[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0026] An external attachment device for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipment includes a UAV structure 1, a mounting frame 3 is provided on the surface of the UAV structure 1, an adjustment frame 4 is provided on the surface of the mounting frame 3, a support plate 5 is bolted to the bottom of the adjustment frame 4, a fixing frame 6 is bolted to the bottom of the support plate 5, and an extension mechanism 2 is movably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 6.

[0027] The extension mechanism 2 includes a placement block 201, a movable block 202, and a fixing rod 203. The movable block 202 is bolted to the placement block 201 on the side closest to it. The top of the fixing rod 203 is bolted to the bottom of the movable block 202. The surface of the movable block 202 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 6. The surface of the fixing rod 203 is movably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 6.

[0028] In this embodiment: By setting the extension mechanism 2, when in use, the placement block 201 slides on the inner wall of the fixed frame 6 through the movable block 202 and the fixed rod 203, so that the placement block 201 moves to a suitable position, which facilitates the subsequent support plate 5 to bear the load and meet diverse usage scenarios. At the same time, the hanging frame 3 is easy to install quickly, which reduces the installation time of the hanging frame 3, reduces the operation process, improves work efficiency, and allows users to complete the equipment mounting and put it into use more quickly. By setting the hanging frame 3 and the adjustment frame 4, the adjustment frame 4 can move on the surface of the hanging frame 3, which can conveniently adjust the fixed height of the support plate 5. This makes the support plate 5 at the bottom of the UAV structure 1 adaptable to the equipment mounting requirements of different heights, improving the adaptability and versatility of the support plate 5 to different equipment.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the hanging rack 3 is threadedly connected with a limit bolt 7, and the inner wall of the hanging rack 3 is provided with a threaded hole 8 that cooperates with the limit bolt 7.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a knob 9 is movably connected to the inner wall of the adjustment frame 4, and the surface of the knob 9 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the hanging frame 3.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the adjustment frame 4 is provided with an adjustment groove 10 for use with the hanging frame 3, and the inner wall of the adjustment frame 4 is provided with a mounting hole 11 for use with the knob 9.

[0032] In this embodiment: By setting a limiting bolt 7, the limiting bolt 7 can rotate on the inner wall of the mounting bracket 3 through the threaded hole 8 during use, which can restrict the position of the mounting bracket 3 and prevent the mounting bracket 3 from accidentally falling off when it is installed with the UAV structure 1. By setting a knob 9, the knob 9 can be rotated on the inner wall of the adjusting frame 4 and the mounting bracket 3 during use, which can restrict the position of the adjusting frame 4 and make it easy to flexibly adjust the height of the bearing plate 5. The setting of the adjusting groove 10 and the mounting hole 11 provides a structural basis for the movement of the adjusting frame 4 and the installation of the knob 9, making the adjustment operation smoother and more convenient.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the surface of the fixing rod 203 is threadedly connected to the limiting block 12, and the top of the limiting block 12 is in close contact with the bottom of the fixing frame 6.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the inner wall of the fixed frame 6 is provided with a movable groove 13 that cooperates with the movable block 202, and the inner wall of the fixed frame 6 is provided with a limiting groove 14 that cooperates with the fixed rod 203.

[0035] In this embodiment: the threaded connection between the limiting block 12 and the fixing rod 203 can prevent the fixing rod 203 from moving unexpectedly during use, thus playing a limiting protection role and ensuring the stability and reliability of the extension mechanism 2. The movable slot 13 opened in the inner wall of the fixing frame 6 facilitates the movable block 202 to move through the movable slot 13 in the inner wall of the fixing frame 6. The limiting slot 14 opened in the inner wall of the fixing frame 6 facilitates the fixing rod 203 to move through the limiting slot 14 in the inner wall of the fixing frame 6.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, a connecting component 15 is bolted to the top of the placement block 201, and a pre-installed ring 16 is bolted to the top of the connecting component 15.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, pre-installed components 17 are bolted to both the left and right sides of the adjustment frame 4, and pre-installed holes 18 are provided on the inner wall of the pre-installed components 17.

[0038] In this embodiment: the connection component 15 and the pre-installed ring 16 are set so that they can be tied to the surface of the pre-installed ring 16 by an external fixing rope, which facilitates the auxiliary limiting work of the airborne equipment. The pre-installed component 17 is fixed by the position of the adjusting frame 4, which facilitates the subsequent use of the limiting railing or the limiting rope to fix it to the inner wall of the pre-installed component 17 by the staff, which facilitates the limiting work.

[0039] Working principle: During the use of the UAV structure 1, by setting up the extension mechanism 2, the placement block 201 slides on the inner wall of the fixed frame 6 through the movable block 202 and the fixed rod 203, so that the placement block 201 moves to a suitable position, which facilitates the subsequent support plate 5 to bear the load and meet diverse usage scenarios. At the same time, the mounting bracket 3 is easy to install quickly, reducing the installation time of the mounting bracket 3, reducing the operation process, improving work efficiency, and allowing users to complete the equipment mounting and put it into use more quickly. By setting up the mounting bracket 3 and the adjustment bracket 4, the adjustment bracket 4 can move on the surface of the mounting bracket 3, which can conveniently adjust the fixed height of the support plate 5. This allows the support plate 5 at the bottom of the UAV structure 1 to adapt to the equipment mounting requirements of different heights, improving the adaptability and versatility of the support plate 5 to different equipment.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
