Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone accessories technology, specifically a drone cargo drop container. Background Technology

[0002] A drone cargo drop container is a cargo delivery device designed specifically for drones. It can effectively solve the problem of material distribution in remote areas and emergencies. After natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, when ground transportation is interrupted, drone cargo drop containers can quickly deliver relief supplies such as food, drinking water, and medicine to disaster areas. For remote mountainous areas or islands with inconvenient transportation, drone cargo drop containers provide an efficient and convenient logistics solution.

[0003] Chinese patent CN205971862U discloses a drone cargo compartment. It remotely operates a second drive device through a control system, causing the tilting part to rotate away from the horizontal part. After one end of the tilting part contacts the ground, the second drive device stops operating. Then, the control system can control the first drive device to transport the cargo from the horizontal part towards the tilting part. At the same time, when the cargo approaches the tilting part, it will slide down the tilting part to the ground under the action of gravity, thus completing automatic unloading.

[0004] The above-mentioned solution uses a drive unit to transport the cargo to the inclined section for unloading. However, this unloading method requires the drive unit to transport the cargo a certain distance before unloading can be completed, resulting in low unloading efficiency. Therefore, we provide a drone-based cargo drop container to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] 1) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a cargo drop container for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drone cargo drop container, comprising:

[0009] The cabin has a cargo throwing port on its bottom surface and a cargo inlet on its side surface.

[0010] Both throwing doors are hinged to the bottom of the hull and cover the cargo throwing port.

[0011] An interceptor plate is installed below the cabin. The two throwing doors are positioned so that their ends are close to each other and rest against the inside of the interceptor plate. Two pull ropes are fixedly connected to the interceptor plate.

[0012] Two deployment components are located on both sides of the cabin and are used to limit the position of the interceptor plate by pulling ropes.

[0013] A support is fixedly connected to the cabin body. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the support. A cargo door is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft and covers the cargo inlet. A limit ring is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0014] The limiting component, installed on the cabin, is used to limit the rotation of the rotating shaft through the limiting ring.

[0015] Furthermore, the deployment assembly includes a fixed platform fixedly connected to the cabin body, a motor mounted on the fixed platform, a cam mounted on the output shaft of the motor, a linkage rod rotatably connected to the cam, a sliding groove provided on the fixed platform, a pin slidably connected in the sliding groove, and the top end of the linkage rod inserted into the pin.

[0016] Furthermore, a pull ring is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rope away from the interceptor plate, and the pull ring is sleeved on the pin.

[0017] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a fixed seat fixedly connected to the cabin body, a limiting ring having a limiting groove arranged in a circular array, a rod slidably connected to the fixed seat, the bottom end of the rod being adapted to the limiting groove, and a limiting block fixedly connected to the end of the rod away from the limiting ring, with the limiting block located above the fixed seat.

[0018] Furthermore, a connecting ring is fixedly connected to the insertion rod, and a support spring is sleeved on the insertion rod, with both ends of the support spring abutting against the fixed base and the connecting ring, respectively.

[0030] 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.

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a drone cargo drop container, including a container body 1, an interceptor plate 3, a support 5, a limiting component, two drop gates 2, and two release components.

[0032] The cabin 1 has mounting holes 7. The cabin 1 can be fixed to the bottom of the drone by installing bolts in the mounting holes 7. The bottom surface of the cabin 1 has a cargo throwing port and the side surface of the cabin 1 has a cargo inlet. Goods can be placed inside the cabin 1 through the cargo inlet and thrown out of the cabin 1 through the cargo throwing port.

[0033] Both throwing doors 2 are hinged to the bottom surface of the cabin 1 and cover the cargo throwing port. The bottom of the cabin 1 is triangular and both throwing doors 2 are inclined. The cargo will be piled on the throwing doors 2. After the limit on the throwing doors 2 is released, the throwing doors 2 will rotate due to the weight of the cargo itself, thereby completing the throwing of the cargo.

[0034] The interceptor plate 3 is located below the cabin 1. The two throwing gates 2 are close to each other at one end and abut against the inside of the interceptor plate 3. Two pull ropes 21 are fixedly connected to the interceptor plate 3. The cross-section of the interceptor plate 3 is L-shaped, and the two throwing gates 2 can be limited by the interceptor plate 3.

The output shaft of the motor 16 drives the cam 17 to rotate, and the linkage rod 18 drives the pin 19 to slide in the sliding groove 20, thereby completing the reciprocating movement of the pin 19.

[0036] A pull ring 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rope 21 away from the interceptor plate 3, and the pull ring 22 is sleeved on the pin 19. When the pin 19 is inserted into the pull ring 22, the interceptor plate 3 can be limited by the pull rope 21. When throwing goods, the pin 19 of either of the two throwing components can be pulled out from the pull ring 22 to release the limitation on the interceptor plate 3, so that the throwing door 2 can be flipped open on the cabin 1.

[0037] Support 5 is fixedly connected to the cabin 1. A rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to support 5. A cargo door 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 6 and covers the cargo inlet. The cabin 1, cargo door 4 and throwing door 2 are all made of carbon fiber and are lightweight. A limit ring 8 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 6.

[0038] The limiting component is installed on the cabin 1 and is used to limit the rotation of the rotating shaft 6 by means of the limiting ring 8. The limiting component includes a fixed seat 10 fixedly connected to the cabin 1. The limiting ring 8 has a limiting groove 9 arranged in a circular array. A rod 11 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 10, and the bottom end of the rod 11 is adapted to the limiting groove 9. A limiting block 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the rod 11 away from the limiting ring 8, and the limiting block 12 is located above the fixed seat 10. The rotation of the rotating shaft 6 can be limited by inserting the rod 11 into the limiting groove 9.

[0039] A connecting ring 13 is fixedly connected to the insertion rod 11, and a support spring 14 is sleeved on the insertion rod 11. The two ends of the support spring 14 abut against the fixed seat 10 and the connecting ring 13 respectively. The elasticity of the support spring 14 supports the insertion rod 11, thereby improving the stability of the insertion rod 11 in the limiting groove 9.
