Embodiment 1

[0039] An unmanned aerial vehicle battery replacement platform, including a control system, a battery replacement inner cabin 1 with a landing opening 8 formed on the top, a biaxial correction device arranged on the landing opening 8, and a battery replacement inner cabin 1 The lifting device, the battery replacement device 6 and the battery management device 7, wherein:

[0040] The biaxial correction device includes four correction rods 5 corresponding to the four sides of the landing opening 8 and four linear drive structures 3 correspondingly driving each correction rod 5;

[0041] The lifting device includes a landing platform 2 for the landing of the drone and a lifting drive structure for driving the landing platform 2;

[0042] The lifting device is opposite to the battery management device 7 and is respectively located on both sides of the battery replacement device 6. The battery replacement device 6 includes a Y-axis driving structure, an X-axis driving structure dr...

Embodiment 2

[0053] In order to ensure that the unmanned aerial vehicle lands on the landing platform 2 more accurately, and prevent the unmanned aerial vehicle from following up during the process of disassembling or inserting the battery, two strips are formed on the upper surface of the landing platform 2 to connect with the unmanned aerial vehicle. The corresponding drop grooves 4 of the two bars of the drop frame. The distance between the two landing grooves 4 is the same as the distance between the two bars of the landing gear. The UAV corrects its position under the action of the correction rod 5 until the landing gear at the bottom of the UAV falls into the landing groove 4 to form a positioning .

[0054] More preferably, the inner diameter and length of the landing groove are respectively the same as the thickness and length of the two rods of the landing gear. This ensures that when the UAV is on the landing platform 2, the two rods of the landing gear can be well snapped into ...

Embodiment 3

[0061] In order to ensure the smooth operation of the battery replacement device 6 , two fingers of the manipulator 61 are fixed with a block, and the block can be correspondingly inserted into the slots on both sides of the battery case. Realize the function of fixing the battery when clamping.

[0062] The two sides of the top of the battery shell of the UAV are provided with square card slots, which can be embedded with the blocks of the manipulator, and the bottom of the battery of the UAV is provided with contact electrodes, which can be connected to the rechargeable battery box .

[0063] In order to ensure the smooth operation of this replacement platform, the following is an introduction to each drive structure:

[0064] The linear driving structure 3 is an electric lifting rod, the X-axis driving structure is an X-axis electric push rod 63, and the fixed part of the manipulator 61 is fixed on the driving end of the X-axis electric push rod 63 through a fixed block 62...

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle battery reloading platform based on a manipulator and a reloading method. The unmanned aerial vehicle battery reloading platform comprises a control system, a battery replacement inner cabin of which the top forms a takeoff and landing opening, a double-shaft correcting device arranged on the takeoff and landing opening, and a lifting device, a battery replacement device and a battery management device which are arranged in the battery replacement inner cabin, wherein the double-shaft correcting device comprises four correcting rods and four linear driving structures, wherein the four correcting rods are in one-to-one correspondence with the four edges of the rising and falling opening respectively, and the four linear driving structures correspondingly drive the correcting rods respectively; the lifting device comprises a landing platform for landing of the unmanned aerial vehicle and a lifting driving structure for driving the landing platform; and the lifting device and the battery management device are opposite and located on the two sides of the battery replacement device respectively, and the battery management device comprises at least one rechargeable battery box. According to the invention, accurate battery replacement and rapid charging can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drone maintenance, in particular to a replacement method. Background technique [0002] With the popularity of drones, drones are playing different important roles in people's lives, especially in agriculture, geological exploration, emergency rescue, frontier defense and other industries. Now drone operation, its battery life can not meet the long-term operation, and the time of wired or wireless charging can not meet the requirements of short-term continuous work, and most of them use manual recycling, and continue to work after replacing the battery. [0003] For commercially operated UAVs, a large amount of manpower is required to maintain batches of UAVs, which requires additional manpower, resulting in a waste of manpower and increasing maintenance costs. Contents of the invention [0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a robot-based battery replacement platform for UAVs to so...
