[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this utility model should have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains. The terms "first," "second," and similar words used in this utility model do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components.

Terms such as "connected" or "linked" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. Terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are used only to indicate relative positional relationships; when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] This application discloses a connection and fixing device for a remote sensing drone sensor. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 It includes a fuselage 1, with wings connected to the outside of the fuselage 1. Landing gears are connected to both sides of the lower end of the fuselage 1. Protective sleeves are installed on the outside of the landing gears to reduce the friction between the landing gears and the ground, extend their service life, and ensure that the fuselage 1 is more stable during descent.

[0026] The lower end of the housing 1 is provided with a fixing groove 2, and the fixing seat 51 is installed inside it. The top of the fixing groove 2 is provided with a threaded groove 3, and both sides of the fixing groove 2 are provided with snap-fit ​​grooves 4. The snap-fit ​​grooves 4 are designed with an arc structure. A connecting component 5 is snapped into the fixing groove 2. The lower end of the connecting component 5 is connected to a support frame 6. The inner side of the support frame 6 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 7. One end of the rotating shaft 7 is connected to the sensor body 8. One end of the support frame 6 is provided with a limit hole 9.

[0027] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting component 5 includes a fixing seat 51 installed inside the fixing groove 2. The lower end of the fixing seat 51 is connected to a support plate 52. The lower end of the support plate 52 is connected to one side of the upper end of the support frame 6. Both sides of the outside of the fixing seat 51 are connected to snap-fit ​​blocks 53. The snap-fit ​​blocks 53 move to the inside of the snap-fit ​​groove 4, and the fixing seat 51 and the fixing groove 2 are initially fixed. The snap-fit ​​blocks 53 are located inside the snap-fit ​​groove 4. One end of the snap-fit ​​blocks 53 is provided with an insertion hole 55. A movable plate 56 is slidably connected to one side of the inside of the fixing seat 51.

[0028] A moving rod 513 is connected through one side of the upper end of the moving plate 56. The moving rod 513 slides and limits the moving plate 56. When the rotating rod 510 pushes the moving rod 513 to move, the rotating rod 510 moves outside the limiting rod 11. Under the limitation of the limiting rod 11, the moving plate 56 is guaranteed to push the gear disk 57 and the gear disk 57 to move upward in a straight line. Both ends of the moving rod 513 are connected to the inner walls of the fixed seat 51. The upper end of the moving plate 56 is rotatably connected to the gear disk 57. The gear disk 57 is meshed with a gear 58 on the outside. The rotation of the gear disk 57 drives the gear 58 to rotate.

[0029] The lower end of gear 58 is rotatably connected to the movable plate 56, and the upper end of gear 58 is connected to a threaded rod 59. The threaded rod 59 rotates into the threaded groove 3 under the drive of gear 58, thereby making the connection between the fixed seat 51 and the housing 1 safer. The lower end of threaded rod 59 is rotatably connected to the upper end of movable plate 56, and the upper end of threaded rod 59 extends into the threaded groove 3. The lower end of gear disc 57 is connected to a rotating rod 510, and the lower end of rotating rod 510 extends into the outside of fixed seat 51.

[0030] Additionally, refer to Figure 4 As shown, a mounting plate 511 is rotatably sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 510. The mounting plate 511 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 510. When the rotating rod 510 moves upward, it will drive the mounting plate 511 to move. When the rotating rod 510 rotates, it will not drive the mounting plate 511 to rotate. Both sides of the upper end of the mounting plate 511 are connected to plug rods 512. The plug rods 512 move with the rotating rod 510 as it moves upward, and then are inserted into the plug hole 55 to fix the fixing seat 51 for a second time. The plug rods 512 are inserted into the plug hole 55.

[0031] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 A sliding plate 10 is slidably connected inside the rotating shaft 7. One end of the sliding plate 10 extends through to the outside of the rotating shaft 7 and is connected to a limit rod 11. When the limit rod 11 is inside the limit hole 9, the sensor body 8 is in a fixed state. When it is necessary to change the angle of the sensor, the sliding plate 10 is pulled to one side. The sliding plate 10 drives the spring 12 to move, so that the spring 12 is in a pulling rope state. At this time, the limit rod 11 moves out from inside the limit hole 9, and the sensor body 8 is no longer fixed. The sensor body 8 is rotated according to the usage requirements. One end of the sliding plate 10 is connected to the spring 12, and one end of the spring 12 is connected to one side inside the rotating shaft 7.

[0032] The implementation principle of the connection and fixing device for a remote sensing drone sensor in this application embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the sensor body 8 during use, the slide plate 10 is pulled to one side, and the slide plate 10 drives the spring 12 to move, so that the spring 12 is in a pulling rope state. At this time, the limiting rod 11 moves out from the limiting hole 9, and the sensor body 8 is no longer fixed. The sensor body 8 is rotated according to the usage requirements, thereby changing the angle of the sensor body 8 and improving the usage efficiency.

[0033] When the sensor body 8 needs to be removed for maintenance or replacement, rotate the rotating rod 510. The rotating rod 510 drives the gear plate 57 to rotate. Under the meshing transmission of the gear plate 57 and the gear 58, the gear 58 drives the threaded rod 59 to rotate. The threaded rod 59 moves from inside the threaded groove 3 to inside the fixed seat 51. Pull the rotating rod 510 down to move the insertion rod 512 from inside the insertion hole 55 to the outside. Then rotate the fixed seat 51 to move the locking block 53 out of the locking groove 4, which makes it easier to remove. When installing the sensor, move the mounting base 51 into the mounting groove 2, rotate the mounting base 51 to move the snap-fit ​​block 53 to one side of the snap-fit ​​groove 4, push the rotating rod 510 upward to move the threaded rod 59 to one end of the threaded groove 3, rotate the rotating rod 510, and under the meshing of the gear plate 57 and the gear 58, move the threaded rod 59 into the threaded groove 3, and insert the insertion rod 512 into the insertion hole 55. Under the multiple snap-fit ​​fixation, the connection between the mounting base 51 and the housing 1 is more secure and stable.

[0034] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
