Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] A drone, also known as an unmanned aircraft, is an aircraft that flies in the air through a remote control or autonomous control system. Drones are increasingly used in many fields, but the battery life of drones has become the biggest bottleneck hindering the development of drones. Although lithium-ion batteries are the batteries with the best overall performance on the market, they still cannot fully meet the drone battery life requirements. Therefore, the charging issue of drones must be considered during the use of drones.

[0003] There is a power receiving device for charging a drone and a drone charging system (its authorization announcement number is: CN214523367U). By setting a shield to cover the charging interface, the charging interface can be protected from rain. When charging the drone, the shield is pushed open to expose the charging interface, and the charging interface is connected to the power supply device, and then the power supply device charges the drone. There are some shortcomings in actual use: when the power supply device is connected to the charging interface to charge the drone, the shield is pushed open. Since the charging interface is set upward, when it rains, rainwater will still penetrate into the charging interface, which is easy to cause a short circuit when the drone is charged. Therefore, we propose a power receiving device for a drone to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a power receiving device for an unmanned aerial vehicle, which is used to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A power receiving device for an unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a frame, a mounting bottom sleeve and a mounting top sleeve, wherein the mounting bottom sleeve and the mounting top sleeve are sleeved on the frame, and the mounting bottom sleeve and the mounting top sleeve are connected via a plurality of fastener mechanisms, a charging interface is arranged on the top side of the mounting top sleeve, a charging connector is inserted into the charging interface, a charging wire is arranged on the charging connector, two protective covers are arranged on the top of the mounting top sleeve, sealing gaskets are arranged on the sides of the two protective covers close to each other, the two sealing gaskets are sealed and fitted on the charging wire, translation grooves are arranged on both sides of the mounting top sleeve, and a connecting mechanism for the two protective covers is arranged in the translation grooves.

[0007] Preferably, the fastener mechanism includes a bolt and a nut, one end of the bolt passes through the outside of the mounting bottom sleeve and the mounting top sleeve and is threadedly mounted with a nut, and through multiple sets of fastener mechanisms, the mounting bottom sleeve and the mounting top sleeve are fixedly sleeved and installed on the frame.

[0008] Preferably, the two protective covers on the mounting top sleeve are symmetrically arranged, and the cross-section of the protective covers is arranged in a semicircular structure, so that rainwater is shielded by the two closed protective covers.

[0009] Preferably, the sealing gasket is arranged in a semicircular structure and is made of rubber material. When the two sealing gaskets are sealed and wrapped around the charging wire, it can prevent rainwater from seeping into the charging interface when the drone is charged.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes a translation plate and a spring, two translation plates are movably installed in the translation groove, and the same spring is fixedly installed on the side where the two translation plates are close to each other. The two translation plates are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding protective covers.

[0011] Preferably, the translation slot is arranged in a convex structure, and the translation plate is adapted to the translation slot, so as to facilitate stable horizontal movement of the translation plate in the translation slot.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] The power receiving device of the drone is provided with two protective covers that can be adjusted in horizontal position on the top of the mounting top cover. When the two protective covers are closed together, the two sealing gaskets on the two protective covers are sealed and wrapped around the charging wires, thereby preventing rainwater from seeping into the charging interface when charging the drone, so that short circuit will not occur when charging the drone on rainy days, ensuring normal charging of the drone.

The two sealing gaskets 10 are sealed and fitted on the charging wire 8. Translation grooves 11 are provided on both sides of the installation top cover 3. A connecting mechanism for the two protective covers 9 is provided in the translation groove 11. The connecting mechanism includes a translation plate 12 and a spring 13. Two translation plates 12 are movably installed in the translation groove 11. The same spring 13 is fixedly installed on the side where the two translation plates 12 are close to each other. The two translation plates 12 are respectively fixedly connected with the corresponding protective covers 9. When the two protective covers 9 are released, the two protective covers 9 are restored to their original positions under the elastic force of the two springs 13.

[0021] Furthermore, the two protective covers 9 on the mounting top cover 3 are symmetrically arranged, and the cross-section of the protective covers 9 is arranged in a semicircular structure, so that rainwater is shielded by the two closed protective covers 9.

[0022] Furthermore, the sealing gasket 10 is arranged in a semicircular structure and is made of rubber material. When the two sealing gaskets 10 are sealed and wrapped around the charging wire 8, it can prevent rainwater from seeping into the charging interface 6 when the drone is charged.
