Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically relating to an aerial reconnaissance searchlight system for UAVs. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of drone technology, not only have operational methods in fields such as military reconnaissance, public safety monitoring, environmental monitoring, and disaster relief been revolutionized, but these fields have also been greatly propelled towards greater efficiency and intelligence. Drone reconnaissance, with its advantages of rapid response, remote operation, and flexible deployment, has become an indispensable tool in modern military reconnaissance, public safety monitoring, environmental monitoring, and disaster relief. The advantage of drone reconnaissance lies in its ability to quickly reach complex or inaccessible areas, transmitting reconnaissance images and data in real time, providing decision-makers with crucial information. Especially at night or in low-light conditions, the capabilities of drone reconnaissance are paramount, as it can capture details and targets that are difficult to detect during the day. To meet the reconnaissance needs in nighttime or low-light conditions, drones typically need to be equipped with searchlight systems to enhance illumination.

[0003] However, current drones require reconnaissance equipment to be mounted on their bottom. Due to the generally small size of drones, there is often no space to install searchlight components after mounting the reconnaissance equipment on the bottom. Usually, the searchlight components are installed on the top of the drone. Since the searchlight needs to shine downwards during reconnaissance, the drone's body and arms can easily block the light source, reducing the detection effect and causing considerable inconvenience to users. To address these issues, the applicant proposes an aerial reconnaissance searchlight system for drones. Utility Model Content

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] Please see Figure 1, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, an aerial reconnaissance searchlight system for unmanned aerial vehicles includes:

[0030] Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) component 1 and searchlight component 2 mounted on UAV component 1;

[0031] The drone component 1 includes a drone body 11, and propeller arms 12 are connected around the drone body 11.

[0032] The searchlight assembly 2 includes a clamping base 21, with a clamping frame 22 hinged to the top of the clamping base 21. The clamping base 21 is clamped and fixed to the propeller arm 12. A fixing frame 25 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the clamping base 21. A mounting sleeve 27 is hinged to the bottom of the fixing frame 25. A lighting lamp 29 is fitted inside the mounting sleeve 27.

[0033] As can be seen from the above, by engaging the clamping seat 21 and clamping frame 22 at appropriate positions on the propeller arm 12 during use, the propeller arm 12 can be easily clamped and fixed. By inserting the lighting lamp 29 into the mounting sleeve 27 and pushing the lighting lamp 29 back and forth along the mounting sleeve 27 to position the lighting lamp 29 in a suitable position within the mounting sleeve 27 and fixing the lighting lamp 29, the lighting lamp 29 can be positioned below the propeller arm 12. This ensures that when the lighting lamp 29 shines downwards, the UAV body 11 and the propeller arm 12 will not block the emitted light, thus ensuring an unobstructed light effect during nighttime illumination. At the same time, the position of the entire searchlight assembly 2 is far away from the installation position of the reconnaissance equipment at the bottom of the UAV body 11, so as not to affect the use of the reconnaissance equipment installed at the bottom of the UAV body 11. This effectively improves the illumination effect of the lighting lamp 29 and brings more convenience to the user.

[0034] The searchlight assembly 2 can be used in nighttime reconnaissance, search and rescue, and patrol missions of UAVs. When reconnaissance and patrol of flat ground are required at night, the mounting sleeve 27 can be flipped before takeoff to adjust the lighting lamp 29 to a suitable tilt angle. During the flight of the UAV body 11, the light source of the lighting lamp 29 shines light on the ground at an angle downwards. With two sets of lighting lamps 29 distributed on both sides of the UAV body 11, the illumination area can be effectively expanded. Compared with the lighting effect of traditional lighting methods, at the same flight altitude and speed, the searchlight assembly 2 can provide an illumination range with a diameter of up to 300 meters at night, which is more than 30% higher than traditional lighting methods. At a distance of 100 meters from the center of illumination, the illumination intensity is still maintained above 50 lux. The searchlight assembly 2 can provide a clearer and more accurate field of vision, making it easier for reconnaissance personnel to find targets, which is sufficient to meet the needs of nighttime reconnaissance, search and rescue, and patrol missions. During flight, the searchlight assembly 2 remains stable without shaking or falling off, ensuring the continuity of the illumination effect.

[0035] In different environments, such as mountains, forests, and cities, the angle of the lighting lamp 29 needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation. The direction of the light can be changed by rotating the mounting sleeve 27. In mountainous environments, the angle of the lighting lamp 29 can be adjusted to tilt downwards to illuminate the terrain in front. In urban environments, the angle of the lighting lamp 29 can be adjusted to be horizontal or slightly upwards to illuminate buildings further away. This brings more convenience to tasks such as night reconnaissance, search and rescue, and patrol. After use, turn off the power of the drone body 11. After ensuring safety, unscrew the fixing knob 28 at the bottom of the mounting sleeve 27, remove the old lighting lamp 29 from the mounting sleeve 27, insert the new lighting lamp 29, and fix it again to facilitate the replacement of the lighting lamp 29.

[0036] Depend on Figure 3 It can be seen that support frames 13 are fixedly installed on both sides of the drone body 11, and support plates 14 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frames 13.

[0037] As can be seen from the above, the support frame 13 can provide support for the support plate 14, and the support plate 14 can support both sides of the UAV body 11, so that the searchlight assembly 2 and the reconnaissance equipment at the bottom of the UAV body 11 can be kept away from the ground, avoiding collisions between the searchlight assembly 2 and the reconnaissance equipment at the bottom of the UAV body 11. At the same time, it can facilitate the landing support operation of the UAV body 11 during use, and prevent the UAV body 11 from tipping over when landing.

[0038] For details, please refer to Figure 3As shown, a mounting base 15 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body 11, and a mounting hole 16 is provided on the mounting base 15.

[0039] As can be seen from the above, the reconnaissance equipment can be easily fixed to the bottom of the mounting base 15 using bolts through the mounting hole 16, which makes it convenient for the UAV body 11 to carry the reconnaissance equipment for reconnaissance operations. At the same time, the mounting base 15 is located at the bottom of the UAV body 11, which does not affect the use of the searchlight assembly 2 and can avoid blocking the light.

[0040] For details, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, anti-slip pads 210 are attached to the inner walls of the clamping base 21 and the clamping frame 22. The anti-slip pads 210 are made of rubber material.

[0041] As can be seen from the above, when the clamping seat 21 and the clamping frame 22 are clamped and fixed on the propeller arm 12, the anti-slip pad 210 can be used to increase the friction between the clamping seat 21 and the clamping frame 22 and the propeller arm 12, avoid slippage, and improve the stability of clamping.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] refer to Figure 5 As shown, the clamping seat 21 and the clamping frame 22 are hinged together by a movable shaft 212, and a thrust spring 24 is hinged between the clamping seat 21 and the fixed frame 25.

[0044] As can be seen from the above, the clamping frame 22 can be flipped through the movable shaft 212, which makes it convenient to open and close the clamping frame 22.

[0045] refer to Figure 5 As shown, a pressing seat 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the clamping frame 22, and anti-slip strips 211 are distributed on the top of the pressing seat 23.

[0046] As can be seen from the above, pressing the pressing seat 23 can easily open the clamping frame 22, which can easily separate the clamping frame 22 from the clamping seat 21 from the propeller arm 12, and facilitate the disassembly of the searchlight assembly 2.

[0047] refer to Figure 4 As shown, the mounting bracket 25 and the mounting sleeve 27 are hinged together by the limiting pivot 26, and the mounting sleeve 27 and the lighting lamp 29 are fixed together by the fixing knob 28.

[0048] As can be seen from the above, the mounting sleeve 27 can be flipped by the limiting pivot 26. At the same time, the mounting sleeve 27 can be automatically fixed when it is flipped to a certain angle, which makes it convenient to adjust the lighting lamp 29 to a suitable illumination angle.

[0049] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
