Abstract

A display module is set at one side of the surveillance device (CCTV), which can instantaneously monitor the images captured by the surveillance device (CCTV) without having to show the image via the computer screen connected to a remote digital video and audio storage device (DVR). The surveillance device with a display module has two capabilities of images recording and instant images monitoring.

Claims

1. A surveillance device with a display module, comprising:

at least one surveillance camera having a lens, a control circuit and a power supply module, wherein the lens and the power supply module are electrically connected to the control circuit respectively; and

a display module disposed on at least one side of the surveillance camera and electrically connected to the control circuit.

2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the surveillance camera further has an audio/video transmission line with two ends, one end thereof electrically connected to the control circuit of the surveillance camera, the other end thereof electrically connected to a host control circuit of a digital video and audio storage device (DVR).

3. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the display module is one selected from the following group consisting of:

Liquid Crystal Display, Organic Light-Emitting Diode and Light Emitting Diode.

4. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the surveillance camera is one of a cylinder and a cuboid.

5. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the surveillance camera has a base on one side thereof.

6. The device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the base has a connecting structure on one side thereof.

7. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the connecting structure is located on left side of the base.

8. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the connecting structure is located on right side of the base.

9. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the connecting structure is one of a pivotal structure and a fixture structure.

10. The device as claimed in claim 9, wherein the pivotal structure is pivotally connected to a rotating structure, and the rotating structure has a shaft pivotally connected to the display module so as to allow the display module to adjust angles along x and y axes.

11. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the display module has a speaker and a microphone electrically connected to the control circuit.

12. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the surveillance camera has at least one light emitting element and the light emitting element is electrically connected to the control circuit.

13. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the surveillance camera has a connecting portion.

14. The device as claimed in claim 11, wherein the connecting portion is one of an engaging structure and a locking structure.

15. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the display module has an engaging portion so as to be engaged with the engaging structure.

16. The device as claimed in claim 14, wherein the locking structure has a locking element so as to be securely locked on the display module.

17. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the display module has a connecter on at least one side thereof.

18. The device as claimed in claim 17, wherein the connecter is one of an engaging member and a locking member.

19. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the display module is disposed on the top of the surveillance camera.

20. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the display module is disposed on the bottom of the surveillance camera.

21. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the display module is disposed on the left of the surveillance camera.

22. The device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the display module is disposed on the right of the surveillance camera.

23. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the control circuit has a radio transceiver circuit.
