[0042] In this embodiment, improvements are made to the rear cargo bed 2 of the pickup truck 1. Compared to ordinary vehicles, the pickup truck 1 is better able to adapt to extreme environments and cross terrain. The enclosed structure of the rear cargo bed 2 ensures safe storage of equipment, reduces the impact of the external environment, and improves the equipment's weather resistance and anti-theft capabilities.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first drone housing 26 and the second drone housing 27 respectively house a first drone and a second drone via drone nests. That is, both the first drone housing 26 and the second drone housing 27 are equipped with drone nests; the drone nest in the first drone housing 26 houses the first drone, and the drone nest in the second drone housing 27 houses the second drone. The drone nests, the first drone, and the second drone can all be conventional structures found in the prior art. For example, the drone nest could be a DJI third-generation nest, the first drone could be a DJI Matrice 4T drone, and the second drone could be a DJI M350 drone, utilizing both drones for inspection operations.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] This embodiment further elaborates on Embodiment 1, such as... Figures 1-4As shown, the mobile energy storage device storage compartment 21 and the diesel generator storage compartment 22 are located at the left and right ends of the front of the rear compartment 2. There are two oxygen cylinder storage compartments 23, which are located at the left and right ends of the rear of the rear compartment 2 respectively. The emergency compartment 24 and the load compartment 25 are located above the two oxygen cylinder storage compartments 23 respectively. The first drone compartment 26 is located in the middle of the rear compartment 2 and runs through the upper and lower structure of the rear compartment 2.

[0046] Among them, the mobile energy storage device storage compartment 21, the diesel generator storage compartment 22, the emergency compartment 24, the load compartment 25, and the second drone compartment 27 are all pull-out storage compartments. The pull-out storage compartments are preferably equipped with heavy-duty sliding rails with damping, and the oxygen cylinder storage compartment 23 has a side-opening structure.

[0047] In this embodiment, the lower level of the rear compartment 2 is divided into compartmentalized storage compartments, such as...

The rear compartment at the top is equipped with an openable and closable top cover 3. The lifting device can be a conventional lifting structure in the prior art, such as an electric scissor-type or screw-type lifting mechanism.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, the top cover 3 is a two-level protective structure, including at least two relatively sliding protective plates 31 and a rainproof cloth 32 located below the protective plates 31; the two protective plates 31 are slidably mounted on the top of the rear compartment 2. When the two protective plates 31 slide close to each other, the rigid protective layer on the top of the rear compartment 2 is closed, and when they slide away from each other, the rigid protective layer on the top of the rear compartment 2 is opened; the rainproof cloth 32 constitutes a flexible protective layer, and a central hole 33 is provided in the middle of the rainproof cloth 32. When the drone nest in the first drone compartment 26 is raised and lowered by the lifting device, it passes under the central hole 33.

[0052] The protective plate 31 is a rigid protective plate, and the rainproof cloth 32 is a flexible rainproof cloth. The protective plate is made of metal or composite material with sufficient strength and rigidity. The rainproof cloth is a flexible rainproof cloth with good waterproof, dustproof, and weather-resistant properties. Both protective plates 31 are equipped with light strips at their bottom ends for nighttime operation lighting.

[0053] In this embodiment, the sliding assembly of the protective plate 31 can be a conventional slider and slide rail structure in the prior art, which can be slid manually or slid through a linear module.

[0054] The roof 3 of the rear compartment 2 adopts a two-level protection system. The first layer is a rigid protective plate 31, and the second layer is a flexible rainproof cloth 32. During operation, the first rigid protective plate 31 automatically unfolds to both sides, and the machine compartment rises through the middle hole 33 of the second flexible rainproof cloth and automatically opens for operation. The bottom of the unfolded rigid protective plate 31 is equipped with a light strip, allowing workers to work under the unfolded protective plate.

[0055] The rear compartment 2 features two levels of protection. The first level is rigid protection, enhancing the compartment's ability to resist dust, rain, and impacts. The second level is flexible protection, primarily improving the compartment's waterproof and dustproof capabilities when the first level is open or during operation. Storage space is optimized with a layered and compartmentalized design, improving equipment protection and ease of access.

[0059] Emergency compartment 24 stores emergency rescue supplies, including first aid kits and vehicle traction devices, while payload compartment 25 stores drone mounting equipment for different operational tasks, including power grid foreign object removal mounting, high-precision mapping mounting, and gas detection mounting.

[0060] In this embodiment, the specific equipment configurations in the emergency compartment 24 and the load compartment 25 are different according to the actual inspection operation requirements. This utility model is first compatible with storing first aid kits, vehicle traction devices, etc. in the emergency compartment 24, providing corresponding emergency tools when vehicles and personnel are involved in accidents; the load compartment 25 stores pulse flame guns, drone mounting clamps, drone mounting cameras, etc. for the power grid foreign object removal drone, and the drone mounting equipment can be replaced to carry out different drone inspection operations.

[0061] The Pickup 1's running gear includes tires and tracks that can be switched between each other. The tire / track mode can be switched according to terrain requirements to improve off-road capability and enhance the vehicle's ability to pass through extreme terrain.

[0062] In this embodiment, the walking mechanism of the pickup truck 1 includes tires and tracks that can be switched between each other. This can be a conventional structure in the prior art that can switch between tires and tracks, such as the structure of switchable tires and tracks in patents with publication numbers CN114248854A and CN219134343U.

[0063] In this embodiment, for the first drone placed in the drone nest of the first drone compartment 26, during use, the two protective plates 31 are opened, and the drone nest of the first drone compartment is pushed upward through the lifting mechanism, that is, pushed out of the drone nest of the first drone compartment through the central hole 33. After that, the drone nest of the first drone compartment is opened, and the first drone takes off and lands to perform inspection operations. For the second drone placed in the drone nest of the second drone compartment 27, during use, the second drone compartment 27 is pulled out from the rear of the vehicle compartment, and then the drone nest of the second drone compartment 27 is opened, and the second drone takes off and lands to perform inspection operations.

[0090] 5. Public safety and security maintenance:

[0091] Security for large-scale events: Drones can be used for aerial patrols and monitoring at large-scale events, gatherings, parades, etc., to monitor the situation on site in real time, detect abnormalities in a timely manner, and assist security personnel in crowd control and order maintenance.

[0092] Emergency scene monitoring: At the scene of an emergency (such as a mass incident, violent incident, terrorist attack, etc.), drones can quickly arrive at the scene to conduct aerial monitoring, record the situation, provide the police with decision-making information, and assist in the handling of the incident.

[0093] Crime scene investigation and evidence collection: At a crime scene, drones can quickly capture panoramic photos and videos, create 3D models, and record on-site evidence to assist the police in conducting on-site investigations and evidence collection.

[0094] Border patrol and control: In border areas, drones can be used for patrols to monitor illegal border crossings, smuggling, and other activities, thus maintaining border security.

[0095] 6. Environmental pollution monitoring and emergency response:
