[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle with a variable lift structure, including a fuselage 3. A fixed base plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fuselage 3. Mounting slots 15 are provided on both sides of the fixed base plate 7. Mounting inserts 16 are slidably connected inside the mounting slots 15. The mounting inserts 16 are limitedly connected to the mounting slots 15 through a positioning mechanism. A mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting insert 16. Two support frames 6 are fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 8. A connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support frame 6. A buffer mechanism is provided below the connecting plate 4.

[0029] Preferably, a camera 14 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower end face of the fixed base plate 7, and multiple robotic arms 2 are connected to the body 3.

[0030] Preferably, each of the robotic arms 2 is connected to a propeller, and each of the robotic arms 2 is provided with a variable lift structure 1. The propeller is driven to rotate by a fuel engine. The variable lift structure 1 is prior art and has been disclosed in publication number CN206926816U. This application will not describe it in detail.

[0031] Preferably, the buffer mechanism includes a shock-absorbing plate 11 disposed below the connecting plate 4, and two slide rods 9, both of which penetrate the connecting plate 4 and are slidably connected to the upper end face of the shock-absorbing plate 11, are fixedly connected.

[0032] Preferably, a limiting circular plate 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slide rod 9, and a buffer spring 10 is sleeved on the surface of the slide rod 9, with its two ends fixedly connected to the upper end face of the shock-absorbing plate 11 and the lower end face of the connecting plate 4, respectively. The buffer spring 10 can play a buffering role.

[0033] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a U-shaped plate 12 fixedly connected to the lower end face of the fixed base plate 7. The U-shaped plate 12 has a positioning plate 18 that penetrates the fixed base plate 7 and is slidably connected to the penetration portion. The positioning plate 18 can cooperate with the positioning groove 17 to limit the mounting plate 16 in the mounting slot 15.

[0034] Preferably, the positioning plate 18 is slidably connected to the positioning groove 17 formed on the surface of the mounting plate 16. The positioning plate 18 has a threaded groove 19 inside. The U-shaped plate 12 has a limiting groove 21 on both sides inside. The limiting groove 21 can cooperate with the limiting slider 20 to limit the sliding of the positioning plate 18.

[0035] Preferably, the limiting slide groove 21 is slidably connected to a limiting slider 20 that is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 18, and the threaded groove 19 is threadedly connected to a threaded rod 22 that passes through the U-shaped plate 12 and is rotatably connected to the through part through a bearing. One end of the threaded rod 22 is fixedly connected to a rotating cap 13, and the rotating cap 13 is provided to facilitate the rotation of the threaded rod 22.

[0036] The specific working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows:

[0037] This utility model provides a multi-rotor drone with a variable lift structure. In use, when the drone needs to be stored, the two rotating caps 13 at the lower end of the fixed base plate 7 are rotated respectively. The rotating caps 13 drive the threaded rod 22 to rotate, causing the threaded rod 22 to rotate. Then, under the action of the threaded groove 19, the positioning plate 18 can slide under the action of the limiting slider 20 and the limiting groove 21, thereby separating the positioning plate 18 from the positioning groove 17, thus releasing the limiting connection between the mounting plate 16 and the mounting slot 15. Then, the drone can be stored... The mounting plate 16 can be pulled out of the mounting slot 15, allowing the support frame 6 to be disassembled. This effectively reduces the overall size of the drone, making it easier for staff to store the drone. When the support frame 6 needs to be reinstalled later, the mounting plate 16 is reinserted into the mounting slot 15, and then the rotating cap 13 is reversed to reverse the threaded rod 22, which allows the positioning plate 18 to move in the opposite direction and slide into the positioning groove 17. This completes the limiting connection between the mounting plate 16 and the mounting slot 15, thereby completing the limiting installation of the support frame 6, which is quite convenient.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Any ordinary technician in this industry can smoothly implement the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above. However, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made by technicians familiar with this profession without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention using the technical content disclosed above are all equivalent embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present invention.
