camera unit, a rotary bracket supporting the rotary base, and coil springs. The coil springs work to elastically urge the rotary base away from the rotary bracket to as to permit the rotary base to move straight against the mechanical pressure of the springs when subjected to a damaging impact on the device, thereby absorbing the impact to avoid damage to the camera unit.

Abstract: An improved structure of a surveillance camera device is provided which permits the size of the device to be reduced. The camera device consists of a camera unit, a rotary bracket, and a mount body. The rotary bracket is made of an annular plate and retained to be panable by guide rollers installed on a flange of the mount body. The camera unit is retained to be tiltable by the rotary bracket with the bottom thereof disposed within a central opening of the rotary bracket, thereby resulting in a decrease in distance between the flange of the mount body and the top of the camera unit.
