Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of auxiliary power pods, and particularly relates to a micro generator installation module for a power pod. Background Technique

[0002] With the rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, the functions and application scenarios of UAVs are becoming more and more diverse. With the improvement of UAV functions, UAVs need to carry more power-consuming devices, resulting in a substantial increase in the power supply demand of UAVs.

[0003] There are various types of UAV power sources. For long-endurance UAVs, a fuel engine is generally used to provide flight power, and a small battery is carried on the UAV, but its power supply is limited. Although the fuel engine can also charge the battery, the conversion efficiency is low, which will also affect the endurance of the UAV. In order to provide sufficient power to the UAV without significantly affecting its endurance, an aviation auxiliary power pod can be mounted at the bottom of the UAV, and the pod uses a micro generator to generate electricity to charge the battery.

[0004] Generally, the micro generator is installed at the bottom inside the pod, and the installation is relatively stable. In addition, the peripheral function modules of the micro generator are placed near the generator. This installation method will significantly increase the installation area because both the function modules and the generator are at the bottom inside the pod, which is not conducive to the miniaturization of the pod. If the generator is installed at the top inside the pod, issues such as its fixed stability, lightweight of the fixing structure, disassembly, installation, maintenance, and operation need to be actually considered. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a micro generator installation module for a power pod, aiming to solve the above technical problems.

[0006] The utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0007] The micro generator installation module for a power pod includes a housing. Inside the housing, there are a micro generator, a power module, and a management module. The micro generator is installed on the top of the housing through a hanging frame. The power module and the management module are installed at the bottom inside the housing through a carrier frame. The hanging frame includes front and rear connectors installed on the top inside the housing. A flat plate is fixed to the bottom of the front and rear connectors. At both the front and rear ends of the flat plate, hanging plates are provided downward. The lower end of the front hanging plate is arc-shaped and forms multiple angle plates inward. A hoop is installed at the lower end of the rear hanging plate. The head end of the micro generator is fixed on the angle plates, and the middle part of the micro generator is fixed by the hoop.

[0008] Further, the carrier frame includes a bottom frame, a pair of Z-shaped plates, and a portal frame. The management module is locked to the top of the portal frame by screws, and the power module is installed between the pair of Z-shaped plates.

[0009] Furthermore, the casing includes an integral frame, and there is a watch case outside the integral frame. Heat dissipation openings are provided at the positions of the left and right watch cases, and a wire mesh is provided inside the heat dissipation openings.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom frame is fixed to the bottom of the integral frame through side blocks.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: In this installation module, the micro generator adopts a hoisting structure, and the functional modules are located below the micro generator, without occupying too much installation space, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the product; moreover, the installation structure of the hanger is firm, and the hanger structure is lightweight, which is also beneficial to reducing the overall weight of the nacelle and minimizing the impact of the nacelle on the endurance of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0016] In order to illustrate the technical solutions described in the present utility model, the following will be described through specific embodiments.

[0017] As Figures 1-3 shown, the micro generator installation module for a power nacelle provided in this embodiment includes a casing 1. A micro generator 2, a power module 3 and a management module 4 are arranged inside the casing 1. The micro generator 2 is installed on the top of the casing through a hanger 5. The power module 3 and the management module 4 are installed at the bottom inside the casing through a carrier 6. The hanger 5 includes front and rear connectors 51 installed on the top inside the casing. A flat plate 52 is fixed to the bottom of the front and rear connectors 51. Hanging plates are arranged downward at the front and rear ends of the flat plate 52.
