    [0001] SYSTEM FOR FIXING AND TILTING DEVICES FOR COLLECTION OF
    [0003] Object of the invention
    [0005] The object of the invention is a system for fixing and tilting image capture devices to lighting devices of priority vehicles. Priority vehicles have on their roofs some luminous devices that not only incorporate emergency or priority lights, they also have image capture devices such as video cameras and vehicle license plate reading cameras whose inclination, to obtain a viewing angle correct, depends on the height of the priority vehicle. The system of the present invention allows selecting the inclination of image capture devices such as vehicle license plate reading cameras (known as ALPR "Automatic License Plate Recognition" or simply "ALPR") or any other type of camera and video cameras depending on the height of the priority vehicle.
    [0007] Therefore, the aim is to provide a system that not only fixes the image-capturing devices to the luminous device, but also the same fixing system allows the inclination of the image-capturing devices in a reduced size, such as being able to position the imaging devices. Capturing images on the perimeter of a luminous device without interfering with the functionality of the rest of the elements of the luminous device, such as: emergency lights, priority lights, signal lights, lighting lights, siren, etc.
    [0009] Technical Field of the Invention
    [0011] The technical field to which the present invention belongs is the field of fixing and tilting systems specially adapted to lighting devices for priority and emergency vehicles such as police vehicles, ambulances, fire brigades, etc.
    [0013] Background of the Invention
    [0014] Currently, the lighting devices for emergency vehicles have several functions that go beyond the function of warning the emergency or priority lights. Among the additional functions that the light devices must have are the functions of capturing the environment of the priority vehicle and the recognition of license plates of the vehicles close to the priority vehicle. These functionalities entail including image capture devices such as video cameras and license plate reading cameras on the perimeter of the luminous device in such a way that it does not affect the rest of the functionalities (priority lights, emergency lights, panels that show messages, sirens, etc.). In addition, the imaging devices must be able to properly orient themselves to the height of the priority vehicle in order to have the correct lean angle.
    [0016] The solution of the state of the art is the inclination of the complete luminous device according to the need of the image acquisition device. This has the disadvantage that it can make the rest of the functionalities incompatible to the point of rendering them unusable.
    [0018] It would therefore be desirable to find a solution to the problem of the state of the art in which each image acquisition device such as video cameras and license plate reading cameras can be regulated independently without affecting the functionality of the rest of the luminous device. .

    [0083] Figure 1 shows a light fixture for priority vehicles 1 with four video cameras 4 as image capture devices. The 4 camcorders are hidden inside the 6 protective housings. There are two 4 centered camcorders on each major side of the luminous device 1, and two video cameras 4 centered on the smaller side of the luminous device 1. The luminous device 1 has the luminous panel 2 in the unfolded position, which hides the protective casing 6 on a greater side of the luminous device 1. The system for fixing and tilting image acquisition devices to priority vehicle lighting devices of the present invention is located inside the protective casing 6, as described below for figure 4.
    [0085] Figure 2 shows a light device 1 for priority vehicles with two license plate reading cameras 5 and a video camera 4 located on each of the long sides of the light device 1, the light panel 2 being in the folded position. The system for fixing and tilting video cameras to lighting devices of priority vehicles of the present invention is located inside the protective casing 6, as described below for Figures 4 and 5. Figure 3 corresponds to the Figure 2, but with the light panel 2 unfolded.

Regarding the shape of the luminous device 1, the luminous device 1 to which the present invention is directed has a rectangular shape with little height in relation to the width of the longer or shorter sides of the luminous device 1. The low height of the luminous device 1 makes it difficult to fix the video cameras 4 and the license plate reading cameras 5 to the luminous device 1 and also the inclination of the video cameras 4 and of the number plate reading cameras 5. However, the aforementioned difficulty is overcome with the fixing system and inclination of the present invention and shown in Figures 4 and 5.
    [0089] Figure 4 shows the fixing and inclination system of the present invention for the video camera 4, characterized in that said video camera 4 has two off-center holes in its lateral parts as a means of fixing. The luminous device 1 comprises the perimeter profile 8 to which the fixing and inclination system of the present invention is fixed in the following way. The fixing and inclination system comprises the perimeter adapter 9 in a staggered manner, which has the seat 10 to receive one end of the intermediate support 11. The perimeter profile 8 has screws 16 that fix both the perimeter adapter 9 and the intermediate support 11, thus saving space. The intermediate support 11 has a "U" shape formed by a flat part 11a of whose ends project perpendicularly to the flat part and parallel to each other, two rectangular projections 11b, at the end of which there are slits 11c. The rectangular projections 11b have an internally threaded adjustment support 13 to receive the adjustment screw 12. The threaded studs 14a of the inclination plates 14 fixed laterally to the video camera 4 are inserted over the slots 11c. The threaded studs 14a press the grooves. 15 by means of nuts. One of the inclination plates 14 has a projection (not shown) that is fixed to the head of the adjustment screw 12. In this way the threaded lugs 14a allow the free rotation of the video camera 4 so that it can have any tilt the camcorder 4, but said free rotation is limited by the adjustment screw 12 that keeps the camcorder 4 at the tilt. n desired. Additionally, the perimeter adapter 9 has threaded flanges 9a so that the fixed part 6a of the protective casing 6 can be fixed by screws 17. The protective casing 6 in addition to the fixed part 6a, has a removable part 6b clamped against the fixed part 6a, and allowing easy access to the camcorder 4 for adjustment.
    [0091] Figure 5 shows the fixing and inclination system of the present invention for the license plate reading camera. The fixation and tilt system for the license plate reading camera 5 varies very little from the fixation and tilt system of the camcorder 4. The only difference is that the camcorder 4 has two off-center lateral fixation points while the license plate camera. license plate reading has a single side and center point, and fixing points at the rear.
    [0093] Returning to figure 5 where the fixing and inclination system of the present invention for the license plate reading camera 5 is shown, the luminous device 1 comprises the perimeter profile 8 to which the fixing and inclination system of the present invention of the license plate is fixed. Following way. The fixing and inclination system comprises the perimeter adapter 9 in a staggered manner, which has the seat 10 to receive one end of the intermediate support 11. The perimeter profile 8 has screws 16 that fix both the perimeter adapter 9 and the intermediate support 11 , saving space in this way. The intermediate support 11 has a "U" shape formed by a flat part 11a whose ends project perpendicularly to the flat part and parallel to each other, two rectangular projections 11b, at the end of the which are provided with slits 11c. One of the rectangular projections 11b has an internally threaded adjustment support 13 to receive the adjustment screw 12. Fixing screws 18 are inserted over the slots 11c, which are screwed laterally to the license plate reading chamber to fix the same. . In order to be able to select the inclination of the license plate reading camera 5, the inclination plate 19 is fixed to the rear of the license plate reading camera 5. The inclination plate 19 has a projection 19a that is fixed to the head of the adjustment screw 12. In this way, the fixing screws 18 allow the free rotation of the license plate reading camera 5 so that the license plate reading camera 5 can have any inclination, but said free rotation is limited by the locking screw. regulation 12 that maintains the license plate reading camera 5 at the desired inclination. Additionally, the perimeter adapter 9 has threaded flanges 9a so that the fixed part 6a of the protective casing 6 can be fixed by screws 17. The protective casing 6 in addition to the fixed part 6a, has a removable part 6b clamped against the fixed part 6a, and that allows easy access to the license plate reading camera for adjustment.
    [0095] Therefore, the image acquisition device fixing and inclination system shown in figure 4 is used for any image acquisition device that has two holes, which can be threaded, as a fixing means, in each of its lateral parts. . While the image acquisition device fixation and inclination system shown in figure 5 is used for any image acquisition device that has a centered hole, which can be threaded, as a means of fixation, in each lateral part of the image acquisition device. image acquisition device and one or more holes (threaded or not) on the back of the image acquisition device.
