Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle landing gears, in particular to a shockproof landing gear for unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Art
[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicle, referred to as "drone", is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and self-contained program control devices, or operated completely or intermittently autonomously by an on-board computer. Existing drones usually need to be equipped with cameras, scanners, detectors and other precision equipment to work, and the landing gear is the cushioning device when the drone comes into contact with the ground during landing.
[0003] After searching, the existing Chinese patent with application number CN202320256865.9 discloses a UAV landing gear, which plays a buffering role through the deformation force of the support rod in contact with the ground. At the same time, the support rod drives the mounting block to move through the constraint block to slide inside the constraint groove, so that the movable rod slides inside the mounting groove, and plays a buffering role by squeezing the deformation of the connecting tube. The synchronous connecting rod squeezes the damping device to play a damping role. In this way, the situation where the UAV contacts the ground without buffering and causes the precision equipment to malfunction may be avoided.
[0004] The above technical solution has the following defects: although such a shockproof landing gear structure of a UAV can contact the ground through the support rod to play a buffering role with its own deformation force and damping device, it is inconvenient to quickly disassemble and assemble at the bottom of the UAV during actual use, and it is relatively inconvenient when packing the UAV. Moreover, such a flat UAV landing gear is easy to slide and topple over when forced to land on uneven or inclined ground, causing damage. For this reason, a shockproof landing gear of a UAV is proposed, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly at the bottom of the UAV, thereby facilitating storage and packing for movement, and further improving the gripping ability, so that the UAV can land more stably on uneven ground.
[0005] In view of this, the author improves and solves the above problems, concentrates on research and cooperates with theoretical application, and finally proposes a technical solution with reasonable design and effective improvement of the above defects.
[0006] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to deepen the understanding of the overall background technology of the present invention, and should not be regarded as acknowledging or suggesting in any form that the information constitutes the prior art already known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0007] The utility model provides a shockproof landing gear for a UAV, which solves the problems raised in the above background, is easy to disassemble and assemble at the bottom of the UAV, so that it is convenient to store and pack for movement, and further improves the gripping ability, so that the UAV can land more stably on uneven ground.
[0008] The solution of the utility model to solve the above technical problems is as follows: an anti-vibration landing gear for unmanned aerial vehicles, comprising a connecting frame and a landing gear body, a connecting frame is fixedly installed on the top of the landing gear body, spring damping shock absorbers are evenly fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the landing gear body, the bottom of the spring damping shock absorber is fixedly connected to a connecting base, both sides of the connecting base are evenly fixedly connected with torsion springs, the connecting base is rotatably connected with a gripping claw through the torsion spring, the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the unmanned aerial vehicle body, the inner wall of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to a brake stepping motor, both sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame are rotatably connected with a two-way lead screw, both sides of the outer walls of the two-way lead screws on both sides are threadedly connected with lead screw nuts, each side of the lead screw nut is fixedly connected to a positioning plate, the opposite sides of the positioning plates on both sides are fixedly connected with positioning blocks, and the two-way lead screw on one side is fixedly connected to the brake stepping motor.
[0009] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.
[0010] Furthermore, the width of the positioning plates on both sides is consistent with the width of the inner wall of the connecting frame, and the positioning plates slide on the inner wall of the connecting frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the bidirectional lead screws on both sides are fixedly connected with synchronous wheels, the outer walls of the synchronous wheels on both sides are provided with synchronous belts, and the synchronous wheels on both sides are connected through synchronous belt transmission.
[0012] Furthermore, a through hole is provided at the bottom of the connecting frame corresponding to the connecting frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the connection frame is provided with a positioning hole corresponding to the positioning card block.
[0014] Furthermore, the gripping claw is configured as a sickle-shaped structure.
[0015] Furthermore, limit blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame, and the inner wall of the limit block is rotatably connected to the middle position of the bidirectional lead screw through a bearing.
[0016] The utility model provides a shockproof landing gear for a UAV, which has the following advantages:
[0017] 1. Starting the brake stepper motor can drive the two-way lead screw on one side to rotate. The synchronous wheels of the two-way lead screws on both sides are connected through synchronous belt transmission, so that the two-way lead screws on both sides can rotate synchronously. The two-way lead screws on both sides can drive the positioning plates on both sides to slide in the connecting frame through the lead screw nuts. The connecting frame of the landing gear body is inserted into the connecting frame through the access hole. The positioning plates on both sides are moved to the opposite side to insert the positioning card blocks into the inner wall of the connecting frame, so that the landing gear body can be stably installed at the bottom of the connecting frame. Starting the brake stepper motor drives the positioning plates on both sides to separate so that the positioning card blocks are separated from the connecting frame, and the connecting frame and the landing gear body can be separated, so that they are easy to store separately;
[0018] 2. When the landing gear body at the bottom of the drone body falls on the ground, the gripping claw is rotatably connected to the connecting base through the torsion spring. The torsion spring can reduce vibration during the rotation process. When the drone body falls on the ground, the gripping claw can be inserted into the ground to grip the ground, thereby preventing the drone body from sliding on uneven ground. The spring damping shock absorber at the gap between the landing gear body and the connecting base can shock absorb and buffer the impact of landing, thereby providing shock absorption protection for the drone body. In addition, multiple spring damping shock absorbers are arranged on both sides of the bottom of the landing gear body, which can be more suitable for special-shaped ground.
[0019] 3. Such anti-vibration landing gear for drones is easy to disassemble and assemble at the bottom of the drone, making it easier to store and pack for movement, and further improving the gripping ability, allowing the drone to land more stably on uneven or sloping ground.
