Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle pod components, in particular to a component structure of an unmanned aerial vehicle pod. Background Art
[0002] A pod is a device installed with onboard equipment, electronic equipment, etc., and hung on the belly or under the wing of a drone. The electronic pod of a drone can decouple the drone and electronic equipment payloads in its physical structure, making them optional or optional, greatly improving the flexibility of the drone payload. At the same time, when the drone pod is assembled, a mainboard will be installed inside the drone pod. The mainboard can control the device for system control, thereby achieving normal operation of the equipment.
[0003] In the component structure of the drone pod, it is necessary to install a mainboard inside the pod. With the development of the times, the functions of the drone also need to be upgraded, and the mainboard needs to be replaced simultaneously when the drone is upgraded. However, due to the different models of the mainboard, the structure and components need to be replaced simultaneously when the drone in the pod is upgraded. However, when designing the drone, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the overall structure of the drone and save the use space, and try to save the component installation space. As a result, the adjustable position of the mainboard is relatively limited. During the upgrade of the mainboard, due to the mismatch of the model, the newly added structure cannot be placed inside the compact structure, which in turn affects the upgrade and maintenance of the mainboard. For this reason, we propose a component structure for a drone pod. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the component structure of the existing UAV pod, the utility model provides a component structure of the UAV pod, which has a mainboard arranged between the upper shell and the lower shell. When replacing the mainboard, the mainboard can be replaced by disassembling the lower shell, and the mainboard is limited by a first heat conduction pad and a second heat conduction pad, that is, there is a space between the upper shell and the lower shell, which also enables the pod to adapt to different mission requirements and achieve rapid modification and upgrading. By adopting advanced integration technology, we compactly install various key components inside the pod, achieve the advantages of high integration, and solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0005] The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a component structure of a drone pod, comprising an upper shell, a positioning groove is provided on the outside of the lower end of the upper shell, a first positioning hole is provided on the side of the upper shell, a lower shell is installed inside the lower end of the upper shell, a second positioning hole is provided on the outside of the lower shell, a first heat conduction pad is fixedly connected to the inner side of the lower shell, a mainboard is placed on the upper part of the first heat conduction pad, a pressure block is installed inside one side of the lower shell, a second heat conduction pad and a mainboard positioning column are installed inside the upper shell, a heat absorbing plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the upper shell, a third slide groove is provided on the outside of the upper shell, and a cover plate is installed inside one end of the upper shell.
[0006] Preferably, the upper shell is mounted on the pod, and a fastening bolt is installed inside the first positioning hole, and the positioning groove is fitted on the outside of the pod.
[0007] Preferably, the heat absorbing plates are arranged at equal intervals outside the upper shell, and the upper shell and the lower shell are made of metal structures.
[0008] Preferably, the mainboard is clamped between the second heat conduction pad and the first heat conduction pad installed inside the lower shell, and the mainboard positioning column passes through the inside of the mainboard.
[0009] Preferably, a heat dissipation fin and a connector connection hole are provided at the lower portion of the lower shell, and the connector connection hole is communicated with the interior of the upper shell.
[0010] Preferably, a connector is installed at the lower end of the connector connection hole, a connector is installed on the inner side of the upper end of the pressing block, and the cover plate is arranged outside the pressing block.
[0011] Compared with the component structure of the existing drone pod, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. The component structure of the UAV pod is divided into multiple independent module areas through the interior of the pod, and each module has specific functions and performances, that is, the mainboard is arranged between the upper shell and the lower shell, and the position of the mainboard is limited by the upper shell and the lower shell. When upgrading the mainboard, the mainboard can be upgraded at the same time after removing the upper shell, and there is enough space inside the upper shell and the lower shell, that is, when upgrading the mainboard, the space generated by the upgrade does not interfere with the overall structure of the pod. Therefore, this design not only improves the flexibility and maintainability of the system, but also enables the pod to adapt to different mission requirements and achieve rapid modification and upgrading.
[0013] 2. The component structure of the drone pod is affixed to the outside of the mainboard through the second heat conduction pad and the first heat conduction pad installed on the inner sides of the upper shell and the lower shell. The second heat conduction pad and the first heat conduction pad absorb the heat generated by the mainboard and transmit it by means of thermal radiation. After the heat is transmitted to the inside of the heat absorbing plate, the external fan is started, and the fan drives the gas circulation to dissipate the heat of the heat absorbing plate. The gas is transmitted to the surface of the lower shell, that is, through the gas circulation, heat transmission and thermal radiation, the heat dissipation of the equipment can be improved, and the damage to the mainboard caused by high temperature can be avoided.

Based on the embodiments in 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.
[0023] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 A component structure of a drone pod includes an upper shell 1, a positioning groove 2 is provided on the outside of the lower end of the upper shell 1, and the positioning groove 2 is used for positioning when the upper shell 1 is in contact with the pod for installation. A first positioning hole 3 is provided on the side of the upper shell 1, and the first positioning hole 3 drives the device to be installed on the drone pod. A lower shell 4 is installed inside the lower end of the upper shell 1, and a second positioning hole 5 is provided on the outside of the lower shell 4. The second positioning hole 5 drives the position between the lower shell 4 and the upper shell 1 to be spliced. A first heat conduction pad 8 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the lower shell 4, and a main board 9 is placed on the upper part of the first heat conduction pad 8. The first heat conduction pad 8 performs positioning on the lower end of the main board 9. Support, a pressure block 10 is installed inside one side of the lower shell 4, and the pressure block 10 drives the position of the connector to be limited, and a second heat conduction pad 11 and a mainboard positioning column 12 are installed inside the upper shell 1, and the second heat conduction pad 11 and the mainboard positioning column 12 limit the upper end position of the mainboard 9 and absorb the heat generated by the mainboard 9. A heat absorbing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outside of the upper shell 1, and the gas is transmitted to the outside of the heat absorbing plate 13, and the heat absorbing plate 13 dissipates the absorbed heat. A third slide groove 14 is opened on the outside of the upper shell 1, and a cover plate 15 is installed inside one end of the upper shell 1. The position of the internal connector can be adjusted by removing the cover plate 15.
[0024] Among them, the upper shell 1 is installed on the pod, and a fastening bolt is installed inside the first positioning hole 3, and the positioning groove 2 is fitted on the outside of the pod. By installing the upper shell 1 on the upper part of the pod, the convenience of installing the upper shell 1 can be improved by fastening the bolts, and the lower shell 4 is arranged at the lower end of the upper shell 1. After the upper shell 1 is installed, the position displacement of the first heat conduction pad 8 clamped at the upper end of the lower shell 4 can be avoided.
[0025] Among them, the heat absorbing plates 13 are arranged at equal intervals outside the upper shell 1, and the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 4 are made of metal structure. By installing the heat absorbing plates 13 on the outside of the upper shell 1, when the first heat conduction pad 8 is clamped inside the upper shell 1 and generates heat during use, the heat absorbing plates 13 can absorb the generated heat, and dissipate heat inside the device through heat transfer, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the device. The upper shell 1 and the lower shell 4 are made of metal structure, and the metal structure can improve the heat transfer efficiency.
[0026] Among them, the mainboard 9 is clamped between the second heat conduction pad 11 and the first heat conduction pad 8 installed inside the lower shell 4, and the mainboard positioning column 12 passes through the inside of the mainboard 9.

When the mainboard 9 generates heat during use, the first heat conduction pad 8 and the second heat conduction pad 11 absorb the heat at a fixed point, thereby improving the local heat dissipation efficiency of the outside of the mainboard 9.
[0027] Among them, the lower part of the lower shell 4 is provided with heat dissipation fins 6 and a connector connecting hole 7, and the connector connecting hole 7 is interconnected with the interior of the upper shell 1. By providing the heat dissipation fins 6 at the lower part of the lower shell 4, the overall weight of the lower shell 4 can be reduced, and a connector is installed inside the connector connecting hole 7. The connector can be connected to the mainboard 9, that is, it can be connected to the external device that needs to be controlled, while ensuring the gas circulation efficiency and improving the heat dissipation of the equipment.

By arranging the connecting mechanism inside the upper shell 1 and arranging the pressure block 10 outside the connecting mechanism, the pressure block 10 limits the position of the connecting mechanism, and the position between the connecting mechanism and the main board 9 can be spliced and limited, thereby improving the convenience when the subsequent main board 9 is connected to the control unit.
[0029] Working principle: When in use, the mainboard 9 is installed inside the upper shell 1, and the mainboard positioning column 12 installed inside the upper shell 1 passes through the mainboard 9, that is, the position of the mainboard 9 is limited, the second heat conduction pad 11 is in contact with the position outside the mainboard 9, and after being installed and connected with the mainboard 9 by using the connection structure, the pressing block 10 is installed inside the upper shell 1, thereby improving the stability of the equipment during position splicing, the lower shell 4 is fitted inside the lower end of the upper shell 1, and the fastening bolts are installed inside the second positioning hole 5 to improve the stability of the position splicing between the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 4, and the upper shell 1 is controlled to be installed on the pod, and the second heat conduction pad 11 and the first heat conduction pad 8 are in contact with the outside of the mainboard 9, and the heat is absorbed by heat radiation, and the absorbed heat is transmitted to the outside of the heat absorbing plate 13 through the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 4, and the externally installed fan is started, and the gas circulates, so that the heat absorbing plate 13 can be cooled, and during the gas circulation process, the gas circulates on the outer surface of the upper shell 1, and the heat dissipation of the equipment is improved by improving the gas circulation.
