DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] First of all, it should be pointed out that in the different described embodiments, the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals or the same component names, wherein the disclosure contained in the entire description can be transferred to the same parts with the same reference numerals or the same component names. Selected positional descriptions in the description, such as top, bottom, lateral, etc., also refer to the directly described and shown figures and are transferred to the new positions in the case of a change in position.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] A self-regulating charging platform for vehicle-mounted drones, such as Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, it includes a landing platform 1, and two first electric push rods 2 are symmetrically arranged on the top of the landing platform 1. The telescopic ends of the first electric push rods 2 are both arranged outward, and the upper sides of the left and right parts of the landing platform 1 are slidably connected with charging terminals 3, and the charging terminals 3 are connected to the adjacent telescopic ends of the first electric push rods 2. An unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4 is placed on the landing platform 1, and it also includes: a pushing mechanism 5, the pushing mechanism 5 is arranged on the landing platform 1, and the pushing mechanism 5 is used to clamp and limit the unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4; a positioning mechanism 6, the positioning mechanism 6 is arranged on the landing platform 1, and the positioning mechanism 6 is used to limit and lock the unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4 after landing.

[0033] It should be noted that during the use of the vehicle-mounted drone, in order to ensure the stable endurance of the vehicle-mounted drone, the device can be installed on the vehicle to perform convenient and fast charging of the vehicle-mounted drone. First, the drone is accurately landed on the landing platform 1, and the drone frame 4 is locked and fixed by the positioning mechanism 6. Then, the pushing mechanism 5 is controlled to clamp and fix the drone frame 4. Finally, the telescopic end of the first electric push rod 2 is controlled to move so that the charging end 3 approaches the drone frame 4, thereby remotely charging the drone.

[0034] The pushing mechanism 5 includes a second electric push rod 51, and the second electric push rod 51 is arranged on both sides of the front and rear of the top of the landing platform 1. The telescopic end of the second electric push rod 51 is connected with a mounting member 52, and the mounting member 52 is slidably connected to the landing platform 1. The mounting member 52 is connected with a pushing plate 53, and the pushing plate 53 is used to clamp and fix the drone frame 4.

[0035] It should be noted that after the UAV stops on the landing platform 1, the UAV frame 4 will stay at the center position of the landing platform 1. At this time, the second electric push rod 51 is started, and the telescopic ends of the second electric push rod 51 will begin to extend, so that the mounting parts 52 will slide inward. At this time, the push plates 53 will move inward, thereby pressing and limiting the UAV frame 4.

[0036] The positioning mechanism 6 includes a mounting sleeve 61. Four mounting sleeves 61 are arranged at the top of the landing platform 1. Conical columns 62 are slidably connected to the mounting sleeves 61. The top of the conical column 62 is a planar structure. The conical column 62 is used to lock and position the unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4. Lifting members 63 are slidably connected to the mounting sleeves 61. Push plates are arranged on the top of the lifting members 63. The lifting members 63 are T-shaped as a whole. The lifting members 63 are located on the inner sides of adjacent conical columns 62. A first spring 64 is connected between the conical column 62 and the adjacent mounting sleeve 61. A second spring 65 is connected between the lifting member 63 and the adjacent mounting sleeve 61. The telescopic tension of the first spring 64 is greater than the telescopic tension of the adjacent second spring 65. A connecting rope 66 is connected between the lifting member 63 and the adjacent conical column 62.

[0037] It should be noted that as the drone completes landing, the drone frame 4 will press the push plate on the top of the lifting member 63, causing the lifting member 63 to slide downward. At this time, the second spring 65 will be compressed. At the same time, in the initial state, the first spring 64 is in a compressed state. The connecting rope 66 will pull the conical column 62 due to the force of the lifting member 63. When the lifting member 63 slides downward, the conical column 62 loses the pulling force on the lifting member 63. Under the action of the first spring 64, the conical column 62 will slide upward, thereby passing through the landing platform 1 to complete the locking and positioning of the drone frame 4.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] On the basis of Example 1, a clamping mechanism 7 is also included, and the clamping mechanism 7 includes a fixed seat 71. Two symmetrical fixed seats 71 are installed on the upper sides of the front and rear parts of the landing platform 1, and a wire-taking rod 72 is rotatably connected between the two adjacent fixed seats 71 on the left and right. The wire-taking rod 72 is threadedly connected with a clamping member 73 on both sides. The upper sides of the left and right parts of the push plate 53 are provided with a mounting platform 76, and a pressure plate 75 is rotatably connected to the mounting platform 76. The pressure plate 75 is used to clamp and limit the unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4, and two first torsion springs 77 are connected between the pressure plate 75 and the adjacent mounting platform 76, and a pull rope 74 is connected between the outer side of the pressure plate 75 and the adjacent wire-taking rod 72.

[0040] It should be noted that as the push plate 53 starts to move inward, the pull rope 74 will be continuously pulled, and the pull rope 74 will be continuously released. When the pull rope 74 is pulled to the limit state, the pull rope 74 will pull the pressure plate 75, causing the pressure plate 75 to flip downward 90 degrees, thereby relying on the pressure plate 75 to clamp and limit the unmanned aerial vehicle frame 4. It should be noted that the clamping state of the pull rope 74 can be adjusted by controlling the clamping piece 73 as needed, and when the pull rope 74 needs to be released, it is necessary to loosen the clamping piece 73.

[0041] It also includes a cooling mechanism 8, which includes a mounting plate 81. The mounting plate 81 is provided on the charging end 3, and a cooling component 82 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 81. A mounting frame 83 is provided on the charging end 3, and a driving motor 84 is connected to the mounting frame 83. A rotating disk 85 is connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 84, and the rotating disk 85 is slidably connected to the adjacent cooling component 82.

[0042] It should be noted that when the charging terminal 3 starts to enter the charging state, in order to prevent the charging terminal 3 from overheating and affecting the charging effect, the output shaft of the driving motor 84 can be controlled to drive the rotating disk 85 to rotate, so that the cooling component 82 can slide, so that the cooling component 82 can cover the charging terminal 3 and the drone frame 4 at the same time, achieving a comprehensive cooling effect.

[0043] It also includes a protection mechanism 9, which includes a mounting column 91. Two mounting columns 91 are arranged on the top of the landing platform 1. A driving motor 92 is installed at the bottom of the mounting column 91. The output shafts of the driving motor 92 are all arranged downward. Two screw rods 94 are rotatably arranged in the landing platform 1. A pulley assembly 93 is connected between the screw rods 94 and the adjacent output shafts of the driving motor 92. A protection frame 95 is slidably connected to the outside of the landing platform 1. The protection frame 95 is threadedly connected to the screw rods 94. The left and right sides of the protection frame 95 are rotatably connected to rotating plates 96. Two second torsion springs 97 are connected between the rotating plate 96 and the protection frame 95.

[0044] It should be noted that when the drone is charging, in order to improve the charging safety and protect the drone, the drive motor 92 can be started at this time. The rotation of the output shaft of the drive motor 92 will drive the pulley assembly 93 to rotate, thereby causing the screw rod 94 to rotate. After the screw rod 94 starts to rotate, the protective frame 95 will start to move upward, thereby blocking it to a certain extent. At the same time, the rotating plate 96 and the second torsion spring 97 will cooperate to shield and protect the charging terminal 3, further improving the protection effect.

[0045] The protective frame 95 further comprises a defogger mechanism 10 , which comprises a mounting frame 101 . The mounting frames 101 are mounted on the four corners inside the protective frame 95 , and the mounting frames 101 are provided with air outlet components 102 .

[0046] It should be noted that during the landing of the drone, the air outlet component 102 can be activated to blow away the fog around the device, thereby facilitating the positioning and landing of the drone.

[0047] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
