It is used in aerial photography, agriculture, plant protection, micro selfies, express delivery, disaster relief, wildlife observation, infectious disease monitoring, surveying and mapping, news reporting, power inspection, disaster relief, film and television shooting, and many other fields.

[0003] Since coaxial drones do not require a tail rotor to provide balancing torque, they are smaller in size than single-rotor helicopters. Compared with multi-rotor aircraft, in addition to their small size, they also have higher energy utilization rates, and occupy an important position in aerial photography, aerial surveillance and other fields.

[0004] When storing traditional coaxial drones, they are usually placed neatly on the ground or on a workbench. This will cause the coaxial drones to require a large amount of storage space. At the same time, the release process requires workers to pick up the coaxial drones and intervene in the release, which makes the release process of the coaxial drones more complicated and needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a coaxial drone hangar that is convenient for storage.

[0006] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions: a coaxial drone hangar, comprising:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a hangar for a coaxial UAV includes a support base 1, a partition 2, a base 3 and a clamping mechanism 4. The support base 1 is vertically arranged on the ground, and the partition 2 is arranged in a staggered manner in the support base 1, and divides the support base 1 into a plurality of storage spaces 21 for storing coaxial UAVs.

[0025] Therefore, when storing coaxial drones, the coaxial drones can be placed vertically in each storage space 21 to achieve independent storage of the coaxial drones. Therefore, by setting up a hangar capable of three-dimensional storage, the storage of coaxial drones is expanded from a plane to a three-dimensional space, saving storage space and solving the problem of large storage space requirements for coaxial drones.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the base 3 is horizontally arranged on the lower end side wall of the support base 1, and the clamping mechanism 4 is arranged on the base 3 and is used to clamp the coaxial drone.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the clamping mechanism 4 includes a slider 41, a sliding rod 42 and a manipulator 43. A main slide 31 and a sub-slide 32 are provided on the base 3. The main slide 31 is arranged along the length direction of the base 3, and the sub-slide 32 is arranged at intervals and horizontally, and is connected to the main slide 31, and is aligned with each column of storage space 21.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the sliding rod 42 is vertically arranged on the sliding block 41 , and the manipulator 43 is vertically slidably connected to the sliding rod 42 .

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the manipulator 43 includes a connecting seat 44, a mounting seat 45, a pair of chucks 46, a pair of connecting rods 47 and a pair of gears 48. The connecting seat 44 is vertically slidably connected to the sliding rod 42, the mounting seat 45 is horizontally arranged on the connecting seat 44, the pair of chucks 46 are arranged parallel to each other in front of the mounting seat 45, and the front inner wall of the chuck 46 is provided with a serrated clamping block 461 to increase the friction force of the chuck 46 when clamping to ensure stable clamping.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a pair of connecting rods 47 are disposed at the rear end of the clamp 46 and are bent in a direction away from each other. A pair of gears 48 are rotatably connected to the front end of the mounting seat 45 and mesh with each other, and each gear 48 is provided with a linkage rod 481 rotatably connected to the rear end of the connecting rod 47.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a pair of pull rods 451 are provided at the front end of the mounting seat 45, one end of the pair of pull rods 451 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 45, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front end of the connecting rod 47. The rear end of the mounting seat 45 is rotatably connected to a driving wheel 49, which is meshed with one of the gears 48.

[0032] When the coaxial drone needs to be launched, the slider 41 is controlled to slide in the main slide 31 or the sub-slide 32, and then the driving wheel 49 is controlled to rotate. At this time, the driving wheel 49 drives the gear 48 meshing with it to rotate, so that the pair of gears 48 rotate relative to each other. At the same time, under the cooperation of the connecting rod 47, the linkage rod 481 and the pull rod 451, the pair of clamps 46 will be driven to approach each other and clamp the coaxial drone.

[0033] Then the slider 41 is controlled to retract, the coaxial UAV is remotely controlled to take off, and then the clamp 46 is released to automatically release the UAV. During the release process, no human intervention is required, and the coaxial UAV can be automatically and conveniently released.

[0034] The storage process of coaxial drones is the opposite and will not be elaborated on here.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the base 3 is provided with a QR code mark 33 for identification by the camera below the coaxial drone, and the base 3 is provided with a connecting groove 34 connected to the main slide groove 31 and extending to the front of the QR code mark 33, and the connecting groove 34 is provided for the slider 41 to slide and embed.

[0036] Therefore, by setting the QR code identification 33, after the coaxial drone flies above the predetermined airspace, it can recognize the QR code and land accurately. After landing, the clamping mechanism 4 slides along the direction of the connecting groove 34 and slides to the front of the coaxial drone, thereby clamping the coaxial drone and sending the drone back to the storage space 21, thereby realizing the automatic storage of the coaxial drone.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a wireless charger 22 is provided on the bottom wall of each storage space 21. Therefore, by providing a wireless charger 22 in the storage space 21 and utilizing the clamping mechanism 4 to automatically store the drone in the hangar and automatically charge it, the next round of flight can begin after charging is completed.

[0038] The specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not limitations of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications to the embodiments without any creative contribution as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by the patent law.
