[0021] The utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a vehicle equipped with an automatic lifting platform for a drone includes a vehicle body 1, a skylight 2 is provided on the top of the vehicle body 1, a fixing plate 3 connected to a compartment wall 14 of the vehicle body 1 is provided below the skylight 2, a lifting mechanism is provided on the fixing plate 3, a carrying plate 4 for carrying a drone is provided on the lifting mechanism, an opening and closing device for opening and closing the skylight 2, and a controller. The controller is a PLC.

[0024] The opening and closing device includes two cover plates 5 rotatably connected to the sunroof 2, and a driving mechanism for driving the cover plates 5 to rotate, and two limit plates 6 are correspondingly provided at the bottom of the sunroof 2. Of course, the opening and closing device is not limited to the above structure, and a traditional opening and closing structure of a car sunroof may also be adopted, which will not be described in detail here.

[0025] The driving mechanism includes two opening and closing cylinders 7 disposed below the skylight 2 and a driving plate 8 disposed on the opening and closing cylinders 7 . A connecting plate 9 for connecting with the driving plate 8 is disposed on each of the two cover plates 5 .

[0026] The lifting mechanism includes a scissor-type lifting assembly 15 and a driving assembly for driving the scissor-type lifting assembly 15 to operate. The scissor-type lifting assembly 15 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here. The driving assembly includes a positioning plate 10 arranged on a fixed plate 3, two first limit grooves 11 slidably connected to the bottom of the scissor-type lifting assembly are respectively arranged on both sides of the positioning plate 10, two second limit grooves 12 slidably connected to the top of the scissor-type lifting assembly are respectively arranged on both sides of the bearing plate 4, and a driving cylinder 13 connected to the scissor-type lifting assembly is arranged on the fixed plate 3, and the driving cylinder 13 is connected to the controller signal.

[0027] By arranging the sunroof 2, the fixing plate 3, the lifting mechanism, the bearing plate 4, the opening and closing device and the controller on the automobile body, the deployment of the drone can be carried out more quickly and conveniently compared with the traditional drone lifting platform which cannot be displaced or can be carried by manual operation.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] The similarities between this embodiment and embodiment 1 are not repeated here. The difference between the present embodiment and embodiment 1 is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the carrying plate 4 carrying the drone, the above-mentioned vehicle carrying the drone automatic lifting platform also includes a fixing mechanism arranged on the carrying plate 4 for fixing the drone on the carrying plate 4 after the drone lands on the carrying plate 4. The fixing mechanism includes a rotating downward pressure cylinder 16 arranged on the side of the carrying plate 4 and connected to the controller signal, and a downward pressure rod 17 arranged on the rotating downward pressure cylinder 16, a downward pressure plate 18 is arranged at the bottom of the downward pressure rod 17, and a detection element (not shown in the figure) for detecting the landing of the drone on the carrying plate 4 is arranged on one side of the rotating downward pressure cylinder 16. The detection element can be a photoelectric switch. When the detection element detects that the drone has landed on the carrying plate 4, a signal is sent to the controller, and the controller sends a signal to the rotating downward pressure cylinder 16 to press the base of the drone. The reason for setting the rotating downward pressure cylinder 16 is that the rotating downward pressure cylinder 16 rotates, and does not hinder the drone from falling on the carrying plate 4. In order to further improve the fixing effect, the number of the fixing mechanism is two and is correspondingly arranged in the middle of the side of the carrying plate 4.

[0030] Example 3

[0031] The similarities between this embodiment and embodiment 1 are not repeated here. The difference lies in that: in order to further improve practicality, the automobile body 1 is an unmanned vehicle that can be remotely controlled, and the current vehicle-mounted remote control driving control system has become the prior art, such as CN113486452B, which discloses a method and device for remote control of unmanned driving equipment, and CN109808705A, which discloses a system for remote control driving control, so they are not repeated here.

[0032] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by ordinary technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
