Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, and specifically relates to a shooting device for UAVs. Background Technology

[0002] Environmental monitoring is the process of observing, measuring, and analyzing the changes and environmental impacts of one or more environmental elements or indicators intermittently or continuously, according to a pre-designed time and space and using comparable environmental information and data collection methods, for a specific purpose.

[0003] The prior art patent publication number CN218703956U describes a drone monitoring and shooting device. This patent includes a body with drive seats at each of the four corners. A rotating head is mounted on each drive seat, and fan blades are mounted on the side of the rotating head. Support frames are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the body. A movable plate is located below the body, and a moving mechanism is connected to the movable plate. This invention, by setting up the moving mechanism, can move the camera up and down, thereby adjusting the camera's height for clear shooting. Furthermore, by setting up the rotating mechanism, the camera can rotate, thereby adjusting the camera's shooting angle. Convenient, the shooting angle can be changed within a small range without adjusting the drone angle, improving the convenience of monitoring; by setting a small fan, the small fan blows air on the lens of the shooting camera to remove dust and keep the lens of the shooting camera clean. However, there are still the following shortcomings in actual use: From a practical point of view, the drone in this patent lacks an effective shock-absorbing support mechanism when landing after shooting. It may cause the drone to overturn due to large vibrations during the landing process, thus damaging the drone. At the same time, the shooting camera cannot provide protection when not in use, and may be damaged during transportation or handling, thus making it impossible to shoot.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a drone shooting device to solve the problems of lack of shock absorption and inability to protect the shooting camera in existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drone shooting device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a drone shooting device, comprising a drone body, four propellers fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the drone body, a support mechanism fixedly mounted on the bottom of the drone body, and a protective mechanism fixedly mounted on the bottom of the drone body in front of the support mechanism.

[0007] It should be noted in the solution that the support mechanism includes a mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the UAV body. A connecting rod is provided through the mounting base, and a fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting rod and rotatably connected within the mounting base. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the outer end of the connecting rod of the mounting base. Support plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft through the connecting rod. The support plate has a clearance groove at the alignment point of the rotating shaft. A baffle is provided at one end of the connecting rod inside the mounting base, which is movable up and down. A spring is fixedly installed on the side of the baffle away from the connecting rod and connected to the mounting base.

[0008] It is worth noting that there are four connecting rods, arranged in two groups of two. The two groups of connecting rods are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the mounting base, and the mounting base has an opening for the connecting rods to move.

[0009] It should be further noted that the connecting rod is L-shaped and the angle is greater than 90°.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the protective mechanism includes a motor, which is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the motor. A high-definition camera is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate. A positioning block is fixedly connected to the outside of the high-definition camera on the bottom surface of the connecting plate. A semi-circular retaining ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning block. A circular retaining block is engaged inside the semi-circular retaining ring. A protective cover is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circular retaining block and is located outside the high-definition camera.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, two semi-circular retaining rings are symmetrically arranged on the positioning block, and two positioning blocks are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the positioning block. The semi-circular retaining rings are made of a material with a certain elastic deformation and their inner diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the circular retaining block.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the drone shooting device provided by this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) The support mechanism can effectively provide shock absorption support for the UAV, and can provide shock absorption and buffer effect when the UAV lands, so that it can land stably and improve the safety of use.

[0014] (2) The protective mechanism can protect the high-definition camera when it is not shooting, thus preventing damage during transportation and making it impossible to shoot, thereby improving the practicality of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a drone shooting device, including a drone body 1, four propellers 2 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the drone body 1, a support mechanism 3 fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body 1, and a protective mechanism 4 fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body 1 in front of the support mechanism 3.

[0022] The support mechanism 3 provides stable support and protection for the drone body 1, while also providing a cushioning effect, ensuring the drone body 1 remains stable upon landing and thus improving safety. Meanwhile, the protective mechanism 4 provides protection for the camera, preventing damage during transportation and thus enhancing practicality.

[0023] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, it is worth noting that the support mechanism 3 includes a mounting base 301, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the UAV body 1. A connecting rod 302 is inserted through the mounting base 301. A fixed shaft 304 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting rod 302 and rotatably connected within the mounting base 301. A rotating shaft 305 is rotatably connected to the outer end of the connecting rod 302. Support plates 303 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 305 through the connecting rod 302. The support plates 303 have clearance at the alignment point with the rotating shaft 305. The groove 306 has a baffle 307 that is movably installed at one end of the connecting rod 302 inside the mounting base 301. A spring 308 is fixedly installed on the side of the baffle 307 away from the connecting rod 302 and connected to the mounting base 301. There are four connecting rods 302, which are arranged in two groups of two. The two groups of connecting rods 302 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the mounting base 301. The mounting base 301 has an opening for the connecting rods 302 to move. The connecting rods 302 are L-shaped and the angle is greater than 90°.

[0024] The support plate 303 contacts the ground, and the connecting rod 302 is compressed by the rotating shaft 305, causing the connecting rod 302 to rotate within the mounting base 301 via the fixed shaft 304. Since the connecting rod 302 has baffles 307 on the upper and lower sides of one end within the mounting base 301, and the elasticity of the spring 308 provides elastic support for the baffles 307, the connecting rod 302 is elastically buffered and clamped. When the connecting rod 302 is compressed and rotated, it can be buffered by the baffles 307 and the spring 308, thereby providing buffer protection for the UAV body 1 and ensuring the stability of the UAV body 1 when landing.

[0025] As can be seen from the above working process, the support mechanism 3 can effectively provide shock absorption support for the drone, and can provide shock absorption and buffering effect when the drone lands, so that it can land stably and improve the safety of use.

[0026] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, it is worth noting that the protective mechanism 4 includes a motor 401, which is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body 1. A connecting plate 402 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the motor 401. A high-definition camera 405 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 402. A positioning block 403 is fixedly connected to the outside of the high-definition camera 405 on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 402. A semi-circular retaining ring 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning block 403. A circular retaining block 406 is engaged inside the semi-circular retaining ring 404. A protective cover 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circular retaining block 406 and is located outside the high-definition camera 405. Two semi-circular retaining rings 404 are symmetrically arranged on the positioning block 403. Two positioning blocks 403 are arranged symmetrically at the bottom of the positioning block 403. The semi-circular retaining rings 404 are made of a material with a certain degree of elastic deformation and the inner diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the circular retaining block 406.

[0027] During transportation, the high-definition camera 405 is protected by a protective cover 407. The protective cover 407 is removed from the outside of the high-definition camera 405 by disassembling the circular clip 406 that is attached to the semi-circular clip ring 404, so that the high-definition camera 405 can perform shooting operations.

[0028] This solution has the following working process: When this device is in use, the circular locking block 406, which is engaged in the semi-circular locking ring 404, is disassembled, thereby removing the protective cover 407 from the outside of the high-definition camera 405 to allow the high-definition camera 405 to take pictures. By starting the drone body 1 and propellers 2, the drone body 1 is put into operation. At the same time, the motor 401 is activated, causing the high-definition camera 405 to rotate for multi-angle shooting. When landing is required, the support plate 303 contacts the ground, and the rotating shaft 30... 5. A certain amount of compression is applied to the connecting rod 302, causing the connecting rod 302 to rotate within the mounting base 301 via the fixed shaft 304. Since baffles 307 are provided on the upper and lower sides of one end of the connecting rod 302 within the mounting base 301, and the elasticity of the spring 308 provides elastic support to the baffles 307, the connecting rod 302 is elastically buffered and clamped. When the connecting rod 302 is compressed and rotated, it can be buffered by the baffles 307 and the spring 308, thereby providing buffer protection for the UAV body 1 and improving its stability during landing.

[0029] In summary: The support mechanism 3 effectively provides shock absorption support for the drone, offering a cushioning effect during landing and ensuring a stable landing, thus improving safety. The protective mechanism 4 protects the high-definition camera 405 when not in use, preventing damage during transport that could prevent filming and enhancing the device's practicality.
