Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of drone hangars, and in particular to an antifreeze device for drone hangar doors. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the internet, drones are finding widespread application in numerous fields across modern society, including forestry, power grids, maritime security, and surveying and mapping. Drones can perform tasks such as reconnaissance, detection, and inspection. However, a single drone operation system still requires extensive personnel support, and these personnel possess a high level of expertise. This means that a single drone operation system does not achieve true unmanned operation. Therefore, the need for a drone hangar system—a drone operation system that can operate without human intervention—has emerged.
[0003] In recent years, drone hangar systems have gradually gained popularity. These systems integrate automated drone homing, storage, maintenance, and charging functions. The entire drone operation process is controlled by the system itself, eliminating the need for human intervention. Currently, drone hangar systems are primarily used for multi-rotor drones, and most are consumer-grade.
[0004] Conventional drone hangars consist of a hangar frame, within which are located a landing platform, a lifting mechanism, and a power supply. An opening is located at the top of the hangar frame, where a hangar door mechanism is installed. This door controls the opening and closing of the hangar. When the hangar is opened, drones inside can fly out.
[0005] In the existing technology, drone hangars are used to place drones for regular surveys of specific geographical environments. In winter, when surveying specific geographical areas, especially in some desert environments, the temperature fluctuates greatly between day and night, and water accumulates between the hangar door and the hangar frame. When night falls, the hangar door and the hangar will freeze, making it impossible to open the hangar door normally. Summary of the Invention

When the hangar is used in a cold area, it can heat the area between the hangar frame and the hangar door, thereby achieving antifreeze and anti-freeze effects and preventing the hangar door from freezing.

Furthermore, an electric heating plate positioned within a built-in slot heats the antifreeze plate, enhancing heating and improving the antifreeze effect when the hangar door is frozen or at relatively low temperatures.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] Example
[0026] The present invention provides an antifreeze device for the door of a UAV hangar, see Figure 1-Figure 3 The invention comprises a hangar frame 100, wherein a hangar cavity 110 is formed inside the hangar frame 100; an operation opening 120 for taking off or landing of a drone is formed on the upper side of the hangar frame 100; a hangar door 200 is slidably provided on the upper side of the hangar frame 100 for opening or closing the operation opening 120; a heating mechanism 300 is provided inside the hangar frame 100; and a heat dissipation component 400 connected to the heating mechanism 300 is provided on the side of the hangar frame 100 close to the operation opening 120.
[0027] A vertical mounting groove 130 is provided on the inner side of the hangar frame 100 along the vertical side wall, and a heating mechanism 300 is installed in the mounting groove 130; the heating mechanism 300 includes an electric heating wire 310 fixed in the mounting groove 130, and a heat conducting plate 320 is sealed at one end of the mounting groove 130 close to the hangar cavity 110, and a heat dissipation grille 330 is spaced apart in the vertical direction on the side of the heat conducting plate 320 away from the mounting groove 130; the heat dissipation assembly 400 is fixedly connected to the heat conducting plate 320.
[0028] The heat dissipation assembly 400 includes a heat insulating plate 410 fixed to the inner side of the hangar frame 100 and located on the side of the heat conducting plate 320 near the operating port 120. A heat conducting support plate 420 is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the heat insulating plate 410. The side of the support plate 420 near the heat conducting plate 320 is fixedly connected to the heat conducting plate 320, and the side of the support plate 420 away from the heat conducting plate 320 is higher than the operating port 120, forming a water retaining edge 422. The formed water retaining edge 422 can prevent external rainwater from entering the hangar cavity 110. A chute is formed on the hangar door 200 and located directly above the water retaining edge 422. The chute is located on the path that the water retaining edge 422 passes through when the hangar door 200 is opened or closed.
[0029] An antifreeze plate 430 is integrally formed on the upper side of the support plate 420 , and the antifreeze plate 430 is sealed and fixedly connected to one end of the hangar frame 100 near the operation port 120 . The height of the antifreeze plate 430 is lower than the height of the water retaining edge 422 .
[0030] Specifically, the support plate 420 has a plurality of mounting bars 421 spaced apart along the horizontal length direction at one end close to the heat conducting plate 320 , and a socket 321 is formed on the heat conducting plate 320 and located between the plurality of heat dissipation grilles 330 , and the mounting bars 421 are plugged into the socket 321 .
[0031] A thermal insulation strip 500 is fixed to one end of the hangar frame 100 near the access opening 120. This strip is located on the side of the antifreeze plate 430 facing away from the hangar interior 110. The hangar door 200 abuts against the antifreeze plate 430. The height of the thermal insulation strip 500 is slightly lower than that of the antifreeze plate 430. The thermal insulation strip 500 provides insulation for the antifreeze plate 430.
[0032] More preferably, the side of the antifreeze plate 430 close to the hangar door 200 is an inclined surface, and the height of the inclined surface is higher on the side close to the hangar cavity 110 and lower on the side away from the hangar cavity 110.
[0033] By adopting the above solution, when the hangar is used, the hangar inner cavity 110 is heated and insulated by the heating mechanism 300. During the heating and insulation process, since the support plate 420 is in contact with the heat conducting plate 320 and the support plate 420 is located in the hangar inner cavity 110, part of the heat can be transferred to the antifreeze plate 430 in turn, thereby achieving the purpose of antifreeze.
[0034] Furthermore, a built-in slot 431 is defined within the antifreeze plate 430. One end of the built-in slot 431 extends through the support plate 420, and a mounting opening 432 is formed at one end near the hangar interior 110. Multiple built-in slots 431 are spaced apart along the length of the antifreeze plate 430, each containing an electric heating plate 440. The electric heating plates 440 heat the antifreeze plate 430, enhancing heating and preventing freezing when the hangar door 200 is frozen or at relatively low temperatures.
[0035] A drive block 210 is integrally formed on the side of the hangar door 200 that is closest to the hangar interior 110. A screw rod 220 is rotatably connected to the support plate 420 that is closest to the hangar interior 110. The drive block 210 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 220. A motor is fixedly mounted on the hangar frame 100, which drives the screw rod 220. This arrangement places the drive structure inside the hangar interior 110, preventing ice from forming on the drive block 210, screw rod 220, and other structures during the closing process.
