Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). More specifically, this invention relates to a smart airport for UAVs that can be mounted on various pickup trucks. Background Technology
[0002] In existing technologies, to improve the efficiency of fire rescue and forestry patrols, dedicated drone airports are often installed on the roofs of pickup trucks to enable rapid take-off, landing, and deployment of drones. However, when a pickup truck needs to immediately take off a drone while in motion, it faces significant technical challenges: the strong airflow generated by the high-speed movement of the vehicle can cause considerable disturbance to the drone in the initial launch phase. Because the drone's lift has not yet been fully established and its attitude control is unstable in the early stages of takeoff, encountering excessively strong headwinds can easily lead to flight attitude imbalance, resulting in unstable take-off. In severe cases, this can even cause take-off failure or equipment damage, affecting the timely execution of emergency missions. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the drawback that the strong airflow generated by high-speed vehicle movement can cause significant disturbance to drones in the initial stage of takeoff, leading to unstable takeoff, this invention provides a smart airport for drones that can be loaded onto various pickup trucks.
[0004] Technical Solution: A smart airport for drones suitable for loading on various pickup trucks, comprising a housing and several electric suction cups mounted on the housing; also comprising motors, a round rod, a connecting block, a cover plate, and a fixing assembly; several motors are fixedly connected to the housing; a round rod is rotatably connected to the housing, and the round rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor; a connecting block is fixedly connected to the round rod, and the connecting block contacts the housing; a cover plate is connected to the connecting block, and the cover plate contacts the housing; a fixing assembly is connected to the housing; the fixing assembly is used to fix the drone.
[0005] To further explain, the fixing component includes an electric push rod and a fixing block; several electric push rods are fixedly connected to the box body; each electric push rod has a fixing block fixedly connected to its telescopic end, and the fixing block is slidably connected to the box body; several fixing slots are provided on the box body.
[0006] To further explain, it also includes a flow guide block; the flow guide block is fixedly attached to the box body.
[0007] Further explanation: It also includes auxiliary components, which include slider one, electric push rod two, and slider two; the cover plate is composed of movable part one and movable part two, which are rotatably connected; a slider one is fixedly connected to movable part one; a slider one is also fixedly connected to movable part two; slider one is slidably connected to connecting block; several electric push rods two are fixedly connected to connecting block; each electric push rod two has a slider two fixedly connected to its telescopic end, and slider two is slidably connected to the corresponding slider one.
[0008] To further explain, it also includes a square frame; the square frame is fixed inside the box and contacts the cover plate; a groove is formed between the square frame and the box; several through holes are opened on the box and the through holes communicate with the groove.
[0009] Further explanation: It also includes a V-shaped plate; the V-shaped plate is fixedly attached to the cover plate, and the V-shaped plate is located at the junction of movable part one and movable part two; the V-shaped plate is elastic.
[0010] To further explain, the contact surfaces of the connecting block and the slider are both set to smooth surfaces.
[0011] To further explain, the contact surfaces of both slider one and slider two are set to be smooth surfaces.
[0012] To further clarify, a charging module is installed inside the box.
[0013] To further explain, the electric suction cup is equipped with a negative pressure sensor.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: First, the cover plate used to store the drone can also be used to block the airflow, so that a low-pressure leeward area is formed on the left side of the cover plate, which greatly reduces the airflow resistance encountered by the drone in the initial stage of takeoff, so that the drone can take off stably. 2. The cover plate is divided into movable part one and movable part two. Under normal conditions, movable part one and movable part two are arranged in a plane to store and protect the drone. When the drone takes off, movable part one and movable part two are arranged in a V-shape to guide the air obliquely outward, thereby reducing the air resistance on the cover plate, thereby reducing the torque on the motor, avoiding motor damage, and improving stability. Third, the frame intercepts the infiltrating rainwater, allowing it to be collected in the groove and then discharged through the through hole, preventing rainwater from flowing into the box and affecting the storage of the drone. When the cover is in a horizontal state, the frame also serves to support the cover. Fourth, the V-shaped plate intercepts airflow, preventing it from passing through the gap between movable part one and movable part two, thus avoiding interference with drone takeoff. In rainy weather, the V-shaped plate intercepts rainwater, preventing it from flowing into the inside of the box through the gap between movable part one and movable part two, thus avoiding affecting drone storage.

Any numerical designations such as "first" or "second" are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
[0018] Example 1: A smart airport for drones that can be mounted on various pickup trucks, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, it includes a box body 1 and electric suction cups 2; four electric suction cups 2 are installed on the box body 1; it also includes a motor 3, a round rod 4, a connecting block 5, a cover plate 6, and a fixing assembly; two motors 3 are bolted to the box body 1; a round rod 4 is rotatably connected to the box body 1, and the round rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 3, and the round rod 4 is made of alloy material; a connecting block 5 is fixedly connected to the round rod 4, and the connecting block 5 contacts the box body 1; a cover plate 6 is connected to the connecting block 5, and the cover plate 6 contacts the box body 1; a fixing assembly is connected to the box body 1.
[0019] The fixing assembly includes an electric push rod 101 and a fixing block 102; two electric push rods 101 are fixedly connected to the box body 1; a fixing block 102 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of each electric push rod 101, and the fixing block 102 is slidably connected to the box body 1; two fixing grooves 90 are opened on the box body 1.
[0020] It also includes a flow guide block 201; the flow guide block 201 is bolted to the box body 1.
[0021] It also includes auxiliary components, including slider 1 202, electric push rod 203, and slider 2 204; the cover plate 6 is composed of movable part 1 91 and movable part 2 92, which are rotatably connected; a slider 1 202 is fixedly connected to movable part 1 91, and slider 1 202 is made of alloy material; a slider 1 202 is also fixedly connected to movable part 2 92; slider 1 202 is slidably connected to connecting block 5; two electric push rods 203 are fixedly connected to connecting block 5; each electric push rod 203 has a slider 2 204 fixedly connected to its telescopic end, and slider 204 is slidably connected to the corresponding slider 1 202.
[0022] It also includes a square frame 205; the square frame 205 is welded inside the box body 1, and the square frame 205 contacts the cover plate 6; a groove 93 is formed between the square frame 205 and the box body 1, through which rainwater is collected; a number of through holes 94 are opened on the box body 1, the through holes 94 are connected to the groove 93, and the collected rainwater is discharged through the through holes 94.
[0023] First, place the drone on the roof of a pickup truck, with the end of the box 1 closest to the guide block 201 facing the front of the truck. Then, use the electric suction cup 2 to firmly attach the drone to the roof of the pickup truck. The drone's support legs are located inside the fixing groove 90. The electric push rod 101 moves the fixing blocks 102, causing them to move to the upper side of the drone's support legs, thus locking the drone's support legs in the fixing groove 90 and securing the drone inside the box 1. While the pickup truck is moving, the cover 6 surrounds the drone inside the box 1, achieving a protective storage effect. When the drone needs to take off, start the motor 3, which drives the circular... Rotating rod 4 causes connecting block 5 to rotate, which in turn causes cover plate 6 to rotate and reach a vertical position, exposing the opening on box 1. Then, the drone is controlled to take off. If the pickup truck is in motion at this time, raising cover plate 6 can block the airflow, creating a low-pressure leeward area on the left side of cover plate 6. This significantly reduces the airflow resistance experienced by the drone during the initial takeoff phase, allowing for stable takeoff. In use, cover plate 6, used to store the drone, can also be used to block airflow, creating a low-pressure leeward area on the left side of cover plate 6, further reducing airflow resistance during the initial takeoff phase and enabling stable takeoff.
[0024] When the airflow is blocked by the cover plate 6, the large windward surface of the cover plate 6 results in high air resistance. This resistance is transmitted to the output shaft of the motor 3 through the cover plate 6, connecting block 5, and round rod 4, causing excessive torque on the motor 3 and posing a risk of damage. Therefore, the cover plate 6 is divided into movable part 1 91 and movable part 2 92. After the cover plate 6 is erected vertically, the electric push rod 203 drives two sliders 204 to move towards each other. Slider 204 drives two sliders 1 202 to move towards each other. Slider 1 202 drives movable parts 91 and 92 to move, causing the ends of movable parts 91 and 92 to move towards each other, thus causing movable parts 91 and 92 to flip into a V-shape, with the included angle of the V-shape facing the front of the pickup truck. During this process... Slider 1 202 adaptively rotates inside connecting block 5, and slider 2 204 adaptively rotates on slider 1 202. At this time, the air is obliquely guided outward by the V-shaped movable parts 1 91 and 2 92, thereby reducing the air resistance on cover 6, and thus reducing the torque on motor 3, preventing damage to motor 3 and improving stability. In use, cover 6 is divided into movable parts 1 91 and 2 92. Under normal conditions, movable parts 1 91 and 2 92 are distributed in a planar manner to store and protect the UAV. When the UAV takes off, movable parts 1 91 and 2 92 are distributed in a V-shape to obliquely guide the air outward, thereby reducing the air resistance on cover 6, and thus reducing the torque on motor 3, preventing damage to motor 3 and improving stability.
[0025] After the cover plate 6 is folded in half, the sealing performance between the cover plate 6 and the box body 1 will decrease. In rainy weather, rainwater can easily seep in through the gap between the cover plate 6 and the box body 1. Therefore, a square frame 205 is set on the inside of the box body 1 to intercept the seeping rainwater, so that the rainwater is collected in the groove 93 and then discharged from the through hole 94, preventing rainwater from flowing into the box body 1 and affecting the storage of the drone. When the cover plate 6 is in a horizontal state, the square frame 205 is also used to support the cover plate 6.
[0026] Example 2, based on Example 1, such as Figure 7 As shown, it also includes a V-shaped plate 206; the V-shaped plate 206 is fixedly attached to the cover plate 6, and the V-shaped plate 206 is located at the junction of the first movable part 91 and the second movable part 92, and the gap between the first movable part 91 and the second movable part 92 is covered by the V-shaped plate 206; the V-shaped plate 206 is elastic.
[0027] The contact surfaces of connecting block 5 and slider 202 are both set to be smooth surfaces to reduce frictional resistance.
[0028] The contact surfaces of slider 1 202 and slider 2 204 are both set to be smooth surfaces to reduce frictional resistance.
[0029] The box 1 contains a charging module for charging the drone.
[0030] The electric suction cup 2 is equipped with a negative pressure sensor to monitor the suction state of the electric suction cup 2.
[0031] When the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92) are arranged in a V-shape to guide the air obliquely outward, a small amount of air may pass through the gap between the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92), interfering with the takeoff of the drone. Therefore, a flexible V-shaped plate 206 is set between the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92). When the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92) switch to the V-shape, the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92) will drive the two ends of the V-shaped plate 206 to move, causing the V-shaped plate 206 to undergo adaptive deformation. The cross-section of the deformed V-shaped plate 206 is a streamlined V-shape. At this time, the V-shaped plate 206 intercepts the air, preventing it from passing through the gap between the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92), thus avoiding interference with the takeoff of the drone. In rainy weather, the V-shaped plate 206 intercepts rainwater, preventing rainwater from flowing into the inside of the box 1 from the gap between the movable parts 1 (91) and 2 (92), thus avoiding affecting the storage of the drone.
