[0021] The adjusting mechanism 3 includes a side plate 301, a lower ring seat 302, an arm base 303, a mechanical power arm 304 and a pneumatic clamp 305. The side plates 301 are arranged on both sides of the bearing component 1. The lower ring seat 302 is arranged on the lower side of the side plate 301, the arm base 303 is arranged on the upper side of the side plate 301, and a mechanical power arm 304 is arranged at one end of the arm base 303, and a pneumatic clamp 305 is arranged at the output end of the mechanical power arm 304.

[0022] The lower ring seat 302 has a ring structure, and the mechanical power arm 304 has a hinge transmission structure.

[0023] In this embodiment, the drone is then operated to effectively descend. When the drone falls to a suitable height, the arm base 303 and the mechanical power arm 304 are used to clamp the drone at one end of the pneumatic clamp 305 after hinge adjustment. After clamping the drone, the drone is placed on the lifting base 406.

[0024] The bearing component 1 includes a cushion block 101, a shell 102, a plug-in slot 103, a locking pneumatic pin 104, a control panel 105 and an inner cushion 106. The top side of the cushion block 101 is provided with a shell 102 for installing the control panel 105, the upper side of the shell 102 is provided with a plug-in slot 103 for installing the output end of the locking pneumatic pin 104, and the inner side of the shell 102 is provided with an inner cushion 106.

[0025] In this embodiment, when in use, the device is placed at the processing site through the pad 101. After the device is placed at the processing site, the shell 102 can be effectively controlled and operated through the control panel 105. When it is necessary to collect the drone, the locking pneumatic pin 104 is opened to output power to drive the output end to perform telescopic operation to unlock the cover 203 on the inner side of the plug-in slot 103.

[0026] The opening and closing assembly 2 includes a hydraulic telescopic frame 201, a hinge strip 202, a cover plate 203, a side handle 204, a flexible pad 205 and a hanging chain 206. The hydraulic telescopic frame 201 is arranged at both ends of the side of the shell 102. The output end of the hydraulic telescopic frame 201 is hingedly connected to the cover plate 203 through the hinge strip 202. The outer side of the cover plate 203 is provided with a side handle 204, the inner bottom side of the cover plate 203 is provided with a flexible pad 205, and the top side of the cover plate 203 is provided with a hanging chain 206.

[0027] In this embodiment, after the cover 203 is unlocked, the hydraulic telescopic frame 201 is used to output power to drive the output end to telescope. After the hydraulic telescopic frame 201 outputs power, the cover 203 moves to a suitable height. After the cover 203 moves to a suitable height, the arm base 303, the mechanical power arm 304 and the pneumatic clamp 305 are used to perform output transmission and then the cover 203 is flipped in conjunction with the hinge strip 202 and the side handle 204.

[0028] The lifting and positioning mechanism 4 includes a motor base 401, a driving motor 402, a meshing gear group 403, a screw group 404, a lifting block 405, a lifting base plate 406, a cylinder 407, a fixed plug plate 408, a binding base 409 and an auxiliary rope 4010. The motor base 401 is arranged on the lower side of the side plate 301, and a driving motor 402 is arranged on one side of the motor base 401. The output end of the driving motor 402 is provided with a meshing gear group 403, and the output end of the meshing gear group 403 is provided with a screw group 404, and the screw group 404 is threadedly connected to the lifting block 405.

[0029] In this embodiment, when shutdown is required, the drive motor 402 is used to output power to drive the output end, so that after the meshing gear set 403 performs meshing transmission operation, the screw set 404 spirally rotates and then drives the lifting block 405 to lift the lifting base plate 406 to the target height.

[0030] A lifting base plate 406 assembled with bolts is provided on the inner side of the lifting block 405, and a cylinder 407 is provided on the inner side of the lifting base plate 406. A fixed plug plate 408 is provided at the output end of the cylinder 407. A binding base 409 is provided at the inner groove of the lifting block 405, and an auxiliary rope 4010 is provided above the binding base 409.

[0031] In this embodiment, after the UAV is placed on the lifting base plate 406, the cylinder 407 is used to output power to drive the output end to extend and retract, and then the fixed plug plate 408 is fixed to the landing gear of the UAV. Then, the drive motor 402 is used to output power to drive the output end. In this way, after the meshing gear group 403 is meshed and transmitted, the screw group 404 is spirally rotated to drive the lifting block 405 to lower the lifting base plate 406 into the shell 102, and then the equipment is closed for the user to store.

[0032] The working principle of the tethering box for tethering the drone is as follows: when in use, the device is placed at the processing site through the cushion block 101. After the device is placed at the processing site, the housing 102 is effectively controlled and operated through the control panel 105. When it is necessary to collect the drone, the locking pneumatic pin 104 is opened to output power to drive the output end to telescope and unlock the cover 203 on the inner side of the plug-in slot 103. After the cover 203 is unlocked, the hydraulic telescopic frame 201 is used to output power to drive the output end to telescope. After the hydraulic telescopic frame 201 outputs power, the cover 203 is moved to a suitable height. After the cover 203 moves to a suitable height, the arm base 303, the mechanical power arm 304 and the pneumatic clamp 305 are used to output transmission, and the cover 203 is turned over in conjunction with the hinge strip 202 and the side handle 204. When it is necessary to stop, the drive motor 402 is used to output power to drive the output end. After the meshing gear set 403 is meshed and driven, the screw rod set 404 is spirally rotated to drive the lifting block 405 to lift the lifting base plate 406 to the target height, and then the drone is operated to effectively descend. When the drone falls to a suitable height, the arm base 303 and the mechanical power arm 304 are used to clamp the drone at one end of the pneumatic clamp 305 after hinge adjustment. After clamping the drone, the drone is placed on the lifting base plate 406. After the drone is placed on the lifting base plate 406, the cylinder 407 is used to output power to drive the output end for telescopic operation, and then the fixed plug plate 408 is fixed to the landing gear of the drone. Then the drive motor 402 is used to output power to drive the output end. After the meshing gear set 403 is meshed and driven, the screw rod set 404 is spirally rotated to drive the lifting block 405 to lower the lifting base plate 406 into the shell 102, and then the equipment is closed for user storage.
