Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stable devices, in particular to a stable device for installing a radar on an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Art

[0002] An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), also known as an unmanned aircraft, is controlled by a radio remote control and its own programmable controller, or is operated completely or intermittently autonomously by an onboard computer. Compared to manned aircraft, drones are often better suited for tasks deemed too "dull, dirty, or dangerous." Drones can be categorized into military and civilian applications. In the military, drones are divided into reconnaissance and target drones. In the civilian sector, drones combined with industrial applications represent the true demand for drones. Applications in aerial photography, agriculture, plant protection, micro selfies, express delivery, disaster relief, wildlife observation, infectious disease monitoring, surveying and mapping, news reporting, power inspections, disaster relief, film and television production, and the creation of romance have greatly expanded the uses of drones. Developed countries are also actively expanding industrial applications and developing drone technology.

[0003] Radar, also known as "radiolocation," is an electronic device that uses electromagnetic waves to detect targets. Radar transmits electromagnetic waves to a target and receives the echoes, thereby obtaining information such as the distance from the target to the point of emission, the rate of change of distance (radial velocity), direction, and altitude.

[0004] However, some existing stabilization devices for mounting radars on drones lack rational structural design, resulting in cumbersome installation and removal processes. This not only increases the operator's workload and time costs, but can also damage the radar or drone during installation or removal. For example, some devices require multiple tools and multiple steps to install, making it difficult to quickly install or replace the radar in emergency situations such as field operations. Chinese patent publication number CN206618856U discloses a stabilization device for mounting radars, comprising a radar body and a first circular ring. The first circular ring is provided on the curved back surface of the radar body, a second circular ring is provided on one side of the first circular ring, and a mounting ring is provided on one side of the second circular ring. The mounting ring has four mounting holes. The four outer ends of the mounting ring are fixedly connected to curved support rods. The ends of the curved support rods, remote from the mounting ring, each extend through corresponding through holes and are connected to a fixing block. Fixing plates are fixedly installed on the outer sides of the four rear ends of the radar body. Four mounting plates are fixedly installed on the rear surface of the radar body, and four curved fixing rings are provided on one side of the first circular ring. The radar installation stabilization device has a relatively high structural stability, is convenient to install and relatively quick to disassemble compared to the existing technology, but its shortcoming is that in the above design, the first ring, the second ring and the installation ring cooperate with each other to make the three rings fixedly connected, and the first ring is fixed to the back of the radar. During actual installation, the operation is more cumbersome, the convenience is insufficient, and the installation efficiency still needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0025] See also Figure 1-5The present invention provides the following embodiments. A stable device for installing a radar on an unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a fixing plate 1 and a mounting mechanism 9. The bottom of the fixing plate 1 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 2. A fixing groove 5 is provided on the outer wall of the front end of the mounting plate 2. A hexagonal screw head 6 is rotatably provided inside the fixing groove 5. A mounting groove 13 is provided inside the lower surface of the mounting plate 2. A mounting block 14 is movably provided inside the mounting groove 13. A mounting mechanism 9 is provided on the top of the mounting block 14. The mounting mechanism 9 comprises a bidirectional screw 905, and one end of the bidirectional screw 905 is abutted against the hexagonal screw head 6 through a transmission rod. The outer wall of the mounting block 14 is fixedly connected. The outer wall of the bidirectional screw 905 is threadedly connected to the movable block 902. The upper end surface of the movable block 902 is movably provided with a cross bar 901. The bottom of the movable block 902 is fixedly connected to the transmission plate 906. The two transmission plates 906 are each provided with a limit slot 904 at the end close to each other. The limit blocks 903 are movably provided within the limit slots 904, and the limit blocks 903 are fixedly connected to the transmission plates 906. The bottom of the mounting block 14 is fixedly connected to the fixed block 3. The bottom of the fixed block 3 is mounted with the radar body 4 via a bracket. Preferably, the outer wall of the hexagonal screw head 6 is coated with an anti-rust coating.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, during use, when the radar body 4 needs to be installed, the mounting block 14 on the top of the radar body 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 13, and then the hexagonal screw head 6 is rotated by a tool. The rotation of the hexagonal screw head 6 drives the bidirectional screw 905 to rotate, and the rotation of the bidirectional screw 905 drives the two moving blocks 902 to move in a direction close to each other. The two moving blocks 902 move through the transmission plate 906 to drive the limit block 903 to move in the direction close to the limit groove 904 until the limit block 903 is inserted into the limit groove 904, thereby completing the fixation of the mounting block 14 and then completing the installation of the radar body 4. Similarly, the hexagonal screw head 6 is rotated in the opposite direction by a tool until the limit block 903 is disengaged from the limit groove 904, and then the radar body 4 is moved downward until the mounting block 14 is disengaged from the mounting groove 13, thereby completing the disassembly and assembly of the radar body 4. The operation is simple, convenient and efficient.

[0027] At both ends of the mounting plate 2, above the fixing groove 5, collars 10 are fixedly connected. A sleeve rod 12 is movably disposed within the collar 10. A connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve rod 12. An elastic cord 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 11. The bottom of the elastic cord 7 is fixedly connected to a support block 8, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 3. Preferably, the elastic cord 7 is made of a thermoplastic elastomer material, and the stretch ratio of the elastic cord 7 is 1.3.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, when in use, after the radar body 4 is installed, pick up the connecting plate 11 and insert the sleeve rod 12 into the sleeve ring 10. Through the cooperation of the sleeve ring 10, the sleeve rod 12 and the elastic rope 7, the fixing block 3 can be fixed, thereby improving the stability of the radar body 4 after installation. At the same time, before the radar body 4 needs to be disassembled and assembled, the sleeve rod 12 needs to be taken out of the sleeve ring 10 to ensure that the radar body 4 can be disassembled and assembled later.

[0029] The working principle of the stabilizing device for installing the drone-mounted radar of the present invention is as follows. When the radar body 4 needs to be installed, the mounting block 14 on the top of the radar body 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 13, and then the hexagonal screw head 6 is rotated by a tool. The rotation of the hexagonal screw head 6 drives the bidirectional screw 905 to rotate, and the rotation of the bidirectional screw 905 drives the two moving blocks 902 to move in a direction close to each other. The two moving blocks 902 move through the transmission plate 906 to drive the limit block 903 to move in a direction close to the limit groove 904 until the limit block 903 is inserted into the limit groove 904, thereby completing the fixing of the mounting block 14 and then completing the installation of the radar body 4. Similarly, the hexagonal screw head 6 is rotated in the opposite direction by a tool until the limit block 903 is released from The limiting groove 904 is disengaged, and then the radar body 4 is moved downward until the mounting block 14 is disengaged from the mounting groove 13, thereby completing the disassembly and assembly of the radar body 4. The operation is simple, convenient and the installation efficiency is high. Secondly, when the radar body 4 is installed, pick up the connecting plate 11 and insert the sleeve rod 12 into the sleeve ring 10. Through the mutual cooperation of the sleeve ring 10, the sleeve rod 12 and the elastic rope 7, the fixing block 3 can be fixed, thereby improving the stability of the radar body 4 after installation. At the same time, before the radar body 4 needs to be disassembled and assembled, the sleeve rod 12 needs to be removed from the sleeve ring 10 to ensure that the radar body 4 can be disassembled and assembled later.
