Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle pods, and in particular to a stable pod for unmanned aerial vehicle aerial survey. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of drone technology, drones are increasingly being used in aerial surveys. However, traditional drones suffer from issues such as poor stability and image jitter during surveys, which impact the accuracy and quality of the data. Therefore, developing a stabilized drone pod for aerial surveys that provides a stable shooting environment is crucial.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN220948608U discloses a stable pod for drone aerial surveys. It includes a pod, a suspension plate fixedly connected to both sides of the pod, and the suspension plate fixedly connected to a mounting platform; a support mechanism comprising four support arms fixedly connected to the suspension plate, a vertical pole slidably connected within the support arms, a through-hole formed on the underside of the vertical pole, a cylindrical pin inserted into the through-hole, and a landing plate rotatably connected to the cylindrical pin; and a shock-absorbing mechanism for reducing shock during drone landing. The landing plate is provided so that when the drone lands, the landing plate first contacts the ground. The rotating design of the landing plate enables the drone to land in complex terrain. The four support arms and the vertical pole enhance the stability of the drone after landing, preventing the pod from directly colliding with the ground and avoiding damage to internal components caused by the impact of landing.
[0004] Although the device in the above-mentioned document can prevent collision with the ground, the device has a relatively simple structure, the direction adjustment is still inconvenient, it is not flexible enough to use, and the stability is insufficient relying solely on the support legs. In addition, the connection operation between the device and the drone is not convenient enough, which adds a burden to the user and reduces the practicality of the device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a stable pod for UAV aerial survey, which can effectively solve the above problems.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0007] A stable pod for drone aerial survey, comprising a base, a rotating device fixedly connected to the lower end of the base, a pod fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating device, a connector fixedly connected to the upper end of the base, and a snap device fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector;
[0008] The rotating device includes an upper connecting plate, the upper end of which is movably connected to the lower end of the base;
[0009] The buckle device includes a slide rod, and both ends of the slide rod are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector.
[0010] Preferably, slots are provided on both sides of the connector.
[0011] Preferably, the lower end of the upper connecting plate is fixedly connected to an electric rotating machine.
[0012] Preferably, the rear end of the upper connecting plate is fixedly connected to a pod frame, and the lower end of the pod frame is fixedly connected to two lower connecting plates.

[0016] Preferably, the lower end of the sliding plate is fixedly connected to a baffle, and the baffle is fixedly connected to a manual rod.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. The utility model provides a stable pod for drone aerial survey. The device is equipped with a rotating device, which can be used to accurately control the angle of the pod. Both the heading angle and the pitch angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the shooting requirements. During the flight of the drone, due to the influence of external factors such as wind, the pod may shake and become unstable. The connection method equipped with rubber shock-absorbing screws can effectively absorb and reduce these vibrations, ensuring the stability of the pod. The rubber shock-absorbing screws not only have a shock-absorbing effect, but also can protect the connection between the pod and the drone body to a certain extent, while facilitating installation and maintenance. Therefore, the drone pod equipped with a rotating device and rubber shock-absorbing screws can better adapt to different flight environments and mission requirements, effectively improving the practical value of the equipment. The electric rotating machine allows the pod to rotate horizontally, the pod frame can stably support the pod, and the lower connecting plate is movably connected to allow the pod to rotate longitudinally, thereby flexibly adjusting the pod angle. In addition, the fixing frame is connected to the fixing plate by rubber shock-absorbing screws, which fixes it tightly and makes the structure more stable.
[0019] 2. The present invention provides a stable pod for drone aerial survey. The device is equipped with a snap-on device. The device makes the pod installation and removal process simple and quick. Operators do not need to use complex tools or perform tedious steps. They can simply press the snap-on device to complete the installation or removal of the pod. This greatly saves time and energy and improves work efficiency. When the drone pod fails or needs to be replaced, the spring snap-on device can easily remove the pod from the drone body for repair or replacement. This simplifies the maintenance and overhaul process, reduces maintenance costs, and improves the maintainability of the equipment. The spring snap-on device is suitable for drone pods of various models and specifications. Whether it is a small drone or a large drone, the size and shape of the spring snap-on device can be adjusted to meet different connection requirements, expanding the applicability of the equipment. The sliding plate can slide through the sliding rod, thereby driving the insertion rod to extend and retract, facilitating the connection with the corresponding snap-on device on the drone base. The sliding rod is provided with a spring. Manually pressing the manual lever causes the baffle to close with the sliding plate. The rebound of the spring causes the sliding plate to return to its original position, causing the insertion rod to extend and retract, facilitating the engagement. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, a stable pod for drone aerial survey includes a base 1, and a rotating device 2 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the base 1. The angle of the pod can be accurately controlled by using this device. Both the heading angle and the pitch angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the shooting requirements. During the flight of the drone, due to the influence of external factors such as wind, the pod may shake and become unstable. The connection method equipped with rubber shock-absorbing screws can effectively absorb and reduce these vibrations to ensure the stability of the pod. The rubber shock-absorbing screws not only have a shock-absorbing effect, but also can protect the connection between the pod and the drone body to a certain extent, and are easy to install and maintain. Therefore, the drone pod equipped with a rotating device and rubber shock-absorbing screws can better adapt to different flight environments and mission requirements, and effectively improve the practical value of the equipment. The lower end of the rotating device 2 is fixedly connected to the pod 3. The upper end of the base 1 is fixedly connected to a connector 4, and the inner wall of the connector 4 is fixedly connected to a snap device 5. The use of this device can make the pod loading and unloading process simple and quick. The operator does not need to use complicated tools or perform tedious steps. The pod can be installed or removed by simply pressing the snap, which greatly saves time and energy and improves work efficiency. When the drone pod fails or parts need to be replaced, the spring snap component can easily remove the pod from the drone body for repair or replacement, which simplifies the maintenance and inspection process, reduces maintenance costs, and improves the maintainability of the equipment. The spring snap component is suitable for drone pods of various models and specifications. Whether it is a small drone or a large drone, the size and shape of the spring snap component can be adjusted to meet different connection requirements, thereby improving the scope of application of the equipment.
[0028] The rotating device 2 includes an upper connecting plate 21, the upper end of which is movably connected to the lower end of the base 1 for easy adjustment;
[0029] The snap-fit device 5 includes a slide bar 51, both ends of which are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector 4, making assembly and disassembly easy.
[0030] Slots are formed on both sides of the connector 4 .

The electric rotating machine 22 allows the pod to rotate horizontally, the pod frame 23 can stably support the pod, and the lower connecting plate 24 is movably connected to allow the pod to rotate longitudinally, thereby flexibly adjusting the pod angle. In addition, the fixing frame 25 is connected to the fixing plate 27 by rubber shock-absorbing screws 26, which fixes it tightly and makes the structure more stable.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the slide bar 51 is slidably connected with a spring 52, and both ends of the spring 52 are fixedly connected with a sliding plate 53. One side of the sliding plate 53 is fixedly connected with two plug rods 54, and the lower end of the sliding plate 53 is fixedly connected with a baffle 55, and the baffle 55 is fixedly connected with a manual rod 56. The slide bar 51 allows the slide plate 53 to slide, thereby driving the plug rod 54 to retract and retract, which is convenient for connecting with the corresponding buckle of the drone base. A spring 52 is provided on the slide bar 51, and the manual rod 56 is manually pressed to cause the baffle 55 to close together with the slide plate 53. The slide plate 53 is reset by using the rebound of the spring 52, which causes the plug rod 54 to extend for easy engagement.
[0033] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: through the rotating device 2, the electric rotating machine 22 adjusts the horizontal direction of the pod frame 23, and through the lower connecting plate 24, the movable connection is made, so that the fixing frame 25 can rotate longitudinally, thereby adjusting the angle of the pod 3, and the fixing plate 27 is connected to the fixing frame 25 by using the rubber shock-absorbing screw 26, which is tightly fixed and has a stable structure.
