Pi Camera Cylinder Mount

thingiverse

This versatile object can be used to mount a Raspberry Pi camera using 2mm nylon bolts inside an IP67 junction box. It measures 57.5mm wide and fits perfectly inside certain IP67 Sealed ABS Plastic Junction Boxes that measure 73x80x53mm. I designed it specifically to mount a camera inside a weather-proof box, serving as a security camera. The cylinder can be rotated in the box to adjust the camera's pitch angle with ease. Centre hole: A 4mm diameter hole is provided to accept a 3mm threaded bar. Total length: The total length of this object is 57.5mm. Cylinder radius: The cylinder has a radius of 10mm. Centre section thickness: The centre section of the object is 10mm thick. Recommended nylon bolt length: A recommended nylon bolt length of 15mm is suggested. I secure the cylinder in position by using 3mm nyloc nuts on the end of the threaded bar. Junction Box The junction box used is an Evatron IP67 ABS (DE Series) 80x73x53mm with 2 x M20 Knockouts. I prefer this style because it comes with a clear lid, providing easy access to the camera.

Post-Printing As with all printed holes, they are best cleared with a suitable drill bit, especially the holes for the 2mm camera bolts. I use 3mm nyloc nuts on the end of the threaded bar to secure the cylinder in place.
