During the automatic release and recovery of UAVs, the opening and closing states of the shelter door need to be precisely controlled. The control mechanism of the UAV shelter door needs to have the advantages of stability, reliability, short time, and high efficiency. In the current application of UAV shelters, it is common to use independent motors and control systems to control the shelter door. This device occupies a large amount of space inside the shelter, has a complex structure, and is difficult to assemble. In addition, the control of the independent motor increases the complexity of the overall control system of the shelter, which greatly increases the manufacturing cost of the shelter.

[0021] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the utility model is a door control mechanism suitable for a multi-rotor UAV cabin, comprising a cabin body, a door pull rod mechanism and a platform mechanism. The cabin body comprises a box frame 1, a cabin door 5, a cabin door shaft 4, a cabin door left connecting rod arm 6, and a cabin door right connecting rod arm 7. The cabin door 5 is connected to the box frame 1 through the cabin door shaft 4, and the cabin door left connecting rod arm 6 and the cabin door right connecting rod arm 7 are respectively fixed to the lower surfaces of the left and right cabin doors using screws.

[0023] Two groups of door pull rod mechanisms 3 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the box frame 1, and the two have the same structure. The door pull rod mechanism 3 on the left side includes a flip link 15, a pull rod slide 13, a door pull slider 14, a door pull rod 9, a spring stopper 12, a fixed pin 16, a compression spring 11, a spring support seat 10 and a door traction block 8. The upper end of the door pull rod 9 passes through the through hole of the pull rod slide 13 and is connected to the door pull slider 14 by threading. One end of the flip link 15 is connected to the door pull slider 14 by screws. The door pull rod 9 is equipped with a spring stopper 12, and the fixed pin 16 passes through the through hole of the door pull rod 9 and the spring stopper 12 for fixing. The lower end of the door pull rod 9 passes through the compression spring 11 and the spring stopper 12 and is connected to the door traction block 8 by threading. After the door pull rod mechanism components are assembled, the pull rod slide 13 and the spring stopper 12 are fixed to both sides of the box frame with screws, and the flip link 15 is connected to the door left link arm 6 with screws. The threads at both ends of the door pull rod 9 are rotated in opposite directions, and the distance between the door pull slider 14 and the door traction block 8 can be adjusted by rotating the door pull rod 9.

[0024] The platform mechanism 2 includes a lifting platform 18 and a roller needle bearing 17 , and is connected to the lifting platform 18 via a threaded column at the side end of the roller needle bearing 17 .

[0025] During the lifting process of the lifting platform 18, the roller needle bearing 17 cooperates with the door traction block 8 to complete the opening and closing of the cabin door. When the cabin is in a fully closed state, the platform is at the lowest position, the roller needle bearing 17 presses the door traction block 8, and the spring 11 is in the state of maximum compression. Figure 4 As shown; the platform rises, and under the elastic force of the spring 11, the spring stopper 12 moves upward, driving the hatch traction block 8, the hatch pull rod 9, and the hatch pull slider 14 to move upward as a whole, so that the flip connecting rod 15 pushes the hatch 5 to rotate around the hatch shaft 4, so that the hatch 5 is opened, and the spring stopper 12 moves upward until it contacts the lower surface of the pull rod slide 13, and the hatch 5 is fully opened. When the hatch 5 is fully opened, the state of the cabin is as shown Figure 1 As shown; after the hatch door is fully opened, the platform 18 continues to rise to the highest position. When the platform 18 starts to descend from the highest position, the hatch door 5 is in an open state; the platform 18 descends until the front roller needle bearing 17 contacts the hatch door traction block 8, and the platform 18 continues to descend, driving the hatch door traction block 8, the hatch door pull rod 9, and the hatch door pulling slider 14 to move downward as a whole, so that the flip connecting rod 15 pulls the hatch door 5 to rotate around the hatch door shaft 4, so that the hatch door 5 is closed; when the platform descends to the lowest position, the hatch door 5 is completely closed.

[0026] This embodiment uses a mechanical linkage mechanism to replace the control system of the independent motor-controlled cabin door. The opening and closing states of the cabin door have a follow-up relationship with the lifting and lowering movement of the platform, which makes the internal structure of the UAV cabin simpler, increases the internal usable space of the cabin, and reduces the difficulty of cabin assembly. Military equipment has high requirements for the accuracy of the motors used, the working storage temperature, and maintenance. Reducing the number of motors can save the manufacturing cost of the cabin. Experiments have shown that the hatch cover control mechanism of the UAV cabin of the utility model is stable, reliable, and efficient, and can meet the requirements of opening and closing the cabin door.

[0027] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make several modifications and improvements without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements should also be considered to belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
