[0018] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0019] The present invention provides a distributed environmental data acquisition drone and drone cruise system. Through the provided camera and motor, the camera below the drone can acquire images of the surrounding environment.

Through the cleaning component set up, the blades under the mounting plate will rotate as the UAV flies, and the rotation of the blades can drive the first rotating rod to rotate. During the rotation of the first rotating rod, the first gear can be driven to rotate together, and the mutual engagement between the first gear, the second gear, and the third gear can eventually drive the second rotating rod to rotate. When the second rotating rod rotates, the rotating shaft and the crank can be driven to rotate. At the same time, the crank is rotatably connected to the connecting rod, so that the cleaning roller can be driven to perform reciprocating cleaning motion at the end of the camera, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the camera end and preventing the camera from being easily contaminated by impurities and dust floating in the air, thereby causing the acquisition camera to be unable to take clear environmental pictures, affecting the accuracy of the UAV's acquisition of surrounding environmental data.
