Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engineering design technology, specifically to a small airborne photoelectric turret with an external electrical interface expansion structure. Background Technology
[0002] As a representative of new productive forces, the low-altitude economy, driven by various low-altitude flight activities, has a very broad development space. With the development of the low-altitude economy, the demand for small airborne optoelectronic turrets for low-altitude carriers is increasing day by day. The advantages of small airborne optoelectronic turrets, such as low cost and small size, also provide a certain technical basis for their widespread application.
[0003] Airborne optoelectronic equipment and low-altitude carriers communicate with each other through external electrical interfaces. However, the communication interfaces of different flight carriers vary. Large turrets, due to their large size, have more space for installing external connectors. This indirectly places strict requirements on the diversity of external electrical interfaces of small optoelectronic turrets. However, due to the small size of small optoelectronic turrets, existing technical solutions are unable to meet their interface diversity requirements, which hinders the widespread application of the equipment.

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0027] like Figures 1-3The illustrated small airborne optoelectronic turret with an external electrical interface expansion structure includes: an azimuth base assembly 1 and an upper cover assembly 2 connected longitudinally in sequence. The azimuth base assembly 1 includes an azimuth base 1-1, a shaft adapter 1-3, and a support column 1-4 connected longitudinally in sequence. The azimuth base 1-1 is mounted on an azimuth shaft system. The upper cover assembly 2 includes an azimuth upper cover 2-1 and a transition plate 2-3. The azimuth upper cover 2-1 is mounted on the azimuth base 1-1, and the transition plate 2-3 is mounted on the azimuth upper cover 2-1. An external electrical connector 2-4 is provided on plate 2-3. Support column 1-4 is connected to adapter plate 2-3. The azimuth base 1-1 is the carrier of the azimuth axis system of the small airborne optoelectronic turret. Its processing cycle is long and the cost is high. In order to reduce the interface expansion cost, the interface expansion should be completed as much as possible while keeping the azimuth base 1-1 unchanged. The axis system adapter 1-3 is located above the azimuth axis system. The axis system adapter 1-3 and the azimuth base 1-1 are connected by bolts. The bolt connection facilitates disassembly during the later assembly and adjustment process.
[0028] The aforementioned small airborne optoelectronic turret with an external electrical interface expansion structure optimizes and expands the installation area of the external electrical interface by setting the adapter plate 2-3 on the azimuth cover 2-1 and using the adapter plate 2-3 to set the external electrical connector 2-4, thereby improving the equipment's versatility. The external electrical connector 2-4, i.e., the external electrical interface expansion structure, can be applied to existing or newly developed optoelectronic turrets. At the same time, it is connected through the azimuth base 1-1 and the shaft system adapter 1-3 to avoid affecting the movement of the azimuth shaft system. Moreover, this small airborne optoelectronic turret has a simple structure, is easy to install, and has a low cost.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the small airborne optoelectronic turret also includes the original external electrical connector plug 1-2, which is set on the side wall of the azimuth base 1-1; a sealing strip is provided at the connection between the original external electrical connector plug 1-2 and the azimuth base 1-1; the original external electrical connector plug 1-2 seals the original external electrical interface of the optoelectronic turret, ensuring both aesthetic appearance and airtightness of the base, thereby improving the equipment's versatility while ensuring sealing and ease of operation.
[0030] like Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the small airborne optoelectronic turret also includes a sealing groove, which is located on the side of the azimuth cover 2-1 near the azimuth base 1-1; the sealing groove can also be located on the side of the adapter plate 2-3 near the azimuth cover 2-1, depending on the actual usage requirements. The small airborne optoelectronic turret also includes a sealing strip, which is set in the sealing groove; the sealing strip can be used for electromagnetic shielding and overall sealing inside the base to ensure the airtightness requirements of the small airborne optoelectronic turret; the azimuth cover 2-1 and the adapter plate 2-3 are connected by screws, which facilitates disassembly during subsequent debugging.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting groove is provided on the adapter plate 2-3, and the support column 1-4 is set in the limiting groove; through the cooperation of the support column 1-4 and the limiting groove, the adapter plate 2-3 is supported and limited in the horizontal direction, ensuring the ease of debugging and installation / disassembly of the whole machine.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the support columns 1-4 are arranged in pairs between the shaft system adapter 1-3 and the adapter plate 2-3; the support columns 1-4 are threadedly connected to the shaft system adapter 1-3; the support columns 1-4 are symmetrically arranged to avoid uneven force distribution, and the adapter plate 2-3 is provided with limiting grooves corresponding to the number of support columns 1-4 to limit the support columns 1-4 in the horizontal direction.
[0033] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, the installation and commissioning steps of the small airborne optoelectronic turret in this embodiment are as follows:
[0034] Step 1: Install the azimuth axis system inside the azimuth base 1-1, remove the original external electrical connection parts of the equipment, install the sealing strip at the connection between the original external electrical connector plug 1-2 and the azimuth base 1-1, and at the same time, lock and fix the original external electrical connector plug 1-2 and the azimuth base 1-1 with screws or nuts.
[0035] Step 2: Install the shaft system adapter 1-3 on the azimuth base 1-1 using bolts, with the shaft system adapter 1-3 positioned above the azimuth shaft system to avoid affecting the movement of the azimuth shaft system. Then, install the support column 1-4 on the shaft system adapter 1-3.
[0036] Step 3: Install the external electrical connector 2-4 on the adapter plate 2-3, and align the limiting groove on the adapter plate 2-3 with the support column 1-4.
[0037] Step four: Place the sealing strip in the sealing groove between the azimuth cover 2-1 and the adapter plate 2-3. Simultaneously, move the azimuth cover 2-1 from top to bottom above the adapter plate 2-3. Connect the azimuth cover 2-1 and the adapter plate 2-3 with screws. Then connect the azimuth base 1-1 to the azimuth cover 2-1 with screws. In order to ensure airtightness, a sealing strip is also provided between the azimuth base 1-1 and the azimuth cover 2-1.
[0038] The disassembly and assembly process is the reverse of the installation steps described above, so it will not be repeated here. If it is necessary to debug the circuit board inside the orientation base 1-1, first remove the connecting screws between the orientation upper cover 2-1 and the orientation base 1-1, then remove the screws between the orientation upper cover 2-1 and the adapter plate 2-3, and move the orientation upper cover 2-1 from bottom to top to remove it. At this time, the circuit board inside the orientation base 1-1 can be debugged. During this process, the external electrical connector 2-4 remains relatively stationary with the orientation base 1-1. The orientation upper cover 2-1 can be moved separately to debug the circuit board. Installing the external electrical connector 2-4 on the orientation base 1-1 will not affect the cable of the external electrical connector 2-4.
[0039] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
