Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of UAV surveying and mapping devices, and in particular relates to a mounting bracket for a UAV surveying and mapping device. Background Technology

[0002] The deep integration of UAV technology and surveying equipment is fundamentally changing the face of the traditional surveying industry. By integrating advanced surveying equipment such as high-precision GPS positioning, inertial navigation systems (INS), high-resolution cameras, and lidar (LiDAR) onto UAV platforms, we can perform complex tasks such as topographic surveying, 3D modeling, environmental monitoring, and urban planning with unprecedented efficiency and accuracy. UAVs, with their flexible and maneuverable characteristics, can easily traverse rugged terrain, densely populated urban areas, or inaccessible nature reserves, capturing ground information in real time and greatly expanding the scope and depth of surveying operations. Simultaneously, with powerful data processing software, UAV surveying systems can rapidly transform massive amounts of collected data into high-precision 3D topographic maps, digital orthophotos (DOM), digital elevation models (DEM), and other surveying products, providing strong data support for land resource management, disaster prevention and mitigation, and infrastructure construction. This efficient, accurate, and non-contact surveying method not only improves work efficiency but also significantly reduces labor costs and environmental impact, demonstrating the enormous potential and broad prospects of UAV technology in the modern surveying field.

[0003] The problem with existing technology is that when installing and connecting existing drone mapping instruments to drones, the mapping instrument is usually directly fixed to the drone with screws. This is troublesome during installation and subsequent disassembly. In addition, the screws may strip after a period of use, causing damage to the drone and the mapping instrument. This results in problems such as inconvenience in disassembly and easy damage to the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0023] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The installation and connection device 4 includes a frame assembly 41, a connection assembly 42, and a limit tensioning assembly 43. The frame assembly 41 is positioned above the surveying instrument 3, the connection assembly 42 is positioned at the upper end of the frame assembly 41, and the limit tensioning assembly 43 is positioned below the connection assembly 42.

[0024] The above scheme is adopted: by setting up the installation and connection device 4, it is used to install and fix the surveying instrument 3, which has the function of connecting and fixing the surveying instrument 3 to the body 1, and facilitates the quick installation and subsequent quick removal of the surveying instrument 3 during surveying.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The frame assembly 41 includes a connecting frame 411, a base plate 412, a sliding rod 413, and a top plate 414. The connecting frame 411 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the surveying instrument 3, the base plate 412 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the connecting frame 411, the sliding rod 413 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 412, and the top plate 414 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sliding rod 413.

[0026] The above solution is adopted: by setting up the frame component 41, the surveying instrument 3 is supported and fixed, which facilitates subsequent connection and fixation with the body 1.

[0027] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting component 42 includes a movable disk 421, a locking head 422, a button ring 423, and a limiting groove 424. The movable disk 421 is sleeved on the upper surface of the slide rod 413 and is slidably connected to the slide rod 413 and rotatably connected to the slide rod 413. There are four locking heads 422, which are evenly fixedly connected to the circumference of the movable disk 421. The button ring 423 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the movable disk 421. There are four limiting grooves 424, which are evenly opened on the circumference of the upper surface of the movable disk 421. All four limiting grooves 424 penetrate the movable disk 421.

[0028] The above solution is adopted: by setting the connecting component 42, which has the function of cooperating and docking with the connecting piece 5 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the body 1, the frame and the body 1 are connected, thereby installing and fixing the surveying instrument 3.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The limiting tensioning assembly 43 includes a limiting rod 431, a rotating ring 432, and a tension spring 433. There are four limiting rods 431, which are respectively set in four limiting grooves 424 and slidably connected to the limiting grooves 424. The upper and lower ends of the four limiting rods 431 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the top plate 414 and the upper surface of the bottom plate 412, respectively. The rotating ring 432 is sleeved on the lower surface of the slide rod 413 and rotatably connected to the slide rod 413. The tension spring 433 is sleeved on the surface of the slide rod 413, and its upper and lower ends are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the moving plate 421 and the upper surface of the rotating ring 432, respectively.

[0030] The above solution is adopted: by setting a limit tensioning component 43, the connecting component 42 is pulled downward, which gives the moving disk 421 a downward pulling force, and at the same time has the function of limiting the rotation angle of the moving disk 421.

[0031] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2A connector 5 is provided on the lower surface of the body 1. The upper surface of the connector 5 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the body 1. Four mating grooves 6 are evenly opened on the lower surface of the connector 5. All four mating grooves 6 extend into the connector 5. The positions of the four mating grooves 6 correspond to the positions of the four clips 422.

[0032] The above solution is adopted: by setting the connector 5 and the docking groove 6, it is used to cooperate and dock with the connecting component 42, thereby connecting and fixing the machine body 1 and the surveying instrument 3.

[0033] refer to Figure 4 Each of the four clip heads 422 has an anti-slip pad 7 on its lower surface, and the anti-slip pad 7 is fixedly connected to the clip head 422.

[0034] The above solution involves providing anti-slip pads 7 on the lower surfaces of all four clips 422 to prevent slippage of the clips 422 and thus prevent them from sliding on the connector 5.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model:

[0036] When connecting and fixing the surveying instrument 3, insert the top plate 414 into the connector 5, and align the clamp head 422 with the docking groove 6. Then, by pulling the ring 423 upward, the moving disk 421 slides upward on the surface of the slide rod 413, moving the clamp head 422 through the docking groove 6 into the connector 5. Then, rotate the ring 423 counterclockwise, causing the moving disk 421 to rotate within the connector 5, thus interleaving the clamp head 422 with the docking groove 6. When rotating the ring 423, the limiting groove 424 moves on the surface of the rod, while the rotating ring 432 rotates at the lower end of the slide rod 413. Move the device, then release the button ring 423. The tension spring 433 will pull the movable plate 421 downward, causing the clamp head 422 to press against the ground inside the connector 5, thus completing the installation connection. When disassembling, push the movable plate 421 upward with the button ring 423 while rotating it clockwise. After rotating to the limit of the matching stroke of the limit rod 431 and the limit groove 424, the clamp head 422 will be aligned with the docking groove 6. Then release the button ring 423, and the tension spring 433 will pull the movable plate 421 and the clamp head 422 out of the connector 5. Then the frame assembly 41 can be pulled downward.

[0037] In summary, this UAV surveying device mounting bracket, through the coordinated use of the following components—body 1, landing feet 2, surveying instrument 3, mounting connection device 4, frame assembly 41, connecting frame 411, base plate 412, sliding rod 413, top plate 414, connecting assembly 42, moving plate 421, clamp 422, button ring 423, limiting groove 424, limiting tension assembly 43, limiting rod 431, rotating ring 432, tension spring 433, connector 5, docking groove 6, and anti-slip pad 7—solves the problem that existing UAV surveying instruments are typically fixed to the UAV using screws, which is cumbersome for installation and subsequent disassembly, and prone to stripping after a period of use, causing damage to both the UAV and the surveying instrument, thus leading to difficulties in disassembly and easy damage to the equipment.
