Protection case for telecameras

Abstract

A protection case ( 10 ) for telecameras, in particular for telecameras capable of transmitting a digital video signal through a computer network, of the type comprising at least one envelope, wherein the telecamera is positioned, equipped with at least one transparent element facing the recording lens of the telecamera and couplings ( 15 ) for the power supply, signal and/or network connections; according to the invention, special network connectors ( 16 ) are used, equipped with one seat or socket ( 17 ) adapted to Ethernet connections, which is mounted onto the case ( 10 ), such as to achieve a quick, easy and air-tight connection of an additional connector, such as a plug, for Ethernet connections, by operating exclusively outside the protection case ( 10 ).

1 . Protection case ( 10 ) for telecameras, in particular for telecameras capable of transmitting a digital video signal through a computer network, of the type comprising at least one envelope, equipped with at least one transparent element facing the recording lens of the telecamera and couplings ( 15 ) for cable connections, characterised in that at least one of said couplings ( 15 ) includes at least one respective network connector ( 16 ), equipped with at least one seat or socket ( 17 ) adapted to Ethernet connections, such as to achieve a quick and easy connection of a wired plug, for Ethernet connections, by operating exclusively outside the protection case ( 10 ).  
   
   
       2 . Protection case ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , usable in particular for monitoring telecameras, the so-called “network cameras” or “IP cameras”, or in other words telecameras for closed circuit video monitoring installations, at the output of which there is at least one Ethernet-type network connection.  
   
   
       3 . Protection case ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , characterised in that it comprises at least two bodies, one hinged to another.  
   
   
       4 . Protection case ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , characterised in that it comprises at least one central body ( 11 ), at least one front terminal portion ( 12 ), at which said transparent element is located, and at least one rear terminal portion ( 13 ), at which said couplings ( 15 ) are made for cable connections.  
   
   
       5 . Case ( 10 ) for telecameras according to  claim 1 , characterised in that said plug may be inserted into said socket ( 17 ), said socket ( 17 ) being typical of Ethernet-type network connections.  
   
   
       6 . Case ( 10 ) for telecameras according to  claim 5 , characterised in that at least one closing element ( 18 ) of said socket ( 17 ) is usable, in order to prevent accidental damage to said connector ( 16 ) caused by the penetration of dust and/or other atmospheric agents.  
   
   
       7 . Protection case ( 10 ) according to  claim 6 , characterised in that said closing element ( 18 ) is equipped with at least one tab ( 19 ).
