[0002] Based on the flight principle and structure of drones, they can be roughly divided into multi-rotor drones and fixed-wing drones. Fixed-wing drones have a great advantage in the field of drones due to their structural advantages and flight principles.

[0003] In order to avoid the impact of ground effect on drones during takeoff and landing, existing technologies have designed special airports for accommodating vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing drones. After the drones enter the airport, they can be charged or replaced with batteries. However, the technology for replacing batteries for drones needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the problems existing in the prior art of fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport and provides a battery-changing clamp and a fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention is solved by the following technical solutions:

The clamp body includes a pressure rod that can move in the vertical direction and press the upper end surface of the battery on the drone, and also includes a clamping plate that can move relatively in the horizontal direction and clamp both sides of the battery on the drone.

[0007] Preferably, the clamp body includes a horizontally arranged clamp mounting plate, the upper end of the clamping plate constitutes a connecting end mounted on the clamp mounting plate, and the lower end constitutes a clamping end for clamping the battery. A clamping plate driving mechanism installed on the lower surface of the clamp mounting plate is provided between the two clamping plates. The two clamping plates are respectively installed on both sides of the clamping plate driving mechanism and the clamping plate driving mechanism is used to realize the two clamping plates moving toward or away from each other in the horizontal direction.

[0008] Preferably, both clamping plates are provided with locating pins on their clamping ends and on their opposing surfaces, and battery locating holes are provided on the sides of the drone's batteries for the locating pins to insert. The cooperation between the locating pins and the battery locating holes enables the clamping plates to position the batteries, ensuring accurate and stable battery clamping.

[0009] Preferably, a clamping plate slide rail is provided on the lower surface of the clamping jaw mounting plate, arranged horizontally and extending in the lengthwise direction of the clamping plate's movement. The upper end of the clamping plate is connected to the clamping plate slide rail, and the clamping plate can slide on the clamping plate slide rail along the lengthwise direction of the clamping plate and be limited in position along the lengthwise direction of the clamping plate. The provision of the clamping plate slide rail can guide the movement of the clamping plate, ensuring that the clamping plate applies horizontal force to the battery, effectively improving the stability of battery clamping.

[0010] Preferably, both sides of the clamping plate slide rail are provided with elongated slide rail limiting grooves extending along the length of the clamping plate slide rail. A clamping plate slider is provided at the upper end of the clamping plate to engage with the clamping plate slide rail, and a slider limiting protrusion is provided on the inner side of the clamping plate slider to engage with the slide rail limiting groove. The cooperation between the slider limiting protrusion and the slide rail limiting groove ensures the stability of the connection between the clamping plate and the slide rail, preventing the clamping plate from vertically separating from the slide rail.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping plate driving mechanism is a bidirectional screw motor, and the two clamping plates are respectively connected to the driving shafts on both sides of the bidirectional screw motor.

[0012] Preferably, a pressure rod mounting assembly is provided on the clamping jaw mounting plate.

The upper ends of the pressure rods are capable of moving above the clamping jaw mounting plate. The pressure rod mounting assembly further includes a pressure rod limit plate connected between the upper ends of the two pressure rods, the pressure rod limit plate being disposed above the clamping jaw mounting plate. The pressure rod limit plate can limit the axial position of the pressure rod and ensure synchronous movement of the pressure rods at both ends, so that the pressure rods at both ends apply uniform force to the battery, thereby ensuring stable compression of the battery.

[0015] Preferably, the device further includes a clamp positioning assembly, which includes a positioning column 619 provided on the drone, and a guide rod provided on the clamp mounting plate and capable of moving up and down in the vertical direction. The lower end of the guide rod is provided with a positioning block, and the positioning block is provided with a clamp positioning hole that cooperates with the positioning column on the drone.

[0044] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] Fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport, such as Figure 1-Figure 24 As shown, it includes an airport body, and an airport door is provided on one side of the airport body. The airport door includes a front door mechanism 1, and the front door mechanism 1 includes a door body 101. The door body 101 is connected to the airport body through a connecting rod mechanism 102 and can be swung upward and opened under the action of the connecting rod mechanism 102; an apron body 2 is provided in the airport body, which can be horizontally moved out from the door body 101, and the apron body 2 is arranged in the airport body through a multi-stage telescopic guide rail mechanism 3.

[0047] In this embodiment, the front door mechanism 1 includes a door frame 103 arranged on the front side of the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame. A door body 101 is provided at the door frame 103 through a connecting rod mechanism 102. The door body 101 swings upward to open and swings downward to close through the connecting rod mechanism 102.

[0048] The linkage mechanism 102 includes a drive rod 104, both ends of which are rotatably connected to the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame. A bearing seat 112 is provided at the end of the drive rod 104. Bearing seat 112 houses a bearing connected to the drive rod 104. The drive rod 104 is mounted on the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame via bearing seat 112. Bearing seat 112 is attached to the upper end of the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame via bolts or screws. A connecting rod 105 is hingedly connected to each end of the drive rod 104. One end of the connecting rod 105 is hinged to the end of the drive rod 104, and the other end is hinged to the door body 101. The connecting rod 105 is a curved rod that bends away from the door body 101 when the door body 101 is closed. When the door body 101 is closed, the end of the connecting rod 105 hinged to the drive rod 104 is above the end hinged to the door body 101.

[0049] This embodiment also includes a front door driving mechanism 107, which includes a front door driving motor 108 for rotating the driving rod 104.

[0050] The front door drive motor 108 is installed on the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame. A front door drive gear 109 is installed on the drive shaft of the front door drive motor 108, and a front door driven gear 110 engaged with the drive gear is provided on the drive rod 104.

[0051] When opening the door, the front door drive motor 108 is started, and the front door driven gear 110 is driven by the front door drive gear 109. The front door driven gear 110 drives the drive rod 104 to rotate. After the drive rod 104 rotates, it drives the connecting rods 105 at both ends to rotate counterclockwise. At this time, the connecting rod 105 can push the door body 101 outward and drive the door body 101 upward at the same time, so as to realize the upward swing of the door body 101 until the door body 101 moves to the top of the fixed electric fully automatic vertical fixed-wing airport frame, so as to realize the full opening of the door body 101. At this time, the end of the connecting rod 105 hinged to the drive rod 104 is below the end hinged to the door body 101.

[0052] When closing the door, the front door drive motor 108 reverses, causing the connecting rod 105 to rotate clockwise, and the connecting rod 105 drives the door body 101 to move downward and toward the door frame 103 until the door body 101 is completely in the door frame 103, thereby closing the door body 101.

[0053] In this embodiment, the connecting rod mechanism 102 further includes a connecting rod 111 having one end hinged to the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame and the other end hinged to the door body 101. The hinge point between the connecting rod 111 and the door body 101 is located below the hinge point between the connecting rod 105 and the door body 101. The provision of the connecting rod can further enhance the stability of the door body 101 when it is closed, covering the door frame 103. When the door body 101 is open, it provides further support for the door body 101, effectively strengthening the stability of the connection between the door body 101 and the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame.

[0054] In this embodiment, a sealing strip is provided between the door frame 103 and the door body 101 to seal the gap between the door body 101 and the door frame 103. The provision of the sealing strip can achieve a waterproof effect at the door body 101, preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the airport through the opening and closing of the door body 101.

[0055] In this embodiment, the door body 101 is arranged on the front side of the fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame, and the opening and closing of the door body 101 is realized by means of a connecting rod 105. The door body 101 is on the airport side, and foreign objects such as leaves or snow will not gather on the outer surface of the door. The problem of foreign objects being carried into the interior of the cabinet by the opening and closing door can be effectively solved during the opening and closing process. At the same time, the entire door body 101 is only on the front side. Whether it is the door body 101 itself or the stroke required for opening and closing the door body 101, the space they occupy is relatively small, which can greatly save space. At the same time, it also has the characteristics of relatively simple overall production and assembly.

[0056] In this embodiment, the airport is provided with an apron body 2 that can be moved horizontally from the airport gate. The apron body 2 includes an apron base 201 in the shape of a square frame. An apron bottom plate 202 is provided in the middle of the apron base 201. The apron base 201 is provided with a drone centering mechanism 203. The drone centering mechanism 203 includes a horizontal push rod mechanism 204 and a longitudinal push rod mechanism 205 that can push the drone to the center position of the apron body 2.

[0057] In this embodiment, the transverse push rod mechanism 204 includes two transverse push rods 206 arranged along the length direction of the apron body 2 and capable of moving toward or away from each other along the width direction of the apron body 2; the longitudinal push rod mechanism 205 includes two longitudinal push rods 207 arranged along the width direction of the apron body 2 and capable of moving toward or away from each other along the length direction of the apron body 2; and two groups of push rod driving mechanisms for respectively driving the transverse push rods 206 and the longitudinal push rods 207 to move. The push rod driving mechanism includes two relatively parallel driving mechanisms. The rod assembly 208, the two ends of the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207 are respectively connected to the corresponding two side drive rod assemblies 208, the drive rod assembly 208 includes a push rod driving wheel 209 and a left-hand screw rod 210 and a right-hand screw rod 211 arranged on both sides of the push rod driving wheel 209 and connected by a coupling, the two transverse push rods 206 or longitudinal push rods 207 moving in opposite directions or opposite directions are respectively threadedly connected to the left-hand screw rod 210 and the right-hand screw rod 211, wherein the left-hand screw rod 210 and the right-hand screw rod 211 are trapezoidal screw rods or ball screws.

[0058] Under the action of the push rod drive mechanism, the horizontal push rod 206 and the longitudinal push rod 207 are moved, thereby pushing the drone that has landed on the apron floor 202 to the desired position. The control system controls the rotation of the left-hand screw rod 210 and the right-hand screw rod 211, and then accurately controls the push rod to push the drone's travel, ensuring that the drone can be accurately positioned.

[0059] In this embodiment, the push rod drive mechanism includes a push rod drive motor 212, and a driving rotating shaft 213 is connected to the motor shaft of the push rod drive motor 212. The driving rotating shaft 213 is provided with two driving synchronous wheels 214. It also includes a driven rotating shaft 215. The driven rotating shaft 215 is provided with two driven synchronous wheels 216. One of the driving synchronous wheels 214 and the driven synchronous wheel 216 is respectively connected to the push rod drive wheels 209 on the driving rod assemblies 208 on both sides through a synchronous belt, and the other driving synchronous wheel 214 is connected to the other driven synchronous wheel 216 through another synchronous belt.

[0060] For the stability and reliability of transmission, a linkage synchronous wheel 217 is provided between the two active synchronous wheels 214 on the active rotating shaft 213 , and the motor shaft of the push rod driving motor 212 is connected to the linkage synchronous wheel 217 via a synchronous belt.

[0061] In this embodiment, a push rod driving motor 212 is used to achieve synchronous movement of the push rods on both sides in the same direction, which improves the efficiency of the drone centering process, saves costs, and avoids waste of resources. At the same time, compared with the dual-motor drive, this single-motor drive method can effectively simplify the synchronous control system program.

[0062] In this embodiment, the push rod drive mechanism also includes two screw rod mounting seats 218 for mounting the left-hand screw rod 210 and the right-hand screw rod 211. The screw rod mounting seat 218 includes two oppositely arranged screw rod mounting plates 219. The two ends of the left-hand screw rod 210 or the right-hand screw rod 211 are respectively rotatably connected to the two screw rod mounting plates 219. A horizontally arranged guide plate 220 is connected between the two screw rod mounting plates 219. A push rod slide rail 221 is provided on the upper end surface of the guide plate 220. The end of the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207 is provided with a threaded connection seat 222 connected to the left-hand screw rod 210 or the right-hand screw rod 211. The bottom of the threaded connection seat 222 is provided with a push rod slider 223 that can slide on the push rod slide rail 221. The lower end surface of the push rod slider 223 is provided with a push rod slide groove 224 that cooperates with the push rod slide rail 221. The arrangement of the push rod sliding groove 224 and the push rod sliding block 223 can guide the movement of the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207 and can make the movement of the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207 more stable and smooth.

[0063] In this embodiment, a push frame 225 having a longitudinally extending push surface is provided in the middle of the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207. The push frame 225 includes two transverse connecting rods 226 connected to the transverse push rod 206 or the longitudinal push rod 207. A U-shaped frame 227 with a downward opening is connected to the two transverse connecting rods 226. The end surface of the U-shaped frame 227 facing the center of the apron body 2 forms the longitudinally extending push surface. The provision of the push frame 225 provides a longitudinal push surface, enabling the push rod to better propel the drone.

[0064] In addition, the push frame 225 is provided with a pressure plate 230 for limiting the drone and a pressure plate motor 231 for driving the pressure plate 230 to rotate. The pressure plate motor 231 is a DC motor. The pressure plate 230 is L-shaped, one end of which is connected to the motor shaft of the pressure plate motor 231, and the other end constitutes a limiting end for the drone. After the drone is positioned, the DC motor rotates to drive the pressure plate 230 to press the drone to ensure that the drone will not shift when the battery 6 is removed.

[0065] In this embodiment, the helipad floor 202 is a light-transmitting plate with a light panel 228 on its lower surface, ensuring normal drone landing at night. Furthermore, a QR code panel 229 is provided on its upper surface. This QR code panel 229 contains a QR code, allowing drones to locate and land by scanning the QR code.

[0066] In this embodiment, the apron body 2 is arranged in the airport body through a multi-stage telescopic guide rail mechanism 3, and the apron body 2 can be pushed out of the airport body through the door body 101 in a horizontal straight line under the action of the multi-stage telescopic guide rail mechanism 3.

[0067] The multi-stage telescopic guide rail mechanism 3 in this embodiment includes a guide rail fixing seat 301. In this embodiment, the guide rail fixing seat 301 is fixedly installed in a fixed electric fully automatic vertical take-off fixed-wing airport frame, and its relative position in the airport remains unchanged. Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide rail fixing seat 301 can be directly fixed to the lower bottom surface of the airport frame by bolts. The guide rail fixing seat 301 includes a fixing seat body 320, and a first-level guide rail slide seat 304 is arranged on the fixing seat body 320. The guide rail fixing seat 301 also includes two first fixing plates 321 fixed relative to the fixing seat body 320. The two first fixing plates 321 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the movement direction of the apron body 2. When the apron body 2 is fully retracted into the airport, the two first fixing plates 321 are respectively located at the two ends of the apron body 2.

[0068] A primary guide rail 302 capable of horizontal linear movement is provided on the guide rail fixing seat 301, and a secondary guide rail 303 capable of horizontal linear movement is provided on the primary guide rail 302. The primary guide rail 302 and the secondary guide rail 303 have the same movement direction, and the apron body 2 is arranged on the secondary guide rail 303. The apron body 2 can achieve two-stage extension and retraction under the joint action of the primary guide rail 302 and the secondary guide rail 303, thereby solving the problem that the apron body 2 extends a short distance from the airport due to the limited overall length of the airport and the inability to install longer guide rails. In the end, the apron can be extended to a longer distance, ensuring that the fixed-wing will not be blocked or interfered with by the airport structure during takeoff and landing.

[0069] Specifically, in this embodiment, a first-level guide rail slide seat 304 is provided on the guide rail fixing seat 301, and a first-level guide rail slide 305 is provided on the upper end surface of the first-level guide rail slide seat 304. The first-level guide rail 302 includes a first-level movable plate 306, and a first-level guide rail slider 307 capable of sliding in the first-level guide rail slide 305 is provided on the lower end surface of the first-level movable plate 306; a second-level guide rail slide seat 308 is provided on the upper end surface of the first-level movable plate 306, and a second-level guide rail slide seat 308 is provided on the upper end surface of the second-level guide rail slide seat 308, and a second-level guide rail slide 309 is provided on the lower end surface of the second-level guide rail 303. A second-level guide rail slider 310 capable of sliding in the second-level guide rail slide 309 is provided on the lower end surface of the secondary guide rail 303, and the lower end surface of the apron body 2 is fixed on the upper end surface of the secondary guide rail 303.

[0070] The lower end surface of the primary movable plate 306 is provided with a guide rail rack 311, the longitudinal direction of which is arranged along the movement direction of the primary guide rail 302. The plate also includes a guide rail drive motor 312. A guide rail gear 313 is connected to the drive shaft of the guide rail drive motor 312 and is engaged with the guide rail rack 311 to drive the movement of the primary guide rail 302. The cooperation between the guide rail gear 313 and the guide rail rack 311 enables the primary extension and retraction of the apron body 2.

[0071] In this embodiment, a specific structure of the secondary telescopic structure is given: that is, an extension mechanism for driving the secondary guide rail 303 to extend is also provided on the upper end surface of the primary movable plate 306, and the extension mechanism includes a first rotating shaft 314 arranged at the front end portion of the primary movable plate 306 in the extension direction, and a first rotatable synchronous wheel 315 is provided on the first rotating shaft 314, and a first double-sided synchronous belt 316 is engaged with the first synchronous wheel 315. The middle part of the first double-sided synchronous belt 316 passes around the first synchronous wheel 315 and engages with the first synchronous wheel 315, and both ends of the first double-sided synchronous belt 316 extend toward the rear end portion in the extension direction of the primary movable plate 306 and one end is connected to the rear end portion of the secondary guide rail 303 along the extension direction, and the other end is connected to the guide rail fixing seat 301.

[0072] A recovery mechanism for driving the secondary guide rail 303 to retract is also provided on the upper end surface of the first movable plate 306. The recovery mechanism includes a second rotating shaft arranged at the rear end of the first movable plate 306 in the extending direction. The second rotating shaft is provided with a rotatable second synchronous wheel 318. The second synchronous wheel 318 is engaged with a second double-sided synchronous belt 319. The middle part of the second double-sided synchronous belt 319 passes around the second synchronous wheel 318 and engages with the second synchronous wheel 318. Both ends of the second double-sided synchronous belt 319 extend toward the front end in the extending direction of the first movable plate 306 and one end is connected to the front end of the secondary guide rail 303 along the extending direction, and the other end is connected to the guide rail fixing seat 301.

[0073] The ends of the first double-sided synchronous belt 316 and the second double-sided synchronous belt 319 are respectively connected to the first fixed plates 321 at both ends. The front and rear ends of the secondary guide rail 303 are both provided with second fixed plates 322, and the other ends of the first double-sided synchronous belt 316 and the second double-sided synchronous belt 319 are respectively connected to the two second fixed plates 322.

[0074] The secondary telescopic mechanism in this embodiment is realized by a synchronous belt and a synchronous wheel. When the synchronous wheel moves along with the primary movable plate 306 driven by the primary movable plate 306, one end of the synchronous belt on the synchronous wheel will maintain its position due to its connection with the guide rail fixing seat 301. Since the overall length of the synchronous belt remains unchanged, the other end will drive the secondary guide rail 303 to move along with the primary guide rail 302 under the action of the synchronous wheel. The movement stroke of the synchronous belt end is twice the movement stroke of the synchronous wheel. Therefore, the secondary guide rail 303 will continue to move in the extension or retraction direction relative to the primary guide rail 302, realizing the secondary stroke of the apron, fully ensuring that the final apron body 2 can move to a position far enough relative to the airport to avoid interference with fixed-wing take-off and landing.

[0075] At the same time, the secondary telescopic movement in this embodiment is not realized by a separate drive, but is cleverly driven by the primary telescopic movement, which can effectively reduce the driving mechanism, save resources, and thus save costs.

A pressure rod spring 416 is provided between the spring extrusion member 415 and the pressure rod linear bearing 403. The spring extrusion member 415 is sleeved on the pressure rod 408 and can press the pressure rod 408 downward. When it is necessary to compress the battery 6, the pressure rod 408 will move downward under the action of the pressure rod spring 416 compressing the spring extrusion member 415 until it is pressed against the upper end surface of the battery 6, thereby achieving the compression of the pressure rod 408 on the battery 6.

[0086] In this embodiment, there are two pressure rods 408, and the two pressure rods 408 can respectively press the two ends of the battery 6 along the length direction to ensure the uniform and stable force exerted by the pressure rods 408 on the battery 6. In addition, the upper end of the pressure rod 408 can move above the clamping claw mounting plate 410. The pressure rod mounting assembly also includes a pressure rod limiting plate 417 connected between the upper ends of the two pressure rods 408.

The guide rod 419 is provided with a positioning recovery spring 424 set between the positioning block 420 and the positioning linear bearing 422. In addition, the upper end of the guide rod 419 is also provided with a sensor for detecting whether the positioning column 619 is inserted into the jaw positioning hole 421. The sensor in this embodiment is a slot-type photoelectric sensor, which is used to detect the descending distance of the guide rod 419 to determine whether the positioning column 619 is inserted into the jaw positioning hole 421.

[0090] When the battery 6 of the drone needs to be replaced, the battery-changing clamp 401 is moved to the battery compartment of the drone through the clamp driving mechanism, so that the clamp positioning hole 421 on the positioning plate is aligned with the positioning column 619 on the drone, and then the battery-changing clamp 401 is moved down from top to bottom until the positioning column 619 is positioned in the clamp positioning hole 421. Since the positioning block 420 is connected by a guide rod 419 that can move up and down, and because the positioning block 420 can adapt to drones of different heights, it is ensured that the positioning block 420 can be smoothly positioned on the surface of the drone. After the positioning column 619 is inserted into the clamp positioning hole 421, the first positioning between the battery-changing clamp 401 and the drone battery compartment 617 is realized, which provides the prerequisite for subsequent clamping of the battery 6.

[0091] Then, the lower end of the pressure rod 408 is pressed against the upper end surface of the battery 6 under the action of the pressure rod spring 416, and the clamping plate 409 moves toward each other under the action of the clamping plate driving mechanism, clamping the side of the battery 6, and allowing the positioning pin 425 to be inserted into the battery positioning hole 601, thereby realizing the second positioning of the battery 6 by the battery replacement clamp 401. Through the two positionings and the pressing of the pressure rod 408 and the clamping of the clamping plate 409, the stability of the battery 6 clamped by the battery replacement clamp 401 and the accuracy of replacing the battery 6 from the drone battery compartment 617 to the battery replacement compartment during the battery replacement process can be fully guaranteed.

[0099] When the UAV enters the airport and needs to replace the battery 6, first align the clamp positioning hole 421 of the positioning block 420 on the clamp positioning assembly 418 with the positioning column 619 on the UAV, and then move the battery-changing clamp 401 downward from top to bottom until the positioning column 619 is positioned in the clamp positioning hole 421, so that the battery-changing clamp 401 is positioned in the battery compartment 617 of the UAV; then insert the positioning pin 425 on the clamping plate 409 into the battery positioning hole 601 on the side wall of the battery 6 to realize the positioning between the battery-changing clamp 401 and the battery 6, and then connect The clamping plate 409 applies force to the outer surface of the movable lock 605, causing the movable lock 605 to overcome the action of the return spring 610 and rotate around the connecting shaft 607. At this time, the battery fastening portion 608 at the lower end of the movable lock 605 follows the movable lock 605 and moves toward the inside of the battery 6, realizing the unlocking between the battery fastening portion 608 and the drone fastening portion 618 in the drone battery compartment 617. At this time, the battery-changing clamp 401 can remove the battery 6 from the drone battery compartment 617. After removal, it can be moved into the airport battery compartment in the airport for charging. By cooperating with the battery 6 itself and the battery-changing clamp 401, the battery 6 is unlocked from the drone battery compartment 617 and the battery 6 is clamped.
