[0002] With the rapid development of UAV technology, UAVs have been widely used in various industries. In the actual application of industrial UAVs, in order to improve the commuting efficiency of UAVs and reduce manual operation, UAV automatic airports have emerged as the times require. UAV automatic airports are divided into battery replacement type and charging type. The battery replacement type is used for scenarios with short operation intervals and high frequencies, and the charging type is used for scenarios with lower requirements for operation intervals and low-frequency regular inspections.

[0003] Compared with the charging type automatic airport, the battery replacement type automatic airport has a higher technical threshold, requires a high-precision robotic arm to replace the battery of the UAV, and has higher requirements for the movement path and repetition accuracy. Usually, a battery compartment is arranged in the charging type automatic airport, and this battery compartment serves as a placement, storage and charging structure for the UAV battery; at present, most of the battery compartments are open bench structures, usually composed of support beams and bench plates. Operators place the UAV battery on the bench plate to perform charging operations. It can be seen that the existing battery compartment does not have a stable structure and has poor auxiliary positioning ability. When multiple UAV batteries are carried on the existing battery compartment, it is difficult to ensure the stability of the overall structure; moreover, since the existing battery compartment stores the batteries in a closely arranged manner, its dredging and heat dissipation ability is poor, thus affecting the reliability of the battery compartment. Summary of the Utility Model
