Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) payload technology, specifically to a UAV landing gear structure with an integrated mounting platform. Background Technology
[0002] Vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) fixed-wing drones combine the advantages of multi-rotor and fixed-wing systems. Structurally, they possess both fixed-wing wings and multi-rotor propulsion components. During vertical takeoff and landing, the multi-rotor provides lift, allowing the drone to ascend or land vertically like a helicopter. This characteristic eliminates the dependence on runways. When transitioning to level flight, the fixed wings take over, generating lift through the wings and providing forward propulsion through the thrusters, enabling efficient flight similar to conventional fixed-wing aircraft. Traditional VTOL fixed-wing drones, in order to maintain an aerodynamic shape, typically integrate all necessary equipment onto the fuselage, lacking suitable platforms for other equipment, resulting in limited drone applications. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a drone landing gear structure with an integrated mounting platform, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that traditional vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing drones usually integrate the equipment to be mounted on the fuselage in order to ensure the aerodynamic shape of the fuselage, and other equipment does not have a suitable mounting platform, resulting in the drone having a single purpose.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drone landing gear structure with an integrated mounting platform, comprising a drone, wherein support plates are provided on both the left and right sides of the lower end of the drone fuselage, landing rods are provided on the lower end of the support plates and on both sides of the drone, a connecting plate is provided between the two support plates on the front and rear sides, a mounting plate is provided below the connecting plate, mounting bolts are provided through the four corners of the mounting plate, the upper end of the mounting bolts passes through the connecting plate and abuts against its upper surface, the lower end of the mounting bolts passes through the limiting plate and abuts against its lower surface, and shock-absorbing balls are provided through the mounting bolts and between the connecting plate and the mounting plate and between the mounting plate and the limiting plate.
[0005] Preferably, the UAV is a vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing UAV, and a fixed seat is provided at the lower end of the UAV fuselage corresponding to the position of the support plate. The upper end of the support plate abuts against the outside of the fixed seat, and the upper end of the support plate is fixedly connected to the fixed seat by bolts.
[0006] Preferably, a connecting seat is provided at the outer end of the connecting plate corresponding to the position of the supporting plate, and a bolt is threaded between the supporting plate and the connecting seat, and the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the supporting plate by the bolt.
[0007] Preferably, the support plate is divided into two groups, with two support plates in each group disposed on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the UAV, and the cross-section of the support plate has a streamlined structure.
[0008] Preferably, the mounting plate has bolt holes extending through its center.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: a landing foot structure is designed on the basis of traditional vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing UAVs, and a mounting platform is integrated on the foot structure. The equipment to be mounted is fixed to the mounting platform by bolts, which improves the versatility of various equipment and UAVs and expands the uses of UAVs. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a drone landing gear structure with an integrated mounting platform, including a drone 1. The drone 1 has support plates 2 on both the left and right sides of its lower fuselage. The lower end of the support plates 2 and the sides of the drone 1 have landing rods 3. A connecting plate 4 is provided between the two support plates 2 on the front and rear sides. A mounting plate 5 is provided below the connecting plate 4. Mounting bolts 6 are provided through the four corners of the mounting plate 5. The upper end of the mounting bolts 6 passes through the connecting plate 4 and abuts against its upper surface. The lower end of the mounting bolts 6 passes through the limiting plate 7 and abuts against its lower surface. Shock-absorbing balls 8 are provided through the mounting bolts 6, between the connecting plate 4 and the mounting plate 5, and between the mounting plate 5 and the limiting plate 7.
[0018] In use, a landing rod 3 is installed at the lower end of the drone 1 via a support plate 2. The drone 1 is supported by the landing rod 3 when landing. The landing rod 3 is located below the drone 1 body. The support plate 2 leaves space for equipment installation between the landing rod 3 and the drone 1. A connecting plate 4 is fixed between the support plates 2 with bolts. A mounting plate 5 is installed below the connecting plate 4 via mounting bolts 6. The equipment to be mounted is fixed to the mounting plate 5 with bolts. A limiting plate 7 is installed at the lower end of the mounting bolts 6. The limiting plate 7 limits and fixes the shock-absorbing ball 8. Shock-absorbing balls 8 are installed on the mounting bolts 6 and above and below the mounting plate 5. When the drone 1 flies and lands, the shock-absorbing balls 8 absorb the vibration of the mounting plate 5 relative to the drone, thus reducing the vibration of the equipment mounted on the mounting plate 5.
[0019] The UAV 1 is a vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing UAV. The lower end of the UAV 1 is provided with a fixed seat 9 corresponding to the support plate 2. The upper end of the support plate 2 abuts against the outside of the fixed seat 9. The upper end of the support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 9 by bolts. The support plate 2 is fixedly set on the fixed seat 9 by bolts, thereby being firmly installed on the lower end of the UAV and ensuring the ease of disassembly of the support plate 2.
[0020] A connecting seat 10 is provided at the outer end of the connecting plate 4 corresponding to the position of the support plate 2. A bolt is threaded between the support plate 2 and the connecting seat 10. The connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the support plate 2 by the bolt. Connecting seats 10 are provided at both ends of the connecting plate 4. The connecting plate 4 is fixedly set between the support plate 2 by the threaded connection between the bolt and the connecting seat 10.
[0021] The support plate 2 is divided into two groups, with two support plates 2 in each group set on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the UAV 1. The cross-section of the support plate 2 has a streamlined structure. By designing the streamlined structure of the support plate 2, the wind resistance of the support plate 2 is reduced.
[0022] The mounting plate 5 has a bolt hole 11 through the middle position. The equipment to be mounted is fixedly set on the mounting plate 5 by bolts passing through the bolt hole 11.
[0023] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
