Description

Technical Field

[0002] Portable agricultural drone cabins are integrated equipment specially designed for agricultural operations. As a storage and transportation platform, the cabins themselves are convenient, modular and efficient. However, existing portable agricultural drone cabins still have certain defects when in use. During use, the drone is placed inside the cabin, and vibrations or collisions may occur during transportation, which may cause loose or damaged components, affecting the performance and service life of the drone and increasing the overall maintenance cost.

[0003] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, prior art 1 (Chinese patent with application number 202220972525.1 and application date 2022-04-26) is a square cabin capable of storing multiple drones, comprising a cabin body, support legs, an operating panel, ventilation windows, a solar panel, and an electric drawer. The cabin body is a four-sided rectangular structure and four groups of bolted support legs are installed at the bottom. An embedded operating panel is installed in the middle of the right end of the cabin body. A rectangular ventilation window is opened on the top of the operating panel. A rectangular solar panel is installed in the middle of the top of the cabin body. Four groups of slidingly connected symmetrically distributed electric drawers are installed at the front end of the cabin body. When a drone needs to be stored, the detection sensor can automatically detect and then transmit the signal to the electric telescopic rod through the integrated controller. Then the electric telescopic rod drives the drawer box to move outward and then improves the movement stability through the balancing telescopic rod and performs limit control through the spring limiter, thereby reducing the damage of the drone during transportation.

[0004] Although the existing technology can limit the position of the drone, during the operation, the drone is limited by an electric telescopic rod and a spring limiter, and the overall design is relatively complicated, which increases the maintenance and repair costs of the equipment. In addition, the spring limiter relies on the elasticity of the spring to limit the position. When the elasticity of the spring weakens, it is easy to affect the accuracy of the limit, thereby reducing the stability of the drone in the cabin. In response to the above problems, it is urgently necessary to carry out innovative design based on the original portable agricultural drone cabin. Therefore, we proposed a portable agricultural drone cabin that can solve the above problems well. Summary of the invention
