Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a camera suspension device for unmanned aerial vehicle aerial photography. Background Art

[0002] When taking aerial photos, drones need to suspend their aerial cameras, usually using a cross or tripod for fixed suspension. Drone aerial images have the advantages of high clarity, large scale, small area and high timeliness, and are particularly suitable for obtaining aerial images of strip areas.

[0003] The existing camera suspension device for drone aerial photography is prone to the following problems when in use. First, the drone carries the camera through the suspension device and then performs aerial photography. However, during the aerial photography process, there is a lot of dust in the outside world that is easily attached to the camera lens, resulting in blurred footage during shooting and affecting the shooting results. Second, the camera is fixed on the suspension device, usually installed using a buckle. The buckle installation is more convenient, but the stability is poor. When the drone takes off, the camera will shake slightly, resulting in poor shooting effects. Therefore, in response to the above problems, we propose a camera suspension device for drone aerial photography. Utility Model Content
