Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application is based on and claims priority under 35 USC 119 from Japanese Patent Application No. 2023-058038 filed on Mar. 31, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD The present disclosure relates to an attachment member for a camera. BACKGROUND ART In the related art, a fixing device for a camera or the like has been disclosed. The fixing device for a camera or the like includes a camera accommodation portion holding portion for holding a camera accommodation portion for accommodating a camera or the like, a base portion for holding the camera accommodation portion holding portion, and a fixing portion for holding the base portion. The fixing device for a camera or the like includes a first position adjusting unit for adjusting a relative position between the camera accommodation portion and the camera accommodation portion holding portion, a second position adjusting unit for adjusting a relative position between the camera accommodation portion holding portion and the base portion, and a third position adjusting unit for adjusting a relative position between the base portion and a fixing portion. The first to third position adjusting units independently adjust the relative position. The fixing portion has an attachment hole and can be bound to a trunk or a branch of a tree, or the like by using an attachment belt or the like. CITATION LIST Patent Literature Patent Literature 1: JP2008-83634A SUMMARY OF INVENTION However, the fixing device for a camera or the like is not intended to be attached to a wall. Therefore, it is necessary to use different attachment devices for a camera or the like for attachment to a cylindrical tree trunk or pole and attachment to a flat wall or the like. An object of the present disclosure is to provide an attachment member for a camera, which enables a camera to be attached to different attachment targets such as a wall or a pole. The present disclosure provides an attachment member for a camera that is attachable to a pole or a wall surface. The attachment member includes a camera attachment portion to which the camera is attachable, a protruding portion whose one end is connected to the camera attachment portion, and a back plate connected to another end of the protruding portion. The protruding portion has a pair of side wall portions formed from the back plate toward the camera attachment portion, the pair of side wall portions have a through hole that allows at least one belt to be inserted, and the back plate has a plurality of fixing holes that allow a plurality of fixing members to be screwed. According to the present disclosure, a camera is enabled to be attached to different attachment targets such as a wall or a pole. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of a surveillance camera during attachment to a pole; FIG. 2 is a back perspective view of an attachment member during attachment to the pole; FIG. 3 is a side view of the attachment member during attachment to the pole; FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a base member during attachment to the pole; FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the attachment member shown in FIG. 3, which is taken along a line A-A; FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the attachment member shown in FIG. 3, which is taken along a line B-B; FIG. 7 is an external perspective view of the surveillance camera during attachment to a wall surface; and FIG. 8 is a perspective view of the base member during attachment to the wall surface. DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments in which an attachment member for a camera according to the present disclosure is specifically disclosed will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate. However, unnecessarily detailed description may be omitted. For example, detailed description of already well-known matters and redundant description of substantially the same configuration may be omitted. This is to avoid unnecessary redundancy of the following description and facilitate understanding of a person skilled in the art. The accompanying drawings and the following description are provided for a person skilled in the art to sufficiently understand the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the subject matter described in the claims. First, a surveillance camera C1 and an attachment member 10 during attachment to a pole will be described with reference to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of the surveillance camera C1 according to an embodiment. The surveillance camera C1 (an example of a camera) according to the embodiment is fixed to the attachment member 10 by attaching an attachment portion 20 to attachment holes 17A, 17B, and 17C (see FIG. 4) of a camera attachment portion 12C of the attachment member 10. The surveillance camera C1 is attached to a pole PL or a wall W that is an attachment target (that is, an installation target) via
