The main purpose of meteorological monitoring is to provide timely and accurate weather forecasts to ensure the safety of people's lives and production. Low-altitude meteorological monitoring devices are instruments used to monitor meteorological elements from the ground to the troposphere. They mostly adopt the form of a combination of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and meteorological monitoring devices to monitor low-altitude meteorology.

[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2, an embodiment provided by the present utility model: a low-altitude meteorological monitoring device, including a drone 1, which is used to carry a monitoring mechanism 2 to monitor low-altitude meteorology. A monitoring mechanism 2 is arranged on the top of the drone 1. It is an existing meteorological monitoring device, which can be a monitoring device for temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc. Protection components 3 are arranged on the front, back, left and right parts of the drone 1, which are used to protect the drone 1 and the monitoring mechanism 2 when the drone 1 topples during landing and parking. A plurality of support mechanisms are arranged at the lower part of the drone 1, which are used to support the drone 1 to ensure the stable parking of the drone 1. The support mechanism includes a connecting piece 4 and a support piece 5. An air pump 6 is arranged at the lower part of the drone 1, which is used to inflate the protection component 3 to make the airbag 31 bulge, so as to better protect the drone 1 and the monitoring mechanism 2 connected thereto. The air pump 6 is controlled by an induction device, which is installed on the drone 1. It can monitor the tilting angle of the drone 1 during parking through a pre-set control program. When there is a risk of the drone 1 toppling, the induction device can control the air pump 6 to start through a circuit, etc. Legs 11 are movably connected to the front and rear parts of the front right side of the drone 1, which are used to support the drone 1. The connecting ball 42 located at the upper part is rotatably connected to the bottom of the leg 11, which is used to cooperate with the connection between the support mechanism and the drone 1. The connecting ball 42 located at the upper part and the leg 11 cannot be separated.
[0032] Furthermore, the output end of the air pump 6 is fixedly connected with a four-way connector 61, which is used to connect multiple hoses 62 to enable the air pump 6 to communicate with multiple hoses 62. Hoses 62 are movably connected to the front, back, left and right parts of the four-way connector 61, which are used to cooperate with the connection between the air pump 6 and the airbag 31. A fixing ring 63 is fixedly connected to the middle of the hose 62, which is used to cooperate with the connection between the hose 62 and the drone 1. The fixing ring 63 is fixedly connected to the drone 1.
[0033] As Figure 3 - Figure 4 shown, the connecting piece 4 includes a connecting rod 41, which is used to cooperate with connecting various components. Connecting balls 42 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the connecting rod 41 respectively, which are used to connect the leg 11 and the support piece 5 respectively. The support piece 5 includes a support pad 51, which can be made of plastic, rubber and other materials and has a certain hardness. A connecting seat 53 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the support pad 51, which is used to cooperate with the connection of the connecting piece 4. The connecting ball 42 located at the lower part is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 53, which is used to cooperate with the angle adjustment of the support piece 5 to adapt to uneven ground. A plurality of anti-slip strips 52 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support pad 51, which are used to improve the anti-slip property of the support pad 51 to improve the stability of the drone 1 during parking.
[0034] Further, the protection component 3 includes an airbag 31, which can be made of materials such as rubber and can deform. When not in use, the airbag 31 is in a deflated state. After the airbag 31 bulges, it is in the shape of a frustum with a wider upper part and a narrower lower part, which can better protect the blades of the drone 1 and the monitoring mechanism 2 on the upper part. The airbag 31 is fixedly connected to the leg 11. The top of the airbag 31 is fixedly connected with an air inlet pipe 33, which is used to connect with the hose 62, and the hose 62 is movably connected thereto. A plurality of support bars 32 are fixedly connected to the outside of the airbag 31 for cooperating with the expansion and contraction of the airbag 31. The top surface of the airbag 31 is provided with a first folding surface 311 and a second folding surface 312 to cooperate with the expansion and contraction of the airbag 31. A folding ring groove 313 is jointly arranged between the first folding surface 311 and the second folding surface 312 to cooperate with the folding of the first folding surface 311 and the second folding surface 312.
[0035] Working principle: During use, the drone 1 drives the meteorological monitoring mechanism 2 to fly into the air to monitor the low-altitude meteorology. After the monitoring is completed, the drone 1 drives the monitoring mechanism 2 back to the ground. When the drone 1 is parked and the ground where it is parked is not flat enough, when the support member 5 touches the ground, the connecting seat 53 on the support pad 51 will rotate around the lower connecting ball 42, and at the same time, the upper connecting ball 42 will also rotate within the leg 11, thereby adjusting the angle of the support pad 51 so that the drone 1 can be parked on the ground more stably.
[0036] If the drone 1 tilts during parking, at this time, the air pump 6 will be turned on. The air pump 6 will send gas through the four-way connector 61 into multiple hoses 62, and then through the hoses 62 into the airbag 31 through the air inlet pipe 33. The airbag 31 will bulge, so that it can support the drone 1 when it tilts and provide a certain degree of buffering to protect the drone 1 and the monitoring mechanism 2 connected thereto.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
