AI Technical Summary
Existing drones are prone to swaying and becoming unbalanced when spraying water, especially during high-altitude flight, where the water pipe generates an unbalanced force on the rear of the drone, affecting flight stability.
The system employs a buffer and balancing assembly, including a slide bar, spring, support tube, and motor. The spring compression counteracts the opposing force, while the support tube provides support, maintaining the force balance between the front and rear ends of the drone.
It effectively reduces the impact force generated by water spray on drones, prevents tilting and imbalance, and improves flight stability.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drones, and specifically relates to a drone water rinsing device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of drone technology, drones are becoming increasingly versatile. For example, installing water guns on drones and delivering water through pipes can be used for cleaning or firefighting at high altitudes. However, in existing technologies, the water gun exerts a reverse force on the drone when spraying water, especially at the moment of spraying. At this time, it is difficult to adjust the drone's attitude through algorithms or manual control, which can easily cause the drone to sway and become unbalanced. Furthermore, during high-altitude flight, most of the water pipe is located at the rear and lower part of the drone, concentrating the greatest force on the drone at the rear, which can easily cause the drone to tilt backward and downward. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for rinsing drones with water.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A water rinsing device for a drone includes a water pipe, a mounting assembly, a buffer assembly, and a balancing assembly. The mounting assembly includes a mounting block disposed at the front end of the drone, through which the water pipe passes and is connected to the mounting block. The buffer assembly includes two first sliding rods parallel to the water pipe, with both ends of the first sliding rods connected to the bottom of the drone via first connecting blocks. The mounting block is slidably disposed on the first sliding rods, and a first spring is sleeved on the first sliding rods between the mounting block and the first connecting block.
[0006] Preferably, the buffer assembly further includes a second slide bar disposed with the first slide bar. The second slide bar is connected to the lower part of the drone via a second connecting block. A slider is slidably disposed on the second slide bar. A rotating rod is rotatably disposed between the slider and the mounting block. A second spring is disposed between the second slide bar and the second connecting block.
[0007] Preferably, the balancing component includes an inclined connecting rod, one end of which is located at the bottom of the rear end of the drone, and the other end of which is provided with a support tube located below the middle of the drone. The support tube is inclined and the water pipe passes through the support tube.
[0008] Preferably, a fixing block is provided between the support tube and the connecting rod, the support tube is rotatably disposed on one side of the fixing block, and a motor for driving the support tube to rotate is provided on the other side of the fixing block.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom surface of the drone is also provided with a reinforcing rod, and the end of the reinforcing rod away from the drone is connected to the middle section of the connecting rod.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the compression of the first and second springs counteracts the backward force generated by the water gun spraying water, reducing the impact force on the drone; the support tube provides a certain support for the water pipe, making the front and rear ends of the drone balanced.

[0014] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, a water rinsing device for a drone according to the present invention includes a water pipe 6, a mounting component, a buffer component, and a balancing component. The mounting component includes a mounting block 4 disposed at the front end of the drone 1. The water pipe 6 passes through and is connected to the mounting block 4. The buffer component includes two first sliding rods 3 parallel to the water pipe 6. The two ends of the first sliding rods 3 are connected to the bottom of the drone 1 through first connecting blocks 2. The mounting block 4 is slidably disposed on the first sliding rods 3. A first spring 5 is sleeved on the first sliding rods 3 between the mounting block 4 and the first connecting block 2.
[0016] A water gun is installed at the front end of the water pipe 6 for spraying water. When the water is sprayed out, it will exert a backward force on the water gun and the water pipe 6. Since the water pipe 6 is connected to the mounting block 4, it will exert a backward force on the mounting block 4, forcing the mounting block 4 to move backward along the direction of the first sliding rod 3. During the movement, the first spring 5 is compressed to offset part of the force, reduce the force received by the drone 1, and the compression of the first spring 5 relatively prolongs the action time, reducing the impulse received by the drone 1.
[0017] The buffer assembly also includes a second slide bar 8 that interacts with the first slide bar 3. The second slide bar 8 is connected to the bottom of the drone 1 via a second connecting block 7. A slider 9 is slidably mounted on the second slide bar 8. A rotating rod 10 is rotatably mounted between the slider 9 and the mounting block 4. A second spring 11 is provided between the second slide bar 8 and the second connecting block 7.
[0018] As the mounting block 4 moves backward, the rotating rod 10 causes the two sliders 9 to slide away from each other. During the sliding of the sliders 9, the force exerted by the rotating rod 10 on the sliders 9 is decomposed into a first component parallel to the first sliding rod 3 and a second component parallel to the second sliding rod 8. The second component is converted into the elastic potential energy of the second spring 11, thereby further reducing the force on the drone 1. Since the two second sliders 9 slide in opposite directions, they exert opposite forces on the drone 1 and the forces are equal, making it less likely to affect the balance of the drone 1.
[0019] The balancing assembly includes an inclined connecting rod 12, one end of which is located at the bottom of the rear end of the drone 1, and the other end of which is provided with a support tube 14 located below the middle of the drone 1. The support tube 14 is inclined and the water pipe 6 passes through the support tube 14.
[0020] During the flight of the drone 1, the mounting block 4 is subjected to a downward force exerted on it by the water pipe 6. Since the mounting block 4 is located at the front end of the water pipe 6, the downward force exerted on the front end of the drone 1 can easily cause the front end of the drone 1 to tilt downward and become unbalanced. The water pipe 6 passes through the inclined support pipe 14, and the inner wall of the support pipe 14 will provide some support for the water pipe 6. The support pipe 14 is connected to the rear end of the drone 1 through the connecting rod 12, so that the rear end of the drone 1 is subjected to a partial downward force, which can effectively prevent the drone 1 from tilting and becoming unbalanced due to the imbalance of forces between the front and rear ends.
[0021] A fixing block 13 is provided between the support tube 14 and the connecting rod 12. The support tube 14 is rotatably mounted on one side of the fixing block 13, and a motor 15 for driving the support tube 14 to rotate is provided on the other side of the fixing block 13.
[0022] Due to different environments and conditions, different mechanisms may need to be installed at the front or rear of the drone 1, which will affect the force balance of the drone 1. The rotation of the motor 15 drives the rotation of the support tube 14. The rotation of the support tube 14 can adjust the force of the support tube 14 on the water pipe 6, thereby adjusting the force on the rear of the drone 1 to reduce the force imbalance of the drone 1.
[0023] The bottom surface of the drone 1 is also provided with a reinforcing rod 16, and the end of the reinforcing rod 16 away from the drone 1 is connected to the middle section of the connecting rod 12;
[0024] The reinforcing rod 16 strengthens the support of the connecting rod 12, preventing the connecting rod 12 from breaking due to excessive force.
