DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-Figure 8 The present invention provides a technical solution: an artificial intelligence drone for wildfire smoke detection, comprising a drone body 1, four corners of the drone body 1 are fixedly connected with support arms 2, one end of the support arms 2 is provided with a rotor 3, a mounting frame 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the drone body 1, two mounting rods 5 are plugged into the mounting frame 4, a fixing plate 1 7 and a fixing plate 2 8 are arranged below the two mounting rods 5, a smoke monitoring component 14 is arranged on the bottom surface of the fixing plate 2 8, and a landing gear 9 is installed on the bottom surface of the drone body 1 for supporting the landing of the entire device;

[0033] A threaded rod 10 is rotatably installed inside the mounting frame 4, an equipment box 12 is fixedly installed on one side surface of the mounting frame 4, a motor is installed inside the equipment box 12, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 10, a hook 6 is hung on the outer surface of the mounting rod 5, a C-shaped frame 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the hook 6, a threaded hole 13 is opened inside the C-shaped frame 11, the C-shaped frame 11 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 10 through the threaded hole 13, and a fixing plate 7 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the hook 6.

[0034] During operation, in the process of monitoring, the threaded rod 10 can be driven to rotate by controlling the start of the motor, thereby driving the hook 6 to move back and forth on the outer surface of the mounting rod 5, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the position of the smoke monitoring component 14 and the collection component 15, so that the monitoring range of the smoke detector 1405 is larger, and the range of air collection can also be increased, thereby further improving the overall practicality of the device.

[0035] A connecting block 16 is fixedly connected between the fixing plate 1 7 and the fixing plate 2 8. The smoke monitoring component 14 includes an electric telescopic rod 1401. One end of the electric telescopic rod 1401 is fixedly connected to a side surface of the connecting block 16. A through slot 1402 is provided on the top surface of the fixing plate 2 8. A clamping block 1403 is movably clamped inside the through slot 1402. A mounting plate 1404 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the clamping block 1403. A smoke detector 1405 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1404 for monitoring smoke. A storage box 1406 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the fixing plate 2 8. The size of the storage box 1406 is larger than that of the mounting plate 1404. The other end of the electric telescopic rod 1401 is fixedly connected to a side surface of the clamping block 1403.

[0036] During operation, when it is necessary to monitor the smoke in the target area, the drone body 1 is first controlled to fly to the target area. When the drone reaches the target area, the electric telescopic rod 1401 can be controlled to extend, thereby driving the clamping block 1403 to move inside the through slot 1402. During the movement, the mounting plate 1404 and the smoke detector 1405 originally stored in the storage box 1406 are moved out of the storage box 1406. In the process of flying in the target area, the data is returned through the monitoring of the smoke detector 1405, thereby realizing the smoke in the target area. Monitoring. After the monitoring is completed, it is only necessary to control the contraction of the electric telescopic rod 1401 to drive the clamping block 1403 to move in the direction of the storage box 1406 inside the through groove 1402, so that the smoke detector 1405 is re-stored into the storage box 1406. That is, during normal flight, the smoke detector 1405 is always located inside the storage box 1406 and is only released from the storage box 1406 during the monitoring process, so that the smoke detector 1405 is effectively protected during normal flight, thereby playing a good protective role.

[0037] A limiting groove 1409 is formed through the top surface of the fixing plate 7, and a limiting block 1410 is movably engaged inside the limiting groove 1409. One end of the limiting block 1410 is fixedly connected to the top of the engaging block 1403. In actual use, when the engaging block 1403 moves inside the through groove 1402, the limiting groove 1409 can be synchronously driven to move inside the limiting block 1410, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the engaging block 1403, that is, it can greatly improve the stability of the smoke detector 1405 during movement, and also can improve the ability of the smoke detector 1405 to stably monitor the smoke in the target area during flight monitoring, thereby greatly increasing the monitoring effect.

[0038] The bottom surface of the storage box 1406 is fixedly connected to a guide frame 1407, and the guide frame 1407 is streamlined. During flight monitoring, the airflow below the storage box 1406 will flow to the smoke detector 1405 through the streamline shape of the guide frame 1407. That is, during the monitoring process, it can be ensured that the airflow can reach the position of the smoke detector 1405, thereby further improving the monitoring effect of the smoke detector 1405, and the setting of the guide frame 1407 can also ensure that the drone body 1 is smoother during flight, thereby reducing the air resistance of the overall flight of the drone body 1.

[0039] Collection components 15 are provided on both sides of the storage box 1406. The collection components 15 include collection tanks 1501. There are two collection tanks 1501. The two collection tanks 1501 are fixedly installed on both sides of the storage box 1406. The insides of the collection tanks 1501 are sealed and clamped with plug discs 1502. The bottom surface of the collection tank 1501 is fixedly connected with a collection tube 1503. The outer surface of the collection tube 1503 is installed with a one-way valve 1504. A storage tank 1507 is fixedly installed on one side surface of the storage box 1406. A delivery tube is fixedly connected between the storage tank 1507 and the collection tank 1501. 1505, a one-way valve 1506 is installed on the outer surface of the delivery pipe 1505, a mounting frame 1509 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixed plate 8, a movable frame 1510 is movably connected to the outer surface of the mounting frame 1509, a bracket 1511 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the movable frame 1510, a clamping groove 1408 is provided inside the clamping block 1403, a connecting rod 1512 is provided between the bracket 1511 and the clamping block 1403, one end of the connecting rod 1512 is clamped inside the bracket 1511, and the other end of the connecting rod 1512 is clamped inside the clamping groove 1408.

[0040] During operation, when the electric telescopic rod 1401 drives the smoke detector 1405 to move out of the storage box 1406, that is, in the process of monitoring the target area, the movement of the clamping block 1403 can drive the angle between the connecting rod 1512 and the movable frame 1510 to become smaller, that is, under the action of the connecting rod 1512, the movable frame 1510 can be driven to move outside the mounting frame 1509 toward both sides of the fixed plate 17, thereby driving the connecting rod 1508 to move synchronously, and then driving the plug disc 1502 to perform suction inside the collection tank 1501, so that the air in the target area is sucked into the collection tube 1503. The interior of the collection tank 1501, during the process of storing the smoke detector 1405 after the monitoring is completed, can drive the movable frame 1510 to move toward the direction of the clamping block 1403, and then drive the plug plate 1502 to move toward the interior of the collection tank 1501, and squeeze the inhaled air into the storage tank 1507 through the delivery pipe 1505 for unified collection. After the drone body 1 lands, the storage tank 1507 can be removed, and the gas collected in the storage tank 1507 can be sent to the interior of the laboratory for testing, thereby realizing the collection of air in the target area, and making the monitoring effect of smoke in the target area more accurate.

[0041] Specifically, the working process or working principle of the artificial intelligence drone for wildfire smoke detection is as follows: when in use, the drone body 1 is controlled to fly to the target area. When the target area is reached, the electric telescopic rod 1401 can be controlled to extend, thereby driving the card block 1403 to move inside the through slot 1402, and the mounting plate 1404 and the smoke detector 1405 originally stored in the storage box 1406 are moved out from the storage box 1406, and the data is returned through the monitoring of the smoke detector 1405, thereby realizing the monitoring of the smoke in the target area. After the monitoring is completed, the electric telescopic rod 1401 is controlled to contract to drive the card block 1403 to move inside the through slot 1402 toward the storage box 1406, thereby re-storing the smoke detector 1405 into the storage box 1406, that is, during normal flight. The smoke detector 1405 is always located inside the storage box 1406 and is only released from the storage box 1406 during the monitoring process. When the electric telescopic rod 1401 drives the smoke detector 1405 to move out of the storage box 1406, the movement of the clamping block 1403 can drive the angle between the connecting rod 1512 and the movable frame 1510 to become smaller, and the air in the target area is sucked into the collection tank 1501 through the collection tube 1503. When the smoke detector 1405 is stored after the monitoring is completed, the movable frame 1510 can be driven to move in the direction of the clamping block 1403, and then the plug plate 1502 can be driven to move toward the inside of the collection tank 1501, and the inhaled air is squeezed into the storage tank 1507 through the delivery pipe 1505 for unified collection, thereby realizing the collection operation of the air in the target area.

[0042] It should be noted that the electric telescopic rod 1401 is a device or equipment existing in the prior art, or a device or equipment that can be realized in the prior art. Its power supply, specific composition and principle are clear to those skilled in the art, so they are not described in detail.
