[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a water gun for a water flushing device of a drone in this embodiment, the water flushing device is fixed to the drone through a mounting bracket, the water flushing device includes a water gun 1, the water gun 1 includes a barrel extension section 4, a barrel 2 and a gun body module 3, the rear end of the barrel extension section 4 and the front end of the barrel 2 are detachably connected through a barrel 2 connector, and the barrel 2 is fixed on the gun body module 3.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the gun body module 3 includes a fixing component 5, a front-end direction control follower mechanism 6 and a reaction force buffer follower mechanism 7.

[0028] The fixing assembly 5 includes a front barrel 2 fixing frame 51 and two gun body side panels 52. The front end barrel 2 fixing frame 51 includes a bottom plate and two side panels.

The tops of the two side panels are respectively fixedly connected to the gun body side panels 52 on the corresponding side. The extension direction of the gun body side panels 52 is consistent with the extension direction of the barrel 2.

[0029] In this embodiment, the gun body side plate 52 is composed of two plates spliced ​​at a certain angle, one of which is parallel to the barrel 2, and the other is at a certain angle to the barrel 2. The front end of the plate parallel to the barrel 2 is fixedly connected to the front direction control follower mechanism 6, and the rear end is fixedly connected to the front end of the other plate, and the rear end of the other plate is fixedly connected to the reaction force buffer follower mechanism 7.

[0030] A control device is also fixed between the two gun body side plates 52. The control module is arranged between the front direction control follower mechanism 6 and the reaction force buffer follower mechanism 7. The control module is electrically connected to the two servos 61 respectively for controlling the rotation of the output shaft of the servo 61.

[0031] The control module is connected to the remote control module signal on the ground, so that the staff can remotely control the rotation direction of the servo 61 through remote control, thereby changing the up and down angle of the gun barrel and increasing the water flushing area.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the front section direction control follower mechanism 6 includes a swing arm 62, a front slide assembly 63 and two servos 61, the two servos 61 are arranged above the front slide assembly 63, and the two servos 61 are respectively connected to the front slide assembly 63 through the swing arm 62, the front slide assembly 63 includes a front buffer slide and a front follower fixed seat, the front buffer slide is sleeved on the gun barrel 2, and the front and rear ends are respectively provided with slide fasteners for fixing the front buffer slide, the front follower fixed seat is sleeved on the front buffer slide and slides on the front buffer slide.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, the reaction force buffer follower mechanism 7 includes a resetter adjustment fixing member 71, a rear sliding sleeve assembly 73 and an oil pressure spring resetter 72. The resetter adjustment fixing member 71 is sleeved on the barrel 2 and is located behind the front sliding sleeve assembly 63. The top is hinged to one end of the oil pressure spring resetter 72. The other end of the oil pressure spring resetter 72, i.e., the telescopic end, is connected to the rear sliding sleeve assembly 73. The rear sliding sleeve assembly 73 is arranged behind the resetter adjustment fixing member 71.

[0036] The rear slide assembly 73 includes a rear buffer slide and a rear follower fixing seat. The rear buffer slide is mounted on the gun barrel 2, and slide fasteners are provided at the front and rear ends for fixing the rear buffer slide. The rear follower fixing seat is mounted on the rear buffer slide and slides on the rear buffer slide. The top of the rear follower fixing seat is connected to the telescopic end of the oil pressure spring returner 72, and the rear follower fixing seat drives the telescopic end of the oil pressure spring returner 72 to move. When the rear follower fixing seat moves on the rear buffer slide, it can offset part of the recoil force, and when it drives the telescopic end of the oil pressure spring returner 72 to move, it can also offset part of the recoil force.

[0037] The left and right side surfaces of the rear follower fixing seat are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding gun body side plates 52.

[0038] A directional nozzle assembly is provided at the front end of the barrel extension section 4, and a barrel support assembly 8 and a camera pan-tilt assembly 9 are provided behind the directional nozzle assembly.

[0040] The camera pan-tilt assembly 9 includes a camera, which is fixed to the extended section gun barrel 2 via a camera fixing member.

[0041] The specific method of using the water gun of the water flushing device of the present embodiment is as follows: when using the water flushing device for flushing, the servo 61 is used to control the swing arm 62 to drive the front follower fixing seat to move up and down on the front end barrel 2 fixing frame 51, thereby driving the barrel 2 to move up and down, adjusting the up and down angle of the barrel 2 to expand the flushing range;

[0042] When the water gun 1 sprays a water column, it will generate a backward recoil force. At this time, the front direction control follower mechanism 6 slides backward under the action of the front sliding sleeve assembly 63, and the fixed assembly 5 also moves backward with the front direction control follower mechanism 6. The reaction force buffer follower mechanism 7 arranged at the rear end of the fixed assembly 5 also moves backward under the action of the fixed assembly 5. At this time, with the cooperation of the oil pressure spring returner 72, the rear sliding sleeve assembly 73 and the front sliding sleeve assembly 63, part of the recoil force can be absorbed, and the barrel 2 can be driven to reset after the recoil force subsides, thereby reducing the pressure of the drone to automatically correct the balance and improving the flight stability.

[0043] The parts not involved in the present invention are the same as the existing technology or can be implemented by using the existing technology.

[0044] As described above, although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, it should not be construed as limiting the present invention itself. Various changes may be made to it in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
