The experimental methods in the following embodiments, unless otherwise specified, are conventional methods, and the materials, reagents, etc. used in the following embodiments, unless otherwise specified, can be obtained from commercial channels.

[0019] Example: like Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment proposes a surveying and mapping auxiliary device based on oblique photography of a drone, comprising a drone body 1, a connecting bracket 2, a gimbal frame 3 and a surveying and mapping machine 4, wherein the connecting bracket 2 is arranged on the lower surface of the drone body 1, the gimbal frame 3 is connected to the connecting bracket 2, and the surveying and mapping machine 4 is installed in the gimbal frame 3 through a limiter component; wherein a safety frame 5 is arranged around the surface of the surveying and mapping lens of the surveying and mapping machine 4, and a transparent protective plate is arranged in the safety frame 5 through a clamping component; Press the two limit plugs 12 to drive the two moving blocks 11 closer to each other, and insert the limit plugs 12 into the limit slots 15 opened on the two side walls of the bayonet 6. As the first spring 10 deforms, it will elastically react to the moving blocks 11, so that the two moving blocks 11 move away from each other, drive the two limit plugs 12 to move away from each other, and insert them into the limit slots 15 to fix the installation frame and the surveying and mapping machine 4, thereby improving the installation convenience of the surveying and mapping machine 4; insert the transparent protective plate into the protective frame 7 through the slot 16, and as the transparent protective plate in the strip slot 18 moves away from each other, the installation frame and the surveying and mapping machine 4 are fixed, thereby improving the installation convenience of the surveying and mapping machine 4; insert the transparent protective plate into the protective frame 7 through the slot 16, and as the transparent protective plate in the strip slot 18 moves away from each other, the installation frame and the surveying and mapping machine 4 are fixed, and the installation convenience of the surveying and mapping machine 4 is improved; The plate squeezes the upper and lower limit blocks 20, so that the two limit blocks 20 squeeze the second spring 19, and the second spring 19 is deformed, so that the two limit blocks 20 clamp and fix the transparent protective plate. During the surveying and mapping process, insects and other impurities in the air will only collide with the surface of the transparent protective plate, which improves the safety and service life of the lens of the surveying and mapping machine 4. After the surveying and mapping is completed, the lever 22 is moved to move the two limit blocks 20 away from each other, and the fixation of the transparent protective plate is cancelled, and the transparent protective plate can be removed for cleaning. The overall structure is simple and easy to use, and there is no need to clean the lens.

The limiting assembly includes a protective frame 7 arranged around the outer side of the surveying machine 4. The protective frame 7 is provided with fixed blocks 8 on both sides. The fixed block 8 is provided with a groove 9 inwardly away from the protective frame 7. The groove 9 is provided with first springs 10 on both sides. A moving block 11 is provided at one end of the two first springs 10. As the two moving blocks 11 approach each other, the first spring 10 can be stretched. As the limiting plug 12 is inserted into the limiting groove 15, the first spring 10 is deformed and reacts to the limiting plug 12, so that the limiting plug 12 is plugged and fixed in the limiting groove 15, thereby completing the installation of the surveying machine 4. The moving block 11 extends to the outside of the fixed block 8 through the opening of the groove 9 and is connected to the limiting plug 12. The first slide groove 13 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the groove 9, and the moving block 11 is plugged with a slide bar 14, and the head and tail of the slide bar 14 are respectively plugged into the first slide groove 13. The slide bar 14 slides along the length direction of the first slide groove 13 to drive the moving block 11 to move, which makes the moving block 11 move more smoothly on the one hand, and can provide sliding support for the moving block 11 on the other hand, thereby improving the stability of the moving block 11 during movement.

A second slide groove 21 is provided on the outside of the safety frame 5, and the second slide groove 21 is connected with the strip groove 18. A lever 22 is provided in the second slide groove 21, and the lever 22 extends through the second slide groove 21 to the strip groove 18 and is connected with the limit block 20. When the surveying is completed, the two levers 22 are pushed to drive the two limit blocks 20 away from each other, so that the limit blocks 20 are away from the transparent protective plate, and the fixation of the transparent protective plate is cancelled. The transparent protective plate can be removed for cleaning, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the lens, eliminating the need to clean the lens, and improving the service life of the lens.
