Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, drone technology has been widely used in various fields, especially in the field of emergency rescue. As an efficient and flexible rescue tool, it can quickly deliver rescue supplies at disaster sites such as fires and earthquakes, buying precious time for rescue work. However, most of the existing drone throwing methods use ropes tied to the drone landing gear, and a storage box is tied at the bottom of the rope. When the drone arrives at the designated location, there are two ways to complete the delivery. One is to manually release the connection between the rope and the storage box, and the other is to set a release mechanism on the drone to release the rope and the storage basket synchronously. The above method 1 has the problem of low efficiency. Although the second method can improve efficiency, the rope can only be used once, and the rope is prone to swing during transportation.

[0041] Further, such as Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, the clamping unit includes four third slide bars 700 installed at the bottom of the lower connecting sleeve 400, and the four third slide bars 700 are slidably connected with the lifting plate 701, and the lower end of the pull rope 510 is connected to the lifting plate 701. Two symmetrical first brackets 703 are provided at the bottom of the lower connecting sleeve 400, and a clamping rod 704 is rotatably provided at the lower end of the first bracket 703. A hook 705 is provided at the lower end of the clamping rod 704, and a resistance rod 706 is provided at the upper end. When the pull rope 510 contracts and drives the lifting plate 701 to move upward, the lifting plate 701 contacts the inner side of the resistance rod 706 and drives the clamping rod 704 to rotate, so that the two hooks 705 are in a fitting state.
[0042] Furthermore, the first bracket 703 is provided with a second bracket 707, the second bracket 707 is connected with a fixing sleeve 708, the contact rod 706 is connected with an arc rod 709, the arc rod 709 is slidably connected with the fixing sleeve 708, the arc rod 709 is sleeved with a fourth spring 710, the two ends of the fourth spring 710 are respectively against the contact rod 706 and the fixing sleeve 708, through the setting of the fourth spring 710, the clamping rod 704 can be automatically reset, the end of the arc rod 709 is provided with a limit plate 711, which is used to limit the arc rod 709 from being separated from the fixing sleeve 708, and the two hooks 705 are automatically separated to facilitate the release of the storage container.

[0043] In one embodiment, in order to prevent the connecting sleeve assembly from swaying during drone transportation, a latch assembly is provided in the connecting sleeve assembly. Specifically, the latch assemblies are independently provided in the upper connecting sleeve 200, the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400. When the driving unit drives the pull rope 510 to contract, the latch assemblies located in the upper connecting sleeve 200, the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400 are connected in series with each other to form the upper connecting sleeve 200, the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400 into an integral structure, thereby avoiding swaying between the multiple connecting sleeve bodies.
[0044] like Figure 4-Figure 9 As shown, the above connecting sleeve 200 and the middle connecting sleeve 300 are taken as examples:
[0045] The plug-in assembly in the upper connecting sleeve 200 includes a first movable plate 508, which is located between the cross frame 501 and the bottom plate 100. A second driving rod 512 is connected between the first slide plate 504 and the cross frame 501. As the first slide plate 504 moves on the cross frame 501, the first movable plate 508 is driven to move up and down by the second driving rod 512. Second plug rods 5081 extend downward on both sides of the first movable plate 508, and the first movable plate 508 extends upward and is connected to a second slide rail 5061. Second slide plates 506 that are slidably connected to the second slide rail 5061 are provided on both outer sides of the cross frame 501. Fifth slots 5089 are provided at positions symmetrical to the second plug rod 5081 on both sides of the upper connecting sleeve 200, and the second plug rod 5081 is slidably set with the fifth slot 5089.
[0046] The middle connecting sleeve 300 is provided with a first slot 307 and a second slot 308 which are interpenetrating with each other in sequence on both sides of the middle connecting sleeve 300. The first slot 307 extends upward along the middle connecting sleeve 300 and penetrates the upper connecting plate a301. The second slot 308 extends downward along the middle connecting sleeve 300 and penetrates the lower connecting plate b303. When the first moving plate 508 moves downward, the second insertion rod 5081 moves downward into the first slot 307, thereby preventing the middle connecting sleeve 300 from rotating relative to the upper connecting sleeve 200. Figure 7-Figure 9 The latch assembly inside the middle connecting sleeve 300 includes a third plug rod 600 arranged in the second slot 308, a second through slot 603 is provided on the third plug rod 600, a second slide rod 605 is provided in the second through slot 603, a first baffle plate 309 is provided in the second slot 308, the first baffle plate 309 passes through the second through slot 603, the third plug rod 600 slides on the first baffle plate 309 through the second through slot 603, the second slide rod 605 passes through the first baffle plate 309 and is slidably connected thereto, a second spring 606 is sleeved on the second slide rod 605, and the two ends of the second spring 606 are respectively against the first baffle plate 309 and the inner wall of the second through slot 603. In a natural state, the third plug rod 600 is driven to move upward by the second spring 606, and under the elastic force of the second spring 606, the end of the third plug rod 600 coincides with the end of the upper connecting plate a301. It should be noted that when the pull rope 510 is in the released state, the lower end of the second plug rod 5081 is in contact with the upper end of the third plug rod 600. The purpose of this arrangement is to keep the movement stroke of the second plug rod 5081 and the third plug rod 600 consistent, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that multiple adjacent pin assemblies cannot be matched due to inconsistent movement strokes.
[0047] The cooperation between the multiple middle connecting sleeves 300 refers to the above working principle. Since the structure of the lower connecting sleeve 400 is different from that of the upper connecting sleeve 200 and the middle connecting sleeve 300, the cooperation between the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400 is taken as an example to explain the working principle of the lower connecting sleeve 400 in detail. Figure 12-13 A third slot 403 and a fourth slot 401 are provided in the lower connecting sleeve 400, and the third slot 403 and the fourth slot 401 are connected. The third slot 403 extends upward along the lower connecting sleeve 400 and penetrates the upper connecting plate c412. A first plug rod 405 is slidably connected in the third slot 403, and a first through slot 409 is provided on the first plug rod 405. A second baffle plate 402 is provided in the fourth slot 401, and the second baffle plate 402 is slidably arranged with the first through slot 409. A first slide bar 407 is provided in the first through slot 409, and the first slide bar 407 penetrates the second baffle plate 402. A first spring 408 is sleeved on the first slide bar 407, and the two ends of the first spring 408 are respectively against the second baffle plate 402 and the first through slot 409. When the elastic force of the first spring 408 is released, the upper end edge of the first plug rod 405 overlaps with the upper connecting plate c412 to form an integral arc surface. When the third plugging rod 600 in the middle connecting sleeve 300 moves downward, the first plugging rod 405 in the lower connecting sleeve 400 is synchronously driven to move downward. At this time, the third plugging rod 600 is inserted into the third slot 403 to realize the positioning of the lower connecting sleeve 400.
[0048] In one embodiment, in order to prevent the pin assembly inside the upper connecting sleeve 200, the middle connecting sleeve 300 or the lower connecting sleeve 400 from getting stuck, this embodiment optimizes the internal shape of each connecting sleeve and locally improves multiple plug rods, thereby avoiding the sticking phenomenon while minimizing the swing amplitude between multiple connecting sleeves.
[0049] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 , Fig.14 , Fig.15 When the width of the first slot 307 is the same as the width of the fifth slot 5089 and the second slot 308, when the upper connecting sleeve 200 and the middle connecting sleeve 300 are slightly bent, the second plug rod 5081 cannot be inserted into the first slot 307, resulting in a jamming phenomenon. Therefore, in this embodiment, the width of the first slot 307 is greater than the width of the second slot 308 and the fifth slot 5089. The purpose of this setting is that even if a slight bend occurs, it will not affect the up and down movement of the second plug rod 5081.
[0050] Further, such as Fig.14As shown, since the width of the first slot 307 is wider, there is a gap in the second plug rod 5081 in the first slot 307, so that there is a certain swing gap between the upper connecting sleeve 200 and the middle connecting sleeve 300. In order to avoid this defect, a second outer convex plate 601 is provided on the top of the third plug rod 600, and the top of the second outer convex plate 601 is arc-shaped. When the second outer convex plate 601 moves upward to the extreme position, the surface of the second outer convex plate 601 coincides with the end face of the upper connecting plate a301. The width of the second outer convex plate 601 is equal to that of the first slot 307. The second outer convex plate 601 is embedded in the first slot 307. A first stopper 306 is provided at the end portion of the first slot 307. A first notch 602 for accommodating the first stopper 306 is provided on the end face of the second outer convex plate 601. The bottom of the second plug rod 5081 is composed of two symmetrical first push rods 5082. The gap between the two first push rods 5082 forms a first accommodating groove 5083, which is a vertical strip. The width of the first accommodating groove 5083 is the same as that of the first stop block 306. Each first push rod 5082 is provided with a second accommodating groove 5084, and two symmetrical second accommodating grooves 5084 are provided with a first rotating shaft 5085. The first rotating shaft 5085 is connected to the first rotating plate 5086 through a torsion spring (not shown in the figure). In a natural state, the two first rotating plates 5086 move closer to each other under the action of the torsion spring. When the first stop block 306 moves upward on the first accommodating groove 5083 and touches the inner side of the first rotating plate 5086, the two first rotating plates 5086 are driven to expand outward, and a first positioning block 5087 is provided on the outer side of the first rotating plate 5086. The first positioning block 5087 contacts the first slot 307 to achieve positioning.
[0051] Optionally, the structure between the first positioning block 5087 and the first slot 307 can be designed according to actual use, including but not limited to rubber and frosted metal layers.
[0052] Furthermore, the lower end of the third plug rod 600 in the middle connecting sleeve 300 is composed of two second push rods 604, and the gap between the two second push rods 604 forms a fourth accommodating groove 608. Each second push rod 604 is provided with a third accommodating groove 607, and a second rotating shaft 609 is provided in the third accommodating groove 607. The second rotating shaft 609 is connected to the second rotating plate 610 through a torsion spring, and a second positioning block 611 is provided on the outer side of the second rotating plate 610. The locking between the middle connecting sleeves 300 has the same working principle as described in the previous paragraph, and will not be elaborated here.
[0053] Further, see Fig.12A first outer convex plate 406 is provided at the upper end of the first insertion rod 405 in the lower connecting sleeve 400, a second stopper 404 is connected to the end portion of the third slot 403, and a second notch is provided on the end face of the first outer convex plate 406 (not shown in the figure, the structure of the second notch is the same as the first notch 602). The locking principle between the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400 is the same as the locking method of the upper connecting sleeve 200 and the middle connecting sleeve mentioned above, and will not be elaborated here.
[0054] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the drone is in operation and starts to take off from the take-off frame to a preset height. At this time, the clamping unit is located directly above the material. At this time, the pull rope 510 is driven to contract by the driving unit. At this time, the latch assembly moves synchronously to achieve the locking of the upper connecting sleeve 200, the middle connecting sleeve 300 and the lower connecting sleeve 400, thereby avoiding tilting when the drone is in operation. The drone of the present invention can achieve automatic delivery without stopping, and during the movement, the upper connecting sleeve, the middle connecting sleeve and the lower connecting sleeve form an integral structure through the cooperation, thereby avoiding the tilting of the material during the transportation process.
[0055] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
