DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The technical solution in the embodiment of the present application is to solve the problem of installation difficulties and difficulty in meeting assembly requirements caused by the lack of corresponding fixing devices in the above engine assembly process. The overall idea is as follows:

[0023] See also Figure 1 , an engine assembly device for a drone, including a support component 100 and a mounting component 200.

[0024] Among them, the installation component 200 is used to conveniently fix the engine, and the engine can be assembled from six directions. The support component 100 can be used to conveniently adjust the assembly angle, improve the assembly efficiency, and help ensure that the torque of each engine fixing bolt is tightened as required. The entire lifting process is relatively easy, labor-saving and safe, and one person can complete the assembly.

[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 4The support assembly 100 includes a support rod 110, a rotating base 120, a rotating connector 130 and a latch 140. The rotating base 120 is rotatably connected to one end of the support rod 110, and the other end of the support rod 110 is rotatably connected to the rotating connector 130. Two latches 140 are provided, and the two latches 140 are movably passed through the two ends of the support rod 110 and are pin-connected with the rotating base 120 and the rotating connector 130. The installation assembly 200 includes a rear connecting plate 210, a connecting rod 220 and a front connecting plate 230. The front connecting plate 230 is penetrated with a clearance hole 240 and a mounting hole 250, and the rear connecting plate 210 is penetrated with a through hole 260 corresponding to the clearance hole 240. Here, after four bolts are passed through the four holes on the engine case and screwed into the four mounting holes 250 on the front of the front connecting plate 230, the engine top, left, right and front parts can be assembled, and then the pin 140 on the rotating connecting piece 130 is pulled out and the front connecting plate 230 is rotated 180 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise to assemble the engine bottom parts, and then the pin 140 on the rotating base 120 is pulled out and the front connecting plate 230 is rotated horizontally 180 degrees to assemble the engine rear parts. During assembly, the rear engine parts can be avoided through the give way hole 240 in the middle position of the front connecting plate 230, and an external hexagonal wrench can be inserted through the through hole 260 on the rear connecting plate 210 for tightening and assembly. In summary, this assembly can stably fix the engine and help ensure that the torque of each fixing bolt of the engine is tightened as required. The entire lifting process is relatively easy, labor-saving and safe, and one person can complete the assembly.

[0026] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support rod 110 includes a support plate 111 and a column 112, and the support plate 111 is fixedly connected to the column 112. Here, the column 112 and the support plate 111 are fixedly connected by conventional fasteners, and are combined into an L shape, which is low in cost and can adjust the support center of gravity of the engine.

[0027] See also Figure 3 The rotating base 120 includes a mounting seat 121, a screw A122 and a gasket A123. The mounting seat 121 is movably plugged with the support plate 111. The screw A122 movably penetrates the gasket A123 and is screwed with the mounting seat 121. The gasket A123 movably fits the support plate 111. Here, the T-shaped mounting seat 121 is inserted into one end of the support plate 111, and the gasket A123 is tightened on the mounting seat 121 by the screw A122 to limit the support plate 111, so that the support plate 111 and the mounting seat 121 can rotate freely.

[0028] See also Figure 3The support plate 111 is provided with a pin hole A, and the corresponding plug pin 140 is movable through the pin hole A and is pinned to the mounting seat 121. Here, there are four pin holes A, and the plug pin 140 is inserted into the corresponding pin hole A to achieve rotation at intervals of 90 degrees.

[0029] See also Figure 4 The rotating connecting member 130 includes a trapezoidal body 131, a gasket B132 and a nut 133. One end of the trapezoidal body 131 is provided with a thread that is screwed to the nut 133. The trapezoidal body 131 is movably plugged with the column 112, and the gasket B132 is movably fitted to the trapezoidal body 131. Here, the two ends of the trapezoidal body 131 are cross-shaped and threaded, respectively, and the middle section is cylindrical. The cylindrical section of the trapezoidal body 131 is inserted into the column 112, and the gasket B132 is tightened on the trapezoidal body 131 through the nut 133, and the column 112 is limited, so that the column 112 and the trapezoidal body 131 can rotate freely.

[0030] See also Figure 4 The other end of the trapezoidal body 131 is set in a cross shape, and the rotating connecting member 130 also includes screws B134, and four screws B134 are set. All screws B134 are movable through the cross end of the trapezoidal body 131 and are screwed to the rear connecting plate 210. Here, the cross end is fixed to the rear connecting plate 210 by four screws B134 to achieve stable fixation and avoid the through hole 260 on the rear connecting plate 210. It should be noted that the column 112 is also provided with an avoidance groove at the corresponding position, so that the tool can pass through the through hole 260 without being blocked by the column 112 to contact the engine.

[0031] See also Figure 4 The column 112 is provided with a pin hole B, and the corresponding latch 140 is movable through the pin hole B and is pinned to the trapezoidal body 131. Here, one pin hole A is provided on the column 112, and four corresponding pin holes A are radially provided on the trapezoidal body 131. By inserting the latch 140 into the corresponding pin hole A, rotation at intervals of 90 degrees can be achieved.

[0032] See also Figure 4 The connecting rod 220 includes a screw C221 and a sleeve 222. There are four screws C221 and four sleeves 222. Both ends of all sleeves 222 are movably pressed against the front connecting plate 230 and the rear connecting plate 210. Each screw C221 movably penetrates the rear connecting plate 210 and the corresponding sleeve 222 is screwed to the front connecting plate 230. Here, the sleeve 222 is used to maintain the distance between the front connecting plate 230 and the rear connecting plate 210. The screw C221 is used to achieve a detachable effect, so that it is convenient to replace the sleeves 222 of different lengths according to different specifications of the engine, so as to facilitate assembly and use.

[0033] When the present application is used, four bolts are passed through the four holes on the engine case and then screwed into the four mounting holes 250 on the front of the front connecting plate 230, so that the engine top, left, right and front parts can be assembled, and then the latch 140 on the rotating connecting piece 130 is pulled out and the front connecting plate 230 is rotated 180 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise to assemble the engine bottom parts, and then the latch 140 on the rotating base 120 is pulled out and the front connecting plate 230 is rotated horizontally 180 degrees to assemble the engine rear parts. During assembly, the rear engine parts can be avoided through the clearance hole 240 in the middle position of the front connecting plate 230, and the external hexagonal wrench is inserted through the through hole 260 on the rear connecting plate 210 for tightening and assembly. This assembly can stably fix the engine and help ensure that the torque of each fixing bolt of the engine is tightened as required. The entire lifting process is relatively easy, labor-saving and safe, and one person can complete the assembly.

[0034] In summary, the present application utilizes the front connecting plate 230, the rear connecting plate 210, the through hole 260 and the clearance hole 240 to conveniently fix the engine, and the engine can be assembled from six directions. By utilizing the rotating connecting piece 130 and the rotating base 120, the assembly angle can be conveniently adjusted to improve the assembly efficiency, and help ensure that the torque of each fixing bolt of the engine is tightened as required. The entire lifting process is relatively easy, labor-saving and safe, and one person can complete the assembly.
