Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone recovery technology, specifically a drone mobile recovery device. Background Technology
[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, are unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and their own program control devices, or operated autonomously, either completely or intermittently, by an onboard computer. UAVs are typically recovered by attaching a touch net to the ground and then retrieving them after they have entered a designated runway.
[0003] A mobile recovery device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), such as the one described in announcement number CN210437408U, includes a trailer, a lifting sleeve, a recovery net, a buffer device, a crossbar, a guide device, and a hydraulic system. The lifting sleeve is mounted on one end of the upper surface of the trailer and is movably connected to the trailer. The crossbar is located at the top of the lifting sleeve and is movably connected to it. The buffer device is fixed between the crossbar and the lifting sleeve. The two ends of the recovery net are respectively connected to the crossbar and the lifting sleeve. The guide device is installed on the lifting sleeve and the crossbar. The hydraulic system is used to drive the lifting and lowering of the lifting sleeve. This aerial net-contact recovery method allows for safe and accurate net-collision recovery without site limitations, improving safety and flexibility in the recovery of industrial and military UAVs.
[0004] The aforementioned patent proposes using an aerial net for retrieval of drones. However, in actual operation, because the movement of the retrieval net is not restricted, the drone will still move to one side of the retrieval net after touching it, which may cause accidental injury to people and animals from the drone and the retrieval net, resulting in low safety.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a drone-based mobile recovery device to address the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mobile drone recovery device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the location of the net movement is not restricted, which may cause accidental harm to people and animals by the drone and the recovery net.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mobile recovery device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), comprising a recovery structure, wherein the recovery structure includes a base and a movable component movably installed inside the base, and an interception component is installed inside the movable component;
[0008] The interception component includes a bent plate and a sponge pad installed on the inner wall of the bent plate, and an interception net is installed at the front end of the bent plate;
[0009] The movable component includes an L-shaped plate, which is provided in two sets. A curved plate is installed between the two sets of L-shaped plates, and the two sides of the interception net are connected to the surfaces of the two sets of L-shaped plates.
[0010] Preferably, a movable plate is installed at the lower end of the L-shaped plate, and side plates are provided on both sides of the top of the movable plate, with an L-shaped groove provided on the side of the side plates that are close to each other.
[0011] Preferably, the bottom end of the L-shaped plate is provided with an inverted T-shaped hole, and a cylinder is installed at the top of the movable plate inside the L-shaped groove.
[0012] Preferably, the base includes a fixed plate and a side groove formed on one side of the top of the fixed plate. Limiting grooves are formed on both sides of the inner wall of the side groove, and rollers A are movably installed on both sides of the movable plate.
[0013] Preferably, a lower plate is installed at the bottom of the movable plate, and a roller B is movably installed inside the lower plate.
[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the side groove is provided on both sides and on the outer surface of the fixing plate, and the positions of the lower plate and roller B are consistent with the positions of the bottom groove.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] (1) The present invention provides a mobile recovery device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The interception net intercepts the UAV. The interception net deforms due to the impact force of the UAV. The UAV and the interception net come into contact with the sponge pad to protect the UAV and prevent the UAV from being damaged by direct contact with the curved plate. When the impact force of the UAV is no longer present, the curved plate and the sponge pad place the UAV.
[0017] (2) The present invention provides a drone mobile recovery device. After the drone comes into contact with the sponge pad, the impact force of the drone will drive the moving plate to the position where the drone moves through the bending plate, L-shaped plate and side plate. The roller A moves inside the limiting slide groove. Since the limiting slide groove is located inside the fixed plate, it restricts the movement of the moving component and avoids the drone and the recovery structure from causing harm to animals or people.

[0023] 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.
[0024] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A mobile recovery device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) includes a recovery structure 1, which includes a base 11 and a movable component 12 movably installed inside the base 11. An interception component 13 is installed inside the movable component 12.
[0025] The interception component 13 includes a curved plate 131 and a sponge pad 132 installed on the inner wall of the curved plate 131. An interception net 133 is installed at the front end of the curved plate 131. The interception net 133 intercepts the flying drone, and the sponge pad 132 protects the drone itself to prevent the drone from colliding with the curved plate 131 and affecting the quality of the drone.
[0026] The movable component 12 includes an L-shaped plate 128, which is provided in two sets. A curved plate 131 is installed between the two sets of L-shaped plates 128. The two sides of the interception net 133 are connected to the surfaces of the two sets of L-shaped plates 128. The L-shaped plates 128 are used to retract the drone, and the curved plate 131 restricts the movement range of the drone.
[0027] A movable plate 121 is installed at the lower end of the L-shaped plate 128. Side plates 125 are provided on both sides of the top of the movable plate 121. An L-shaped groove 126 is provided on the side of the side plate 125 that is close to it. The L-shaped plate 128 matches the L-shaped groove 126. One side of the L-shaped plate 128, which is equipped with the curved plate 131 and the intercepting net 133, is flush with the surface of the side plate 125.
[0028] The bottom end of the L-shaped plate 128 is provided with an inverted T-shaped hole 129, and the top of the movable plate 121 and inside the L-shaped slide groove 126 are provided with a cylinder 127. The moving end of the cylinder 127 is installed inside the top of the inverted T-shaped hole 129.
[0029] In this embodiment: the moving end of the cylinder 127 extends inside the inverted T-shaped hole 129, the L-shaped plate 128 is limited and moves upward inside the L-shaped groove 126, the two sets of L-shaped plates 128 move upward, so that the interception member 13 also moves upward, the interception net 133 intercepts the drone, the interception net 133 deforms due to the impact force of the drone, the drone and the interception net 133 come into contact with the sponge pad 132 to protect the drone and prevent the drone from being damaged by direct contact with the curved plate 131. When the impact force of the drone is no longer present, the curved plate 131 and the sponge pad 132 place the drone, the cylinder 127 retracts, the inverted T-shaped hole 129 covers the fixed end of the cylinder 127 as the L-shaped plate 128 moves downward, making it easy for the operator to pick up the drone.
[0030] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-3 The base 11 includes a fixed plate 111 and a side groove 112 formed on one side of the top of the fixed plate 111. Limiting grooves 113 are formed on both sides of the inner wall of the side groove 112. Rollers A122 are movably installed on both sides of the movable plate 121. The rollers A122 are movably installed inside the limiting grooves 113, and the diameter of the rollers A122 is the same as the height of the limiting grooves 113, so that the rollers A122 can roll more smoothly inside the limiting grooves 113, and can keep the movable component 12 and the intercepting component 13 stable when they move. The movable plate 121 matches the side groove 112.
[0031] A lower plate 123 is installed at the bottom of the movable plate 121. A roller B124 is movably installed inside the lower plate 123. The bottom end of the roller B124 is flush with the bottom end of the fixed plate 111.
[0032] Bottom grooves 114 are provided on both sides of the bottom end of the side groove 112 and on the outer surface of the fixed plate 111. The positions of the lower plate 123 and the roller B124 are consistent with the positions of the bottom groove 114, which restricts the movement angle of the moving plate 121. The outer side of the lower plate 123 contacts the outer surface of the fixed plate 111. The rollers A122 and B124 can rotate when the intercepting member 13 is subjected to impact force, which facilitates the moving member to move within the side groove 112 and the limiting slide groove 113, thus protecting the UAV itself.
[0033] In this embodiment: after the drone comes into contact with the sponge pad 132, the impact force of the drone will drive the moving plate 121 to move towards the position where the drone moves through the curved plate 131, the L-shaped plate 128 and the side plate 125. The roller A122 moves inside the limiting groove 113, the roller B124 is inside the rear side of the bottom groove 114, and one side of the moving plate 121 moves from inside the side groove 112, so that the sponge pad 132 moves together with the moving component 12, preventing the impact force of the drone from contacting the curved plate 131 through the sponge pad 132 and causing damage to the drone. Since the limiting groove 113 is located inside the fixed plate 111, it restricts the movement of the moving component 12, preventing the drone and the recovery structure 1 from causing harm to animals or people.
[0034] Working principle: The interception net 133 intercepts the drone. The interception net 133 deforms due to the impact force of the drone. The drone and the interception net 133 come into contact with the sponge pad 132, which protects the drone and prevents the drone from being damaged by direct contact with the curved plate 131. The impact force of the drone will drive the moving plate 121 to the position of the drone through the curved plate 131, the L-shaped plate 128 and the side plate 125. The sponge pad 132 moves together with the moving component 12 to prevent the impact force of the drone from contacting the curved plate 131 through the sponge pad 132 and causing damage to the drone.
