[0026] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from this description. The "embodiment" referred to here refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 8 The present embodiment provides a UAV mounting structure for connecting a frame 3, wherein a driving mechanism for moving along the axial direction of the cable is provided inside the frame 3, and a suspension mechanism 8 for mounting the device is provided above the frame 3, and the top of the suspension mechanism 8 is connected to the UAV, and the suspension mechanism 8 includes at least two movable clamping plates 805 for clamping the device, wherein one of the movable clamping plates 805 is provided with an angle adjustment mechanism for rotating the device, and a magnetic attraction mechanism 9 for assisting the suspension mechanism 8 in docking with the device is provided above the frame 3. The suspension mechanism 8 includes a gyroscope 808 that cooperates with the angle adjustment mechanism. The angle adjustment mechanism includes a driving gear 806. The driving gear 806 is driven by an angle adjustment motor. The angle adjustment motor is fixedly connected to the movable clamping plate 805. A fixed plate 4 is connected to the top of the frame 3. A clamping piece 6 that cooperates with the suspension mechanism 8 is connected to the top of the fixed plate 4. A driven gear 7 is provided on the clamping piece 6. When the movable clamping plate 805 is in a position to fit the clamping piece 6, the driving gear 806 is meshed with the driven gear 7 to rotate the clamping piece 6. The gyroscope 808 is used to prevent the suspension mechanism 8 from rotating during the docking process.

[0029] The gyroscope 808 belongs to the prior art, and the rotating plane is arranged vertically, that is, the rotating shaft of the gyroscope 808 is arranged horizontally. The driving mechanism is two driving wheels with grooves, and the grooves are adapted to the cables and use friction to drive the coating equipment to move along the surface of the cables, so as to carry out the cable coating work; this equipment, when used in conjunction with the suspension mechanism 8 and the drone, can suspend the equipment to a specified position, and then, under the drive of the angle adjustment mechanism, adjust the angle of the equipment to facilitate docking with the cable. The cross section of the clamping part 6 is T-shaped, and the joint with the movable splint 805 is a curved surface. When the two movable splints 805 clamp the clamping part 6, the clamping part 6 can rotate to cooperate with the angle adjustment mechanism to rotate the equipment.

[0030] The suspension mechanism 8 includes a top plate 801 connected to the top of the drone, and a driving motor 802 is provided inside the top plate 801 for driving a mobile clamp 805 to clamp or separate the device. The driving motor 802 drives the two mobile clamps 805 to move toward or away from each other through a screw rod 803. A guide rod 804 is connected inside the top plate 801 for limiting the mobile clamp 805. The suspension mechanism 8 includes a static magnet 807, and the magnetic attraction mechanism 9 includes a moving magnet 901 that cooperates with the static magnet 807. Both ends of the moving magnet 901 are provided with a rotating shaft 902 and a support seat 903 for supporting the rotating shaft 902. The support seat 903 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 4. One end of the rotating shaft 902 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 904, and the worm gear 904 is connected to a worm 905. The worm 905 is connected to a bidirectional motor 906. During the docking process of the suspension mechanism 8 and the coating equipment, the moving magnet 901 rotates to a state opposite to the magnetic pole of the static magnet 807. During the separation process of the suspension mechanism 8 and the coating equipment, the moving magnet 901 rotates to a state with the same magnetic pole as the static magnet 807.

[0031] A trapezoidal opening is provided on one side of the frame 3 for guiding the drive mechanism to connect with the cable. The width of the trapezoidal opening gradually decreases from the outside to the inside, and the inside of the trapezoidal opening is connected to the drive mechanism. A guide 5 is provided on the top of the fixing plate 4, and the guide 5 is used to guide the suspension mechanism 8 to approach the magnetic attraction mechanism 9.

[0032] When the suspension mechanism 8 and the equipment are initially positioned, the lead screw 803 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 802, thereby driving the two movable clamps 805 to move simultaneously in the direction close to the clamping part 6 until the two movable clamps 805 clamp the clamping part 6, at which time the driven gear 7 and the driving gear 806 are just engaged.

[0033] The frame of the suspension mechanism 8 , the clamping member 6 , the driving gear 806 and the driven gear 7 are all made of non-magnetic materials to avoid affecting the docking of the moving magnet 901 and the static magnet 807 .

[0034] Working principle: First, connect the drone and the top plate 801, and then the drone drives the suspension mechanism 8 to move to the position directly above the equipment. At this time, the suspension mechanism 8 is guided to the vicinity of the magnetic attraction mechanism 9 with the help of the guide 5, and the static magnet 807 is controlled to rotate to a state of adsorption with the moving magnet 901. The suspension mechanism 8 is docked with the equipment through attraction, and then the drive motor 802 is started to drive the screw rod 803 to rotate. Due to the transmission action of the screw rod 803, the two movable clamps 805 move toward the clamping part 6 at the same time to clamp the clamping part 6. At this time, the driven gear 7 is just engaged with the driving gear 806, and then the angle adjustment motor is started to drive the driving gear 806 and the driven gear 7 to rotate, thereby driving the equipment to rotate, so as to realize the angle adjustment of the coating equipment and facilitate the docking of the equipment and the cable. By means of the adsorption of two magnets (static magnet 807 and moving magnet 901) and the assistance of the guide 5, during the process of mounting the suspension mechanism 8 on the drone, it is only necessary to move the suspension mechanism 8 within the force range of the two magnets to achieve docking, thereby avoiding the docking in the prior art by only manipulating the drone for precise docking, reducing the operating requirements for personnel, and improving the mounting efficiency and accuracy of operation.
