AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies are insufficient to effectively assess a drone's ability to withstand non-repeating impacts during transport, leading to component damage and performance degradation, and increasing after-sales costs.

Method used

Design an impact testing device that includes a support platform, a positioning and adjustment mechanism, a lifting mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a flipping mechanism. By adjusting the position and attitude of the test specimen, the clamping mechanism is used to make the test specimen fall under the action of gravity to conduct an impact test and evaluate its impact resistance performance.

Benefits of technology

It simplifies the drone impact testing process, enabling reliable assessment of drone product vulnerability, ensuring safety during transportation, and avoiding economic losses.

Abstract

This invention discloses an impact testing device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), comprising a support platform; a positioning and adjustment mechanism disposed on the support platform for adjusting the position and attitude of the test specimen to an initial test attitude after the test specimen is placed on the support platform; a lifting mechanism disposed on the support platform for raising the test specimen to an initial height after the test specimen is in the initial test attitude; and a clamping mechanism disposed on the support platform, comprising two clamping plates. When the test specimen is at the initial height, the two clamping plates can be operated to clamp the test specimen. At this time, the lifting mechanism can be lowered to the initial position, and the clamping plates can be operated to rise to the test height. After reaching the test height, the clamping plates can be operated to release the test specimen, allowing the test specimen to fall back onto the support platform under the influence of gravity. This facilitates impact testing of UAVs.
