[0034] The present application provides a universal installation device for a drone airport, which provides a horizontal installation base surface for the drone airport through an airport support frame, and is connected to the ground through a first base with adjustable length and installation angle to adapt to installation surfaces of different terrains, thereby achieving universalization and eliminating the need for customized airport installation bases or concrete platforms, thereby reducing installation costs. In addition, there is no need to dig or fill the ground during installation, thereby greatly reducing the installation workload.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the universal installation device of the drone airport provided by this application includes an airport support frame 100, a first base 200 and a power supply and communication system 300 arranged on the airport support frame 100 (please refer to Figure 3 In the installed state, the upper end of the airport support frame 100 is horizontal and is fixedly connected to the drone airport component 500 (a finished product provided by the drone manufacturer). The first installation scenario (for example, Figure 1As shown, the airport support frame 100 is installed on a rugged mountain 700. The lower end of the airport support frame 100 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first base frame 240 of the first base 200, and each ground connecting plate 230 of the first base 200 is close to the ground and fixed to the ground by expansion bolts 600.

[0036] As an example, Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the airport support frame 100 includes an upper portion 110 , a lower portion 130 and a support portion 120 , and the upper portion 110 and the lower portion 130 are fixed to two ends of the support portion 120 respectively to form a support frame.

[0037] As an example, Figure 4 As shown, the upper portion 110 and the lower portion 130 are both ring structures formed by connecting multiple square tubes end to end, and the four corners are chamfered.

[0038] As an example, Figure 1 and 2 The support portion 120 includes a plurality of square tubes symmetrically arranged between the upper portion 110 and the lower portion 130 .

[0039] Preferably, the airport support frame 100 is made of stainless steel.

[0040] like Figure 1 、 Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the first base 200 includes a first base frame 240 symmetrically provided with multiple columns 210 and a first support leg 220 slidably connected to each column 210 . The lower end of the first support leg 220 is a pointed end and is rotatably connected to the ground connection plate 230 .

[0041] As an example, Figure 6 and 8 As shown, an omnidirectional ball connector 2301 is provided between the lower end of the first support leg 220 and the ground connection plate 230 to achieve relative rotation between the two, so that the relative position of the two during installation can match the terrain and ensure that the column 210 is in a vertical state. Figure 8 In the embodiment, the mounting holes at the four corners of the ground connection plate 230 are used to install expansion bolts.

[0042] As an embodiment, a plurality of first waist-shaped holes 2101 are spaced apart on the column 210, and a plurality of second waist-shaped holes 2201 are spaced apart on the first support leg 220. The first support leg is detachably connected to the column 210 via bolts passing through the corresponding waist-shaped holes in the columns, thereby enabling the two to slide relative to each other, achieving a telescopic function to adapt to different terrains. It should be noted that the relative displacement of each column and the corresponding first support leg is not affected by the other columns, thereby ensuring that the telescopic length of each first support leg is adapted to the ground height of its lower end, ultimately ensuring that the upper cross-section of the first base is a horizontal plane.

[0043] Preferably, the column 210 and the first supporting leg 220 are both angle steels (eg, galvanized angle steels), and waist-shaped holes are provided on the two right-angled sides of the column 210 and the first supporting leg 220, thereby increasing the connection strength between the two.

[0044] As an example, Figure 7 As shown, the upper end of the first base frame 240 is a ring structure formed by connecting multiple angle steels end to end.

[0045] When installing a drone airport in a rugged mountainous area, first install all the primary bases and secure the ground connection plate 230 to the ground using expansion bolts. Ensure the upper end surfaces of the primary bases are level by adjusting the height of all the columns relative to their corresponding primary support legs. Then, secure the airport support frame 100 to the primary bases, and finally, secure the drone airport assembly to the airport support frame 100.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, the power supply and communication system 300 includes at least one solar panel 330, at least one battery 310, and a charging control box 320. The charging control box 320 houses a charging controller and a gateway (e.g., a 4G or 5G wireless gateway). The outer surface of the charging control box 320 is equipped with a power supply port 3202, a network port 3203, and a network antenna 3201. The charging controller is connected to the solar panel 330 and the battery 310, respectively, to charge the battery 310 from the solar panel 330. The charging controller is also connected to the power supply port, allowing the battery 310 to supply power to the drone and electrical appliances within the drone airport. The gateway is connected to the network antenna 3201 and the network port 3203, respectively. The network port 3203 connects the gateway to the drone airport via an RG45 Gigabit Ethernet cable, while the network antenna 3201 enables communication between the gateway, the drone, and the remote operator.

[0047] As an example, Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the battery 310 is set in the frame of the airport support frame 100, and the charging control box 320 is fixed to the outer edge of the frame. The solar panel 330 is installed near the drone airport through its own bracket.

[0048] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, the universal installation device of the drone airport further includes a second base 400. The second base 400 includes a second base frame 410 and a plurality of second support legs 420 symmetrically fixed to the lower end of the second base frame 410. The second installation scenario (e.g. Figure 2As shown, when installed on loess geology 800, the lower end of the airport support frame 100 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second base frame 410, and the lower parts of all second support legs 420 (preferably the general length of the second support legs) are buried below the ground to ensure the stability of the second base. When burying the second base, use a spirit level to measure the level of the four sides.

[0049] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, a cross arm 430 is provided between adjacent second support legs 420. In the installed state, the cross arm 430 is located below the ground, thereby increasing the overall stability of the second base 400.

[0050] As an embodiment, the second base frame 410 is a ring structure formed by connecting a plurality of angle steels (eg, galvanized angle steels) end to end. The second support leg 420 is also an angle steel.

[0051] The universal installation device for the drone airport of this application can provide a standard installation bracket in different installation environments. The airport support frame can be directly installed on the airport installation base or concrete platform customized in the prior art, or it can be used in conjunction with a universal first base or second base to achieve installation in different installation scenarios. This application is also suitable for power supply and communication support in unconventional environments, and can provide solar power supply for the airport installation site and communication module accessories for areas with poor communication. Overall, this application has strong versatility and practicality, and provides convenience for the installation of drone airports.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above embodiments may be modified without departing from the scope and spirit of the present application.
