Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drone mounting technology, and in particular relates to a detachable mounting bracket for the lower part of a drone. Background Technology

[0002] A drone undermount mount is a piece of equipment specifically designed for drones. Its main function is to connect and support various mounted devices or loads on the underside of the drone. These mounts are typically designed to be both robust and lightweight to ensure the stability and safety of the mounted equipment during flight.

[0003] Traditional drone mounts are mostly fixedly integrated with the drone body. This design not only limits the drone's operational flexibility, but also inevitably increases the overall size of the drone due to the large volume occupied by the mount, making it inconvenient for portability and storage. More importantly, once this fixed mount is damaged, users usually cannot replace it themselves, which not only directly affects the normal use of the drone, but may also lead to additional maintenance costs due to the need to seek professional repair services.

[0004] Therefore, a detachable mounting bracket for the lower part of the drone is particularly needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of traditional drone mounting brackets, which increase the size of the drone, affect portability and storage, and are difficult to replace after damage, thus increasing maintenance costs, this utility model provides a detachable mounting bracket for the lower part of the drone.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical means: a detachable mounting bracket for the lower part of a drone, including a drone body and a first fixed base. The first fixed base is snapped into the bottom of the drone body. A locking component is provided between the drone body and the first fixed base. A second fixed base is inserted into the bottom of the first fixed base. The bottom end of the second fixed base bends outward and extends outward. The outwardly bent part is fixedly connected to multiple connectors arranged in a rectangular array. Multiple hydraulic damping components are provided on the top surface of the second fixed base.

[0007] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a wedge-shaped locking block, a first spring, a pressing plate, a connecting rod, a second spring, and a push plate. One end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the upper position of the left and right sides of the first fixed base, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the wedge-shaped locking block. The wedge-shaped locking block is slidably connected to the first fixed base. Slots are provided on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the drone body. The wedge-shaped locking block engages with the corresponding slot. The pressing plate is slidably connected to the drone body at the corresponding position of the slot. The connecting rod is fixedly connected to the side of the pressing plate near the first fixed base. The push plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod and is in close contact with the lowest point of the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped locking block. The connecting rod is fitted with a second spring.

[0008] Furthermore, two first springs are installed on each of the left and right sides of the first fixed seat, and the number of connecting rods and push plates is the same. Each push plate on the left and right sides of the first fixed seat is provided with two connecting rods.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a reinforcing plate, with two reinforcing plates distributed one behind the other, fixedly connected to the lower part of the first fixing base and in close contact with the drone body, and each reinforcing plate has two threaded holes that match the reserved holes on the drone body.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes shock-absorbing springs, each of which is sleeved on the outside of each hydraulic damping assembly, with its two ends fixedly connected to the first fixed seat and the second fixed seat, respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a sponge ring, which is wrapped around the position between the first fixing seat and the second fixing seat.

[0012] Furthermore, each reinforcing plate has multiple triangular plates at its corners.

[0013] Beneficial effects: The design of the locking component enables quick installation and removal of the first mounting bracket. Users can quickly complete the entire installation or removal process by performing simple operations. This feature facilitates the carrying and storage of drones. At the same time, users can easily replace the bracket themselves when it is damaged, effectively reducing maintenance costs.

[0014] By combining the shock-absorbing springs and hydraulic damping components, the vibration amplitude of the mounted equipment during flight is reduced, improving the stability and service life of the mounted equipment. Furthermore, the sponge ring further absorbs the vibration energy and prevents the second fixed seat from directly colliding with the first fixed seat to generate noise, thus reducing the impact of noise on the environment around the UAV.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example: A detachable mounting bracket for the lower part of the drone, such as... Figures 1-7As shown, the device includes a drone body 1, a first mounting base 2, a reinforcing plate 21, a locking assembly, a second mounting base 7, a shock-absorbing spring 71, a hydraulic damping assembly 72, a foam ring 73, and connectors 8. The first mounting base 2 is snapped onto the bottom of the drone body 1. The locking assembly for locking the first mounting base 2 is located between the drone body 1 and the first mounting base 2. The bottom of the first mounting base 2 is plugged into the second mounting base 7. The bottom end of the second mounting base 7 bends outward. Four connectors 8 arranged in a rectangular array are welded to the outer part of the bottom of the second mounting base 7. The top surface of the second mounting base 7 is provided with four connectors distributed at the four corners. The hydraulic damping assembly 72 has four shock-absorbing springs 71, which are all sleeved on the outside of each hydraulic damping assembly 72. Two reinforcing plates 21 are welded to the lower end of the first fixed seat 2 and are distributed front and back, and are in close contact with the drone body 1. Each reinforcing plate 21 has two threaded holes that match the reserved holes on the drone body 1. Through the connection of screws, the reinforcing plates 21 can be in close and stable contact with and connected to the drone body 1. Each reinforcing plate 21 has seven triangular plates at the corner to enhance the structural strength of the reinforcing plate 21. A sponge ring 73 is bonded and wrapped around the first fixed seat 2 and the second fixed seat 7.

[0025] like Figures 2-5 and Figure 7As shown, the locking assembly includes a wedge-shaped locking block 3, a first spring 31, a pressing plate 5, a connecting rod 51, a second spring 52, and a push plate 6. First springs 31 are installed at the upper ends of both sides of the first fixed base 2. Two longitudinally distributed first springs 31 form a group, and there are two groups in total. The other end of the outer side of the first spring 31 is fixedly connected to the wedge-shaped locking block 3. The wedge-shaped locking block 3 is slidably connected to the first fixed base 2. Each wedge-shaped locking block 3 has an inclined surface that slopes upwards from the inside to downwards from the outside. Both groups of first springs 31 are located in the upper inner part of the first fixed base 2. Slots 4 are provided on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the drone body 1. Two wedge-shaped locking blocks 3 correspond one-to-one with two slots 4 and lock in place. The first fixed base 2 is locked onto the drone body 1 through a series of connections. Two pressing plates 5 are distributed left and right and slidably connected to the drone body 1. Two longitudinally distributed connecting rods 51 form a group, with two groups in total. Each group of connecting rods 51 is welded to the side of each pressing plate 5 near the first fixed base 2, and one end of each connecting rod 51 near the first fixed base 2 passes through the drone body 1 and extends into the corresponding slot 4. Each push plate 6 is welded to the other end of each connecting rod 51. Each second spring 52 is sleeved on the outside of each connecting rod 51, and its two ends are fixedly connected to the corresponding pressing plate 5 and the corresponding push plate 6, respectively. When no external force is applied, the outer surface of the pressing plate 5 is on the same plane as the outer side of the drone body 1. The push plate 6, connected to the connecting rod 51 and the second spring 52, is located inside the corresponding slot 4 and is in close contact with the lowest point of the inclined surface of the corresponding wedge-shaped block 3. When the push plate 6 slides along the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 3 to the highest point of the inclined surface, it pushes the wedge-shaped block 3 completely into the interior of the first fixed base 2. The second spring 52, fitted onto the connecting rod, can absorb vibration and impact energy, thus increasing the equipment's durability.

[0026] Initially, the wedge-shaped locking block 3 and the slot 4 are engaged, locking the first fixed seat 2. When the first fixed seat 2 needs to be disassembled, the user directly presses the pressing plate 5, causing the connecting rod 51 to drive the push plate 6 to move inward. The push plate 6 then squeezes the wedge-shaped locking block 3, causing it to slide into the first fixed seat 2 and disengage from the slot 4. At the same time, the second spring 52 and the first spring 31 are compressed. At this time, the second fixed seat 7 is pulled down, causing the first fixed seat 2 to disengage from the drone body 1, realizing the quick disassembly of the first fixed seat 2. After disassembly, the first spring 31 returns to its original state, causing the wedge-shaped locking block 3 to pop out from the first fixed seat 2. Then, the pressing plate 5 is released, and the second spring 52 returns to its original state, causing the pressing plate 5 to move outward, causing the connecting rod 51 to drive the push plate 6 to move outward to the initial position.

[0027] When the drone body 1 is carried to the designated location and the first mounting base 2 needs to be reinstalled, firstly align the first mounting base 2 with the drone body 1 and slowly insert it into the drone body 1. During this process, the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 3 contacts the drone body 1 and slides into the first mounting base 2 under its pressure. At the same time, the first spring 31 is compressed. When the first mounting base 2 is fully inserted, the wedge-shaped block 3 is aligned with the slot 4. At this time, the first spring 31 returns to its original state, causing the wedge-shaped block 3 to pop out from the first mounting base 2 and lock into the slot 4, thereby locking the first mounting base 2 from the left and right directions and completing the quick installation of the first mounting base 2. Then, use tools to screw the prepared bolts between the reinforcing plate 21 and the drone body 1 to further reinforce the first mounting base 2 from the front and back directions. Finally, the equipment to be mounted is securely installed on the second mounting base 7 through the connector 8.

[0028] When the drone body 1 bounces up and down during flight, the mounting equipment also sways up and down with the movement of the drone body 1. At this time, the second fixed seat 7 moves up and down with the mounting equipment, absorbing and dispersing vibration energy by squeezing and stretching the shock-absorbing spring 71. At the same time, the hydraulic damping component 72 plays a role, slowing down the movement speed of the second fixed seat 7 through its internal damping force. In addition, the sponge ring 73 deforms and returns to its original shape as the second fixed seat 7 shakes up and down, further absorbing vibration energy and preventing the second fixed seat 7 from directly colliding with the first fixed seat 2 and causing noise.

[0029] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
