A drone nest for a smart agricultural experimental field

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of drone technology and discloses a drone nest for a smart agricultural experimental field, comprising a housing, a placement platform installed inside the housing, and a charging area provided on the placement platform. Both sides of the housing are provided with opening and closing mechanisms. The drone nest for the smart agricultural experimental field, through the provision of a first adjustment mechanism, a second adjustment mechanism, and a drive mechanism, starts a motor to drive a driving wheel to rotate, which drives a transmission belt to rotate via a driven wheel, causing a stabilizing frame to drive a first push plate to rotate horizontally via a movable block. Starting a rotating motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate can also adjust the height of the first push plate, allowing the drone on the placement platform to make a primary directional adjustment. Simultaneously, starting a rotating motor to drive a screw rod to rotate allows the movable frame to drive a second push plate to move, allowing the drone to make a secondary directional adjustment. This allows the landed drone to be placed in the charging area for subsequent charging and maintenance operations.

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and in particular to a UAV nest for a smart agricultural experimental field. Background Art

[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is an unmanned aircraft that is controlled by a radio remote control device and a self-contained program control device, or is operated completely or intermittently autonomously by an onboard computer.

[0003] At present, most agricultural experiments are carried out in smart agricultural test fields. In order to facilitate the intelligent management of farmland, drones are usually used to assist in cultivation. For some intelligent drones, they are mostly parked in drone nests for charging and other maintenance after landing. However, due to the operations of different operators, most of them cannot be accurately parked in the charging area in the nest, which makes subsequent charging inconvenient. For this reason, a drone nest for smart agricultural test fields is proposed. Summary of the Invention
