Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0028] Secondly, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When detailing the embodiments of the present invention, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not according to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, actual fabrication should include three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth.

[0029] Example 1, referring to Figures 1 to 2 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a battery installation device, including a main body mechanism 100, including a battery frame 101 and a battery body 102 disposed on the inner wall of the battery frame 101, and a power cable 103 disposed at the bottom end of the battery body 102; and an installation mechanism 200 disposed on the surface of the battery frame 101, the installation mechanism 200 including a slot 201 and a connecting component 202 disposed on the slot 201, the slot 201 and the connecting component 202 cooperating to quickly place the battery into the battery frame 101.

[0030] Specifically, there are two sets of card slots 201, which are located on both sides of the surface of the battery frame 101.

[0031] The connecting component 202 includes a fixed frame 202a fixedly connected to the surface of the battery body 102 and a first spring 202b disposed on the inner walls of both ends of the fixed frame 202a.

[0032] Furthermore, a block is fixedly connected to the end of the first spring 202b, and the fixed block 202c is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame 202a; the upper surface of the fixed block 202c is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slot 201.

[0033] It should be noted that the installation mechanism 200 uses two sets of slots 201 on both sides of the surface of the battery frame 101, in conjunction with the connecting component 202, to achieve quick positioning and fixation of the battery. The fixing frame 202a in the connecting component 202 is fixedly connected to the surface of the battery body 102, and first springs 202b are provided on the inner walls of both ends of the fixing frame 202a. The ends of these springs are connected to fixing blocks 202c, which can slide within the fixing frame 202a and slide in connection with the inner wall of the slots 201. This design allows the fixing blocks 202c to slide into the slots 201 when installing the battery, using the spring force to quickly fix the battery, and also facilitates the removal of the battery, thus improving the efficiency of battery replacement.

[0034] Example 2, refer to Figures 1 to 5 The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: a sliding groove 202d is provided on the surface of the battery frame 101, and the sliding groove 202d is located in the middle of the two sets of slots 201; a slider 202e is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 202d, and telescopic rods 202f are fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the slider 202e, and two sets of telescopic rods 202f are provided.

[0035] Specifically, the ends of the two sets of telescopic rods 202f are fixedly connected to compression blocks 202g. It is worth noting that the side of the compression blocks 202g that is close to each other abuts against the surface of the power cable 103. The arc surface of the telescopic rod 202f is fitted with a second spring 202h. The two ends of the second spring 202h are fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 202f and the compression block 202g respectively. The surface of the compression block 202g is provided with a limiting groove 202i. The inner walls of the two sets of limiting grooves 202i are engaged with the limiting frame 202j.

[0036] Furthermore, the cross-section of the fixing block 202c is inclined, and the cross-sectional dimensions of the fixing block 202c are adapted to the cross-sectional dimensions of the slot 201. The extrusion block 202g is provided with an inlay groove 202k, and a friction strip 202l is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inlay groove 202k. The friction strip 202l is made of rubber.

[0037] It should be noted that the sliding groove 202d on the surface of the battery frame 101 is located in the middle of the two sets of slots 201, and this middle position is used for the power cable 103 to pass through. The slider 202e slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 202d and the telescopic rods 202f fixedly connected to both sides of its surface together constitute an adjustable clamping mechanism. The pressing blocks 202g fixedly connected to the ends of the two sets of telescopic rods 202f abut against the surface of the power cable 103. By the extension and retraction of the telescopic rods 202f, the position of the pressing blocks 202g can be adjusted, thereby applying pressure to the power cable 103 to achieve the fixation and protection of the power cable 103. The second spring 202h sleeved on the arc surface of the telescopic rod 202f provides the necessary elasticity to ensure that the pressing blocks 202g can tightly clamp the power cable 103, while allowing a certain adjustment range to accommodate power cables 103 of different diameters.

[0038] The surface of the extrusion block 202g is provided with a limiting groove 202i. The inner walls of the two sets of limiting grooves 202i are engaged with the limiting frame 202j. This setting further enhances the fixing effect of the power cable 103 and prevents the power cable 103 from loosening due to vibration during the flight of the drone. The cross-section of the fixing block 202c is inclined and matches the cross-sectional size of the slot 201, so that the fixing block 202c can slide into the slot 201 more smoothly, realizing the rapid positioning and fixing of the battery.

[0039] In addition, a rubber friction strip 202l is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inlay groove 202k on the extrusion block 202g. The rubber friction strip 202l increases the friction between the extrusion block 202g and the power cable 103, improving the stability of the power cable 103 fixation. It also plays a certain role in buffering and protection, reducing the damage that the power cable 103 may suffer during the fixation process.

[0040] The rest of the structure is the same as in Example 1.

[0041] Example 3, referring to Figures 3 to 5 The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that: both sides of one end of the slider 202e are fixedly connected to the insert block 202m, and the bottom of the inner wall of the slide groove 202d is provided with an insertion hole 202n corresponding to the position of the insert block 202m. The inner wall of the insertion hole 202n is inserted into the surface of the insert block 202m.

[0042] Specifically, an auxiliary groove 202o is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 202d. The cross-section of the auxiliary groove 202o is arc-shaped, and the cross-sectional dimensions of the auxiliary groove 202o are adapted to the cross-sectional dimensions of the power cable 103.

[0043] Furthermore, four clamping plates 202p are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the battery frame 101. The bottom cross-section of the four clamping plates 202p is "L" shaped. The four clamping plates 202p are evenly distributed on the four peripheral corner surfaces of the battery frame 101. The surface of the clamping plates 202p abuts against the surface of the battery body 102. The upper cross-section of the extrusion block 202g is conical. The extrusion block 202g is a hard alloy block.

[0044] It should be noted that the plugs 202m fixedly connected to both sides of one end of the slider 202e are inserted into the sockets 202n at the bottom of the inner wall of the slide groove 202d. This arrangement locks the position of the slider 202e, ensuring its stable fixation in the slide groove 202d. When the slider 202e moves to the appropriate position, and the power cable 103 is fixed by the compression block 202g, the cooperation between the plugs 202m and the sockets 202n prevents the slider 202e from shifting due to vibration or external force, thereby ensuring the stable connection of the power cable 103 and the reliability of the battery installation.

[0045] The auxiliary groove 202o, which is opened at the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 202d, has an arc-shaped cross-section and its size is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the power cable 103, thus providing additional support and protection for the power cable 103. The arc shape of the auxiliary groove 202o can evenly distribute the pressure on the power cable 103, reduce the stress concentration of the cable at the fixed point, thereby reducing the risk of cable damage and extending its service life.

[0046] Four clamping plates 202p are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the battery frame 101. The bottom cross section is L-shaped and they are evenly distributed on the four corner surfaces of the battery frame 101, abutting against the surface of the battery body 102. This arrangement not only enhances the structural stability of the battery frame 101, but also provides additional fixing points to ensure that the battery body 102 is stable and immovable inside the battery frame 101, so that the battery can maintain a stable position even when the drone experiences severe vibration or high-speed flight.

[0047] The upper section of the extrusion block 202g is conical and made of hard alloy, which allows the extrusion block 202g to provide greater contact pressure when fixing the battery. The conical design helps to concentrate the pressure and ensure a tight contact between the battery and the battery frame 101, while the hard alloy material ensures the wear resistance and durability of the extrusion block 202g, so that its performance can be maintained even when the battery is frequently replaced.

[0048] The rest of the structure is the same as in Example 2.

[0049] Operation Process: During the operation of the drone, the drone battery will need to be replaced. To facilitate the installation and fixation of the battery body 102, the installation mechanism 200 is used for assistance. First, the power cable 103 at one end of the entire battery body 102 is passed through the groove 202d on the surface of the battery frame 101. Then, the surface of the power cable 103 is abutted against the slider 202e sliding in the groove 202d, allowing the power cable 103 to pass through the two pressing blocks 202g on the surface of the sliding block. At this time, the pressing blocks 202g are pressed and fixed in position by the pressing force generated by the second spring 202h. Finally, the limiting frame 202j is engaged with the two pressing blocks 202g. To prevent the power cable 103 from falling off, the battery body 102 is then slid against the inner wall of the battery frame 101. Simultaneously, the fixing block 202c, which extends and retracts on the surface of the battery body 102 via the fixing frame 202a, engages with the slot 201 on the surface of the battery frame 101. During this process, the fixing block 202c is contracted and limited by the tensile force generated by the first spring 202b. Then, the power cable 103 is slid along the slider 202e until the insertion block 202m fixed at one end of the slider 202e engages with the insertion hole 202n on one side of the bottom of the groove 202d. At this point, the position between the battery body 102 and the battery frame 101 is fixed and cannot shift, facilitating better installation and positioning.
