Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) cruise technology, specifically a multi-UAV cruise device in a single box. Background Technology
[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and their own program control devices.
[0003] Publication number CN216546702U discloses a drone patrol device for port safety monitoring. This patent, through the arrangement of a camera, push rod motor, cleaning ring, cleaning cloth, hot air blower, air outlet pipe, circular pipe, air outlet nozzle, transparent glass column, and air inlet, monitors the drone via camera during flight. The hot air blower, activated by the air outlet nozzle, dries the transparent glass column, keeping its outer surface dry. Simultaneously, the push rod motor moves the cleaning ring up and down, allowing the cleaning cloth to remove dust adhering to the outer surface of the transparent glass column. This prevents water droplets and dust from affecting the clarity of the camera monitoring, further improving the effectiveness of camera monitoring. However, this patent still has the following problems in practical use:
[0004] A cleaning cloth can remove dust adhering to the outside of the transparent glass column, thus preventing water droplets and dust from affecting the clarity of the camera and further improving the monitoring effect. However, in actual use, the cleaning cloth can only move up and down and cannot clean the bottom of the glass column. There will be some blind spots in the cleaning. If the glass column is not thoroughly cleaned, it will still affect the clarity of the camera and the quality of image transmission.
[0005] A multi-drone cruise device is proposed to address the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-drone patrol device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art. Currently, a cleaning cloth can be used to clean the dust adsorbed on the outside of a transparent glass column, thereby preventing water droplets and dust on the outside of the transparent glass column from affecting the clarity of the camera monitoring and further improving the effect of camera monitoring. However, in actual use, the cleaning cloth can only move up and down and cannot clean the bottom of the glass column. The cleaning will leave some dead corners and will not thoroughly clean the glass column, which will still affect the clarity of the camera and the quality of image transmission.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-drone cruise device in a single box, including a storage box;
[0008] The storage box contains several drone bodies, and a tripod is provided on one side of the storage box.

Several mounting rods are fixedly mounted on the outside of the base, and an image transmission module is fixedly mounted on the end of the mounting rod away from the base. Camera components are also provided on the bottom of several drone bodies.
[0011] The camera assembly includes a camera fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body, and an annular groove is provided on the bottom of the drone body outside the camera, and a transparent protective cover is provided inside the annular groove. Fixing plates are symmetrically installed on both sides of the transparent protective cover on the bottom of the drone body.
[0012] Among them, a rotating rod is fixedly installed on the inner side of each of the two fixed plates, and a cleaning rod is fixedly installed on the outer side of the two rotating rods. A rubber strip is fixedly installed inside the cleaning rod, and a semi-circular ring is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drone body above the rubber strip.
[0013] Preferably, a fixed frame is fixedly installed on one side of a fixed plate at the bottom of the drone body, and an electric push rod is fixedly installed inside the fixed frame. A movable frame is fixedly installed on the movable end of the electric push rod. One end of a rotating rod passes through the fixed plate and is fixedly installed with a rotating gear. A toothed plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable frame, and the toothed plate is meshed with the rotating gear.
[0014] Preferably, a movable sleeve is fixedly installed on the top of the movable frame, and a support rod is slidably connected inside the movable sleeve. Both ends of the support rod are fixedly installed with fixing blocks, and the two fixing blocks are fixedly connected to a fixing plate on one side.
[0015] Preferably, two sets of positioning blocks are symmetrically installed on the bottom of the drone body inside the two fixed plates, and positioning rods are slidably connected inside the two sets of positioning blocks. Two sets of positioning grooves are symmetrically opened on the upper outer side of the transparent protective cover, and the positioning rods are engaged with the positioning grooves.
[0016] Preferably, a telescopic spring is fitted on the outer side of each of the two sets of positioning rods, and one end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the positioning block, and a movable block is fixedly installed on the other end of the telescopic spring, and the movable block is fixedly connected to the positioning rod.
[0017] Preferably, a column block is fixedly installed at the bottom of both sets of movable blocks, and a rotating ring is provided below the two sets of movable blocks. Two sets of movable grooves are symmetrically opened through the top of the rotating ring, and the column block is slidably connected to the movable groove.
[0018] Preferably, two sets of limiting rods are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the rotating ring, and a spherical block is fixedly installed at the top of each set of limiting rods. A limiting ring groove is opened on the bottom of the UAV body outside the two sets of positioning blocks, and the two sets of spherical blocks are slidably connected to the limiting ring groove.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this multi-drone cruise device in a single box can protect the camera and facilitates thorough cleaning of the transparent protective cover, improving the cleaning effect, avoiding affecting the clarity of the camera, avoiding affecting the quality of image transmission, and improving practicality. The specific details are as follows:
[0020] 1. Multiple drones can be stored in a storage box, allowing for simultaneous operation of multiple drones according to mission requirements. This coordinates task allocation and flight paths between different drones, enabling collaborative monitoring, data sharing, and mission coordination. During flight, the drones capture images via cameras, which are then transmitted through data and image transmission modules. The transparent protective cover can be made of glass. Cleaning the cover involves activating an electric push rod to move a movable frame. This movement causes a sliding sleeve to slide on a support rod, which in turn rotates a cleaning rod through the meshing of a toothed plate and a rotating gear. After the cleaning rod rotates, it can drive the rubber strip to rotate. One side of the rubber strip fits into the transparent protective cover, allowing the transparent protective cover to be cleaned through the rubber strip. After cleaning, the rubber strip can be reset so that the semi-circular ring contacts the rubber strip, allowing the rubber strip to continue to rotate upwards. When the rubber strip is reset and rotating, the dirt or water droplets that have been cleaned will adhere to the top of the rubber strip. As the rubber strip continues to move upwards, the semi-circular ring can scrape and clean the top of the rubber strip. Through the camera component, the camera can be protected, and the transparent protective cover can be thoroughly cleaned, which can improve the cleaning effect, avoid affecting the clarity of the camera, avoid affecting the quality of image transmission, and improve practicality.
[0021] 2. If the transparent protective cover is broken or scratched due to impact, in order not to affect the clarity and protective performance of the camera, the rotating ring can be rotated. This will cause the limiting rod to slide the spherical block in the limiting ring groove. After the rotating ring rotates, it can drive the movable block to move through the sliding connection between the movable groove and the column block. This will cause the positioning rod to slide on the positioning block and stretch the telescopic spring, causing the positioning rod to disengage from the positioning groove. As a result, the transparent protective cover will lose its limiting position and can be removed. Then, a new transparent protective cover can be inserted into the annular groove, aligning the positioning rod with the positioning groove. The rotating ring can be released, and the telescopic spring will cause the positioning rod to engage with the positioning groove, thus positioning the transparent protective cover. This makes it easier for staff to replace the transparent protective cover and improves its practicality. Attached Figure Description

A toothed plate 212 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable bracket 211, and the toothed plate 212 meshes with the rotating gear 208. The movement of the movable bracket 211 can drive the cleaning rod 205 to rotate. A movable sleeve 213 is fixedly installed at the top, and a support rod 214 is slidably connected inside the movable sleeve 213. Both ends of the support rod 214 are fixedly installed with fixing blocks 215, and the two fixing blocks 215 are fixedly connected to a fixing plate 203 on one side, limiting the movement of the movable frame 211. Two sets of positioning blocks 216 are symmetrically installed on the bottom of the drone body 101, inside the two fixing plates 203. Positioning rods 217 are slidably connected inside the two sets of positioning blocks 216. Two sets of positioning grooves 218 are symmetrically opened on the upper outer side of the transparent protective cover 202. Rod 217 engages with positioning groove 218 to position the transparent protective cover 202. A telescopic spring 219 is fitted on the outer side of each of the two sets of positioning rods 217.

A column block 221 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of each set of movable blocks 220, and a rotating ring 222 is provided below each set of movable blocks 220. Two sets of movable grooves 2221 are symmetrically opened through the top of the rotating ring 222, and the column block 221 is slidably connected to the movable groove 2221, so that the rotation of the rotating ring 222 can drive the positioning rod 217 to move. Two sets of limiting rods 223 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the rotating ring 222, and the top of each of the two sets of limiting rods 223 is fixedly installed with a spherical block 224. The bottom of the UAV body 101 is provided with a limiting ring groove 225 on the outer side of the two sets of positioning blocks 216, and the two sets of spherical blocks 224 are slidably connected to the limiting ring groove 225 to support and limit the rotation of the rotating ring 222.
[0031] Working principle: Before using this multi-drone patrol device, it is necessary to check the overall condition of the device to ensure it can function normally. Figure 1 - Figure 5As shown, multiple drone bodies 101 are stored in the storage box 1. This allows for simultaneous operation of multiple drone bodies 101 according to task requirements, coordinating task allocation and flight paths between different drone bodies 101, and achieving collaborative monitoring, data sharing, and task coordination. During cruise, the drone body 101 captures images via camera 201, which are then transmitted to the image transmission module 105 via a data transmission module. The transparent protective cover 202 can be made of glass. When cleaning the transparent protective cover 202, the electric push rod 210 can be activated to move the movable frame 211. The movable frame 211 then causes the movable sleeve 213 to slide on the support rod 214. This, in turn, allows the rotating rod 204 to rotate through the meshing of the toothed plate 212 and the rotating gear 208, thus allowing the cleaning rod 205 to rotate. After the cleaning rod 205 rotates, it can drive the rubber strip 206 to rotate. One side of the rubber strip 206 is in contact with the transparent protective cover 202, so the transparent protective cover 202 can be cleaned through the rubber strip 206. After cleaning, the rubber strip 206 can be reset so that the semi-circular ring 207 contacts the rubber strip 206, allowing the rubber strip 206 to continue to rotate upward. When the rubber strip 206 is reset and rotated, the dirt or water droplets cleaned off will adhere to the top of the rubber strip 206. As the rubber strip 206 continues to move upward, the semi-circular ring 207 can scrape and clean the top of the rubber strip 206. The camera component 2 can protect the camera 201 and facilitate thorough cleaning of the transparent protective cover 202, which can improve the cleaning effect, avoid affecting the clarity of the camera 201, avoid affecting the quality of image transmission, and improve practicality.
[0032] If the transparent protective cover 202 is broken or scratched due to impact, in order not to affect the clarity and protective performance of the camera 201, the rotating ring 222 can be rotated, causing the limiting rod 223 to drive the spherical block 224 to slide in the limiting ring groove 225. After the rotating ring 222 rotates, it can drive the movable block 220 to move through the sliding connection between the movable groove 2221 and the column block 221, so that the positioning rod 217 slides on the positioning block 216 and stretches the telescopic spring 219, so that the positioning rod 217 disengages from the positioning groove 218, thereby causing the transparent protective cover 202 to lose its limit and can be removed. Then, a new transparent protective cover 202 can be inserted into the annular groove, so that the positioning rod 217 is aligned with the positioning groove 218. The rotating ring 222 is released, and under the action of the telescopic spring 219, the positioning rod 217 engages with the positioning groove 218, thereby positioning the transparent protective cover 202, which facilitates the replacement of the transparent protective cover 202 by the staff and improves its practicality.
[0033] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
