Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of emergency rescue equipment, and in particular to a lifesaving device throwing system. Background Art

[0002] In emergency rescue operations in oceans, rivers and other waters, lifebuoys carried by drones are often used to reach the destination. Drones will throw the lifebuoys near the drowning person to achieve the purpose of rescue. Drones generally throw the lifebuoys they carry directly. After the lifebuoys are dropped, the lifebuoys slowly descend until they fall to the water surface. During the falling process of the lifebuoys, factors such as wind force will affect the attitude stability of the lifebuoys. Coupled with the adverse effect of positioning accuracy, it may be difficult to accurately drop the lifebuoys. If the lifebuoys are not dropped in place, they cannot accurately reach the drowning person's location, delaying the rescue opportunity and causing the failure of the rescue operation.

[0017] The beneficial effects brought about by the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention are:

[0018] 1. A life-saving device throwing system of the present invention is installed on a drone, and a first motor drives a first gear to drive a first rack to move upward, and drives a spring plate to move upward to compress a first elastic member, and when the first rack moves to a predetermined position, a trigger block is clamped with a clamping slot on the first rack to complete energy storage; when it is necessary to throw a life buoy, a second motor drives a connecting rod to pull the trigger block to separate it from the clamping slot, and the first rack and the spring plate are released, and the restoring force of the first elastic member drives the spring plate to move downward, pushing the life buoy to eject the life buoy downward, and under the action of the ejection, the life buoy quickly falls toward the target position, so that the life buoy quickly and accurately reaches the vicinity of the drowning person, thereby improving the accuracy and speed of the drone in throwing the life buoy and reducing the probability of failure in rescuing the drowning person.

[0019] 2.

After the lifebuoy is dropped, when it falls in the air, the high-speed rotating rotor has a large angular momentum. According to the gyro effect, it can maintain its posture in the air and fall in a vertical posture. After the lifebuoy falls into the water, the end close to the rotating mechanism is heavier and will enter the water first. The water quickly fills the outer shell through the water inlet hole to achieve rapid deceleration. The decelerating rotating mechanism cannot keep the lifebuoy vertical. Finally, the lifebuoy floats horizontally on the water. In this way, the drone only needs to drop the lifebuoy just above the drowning person to make the lifebuoy fall accurately near the drowning person, thereby improving the accuracy of the lifebuoy dropped by the drone and reducing the mortality rate of drowning people.

[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 , 2 3. An embodiment of the present invention provides a life-saving device throwing system, which can be installed on the bottom of a drone and is used for the drone to throw a lifebuoy 1 near a drowning person. The system mainly includes a lifebuoy 1, a launching mechanism 2 and a triggering mechanism 3.

[0037] like Figure 7 As shown, a fixing bracket 102 is provided on the upper portion of the life buoy 1 , and the fixing bracket 102 is fixedly connected to the life buoy 1 . The fixing bracket 102 is used to bear the ejection force to drive the life buoy 1 to move.

[0038] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the ejection mechanism 2 includes a frame 201, a first elastic member 204, a spring plate 205, a first gear 208, a first rack 203 and a first motor 202. The upper end of the first elastic member 204 is connected to the frame 201, and the lower end is connected to the spring plate 205. The first elastic member 204 can be a spring. The frame 201 and the spring plate 205 are both arranged horizontally, the first elastic member 204 is arranged vertically, the spring plate 205 is located above the fixed bracket 102, the first rack 203 is arranged vertically and connected to the spring plate 205, and the first gear 208 is connected to the first motor 202 and meshes with the first rack 203.

[0039] The first motor 202 can drive the first gear 208 to rotate, and the first gear 208 meshes with the first rack 203 to drive the first rack 203 to move vertically. When the first rack 203 moves upward, it drives the spring plate 205 to move upward to compress the first elastic member 204. In order to make the first rack 203 move stably in the vertical direction, the first rack 203 can be installed on a vertical guide rail so that it can only move in the vertical direction.

[0040] Recombination Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the trigger mechanism 3 mainly includes a trigger block 301, a second elastic member 302, a pull rod 303 and a second motor 304. The first rack 203 is provided with a clamping slot 207. The trigger block 301 is rotatably connected to the frame 201 and connected to the frame 201 through the second elastic member 302. Here, the clamping slot 207 is arranged on a side of the first rack 203 close to the trigger block 301. A fixed shaft 206 is arranged on a side of the frame 201 close to the first rack 203. The trigger block 301 is rotatably sleeved on the fixed shaft 206 and can be clamped into the clamping slot 207. The second elastic member 302 can be a spring, and the trigger block 301 is pulled to stably clamp the clamping slot 207.

[0041] One end of the pull rod 303 can be rotatably connected to the trigger block 301, and the other end is connected to the second motor 304. After the first elastic member 204 is compressed to a predetermined length, the slot 207 can be just inserted into and clamped, and the second elastic member 302 applies a pulling force to the trigger block 301, so that the trigger stably presses against the first rack 203, so that the first elastic member 204 remains in a compressed state, and energy storage is completed. The second motor 304 can drive the pull rod 303 to rotate, so that the pull rod 303 pulls the trigger block 301 to separate from the slot 207, releases the first rack 203, and drives the spring plate 205 to move downward under the driving force of the restoring force of the first elastic member 204, and the spring plate 205 pushes the fixed bracket 102 downward, thereby ejecting the lifebuoy 1.

[0042] It should be noted that in order to prevent the first gear 208 from hindering the downward movement of the first rack 203, the first gear 208 can be selected as a half gear, that is, the teeth are only set on a part of the circumference. After the first elastic member 204 is compressed to a predetermined length, the first gear 208 and the first rack 203 are no longer engaged, but are in a separated state.

[0043] In some embodiments, in order to ensure that the trigger block 301 is stably inserted into the slot 207, the slot 207 is a V-shaped slot, and a V-shaped clamping joint 306 is provided on the upper end of the trigger block 301 near the first rack 203, and the clamping joint 306 can be inserted into the slot 207. The surface of the slot 207 and the surface of the clamping joint 306 can also be treated with arc surface treatment to facilitate smoother insertion.

[0044] The shape of the trigger block 301 can be flexibly selected according to the actual application scenario. For example, in the present embodiment, the trigger block 301 is a triangle, one vertex of which forms the clamping joint 306 , and the other vertex is connected to the frame 201 through the second elastic member 302 .

[0045] In some embodiments, the output end of the second motor 304 is connected to the crank 305, and one end of the pull rod 303 is rotatably connected to the crank 305. The second motor 304 drives the crank 305 to rotate, and the crank 305 drives the pull rod 303 to rotate, thereby driving the trigger block to rotate around the fixed axis 206, changing the position of the trigger block 301, so that it can leave the slot 207.

[0046] like Figure 2 and 6 As shown, a life-saving device throwing system of the present invention also includes a launching frame 4, which includes two side brackets 401, wherein the two side brackets 401 are respectively located on the two sides of the fixed bracket 102, and the two sides of the fixed bracket 102 are provided with positioning columns 107, and the two positioning columns 107 are arranged symmetrically, and the positioning columns 107 can select spring plungers. Each of the side brackets 401 is provided with a guide groove 408, and the two positioning columns 107 are respectively inserted into the guide grooves 408. The guide groove is Y-shaped, so that the positioning column 107 can be smoothly inserted into the guide groove 408 to complete the automatic loading of the life buoy 1. After the two positioning columns 107 are inserted into the two guide grooves 408, the fixed bracket 102 is in a predetermined position, that is, the life buoy 1 is located at a predetermined launching position. Preferably, a positioning groove 409 is provided at the rear end of the guide groove 408, and the end of the positioning column 107 can slide along the guide groove 408 to the positioning groove 409 and be embedded in the positioning groove 409. When the spring plate 205 pushes the fixing bracket 102 downward, the two positioning posts 107 are compressed and slide out of the two positioning grooves 409 respectively, thereby being separated from the side bracket 401 and stably ejected downward with the lifebuoy 1 .

[0047] Taking into account that a life-saving device throwing system of the present invention needs to be repeatedly loaded and a new lifebuoy 1 needs to be loaded after throwing the lifebuoy 1, and the lifebuoy 1 is thrown multiple times, the launching frame 4 also includes a second gear 403, two second racks 402, two mechanical claws and a third motor. The upper end of each side bracket 401 is connected to one of the second racks 402, and the lower end is connected to one of the mechanical claws. The two second racks 402 are arranged opposite to each other up and down, and the second gear 403 is meshed with the two second racks 402. The third motor is connected to the second gear 403 to drive the two second racks 402 to move in opposite directions, so that the two mechanical claws are relatively close or far away, so that the two mechanical claws are opened to allow the lifebuoy 1 to enter, and the mechanical claws are closed to hold the lifebuoy 1, and then the fixed bracket 102 on the upper part of the lifebuoy 1 is reassembled to the two side brackets 401 through the mechanical arm.

[0048] The mechanical claw can be flexible or according to the actual application scenario. As described in this embodiment, the mechanical claw includes an upper bracket 404, a lower bracket 405, a universal joint 406, a driving wheel 407 and a fourth motor. The upper end of the upper bracket 404 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side bracket 401, and the lower end is rotatably connected to the upper end of the lower bracket 405. A torsion spring is also provided between the lower end of the upper bracket 404 and the upper end of the lower bracket 405. The driving wheel 407 is rotatably connected to the lower bracket 405. The driving wheel 407 is also connected to the universal joint 406, and the fourth motor is connected to the universal joint 406. Here, the upper bracket 404 and the lower bracket 405 are both U-shaped brackets. The lower end of the upper bracket 404 is inserted into the upper end of the lower bracket 405 and is rotatably connected through a connecting shaft. The torsion spring is arranged on the connecting shaft and connects the upper bracket 404 and the lower bracket 405. The torsion spring applies torque to the lower bracket 405, so that the lower bracket 405 can rotate adaptively and maintain a stable state. The universal joint 406 is located inside the upper bracket 404 and the lower bracket 405. The upper end of the universal joint 406 can rotatably penetrate the upper bracket 404. The fourth motor is installed on the upper bracket 404 and connected to the universal joint 406 to drive the universal joint 406 to rotate, thereby driving the driving wheel 407 to rotate. After the two mechanical claws are closed to hold the lifebuoy 1, the two driving wheels 407 are respectively in contact with the two sides of the lifebuoy 1. After that, the rotation of the two driving wheels 407 can drive the lifebuoy 1 to rotate, so that the fixed bracket 102 rotates until the end of the positioning column 107 slides along the guide groove 408 to the positioning groove 409, so that the lifebuoy 1 can be reassembled to the launching frame 4 for throwing again for rescue.

[0049] In addition, in order to make the lifebuoy 1 land vertically more accurately after being ejected, the lifebuoy 1 includes a lifebuoy body 101, two permanent magnets and a rotating mechanism, the lifebuoy body 101 is installed at the bottom of the fixed bracket 102, the two permanent magnets are installed on the fixed bracket 102 and are arranged opposite to each other up and down, the rotating mechanism includes a shell 103, a rotating shaft 104 and a rotor coil 108, the rotating shaft 104 can be rotatably installed on the fixed bracket 102, the shell 103 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 104, the rotor coil 108 is arranged in the shell 103 and sleeved on the rotating shaft 104, the rotor coil 108 is located between the two permanent magnets, and the shell 103 is provided with a plurality of water inlet holes 109.

[0050] For details, please refer to Figure 7 and 8 The two permanent magnets are mounted on the fixed bracket 102 and arranged opposite to each other up and down. The two permanent magnets 105 are located above the lifebuoy body 101, and the opposite ends of the two permanent magnets have opposite magnetic properties, that is, the opposite ends of the two permanent magnets are N poles and S poles respectively, so that a stable external permanent magnetic field can be formed.

[0051] Please refer to Fig. 9 The rotating mechanism includes a shell 103, a rotating shaft 104 and a rotor coil 108. The rotating shaft 104 can be rotatably installed on the fixed bracket 102. The shell 103 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 104. The rotor coil 108 is arranged in the shell 103 and sleeved on the rotating shaft 104. The rotor coil 108 is located between the two permanent magnets. The shell 103 is provided with a plurality of water inlet holes 109.

[0052] A rectangular frame is provided on the upper part of the fixed bracket 102, and the rotating shaft 104 is arranged horizontally and rotatably passes through the opposite sides of the rectangular frame at both ends. The two permanent magnets 105 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the rotating shaft 104 and have opposite magnetic properties, and the two permanent magnets 105 are respectively fixedly mounted on the upper surface and the lower surface of the inner wall of the rectangular frame.

[0053] The two ends of the rotating shaft 104 respectively penetrate the two sides of the fixed bracket 102, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 104 are provided with brushes 106, and the brushes 106 are connected to the rotor coil 108 through wires. The rotor coil 108 is powered by the two brushes 106, and the rotation of the brushes 106 can cause the direction of the DC current to change periodically, forming a periodic electromagnetic field around the rotor coil 108. The rotor coil 108 accelerates the rotation under the combined action of the periodic electromagnetic field and the external permanent magnetic field, and drives the housing 103 to rotate. In order to make the housing 103 rotate stably, the housing 103 is a hollow cylinder, and the housing 103 is coaxially arranged with the rotating shaft 104. In this embodiment, a power supply connector is provided on the inner side of the side bracket 401, and the power supply connector is connected to the brush 106. By arranging a power supply line inside the side bracket 401, DC power is input to the power supply connector, thereby powering the rotor coil 108.

[0054] After the lifebuoy body 101 falls into the water, the end closer to the rotating mechanism will enter the water first, and the water will quickly fill the shell 103 through the water inlet holes 109 to achieve rapid deceleration. In order to make it easier and faster for water to penetrate the shell 103, the water inlet holes 109 are long holes arranged along the axial direction of the shell 103, and the water inlet holes 109 are arranged around the shell 103 at intervals.

[0055] When a life-saving device throwing system of the present invention is installed at the bottom of a drone, the frame 201, the first motor 202 and the second motor 304 are fixedly installed on the drone, the first rack 203 can be vertically slidably installed on the drone, and the two side brackets 401 can be horizontally slidably installed on the drone.

[0056] During emergency rescue, the first gear 208 is first driven to rotate by the first motor 202, so that the first rack 203 moves vertically upward, driving the spring plate 205 to move vertically upward to squeeze the first elastic member 204. After the first elastic member 204 is compressed to a predetermined length, the clamping slot 207 can just fit into and clamp the clamping slot 207. The second elastic member 302 applies a pulling force to the trigger block 301, so that the trigger stably presses the first rack 203, so that the first elastic member 204 remains in a compressed state, and the first elastic member 204 completes energy storage. The battery carried by the drone transmits direct current, the rotor coil 108 rotates, and the rotation of the rotor coil 108 drives the rotation of the shaft 104. The brush 106 changes the direction of the current, thereby keeping the direction of the electromagnetic force on the rotor coil 108 unchanged, and the rotor coil 108 can accelerate the rotation in a fixed direction, so that the rotating mechanism completes energy storage.

[0057] After the drone transports the life-saving device throwing system to the target location, the second motor 304 is controlled to drive the pull rod 303 to rotate, so that the pull rod 303 pulls the trigger block 301 to separate from the slot 207, releases the first rack 203, and the first elastic member 204 resumes driving to push the spring plate 205 downward, and the spring plate 205 pushes the fixed bracket 102 downward, thereby ejecting the lifebuoy 1.

[0058] And the direct current input by the rotor coil 108 is disconnected, and the rotating mechanism rotating at a high speed has a large angular momentum. According to the gyro effect, the life buoy 1 can maintain its posture in the air and fall in a vertical posture until it falls to the water surface near the drowning person; finally, after the life buoy 1 falls into the water, the end close to the rotating mechanism is heavier and will enter the water first, and the water will quickly fill the shell 103 through the water inlet hole 109 to achieve rapid deceleration, and the decelerating rotating mechanism cannot maintain the life buoy 1 vertical, and finally the life buoy 1 floats horizontally on the water. Since the resistance of water is much greater than the air resistance, the rotating mechanism can stop in a short time when the life buoy 1 reaches the water surface. At this time, the life buoy 1 will no longer remain upright due to the angular momentum of the rotor coil 108, and the fallen life buoy 1 is convenient for the drowning person to grasp, thereby completing the lifesaving.
