[0028] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] like Figure 1-5As shown, a drone external attachment device includes a main unit 1 with a mounting plate 2 fixedly installed at the bottom. The main unit 1 is the bottom of the drone. A mounting plate 3 is inserted into one side of the mounting plate 2. A clamping plate 4 is slidably connected below the mounting plate 3. Limiting rods 6 are slidably connected to both sides of the clamping plate 4. A clamping plate 5 is fixedly connected below the limiting rods 6. An air pump 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main unit 1. An air supply connector 11 is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the air pump 10. An air supply interface 17 is opened on one side of the mounting plate 3. Airbags 13 are fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate 4 and the clamping plate 5. Multiple airbags 13 and one end of the air supply interface 17 are connected through an air supply pipe 12.

[0031] In use, the mounting plate 3 can be fixed by inserting it into the mounting guard plate 2, and then the material can be clamped and fixed between the clamping plates 4 and 5 on both sides. When installing the mounting plate 3, the air supply connector 11 can be inserted into the air supply interface 17 for connection. After starting the air pump 10, the air bags 13 on one side of the clamping plates 4 and 5 can be inflated simultaneously through multiple air supply pipes 12. The inflated air bags 13 can be tightly fixed to the side of the material to prevent the goods from sliding. At the same time, the distance between the clamping plates 4 and 5 can be adjusted by the limiting rod 6, so that materials of different heights can be installed.

[0032] In this embodiment, a pressure plate 15 is slidably connected to one side of the mounting plate 2. A spring 16 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the pressure plate 15 and the bottom of the main unit 1. The pressure plate 15 can prevent the mounting plate 3 from shaking under the compression of the spring 16, making the mounting plate 3 more stable during installation.

[0033] In this embodiment, an electric double-headed screw 14 and a sliding rod 27 are fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 3. The movable ends of the electric double-headed screw 14 are threaded to the upper part of the clamping plate 4, and the sliding rod 27 is slidably connected to the upper part of the clamping plate 4.

[0034] When the electric double-headed screw 14 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the clamping plates 4 on both sides to move inward to clamp the materials. The slide bar 27 can prevent the clamping plates 4 from deflecting when they move.

[0035] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 4 is fixedly connected to the two sides of the mounting groove 7, and the side limiting frame 8 is inserted into the mounting groove 7. The side limiting frame 8 is movably connected to one side of the scissor lift assembly 9. The side limiting frame 8 can be inserted into the mounting groove 7 on both sides, and the scissor lift assembly 9 limits the material from both sides to prevent it from slipping.

[0036] In this embodiment: When in use, the mounting plate 3 can be fixed by inserting it into the mounting guard plate 2, and then the material can be clamped and fixed by placing it between the clamping plates 4 and 5 on both sides. When installing the mounting plate 3, the air supply connector 11 can be inserted into the air supply interface 17 for connection. After starting the air pump 10, the airbags 13 on one side of the clamping plates 4 and 5 can be inflated simultaneously through multiple air supply pipes 12. The inflated airbags 13 can be fixed tightly against the side of the material to prevent the material from sliding. At the same time, the distance between the clamping plates 4 and 5 can be adjusted by the limiting rod 6, so that it can be used to install materials of different heights.

[0037] The pressure plate 15 prevents the mounting plate 3 from shaking under the compression of the spring 16, making the mounting plate 3 more stable during installation. When the electric double-headed screw 14 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the clamping plates 4 on both sides to move inward to clamp the materials. The slide bar 27 can prevent the clamping plates 4 from deflecting when they move. The side limit bracket 8 can be inserted into the mounting slots 7 on both sides and the materials are limited from both sides by the scissor bracket assembly 9 to prevent slippage.

[0038] Example 2:

[0039] An external mounting device for a drone, this embodiment is based on embodiment 1 with the following improvements, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown,

[0040] In this embodiment, a plurality of square support rods 20 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the host 1, and a positioning plug 18 is slidably connected to one end of the square support rod 20. A screw 19 is fixedly connected to the outside of the positioning plug 18.

[0041] The screw 19 is threaded to the outside of a screw nut 21, and multiple screw nuts 21 are connected to each other via a synchronous belt 22.

[0042] When the screw nut 21 rotates, it can drive the screw 19 to move downward, which in turn drives the positioning plug 18 to move downward. The internal square support rod 20 can restrict the positioning plug 18 to prevent it from rotating.

[0043] In this embodiment, a support frame 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the host 1, and multiple screws and nuts 21 are rotatably connected to the support frame 25. A positioning hole 26 is opened on the top of the mounting plate 3. A motor 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the host 1, and a drive gear ring 23 is fixedly connected to the top of one side screw and nut 21. The gear at the power output end of the motor 24 meshes with the drive gear ring 23.

[0044] When the motor 24 is started, the drive gear ring 23 on one side and the timing belt 22 drive the screw nuts 21 on both sides to rotate simultaneously, thereby allowing the positioning plugs 18 on both sides to be inserted into the positioning holes 26 above the mounting plate 3 to position and fix the mounting plate 3, preventing it from shaking and falling off.

[0045] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various variations or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
