Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle accessories, and in particular relates to a device for assisting unmanned aerial vehicle take-off and landing in a special environment and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The necessity of drones in the power industry is becoming increasingly prominent. Their application has not only significantly improved the efficiency of power facility operation and maintenance, but also effectively reduced operation and maintenance costs, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power system. Given that power facilities are widely distributed and the environment is complex, traditional manual inspection methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are high safety risks. With their advantages of rapid response, efficient coverage, and precise positioning, drones can achieve comprehensive inspections of important facilities such as transmission and distribution lines and substations, detect and handle abnormal situations in a timely manner, and effectively prevent accidents.

[0003] At the same time, drones are not restricted by geographical and climatic conditions and can perform tasks in complex and harsh environments, further enhancing the reliability and stability of the power system. Therefore, drones have become an indispensable tool for the power industry and are of great significance for promoting the sustainable development of my country's power industry.

[0004] However, the current take-off and landing devices for drones are limited and cannot achieve good results in some special areas and environments, and may even have a counterproductive effect. Especially in Xinjiang, where the land is vast and sparsely populated and the terrain is complex and changeable, drones face severe landing challenges when operating in mountainous areas. Specifically:

[0005] The ground is uneven and the terrain in the mountains is complex. It is difficult for drones to find a flat landing spot to place the drone landing device during landing. Random placement of the landing device may cause the drone to bump or roll during landing, or even cause damage. Therefore, when taking off and landing drones in Turpan, Xinjiang, it is now necessary to move boxes or use other platforms to complete it. Specifically, it is to manually move transfer boxes or build temporary platforms to assist drone landing. This greatly increases labor costs, but the work efficiency is low and it takes a lot of time.

[0006] Most of the drone take-off and landing devices on the market are designed for flat urban environments and have poor adaptability to the special terrain and climate conditions in Xinjiang. The take-off and landing conditions are limited. The climate and terrain conditions in Xinjiang are complex. Some drones may be affected by environmental factors such as wind and temperature during take-off and landing, resulting in failure to operate normally, which limits the widespread use of drones in Xinjiang.

[0007] The geographical environment in Turpan, Xinjiang and other areas is special, and night operations are frequent. During night operations, due to insufficient light, it is difficult for operators to accurately judge the position and status of the drone, which increases the difficulty and risk of landing. At the same time, in the night environment, the identification and positioning of drones become more difficult, which may cause the drone to deviate from the predetermined position when landing, or even a collision accident, damaging the drone itself, and even posing a threat to surrounding facilities or personnel.

[0008] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, in view of the special geographical environment of Xinjiang, it is necessary to design a device for assisting UAV take-off and landing in special environments and a method of using it to ensure the safety and reliability of UAV fuselage take-off and landing.

Unless otherwise clearly defined, ordinary technicians in this field can understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0083] like Figure 1 As shown, the device for assisting the take-off and landing of an unmanned aerial vehicle in a special environment of the present invention comprises a receiving component 1, a connecting rod 2 and a supporting component 3. The receiving component 1 is used to place the fuselage of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the connecting rod 2 connects the receiving component 1 and the supporting component 3. The connecting rod 2 and the supporting component 3 are fixed, and the height of the overlap between the two can be adjusted according to the actual situation on site, thereby adjusting the height of the entire device.

[0084] Embodiment 1:

[0085] The receiving part 1 comprises a fixing plate 1-1 and a fixing assembly 1-2. The fixing plate 1-1 is used to place the drone body, and the fixing assembly 1-2 is used to fix the drone body and play a limiting role, preventing the drone body from moving on the fixing plate 1-1 and thus falling.

[0086] The fixed plate 1-1 is fixed to the end of the connecting plate, and a slide rail 1-1-1 is arranged on the fixed plate 1-1. The fixed assembly 1-2 is fixed to the upper side of the fixed plate 1-1 through the slide rail 1-1-1. The fixed plate 1-1 is arranged horizontally to serve as a storage; the connecting plate is arranged vertically to serve as a support.

[0087] The receiving member 1, the connecting rod 2 and the supporting member 3 are arranged to assist the UAV in taking off and landing. The structure is simple, the use is convenient and the problems in the process of taking off and landing of the UAV can be solved at the same time.

[0088] like Figure 2 As shown, a slide rail 1-1-1 is provided on the fixing plate 1-1 for the fixing component 1-2 to move on the fixing plate 1-1. The fixing component 1-2 is used to limit the movement of the UAV and plays a limiting role to fix the UAV and prevent it from falling. When the UAV takes off, it moves away from the UAV body. When the UAV lands, it moves towards the direction close to the UAV until it is close to the UAV body.

[0089] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, at least two groups of fixing components 1-2 are provided.

[0090] When two groups are set, they are set on opposite sides of the drone body, which can be left and right, front and back, or even diagonally around the center point of the fixing plate 1-1, to ensure that the drone body can be fixed. The drone body is fixed in a diagonal direction to ensure that there is no gap on the fixing plate 1-1 for the drone body to move. The position and number of the slide rails 1-1-1 are set according to the needs of the fixing component 1-2.

[0091] When three groups are set, the distances between two adjacent fixing components 1-2 are equal and they are arranged in equal proportion around the UAV fuselage to ensure that there is no gap on the fixing plate 1-1 for the UAV fuselage to move. The position and number of the slide rails 1-1-1 are set according to the needs of the fixing components 1-2.

[0092] The fixing component 1-2 includes a fixing component 1-2-1, a limiting plate 1-2-2 and a limiting fixture 1-2-3.

[0093] The fixed component 1-2-1 can specifically adopt existing transmission methods on the market, such as gear transmission, sprocket rotation, and electric transmission. The specific selection can be made based on its weight, control method and control accuracy, as well as the on-site environment.

[0094] The limiting plate 1-2-2 is preferably a rectangular thin plate, which is light enough to ensure that the movement of the drone body can be limited.

[0095] The limit fixture 1-2-3 can be made of rubber gaskets, inflatable airbags or other easily deformable and soft materials or structures to ensure that it can fit tightly against the drone body without causing damage to the surface of the fuselage.

[0096] The fixed component 1-2-1 is used to control the movement of the limit plate 1-2-2. The staff can turn on the switch to observe and control it without manually adjusting the position of the limit plate 1-2-2.

[0097] The limit plate 1-2-2 is vertically fixed on the fixing assembly 1-2-1 on the upper side of the fixing plate 1-1, and moves along the direction of the slide rail 1-1-1. The limit plate 1-2-2 and the fixing plate 1-1 fix the UAV fuselage in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction respectively, ensuring the stability of the UAV fuselage fixation;

[0098] The limit fixture 1-2-3 is fixed on the side of the limit plate 1-2-2, specifically arranged on the side close to the center of the fixed plate 1-1, and acts as a buffer. It is used to be close to the outside of the drone body. Because direct contact with the limit plate 1-2-2 may cause damage to the drone body, the limit fixture 1-2-3 is used as a buffer.

[0099] The support member 3 includes a storage box 3-1 and a base 3-2. The storage box 3-1 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 2, and the base 3-2 is fixed to the side of the storage box 3-1.

[0100] The receiving part 1 is provided with a fixing plate 1-1 and a fixing component 1-2 to further strengthen the fixing of the drone.

[0101] The storage box 3-1 is used to store the connecting rod 2 and the base 3-2, and the base 3-2 is used to fix the remaining components of the device of the present invention on the ground.

[0102] The base 3-2 is fixed to the bottom of the storage box 3-1 or extends from the bottom of the storage box 3-1 into the storage box 3-1 and is fixed therein, and the connecting rod 2 extends from the upper part of the storage box 3-1 into the storage box 3-1.

[0103] The connection method of the connecting rod 2 and the storage box 3-1 can adopt the following structures:

[0104] Structure 1: a threaded hole is provided on the upper part of the storage box 3-1, and an external thread is provided on the surface of the connecting rod 2, and the two are fixed by threaded connection. In addition, in order to make the connection between the two adjustable, so that the height of the fixing plate 1-1 can also be adjusted, a deeper connection hole can be provided, and the height of the fixing plate 1-1 can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the threaded connection;

[0105] Structure 2: On the basis of the threaded connection, in order to make the height of the fixing plate 1-1 adjustable, the connecting rod 2 can be a telescopic rod;

[0106] Structure 3, holes are set on the sides of the storage box 3-1 and the connecting rod 2, and then a rod is set to extend into the hole for fixing. In order to make the height of the fixing plate 1-1 adjustable, multiple holes can be set on the side of the connecting rod 2 and adjusted according to the required height.

[0107] Embodiment 2:

[0108] On the basis of Example 1, the structure of the fixed component 1-2-1 is further limited. Although the climate types in Xinjiang are diverse, most areas belong to the temperate continental climate. This type of climate is characterized by a large temperature difference between day and night and four distinct seasons. In spring and autumn, due to the large temperature difference, air convection is strong, which easily leads to strong winds. In winter, it may be affected by the southward movement of cold air and the terrain, forming a stronger storm. Therefore, from the comprehensive perspective of cost and control performance, the electric mode with better automatic control performance is selected.

[0109] Specifically, the fixed component 1-2-1 includes a controller 1-2-1-1, a stepper motor 1-2-1-2 and a moving plate 1-2-1-3. The output end of the controller 1-2-1-1 is connected to the input end of the stepper motor 1-2-1-2. The stepper motor 1-2-1-2 is controlled by the controller 1-2-1-1, and the stepper motor 1-2-1-2 further controls the movement of the moving plate 1-2-1-3.

[0110] The controller 1-2-1-1 is fixed to the side of the connecting rod 2, freeing up more space on the fixing plate 1-1 for placing the remaining moving parts and the drone fuselage.

[0111] The stepper motor 1-2-1-2 is fixed on the moving plate 1-2-1-3. The output shaft of the stepper motor 1-2-1-2 passes through the outer side of one end of the moving plate 1-2-1-3, and a rotating wheel is fixed thereon. The rotating wheel is meshed with a traveling wheel. The traveling wheel is embedded in the slide rail 1-1-1, and the traveling wheel is fixed to the side of the moving plate 1-2-1-3 by a screw 1-2-1-4.

[0112] The specific operation process is that the output shaft of the stepper motor 1-2-1-2 rotates to drive the rotating wheel, and the rotating wheel synchronously drives the meshing walking wheel to rotate. The rotation of the walking wheel allows it to move inside the embedded slide rail 1-1-1, thereby driving the remaining components attached thereto, such as the moving plate 1-2-1-3, the limit plate 1-2-2, the limit fixture 1-2-3, etc. to move.

[0113] The controller 1-2-1-1 can be a simple one that only controls the forward and backward rotation of the moving plate 1-2-1-3, or a complex one that can set the forward / backward speed and distance. If a complex controller 1-2-1-1 is selected, a scale can also be set on the slide rail 1-1-1 to facilitate the staff to judge the specific value of the forward / backward distance without the staff having to keep their eyes on the moving plate 1-2-1-3.

[0114] The number of stepper motors 1-2-1-2, the number of rotating wheels and the number of running wheels are determined according to actual conditions and are not fixed. In this embodiment, one stepper motor 1-2-1-2 is provided, and two running wheels are provided for meshing with the stepper motor 1-2-1-2. In order to reduce the friction generated during the movement of the moving plate 1-2-1-3, two running wheels are provided, and the running wheels meshing with the rotating wheels drive the moving plate 1-2-1-3 to rotate.

[0115] Stepper motors 1-2-1-2 can also be set on both sides of the moving plate 1-2-1-3, and the two stepper motors 1-2-1-2 drive two rotating wheels, and the two rotating wheels drive four walking wheels, so that the moving process of the moving plate 1-2-1-3 is more efficient and the friction is smaller. The specific number is determined by the number of stepper motors 1-2-1-2 and the overall weight of the components on the moving plate 1-2-1-3, which can reduce the weight while ensuring efficiency.

[0116] Embodiment 3:

[0117] On the basis of Example 1, the structure of the limit clamp 1-2-3 is further limited. As a buffer, the inflatable airbag is usually better than rubber in absorbing and dispersing impact energy, and has higher flexibility. The size of the airbag can be adjusted by the amount of gas in the airbag.

[0118] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the specific structure is that the limit fixture 1-2-3 includes a limit body 1-2-3-1, an air pump 1-2-3-3 inflation conduit 1-2-3-2 and an air pump 1-2-3-3, and the air pump 1-2-3-3 inflation conduit 1-2-3-2 connects the limit body 1-2-3-1 and the air pump 1-2-3-3. The limit body 1-2-3-1 is an air bag, which is hollow inside, and the air pump 1-2-3-3 inflates the limit body 1-2-3-1 through the air pump 1-2-3-3 inflation conduit 1-2-3-2. The control method is simple and convenient

[0119] Embodiment 4:

[0120] On the basis of Example 1, the connection method of the connecting rod 2 and the storage box 3-1 is further limited. The structure 1 in Example 1 causes the storage box 3-1 to be too heavy due to the deeper threaded hole; the connecting rod 2 in the structure 2 is a telescopic rod, which is not safe and durable enough, and its use is subject to various restrictions such as the use environment, load-bearing capacity, and usage method, so the method of structure 3 is selected.

[0121] The specific structure is that a connecting hole is set on the side of the storage box 3-1, and a fixing bolt 3-1-1 is set in the connecting hole. The fixing bolt 3-1-1 passes through the connecting hole and the fixing hole set on the side of the connecting rod 2 for threaded connection. The fixing bolt 3-1-1 can also be placed independently when not in use.

[0122] The double-hole plus fixed rod structure allows the storage box 3-1 and the connecting rod 2 to be detachable, and can be independently completed during transportation, storage or maintenance.

[0123] Embodiment 5:

[0124] On the basis of the above embodiment, a camera 1-1-2 is arranged on the upper side of the fixing plate 1-1, and the staff observes the alignment of the camera 1-1-2 and the cross cursor on the drone body to determine whether the device of the present invention can accurately receive the drone body.

[0125] Embodiment 6:

[0126] On the basis of the above embodiment, an electromagnet 1-1-3 is arranged at the center of the fixing plate 1-1. The UAV is firmly fixed on the apron through the magnetic adsorption of the electromagnet 1-1-3, so as to improve the stability of the UAV taking off and landing on the fixing plate 1-1.

[0127] Embodiment 7:

[0128] On the basis of the above embodiment, the material and structure of the connecting rod 2 are limited, and the interior of the connecting rod 2 is hollow, so as to reduce the overall weight of the connecting rod 2.

[0129] The connecting rod 2 is made of carbon fiber, which has a low density. The made rod is very light and easy to use and carry. At the same time, it has high strength and modulus, and can withstand large loads without deformation or breakage. It also has excellent wear resistance. The most important thing is that it has high thermal stability and can maintain stable performance in a high temperature environment. It can still work normally under high temperature conditions and adapt to the high temperature environment in Xinjiang.

[0130] Embodiment 8:

[0131] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the base 3-2 is specifically a triangular support frame, and a support frame available on the market that can adjust the angle of the support legs is selected.

[0132] In addition, in order to improve the grip of the device, an inclination angle is set on the side of the support frame that contacts the ground when in use. The inclination angle is triangular, which can be closer to the ground. At the same time, rubber is set on the side where the inclination angle is set.
