[0001] This utility model is a battery mounting mechanism for a medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), belonging to the field of UAV mechanical structures. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the market uses vertical motor power supply for medium-sized drones, which is a connector-to-plug power supply. In this power supply method, the battery is often fixed with soft fasteners such as straps or hard connections such as bolts. This connection method can easily damage the battery and makes it inconvenient to disassemble and maintain the battery. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a battery mounting mechanism for medium-sized drones.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0005] A battery mounting mechanism for a medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a mounting slot formed on the fuselage, two sets of support seats symmetrically mounted inside the mounting slot, a battery body placed on the support seats, and a snap-fit ​​mechanism between the battery body and the mounting slot.

[0006] Furthermore, the latching mechanism includes a latch fixed to the top of the inner wall of one side of the mounting groove and a switch groove opened on the top side of the battery body. The switch groove has a movable opening on one side that extends to the bottom of the battery body. A spring is provided on the other side of the switch groove. A pin is provided in the switch groove and above the movable opening. A disassembly switch is rotatably connected to the pin.

[0007] Furthermore, the disassembly switch has an L-shaped structure, and the outer surface of the vertical section of the disassembly switch has a groove that cooperates with the latch. The bottom of the horizontal section of the disassembly switch is pressed together with the top of the spring.

[0008] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided on the top of the disassembly switch.

[0009] Furthermore, pulleys are installed on the symmetrical side of the support bases on both sides, and a slide rail that cooperates with the pulleys is opened on the outer surface of the battery body.

[0010] Furthermore, a positioning pin is provided on one side of the bottom of the battery body, and a positioning plate is installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove. The positioning plate has a positioning hole that cooperates with the positioning pin.

[0011] Furthermore, a handle is provided on the top of the battery body, and a power interface is provided on the bottom of the battery body and on the side of the positioning pin.

[0012] Furthermore, the support base is made of metal profiles and is connected and fixed to the internal load-bearing frame beam of the fuselage.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] Through the design of the snap-fit ​​mechanism, when the battery body is aligned with the mounting slot on the device body, as the battery body descends, the disassembly switch on the battery body will gradually align with the latch. At the same time, under the action of the spring, the disassembly switch can be pushed to snap into the latch, thereby achieving the snap-fit ​​fixation of the battery body and the device body.

[0015] Thanks to the snap-fit ​​mechanism, when the battery body needs to be removed, pressing the side of the disassembly switch overcomes the spring force and pushes the disassembly switch to rotate. As the disassembly switch rotates around the pin, it gradually disengages from the latch, thereby releasing the connection between the battery body and the device body. The battery body can then be pulled out of the device body using the handle.

[0016] Through the design of pulleys and rails, the pulleys are fixed on the support base, and the rails on the battery body are interference-fitted, playing a positioning and guiding role.

[0017] The design of the positioning pins and positioning holes allows the battery body to be precisely positioned with the mounting slot on the device. Attached Figure Description

[0033] 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.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-13 This utility model provides a technical solution for a battery mounting mechanism for a medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), including a mounting groove 8 on the fuselage 2. Two sets of support seats 7 are symmetrically installed inside the mounting groove 8. The support seats 7 are made of metal profiles and are connected and fixed to the internal load-bearing frame beam of the fuselage 2. A battery body 1 is placed on the support seats 7, and a snap-fit ​​mechanism is provided between the battery body 1 and the mounting groove 8. Through the design of the snap-fit ​​mechanism, when the battery body 1 is connected to the mounting groove 8 on the fuselage 2, during the descent of the battery body 1, the disassembly switch 3 on the battery body 1 will gradually engage with the latch 5. At the same time, under the action of the spring 11, the disassembly switch 3 can be pushed to engage with the latch 5, thereby realizing the snap-fit ​​fixation of the battery body 1 and the fuselage 2.

[0035] See Figures 7-12 The latching mechanism includes a latch 5 fixed to the top of the inner wall of one side of the mounting groove 8 and a switch groove 9 opened on the top side of the battery body 1. The switch groove 9 has a movable opening on one side that extends to the bottom of the battery body 1. A spring 11 is provided on the other side of the switch groove 9. A pin 10 is provided in the switch groove 9 and above the movable opening. A disassembly switch 3 is rotatably connected to the pin 10. The disassembly switch 3 has an L-shaped structure. The outer surface of the vertical section of the disassembly switch 3 has a latching groove that cooperates with the latch 5. The bottom of the horizontal section of the disassembly switch 3 is pressed together with the top of the spring 11. Through the design of the latching mechanism, when it is necessary to remove the battery body 1, the side of the disassembly switch 3 is pressed to overcome the elastic force of the spring 11 and push the disassembly switch 3 to rotate. As the disassembly switch 3 rotates around the pin 10, it can gradually disengage from the latch 5, thereby releasing the connection between the battery body 1 and the body 2. The battery body 1 can then be pulled off the body 2 by the handle 4.

[0036] See Figure 10 and Figure 11 The top of the disassembly switch 3 is provided with a rubber pad 12; the design of the rubber pad 12 improves the comfort of the disassembly switch 13.

[0037] See Figures 5-9 Each of the two sides of the support base 7 is equipped with a pulley 6 on one side. The outer surface of the battery body 1 is provided with a slide rail 13 that cooperates with the pulley 6. Through the design of the pulley 6 and the slide rail 13, the pulley 6 is fixed on the support base 7, and the slide rail 13 on the battery body 1 is interference fit, which plays a positioning and guiding role.

[0038] See Figure 5 , Figures 7-9The battery body 1 has a positioning pin 14 on one side of its bottom, and a positioning plate is installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 8. The positioning plate has a positioning hole 15 that cooperates with the positioning pin 14. Through the design of the positioning pin 14 and the positioning hole 15, the battery body 1 is precisely positioned with the mounting groove 8 on the body 2.

[0039] See Figure 7 The battery body 1 has a handle 4 on its top and a power interface 16 on its bottom and side of the positioning pin 14. The handle 4 makes it easy to remove the battery body 1.

[0040] During use, under the action of pulley 6 and slide rail 13, the battery body 1 quickly connects with the mounting slot 8 on the body 2. As the battery body 1 descends, the disassembly switch 3 on the battery body 1 gradually connects with the latch 5. At the same time, under the action of spring 11, the disassembly switch 3 can be pushed to engage with the latch 5, thus securing the battery body 1 and the body 2. When it is necessary to remove the battery body 1, the side of the disassembly switch 3 is pressed to overcome the elastic force of spring 11 and push the disassembly switch 3 to rotate. As the disassembly switch 3 rotates around the pin 10, it can gradually disengage from the latch 5, thereby releasing the connection between the battery body 1 and the body 2. The battery body 1 can then be pulled out of the body 2 using the handle 4.

[0041] Although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
