Patent ID: 8902310

Claim:
A monitoring camera device, comprising: an exterior casing made of elastic material, defining a plurality of first receiving cavities, first vents, and first through holes; each of the first vents comprising an annular, elastic tap protruding from an inner rim of the first vent, each annular elastic tap being capable of being elastically deformed and defining an opening, wherein when the exterior casing is not elastically deformed, the corresponding annular elastic tap is in an original state, and the corresponding opening is in an open state; when the exterior casing is elastically deformed to allow air to flow in the first vents, the annular elastic tap is elastically deformed, and the opening is enlarged or closed; an interior casing made of rigid material, attached to an inner surface of the exterior casing, and defining a plurality of second receiving cavities aligned with the first receiving cavities, second vents aligned with the first vents, and second through holes aligned with the first through holes, a plurality of valve members being rotatably connected to the interior casing adjacent to the corresponding second through holes, wherein when pushed by the air flowing in the interior casing, the valve members are able to rotate with respect to the corresponding second through holes, thereby covering or exposing the second through holes; and a plurality of camera assemblies received in the first receiving cavities and the second receiving cavities, each camera assembly comprising a camera.
