Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to scanner technical field, concretely is a topographic scanner. BACKGROUND
[0002] When studying the geological characteristics of the ore deposit, it is necessary to measure the topography and geomorphology from each ore-drawing platform to the three-option crushing station and from each slag-drawing platform to each dumping site, establish a three-dimensional topographic map, and calculate the self-unloading truck haul distance. According to the road topography of the three-dimensional topographic map, the transportation route is optimized to improve the transportation efficiency and reduce the loss. At this time, a topographic scanner is needed to take pictures of the topography and geomorphology in order to establish a three-dimensional map to visually display the topography.
[0003] The existing aerial scanner generally adds a fixed frame under the unmanned aerial vehicle, installs a monitoring camera under the unmanned aerial vehicle, and releases the unmanned aerial vehicle through the landing gear when taking off. However, during the scanning process of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the recovery operation process, it is difficult to control the unmanned aerial vehicle to land at a slow speed and in a horizontal attitude due to the operation of the technical personnel. Under the inertial action of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the bottom monitoring camera is easily damaged. In related technologies, a protective device is installed on the outside of the monitoring assembly. When the side or bottom is impacted, the detection assembly can be protected. When the bottom is impacted, the second protective plate is retracted to the inside of the first protective plate, and the monitoring assembly is retracted inwardly, which can play a protective role. However, since the monitoring assembly is installed at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the protective plate surrounds the monitoring assembly, and the bottom of the protective plate needs to extend below the monitoring assembly to protect the monitoring assembly. Therefore, when the unmanned aerial vehicle is used for normal shooting, the field of view of the scanner is limited by the protective plate. When the camera needs to adjust the upward angle and shoot the front, it will be blocked by the protective plate, which affects the scanning work. SUMMARY

[0030] In use, the operator installs the scanner on the aircraft, starts the aircraft near the mine, and photographs and surveys the geological conditions of the mine through the scanner.
[0031] In the related art, the detection assembly can be protected when being impacted from the side or the bottom by installing a protective device outside the monitoring assembly, and when being impacted from the bottom, the second protective plate is retracted inside the first protective plate, and the monitoring assembly is retracted inwardly, thereby playing a protection role. However, since the monitoring assembly is installed at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the protective plate surrounds the monitoring assembly, and the bottom of the protective plate needs to extend below the monitoring assembly to protect the monitoring assembly. Thus, when the unmanned aerial vehicle is used to normally shoot, the field of view of the scanner is limited by the protective plate, and when the camera needs to be adjusted upwardly to shoot the front, the protective plate is blocked, thereby affecting the scanning work.
[0032] In order to solve the problems in the related art to some extent, the embodiment of the present application provides a terrain scanner. Before the aircraft 11 needs to land, only the driving mechanism 21 needs to be started, the moving plate 22 is driven to move downwardly, the limiting sliding block 241 is retracted to the inside of the moving plate 22, thereby releasing the limiting of the connecting plate 25, the connecting plate 25 is pushed downwardly under the action of the spring outside the second guide rod 26, thereby driving the two protective plates 27 to slide out downwardly, the protective plates 27 slide to the below of the scanner 13, and when the aircraft 11 lands, the landing is buffered by the contact between the protective plates 27 and the ground, thereby reducing the damage to the aircraft 11. Meanwhile, when the aircraft 11 normally flies, the protective plates 27 are retracted to the inside of the aircraft 11, do not block the field of view of the scanner 13, and the practicability of the device is enhanced.
[0033] The present application will be described below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments:
[0034] In combination with Figures 1-4 the embodiment of the present application provides a terrain scanner, which comprises an aircraft 11, a mounting frame 12 is installed at the bottom of the aircraft 11, and a storage battery is arranged in the inside of the aircraft 11; a scanner 13 is installed in the inside of the mounting frame 12; a protective assembly 2 is arranged in the inside of the aircraft 11; the protective assembly 2 comprises a driving mechanism 21 arranged in the inside of the aircraft 11; a moving plate 22 is slidingly connected to the inside of the aircraft 11, and the moving plate 22 is connected with the driving mechanism 21; a limiting block 23 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the moving plate 22; a limiting mechanism 24 is arranged at the side surface of the moving plate 22; a connecting plate 25 is slidingly connected to the inside of the aircraft 11, and the connecting plate 25 is in contact with the limiting mechanism 24; a second guide rod 26 is fixedly connected to the inside of the aircraft 11, the second guide rod 26 is slidingly connected to the two sides of the connecting plate 25, and a spring is arranged outside the second guide rod 26; and a protective plate 27 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 25.
[0035] In use, the aircraft 11 is started, so that the aircraft 11 is lifted, the mounting frame 12 is adjusted through the remote control device to change the orientation and angle of the scanner 13, the mine is scanned, before the aircraft 11 is landed, the micro motor 211 is started to drive the threaded sleeve 212 to rotate, because the limiting blocks 23 on the two sides of the moving plate 22 limit the rotation of the moving plate 22, so the threaded rod 213 slides downward together with the moving plate 22, which drives the limiting sliding block 241 to slide downward, the limiting sliding block 241 is pressed to contact the inside of the aircraft 11, so as to be retracted into the inside of the moving plate 22, thereby releasing the limiting of the connecting plate 25, the connecting plate 25 is pushed downward under the action of the spring outside the second guide rod 26, thereby driving the two protective plates 27 to slide out downward, the protective plates 27 slide to the lower side of the scanner 13, the damper is arranged outside the second guide rod 26, which can buffer the impact caused by the contact of the protective plates 27 with the ground, so that the landing can be buffered through the contact of the protective plates 27 with the ground when the aircraft 11 lands, thereby reducing the damage to the scanner 13, because the outside of the second guide rod 26 is a damping spring, when the protective plates 27 normally contact the ground and are impacted, the protective plates 27 will not be completely retracted into the inside of the aircraft 11 due to the impact, so that the probability of the scanner 13 contacting the ground in the vertical direction can be reduced, at the same time, when the aircraft 11 normally flies, the protective plates 27 are retracted into the inside of the aircraft 11, which does not block the field of view of the scanner 13, thereby enhancing the practicability of the device.

[0037] In use, because the limiting blocks 23 are fixedly arranged outside the moving plate 22, and the moving plate 22 and the limiting blocks 23 are both slidingly connected with the inside of the aircraft 11, the rotation of the micro motor 211 to drive the threaded sleeve 212 will not drive the threaded rod 213 to rotate, but will adjust the up-and-down movement of the threaded rod 213, thereby facilitating the retraction of the limiting sliding block 241 into the inside of the moving plate 22, and facilitating the operation.
[0038] In some embodiments, the limiting mechanism 24 comprises a limiting sliding block 241 slidingly connected to the inside of the moving plate 22; side sliding blocks 242 fixedly connected to the two sides of the limiting sliding block 241; and a first guide rod 243 fixedly connected to the inside of the moving plate 22, the first guide rod 243 is slidingly connected with the side sliding blocks 242, and the outside of the first guide rod 243 is sleeved with a spring.
[0039] In use, when the connecting plate 25 is positioned, the protective plate 27 and the connecting plate 25 are pushed upward, and in the process of upward movement of the connecting plate 25, the inclined surface at the bottom of the limiting slider 241 is pressed, so as to push the limiting slider 241 into the inside of the moving plate 22 and compress the spring outside the first guide rod 243. When the groove on one side of the connecting plate 25 reaches the position of the limiting slider 241, the limiting slider 241 is no longer pressed, and the limiting slider 241 is pushed out of the inside of the moving plate 22 under the action of the spring outside the first guide rod 243 and is inserted into the groove on one side of the connecting plate 25, so as to position the connecting plate 25 and facilitate installation.
[0040] In some embodiments, one end of the limiting slider 241 extends out of the inside of the moving plate 22, the extending part is provided with an inclined surface, and one side of the connecting plate 25 is provided with a groove with the same height as the extending part of the limiting slider 241, so that the connecting plate 25 is abutted by the top of the limiting slider 241, preventing the connecting plate 25 from sliding out of one side of the limiting slider 241 when the aircraft 11 normally flies, causing the protective plate 27 to slide out and affecting the field of view of the scanner 13.
[0041] In some embodiments, the limiting block 23, the limiting slider 241 and the connecting plate 25 form a group, and two groups are provided on the side surface of the moving plate 22 and are symmetrically arranged, so as to enhance the limiting effect.
[0042] In some embodiments, the number of protective plates 27 is two, and the two protective plates 27 are connected with the connecting plate 25 through the mounting assembly 3; the mounting assembly 3 comprises: an insertion block 31 fixedly connected to one end of the protective plate 27; an insertion slot 32 formed in the inside of the other end of the protective plate 27; a mounting hole 33 formed in the top and bottom of the insertion slot 32; and a threaded hole 34 provided in the inside of the insertion block 31.
[0043] In use, the insertion block 31 of one protective plate 27 is inserted into the insertion slot 32 on one side of the other protective plate 27, then the threaded hole 34 is aligned with the threaded hole at the bottom of the connecting plate 25, and a screw is screwed through the mounting hole 33 for fixation, which is convenient and fast.
[0044] In some embodiments, the diameter of the mounting hole 33 is greater than the diameter of the threaded hole 34, so as to facilitate hiding the head of the screw into the inside of the mounting hole 33.
[0045] In some embodiments, the moving plate 22 is located inside the aircraft 11 and above the mounting frame 12, and the moving plate 22 does not contact the mounting frame 12 during movement, so as to prevent the up-and-down movement of the moving plate 22 from interfering with the normal use of the mounting frame 12.
