Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of UAV recovery, and particularly relates to a UAV airport for fan blade detection. Background Technique

[0002] At present, in the fan blade detection industry, it is usually adopted to control the UAV to fly to the fan blade to collect images and generate a detection report based on image recognition to complete the detection. However, due to the limited power of the UAV and the high power consumption of various recognition modules configured therein, it is necessary to return to the nest for charging after detecting a limited number of fans, or to return to the nest after completing the detection task.

[0003] As an important ground infrastructure, the UAV airport has functions of automatic takeoff and landing, storage, charging and battery replacement, remote communication, data storage and intelligent analysis and other full-automatic operations. However, there are some problems in actual applications at present. Especially when the UAV lands back in the nest for charging after completing the fan blade detection, if it encounters bad weather, its positioning effect will deteriorate significantly, which is very likely to cause safety accidents. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to solve the problem that when the UAV lands back in the nest for charging after completing the fan blade detection as described in the background technique, if it encounters bad weather, its positioning effect will deteriorate significantly, which is very likely to cause safety accidents, the utility model proposes the following technical solutions:

[0006] Wherein, the surface of the base is hollowed out, and one side of the base is fixedly connected to a vibration motor.

[0007] Further, a light belt and a storage battery electrically connected to the controller are laid on the narrow surface of the top plate.

[0008] Further, a plurality of photovoltaic modules electrically connected to the storage battery are spaced on the surface of each of the top plates.

[0009] Further, the moving device includes a left side and a right side, the left side and the right side are respectively fixedly connected to one of the top plates, and when the drone returns, the left side and the right side respectively drive one of the top plates to move, thereby unfolding the cabin.

[0010] Beneficial effects: By starting the moving device through the controller to unfold the interior of the cabin and the heating wire to form a temperature difference area, the utility model provides multiple easily recognizable feature areas for the positioning when the drone returns, so that the drone can quickly return to the nest for charging.

[0015] Figure 1 FIG. is a schematic internal structure diagram of a drone airport for detecting wind turbine blades according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0016] Refer to Figure 1, A drone airport for fan blade detection according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a chassis 1, a moving device 2, a top plate 3, a plurality of bases 4, and an ash storage hopper 5. An engine room 11 for accommodating each base 4 and the ash storage hopper 5 is provided inside the chassis 1, and a controller 6 for controlling the overall interaction between the chassis 1 and the drone is provided on the outer side of the chassis 1. Among them, the controller 6 is electrically connected to the moving device 2 and the drone respectively. The sliding rail side of the moving device 2 is fixedly provided on the top of the chassis 1, and the sliding side of the moving device 2 is relatively fixed to the top plate 3. Each base 4 is embedded in the engine room 11, and one side of each base 4 away from the top plate 3 is fixedly connected, so as to form a chassis 7 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the engine room 11. Each base 4 is respectively provided with a heating wire 8 electrically connected to the controller 6 on the side close to the top plate 3. The ash storage hopper 5 is slidably connected to the chassis 7 to collect dust, sand grains, etc. adhered to the drone chassis 7 after the drone returns. When the drone returns, the controller 6 drives the moving device 2 and the heating wire 8 to start, and the moving device 2 drives the top plate 3 to move relative to the engine room 11, so as to unfold the engine room 11 and recover the drone.

[0017] Specifically, the moving device 2 includes a left side portion 21 and a right side portion 22. Among them, the sliding rail side of the left side portion 21 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the chassis 1, and the sliding side of the left side portion 21 is fixedly connected to a top plate 3. The sliding rail side of the right side portion 22 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the chassis 1, and the sliding side of the right side portion 22 is fixedly connected to a top plate 3. In this embodiment, the moving device 2 is an electric slide rail, and the left side portion 21 and the right side portion 22 are respectively individual sliders on the electric slide rail. The left side portion 21 and the right side portion 22 move relatively or towards each other, thereby driving the top plate 3 to move, so as to complete the two actions of unfolding and closing the engine room 11.

[0018] In order to make it easier for the drone to locate and return in the night environment, preferably, in this embodiment, a light strip 31 and a storage battery 32 electrically connected to the controller 6 are laid on the narrow surface of each top plate 3. When the drone returns, the controller 6 controls the light strip 31 to start, so as to facilitate the drone to identify. Further, a photovoltaic module 33 connected to the storage battery 32 is provided on the surface of each top plate 3. When encountering extreme situations such as power outages, the storage battery 32 can be used to supply power to the controller 6 and the moving device 2 respectively, so as to ensure the normal operation of the engine room 11. When the weather is good, the photovoltaic module 33 can also supply power to the corresponding storage battery 32, so as to improve the service life of the entire chassis 1.

[0020] Further, referring to Figure 2, the surface of the chassis 7 is hollowed out, and the heating wires 8 are evenly distributed along the side of the chassis 7 close to the top plate 3. In order to improve the cleaning effect of the drone in the cabin 11, in this embodiment, a vibration motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the chassis 7. When the drone lands on the surface of the base 4, the controller 6 drives the vibration motor to start, so that the drone and the base 4 vibrate simultaneously to clean the sand and dust on the bottom of the drone.

[0021] When the drone returns, especially under adverse weather conditions such as rainy days, the controller 6 controls the heating wire 8 to start, so as to form a temperature area matching each base 4 in the cabin 11, so that the infrared module in the drone can identify and judge.

[0022] In summary, the present utility model starts the moving device through the controller to expand the interior of the cabin, and the heating wire forms a temperature difference area, so as to provide multiple easily recognizable feature areas for the positioning of the drone when it returns, so that the drone can quickly return to the nest for charging.
