Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aerial surveying and mapping, in particular to a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Background Technique
[0002] Surveying and mapping literally means measuring and mapping. Based on computer technology, optoelectronic technology, network communication technology, space science, and information science, with the global navigation satellite system (GNSS), remote sensing (RS), and geographic information system (GIS) as the technical core, it selects existing feature points and boundaries on the ground and obtains graphical and position information reflecting the current ground situation through measurement means for engineering construction, planning and design, and administrative management.
[0003] When conducting surveying and mapping, UAVs are used. However, existing surveying and mapping UAVs do not have the function of facilitating the fixation of surveying and mapping devices, resulting in cumbersome steps, time-consuming and laborious when users install surveying and mapping devices at the bottom of the UAV. This not only reduces the installation speed but also affects the disassembly, making it inconvenient for users to use and reducing the practicality of the UAV.
[0004] The existing patent (publication number: CN214986121U) proposed a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping UAV, including a UAV body, with wings installed at both left and right ends of the UAV body; a surveying and mapping device body is arranged at the bottom of the UAV body, and a fixing mechanism is arranged between the surveying and mapping device body and the UAV body; by quickly hanging the flanging arranged on the mounting block with the connecting plate, and then sealing the connecting plate through the movable sealing plate after hanging; it can effectively further fix the surveying and mapping device body, with a simple structure, convenient operation, and easy to promote and apply.
[0005] The above fixing mechanism has the following disadvantages when in use: Since the surveying and mapping UAV needs to carry different surveying and mapping instruments during the actual surveying and mapping process, it can only fix a single surveying and mapping instrument, resulting in a small applicability and poor practicality of the fixing mechanism. For this reason, we propose a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping UAV to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model
[0006] The utility model provides a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping UAV, which solves the technical problem that in the actual surveying and mapping process, the surveying and mapping UAV needs to carry different surveying and mapping instruments, but can only fix a single surveying and mapping instrument, resulting in a small applicability and poor practicality of the fixing mechanism.
[0007] To solve the above technical problems, a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping unmanned aerial vehicle provided by the utility model includes a base plate and a carrying platform arranged on the base plate. A connecting component for connecting the unmanned aerial vehicle is arranged on the base plate. An activity groove is formed on the top surface of the carrying platform. A transmission gear is rotatably installed inside the activity groove. A first rack and a second rack are also slidably arranged inside the activity groove. Both the first rack and the second rack are meshed and connected with the transmission gear. Positioning clamping plates are fixedly connected to the top surfaces of both the first rack and the second rack. A threaded rod is rotatably installed on the carrying platform. The first rack is threadedly connected to the threaded rod.
[0008] Preferably, a rotating shaft is rotatably installed inside the activity groove. The transmission gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft.
[0009] Preferably, a threaded through hole is formed inside the first rack. The first rack is threadedly connected to the threaded rod through the threaded through hole.
[0010] Preferably, the connecting component includes a first damping rod and a connecting plate. The first damping rod is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. The connecting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the first damping rod. An assembly hole for connecting with the unmanned aerial vehicle is formed through the connecting plate.
[0011] Preferably, a first buffer spring is sleeved outside the first damping rod. The top end of the first buffer spring is connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate. The bottom end of the first buffer spring is connected to the top surface of the base plate.
[0012] Preferably, a second damping rod is fixedly installed on the side wall of the base plate. The piston end of the second damping rod is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the carrying platform. A second buffer spring is sleeved outside the second damping rod. One end of the second buffer spring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the base plate. The other end of the second buffer spring is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the carrying platform.
[0013] Preferably, a guiding groove is formed on the top surface of the carrying platform. A guiding block is arranged inside the guiding groove. The guiding block is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the positioning clamping plate.
[0014] Preferably, a flexible pad is arranged on the inner side wall of the positioning clamping plate. The flexible pad is made of rubber material.
[0015] Compared with the related technology, a fixing mechanism for a surveying and mapping unmanned aerial vehicle provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] In the utility model, the threaded rod can be rotated to drive the first rack threadedly connected thereto to slide horizontally inside the movable groove. During the horizontal sliding of the first rack, the transmission gear meshing therewith is driven to rotate. The transmission gear drives the second rack meshing therewith to slide horizontally inside the movable groove. The horizontal movement of the first rack and the second rack can drive the positioning clamping plate fixed thereto to move relative to each other. The positioning clamping plate can be used to clamp the surveying and mapping instrument to achieve the effect of fixing the surveying and mapping instrument. Different surveying and mapping instruments can be fixed by the clamping and fixing method.
[0017] In the utility model, the first damping rod and the connecting plate are provided to facilitate the installation of the fixing mechanism as a whole on the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the base plate and the bearing platform are provided to facilitate the support of the surveying and mapping instrument. When the first damping rod is subjected to up and down vibrations during use, the first damping rod contracts up and down, and the first buffer spring sleeved on the outside thereof can follow the expansion and contraction of the first damping rod to achieve compression deformation. The base plate, the bearing platform, the first damping rod and the connecting plate cooperate to achieve an up and down vibration buffering effect, thereby reducing the flight vibrations suffered by the surveying and mapping instrument, and further reducing the up and down shaking amplitude of the bearing platform, achieving a shock absorbing effect in the up and down directions. When the bearing platform is subjected to left and right shaking, the second damping rod and the second buffer spring are compressed and stretched, thereby supporting the bearing platform, which can effectively achieve a shock absorbing effect when it shakes left and right, thereby achieving a multi-directional buffering and shock absorbing effect for the bearing platform, improving the overall seismic resistance, and improving the stability of the surveying and mapping instrument fixed on the unmanned aerial vehicle.
