[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a fire-fighting drone for emergency response and firefighting, comprising a body 1, with support legs 2 fixed at each of the four corners of the bottom of the body 1, a fire extinguishing agent storage tank 3 installed at the bottom of the body 1, and arms 4 at each of the four corners of the body 1. A drive device 5 is fixed to the top of the arm 4, and a rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the top of the drive device 5. Wings 7 are fixed to both sides of the rotating shaft 6, and connecting seats 8 are slidably connected to both sides of the drive device 5. Two support rods 9 are fixed to one side of each connecting seat 8. The support rods 9 are arranged in a circle, and a protective cover 10 is fixed to the other end of the support rods 9. By installing the protective cover 10 above the wings 7, the direct impact of foreign objects on the structure of the wings 7 can be effectively reduced when the body 1 passes through smoke, flames, or complex terrain, reducing the risk of flight loss of control or crash due to impact. At the same time, the protective cover 10 is made of a strong and durable material, which can enhance the overall structural strength of the wings 7, enabling them to maintain a more stable flight state in harsh environments and extending the service life of the body 1.

[0021] Reference Figure 5 As shown in this embodiment: both sides of the arm 4 are fixed with a lower housing 11, and one side of the connecting seat 8 is fixed with an upper housing 12. The lower housing 11 is internally threaded with a screw 13. One end of the screw 13 is fixed with a knob 14, and the other end of the screw 13 is fixed with a limit block 15. Both sides of the lower housing 11 are slidably connected with a fixing plate 16. The top of the fixing plate 16 is fixed with a locking block 17. Both ends of the upper housing 12 are provided with locking grooves 18 that cooperate with the locking block 17. One side of the fixing plate 16 is fixed with a return spring 19. The other end of the return spring 19 is fixed with the lower housing 11. By turning the knob 14, the screw 13 and the limit block 15 fixed with it are rotated and moved away from the fixing plate 16. At this time, the fixing plate 16 is pushed by the return force of the return spring 19, which drives the locking block 17 to disengage from the inside of the locking groove 18, thereby releasing the fixation of the upper housing 12. At this time, the user can remove the protective cover 10 from the drive device 5. The operation is simple and convenient and does not require special tools.

[0022] Reference Figure 5 As shown in this embodiment: the limiting block 15 is elliptical in shape, and the difference between the maximum and minimum diameters of the limiting block 15 is greater than the diameter of the card block 17 inserted into the card slot 18. Due to the elliptical nature of the limiting block 15, the difference between its maximum and minimum diameters is greater than the diameter of the card block 17 inserted into the card slot 18, which ensures the moving distance of the fixing plate 16 and can completely remove the card block 17 from the inside of the card slot 18, thus avoiding jamming.

[0023] Reference Figure 5As shown in this embodiment: both sides of the lower housing 11 are fixed with fixing rods 20, and the surface of the fixing plate 16 is provided with a sliding groove 21 that cooperates with the fixing rods 20. Through the structure of the fixing rods 20 and the sliding groove 21, the movement trajectory of the fixing plate 16 can be restricted to avoid tilting.

[0024] Reference Figure 5 As shown in this embodiment: a gasket 22 is provided on the surface of the screw 13. The gasket 22 is made of rubber. By setting the gasket 22 and utilizing the properties of its rubber material, the firmness between the knob 14 and the lower housing 11 can be further improved, preventing the knob 14 from becoming loose during the operation of the equipment and affecting the operation of the equipment.

[0025] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in this embodiment: a strip groove 23 is provided on the inner side of the connecting seat 8. The diameter of the strip groove 23 is larger than the longitudinal diameter of the wing 7. By setting the strip groove 23, it is convenient to fix the protective cover 10 to the drive device 5 through the wing 7. It is also suitable for disassembly operation.

[0026] By installing a protective shield 10 above the wing 7, the user can effectively reduce the direct impact of foreign objects on the wing 7 structure when the aircraft 1 passes through smoke, flames, or complex terrain, thus reducing the risk of flight loss of control or crash due to impact. Simultaneously, the protective shield 10, made of robust and durable materials, enhances the overall structural strength of the wing 7, enabling it to maintain a more stable flight state in harsh environments and extending the service life of the aircraft 1. By turning the knob 14, the screw 13 and the limiting block 15 fixed to it rotate and move away from the fixing plate 16. At this time, the fixing plate 16 is pushed by the return force of the return spring 19, causing the locking block 17 to disengage from the slot 18, thereby releasing the fixation to the upper housing 12. The user can then remove the protective shield 10 from the drive unit 5. The operation is simple. It is simple and convenient, requiring no special tools. Due to the elliptical shape of the limiting block 15, the difference between its maximum and minimum diameters is greater than the diameter of the insert block 17 into the slot 18. This ensures the movement distance of the fixing plate 16 and completely removes the insert block 17 from the slot 18, preventing jamming. The structure of the fixing rod 20 and the slide 21 restricts the movement trajectory of the fixing plate 16, preventing tilting. The setting of the gasket 22, and the use of its rubber material, further improves the firmness between the knob 14 and the lower housing 11, preventing the knob 14 from loosening during operation and affecting the operation of the equipment. The setting of the strip groove 23 facilitates the fixing of the protective cover 10 to the drive device 5 via the wing 7, and is also suitable for disassembly operations.
