Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of logistics UAVs, in particular to a low-altitude logistics UAV. Background Art

[0002] In short, low-altitude logistics refers to a new type of logistics method that uses drones and other aircraft to carry out logistics distribution at low altitudes (usually referring to the airspace below 3,000 meters from the ground). As the main executor of low-altitude logistics, low-altitude logistics drones are gradually changing the traditional logistics landscape. Drones can avoid traffic jams, reach destinations quickly, and greatly shorten delivery time.

[0003] Usually, the logistics cargo box size of logistics drones is fixed, which makes it impossible to transport logistics of different sizes. When the transported items do not match the size of the logistics cargo box, the supporting drone needs to be replaced, which is inconvenient to use. Therefore, a low-altitude logistics drone is proposed to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

[0007] The protective structure includes a connecting ring, a connecting ring is movably installed inside the fixed ring, a socket is opened on the outside of the connecting ring, a loading box is fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting ring, a sealed door is provided on the front of the loading box, and a smart lock is provided on the front of the sealed door.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the connecting ring extends to the inside of the fixing ring, and the electric telescopic rod passes through the fixing ring and extends to the outside of the fixing ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting rod passes through the fixing ring and is movably connected to the fixing ring, and the movable plate is located inside the fixing ring.

[0010] Furthermore, the insertion rod passes through the socket and is movably connected to the socket.

[0011] Furthermore, the propellers are respectively located on the front, back, left and right sides of the drone body.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting plate is located outside the fixing ring, a card slot is provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring, a card block is provided outside the connecting ring, and the card block is engaged with the card slot.

[0013] Compared with the existing technology, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] For this low-altitude logistics drone, when the electric telescopic rod drives the connecting plate to move, the connecting rod drives the movable plate to move, the plug rod can be withdrawn from the socket, and then the connecting ring can be withdrawn from the fixed ring, so that loading boxes of different sizes can be easily replaced, and the transported goods can be placed inside the loading box, which is more convenient to take out through the smart lock.

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] In the first embodiment, Figure 1In the present invention, a low-altitude logistics UAV includes a UAV body 1, a propeller 2 is arranged on the outside of the UAV body 1, a connecting structure 3 is arranged at the bottom of the UAV body 1, and a protective structure 4 is arranged at the bottom of the connecting structure 3.

[0021] The propeller 2 rotates to drive the drone body 1 to fly at low altitude. The loading box 403 is connected to the drone body 1 through the connecting structure 3, and the loading box 403 can also be kept stable when the drone body 1 is flying.

[0022] In the second embodiment, Figure 2 In the figure, the connection structure 3 includes a fixing ring 301, the fixing ring 301 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body 1, the electric telescopic rod 302 is fixedly installed inside the fixing ring 301, the electric telescopic rod 302 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting plate 303, the connecting rod 304 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting plate 303, the movable plate 305 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting rod 304, and the plug rod 306 is fixedly installed on the outside of the movable plate 305.

[0023] When connecting the connecting ring 401 to the fixing ring 301, the plug hole 402 and the plug rod 306 can be accurately aligned by engaging the external block of the connecting ring 401 with the internal groove of the fixing ring 301, which facilitates subsequent connection.

[0024] Example 3, in Figure 3 In the figure, the protective structure 4 includes a connecting ring 401, the connecting ring 401 is movably installed inside the fixed ring 301, a socket 402 is provided on the outside of the connecting ring 401, a loading box 403 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting ring 401, a sealing door 404 is provided on the front of the loading box 403, and a smart lock 405 is provided on the front of the sealing door 404.

[0025] The sealing door 404 seals the loading box 403 , and the smart lock 405 protects the loading box 403 from theft.

[0026] To sum up, in this low-altitude logistics drone, when the electric telescopic rod 302 drives the connecting plate 303 to move, the connecting rod 304 drives the movable plate 305 to move, and the insertion rod 306 can be withdrawn from the socket 402, and then the connecting ring 401 can be withdrawn from the fixed ring 301, so that loading boxes 403 of different sizes can be easily replaced, and the transported goods can be placed inside the loading box 403, which is more convenient to take out through the smart lock 405. This solves the problem that the logistics cargo box size of conventional logistics drones is fixed, resulting in the logistics cargo box being unable to transport logistics of different sizes. When the transported items do not match the size of the logistics cargo box, it is necessary to replace the drone used with it, which is inconvenient to use.
