What is Yuntai?

Pan-tilt is the supporting equipment for installing fixed cameras, which can be divided into fixed and electric pan-tilt.

I. Introduction

According to the rotation characteristics of the tripod head, the tripod head can be divided into a horizontal tripod head that can only rotate left and right and an omnidirectional tripod head that can rotate left and right and up and down.

Generally speaking, the horizontal rotation angle is 0-350 and the vertical rotation angle is+90. The horizontal rotation speed of constant-speed pan/tilt is generally 3- 10 /s, and the vertical speed is about 4 /s s. ..

Generally, the horizontal rotation speed of variable-speed pan/tilt is 0-32/s and the vertical rotation speed is about 0-16/s. In some high-speed camera systems, the horizontal rotation speed of pan/tilt is above 480/s and the vertical rotation speed is above 65438°+020°/s s. ..

Yuntai is actually an installation platform composed of two AC motors or DC motors, which can move horizontally or vertically.

However, it should be noted that the Yuntai we are talking about is different from the Yuntai in photographic equipment. Generally speaking, the tripod head of photographic equipment is just a tripod, and the orientation can only be adjusted by hand. The pan-tilt mentioned in the monitoring system can remotely control its rotation and moving direction through the control system.

Second, the use

Yuntai is widely used, and various special industries also have certain demand for Yuntai products. In its country of invention, the Soviet Union was widely used in photographic propaganda films.

Due to the particularity of the use environment, Yuntai products are required to have special protective performance to adapt to the field environment. Common types are underwater type, high temperature type, low temperature type, anti-corrosion type and explosion-proof type. Special Yuntai has strict requirements on the materials used, protection levels and protection methods, and must comply with the corresponding industry-specific standards. Among them, the explosion-proof pan-tilt is the most prominent.
