[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0035] Reference Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a fastening structure for a smart battery 1 in a drone, which is used to install the smart battery 1 inside the drone's fuselage frame 2. The structure of the smart battery 1 can be specially designed according to this application, or a shell conforming to the structure of this application can be installed around the smart battery 1 for assembly. The number of fastening structures in a single drone is determined by the number of smart batteries 1. A single fastening structure includes a battery slide rail 3, a battery cover 4, a battery handle 5, a C-shaped buckle 6, and a buckle base 7.

[0036] The battery slide rail 3 is located within the body frame 2. The battery slide rail 3 is an enclosing type, with at least one pair of symmetrical surfaces or one pair of adjacent surfaces each equipped with a limiting part 31. The positions of the limiting parts 31 on different surfaces are not equal. The side of the smart battery 1 or its matching outer casing has a positioning part 11 corresponding to the limiting part 31. The limiting part 31 can be an inwardly protruding ridge, in which case the positioning part 11 is a groove corresponding to the ridge. In this embodiment, the limiting parts 31 are symmetrically arranged, with two limiting parts 31 on each surface. Simultaneously, there are also two positioning parts 11 arranged along the top and bottom surfaces of the smart battery 1. The distance between two limiting parts 31 is not equal to the distance between two positioning parts 11, thus preventing errors during battery insertion. The smart battery 1 is slidably mounted within the battery slide rail 3. The body frame 2 has a socket around the smart battery 1 for insertion. The battery cover 4 is located on one side of the smart battery 1. Inside the battery cover 4 is a battery switch button 41 and an indicator light 42. To ensure the sealing of the indicator light 42, a guide light column is provided at the light-emitting point of the indicator light 42. The guide light column transmits its light to the surface of the battery cover 4 and forms a sealed connection with the surface of the battery cover 4. The surface of the battery switch button 41 is covered with a silicone layer, which is sealed to the surface of the battery cover 4. The smart battery 1 connects to the socket via the plug of the battery cover 4 to transfer electrical energy. The battery handle 5 is rotatably connected to both sides of the battery cover 4. Specifically, a pre-embedded nut is provided inside the battery cover 4, and a bolt is provided between the battery handle 5 and the battery cover 4. The bolt connects to the pre-embedded nut to achieve the connection between the battery handle 5 and the battery cover 4. A return spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft of the bolt, providing a pre-tightening force to the side of the battery handle 5 contacting the side of the battery cover 4. To increase the tightness of the connection between the battery cover 4 and the battery slide rail 3, a waterproof adhesive strip 8 is provided around the side of the battery cover 4 near the battery track. One end of the C-shaped buckle 6 is coaxially arranged with the rotation axis of the battery handle 5. The battery handle 5 and the C-shaped buckle 6 are preferably integrally formed. Two buckle seats 7 are respectively located on both sides of the body frame 2 and correspond to the C-shaped buckle 6. Rotating the battery handle 5 drives the C-shaped buckle 6 to connect with the buckle seats 7 to fix the smart battery 1. The buckle seat 7 can be a straight column mounted on the body frame 2. In this embodiment, the buckle seat 7 is C-shaped, and its opening overlaps with the opening of the C-shaped buckle 6 to achieve the connection between the two. When the C-shaped buckle 6 and the buckle seat 7 are initially inserted, the engagement angle is oblique, which facilitates the smooth insertion of the handle and presses the battery and the waterproof adhesive strip 8.

[0037] Working principle: When inserting the battery, lift the battery handle 5 and place the smart battery 1 or the smart battery 1 with a casing into the battery slide rail 3 and push it in smoothly to the bottom. Rotate the battery handle 5 so that the C-shaped buckle 6 snaps into the buckle seat 7. Then press the battery handle 5 into place to complete the fixation. The placement and fixation of the smart battery 1 can be completed in one operation, which is convenient, fast, safe and efficient. When removing the battery, flip the battery handle 5 45 degrees to release the C-shaped buckle 6 and then pull out the smart battery 1 smoothly.
