Description
Technical Field

[0002] There are some multi-rotor firefighting drones on the market, but their payload capacity is small and they can only carry a few fire-fighting bombs. They have a certain ability to extinguish fires in the early stages of buildings, but for fires in super-high-rise buildings, it is difficult for fire trucks / firefighting drones to arrive at the fire station to carry out firefighting work in the early stages of the fire. When the fire is large, their actual firefighting significance is not great.
[0003] Therefore, the use of ducted UAVs can improve the load capacity and achieve the purpose of high-altitude firefighting. However, due to the differences in the structure of ducted UAVs and rotary-wing UAVs, the lifting mechanism used in the existing technology to support rotary-wing UAVs cannot be directly used to support ducted UAVs.

When the driving member is extended, the extended end exerts force on the second support member. At this time, using the lever principle, the sliding end of the second support member will slide relative to the support base, and the sliding direction is to slide toward the first support member. At the same time, due to the rotational connection between the first support member and the second support member, the first support member is synchronously pushed to slide, the first support member slides toward the second support member and the second support member slides toward the first support member, and the lifting mechanism is in an ascending state; when the driving member is retracted, it can push the first support member to slide away from the second support member and push the second support member to slide away from the first support member, and the lifting mechanism is in a descending state, thereby realizing the ascending or descending state of the lifting mechanism; in addition, the driving member is arranged in the gap between the adjacent first support arm and the second support arm, reducing the occupied volume and improving space utilization.

That is, when the support frame 2 slides relative to the support base 1, the support frame 2 can rise or fall, thereby also changing the height position of the support platform 4. The support platform 4 is used to support the ducted UAV, realizing the lifting and lowering function of the ducted UAV, and a plurality of through holes 42 are provided on the support platform 4. Since the ducted UAV will generate vertical airflow when starting or landing, by providing a plurality of through holes 42, the airflow passes through the through holes 42, avoiding the airflow blowing onto the support platform 4 and generating convection with the ducted UAV, thereby improving the stability of the ducted UAV startup and landing, and also improving the safety.

[0040] Optionally, the shape of the through holes 42 is not limited, and can be a long strip, or a circle, etc.; and the arrangement of the through holes 42 is also not limited. While meeting the supporting force of the supporting platform 4, the through holes 42 can be arranged more densely to increase the amount of airflow.
[0041] Optionally, in some cases, both sides of one end where the support frame 2 is connected to the support base 1 can slide; both sides of one end where the support frame 2 is connected to the support platform 4 can slide.

During the sliding process, the corresponding height of the support platform 4 is also adjusted, and the height of the support platform 4 will also change, thereby achieving the purpose of supporting the ducted UAV and rising or falling.
[0043] Optionally, two support assemblies may be provided, and of course, more support assemblies may also be provided.
[0044] Optionally, the first support member 21 and the support base 1 can be rotatably connected by a latch, and the second support member 22 and the support platform 4 can be connected by a latch.
[0045] Optionally, the connection relationship between the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 and the support base 1 and the support platform 4 respectively can be reversed, that is, one end of the first support member 21 can be slidingly connected to the support base 1, and one end of the second support member 22 can be rotatably connected to the support base 1.
[0046] Optionally, the intersection of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 may also be connected by a latch.
[0047] Optionally, when the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 slide in directions away from each other, the lifting mechanism is in a descending state, and when the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 slide toward each other, the lifting mechanism is in an ascending state; that is, when the sliding end of the first support member 21 slides toward the end of the second support member 22 that is rotatably connected to the support platform 4, the lifting mechanism is in an ascending state; when the sliding end of the second support member 22 slides toward the end of the first support member 21 that is rotatably connected to the support base 1, the lifting mechanism is also in an ascending state.
[0048] Optionally, in the vertical direction, one end of the first support member 21 rotatably connected to the support base 1 and one end of the second support member 22 rotatably connected to the support platform 4 are the same end; one end of the first support member 21 slidably connected to the support base 1 and one end of the second support base 1 and the support platform 4 are the same end, so that the support platform 4 can be more stable when rising or falling, and the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 can synchronously control the rise or fall of the support platform 4.
[0049] like Figure 1 and 5 As shown, as an embodiment, the first support member 21 includes two first support arms 211, and the second support member 22 includes two second support arms 221. The two first support arms 211 are located between the two second support arms 221, thereby realizing a cross connection between the first support member 21 and the second support member 22, and also avoiding the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 from interfering with each other during the sliding process; the support base 1 is provided with a plurality of through areas, the number of which corresponds to the number of support assemblies; the length of the through area is greater than the length of the first support arm 211 and the second support arm 221, so that when the lifting mechanism is in the lowered state, the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 can be completely located in the through area, avoiding interference of the support base 1 with the first support member 21 and the second support member 22, and also avoiding the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 protruding from the support base 1, so that the height occupied by the lifting mechanism in the lowered state is equal to the thickness of the support base 1, which can reduce the space occupied by the lifting mechanism in the lowered state, further improve space utilization, and avoid affecting the layout of other modules.
[0050] Optionally, the direction of the through area is also the length direction of the support platform 4 and the support base 1 , that is, the sliding direction of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 .
[0051] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, as an embodiment, the support base 1 includes a plurality of connecting beams 12, which are arranged parallel to each other and extend along the length direction of the support base 1. Two adjacent connecting beams 12 are respectively provided with first grooves 11 with openings facing each other, and a roller 3 is provided at one end of the second support arm 221. The roller 3 can slide along the first groove 11, so that the second support member 22 can slide relative to the support base 1, and the height of the support platform 4 is also adjusted.
[0052] Optionally, in some cases, the first groove 11 and the roller 3 may also be configured in the form of a slideway and a slider.
[0053] Optionally, the support base 1 includes three connecting beams 12, two of which are located at the outermost sides and serve as the frame of the support base 1, and the other connecting beam 12 is located in the middle position, separating the support base 1 into two through areas, wherein the connecting beam 12 located in the middle position is provided with first grooves 11 on both sides of the two connecting beams 12 facing the outermost sides, so that the two rollers 3 connected to the same second support member 22 can slide in two different first grooves 11 respectively.
[0054] Optionally, the two first support arms 211 are connected by a connecting plate, thereby improving the structural stability of the first support member 21, and the first support arm 211 and the connecting plate can be connected by welding or integral molding; the two second support arms 221 are connected by a connecting plate, thereby improving the structural stability of the second support member 22, and the second support arm 221 and the connecting plate can be connected by welding or integral molding.
[0055] Optionally, both ends of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 include two connecting plates.
[0056] Optionally, the thickness of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 does not exceed the thickness of the support base 1 , so that the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 are prevented from protruding from the support base 1 when the lifting mechanism is in the descending state.
[0057] Optionally, the support base 1 may further include four connecting beams 12 , that is, the two middle connecting beams 12 may be welded together as a whole, and the first groove 11 is provided in a direction toward the other two connecting beams 12 .
[0058] Optionally, the second support arm 221 may be connected to the two rollers 3 via a connecting shaft.
[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, as an embodiment, the support platform 4 is provided with a support beam, the support beam is arranged toward the support base 1, the support beam extends along the length direction of the support platform 4, and the support beam is provided with a second groove 41 in the direction of the frame of the support platform 4. The two frames in the length direction of the support platform 4 are also provided with a second groove 41 in the direction of the support beam. A roller 3 is provided at one end of the first support arm 211, and the roller 3 can slide along the second groove 41, so that the first support member 21 can slide relative to the support platform 4, and the height of the support platform 4 is also adjusted.
[0060] Optionally, the first support arm 211 may be connected to the two rollers 3 via a connecting shaft.
[0061] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, as an embodiment, a driving member 5 is provided between the adjacent first support arm 211 and the second support arm 221, one end of the driving member 5 is connected to the first support member 21, and the other end is connected to the second support member 22, and the connection position is higher than the position where the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 are rotatably connected; the driving member 5 has a telescopic stroke, which is used to drive the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 to slide relative to the support platform 4 and the support base 1 respectively. When the driving member 5 is extended, the extended end applies force to the second support member 22. At this time, using the principle of leverage, the sliding end of the second support member 22 will slide relative to the support base 1, and the sliding direction is to slide toward the first support member 21, and at the same time When the first support member 21 is rotated and connected to the second support member 22, the first support member 21 is pushed to slide synchronously, the first support member 21 slides toward the second support member 22 and the second support member 22 slides toward the first support member 21, and the lifting mechanism is in an ascending state; when the driving member 5 contracts, it can push the first support member 21 to slide away from the second support member 22 and push the second support member 22 to slide away from the first support member 21, and the lifting mechanism is in a descending state, thereby realizing the ascending or descending state of the lifting mechanism; in addition, the driving member 5 is arranged in the gap between the adjacent first support arm 211 and the second support arm 221, which reduces the occupied volume and improves space utilization.
[0062] Optionally, the end of the driving member 5 connected to the second support arm 221 is higher than the position where the first support arm 211 and the second support arm 221 are rotatably connected, so that the lever principle can be used to facilitate the driving member 5 to push the second support member 22 to slide.
[0063] Optionally, the driving member 5 can be a single-acting cylinder, and the single-acting cylinder is connected to the hydraulic system on the fire truck. The hydraulic system injects oil into the single-acting cylinder to extend the single-acting cylinder. Since the second support arm 221 is connected to one end of the cylinder through a connecting shaft, using the lever principle, when the cylinder is extended, the sliding end of the second support member 22 slides toward the first support member 21; of course, the driving member 5 can also be a complete hydraulic system to realize the rising or falling of the lifting mechanism through the hydraulic system.
[0064] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, as an embodiment, one end of the two driving members 5 connected to the same first support member 21 is coaxially arranged, so that the two driving members 5 can synchronously drive the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 to slide relative to the support platform 4 and the support base 1 respectively, and at the same time, it also improves the smoothness of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 during the sliding process, avoiding the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 from getting stuck.
[0065] like Figure 2As shown, as an embodiment, a limit member 6 is further provided between the adjacent first support arm 211 and the second support arm 221. The limit member 6 is coaxially connected to one end of the driving member 5, and when the driving member 5 is gradually extended, the second support member 22 slides toward the first support member 21, and one end of the first support member 21 slides toward the second support member 22. However, the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 must have a certain intersection angle to ensure the stability of the entire lifting mechanism. Therefore, when the first support member 21 and the second support member 22 slide to a certain position respectively, the driving member 5 can abut against the limit member 6, and the limit member 6 limits the driving member 5 from continuing to extend, thereby limiting the sliding position of the first support member 21 and the second support member 22, thereby meeting the stability of the lifting mechanism.
[0066] Optionally, the limit member 6 is coaxially connected to the end of the driving member 5 that can be extended, and can be connected by a connecting shaft. The limit member 6 can be fixed on one side of the second support arm 221, that is, the relative position of the limit member 6 and the second support arm 221 remains unchanged. When the driving member 5 is extended to the extreme position, the piston rod can abut against the limit member 6. At this time, the second support member 22 cannot continue to slide, which plays a limiting role.
