Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone nest technology, and in particular to a cover opening and closing mechanism for a drone guard nest. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread application of drones in logistics, inspection, and other fields, the performance of drone storage units is crucial as a key facility for their automated management. The storage unit's cover opening and closing mechanism is a core component, responsible for opening during drone takeoff and landing and closing when the drone is parked to provide protection. Currently, the mainstream opening and closing methods are the flip-type and the sliding type.

[0003] The flip-type mechanism opens by rotating around an axis. Its advantages are a relatively simple structure and a clear movement trajectory. However, its main disadvantage is that after opening, the hatch is either flat upwards or sideways, which cannot provide a flat surface for placing items. This makes it impossible to temporarily place tools, spare batteries, or documents on the open hatch while the drone is parked, thus limiting the auxiliary functions and practicality of the drone's storage compartment.

[0004] To address the issue of flip-type mechanisms being unable to place items, a translation mechanism was adopted. This mechanism uses guide rails to allow the lid to move horizontally and open. Once unfolded, the lid sits above the machine compartment, providing a flat surface for placing items. However, the translation mechanism has inherent drawbacks: its unfolded structure resembles a cantilever beam, lacking effective support on the outside. When items are placed on the lid, especially heavy or unevenly distributed items, the lid will be subjected to significant bending stress. This stress can easily cause irreversible bending or twisting deformation of the lid structure, affecting its normal opening and closing function.

[0005] Based on this, in order to optimize the applicability of existing hatch cover opening and closing mechanisms, we propose a hatch cover opening and closing mechanism for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) guard nests. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing cover opening and closing mechanisms in the prior art, such as the inability to form an effective support platform, and to propose a cover opening and closing mechanism for a drone-guarded drone nest.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] Design a hatch opening and closing mechanism for a drone-guarded drone nest, including:

[0009] The housing and two compartment covers that are slidably connected to the top of the housing;

[0010] The compartment cover is moved horizontally above the opening of the box body by a drive assembly. At least one support member is pinned to each side of the box body. An extension member is pinned to the end of the compartment cover. The extension member is inserted into the inside of the support member. A locking assembly is also provided between the support member and the extension member.

[0011] Furthermore, the support member has a tubular structure;

[0012] The support member has a guide groove on its outer periphery, and a guide member is installed on the outer side of the extension member, the guide member sliding in the guide groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the support member has a deformation groove extending through to its top on its outer periphery, and an annular groove on the outer side of the support member, in which the locking assembly is installed.

[0014] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a sleeve fitted on the outside of the support member, with connecting arms at both ends of the opening of the sleeve, and a screw threaded between the two connecting arms.

[0015] The screw has a nut threaded to one end and a cam handle pinned to the other end.

[0016] Furthermore, two mounting grooves are formed on the end face of one of the connecting arms, and an L-shaped contact is slidably connected inside the mounting groove by a spring, with one end of the L-shaped contact extending through to the outside of the connecting arm;

[0017] A fixed contact piece is also fixedly installed inside the mounting groove. When the two connecting arms are squeezed, the two L-shaped contacts move backward and separate from the fixed contact piece.

[0018] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a rack fixed to the bottom of the compartment cover, a motor fixedly installed at the top opening of the housing, a gear meshing with the rack fixedly installed on the shaft end of the motor, and the motor electrically connected to the L-shaped contact and the fixed contact plate.

[0019] Furthermore, the extension member is a rod;

[0020] An adjusting screw is threaded to the upper end of the extension, and a connecting lug is rotatably connected to the top of the adjusting screw. The connecting lug is rotatably connected to the side lug seat of the compartment cover.

[0021] The present invention proposes a cover opening and closing mechanism for a drone storage nest, which has the following advantages: In this invention, two support members and an extension member are used on both sides of the housing to improve the stability of the support. With the support members and extension members, the extension members can automatically retract when the cover slides outward. If it is necessary to use the cover as a storage platform after it is opened, the support members and extension members can be locked by the locking component. This solves the problem that the existing cover has no support after sliding open, which easily leads to side deformation of the cover when placing items. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-6 As one embodiment of this utility model, it discloses a hatch cover opening and closing mechanism for a drone guarding nest. Specifically, the opening and closing mechanism includes a housing 1 and two hatch covers 2 slidably connected above the housing 1. Of course, in this embodiment, the hatch covers 2 can also be slidably connected above the housing 1 via guide rails and slider structures.

[0031] The compartment cover 2 is moved horizontally above the opening of the box body 1 by the drive assembly 3. At least one support member 4 is pinned to each side of the box body 1. An extension member 5 is pinned to the end of the compartment cover 2. The extension member 5 is inserted into the inside of the support member 4. A locking assembly 6 is also provided between the support member 4 and the extension member 5.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, two support members 4 and extension members 5 are used on both sides of the box 1 to improve the stability of the support. With the support members 4 and extension members 5, the extension members 5 can automatically retract when the lid 2 slides outward. If the lid 2 needs to be used as a storage platform after it is opened, the support members 4 and extension members 5 can be locked by the locking component 6 to solve the problem that the existing lid 2 has no support after sliding out, which easily leads to the side deformation of the lid 2 when placing items.

[0033] In some embodiments, the support member 4 in this invention has a tubular structure;

[0034] The support member 4 has a guide groove 41 on its outer periphery. The extension member 5 is equipped with a guide member 51 on its outer side. The guide member 51 slides in the guide groove 41. Preferably, in this embodiment, the guide member 51 is a bolt. The bolt and the extension member 5 are threaded together. The linear movement stability of the extension member 5 is improved by the sliding cooperation between the guide member 51 and the guide groove 41.

[0035] Based on the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the support member 4 has a deformation groove 42 extending through to its top on its outer periphery, and an annular groove 43 is also provided on the outer side of the support member 4. The locking component 6 is installed in the annular groove 43. By placing the locking component 6 in the annular groove 43, the problem of the locking component 6 moving up and down can be avoided.

[0036] Optionally, the locking assembly 6 includes a sleeve 61 sleeved on the outside of the support member 4. The sleeve 61 is generally C-shaped. Both ends of the opening of the sleeve 61 are provided with connecting arms 62. A screw 63 passes through the two connecting arms 62. It should be noted that in this embodiment, a through hole is opened on the end face of the connecting arm 62, and the screw 63 is placed in the through hole. Of course, the diameter of the through hole should be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the screw 63 to ensure the deformation requirements of the connecting arm 62 after being clamped.

[0037] The screw 63 has a nut 64 threaded to one end and a cam handle 65 pinned to the other end.

[0038] When the cover 2 is slid open, if it is necessary to lock the support member 4 and the extension member 5 to ensure support for the end of the cover 2, the cam handle 65 can be rotated. The cam handle 65 tightens the screw 63 to drive the clamp 61 to clamp and deform the support member 4. Since the support member 4 has a deformation groove 42, the mutual locking between the support member 4 and the extension member 5 can be achieved.

[0039] Considering that in actual use, when the support 4 and extension 5 are locked, the drive assembly 3 cannot achieve sliding control of the cover 2, in order to achieve start control of the motor 32, in this embodiment, two mounting grooves 66 are opened on the end face of one of the connecting arms 62. An L-shaped contact 68 is slidably connected inside the mounting groove 66 by a spring 67, and one end of the L-shaped contact 68 extends through to the outside of the connecting arm 62.

[0040] A fixed contact piece 69 is also fixedly installed inside the mounting groove 66. When the two connecting arms 62 are squeezed, the two L-shaped contacts 68 move backward and separate from the fixed contact piece 69.

[0041] Specifically, when the two connecting arms 62 are not clamped or squeezed, the L-shaped contact 68 is in contact with the fixed contact 69, and the circuit is connected. When the support 4 and the extension 5 are locked, the two connecting arms 62 are driven to move relative to each other. At this time, the L-shaped contact 68 contacts the end face of the fixed contact 69. The L-shaped contact 68 begins to retract under the resistance force. At this time, the L-shaped contact 68 and the fixed contact 69 separate, and the circuit is broken.

[0042] Based on the above embodiments, the drive assembly 3 in this embodiment includes a rack 31 fixed to the bottom of the cover 2, a motor 32 fixedly installed at the top opening of the housing 1, a gear 33 that meshes with the rack 31 fixedly installed on the shaft end of the motor 32, and the motor 32 is electrically connected to the L-shaped contact 68 and the fixed contact piece 69.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the positive line of motor 32 can be cut off in the middle, and the two cut-off ports are connected to L-shaped contact 68 and fixed contact 69 respectively. As mentioned above, in the initial state, since L-shaped contact 68 and fixed contact 69 are electrically conductive, the movement of the entire motor 32 can be controlled by inputting power. When support member 4 and extension member 5 are locked, since L-shaped contact 68 and fixed contact 69 are separated and non-conductive, even if power is input at this time, motor 32 cannot work. In this way, the starting protection of motor 32 can be achieved when support member 4 and extension member 5 are locked.

[0044] It should be noted that the extension member 5 described in this embodiment is a rod;

[0045] An adjusting screw 52 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the extension 5. The top end of the adjusting screw 52 is rotatably connected to a connecting lug 53. The connecting lug 53 is pin-connected to the side lug seat of the compartment cover 2. Of course, the bottom of the support 4 is also pin-connected to the side lug seat of the box 1 via a connecting lug 53. That is, in this embodiment, the adjusting screw 52 is used to adjust the initial effective length of the entire extension 5 to ensure the stability of the support for the compartment cover 2 after it is unfolded.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
