Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) relay technology, specifically to an airborne UAV relay launch mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Relay communication is an indispensable and crucial component of professional wireless communication systems. In recent years, sudden geological disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and snowstorms have frequently occurred in my country. After a geological disaster, facing extremely complex disaster sites, it is paramount to collect information from the disaster site and transmit it back to the command center in digital, text, image, voice, and video formats as quickly as possible to support decision-making by the disaster relief command. Obtaining timely and effective disaster information is a powerful guarantee for saving lives and property. In the event of a sudden incident, traditional communication and relay stations may be damaged, and new emergency relays may be unable to communicate with existing relays or other relays due to distance limitations. In such cases, emergency drone relays can be urgently deployed, hovering at an altitude of 300-500 meters. Multiple drones can then network using mesh technology to provide network support for emergency disaster relief, forest fire prevention, border patrol, counter-terrorism, power line inspection, and agricultural inspection in a medium-sized city, providing audio, video, and data information to the application layer.

[0003] Most existing UAV airborne relay launch mechanisms are directly fixed to the surface of the UAV for operation. In actual use, they may collide with external objects, causing damage to the UAV relay, resulting in economic losses and affecting its use. Therefore, a new UAV airborne relay launch mechanism is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

It solves the problem that most existing UAV airborne relay launch mechanisms are directly fixed to the surface of the UAV for operation. In actual use, they may collide with external objects, causing damage to the UAV relay, resulting in economic losses and affecting its use.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an airborne relay transmission mechanism for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), comprising a body, a frame mounted on the outer side of the body, a repeater disposed at the bottom of the body, and a protective component disposed between the repeater and the body;

A fixing block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod, and the fixing block is inserted into the inner side of the positioning cover.

[0008] Furthermore, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning cover, and the number of the limiting blocks is set to two.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the repeater is provided with blind holes that are adapted to the limiting blocks. The number of blind holes is set to two, and the two limiting blocks are respectively matched with the two blind holes.

[0010] Furthermore, the knob is located on the outside of the mounting housing, and a strip-shaped opening is provided at the bottom of the mounting housing, through which the connecting rod passes.

[0011] Furthermore, a movable ring is fixedly connected to the upper side of the threaded sleeve, and a guide rod is provided on the inner side of the movable ring.
