Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles and relates to a multi-lens adaptive measuring device for oblique photography of unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Art
[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicle, abbreviated as "UAV", is an unmanned aerial vehicle controlled by radio remote control equipment and self-contained program control device. UAV is actually a general term for unmanned aerial vehicles. From a technical point of view, it can be divided into: unmanned fixed-wing aircraft, unmanned vertical take-off and landing aircraft, unmanned airships, unmanned helicopters, unmanned multi-rotor aircraft, unmanned paragliders, etc.
[0003] When using drone photography for surveying and mapping, it is generally used in airspace below 300m. At present, the cameras on oblique photography drones are fixed, specifically one of the cameras is fixed vertically to the ground, and the other cameras are set at an angle of 30 to 45 degrees to the ground; when surveying and mapping, drones usually fly according to the planned route and keep the yaw angle of the drone not too large (not greater than 15°). When the yaw angle is greater than 15°, it will cause difficulties in later image stitching. However, in the process of navigational photography surveying and mapping, since the navigation trajectory is easily affected, it will switch between parallel and oblique states, affecting the accuracy of photography and videography; moreover, the excessive yaw angle of the drone will make it difficult to stitch images later. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides a multi-lens adaptive measuring device for tilted photography of unmanned aerial vehicles in order to solve the problems in the prior art that navigation is easily affected, causing it to switch between parallel and tilted states, affecting the accuracy of photography and videography; and, excessive yaw angle of the unmanned aerial vehicle makes it difficult to stitch images in the later stage.
[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A multi-lens adaptive measuring device for oblique photography of unmanned aerial vehicles comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle body and two supporting legs fixed at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle body; a fixing block is fixed at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle body, a five-piece oblique photography camera for photography is arranged on the lower side of the fixing block, and a group of vertical correction components for correcting the five-piece oblique photography camera is arranged between the fixing block and the five-piece oblique photography camera;
[0007] The fixing block is also provided with a group of positioning components for fixing the position of the oblique photography five-piece camera after correction and a reset component used in conjunction with the positioning component. The reset component is used to automatically start the vertical correction component after the squeezing is released.
[0008] Furthermore, the vertical correction component includes a circular adjustment groove opened in the fixed block, an adjustment ball is rollingly connected in the circular adjustment groove, a connecting fixing rod is fixed on the surface of the adjustment ball, and the tilt photography five-piece camera is fixed at the bottom end of the connecting fixing rod.
[0009] Furthermore, the positioning assembly includes two first grooves which are opened in the fixed block and connected to the circular adjustment groove, arc-shaped clamping blocks are slid in the two first grooves, and the arc-shaped surfaces of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks are in contact with the surface of the adjusting ball, and extrusion grooves are opened in the two arc-shaped clamping blocks, and a second groove is opened in the fixed block, and a slide plate slides in the second groove, and two extrusion rods are fixed to the side ends of the slide plate, and the two extrusion rods move outward and penetrate into the two extrusion grooves respectively, and the two extrusion rods contact the inclined surfaces of the two extrusion grooves respectively, and a third groove which is connected to the second groove is opened in the fixed block, and a micro electric push rod is fixed in the third groove, and the slide plate is fixed on the output end of the micro electric push rod.
[0010] Furthermore, anti-slip pads are provided inside the arc-shaped surfaces of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks.
[0011] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes two accommodating grooves opened in the fixing block, the two accommodating grooves are respectively connected to the two first grooves, tension springs are fixed in the two accommodating grooves, and the two tension springs are respectively fixed to the ends of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks that are far away from each other.
[0012] Furthermore, rubber rings are fixed to both ends of the surface of the supporting leg.
[0013] In the present application, the slide plate is driven to move outward by starting the micro electric push rod, and the slide plate drives the two extrusion rods to move. The two extrusion rods squeeze the inclined surfaces of the two extrusion grooves respectively, thereby driving the two arc clamping blocks to move in the direction of approaching each other, so that the two arc clamping blocks squeeze and fit the surface of the adjusting ball, fix the position of the adjusting ball, and thus fix the position of the connecting fixed rod and the oblique photography five-piece camera. When the drone body deviates during flight, the micro electric push rod drives the slide plate to reset, and the slide plate drives the extrusion rod to reset, the extrusion groove loses extrusion, the tension spring pulls the arc clamping block to reset, and after the adjusting ball loses the limit, the oblique photography five-piece camera itself will move vertically downward due to the action of gravity. No matter how the drone body and the fixed block deviate, the oblique photography five-piece camera can remain perpendicular to the ground due to gravity.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0015] 1. The utility model discloses a multi-lens adaptive measuring device for oblique photography of unmanned aerial vehicles. Through a vertical correction component, it can achieve the effect of automatically making the oblique photography five-piece camera perpendicular to the ground when the unmanned aerial vehicle body deviates from the route.

Therefore, the terms describing the positional relationship in the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 A measuring device includes a drone body 1 and two support legs 2 fixed to the bottom of the drone body 1, and rubber rings 3 are fixed at both ends of the surface of the support legs 2 to increase the stability of the device and prevent scratches on the ground.
[0031] A fixed block 4 is fixed directly below the drone body 1, and a tilted photography five-piece camera 5 is provided on the lower side of the fixed block 4 for photography operations. A set of vertical correction components is provided between the fixed block 4 and the tilted photography five-piece camera 5 for correcting the tilted photography five-piece camera 5. The vertical correction component includes a circular adjustment groove 6 provided in the fixed block 4, an adjustment ball 7 is connected in a rolling manner in the circular adjustment groove 6, a connecting and fixing rod 8 is fixed on the surface of the adjustment ball 7, and the tilted photography five-piece camera 5 is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting and fixing rod 8. When the angle of the tilted photography five-piece camera 5 needs to be adjusted, it can be achieved by adjusting the rolling of the adjustment ball 7 in the circular adjustment groove 6.
[0032] A group of positioning components for fixing the position of the oblique photography five-piece camera 5 after correction is also provided in the fixed block 4. The positioning components include two first grooves 9 opened in the fixed block 4 and connected to the circular adjustment groove 6. Arc-shaped clamping blocks 12 are slid in the two first grooves 9. The arc-shaped surface of the arc-shaped clamping blocks 12 fits the surface of the adjustment ball 7. Extrusion grooves 13 are opened in the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 12.
[0033] A second groove 15 is provided in the fixed block 4, and a slide plate 16 slides in the second groove 15. Two extrusion rods 14 are fixed to the side ends of the slide plate 16. The two extrusion rods 14 move outward and penetrate the two extrusion grooves 13 respectively, and contact the inclined surface of the extrusion groove 13. When the slide plate 16 slides in the second groove 15, the extrusion rod 14 will move accordingly, and then produce an extrusion effect on the arc-shaped clamping block 12 through the extrusion groove 13, so that it fits tightly on the surface of the adjustment ball 7, thereby fixing the adjustment ball 7. A micro electric push rod 18 is fixed in the third groove 17, and the slide plate 16 is fixed to the output end of the micro electric push rod 18. By controlling the extension and contraction of the micro electric push rod 18, the position of the slide plate 16 can be accurately controlled, thereby clamping and releasing the arc-shaped clamping block 12.
[0034] Reference Figure 3-Figure 4 The reset component used in conjunction with the vertical correction component and the positioning component includes two accommodating grooves 10 opened in the fixed block 4, and the two accommodating grooves 10 are respectively connected to the two first grooves 9. Tension springs 11 are fixed in the two accommodating grooves 10, and the two tension springs 11 are respectively fixed to the ends of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 12 that are away from each other. When it is necessary to release the fixation of the adjusting ball 7, the micro-electric push rod 18 retracts, and the slide plate 16 and the extrusion rod 14 move back. At this time, the tension spring 11 will pull the arc-shaped clamping block 12 away from the adjusting ball 7 under the action of elastic force, so that it automatically resets and prepares for the next clamping operation.
[0035] When the UAV body 1 deviates during flight, the micro electric push rod 18 drives the slide plate 16 to reset, the slide plate 16 drives the extrusion rod 14 to reset, the extrusion groove 13 loses extrusion, the tension spring 11 pulls the arc clamping block 12 to reset, and after the adjusting ball 7 loses its limit, the tilt photography five-piece camera 5 itself will move vertically downward due to the action of gravity. No matter how the UAV body 1 and the fixed block 4 deviate, the tilt photography five-piece camera 5 can remain perpendicular to the ground due to gravity.
[0036] In summary, the multi-lens adaptive measuring device for oblique photography of unmanned aerial vehicles of the present invention can realize the precise correction, fixation and resetting operations of the oblique photography five-piece camera 5 through the coordinated use of the vertical correction component, the positioning component and the reset component. It has the advantages of convenient operation, high efficiency and good stability, and is suitable for various unmanned aerial vehicle oblique photography scenes.
[0037] The present application can be used for multi-lens adaptive measurement for oblique photography of unmanned aerial vehicles, and can also be used in other fields applicable to the present application.

[0040] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the drone body 1 and the micro electric push rod 18 are commonplace, and are conventional means or common knowledge, and will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any optional selections according to their needs or convenience.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it.
