[0036] As shown in FIG. Figures 1-5 A multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle arm rapid positioning clamping mechanism, comprising: a base 100, an arm 200 and a clamping assembly.
[0037] Among them, the base 100 is provided with containing groove, positioning part 120 and first connecting part, the positioning part 120 is located at the bottom of containing groove.
[0038] Specifically, the base 100 is used for connecting with the body of unmanned aerial vehicle.
[0039] Among them, the arm 200 can be inserted into containing groove and contact with positioning part 120.
[0040] The clamping assembly is detachably connected to the base 100. The clamping assembly includes a second connecting part and a clamping part 321. The second connecting part is detachably connected to the first connecting part. The clamping part 321 is used to clamp the arm 200.
[0041] The clamping component is not specifically limited here; it can be a clamp structure, a screw fastening structure, or other structures.
[0042] In this embodiment, when installing the arm 200, the arm 200 is inserted into the receiving groove and inserted to the bottom to contact the positioning part 120 to complete the positioning. This reduces the step of measuring and determining the length with a ruler required in traditional assembly. At the same time, the clamping component is used to clamp the arm, thus completing the quick positioning and clamping of the UAV arm 200.
[0043] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the clamping assembly includes a fastening base 310 and a collet. The second connecting portion is disposed on the fastening base 310, and the clamping portion 321 is disposed on the collet. The collet is connected to the fastening base 310 and can contract or expand relative to the fastening base 310. The receiving groove includes a first linkage portion, and the collet is provided with a second linkage portion. The first linkage portion can contact the second linkage portion. When the first linkage portion contacts the second linkage portion, the fastening base 310 moves closer to the base 100, causing the collet to contract.
[0044] In this embodiment, when the first linkage part contacts the second linkage part, the fastening seat 310 moves close to the base 100 and drives the collet to retract, thereby effectively clamping the arm 200, simplifying the installation steps, and making the linkage of each component of the multi-rotor UAV arm 200 quick positioning clamping mechanism tight and the structure compact.
[0045] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the collet is a spring collet 320, which can automatically expand and contract.
[0046] It is worth noting that the spring collet 320 is a device for securing workpieces or tools. It is a cylindrical or conical metal ring with an internal gap that allows it to deform elastically. The collet can reduce its inner diameter by applying external pressure (such as tightening a nut), thereby gripping the object inserted into it tightly.
[0047] Collets can provide very precise positioning and clamping force, suitable for precision machining needs, and allow for quick and accurate tool or workpiece changes, reducing downtime. They can also provide evenly distributed clamping force to prevent damage to the machine arm.
[0048] In this embodiment, the collet can expand spontaneously, thus remaining open in the absence of external pressure, facilitating the insertion of the machine arm 200; while after applying appropriate pressure, it can firmly clamp the machine arm 200.
[0049] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the first linkage part is a first conical surface 111. When the fastening seat 310 approaches the base 100, the collet retracts by moving along the first conical surface 111 through the second linkage part.
[0050] In this embodiment, when the fastening seat 310 approaches the base 100, the collet moves along the first conical surface 111 through the second linkage part and retracts, thereby converting the original axial movement of the collet into radial contraction and expansion, thereby achieving clamping or releasing of the machine arm 200.
[0051] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the second linkage part is a second conical surface 322. When the fastening seat 310 approaches the base 100, the collet moves along the first linkage part through the second conical surface 322 and retracts.
[0052] In this embodiment, when the fastening seat 310 approaches the base 100, the collet moves along the first linkage part through the second conical surface 322 and contracts, thereby converting the original axial movement of the collet into radial contraction and expansion, thereby achieving clamping or releasing of the machine arm 200.
[0053] In addition, both of the above implementation methods can be applied simultaneously, that is, the first linkage part is the first conical surface 111, the second linkage part is the second conical surface 322, and when the fastening seat 310 approaches the base 100, the collet retracts by moving along the first conical surface 111 through the second conical surface 322.
[0054] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the first connecting part is a first thread 130, the second connecting part is a second thread 311, and the second thread 311 can be threadedly connected to the first thread 130.
[0055] In this embodiment, the second thread 311 can be threadedly connected to the first thread 130, thereby enabling the fastening seat 310 to be threadedly connected to the base 100, realizing that the fastening seat 310 can move relative to the base 100 and the two can be infinitely adjusted and self-locked in real time.
[0056] It is also worth noting that the collet is rotatably connected to the fastening seat 310 to prevent the collet from scraping against the machine arm 200 when clamping it.
[0057] likeFigures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the receiving groove includes a guide hole 112, the positioning part 120 is located at one end of the guide hole 112, and the shape of the guide hole 112 is adapted to the shape of the arm 200.
[0058] In this embodiment, the shape of the guide hole 112 is adapted to the shape of the arm 200, so the arm 200 can move along the guide hole 112 when it is inserted into the base 100, while the guide hole 112 limits and guides the arm 200 in other directions of movement.
[0059] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the positioning part 120 is formed by the side of the guide hole 112 protruding towards the center.
[0060] In this embodiment, the positioning part 120 is formed by the side of the guide hole 112 protruding towards the center. Therefore, the entire base 100 can be integrally formed and features such as the guide hole 112 and the positioning part 120 can be formed, making production and manufacturing convenient and simple.
[0061] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the number of positioning parts 120 is at least two, and each positioning part 120 is distributed around the center of the guide hole 112.
[0062] In this embodiment, the design of multiple positioning parts 120 distributed around the center of the guide hole 112 not only enhances the fixing effect of the arm 200, but also disperses the force, reduces the load on a single positioning point, and extends the service life.
[0063] like Figures 1-5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the base 100 is provided with mounting holes 140.
[0064] Specifically, mounting hole 140 is a threaded hole.
[0065] In this embodiment, the mounting hole 140 of the base 100 is used to connect with the body of the drone, so the base 100 can be connected to the body of the drone by fasteners.
