[0002] In rural design and planning, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) mapping devices have become an indispensable high-tech tool. These devices integrate advanced flight control systems, high-precision cameras, and sensors, and are specifically designed for complex and varied rural terrain. They can fly autonomously at low altitudes, quickly capturing high-resolution images and 3D data of the ground, providing accurate basic information for rural land use, road planning, environmental monitoring, and agricultural management.
[0003] According to announcement number CN221367550U, a drone safety protection device is disclosed. This technology discloses a "drone safety protection device, installed on the drone body, the drone body including the fuselage and multiple wings disposed on the fuselage, the fuselage being provided with a protective mechanism for covering and protecting each of the wings". It has the technical effect of "being able to cover and protect the wings of the drone. When the drone crashes or other emergencies occur, the protective mechanism can protect each wing from falling, reducing the risk of wing damage. At the same time, the protective mechanism can also protect the fuselage, so that when the drone crashes, the fuselage will not directly contact the ground, reducing the damage when the drone crashes".
[0004] The above solution uses a ring-shaped protective plate to protect the drone and its four propellers. However, when the protective plate is damaged by impact, the entire plate needs to be replaced, increasing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the disassembly and reassembly of the entire plate increases the difficulty and complexity of maintenance. Utility Model Content
