[0033] Among them, the locking mechanism 11 includes an electric push rod 1101, a horizontal plate 1102 and a locking block 1103. The upper surface of the electric push rod 1101 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1, the bottom end of the electric push rod 1101 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the horizontal plate 1102, the bottom of the horizontal plate 1102 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the locking block 1103, and the surface of the locking block 1103 is in contact with the inner wall of the locking groove 10.

[0034] A retaining ring 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the tee pipe 12, and a sealing ring 19 is fitted on the left side of the threaded barrel 13, the right side of the retaining ring 18, the left side of the main box 2 and the surface of the tee pipe 12. The sealing ring 19 can seal the connection between the tee pipe 12 and the circular hole 15 or the connecting column between the tee pipe 12 and the threaded barrel 13.

[0035] Limit slots 20 are provided on both the left and right sides of the horizontal plate 1102. A limit post 21 is fitted to the inner wall of the limit slot 20.

[0040] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: First, the medicine storage box is fixed on the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle through the mounting plate 1. Then, the water pump on the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle is connected to the liquid outlet pipe 3 through the pipe joint 4. At this time, through the water pump and the liquid outlet pipe 3, the pesticide in the medicine storage box can be pumped out and sprayed through the nozzle on the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle. The pesticide can be added into the medicine storage box through the liquid inlet pipe 16, and the liquid inlet pipe 16 can be sealed through the second sealing plug 17.

[0041] When changing the capacity of the medicine storage box, first, the electric push rod 1101 is used to make the locking block 1103 on the cross plate 1102 separate from the locking groove 10. Then, the number of the auxiliary boxes 7 on the left side of the main box 2 is changed, and the T-shaped groove 9 on the auxiliary box 7 is made to contact the T-shaped column 6. Then, the locking groove 10 is aligned with the locking block 1103, and through the electric push rod 1101, the locking block 1103 is inserted into the locking groove 10. At this time, through the cooperation of the locking block 1103, the locking groove 10, the T-shaped column 6 and the T-shaped groove 9, the auxiliary box 7 can be fixed on the left side of the main box 2. At the same time, the main box 2 and the auxiliary box 7 can be communicated through the three-way pipe 12 and the round hole 15, and the adjacent auxiliary boxes 7 can be communicated through the three-way pipe 12 and the threaded cylinder 13. Then, the first sealing plug 14 is screwed into the leftmost threaded cylinder 13. At this time, through the first sealing plug 14, the liquid medicine in the main box 2 and the auxiliary box 7 cannot be discharged through the leftmost three-way pipe 12.

[0042] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model. The structures, devices and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present utility model, unless otherwise specified and limited, are implemented according to the conventional means in this field.
