Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thermal infrared sea temperature measurement by unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to an adjusting device for thermal infrared sea temperature measurement by unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Art

[0002] Sea surface temperature, also known as sea temperature, is the water temperature of the surface of the seawater. It is usually expressed in degrees Celsius. It depends on the heat balance of the seawater. It has obvious daily and seasonal changes. In order to facilitate measurement, a drone equipped with a thermal infrared measuring instrument is usually used.

[0003] Therefore, a regulating device for measuring sea temperature by thermal infrared of an unmanned aerial vehicle in the prior art has a publication number of CN213974508U. When in use, a thermal infrared measuring instrument and a mounting rod are fixed inside an outer frame. When the unmanned aerial vehicle drives the thermal infrared measuring instrument to measure temperature, if the device encounters an external force impact, the fixing plate, the rubber ring and the elastic plate will alleviate the external impact and adjust the stability of the thermal infrared measuring instrument, so that the thermal infrared measuring instrument can work smoothly.

[0004] However, because the thermal infrared measuring instrument is fixed on the drone, it will be affected by distance and angle during actual use. Therefore, when reducing the distance between the thermal infrared measuring instrument and the sea surface, the drone needs to lower its flight altitude. The closer the drone is to the sea surface, the more likely it is that the drone will lose control under the influence of wind, waves and sea breeze, which will lead to the loss of equipment.

[0021] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0022] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the following disclosure.

[0023] like Figure 1-4As shown, an adjustment device for measuring thermal infrared sea temperature of an unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a fixing seat 1 for installation on the unmanned aerial vehicle and a measuring seat 7 for measuring sea temperature. The measuring seat 7 measures the sea temperature by installing a thermal infrared measuring instrument on its bottom surface. A winch 2 is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 1. The winch 2 can select a known electric winch. A chain condition 8 with one end movably connected to the measuring seat 7 is wound around the winch 2. The chain condition 8 is composed of a plurality of splicing parts hinged to each other, and the splicing parts mainly include short plates 3. Long plates 10 are rotatably connected to one end of the short plates 3. Among two adjacent splicing parts, the other end of the short plate 3 in one of the splicing parts is rotatably connected to the other end of the opposite surface of the two long plates 10 in the other splicing part. The hinge of the splicing parts is utilized to realize that when the winch 2 rotates, the chain condition 8 is wound and rolled or released, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the measuring seat 7 connected to the chain condition 8, that is, ensuring that the distance between the measuring seat 7 and the sea surface is adjusted at a safe height from the sea surface, thereby ensuring the measurement result. The outer wall of one of the long boards 10 is provided with a slide groove 15 and a connecting cover 12 fixedly connected thereto. A plug-in block 13 plugged into the slide groove 15 is slidably connected to the connecting cover 12. The top and bottom edges of the connecting cover 12 are hollowed out and used to plug in the plug-in block 13 in the adjacent splicing piece. After the chain condition 8 is released to a certain length, the plug-in block 13 in the splicing piece close to the fixed seat 1 is pressed down to insert the plug-in block 13 into the connecting cover 12 of the next layer of splicing piece, and the plug-in block 13 in the next layer of splicing piece is contacted with the top edge of the plug-in block 13 in the next layer of splicing piece, thereby pushing the plug-in block 13 in the next layer of splicing piece to be inserted into the connecting cover 12 of the next layer of splicing piece. By plugging the plug-in block 13 into the next layer of connecting cover 12, the relative positions of the two adjacent layers of splicing pieces can be fixed, that is, the released part of the chain condition 8 composed of the splicing is kept in a vertical state and will not swing, thereby preventing the measuring seat 7 from swinging due to the blowing of the sea breeze.

[0024] Further discussion: A spring rod 14 whose telescopic end is connected to the surface of the plug block 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 15, and a protrusion 17 that is plugged into the side wall of the connecting cover 12 is fixedly connected to the top edge of one side of the plug block 13. When this scheme is implemented, the protrusion 17 can be driven to rise and fall by installing an electric telescopic rod on the outer wall of the connecting cover 12, that is, the protrusion 17 overcomes the elastic support of the spring rod 14 and enters the top edge of the connecting cover 12 of the next layer of splicing parts.

[0025] Further discussion: The upper surface of the fixed seat 1 is rotatably connected to a gear ring 5 fixedly connected to the capstan 2, and the upper surface of the fixed seat 1 is rotatably connected to a gear 6 meshing with the gear ring 5. Specifically, the gear 6 on the fixed seat 1 can be driven to rotate by installing a motor on the fixed seat 1, so that the meshing gear ring 5 drives the capstan 2 to rotate, and the chain link 8 drives the measuring seat 7 to rotate. Combined with the swing angle adjustment of the measuring seat 7, a wider measuring angle of the measuring seat 7 can be achieved.

[0026] Further discussion: Electric push rods 4 are fixedly connected to the inner walls on both sides of the winch 2. The two electric push rods 4 are symmetrically distributed, and the telescopic ends of the electric push rods 4 are fixedly connected to damping blocks 9 for clamping the sides of the splicing parts. The electric push rods 4 on the winch 2 are extended to achieve the damping blocks 9 to clamp the two sides of the splicing parts, so that the straightened chain condition 8 part will not shake.

[0027] Further discussion: A bolt 11 is provided between the measuring seat 7 and the splicing piece, and an electric push rod 4 is also fixedly connected to the side of the measuring seat 7. The electric push rod 4 on the measuring seat 7 is used to fix the position of the measuring seat 7. The measuring seat 7 and the chain condition 8 are movably connected by the bolt 11 to achieve the angle adjustment of the measuring seat 7. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 4 on the measuring seat 7 is also installed with a damping block 9. The electric push rod 4 on the measuring seat 7 is extended to achieve the damping block 9 against the side of the splicing piece, so that the angle of the measuring seat 7 can be fixed.

[0028] Further discussion: The bottom surface of the measuring seat 7 is also rotatably connected to the gear ring 5, and the bottom surface of the measuring seat 7 is also rotatably connected to the gear 6 meshing with the gear ring 5. The bottom surface of the gear ring 5 on the measuring seat 7 is fixedly connected to a counterweight 16 away from the gear 6. The purpose of this scheme is to adjust the inclination angle of the measuring seat 7. As shown in the figure, a motor is also installed on the measuring seat 7. The motor drives the gear 6 on the measuring seat 7 to rotate, so that the meshing gear ring 5 drives the counterweight 16 to move, adjust the position of the counterweight 16, and then adjust the weight distribution and center of gravity distribution of the measuring seat 7, that is, to adjust the inclination angle of the measuring seat 7.

[0029] Working principle: the fixing seat 1 is installed on the drone, the drone drives the fixing seat 1 to move to the sea surface, and the drone maintains a safe flight altitude. The winch 2 rotates to release the chain condition 8. After the measuring seat 7 is lowered to the optimal measuring altitude, the protrusion 17 on the released part of the chain condition 8 descends and drives the plug 13 to be inserted into the connecting cover 12 in the next layer of splicing parts, that is, the released part of the chain condition 8 is in a stretched state, and then the electric push rod 4 on the winch 2 is extended to realize the damping block 9 clamping the two sides of the splicing parts, so that the stretched part of the chain condition 8 will not shake, and the measuring seat 7 is used to measure the sea temperature.

[0030] The wiring diagram of the winch 2, the electric push rod 4, the measuring seat 7, the electric telescopic rod and the motor in the utility model belongs to the common knowledge in the field, and its working principle is a well-known technology. The model is selected according to the actual use. Therefore, the control method and wiring arrangement of the winch 2, the electric push rod 4, the measuring seat 7, the electric telescopic rod and the motor are no longer explained in detail.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes and apply it to other fields. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention still falls within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
