[0002] As an important sign of water transportation, bridge and culvert markers are crucial to ensure the safe navigation of ships. Traditional inspection and maintenance of bridge and culvert markers rely on manual on-site operations, which not only poses a high safety risk, such as the need to close the road and apply for approval when performing maintenance on high-speed bridges, but also has low work efficiency and high costs. In order to solve these problems, intelligent inspection devices have emerged, especially the off-site visual perception intelligent inspection system combined with drone technology, which greatly improves the efficiency and safety of inspections.
[0003] The existing off-site visual perception intelligent inspection devices for bridge and culvert signs usually include drones, inspection meters, short-range wireless detection modules implanted in bridge and culvert signs, and drone inspection center equipment. Among them, the inspection meter is fixed on the drone through a specially designed inspection meter mounting plate. However, this design has certain limitations: the size of the inspection meter that can be placed on the inspection meter mounting plate is relatively fixed. Once inspection meters of different models or sizes need to be used, it is difficult to firmly and reliably fix them on the drone through the original mounting plate, resulting in insufficient equipment compatibility and versatility.
[0004] In view of the above problems, it is necessary to develop a new type of UAV navigation mark inspection device so that inspection instruments of different sizes can be firmly and reliably fixed on the UAV, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0030] The following will be combined with the attached embodiment of the present utility model Figure 1-8 , clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0031] Example:
[0032] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the utility model discloses a novel unmanned aerial vehicle navigation mark inspection device, including an unmanned aerial vehicle 1, an inspection instrument 2 and an inspection instrument mounting plate 3, a strap 4 is provided on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3, the strap 4 fixes the inspection instrument 2 on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 in the left and right directions, and limit baffles 5 are slidably arranged on both sides of the front and rear of the upper end face of the unmanned aerial vehicle 1, and a plurality of sockets 31 are penetrated on both sides of the front and rear of the inspection instrument mounting plate 3, the sockets 31 are used for the limit baffles 5 to pass through, and fixing belts 6 are connected to the limit baffles 5 on both sides of the front and rear of the unmanned aerial vehicle 1, and the two fixing belts 6 are fixed to each other and tightened on the inspection instrument 2. It should be noted here that the two fixing belts 6 can be fixed by Velcro or a plurality of four-button settings or any other existing connection method that can be disassembled and firmly fixed.
[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, a slide groove 11 is provided on both the front and rear sides of the upper end face of the drone 1, and a slider 51 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the limit baffle 5, and the slider 51 is slidably set in the slide groove 11. The design of the slide groove 11 and the slider 51 allows the limit baffle 5 to flexibly adjust its position to adapt to inspection instruments 2 of different sizes, thereby increasing the adaptability of the device.
[0034] Furthermore, a belt hole 52 is provided on the limit baffle 5, and one end of the fixing belt 6 passes through the belt hole 52 and is sewn to itself.
[0035] In addition, avoidance slots 53 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the limit baffle 5 at the position of the through-hole 52. The setting of the avoidance slots 53 enables the limit baffle 5 with the fixing belt 6 to pass through the socket 31 of the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 more easily without being stuck.
[0036] In this embodiment, four sockets 31 are provided on the front and rear sides of the inspection instrument mounting plate 3. The four sockets 31 provide more options, so that the limit baffle 5 can be accurately adjusted according to the specific size of the inspection instrument 2, further improving the versatility of the device.
[0037] The specific structure of the strap 4 which is arranged on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 and fixes the inspection instrument 2 is as follows: an inverted L-shaped positioning plate 32 is integrally formed on both sides of the inspection instrument mounting plate 3, and a hole 33 is opened on the positioning plate 32, and the left and right ends of the strap 4 respectively pass through the holes 33 of the two positioning plates 32 and are wrapped around the upper side of the inspection instrument 2 for fixation. Similarly, the left and right ends of the strap 4 can also be fixed by Velcro or multiple four-button settings or any other existing connection method that can be disassembled and firmly fixed.
[0038] The utility model fixes the inspection instrument 2 on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 by means of the binding strap 4 and the fixing strap 6 in a cross shape, thereby providing a multi-dimensional restraining force, significantly enhancing the stability of the inspection instrument 2, and ensuring that it can remain stable even in complex environments.
[0039] It should also be noted that, if necessary, the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 can be detachably fixed to the drone 1 by screws, but it will be more complicated to disassemble the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 in this way.
[0040] When the utility model is in use, the operator passes the strap 4 through the hole 33 of the positioning plate 32 from the left and right sides of the inspection instrument mounting plate 3, and goes around the upper side of the inspection instrument 2 for preliminary fixation, and then adjusts the position of the limit baffle 5 on the drone 1 according to the size of the inspection instrument 2. The limit baffle 5 slides in the slide groove 11 through the slider 51 until it reaches the appropriate position. Then, the limit baffle 5 passes through the socket 31 on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3 to ensure that the limit baffle 5 is in the appropriate position on the front and back sides of the inspection instrument 2. Next, the operator fixes the two fixing belts 6 to each other and tightens them on the inspection instrument 2 by means of Velcro or snaps, forming a cross-fixing structure to ensure that the inspection instrument 2 is firmly fixed on the inspection instrument mounting plate 3.
[0041] It is also necessary to explain that when the device inspects the bridge culvert, the drone 1 carries the inspection instrument 2 and flies to the area where the bridge culvert is located according to the preset route. During the flight, the camera 12 on the drone 1 captures the images along the way in real time and transmits them back to the ground monitoring end through the wireless transmission system. When approaching the bridge culvert, the short-range communication module in the inspection instrument 2 establishes a communication connection with the short-range wireless detection module in the bridge culvert through the short-range inspection antenna, sends instructions to the bridge culvert, puts it into working state and collects its own status data, such as lamp brightness, flashing frequency, etc., and these data are transmitted back to the inspection instrument 2.
[0042] After receiving the bridge and culvert mark data, the inspection instrument 2 uses the local data storage module for temporary storage and backup, and sends the data to the inspection center equipment of the drone 1 through the point-to-point long-distance communication module and the data transmission antenna 21. The point-to-point data transmission receiving module in the inspection center equipment of the drone 1 receives the data, and combines its own software algorithm to analyze and organize the data in real time, generate a visual inspection report, present the current operating status of the bridge and culvert mark, and determine whether there is a potential fault.
[0043] After completing the inspection mission, the drone returns to the ground, and the operator removes the inspection instrument and performs maintenance on the inspection instrument and drone based on the inspection situation, such as charging the inspection instrument, checking the wear of drone components, etc., to prepare for the next inspection mission.
[0044] It should also be pointed out that the terms used in the present invention, such as "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only used to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
