The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation methods.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Example 1: Combination Figure 1-4 This embodiment discloses a split drone football, which aims to solve the problem of cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive disassembly and assembly of drones in existing drone footballs and improve user experience.

[0032] The split drone football includes a protective shell with a spherical basket structure. The protective shell consists of an upper shell 1 and a lower shell 2 that are detachably connected. The outer contours of the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 are both hemispherical structures, and a number of hollow through holes are provided throughout the body. It is manufactured by injection molding and can effectively protect the internal structure while being lightweight.

[0033] A drone 4 is provided inside the protective shell. The drone 4 serves as a flight drive device, which can drive the protective shell to perform flight activities under the control of the operator. As for the drone 4, it is an existing technology, and its specific structure and working principle will not be described here. Those skilled in the art can select and implement it from the existing technology according to actual operating conditions.

[0034] Further, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a support beam 3 is provided on the inner side of the lower housing 2, with both ends of the support beam 3 fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the lower housing 2 (in this embodiment, the support beam 3 and the lower housing 2 are an integral structure). A "U"-shaped bracket 5 is provided at the center of the support beam 3, which is used to mount the main body of the drone 4 and the battery module 7. The support beam 3 is composed of two sections of support rods located on the left and right sides of the bracket 5. The longitudinal cross-section of the support beam 3 gradually decreases from the inside to the outside to reduce weight and optimize aerodynamic performance.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the top of the bracket 5 has a card slot 51, and the inner side wall of the card slot 51 is provided with an abutting flange. In this embodiment, the abutting flange adopts a first abutting flange 52 that is an integral structure with the bracket 5. The two first abutting flanges 52 are located at the opening of the card slot 51, so that the inner contour of the card slot 51 constitutes an inverted "T"-shaped slot structure that adapts to the outer contour of the drone 4 body. Figure 4After assembly, the drone 4 is fixed in the card slot 51, and a battery module 7 is provided between the bottom of the drone 4 and the bracket 5. The battery module 7 is detachably electrically connected to the main body of the drone 4.

[0036] Specifically, a suction cup support 71 is provided between the battery module 7 and the main body of the drone 4. The rod structure at the bottom of the suction cup support 71 is connected and fixed to the battery module 7, and the suction cup structure at the top of the suction cup support 71 is connected to the main body of the drone 4. The power output end of the battery module 7 is electrically connected to the power supply port of the drone 4 via a cable. To improve the installation stability of the battery module 7, an elastic ring 72 is provided on the outer wall of the battery module 7. The elastic ring 72 adopts a rubber ring structure. The elastic ring 72 elastically abuts between the inner wall of the bracket 5 and the side wall of the battery module 7. This not only provides a shock-absorbing effect during shaking, but also increases the abutting friction between the battery module 7 and the bracket 5, reducing the risk of falling off. When in use, first fix the battery module 7 to the bottom of the drone 4, then insert the main body of the drone 4 into the card slot 51, and apply appropriate pressure to make the open side of the bracket 5 deform appropriately. As the drone 4 is plugged into place, the open side of the bracket 5 is deformed and reset to wrap and clamp the outer contour of the main body of the drone 4, so that the drone 4 has sufficient assembly stability.

[0037] Furthermore, the drone 4 has four arms equipped with propellers. Auxiliary rods 6 are connected between the outer ends of the arms and the inner sidewalls of the lower housing 2. The inner sidewalls of the auxiliary rods 6 are removably connected to the outer ends of the arms of the drone 4. During use, the auxiliary rods 6 are first connected to the outer ends of the arms of the drone 4. After the main body of the drone 4 is installed in the slots 51, the outer ends of the auxiliary rods 6 can be properly adjusted to tightly contact the inner sidewalls of the lower housing 2, further securing and supporting the structure of the drone 4.

[0038] Example 2: Based on Example 1, Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the abutment flange adopts a second abutment flange 53 which is a split structure with the bracket 5. The second abutment flange 53 is in an "L"-shaped structure, and a tensioning bolt 54 is provided on its outer wall. The tensioning bolt 54 is arranged horizontally and passes through the side wall of the bracket 5 with a gap. The tensioning bolt 54 is located on the outer side of the bracket 5 and is threadedly connected to the nut. By rotating the nut forward and backward, the inward and outward displacement of the second abutment flange 53 can be achieved, that is, the clamping strength can be properly controlled.

[0039] Furthermore, in order to improve the clamping stability and protect the outer structure of the drone 4 , an elastic pad 55 is provided between the abutting flange and the inner side wall of the bracket 5 .

[0040] In another embodiment, Figure 6As shown, in order to improve the working stability of the battery module 7 and avoid excessive heating, a heat dissipation hole 56 is provided at the bottom of the bracket 5. Several square heat dissipation holes 56 are evenly distributed in an array at the bottom of the bracket 5 and pass through the bottom of the bracket 5.

[0041] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
