Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grasping equipment technology, and in particular to a rapid grasping device for ground stations. Background Technology

[0002] Flying cars, also known as electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, combine the characteristics of airplanes and cars. They use electricity as a propulsion method and have the ability to take off and land vertically. Flying cars can achieve rapid and stable flight and landing in the air, which greatly shortens people's travel time and may have a significant impact on reducing traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions. However, after a flying car lands at a ground station, it is often necessary to use grabbing equipment to quickly transfer the flying car in order to achieve rapid clearance.

[0003] Existing ground stations mostly use a wheeled, wheeled motor that drives a forklift. Personnel manually control the motor's speed and direction using a joystick. When the forklift moves to a position under the flying car chassis, the internal drive mechanism lifts the forklift, which then picks up the flying car and is transferred to a chassis trailer for transport, thus achieving rapid retrieval and clearing of the flying car.

[0004] However, during the transport of the flying car, the aircraft may encounter obstacles and brake suddenly, causing the flying car to slide away from the aircraft due to the inertia of the sudden braking. This could result in the flying car slipping off the fork and being damaged, affecting the safety of transporting the flying car. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that during the transport of a flying car, the aircraft may encounter obstacles and brake suddenly, causing the flying car to slide away from the aircraft due to the inertia of the sudden braking, resulting in the flying car slipping off the fork and being damaged, thus affecting the safety of transporting the flying car.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a ground station rapid grabbing device, including a body, a power button is provided on one side of the body, a control lever is provided on one side of the body, a fork plate is provided on one side of the body, and an interception device is provided on one side of the fork plate to block and limit the grabbing flying car away from the body.

[0007] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: First, the machine is started by pressing the power button. The internal drive mechanism, along with the wheels, assists in the movement of the machine. Then, personnel manually control the speed and direction of the machine using a control lever. When the fork moves to the position below the chassis of the flying car, the internal drive mechanism lifts the fork, which then picks up the flying car during the lifting process. The machine then transports the flying car onto the chassis trailer for transfer, thus achieving rapid retrieval and clearing of the flying car.

[0008] Preferably, the interception device includes a rectangular groove formed on one side of the fork plate, a perforated plate fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove, an auxiliary device provided on one side of the perforated plate, an electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove, the electric telescopic rod passing through the perforated plate, a support frame fixedly connected to the moving end of the electric telescopic rod, the support frame sliding inside the rectangular groove, a self-locking motor fixedly connected to one side of the support frame, a hollow rod provided inside the support frame, and the output end of the self-locking motor fixedly connected to the hollow rod.

[0009] The aforementioned components achieve the following effect: By setting up an interception device, when the fork lifts the flying car, the self-locking motor is activated, causing the self-locking motor to drive the hollow rod to rotate along the inside of the support frame towards the fuselage. When the hollow rod rotates to a position perpendicular to the fork, the electric telescopic rod is activated, causing the electric telescopic rod to drive the support frame and the hollow rod towards the fuselage. During the movement, the hollow rod presses against the surface of the flying car and intercepts the side of the flying car away from the fuselage, thereby achieving auxiliary limiting of the flying car. This reduces the possibility of the flying car sliding away from the fuselage and falling and being damaged due to inertia caused by sudden braking during the process of grabbing and transporting the flying car, thus improving the safety of the flying car during the grabbing and transport process.

[0010] Preferably, a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the side of the hollow rod away from the support frame, and the surface of the rubber pad is annular.

[0011] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting rubber pads, the rubber pads can separate the flying car from the surface of the hollow rod, reducing the wear and tear on the surface of the flying car when the hollow rod is squeezed, while improving the fit and sealing between the two.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the hollow rod is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs, which are arranged at equal intervals, and the reinforcing ribs are made of steel.

[0013] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting reinforcing ribs, the reinforcing ribs can provide auxiliary support and reinforcement to the hollow rod, increase the strength of the hollow rod itself, and reduce the possibility of deformation or breakage of the hollow rod under stress during use.

[0014] Preferably, a reinforcing block is fixedly connected to one end of the electric telescopic rod near the support frame, and the reinforcing block is fixedly connected to the support frame.

[0015] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up the reinforcing blocks, the connection strength between the electric telescopic rod and the support frame can be increased, reducing the possibility of separation between the two when the electric telescopic rod pulls the support frame to move.

[0016] Preferably, the inner wall of the rectangular groove is provided with a limiting groove, and a limiting block is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame, wherein the limiting block slides along the inside of the limiting groove.

[0017] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting the limiting block and the limiting groove, the limiting block can be located inside the limiting groove to assist in limiting the support frame and reduce the shaking of the support frame during use.

[0018] Preferably, the auxiliary device includes a cylinder, which is fixedly connected to a perforated plate. A flexible tube is fixedly connected to one end of the cylinder, and the other end of the flexible tube is fixedly connected to a hollow rod. A piston rod is slidably connected inside the cylinder, and a push rod is fixedly connected to the end of the piston rod away from the flexible tube. The other end of the push rod is fixedly connected to the moving end of an electric telescopic rod.

[0019] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is as follows: By setting up an auxiliary device, when the electric telescopic rod moves the hollow rod, it drives the push rod to move closer to the body, causing the push rod to drive the piston rod to move along the inside of the cylinder. During the movement of the piston rod, the air inside the cylinder, hose and hollow rod is extracted. Under the sealing effect of the rubber pad at the contact point between the hollow rod and the flying car, a suction force is generated at the contact point between the hollow rod and the flying car, so that the hollow rod and the flying car are tightly attracted to each other. This achieves auxiliary limiting of the flying car, reduces the possibility of the hollow rod slipping when intercepting the flying car, and further improves the limiting effect of the interception device on the flying car.

[0020] Preferably, a sleeve rod is fixedly connected to the side of the fork plate near the rectangular groove, wherein a flexible tube is inserted inside the sleeve rod.

[0021] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting the sleeve rod, the sleeve rod can be fitted onto the side of the hose near the cylinder and limit its position, reducing the long-term shaking of the hose near the cylinder and affecting the stability of the connection between the two.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] By setting up an interception device, the side of the flying car away from the aircraft can be blocked, and the fork plate can be used to quickly grab the flying car. This reduces the possibility of the flying car sliding away from the aircraft and falling and being damaged due to inertia caused by sudden braking during the grabbing and transportation process, thus improving the safety of the flying car during the grabbing and transportation process.

[0032] Figure 1-4The ground station rapid grabbing device shown includes a body 1, a power button 2 on one side of the body 1, a control lever 3 on one side of the body 1, a fork plate 4 on one side of the body 1, and an interception device 5 on one side of the fork plate 4 to block and limit the grabbing flying car away from the body 1. First, the body 1 is started by the power button 2. The internal drive mechanism of the body 1, in conjunction with the wheels, moves the body 1. Then, the personnel manually operate the control lever 3 to control the speed and direction of the movement of the body 1. When the fork plate 4 moves to the position where it is inserted under the chassis of the flying car, the internal drive mechanism of the body 1 drives the fork plate 4 to lift and move. Then, the fork plate 4 grabs the flying car during the lifting process, and the body 1 transports it to the chassis trailer for transfer, thereby achieving rapid grabbing and clearing of the flying car.

[0033] Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The interception device 5 shown includes a rectangular groove 51 formed on one side of the fork plate 4. A perforated plate 52 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove 51. An auxiliary device 6 is provided on one side of the perforated plate 52. An electric telescopic rod 54 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove 51. The electric telescopic rod 54 passes through the perforated plate 52. A support frame 55 is fixedly connected to the moving end of the electric telescopic rod 54. The support frame 55 slides inside the rectangular groove 51. A self-locking motor 56 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 55. A hollow rod 57 is provided inside the support frame 55. The output end of the self-locking motor 56 is fixedly connected to the hollow rod 57. By setting up the interception device 5, when the fork plate 4 lifts the flying car, the self-locking motor 56 is activated, causing the self-locking motor to... The machine 56 drives the hollow rod 57 to rotate along the inside of the support frame 55 towards the body 1. When the hollow rod 57 rotates to a position perpendicular to the fork plate 4, the electric telescopic rod 54 is activated. This causes the electric telescopic rod 54 to move the support frame 55 and the hollow rod 57 towards the body 1. During the movement, the hollow rod 57 presses against the surface of the flying car and intercepts the side of the flying car away from the body 1, thereby achieving auxiliary limiting of the flying car. This reduces the possibility of the flying car sliding away from the body 1 and falling and being damaged due to inertia caused by sudden braking during the grabbing and transporting process. This improves the safety of the flying car during the grabbing and transporting process.

[0034] Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4A rubber pad 58 is fixedly connected to the side of the hollow rod 57 away from the support frame 55. The surface of the rubber pad 58 is annular. By setting the rubber pad 58, the rubber pad 58 can separate the flying car from the surface of the hollow rod 57, reducing the possibility of the hollow rod 57 causing significant wear to the surface of the flying car when it is squeezed. At the same time, it improves the fit and sealing between the two. The surface of the hollow rod 57 is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs 59, which are arranged at equal intervals. The reinforcing ribs 59 are made of steel. By setting the reinforcing ribs 59, the reinforcing ribs 59 can provide auxiliary support and reinforcement for the hollow rod 57, increasing the strength of the hollow rod 57 and reducing the possibility of deformation or breakage of the hollow rod 57 under stress during use.

[0035] Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A reinforcing block 511 is fixedly connected to one end of the electric telescopic rod 54 near the support frame 55. The reinforcing block 511 is fixedly connected to the support frame 55. By setting the reinforcing block 511, the connection strength between the electric telescopic rod 54 and the support frame 55 can be increased, reducing the possibility of separation when the electric telescopic rod 54 pulls the support frame 55. A limiting groove 53 is opened on the inner wall of the rectangular groove 51. A limiting block 510 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 55. The limiting block 510 slides along the inside of the limiting groove 53. By setting the limiting block 510 and the limiting groove 53, the limiting block 510 can be located inside the limiting groove 53 to assist in limiting the support frame 55, reducing the swaying of the support frame 55 during use.

[0036] Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The auxiliary device 6 shown includes a cylinder 61, which is fixedly connected to a perforated plate 52. A flexible hose 64 is fixedly connected to one end of the cylinder 61, and the other end of the flexible hose 64 is fixedly connected to a hollow rod 57. A piston rod 62 is slidably connected inside the cylinder 61. A push rod 63 is fixedly connected to the end of the piston rod 62 away from the flexible hose 64. The other end of the push rod 63 is fixedly connected to the moving end of the electric telescopic rod 54. By setting the auxiliary device 6, when the electric telescopic rod 54 moves the hollow rod 57, it drives the push rod 63 to move closer to the machine body 1, so that the push rod 63 moves... The piston rod 62 moves inside the cylinder 61, causing it to extract air from the cylinder 61, hose 64, and hollow rod 57 during its movement. The rubber pad 58 seals the contact point between the hollow rod 57 and the flying car, creating suction at this point. This ensures a tight seal between the hollow rod 57 and the flying car, thus providing auxiliary restraint for the flying car and reducing the likelihood of the hollow rod 57 slipping during interception. This further improves the restraint effect of the interception device 5 on the flying car.

[0037] Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The fork plate 4 shown is fixedly connected to a sleeve rod 65 on the side near the rectangular groove 51. The flexible hose 64 is inserted inside the sleeve rod 65. By setting the sleeve rod 65, the sleeve rod 65 can be sleeved on the side of the flexible hose 64 near the cylinder 61 and limit its position, reducing the long-term shaking of the side of the flexible hose 64 near the cylinder 61, which affects the stability of the connection between the two.

[0038] Working principle: First, start the machine body 1 by pressing the power button 2. The internal drive mechanism of the machine body 1, together with the wheels, assists in moving the machine body 1. Then, the operator controls the moving speed and direction of the machine body 1 by manually operating the control lever 3. When the fork plate 4 moves to the position below the chassis of the flying car, the internal drive mechanism of the machine body 1 drives the fork plate 4 to lift and move. Then, during the lifting process, the fork plate 4 picks up the flying car and the machine body 1 transports it to the chassis trailer for transfer, thereby achieving rapid grabbing and clearing of the flying car.

[0039] When the fork plate 4 lifts the flying car, the self-locking motor 56 is activated, causing the hollow rod 57 to rotate along the inside of the support frame 55 towards the fuselage 1. When the hollow rod 57 rotates to a position perpendicular to the fork plate 4, the electric telescopic rod 54 is activated, causing the electric telescopic rod 54 to move the support frame 55 and the hollow rod 57 towards the fuselage 1. During this movement, the hollow rod 57 presses against the surface of the flying car and intercepts the side of the flying car away from the fuselage 1. At the same time, the electric telescopic rod 54 moves... During the movement, the push rod 63 is moved closer to the body 1, causing the push rod 63 to move the piston rod 62 along the inside of the cylinder 61. As the piston rod 62 moves, it draws out the air from the cylinder 61, the hose 64, and the hollow rod 57. With the rubber pad 58 sealing the contact point between the hollow rod 57 and the flying car, a suction force is generated at the contact point between the hollow rod 57 and the flying car, causing the hollow rod 57 and the flying car to adhere tightly, thereby achieving the interception and limitation of the flying car on the side away from the body 1.

[0040] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
