Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a drone nest of a low-altitude drone remote sensing network, belonging to the field of drone nest tools. Background Technique

[0002] Since the birth of the first unmanned aircraft in 1914, drones (UAVs) have a history of exactly 100 years. A drone is a powered, controllable, and multi-task-performable unmanned aerial vehicle. Since its birth, it has been mainly applied in the military field. As an intelligent and information-based weapon, drones have played an important role in reconnaissance, surveillance, communication, long-distance attack, etc. Compared with manned aircraft, drones are favored by the armies of various countries because of their advantages such as small size, low cost, convenient use, and strong adaptability. Drones will surely become the "sharp-winged soldiers" in the air and space field of the century.

[0003] In recent years, the application of drones in the civilian field has also been increasing, and various countries have gradually opened up the civilian use of drones. Drones have been widely applied in multiple fields such as public security, emergency search and rescue, agriculture and forestry, environmental protection, transportation, communication, meteorology, and film and television aerial photography. For example, a low-altitude drone remote sensing network arranged in cities can conduct intermittent patrols by drones carrying relevant detection equipment to achieve the purpose of detection. At the same time, with the development of low-altitude flying cars, the role of the drone remote sensing network will become more obvious. For example, drones in the remote sensing network can detect the path in advance and then plan a safe path for the flying car.

[0004] As the place where drones dock, charge, and store, the drone nest plays a crucial role in the remote sensing network. The existing drone nests have large structures and large occupied areas, or have high requirements for the layout places. For example, the tower-mounted drone nests used in the power grid can facilitate the supply of power. That is, there are high requirements for the distribution positions of drones in the remote sensing network.

[0005] There is a need for a drone nest that is easy to arrange, conducive to parking and power supply, and can flexibly adjust the distribution of drones in the drone remote sensing network. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a drone nest of a low-altitude drone remote sensing network, which is easy to arrange, conducive to parking and power supply, and can flexibly adjust the distribution of drones in the drone remote sensing network; it can overcome the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] The utility model discloses a drone nest for a low-altitude drone remote sensing network, which comprises a housing with an upward opening. A base is arranged inside the housing, and an energy storage device and a charging device for the drone are arranged on the base. A landing pad is arranged on the base.

The lower cover plate can move upward along the first guide rail and simultaneously push the upper cover plate upward to vacate the upper space of the housing, and the limiting grooves limit the closed state of the upper cover plate and the lower cover plate.

[0011] In the above, guide grooves are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the guide rods and the lower cover plate, and clamping blocks that cooperate with the guide grooves are respectively arranged on the first guide rail and the second guide rail.

Specific embodiments

[0035] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for explaining the present invention, rather than limiting the protection scope of the present invention.

[0036] Such as Figures 1 - 10As shown in the figure, the utility model discloses a drone nest of a low-altitude drone remote sensing network, which includes a housing 1 with an upward opening. A base 2 is provided inside the housing 1. An energy storage device and a charging device for the drone are provided on the base 2. A maintenance sealing door 11 communicating with the base 2 is provided at the lower end of the housing 1. A landing pad 3 is provided on the base 2. The middle and upper part of the housing 1 is an outwardly inclined opening. A solar cover 4 and an unfolding and closing device for the solar cover 4 are provided at the upper end of the housing 1. The solar cover 4 is connected to the energy storage device. With such a structure, through the outwardly inclined opening, firstly, more lifting space can be provided for the drone, which is beneficial to the lifting and lowering of the drone. Secondly, electricity can be generated through the solar cover 4, and then stored through the energy storage device, and then used to charge the drone. In this way, the layout of the drone station can be flexibly carried out, which is beneficial to improving the drone remote sensing network detection system. The solar cover 4 can be opened or closed through the unfolding and closing device, so as to realize the lifting and lowering and storage and rain protection of the drone.

[0037] Furthermore, the upper end of the housing 1 is an inclined surface with one high and one low. The solar cover 4 is inclinedly installed at the upper end of the housing 1. With such a structure, by inclinedly installing the solar cover 4, it is beneficial for the solar cover 4 to receive light over a larger area for power generation.

[0038] Further, the solar cover plate 4 is composed of an upper cover plate 4-1 and a lower cover plate 4-2 that can be superposed on each other. A guide rod 4-3 is provided on the lower cover plate 4-2. A first guide rail 4-4 that cooperates with the guide rod 4-3 is provided at the high end of the housing 1. A second guide rail 4-5 that cooperates with the guide rod 4-3 is provided on the upper cover plate 4-1. Limit slots 5 for the upper cover plate 4-1 and the lower cover plate 4-2 are provided on both the left and right sides of the housing 1. The lower cover plate 4-2 can move upward along the first guide rail 4-4 and simultaneously push the upper cover plate 4-1 upward to vacate the upper space of the housing 1. The limit slots 5 limit the closed state of the upper cover plate 4-1 and the lower cover plate 4-2. In detail, a limit block for the upper cover plate 4-1 is provided on the free section of the guide rod 4-3. In this way, when closing, the upper cover plate 4-1 can be pulled down for closing through the limit block. Although when closing, the upper cover plate 4-1 can slide downward under the action of gravity to achieve closing, however, the limit block can further ensure the stability of the closing of the upper cover plate 4-1. Moreover, a rain shield for covering the housing 1 is provided on the upper side edge of the upper cover plate 4-1. With such a structure, the lower cover plate 4-2 can move upward along the first guide rail 4-4 and simultaneously push the upper cover plate 4-1 upward to vacate the upper space of the housing 1, which can maximize the surrounding space above the apron 3, thus facilitating the lifting and lowering of the unmanned aerial vehicle. By dividing the solar cover plate 4 into the upper cover plate 4-1 and the lower cover plate 4-2, and moreover, in the later stage of unfolding, the lower cover plate 4-2 can move upward along the first guide rail 4-4 and simultaneously push the upper cover plate 4-1 upward. The upper cover plate 4-1 and the lower cover plate 4-2 in the folded state can move the overall center of gravity of the solar function cover plate 4 closer to the base 2, minimizing the lever force on the base 2 due to the unfolding of the solar cover plate 4 as much as possible, which is beneficial to maintaining the stability of the base 2.

[0039] Specifically, guide grooves 4-6 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the guide rod 4-3 and the lower cover plate 4-2. Clamping blocks 4-7 that cooperate and are clamped with the guide grooves 4-6 are respectively provided on the first guide rail 4-4 and the second guide rail 4-5. In this way, the first guide rail 4-4 and the second guide rail 4-5 can share the guide rod 4-3, thus ensuring the guiding movement.

[0040] Further, the unfolding and closing device includes a rack 6 provided at the lower end of the lower cover plate 4-2. A gear 7 that cooperates with the rack 6 is provided at the high end of the housing 1. The gear 7 is connected to a driving motor 8. The controller of the driving motor 8 is connected to the central computer through a signal transmission device. In this way, the unfolding or closing of the lower cover plate 4-2 can be realized through the cooperation of the rack 6, the gear 7, and the driving motor 8.

[0041] Further, a gap 9 is provided between the base 2 and the side of the housing 1, and a through hole 10 is provided at the bottom of the gap 9. In this way, through the through hole 10, firstly, the ventilation effect can be achieved inside the housing 1; secondly, when water seeps into the housing 1, the water can be drained through the through hole 10; thirdly, through some of the through holes 10, screws can be installed to facilitate the fixation of the housing 1.

[0042] When such a device is in use, when the drone needs to ascend or descend, the central computer issues an instruction to the drive motor 8, and then the drive motor 8 opens the upper cover plate 4-1 and the lower cover plate 4-2 of the solar cover plate 4, so as to create a space for the drone to ascend and descend, facilitating the drone to cruise along the established route.

[0043] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and there is no restriction on the present invention in any form of confidentiality.
