Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle mounting equipment, and in particular to a shock-absorbing structure for mounting an emergency material box of an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The UAV emergency material box mounting structure technology originates from the innovation and upgrading of the traditional rescue mode by modern technology. In practical applications, it can effectively solve the problems faced by ground rescue teams in complex geographical environments, such as the difficulty of carrying materials and slow response speed. By combining the emergency material box with the UAV and taking advantage of the flexible, fast and long-distance transmission characteristics of the UAV, the efficiency and accuracy of the rescue work are greatly improved.

[0003] The mounting structure design is the core of the entire technology, and its stability and safety directly affect the delivery effect of emergency supplies. In the design process of the mounting structure, it is necessary to fully consider factors such as the aerodynamic performance of the drone during flight and the uniformity of load distribution to ensure that the emergency material box will not be displaced or fall off during transportation.

[0004] Conventional drone emergency material box mounting structures mainly rely on mechanical connections, such as bolts, nuts, washers and other fasteners to connect the emergency material box to the drone body. Mechanical connection structures usually include multiple parts, and the weight of these parts will affect the overall performance of the drone, especially when performing long-term and long-distance flight missions. The accumulated weight will consume more energy and reduce flight efficiency.

[0005] The drone emergency material box mounting structure is an important part of the drone emergency rescue system. It is mainly used to quickly and accurately mount various emergency rescue materials during the emergency rescue process so that the drone can deliver the materials to the disaster area or accident site in time. The design and implementation of this structure is of great significance to improving the efficiency of emergency rescue and reducing disaster losses.

[0006] The traditional mounting structure forms a fixed geometric shape and size between the drone and the emergency material box, which not only limits the drone's demand for emergency materials of different sizes and shapes when performing complex tasks, but may also lead to inefficient utilization of material space and even waste of precious emergency resources.

[0007] Therefore, it is an urgent problem for technical personnel in this field to provide a shock-absorbing structure for mounting emergency material boxes with good stability, simple structure and flexible space to solve the problems of complex mechanical structure, heavy structural weight, complex system and inflexible mounting space size of conventional UAV mounting systems. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a shock-absorbing structure for mounting an emergency material box of a UAV, which can solve the problems of complex mechanical structure, heavy structural weight, complex system and unstable structure of a conventional UAV mounting transmitter system.

[0009] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution proposed by the present invention is as follows: a shock-absorbing structure for mounting an emergency material box on a drone, comprising: a drone body bottom, a fixed guide rod, an emergency material box chain, an electromagnetic suction device and a landing gear;

[0010] The bottom of the drone body is fixedly installed on the drone, the landing gear is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body, the fixed guide rod is fixedly installed on the landing gear, the electromagnetic suction device is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body, the emergency material box chain is connected to the electromagnetic suction device, and the emergency material box chain is hooked with a locking hook on the emergency material box.

[0011] Preferably, the landing gear comprises a support frame top beam, a main landing gear and an auxiliary landing gear, and the main landing gear is connected between the support frame top beam and the auxiliary landing gear.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the drone fuselage is connected to the top beam of the support frame.

[0013] Preferably, the fixed guide rod is connected to the main landing gear or the auxiliary landing gear through a locking buckle.

[0014] Preferably, the secondary landing gear is arc-shaped.

[0015] Preferably, the electromagnetic suction device is a rectangular electromagnetic suction cup.

[0016] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effect is that the structure is relatively simple. When the helicopter is flying, the mounting structure of the emergency material box is simplified, the weight of the helicopter is reduced, the emergency material box can be smoothly dropped off, and the stability of the UAV is improved. It can solve the problems of complex mechanical structure, heavy structural weight, complex system and unstable structure of the conventional UAV installation generator system.

[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and beneficial technical effect of the present invention clearer, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be understood that the specific implementation methods described in this specification are only for explaining the present invention, not for limiting the present invention.

[0025] It should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms such as "install", "connect", "connect", "fix", "set" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be determined according to the specific circumstances.

[0026] In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first", "second", and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In addition, the meaning of "multiple" and "several" refers to two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 3 The present invention proposes a shock-absorbing structure for mounting an emergency material box of a drone, comprising: a drone body bottom 1, a fixed guide rod 2, an emergency material box chain 3, an electromagnetic suction device 4 and a landing gear 5;

[0028] The bottom 1 of the drone body is fixedly installed on the drone, the landing gear 5 is fixedly installed on the bottom 1 of the drone body, the fixed guide rod 2 is fixedly installed on the landing gear 5, the electromagnetic suction device 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom 1 of the drone body, and the emergency material box chain 3 is connected to the electromagnetic suction device 4.

[0029] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the electromagnetic suction device 4 can be a rectangular electromagnetic suction cup.

[0030] Three fixed guide rods 2 are arranged on the main landing gear 52 to ensure that the emergency material box 6 can be stably mounted through the fixed guide rods 2. The fixed guide rod 2 structure limits the emergency material box 6 and has a certain stability and adjustment ability to offset sudden force changes and maintain the correct flight attitude and route stability. In order to avoid the UAV from hitting the emergency material box 6 and the electromagnetic suction device 4 when landing on the mantle, the user must set the height of the landing gear 5 to be greater than the height of the emergency material box 6 thrower, and fixing mechanisms can be installed on the four corners of the landing gear 5.

[0031] The design of the shock-absorbing structure for mounting the emergency material box 6 adopted by the present invention is optimized and improved according to the type and purpose of the drone. Compared with the conventional method of throwing the emergency material box 6 of the conventional drone, the electromagnetic suction type emergency material box 6 throwing device adopts the landing gear 5 support, and the fixed guide rod 2 structure limits the emergency material box 6 to ensure the stability of the drone's navigation and the stability of throwing the emergency material box 6. When the helicopter is in flight, the mounting structure of the emergency material box 6 is simplified, the weight of the helicopter is reduced, the emergency material box 6 is smoothly dropped, and the stability of the drone is improved.

[0032] Furthermore, the landing gear 5 includes a support frame top beam 51, a main landing gear 52 and an auxiliary landing gear 53. The main landing gear 52 is connected between the support frame top beam 51 and the auxiliary landing gear 53. The support frame top beam 51 provides the necessary rigidity and strength. The main landing gear 52 is responsible for bearing and releasing the vertical load. The auxiliary landing gear 53 is installed at both ends of the main landing gear 52, which helps to improve the stability of the entire structure and the operational flexibility.

[0033] Furthermore, the bottom 1 of the drone body is located at the core of the entire mounting system, and is tightly connected to the top beam 51 of the support frame to form a stable fixed foundation. This design ensures that during rescue operations, the bottom 1 of the drone body can provide sufficient rigidity and stability for the mounting equipment to cope with the operation requirements in various complex environments.

[0034] Furthermore, the fixed guide rod 2 is firmly connected to the main landing gear 52 or the auxiliary landing gear 53 through the locking buckle 21. This design is intended to limit the emergency material box 6, ensure the stability of the drone's navigation and the stability of the emergency material box 6, so that the emergency material box 6 can be accurately delivered according to the preset trajectory.

[0035] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the auxiliary landing gear 53 is designed in an arc shape, wherein two fixed guide rods 2 are firmly connected to the auxiliary landing gear 53 through the locking buckle 21 and are respectively distributed on both sides of the emergency material box 6, and the remaining fixed guide rod 2 is firmly connected to the main landing gear 53 through the locking buckle 21 and is distributed between the two emergency material boxes 6, and the three fixed guide rods 2 are close to the emergency material box 6.

[0036] The present invention limits the emergency material box 6 by fixing guide rods 2 on the left and right sides of the emergency material box 6, so that the emergency material box 6 always maintains an extreme position. A fixed guide rod 2 is arranged in the middle of the two emergency material boxes 6 to be connected to the aircraft landing gear 5, thereby optimizing the unstable factors caused by the chain connection of the two emergency material boxes 6 and achieving a shock absorption effect.

[0037] Furthermore, the emergency material box chain 3 is hooked with the locking hook on the emergency material box 6, which plays a vital role in the system. This connection method not only ensures the stability of the emergency material box 6 during the throwing process, but also can be quickly separated when needed, thereby effectively avoiding misoperation or safety accidents caused by chain reactions.

[0038] When the drone reaches a certain altitude or a designated location, the electromagnetic suction device 4 starts to be powered off, so that the magnetic force of the coil disappears to achieve demagnetization, and the chain falls off from the electromagnetic suction device 4 along with the emergency material box 6.

[0039] The present invention is not limited to what is described in the specification and implementation modes, and therefore additional advantages and modifications can be easily realized by those skilled in the art. Therefore, without departing from the spirit and scope of the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details, representative devices, and illustrative examples shown and described herein.
