Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mobile vehicles carrying unmanned aerial vehicles, and particularly relates to a mobile vehicle carrying unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Art

[0002] A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle controlled by a radio remote control device or a program-controlled device. It offers advantages such as maneuverability, rapid response, unmanned flight, and low operational requirements. Drones are now becoming increasingly practical, enabling real-time image transmission and high-risk area detection. They are widely used in firefighting, military, transportation, policing, exploration, and meteorology, enabling patrol photography and surveillance of designated areas. The most widely used in the civilian sector are agricultural multi-rotor drones. Existing agricultural multi-rotor drones are primarily used for real-time image monitoring, crop spraying, small item delivery, and outdoor lighting. For outdoor use, large drones are typically combined with mobile vehicles to load, transport, and power the drone. However, due to current technical limitations, drones cannot be automatically and accurately parked inside mobile vehicles. These vehicles require personnel to adjust them, or require a vehicle with significantly larger space than the drone itself.

[0003] Therefore, the research purpose of this utility model is to design a mobile vehicle that can provide a parking platform outside the vehicle body and automatically adjust the parking angle of the drone so that the drone can be easily moved into the vehicle body for storage, and can also provide power supply for the drone. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a mobile vehicle equipped with a drone, which can effectively solve the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] A mobile vehicle carrying a drone, comprising:

[0007] The mobile vehicle body comprises a front portion and a compartment fixedly connected at the front and rear ends, wherein the compartment is provided with a receiving cavity for carrying the drone, and a corresponding opening and closing door is provided at the rear side of the compartment;

[0008] The moving mechanism comprises an outer frame track fixedly installed in the carriage and a moving platform that can be drawn out and arranged on the outer frame track;

[0009] A rotating platform, rotatably mounted on the mobile platform, for parking the drone;

[0010] The correction mechanism includes a power component and a reset sensing component for driving the rotating platform to rotate. The reset sensing component includes at least one magnetic sensor installed on the mobile platform and an electromagnet installed on the front side of the drone. After the magnetic sensor senses the magnetic force of the electromagnet, it electrically connects to the power component to drive the rotating platform to rotate to a set stroke.

[0011] The mobile platform is provided with an arc-shaped through hole coaxially arranged with the rotating platform. The power assembly includes a power cylinder hingedly mounted under the mobile platform. The piston rod of the power cylinder is connected to the mobile platform through a connecting seat fixedly mounted under the rotating platform, that is, one end of the connecting seat is fixed under the mobile platform, and the other end passes through the arc-shaped through hole and is hinged to the piston rod of the power cylinder.

[0012] A micro switch for electrically connecting to the electromagnet and a small power supply is provided at the bottom of the support frame of the drone, and the electromagnet and the small power supply are both installed on the drone; when the drone is reset and parked on the rotating platform, the micro switch is pressed and triggered to connect the electromagnet and the small power supply, the electromagnet is energized and magnetized, and the magnetic sensor senses the magnetic value of the electromagnet and thereby regulates the extension or retraction of the power cylinder to set the stroke.

[0013] A corresponding power-off delay relay is also installed on the connection circuit between the electromagnet and the small power supply. After the power is on for a period of time S1, the electromagnet is powered off.

[0014] The reset sensing component includes three magnetic sensors arranged at intervals, and the magnetic sensors are distributed at intervals along the concentric arcs of the rotating platform.

[0015] A telescopic oil cylinder for driving the displacement of the mobile platform is fixedly installed transversely below the outer frame track, and a piston rod of the telescopic oil cylinder is connected to the mobile platform.

[0016] The outer side of the mobile platform that is not connected to the outer frame track can be hingedly provided with a corresponding telescopic support rod. After the mobile platform is pulled outward and into place, the telescopic support rod is rotated and upright to support the mobile platform.

[0017] A tethered power supply box for charging the drone is fixedly installed below the mobile platform, and a power storage device that can be used to charge the drone or external equipment is provided at the front end of the compartment of the mobile vehicle.

[0018] Advantages of this utility model:

[0019] 1) The utility model is provided with a corresponding mobile platform in the compartment of the mobile body which can be pulled out through the outer frame track, and then the mobile platform can be pushed out of the mobile body, thereby providing a larger space for parking the UAV and avoiding the space limitation of the mobile body, and a corresponding rotating platform is rotatably installed on the mobile platform, and corresponding magnetic sensors and electromagnets are respectively installed on the rotating platform and the UAV. After the UAV is parked, the magnetic force of the electromagnet is sensed by the magnetic sensor to thereby adjust the extension or retraction stroke of the power cylinder, wherein the moving stroke of the magnetic force can be obtained through experiments, and then the rotation angle of the rotating platform is controlled to rotate the UAV to the set position, that is, the narrow side faces the vehicle body, and then the UAV is accurately parked in the vehicle body by resetting the mobile platform. The control is fast, accurate and automatic, and can effectively prevent the UAV from being stuck in the vehicle body.

[0020] 2) The utility model installs a micro switch for electrically connecting the electromagnet and the small power supply at the bottom of the support frame of the drone. When the drone is parked on the rotating platform, the support frame abuts the rotating platform and triggers the micro switch to connect the electromagnet and the small power supply, so that the electromagnet is energized and magnetized, which is convenient for regulating the induction. The electromagnet is powered off when the drone is flying, which can save energy and avoid the adverse effects of the electromagnet setting on the drone flight. Furthermore, a corresponding power-off delay relay is installed on the connection circuit between the electromagnet and the small power supply. After the power is on for a period of S1, the electromagnet can be powered off, further saving energy consumption and improving the practical effect of the utility model.

[0021] 3) The present invention provides three spaced magnetic sensors that are spaced apart along concentric arcs of the rotating platform, thereby widening the sensing coverage area and improving the accuracy of the drone's position adjustment and correction. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
