Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, and specifically relates to a terrain surveying and mapping unmanned aerial vehicle for road and bridge construction. Background Art

[0002] Road and bridge construction is an important infrastructure construction in my country, which is related to the people's livelihood. When constructing roads and bridges, it is first necessary to use surveying and mapping equipment to conduct terrain surveying. Surveying and mapping uses relevant technologies to select existing feature points and boundaries on the ground and obtain graphics and location information reflecting the current status of the ground through measurement methods for the purpose of engineering construction, planning and design, and administrative management. In the process of surveying and mapping, since drones are widely used nowadays, the use of drones equipped with surveying and mapping equipment can carry out very flexible and effective surveying and mapping processing.

[0012] Preferably, a damper is installed between the top inner wall of the buffer groove and the top end of the support rod.

[0013] The setting of the damper can reduce the rebound force of the buffer spring when it rebounds, thereby achieving the buffering effect of the buffer spring.

[0014] Preferably, limiting grooves are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the buffer groove, limiting blocks are slidably connected to the inner walls of the limiting grooves, and the limiting blocks are fixedly connected to the support rods.
