Specific implementation manners

[0029] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the description, claims and above-mentioned drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily need to be used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such terms can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, which is only a way of distinction adopted when describing objects with the same attributes in the embodiments of this application. In addition, the terms "comprising" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of units does not necessarily have to be limited to those units, but may include other units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0030] Embodiment: Please refer to Figures 1-4 , in the embodiment of the present invention, a surveying, collecting and mapping device for urban and rural planning geographic information is provided, including:

[0031] A surveying vehicle 1, on which a surveying instrument is installed;

[0032] A drone platform 2, which is fixed on the surveying vehicle 1;

[0033] A drone 5, which can park on the drone platform 2 and fly away from the drone platform 2;

[0034] Among them, the drone 5 includes a fuselage 51, a camera 52, a folding arm 53, legs 54 and a charging plug 56;

[0035] The camera 52 is used to obtain the first image information and plan the first movement route according to the first image information, and the survey vehicle 1 moves and surveys according to the first movement route.

[0036] During implementation, it includes the following steps:

[0037] Step 1: Ensure that the survey vehicle 1, the UAV platform 2, and the UAV 5 are all in good working condition. Check the performance of devices such as the surveying instrument and the camera 52 to ensure the accuracy and integrity of data collection. Park the UAV 5 on the UAV platform 2 to ensure stable connection for easy takeoff and recovery.

[0038] Step 2: Operate the UAV 5 to take off from the UAV platform 2. The UAV 5 obtains the first image information of the target area through the camera 52. According to the obtained first image information, the UAV 5 plans the first movement route, which is designed to cover all areas that need to be surveyed.

[0039] Step 3: The survey vehicle 1 moves according to the first movement route planned by the UAV 5. During the movement, the surveying instrument on the survey vehicle 1 collects detailed geographical information of the areas along the line.

[0040] Step 4: After completing the survey task, the UAV 5 returns to the UAV platform 2 for parking and charging.

[0041] In this embodiment, the collaborative work of the UAV 5 and the survey vehicle 1 greatly improves the survey efficiency. The UAV 5 can quickly cover a large area, provide an accurate movement route for the survey vehicle 1, and reduce unnecessary movement and repeated surveys.

[0042] In addition, the UAV 5 can take off and recover quickly from the UAV platform 2 on the survey vehicle 1, which is convenient for surveying operations in different locations and conditions. The combination of the UAV and the survey vehicle enables the entire system to adapt to various complex terrain and environmental conditions.

[0043] Furthermore, a positioning component 4 corresponding to the leg 54 and an alignment control component 3 corresponding to the charging plug 56 are provided on the UAV platform 2. When the UAV platform 2 receives the UAV 5, the positioning component 4 first completes the positioning of the leg 54, then the alignment control component 3 completes the alignment of the charging plug 56, and finally the positioning component 4 completes the clamping of the leg 54.

[0044] The positioning component 4 and the alignment control component 3 on the UAV platform 2 achieve the automatic docking and charging of the UAV 5, greatly improving the operation efficiency. It reduces manual intervention, lowers the operation difficulty and cost. During the return and charging process of the UAV, through precise mechanical structure control, the stability and safety of the docking are ensured. The risk of the UAV falling or being damaged due to improper docking is avoided.

[0045] In this embodiment, a stepped card slot 57 is provided on the side of the leg 54, and a second magnetic attraction alignment block 55 is embedded in the leg 54;

[0046] The positioning component 4 at least includes a positioning seat 41, a positioning frame 42 and an elastic member 43. Among them, the middle of the positioning seat 41 has an opening, two symmetrically arranged positioning frames 42 are slidably arranged in the positioning seat 41, the upper end of the positioning frame 42 extends out of the opening, and an elastic member 43 is arranged between the positioning frame 42 and the positioning seat 41.

[0047] And a first magnetic attraction alignment block 46 corresponding to the second magnetic attraction alignment block 55 is arranged in the middle of the opening of the positioning seat 41, and the bottom of the first magnetic attraction alignment block 46 is connected to the positioning seat 41 by a support member 47.

[0048] Therefore, by using the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic attraction alignment block 46 to the second magnetic attraction alignment block 55, the positioning component 4 can complete the positioning of the leg 54. The elastic clamping mechanism of the positioning frame 42 provides further stability and safety, ensuring that the UAV will not fall off due to external interference after docking.

[0049] Furthermore, the support member 47 has elasticity.

[0050] In addition, a limit block 44 corresponding to the card slot 57 of the leg 54 is fixed on one side of the positioning frame 42 where they are close to each other. A guide block 45 attached to the positioning frame 42 is arranged at intervals below the limit block 44, and the guide block 45 is trapezoidal.

[0051] And the elastic member 43 is made of a slow reset material, such as memory cotton material, and the memory cotton material is a special polyurethane foam material.

[0052] In this way, when the restriction of the limit block 44 on the card slot 57 of the leg 54 is released, the UAV 5 moves downwards to drive the leg 54 to move downwards to push the guide block 45, so that the positioning frames 42 move away from each other. And because the elastic member 43 is made of a slow reset material, therefore, in a short time, the positioning frames 42 will not reset, and the limit block 44 releases the restriction on the card slot 57 of the leg 54. At this time, the UAV 5 can take off directly. As the UAV 5 leaves, the elastic member 43 starts to slowly rebound, pushing the positioning frames 42 to reset, and getting ready for the next docking.

[0053] In summary, by introducing the unlocking mechanism before the drone takes off, the urban and rural planning geographic information survey and mapping equipment has achieved higher safety and efficiency in terms of drone docking, charging, and takeoff.

[0054] In this embodiment, the alignment control component 3 includes:

[0055] An alignment seat 31, which is fixed on the drone platform 2;

[0056] An installation groove 35, which is fixed in the alignment seat 31;

[0057] A charging groove 37, which is fixed in the installation groove 35 by an elastic cylinder 36.

[0058] A motor 32 is also arranged in the alignment seat 31. The output end of the motor 32 is fixed with a winding and unwinding wheel 33. An alignment pull rope 34 is wound on the winding and unwinding wheel 33, and the other end of the alignment pull rope 34 is connected to the drone 5.

[0059] The alignment pull rope 34 can directly supply power to the drone 5. The alignment pull rope 34 is at least divided into two parts, and the two parts are electrically connected in a magnetic attraction manner.

[0060] Therefore, when the drone 5 completes its flight mission and needs to return to the drone platform 2 for charging, the alignment pull rope 34 can play a role in recovery. By driving the winding and unwinding wheel 33 to reverse by the motor 32, the alignment pull rope 34 can be gradually tightened, thereby pulling the drone 5 closer to the drone platform 2. This rough recovery method helps the drone quickly approach the drone platform approximately, and also facilitates the subsequent precise docking.

[0061] After the drone 5 approaches the drone platform 2, the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic alignment block 46 and the second magnetic alignment block 55 starts to take effect. These two magnetic alignment blocks are respectively fixed on the drone platform 2 and the leg 54 of the drone 5, and the magnetic attraction between them can guide the leg 54 of the drone 5 to accurately enter the positioning component 4.

[0062] The positioning component 4 then ensures that the leg 54 can be stably and accurately docked to the predetermined position under the action of the magnetic attraction. As the leg 54 is further inserted, the positioning frame 42 and the elastic member 43 start to play a role, and they can clamp the leg 54 to prevent the drone 5 from moving during the charging process.

[0063] It should be noted that in some special cases, for example, in case of strong wind weather, the alignment guy wire 34 is likely to be blown by the wind and thus affect the drone 5. In this case, the alignment guy wire 34 can be disconnected. Another example is that in areas with many trees, the trees are likely to affect the alignment guy wire 34, and in this case, the alignment guy wire 34 can also be disconnected.

[0064] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, making equivalent replacements or changes should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
