[0038] By using the ground base station for the inspection unmanned aerial vehicle provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating box 300 rotates relative to the base 100, and the first cabin 301 and the second cabin 302 can all park the unmanned aerial vehicle. In the case that the first cabin 301 rotates to the upper side of the second cabin 302, the unmanned aerial vehicle in the first cabin 301 can perform the taking-off or landing operation and will not affect the unmanned aerial vehicle in the second cabin 302, and the risk of exposure is relatively low, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the remaining unmanned aerial vehicles. In the case that the second cabin 302 rotates to the upper side of the first cabin 301, the unmanned aerial vehicle in the second cabin 302 can perform the taking-off or landing operation, and the influence on the unmanned aerial vehicle in the first cabin 301 is relatively small.

[0039] It can be understood that the unmanned aerial vehicle after taking off is connected and controlled by the communication module 200.

[0040] It can be understood that the communication module 200 is a conventional communication module 200, which is a conventional technical means and prior art in the field.

In this way, the first cabin plate 320 and the second cabin plate 330 are both rotatably connected with the box body 310; the first cabin plate 320 is rotatably opened to enable the unmanned aerial vehicle in the first cabin 301 to take off or land. The second cabin plate 330 is rotatably opened to enable the unmanned aerial vehicle in the second cabin 302 to take off or land, which is more convenient and provides protection for the unmanned aerial vehicle.

[0043] It can be understood that the first cabin plate 320 can be opened when the first cabin 301 rotates to the upper side. The second cabin plate 330 can be opened when the second cabin 302 rotates to the upper side.

[0044] Optionally, the first cabin plate 320 and the second cabin plate 330 are both rotationally connected with the box body 310 through a connecting shaft 340, one end of each connecting shaft 340 is rotationally connected with the box body 310, the other end of the connecting shaft 340 is connected with the output end of the first motor 350, and the first motor 350 is connected with the box body 310. In this way, the first motor 350 provides power for the rotation of the connecting shaft 340, and the connecting shaft 340 in turn drives the corresponding first cabin plate 320 or second cabin plate 330 to rotate.

[0045] Optionally, the first cabin 301 is provided with a first positioning assembly 500, and the second cabin 302 is provided with a second positioning assembly 600. In this way, when the unmanned aerial vehicle lands in the first cabin 301 and on the partition table 400, the first positioning assembly 500 pushes the unmanned aerial vehicle to the middle position of the partition table 400, facilitating the next take-off of the unmanned aerial vehicle. Similarly, when the unmanned aerial vehicle lands in the second cabin 302 and on the partition table 400, the second positioning assembly 600 pushes the unmanned aerial vehicle to the middle position of the partition table 400, facilitating the next take-off of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

[0046] In combination with Figure 4 As shown in the drawings, optionally, the first positioning assembly 500 comprises a positioning slide 510 and a positioning slide rod 520.

In this way, the positioning slide 510 is in sliding connection with the partition table 400, the positioning slide rod 520 is in sliding connection with the positioning slide 510, and the positioning slide 510 and the positioning slide rod 520 are arranged vertically, which can push the unmanned aerial vehicle to move towards the middle position of the partition table 400 from multiple directions, facilitating the centering of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

[0047] Optionally, the positioning slide 510 and the partition table 400 have a gap; the positioning slide rod 520 and the partition table 400 have a gap. In this way, the legs of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be clamped between the positioning slide 510 and the partition table 400 and between the positioning slide rod 520 and the partition table 400, reducing the risk of the unmanned aerial vehicle falling off the partition table 400.

In this way, when the unmanned aerial vehicle lands on the partition table 400, the two positioning sliding frames 510 move towards each other from the two side edges of the partition table 400, and push the unmanned aerial vehicle to the middle of the partition table 400 from two directions, and at the same time, the positioning sliding rod 520 slides relative to the positioning sliding frame 510. The two positioning sliding rods 520 move towards each other from the two side edges of the partition table 400, and slide relative to the positioning sliding frame 510, and push the unmanned aerial vehicle to the middle of the partition table 400 from the other two directions, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle is placed in the middle, facilitating the next take-off of the unmanned aerial vehicle. It also reduces the risk of collision and interference between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the rotating box 300.

[0049] Optionally, the partition table 400 is provided with a guide groove 410 slidably connected with the positioning sliding frame 510. In this way, the risk of sliding deviation of the positioning sliding frame 510 is reduced.

[0050] Specifically, the guide groove 410 is provided with two.

[0051] Optionally, the two ends of each positioning sliding frame 510 are fixedly provided with a sliding rod 511 on the bottom side, and the sliding rod 511 is slidably connected with the guide groove 410 on the partition table 400. In this way, the sliding rod 511 cooperates with the guide groove 410 to reduce the risk of sliding deviation of the positioning sliding frame 510.

[0052] Optionally, the two side walls of the partition table are each provided with a mounting groove 420, and each mounting groove 420 is provided with an electric push rod 430, and the output end of each electric push rod 430 is connected with one of the sliding rods 511 on the positioning sliding frame 510, and the sliding rod 511 extends into the mounting groove 420 through the guide groove 410. In this way, the electric push rod 430 provides power for the sliding of the sliding rod 511 in the guide groove 410, thereby driving the positioning sliding frame 510 to move.

[0053] Specifically, the guide groove 410 is in communication with the mounting groove 420.

[0054] In combination with Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, optionally, the positioning sliding frame 510 is provided with a sliding hole 512 slidably connected with the positioning sliding rod 520. In this way, the positioning sliding rod 520 extends into the sliding hole 512 and slides with the positioning sliding frame 510, reducing the risk of sliding deviation of the positioning sliding rod 520.

In this way, the bidirectional screw rod 513 rotates to drive the sliding block 514 to move, and then drives the positioning sliding rod 520 to slide relative to the positioning sliding frame 510, so that the two positioning sliding rods 520 move close to or away from each other.

[0056] Optionally, each positioning sliding frame 510 is provided with a second motor 515, and the output end of each second motor 515 is connected with a bidirectional screw rod 513. In this way, the second motor 515 provides power for the rotation of the bidirectional screw rod 513.
