Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mounting bracket technology, and in particular to a mounting bracket for a drone tracking device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of drone technology, more and more application scenarios require drones to be equipped with tracking devices such as locators to prevent them from getting lost. To ensure the stability and accuracy of these tracking devices, the design of the mounting bracket becomes particularly important. The main function of the mounting bracket for drone tracking devices is to fix and install the tracking equipment, ensuring its stable operation during flight.

[0003] However, when using the mounting bracket for the drone tracking device, there are sometimes situations where the locator inside the bracket is damaged and needs to be maintained, making disassembly and assembly inconvenient. This results in more time being spent on disassembly and assembly, which in turn affects the use of the device. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a mounting bracket for a drone tracking device.

[0005] This utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a mounting bracket for a drone tracking device, including a protective bracket, a support frame fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket, a limit groove formed in the inner wall of the protective bracket, a first spring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket, a lifting plate slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket, a locator provided at the upper end of the lifting plate, and limit components provided on both sides of the locator.

[0006] The limiting assembly includes a fixed frame, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame, a limiting arm fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft, a gear fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed frame, a mounting frame fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixed frame, a fixed shaft fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame, a second spring sleeved on the surface of the fixed shaft, a slider slidably connected to the surface of the fixed shaft, a rack fixedly connected to the side end of the slider, a connecting rod rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slider, a sliding frame rotatably connected to the surface of the connecting rod, a connecting frame fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding frame, the limiting arm located at the upper end of the fixed frame, the gear located at the lower end of the fixed frame, the surface of the fixed frame fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket, the side end of the gear meshing with the surface of the rack, and the slider located on both sides of the second spring.

[0007] The above technical solution uses a pull-connecting frame to drive the two side limit arms to rotate synchronously, thereby separating and connecting with the positioner. This design achieves the purpose of conveniently disassembling and assembling the positioner inside the protective bracket, making the disassembly and assembly work of the positioner more convenient when it needs maintenance.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above solution, the surface of the slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket, the upper end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket, the connecting rod is located at the lower end of the slider, and the sliding frame is located at the lower end of the connecting rod.

[0009] The above technical solution provides the necessary conditions for converting the upward pulling force of the sliding frame into the force required for the rotation of the limiting arm, making the subsequent disassembly and assembly of the positioner more convenient and improving the overall practicality of the device.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above solution, the limiting arm is located inside the limiting groove, the lower end of the limiting arm is engaged with the upper end of the locator, and the surface of the sliding frame is slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket.

[0011] The above technical solution uses a first spring and a lifting plate to provide an upward thrust to the positioner and to cooperate with the limiting arm to limit the positioner, thus making the subsequent disassembly work more convenient and the device more easy to use.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the lifting plate is located at the upper end of the support frame, and the upper end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the lower end of the lifting plate.

[0013] The above technical solution utilizes the elastic deformation of a spring to drive the support frame to reset, thereby providing a certain outward pushing force to the positioner and preventing inconvenience when it needs to be removed later, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention utilizes a limiting component. Specifically, pulling the connecting frames upward causes the sliding frames to slide upward, thereby raising the connecting rod. Simultaneously, the connecting rod, limited by the upper slider, presses the sliders on both sides inward, causing the racks on both sides to retract in the direction of the fixed axis. As the racks retract, they drive the gears meshing with them to rotate, pulling the rotating shafts on both sides, along with the limiting arms, to rotate in the opposite direction and retract the limiting arms into the limiting grooves. At this point, the locator can be placed inside the protective bracket and pressed down. Subsequently, the locator releases the limitation on the limiting arms, and the second spring causes the sliders on both sides to slide to the sides again, driving the racks to pull the gears and reset the limiting arms, thus limiting the upper end of the locator. The design of using the connecting frames to drive the synchronous rotation of the limiting arms on both sides achieves convenient disassembly and assembly of the locator inside the protective bracket, making subsequent disassembly and assembly of the locator more convenient when maintenance is required, and improving the overall practicality of the device.

[0016] This invention secures the entire protective bracket to the drone's fuselage using screws or adhesive. After the side limiting arms retract, the locator is placed inside the protective bracket. Then, the upward tension on the connecting frame is released, and the locator is pressed downwards, causing the lifting plate to descend and align with the lower support frame. This installs the locator. To remove the locator, the side limiting arms are first driven back to their original position, and simultaneously, the lifting plate springs upwards under the action of a first spring, thus removing the locator. The design using a first spring and the lifting plate to provide upward thrust for the locator facilitates subsequent disassembly and makes the device more convenient to use.

[0028] Please combine Figure 1-5 The mounting bracket for a drone tracking device in this embodiment includes a protective bracket 1, a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1, a limit groove 3 formed in the inner wall of the protective bracket 1, a first spring 4 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1, a lifting plate 5 slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1, a locator 6 provided at the upper end of the lifting plate 5, and limit components 7 provided on both sides of the locator 6.

[0029] The limiting component 7 includes a fixed frame 701, a rotating shaft 702 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame 701, a limiting arm 703 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 702, a gear 704 fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed frame 701, a mounting frame 705 fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixed frame 701, a fixed shaft 706 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 705, a second spring 707 sleeved on the surface of the fixed shaft 706, a slider 708 slidably connected to the surface of the fixed shaft 706, a rack 709 fixedly connected to the side end of the slider 708, a connecting rod 710 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slider 708, a sliding frame 711 rotatably connected to the surface of the connecting rod 710, and a connecting frame 712 fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding frame 711. The design of using the connecting frame 712 to drive the limiting arms 703 on both sides to rotate synchronously achieves the purpose of conveniently disassembling and assembling the internal locator 6 of the protective bracket 1, making the disassembly and assembly of the locator 6 more convenient when maintenance is required, and improving the overall practicality of the device.

[0030] The limiting arm 703 is located at the upper end of the fixed frame 701, and the gear 704 is located at the lower end of the fixed frame 701. The surface of the fixed frame 701 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1.

[0031] The side end of gear 704 meshes with the surface of rack 709, and slider 708 is located on both sides of second spring 707.

[0032] The surface of the slider 708 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket 705, and the upper end of the rotating shaft 702 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1.

[0033] The connecting rod 710 is located at the lower end of the slider 708, and the sliding frame 711 is located at the lower end of the connecting rod 710.

[0034] The limiting arm 703 is located inside the limiting groove 3. The lower end of the limiting arm 703 is engaged with the upper end of the positioner 6. The surface of the sliding frame 711 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective bracket 1.

[0035] The lifting plate 5 is located at the upper end of the support frame 2. The upper end of the first spring 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the lifting plate 5. The design of using the first spring 4 and the lifting plate 5 to provide upward thrust for the positioner 6 makes subsequent disassembly work more convenient and the device more convenient to use.

[0036] The implementation principle of the mounting bracket for a drone tracking device in this embodiment is as follows: When using the device, the protective bracket 1 is first fixed to the drone body using screws or adhesive. Then, the connecting brackets 712 on both sides are pulled upward to make the sliding bracket 711 slide upward, thereby raising the connecting rod 710. At the same time, the connecting rod 710 is limited by the upper slider 708, which squeezes the sliders 708 on both sides inward, thereby driving the racks 709 on both sides to retract in the direction of the fixed shaft 706. While the racks 709 retract, they drive the gears 704 meshing with them to rotate, thereby pulling the rotating shafts 702 on both sides together with the limiting rotating arm 703 to rotate in the opposite direction and retract the limiting rotating arm 703 into the limiting groove 3. At this time, the locator 6 can be placed inside the protective bracket 1. Then, the upward pulling force on the connecting bracket 712 is released and the locator 6 is squeezed downward to drive the lifting plate 5 to descend and make it engage with the lower support. With the support frame 2 in place, after the locator 6 slides to the lower end of the limiting arm 703, the locator 6 releases its restriction on the limiting arm 703. At the same time, the second spring 707 drives the sliders 708 on both sides to slide to the sides again, thereby driving the rack 709 to pull the gear 704 and reset the limiting arm 703. This, in conjunction with the lower lifting plate 5, fixes the position of the locator 6. When the locator 6 needs to be disassembled for maintenance, simply pull the connecting frame 712 upward again to rotate the limiting arm 703 back. At the same time, the lower first spring 4 drives the lifting plate 5 to pop up, thereby taking the locator 6 out and completing the disassembly of the locator 6. This device uses the design of pulling the connecting frame 712 to drive the limiting arms 703 on both sides to rotate synchronously, achieving the purpose of convenient disassembly and assembly of the locator 6 inside the protective bracket 1. This makes the disassembly and assembly of the locator 6 more convenient when it needs maintenance, improving the overall practicality of the device.

[0037] 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 variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
