Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning devices, in particular to a cleaning device for a camera of an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Aerial photography is to use unmanned aircraft as an aerial platform, and to obtain information with airborne remote sensing equipment such as high-resolution digital cameras, light optical cameras, infrared scanners, laser scanners, and magnetometers. The image information is processed by computers and made into images according to certain precision requirements. At present, the cleaning devices for drone cameras can be divided into installed and manual cleaning. The installed type is installed on the drone, and the drone camera can be cleaned during the driving process of the drone. However, the installed cleaning device is large in size, which increases the burden on the drone during driving and is only suitable for large drones. Manual cleaning requires the use of multiple tools, which is cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0003] According to patent publication number CN212752373U, a drone camera cleaning device includes a camera body, a connecting clamp is sleeved on the surface of the camera body, a connecting screw is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting clamp, a circular block is sleeved on the surface of the connecting screw, a slide groove is provided on the inner bottom wall and the inner top wall of the circular block, a sliding block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove, and a sponge cleaning block is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding block close to the camera body by bolts. However, the cleaning device uses a sponge block to clean the lens, and the sponge block has a poor cleaning effect on various stains, resulting in a long cleaning time and easy wear on the camera.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a drone camera cleaning device. Utility Model Content

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, a mounting plate is fixedly installed below the fixed frame, and a driving wheel is provided below the mounting plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0015] 1. The utility model disassembles and removes the front-view camera of the drone, puts it into the ultrasonic cleaner in the cleaning cavity, connects the connecting pipe to the power box, connects the water injection port to the external water source, and injects water into the interior. At the same time, the cleaning time of the camera can be set and adjusted by the control panel and the regulator. At the same time, the heat dissipation port discharges the heat generated inside during the cleaning process, and the upper cover is used to seal the cleaning cavity. The ultrasonic wave cavitates the internal camera to directly and indirectly disperse, emulsify and peel off the liquid and dirt to achieve the cleaning purpose, so as to more thoroughly clean the lens.

[0016] 2. When the camera of the drone is less contaminated, the utility model can pull the cleaning air gun out from the inside of the connecting coil, and the high-pressure gas of the air compressor inside the dry ice cleaning box transfers the dry ice to the cleaning air gun, so that the cleaning air gun sprays the dry ice to the camera that needs to be cleaned, and cleans the dirt. Since the dry ice medium is relatively soft and non-abrasive, the camera will not be worn during the cleaning process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] A drone camera cleaning device comprises a drone camera cleaning device body 1, a cleaning component 2 is installed on the right side of the drone camera cleaning device body 1, a connecting pipe 21 is fixedly installed at the input end of the cleaning component 2, a power box 27 is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting pipe 21, a control board 24 is installed at the front end of the power box 27, a regulator 25 is installed below the control board 24, a heat dissipation port 26 is opened on the left side of the regulator 25, an ultrasonic cleaner 23 is opened on the inner side of the cleaning component 2, a cleaning cavity 22 is installed below the ultrasonic cleaner 23, and a protective component 3 is installed on the outer side of the cleaning cavity 22.

[0026] It should be added that the front-view camera of the drone is disassembled and removed, placed in the ultrasonic cleaner 23 in the cleaning cavity 22, the connecting pipe 21 is connected to the power box 27, and the water inlet 16 is connected to the external water source to inject water into the interior. At the same time, the cleaning time of the camera can be set and adjusted by the control board 24 and the regulator 25. At the same time, the heat dissipation port 26 discharges the heat generated inside during the cleaning process, and the upper cover is used to seal the cleaning cavity 22. The ultrasonic wave cavitates the internal camera to directly and indirectly disperse, emulsify and peel off the liquid and dirt to achieve the cleaning purpose, so as to more thoroughly clean the lens.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a dry ice cleaning box 35 is fixedly installed at the front end of the protective component 3, a starter 31 is installed on the upper right side of the dry ice cleaning box 35, an air outlet 32 ​​is opened on the left side of the starter 31, a connecting coil 34 is installed on the left side of the air outlet 32, a cleaning air gun 33 is installed inside the connecting coil 34, a cleaning frame 14 is installed at the front end of the protective component 3, a fixed base 12 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the cleaning frame 14, and a fixed frame 15 is opened on the outer side of the fixed base 12.

[0028] It is worth noting that when the camera of the drone is less contaminated, the cleaning air gun 33 can be pulled out from the inside of the connecting coil 34, and the dry ice can be transferred to the cleaning air gun 33 by the high-pressure gas of the air compressor inside the dry ice cleaning box 35, so that the cleaning air gun 33 sprays the dry ice to the camera that needs to be cleaned, and cleans the dirt. Since the dry ice medium is relatively soft and non-abrasive, the camera will not be worn during the cleaning process. The internal compressor adopts the ZLS100-2iC specification.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a support frame 11 is fixedly installed above the fixed frame 15, a protective door 13 is installed at the front end of the support frame 11, an observation groove 19 is opened on the rear side of the protective door 13, a water injection port 16 is installed above the fixed frame 15, a mounting plate 17 is fixedly installed below the fixed frame 15, and a driving wheel 18 is opened below the mounting plate 17.

[0030] During specific use, the fixed frame 15 is made of SUS306 material to enhance the stability of its support, and the upper part of the fixed frame 15 is welded to the fixed base 12 for locking.

[0031] When using the drone camera cleaning device of the utility model, firstly, the front-view camera of the drone is disassembled and removed, and the camera is placed in the ultrasonic cleaner 23 of the cleaning inner cavity 22, and the connecting pipe 21 is connected to the power box 27, and the water injection port 16 is connected to the external water source to inject water into the interior. At the same time, the cleaning time of the camera can be set and adjusted by the control board 24 and the regulator 25. At the same time, the heat dissipation port 26 discharges the heat generated inside the camera during the cleaning process, and the upper cover is sealed to the cleaning inner cavity 22, and the ultrasonic wave cleans the internal camera. The cavitation effect directly and indirectly disperses, emulsifies and peels off the dirt layer on the liquid and dirt to achieve the cleaning purpose, so as to facilitate more thorough cleaning of the lens. When the degree of contamination of the drone camera is low, the cleaning air gun 33 can be pulled out from the inside of the connecting coil 34, and the high-pressure gas of the air compressor inside the dry ice cleaning box 35 transfers the dry ice to the cleaning air gun 33, so that the cleaning air gun 33 sprays the dry ice to the camera that needs to be cleaned and cleans the dirt. Since the dry ice medium is relatively soft and non-abrasive, the camera will not be worn during the cleaning process.
