Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of drone storage devices, and specifically relates to a drone storage device. Background Technology

[0002] Drones are currently commonly used aerial photography equipment and controllable small flying toys. In order to improve battery life and controllability, their shells are usually made of lightweight plastic to increase battery life by reducing weight. They are usually equipped with a control handle and a spare battery. Furthermore, for convenient daily carrying and use, all components need to be placed in a storage device for protection and storage.

[0003] Existing storage devices typically consist of a rigid outer shell with a cushioning foam pad inside. The drone and other components are placed within the recessed areas of this pad, and the outer shell and the foam pad work together to restrain the drone and other parts. However, existing storage devices require the drone to be removed from the device and placed on a flat surface for takeoff and landing. Therefore, these devices only provide storage and do not offer a parking function for the drone, making them functionally limited and impractical for real-world use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a drone storage device to solve the problem of the limited functionality of existing storage devices mentioned above.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drone storage device, comprising...

[0006] The inner middle of the box is fixed with a cushioning sponge pad, and the side wall of the box has a clearance opening;

[0007] The pull-out panel has an L-shaped cross-section. The horizontal edge of the pull-out panel slides against the inner wall of the box, and the vertical edge of the pull-out panel matches the clearance opening. A cushioning sponge pad is installed on the top surface of the horizontal edge.

[0008] The top plate has a rotating opening on its top surface. A movable plate is rotatably installed inside the rotating opening. A drone limiting component is installed on the movable plate. A rotation limiting component is installed on the top plate.

[0009] The lifting assembly is installed in the housing, and the top of the lifting assembly is connected to the top plate.

[0010] The principle and effects of this technical solution:

[0011] 1. By using a drone limiting component and a movable plate installed in the rotating port, the drone can be restrained on the movable plate by the drone limiting component. By rotating the movable plate, the drone can be placed under the top plate for storage, or placed above the top plate for takeoff after removing the drone limiting component. In other words, the top plate and the movable plate are both the top cover of the storage device and the plane for drone takeoff or landing, making the function more comprehensive. When taking it out, it can be quickly removed by rotating, making the operation simple and convenient.

[0012] 2. The height of the top plate relative to the housing is controlled by the lifting assembly to prevent the housing, cushioning foam pads, etc. from interfering with the rotation of the drone when the movable plate rotates. The rotation limit assembly restricts the rotation of the movable plate relative to the top plate, so that the top plate and movable plate can protect the drone when it is stored, and the movable plate can provide stable support during takeoff and landing.

[0013] 3. The pull-out panel and the foam pad on the pull-out panel allow the backup power supply and drone accessories such as the remote control handle to be quickly removed by pulling them out without interfering with the top panel, movable panel, or drone.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: the drone limiting component includes a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate, both of which have a cross-section in the shape of a "7". The first limiting plate and the second limiting plate are rotatably mounted on the movable plate and are relatively distributed. A limiting belt is installed on the first limiting plate and a clamping buckle is installed on the second limiting plate.

[0015] The principle and effect of this technical solution are as follows: The first and second limiting plates, shaped like the letter 7, press and limit the outer side of the drone. A limiting strap abuts the drone, and a clamping buckle tightens the limiting strap. When the drone is placed on the top plate, it is jointly restrained by the first and second limiting plates and the limiting strap, preventing the drone from moving vertically or laterally relative to the top plate. Furthermore, the first and second limiting plates limit the connection point of the drone's wings, ensuring the drone's position relative to the movable plate is fixed. Even after the movable plate rotates the drone below the top plate, the drone will not fall off. Simultaneously, through the aforementioned positioning, the drone also aligns with the receiving groove of the cushioning foam pad in the middle of the housing, thereby reducing the overall height of the housing.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that: the rotation limiting component includes an insert plate, a pressure plate, a spring and a pull ring; the top surface of the top plate has a movable groove, the side wall of the movable plate has a slot; the insert plate is slidably inserted into the top plate; the pressure plate is fitted and fixed to the insert plate, and the pressure plate is slidably engaged in the movable groove; the spring is installed in the movable groove and is located on the side of the pressure plate away from the movable plate; one end of the insert plate can extend into the slot; and the pull ring is installed at the other end of the insert plate.

[0017] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By setting the spring to a compressed state, the spring's rebound force will spontaneously push the pressure plate closer to the movable plate, which in turn drives the insertion plate and its end to spontaneously approach the slot. This allows the insertion plate to stably limit the position of the movable plate after it is inserted into the slot, preventing it from loosening due to vibrations during transport, thus improving the overall reliability of the top plate and the movable plate.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: two rotation limiting components are symmetrically arranged about the rotation port, and the ends of the two insert plates of the two rotation limiting components are provided with guide surfaces, and one guide surface faces upward and the other guide surface faces downward.

[0019] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By setting two sets of rotating components and two guide surfaces facing opposite directions, the movable plate can simultaneously press the two guide surfaces by pressing against each other when rotating, causing the insert plate to retract and make way for the movable plate. Thus, the rotation limiting component has the functions of self-locking limiting and avoidance. The setting of two rotating components makes the position of the movable plate relative to the top plate more stable and reliable, with strong stability.

[0020] The present invention is further configured such that: the lifting assembly includes a slide rod, an adjusting male buckle and an adjusting female buckle, the slide rod is fixed around the bottom surface of the top plate, the slide rod is slidably inserted into the box body, the top surface of the box body has at least one placement opening, the adjusting male buckle is fixed to the placement opening, the adjusting male buckle and the adjusting female buckle are fitted onto the same slide rod, and the adjusting female buckle and the adjusting male buckle are compatible.

[0021] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By setting the sliding rod, the top plate can rise or fall relative to the box body. Furthermore, by setting the adjusting male and female buckles, the sliding of the sliding rod relative to the box body can be limited by the pressing limit of the adjusting female buckle, so that the sliding rod cannot slide relative to the box body, thereby controlling the position of the top plate.

[0022] The present invention is further configured such that: a limit bolt is threaded into the side wall of the box, and a baffle is fixed on the limit bolt, the end of which can abut against the outer wall of the vertical side of the pull-out plate.

[0023] The principle and effect of this technical solution: The baffle is fixed on the limiting bolt, and when the limiting bolt rotates, it can drive the baffle to rotate, thereby controlling the position of the baffle. By making the baffle abut or give way to the outer wall of the pull-out plate, the position of the pull-out plate is limited.

[0024] The present invention is further configured such that: the side wall of the horizontal edge of the pull-out plate has a protrusion, and the inner wall of the box has a recess, with the protrusion and the recess slidingly engaged.

[0025] The principle and effect of this technical solution: By using the sliding fit between the protrusion and the recess, the pull-out plate can be limited by the recess on the protrusion when sliding into and out of the box, so that the pull-out plate can slide horizontally stably.
