[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the drone-based cargo system of the present invention includes a loading mechanism 2, a side guide device 3, a mechanical two-way lock 4, a roller transmission device 5 and a forward limiting mechanism 6.
[0030] A drone cabin door 1 is arranged at the rear end of the drone, the drone cabin door 1 is connected to the drone cabin, a drone cabin floor 7 is arranged on the drone cabin surface, and the cargo system is arranged on the drone cabin floor 7.
[0031] The loading mechanism 2 is fixedly mounted on the floor 7 inside the unmanned aircraft cabin, the side guide device 3 is fixedly mounted on the floor 7 inside the unmanned aircraft cabin by bolts, the mechanical two-way lock 4 is distributedly fixedly mounted on the floor 7 inside the unmanned aircraft cabin according to the storage position of the unmanned aircraft container, the roller transmission device 5 is evenly fixedly mounted on the floor 7 inside the unmanned aircraft cabin in two rows, and the forward limiting mechanism 6 is fixedly mounted on the floor 7 inside the unmanned aircraft cabin by bolts.
[0032] The loading mechanism 2 is located at the rear end of the unmanned aerial vehicle cabin, that is, close to one end of the unmanned aerial vehicle cabin door 1. In the present invention, the loading mechanism 2 is shown in the structural diagram as follows: Figure 2As shown, it includes a loading mechanism mounting plate 21, an adjustment handle 22, a support 23, a cam mechanism 24, a loading mechanism transmission plane 25 and a loading mechanism side guide device 27.
[0033] The loading mechanism mounting plate 21 is mounted on the floor 7 in the unmanned aerial vehicle cabin, and the rear side is arranged in close contact with the unmanned aerial vehicle cabin door 1. Two supports 23 and a loading device transmission plane 25 are arranged on the loading mechanism mounting plate 21. The front side of the loading device transmission plane 25 is hinged to the loading mechanism mounting plate 21, so that the rear side of the loading device transmission plane 25 can be rotated up and down. The adjustment handle 22, the support 23 and the cam mechanism 24 form an angle adjustment mechanism. Two transverse waist holes are arranged on the rear side of the loading device transmission plane 25. The cam mechanism 24 is fixedly mounted on the loading mechanism mounting plate 21 through the support 23. There are two cam mechanisms 24. The cam mechanism 24 includes a cam and a connecting rod. One end of the two connecting rods is slidably connected. In the oval hole, it can move horizontally along the axis of the oval hole, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the cam. The cam is connected to the adjusting handle 22 through the support 23 through the connecting shaft. The adjusting handle 22 is used to manually adjust the posture of the loading mechanism. By rotating the adjusting handle 22, the cam is driven to rotate, and the cam drives the connecting rod to move up and down, thereby driving the rear side of the loading device transmission plane 25 to rotate up and down, adjusting its own angle to meet different cargo transportation needs. In addition, the oval hole on the rear side of the loading device transmission plane 25 can satisfy the connection rod to follow the circular motion of the cam, and decompose the circular motion into horizontal movement and up and down movement. The horizontal movement is realized through the oval hole, so that the loading device transmission plane 25 can only move up and down.
[0034] The ball transmission unit 26 plays a transmission role, and there are multiple ball transmission units 26, which are evenly distributed and fixedly installed on the loading device transmission plane 25. The ball transmission unit 26 is a mechanical structure with a ball bearing as the core. The rolling of the ball reduces the friction in the power transmission process, realizes efficient rotation and transmission movement, and is responsible for the stable and rapid loading, unloading and transportation of goods in the unmanned cabin. The loading mechanism side guide device 27 with side limit and guide functions is fixedly installed on the loading device transmission plane 25. There are two loading mechanism side guide devices 27, which are located on both sides of the loading device transmission plane 25 to prevent the goods from shifting during transportation and hitting the wall of the unmanned cabin.
[0035] There are at least two side guide devices 3, which are located on the left and right sides of the floor 7 in the unmanned cabin, parallel to the axis of the unmanned cabin, and the distance between the two side guide devices 3 is the same as the width of the pallet. The side guide devices 3 are used to limit the left and right directions of the pallet and guide the heading and reverse heading movement of the pallet. In the present invention, the schematic diagram of the structure of the side guide device 3 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the side guide device 3 includes a side guide limit device mounting frame 31 , a first locking bolt 32 , an adjusting roller 33 and a vertical limit head 34 .
[0036] The side guide limit device mounting frame 31 is a long strip structure with a C-shaped cross-section and an opening facing the axis of the drone cabin. The side guide limit device mounting frame 31 and the vertical limit head 34 are fixed to the floor 7 in the drone cabin through multiple first locking bolts 32. The vertical limit head 34 is located above the side guide limit device mounting frame 31 and extends toward the opening direction, which is used to limit the cargo pallet in the vertical direction to prevent the cargo pallet from bouncing up and detaching from the side guide device 3 during flight turbulence. The roller 33 is fixedly mounted at the opening of the side guide limit device mounting frame 31, and both ends of the roller 33 are rotatably connected to the upper and lower sides of the side guide limit device mounting frame 31. The peripheral surface of the roller 33 extends out of the opening. The roller 33 plays a guiding and side limiting role, which not only blocks the left and right movement of the cargo pallet, but also reduces the contact friction when the cargo pallet moves in the heading and reverse heading. The side guide device 3 has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble. For different types of cargo drones, the design can be re-matched by adjusting the number of positions of the rollers 33 and the vertical limit heads 34, which has strong plasticity.
[0037] In the present invention, the mechanical two-way lock 4 is schematically shown as follows: Figure 4 As shown, it includes a transmission stick 41, a sunken two-way lock base 42, a second locking bolt 43 and a two-way lock head 44.
[0038] The front and rear ends of the two-way lock base 42 are the heading of the drone. A transmission stick 41 is installed at both ends of the two-way lock base 42. The transmission stick 41 is rotatably connected to the two-way lock base 42, and the connecting shaft is located inside the two-way lock base 42. The direction of the connecting shaft is left and right. A groove is set in the middle of the two-way lock base 42. The two-way lock head 44 is rotatably connected in the groove, and the rotating shaft is located inside the groove of the two-way lock base 42. The direction of the rotating shaft is left and right.
[0039] The transmission rod 41 is fixedly sunken and installed in front and behind the two-way lock base 42, and the two-way lock head 44 is sunken and installed in the groove in the middle of the two-way lock base 42 through a rotating shaft. Its structure is simple and easy to disassemble. The mechanical two-way lock 4 adopts a sunken design to reduce the working height of the transmission device and increase the height limit of the container loading cargo. The sunken installation of the transmission rod 41 on both sides can make the mechanical two-way lock 4 integrate the transmission and limit functions, improve the integration of the freight system components, and make installation and debugging more convenient.
[0040] The two-way lock head 44 includes two cross-arranged lock heads, and the two lock heads are rotatably connected to the grooves of the two-way lock base 42 through a rotating shaft. A torsion spring is sleeved on the two rotating shafts, one end of the torsion spring is connected to the two-way lock base 42, and the other end is connected to the lock head, so that the lock heads are always rotated in the direction away from each other, so that the two crossed lock heads form a self-locking state, cannot be separated and are away from each other.
[0041] At least one two-way lock base 42 is arranged on each side of the floor 7 in the drone cabin. The front and rear ends of the two-way lock base 42 are arranged along the heading of the drone. The two-way lock base 42 is located on the inner side of the side guide device 3, and is used to limit the cargo pallet in the heading and counter-heading direction. During loading and unloading, the transmission stick 41 can play a sliding role to save physical effort.
[0042] In the present invention, the schematic diagram of the structure of the forward limiting mechanism 6 is shown in Figure 5, which includes a forward limiting head 61 and a third locking bolt 62. The forward limiting head 61 is fixedly installed on the floor 7 in the unmanned cabin through the third locking bolt 62. A horizontal through groove is provided at the rear side of the forward limiting head 61 for clamping the cargo pallet. An open groove is provided at the top of the rear side of the forward limiting head 61 for facilitating the installation or removal of the third locking bolt 62. A mounting groove is provided at the bottom of the rear side of the forward limiting head 61 for placing the third locking bolt 62. A mounting hole is provided on the mounting groove for the third locking bolt 62 to pass through and connect the forward limiting head 61 to the floor 7 in the unmanned cabin. The forward limiting mechanism 6 is located in the unmanned cabin near the nose direction and at the front end of the entire cargo system. It is used to limit the movement of the cargo pallet in the heading direction to prevent the cargo pallet from moving forward and leaving the cargo system. It has a compact structure and is easy to install.
[0043] During operation, the cargo auxiliary device on the ground moves the air container loaded with cargo to the loading mechanism 2 at the cabin door, and matches the posture of the air container with the loading mechanism 2 of the drone cargo system by manually adjusting the adjustment handle 22 on the loading mechanism 2 and with the assistance of personnel. The ball transmission unit 26 on the loading device 2 plays the role of transmission and posture adjustment, and the side guide device 27 of the loading mechanism plays the role of side guidance and vertical limit. The loading device 2 can quickly match the posture of the air container with the posture of the cargo system, and the positioning accuracy is high and the adjustment is convenient. The personnel push the container located on the loading mechanism 2 to the cargo position where it needs to be placed through the roller mechanism 5, and the side guide devices 3 installed on both sides of the floor 7 in the drone cabin play the role of guidance and the span and vertical limit of the drone. When the air container arrives at the designated cargo position, the two-way lock lock head 44 on the mechanical two-way lock 4 is pulled up to complete the heading limit of the air container, and then the loading of the container in the next cargo position is completed again.
