Abstract

The present invention relates to a device which makes it possible to mount one or more video cameras on an assembly rotating in azimuth and in elevation. By the addition of a rotating joint, the continuous azimuthal rotations in no way adversely affect the functions of the various electrical conductors and especially the video signal. It consists of a protective sphere or cylinder 1, a rotating support 7 with its joint 6, a motor 5 for the azimuthal rotations, a rotating camera-support assembly 10, a motor 12 for the elevational movements and camera support 14.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un dispositif qui permet d'embarquer urate L > LJ plusieurs caméras vidéo, ou tout autre appareil de prise de vue, sur un enbtm- ble tournant en azimut + de 3600 sans limitation et en site + 450. DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a device which makes it possible to embark urate L> LJ several video cameras, or any other camera, on a set rotating in azimuth + of 3600 without limitation and in site + 450.

Jusqu'à présent, les tourelles supports caméras existantes étaient obligées d'arreter leur rotation en azimut avant un tour complet sous peine de de- tériorer et casser leurs fils électriques d'asservissement et câble coaxial vidéo. Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Until now, the existing camera support turrets were forced to stop their rotation in azimuth before a full turn, otherwise the electrical control cables and video coaxial cable would deteriorate and break. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks.

Il comporte en effet, selon une première caractéristique, un joint tournant miniature qui permet la continuité électrique ainsi que la continuité du signal vidéo. Ce joint est composé de deux parties principales : l'arbre (par- tie tournante), le boitier (partie fixe). Les contacts, bagues, balais sont réalisés en métaux précieux. According to a first characteristic, it in fact comprises a miniature rotating joint which allows electrical continuity as well as the continuity of the video signal. This seal is made up of two main parts: the shaft (rotating part), the housing (fixed part). The contacts, rings, brushes are made of precious metals.

Le passage de plus de 30 conducteurs est possible, ce qui permet d'asservir plusieurs caméras ainsi que l'alimentation de plusieurs fonctions. The passage of more than 30 conductors is possible, which allows to slave several cameras as well as the supply of several functions.

L'ensemble de ce dispositif peut être posé sur un socle ou suspendu. The whole of this device can be placed on a base or suspended.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention - la figure l représente en élévation le dispositif selon l'invention - la figure 2 représente en coupe le support tournant - la figure 3 représente en coupe l'ensemble tournant avec support caméra. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention - Figure l shows in elevation the device according to the invention - Figure 2 shows in section the rotating support - Figure 3 shows in section the rotating assembly with camera support.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un cylindre ou un globe transparent en plexiglas (I) qui permet de protéger les organes internes du dispositif des poussières et nêmg de la pluie. Cette protection est fixée sur une plaque support (2) qui servira de plaque support dans la version suspendue ou de base support dans la version posée. With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a cylinder or a transparent plexiglass globe (I) which makes it possible to protect the internal organs of the device from dust and from rain. This protection is fixed on a support plate (2) which will serve as a support plate in the suspended version or as a support base in the installed version.

Quatre colonnettes (3) fixées à cette plaque support servent à maintenir une plaque support (4) qui reçoit le moteur (5) de rotation en azimut, le joint tournant (6), le support tournant (7) qui nous permettra de suspendre des objets pesants sans détériorer l'arbre du joint tournant. Four balusters (3) fixed to this support plate serve to maintain a support plate (4) which receives the motor (5) for rotation in azimuth, the rotary joint (6), the rotary support (7) which will allow us to suspend heavy objects without damaging the rotating joint shaft.

Cet axe tournant (8) est entrainé par une poulie réceptrice supérieure (9) qui met en rotation un ensemble tournant (10) (plaque et équerre). Cette rota tion en azimut peut donc se faire sans interruption puisqu'il nty a aucune hr- tée de fin de course. This rotary axis (8) is driven by an upper receiving pulley (9) which rotates a rotary assembly (10) (plate and bracket). This azimuth rotation can therefore be done without interruption since there is no end-of-travel time limit.

Sur l'équerre (10) de l'ensemble tournant est monté un axe tournant (11) avec une poulie réceptrice inférieure (12) entraînée par un moteur (13) pour les rotations en site (+ 45 ), des butées de fin de course limitent les déplacements de haut en bas. On the bracket (10) of the rotary assembly is mounted a rotary axis (11) with a lower receiving pulley (12) driven by a motor (13) for site rotations (+ 45), end stops of travel limit movement from top to bottom.

Sur l'axe tournant (11), à l'opposé de la poulie réceptrice, est fixé un support (15) qui supportera la caméra, le zoom ou tout autre appareil. On the rotating axis (11), opposite the receiving pulley, is fixed a support (15) which will support the camera, the zoom or any other device.

L'ensemble du dispositif, d'un encombrement réduit (200mu x 260mm) permet à cette tourelle une exploitation en tout lieu.  The entire device, with a reduced footprint (200mu x 260mm) allows this turret to be used anywhere.
