The endurance and charging capacity of traditional lithium battery powered unmanned aerial vehicles have been unable to meet the long distance and long time operation requirements of related technical fields. Therefore, hydrogen energy fuel cells, with their high energy density, long endurance, environmental protection and other advantages, have gradually become the research and development direction of unmanned aerial vehicle energy technology field.
[0003] Due to the limitations of technology development, the fuel cell and hydrogen cylinder of the existing unmanned aerial vehicle are designed in a separate installation. On the one hand, this design occupies a large space, has a scattered layout, affects the compactness of the unmanned aerial vehicle structure, and leads to a decline in the flight performance of the unmanned aerial vehicle. On the other hand, this design relies on a plurality of miscellaneous mechanical fasteners such as bolts and buckles to position the fuel cell and hydrogen storage cylinder in a split body. The installation steps are cumbersome and the reliability is insufficient. In the process of unmanned aerial vehicle flight, in the case of unmanned aerial vehicle vibration or attitude mutation caused by air flow disturbance or physical impact, the separate design is prone to cause the relative axial displacement and radial deflection of the fuel cell and hydrogen cylinder, which causes the mechanical fasteners to loosen and the hydrogen transmission pipeline to repeatedly bear stress deformation and loosen, affecting the stability of energy supply and existing gas tightness failure risk.

The traditional lithium battery powered UAVs have problems such as short endurance time and long charging time, which are difficult to meet the demand of long distance and long time operation. Therefore, hydrogen fuel cell gradually becomes a research hotspot in the field of UAV energy with its advantages of high energy density, long endurance and environmental protection.
[0051] Due to the limitation of technology development, the existing hydrogen fuel cell system structure of the UAV has many problems.

[0067] It should be noted that since the cover frame 6 and the second support part are both rib structures, which include a plurality of parallelly distributed ribs, and each two ribs are provided with intermittent insertion grooves 5 therebetween. Therefore, the cover frame 6 is provided with the same through-type sliding groove 72 on the side surface of each rib, and the second support part is provided with the same plurality of second mounting holes 71 on the side surface of each rib. For the convenience of understanding and description, the present application briefly describes the through-type sliding groove 72 provided on the side surface of the cover frame 6 and the plurality of second mounting holes 71 provided on the side surface of the second support part.
[0068] The preferred embodiment cooperates with the cover frame 6 rotating mechanism to open several second mounting holes 71 on the side of the second support part. For hydrogen cylinders 4 of different sizes, when the cover frame 6 is adjusted to the appropriate position, the through sliding groove 72 will be aligned with the corresponding second mounting hole 71, and the second screw 76 can pass through the through sliding groove 72 and the corresponding second mounting hole 71 and be screwed with the second nut 78, thereby achieving the fastening of the cover frame 6 and the second support part, keeping the second installation space at the size at the moment, and completing the locking and fastening of the hydrogen cylinder 4 in the second installation space.

The bottom of each limiting sliding strip 73 is connected to the pressing block 75 through the connecting block 74.
[0070] The preferred embodiment cooperates with the cover frame 6 rotating mechanism to slide the limiting sliding strip 73 at the through sliding groove 72. When the second installation space is fixed with the hydrogen cylinder 4, the two limiting sliding strips 73 can slide in the through sliding groove 72 in cooperation with the rotation of the cover frame 6, and at this time, the two pressing blocks 75 at the bottom of the two limiting sliding strips 73 will cooperate with the sliding of the limiting sliding strip 73 to jointly press and limit the hydrogen cylinder 4 in the second installation space from two directions; when the cover frame 6 is rotated to the most appropriate position corresponding to the size of the hydrogen cylinder 4, the limiting sliding strip 73 is correspondingly slid to the most appropriate position corresponding to the size of the hydrogen cylinder 4, so that the two pressing blocks 75 jointly press the hydrogen cylinder 4 from two directions to exert sufficient pressure on it, thereby completing the locking and fastening of the hydrogen cylinder 4.

[0087] Finally, the integrated fixing device with fuel cell 3 and hydrogen cylinder 4 is installed on the UAV, the UAV connecting part is sleeved on the third screw 12 penetrating the arc hole 11, the third nut 13 is tightened, and the interlaced structure of the bottom frame 1, the top frame 2 and the cover frame 6 is tightly contacted, and the overall installation is completed.
[0088] The unmanned aerial vehicle integrated fixing device and hydrogen energy fuel cell provided by the application has at least the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0089] First, the bottom frame 1 and the top frame 2 are interlaced with the unique rib structure, and the rib features formed by the intermittent slot 5 are used to achieve the integrated and compact layout of the fuel cell 3 and the hydrogen cylinder 4. Compared with the traditional separate installation, the space occupation on the UAV is greatly reduced, and the overall structure is optimized. At the same time, the cover frame 6 on both sides of the top frame 2 is rotatably connected, and the cover frame 6 is interlaced with the unique rib structure of the bottom frame 1 to limit the locking of the cover frame 6 and the second support part, so as to realize the accurate and stable limiting of the hydrogen cylinder 4. This interlacing of the rib structures of the two frame bodies improves the integrity of the fuel cell 3 and the hydrogen cylinder 4 during installation, reduces the influence of relative vibration and impact of the two during UAV flight, ensures the stable installation of the fuel cell 3 and the hydrogen cylinder 4, and enhances the reliability and safety of the UAV in complex environments. An innovative and practical solution is provided for efficient application of the UAV hydrogen energy fuel cell 3 system.
[0090] Second, the second screw 76 penetrates the intersection of the second installation hole 71 and the slot hole of the second support part on the side through type sliding groove 72 of the cover frame 6. According to actual needs, the second screw 76 can be inserted into different second installation holes 71 to realize accurate fixing after the cover frame 6 is finely adjusted, and the fixing space of the hydrogen cylinder 4 is optimized. At the same time, the adjusting block 77 sleeved on both ends of the second screw 76 will drive the sliding strip and push the rubber pressure block 75 to press the hydrogen cylinder 4 during the tightening process of the second nut 78. This not only effectively prevents the hydrogen cylinder 4 from sliding by using the high friction coefficient of the rubber pressure block 75, but also changes the pressure degree by adjusting the fixed position of the second screw 76 through ingenious structure design, greatly enhancing the stability of the two hydrogen cylinders 4 in the second installation space and the third installation space, and ensuring the safety and stability of the hydrogen cylinder 4 during UAV flight.
[0091] Third, by setting an arc hole 11 between the first support part of the top frame 2 and the rotation point of the cover frame 6 and the second support part of the bottom frame 1, a dedicated space is created for the installation of the entire frame of the fuel cell 3 on the drone. When the third screw 12 passes through the arc hole 11, the drone connection part can be easily fitted onto it, and the third nut 13 is used to achieve pressure fixation. In this process, the tightening of the third nut 13 not only brings the distance between the bottom frame 1 and the top frame 2 closer, but also tightens the rotation point of the cover frame 6, making the interlocking connection structure formed by the bottom frame 1, the top frame 2 and the cover frame 6 more compact. This design comprehensively enhances the stability of the overall installation structure, ensuring that the hydrogen fuel cell 3 can always remain stable during the flight of the drone and effectively resist various vibrations and impacts.
