Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of cable conduit fixing devices for small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) nest platforms, and in particular to the fixing structure and cable protection frame for cable conduits for small UAV nest platforms. Background Technology
[0002] Small drones (typically referring to drones weighing less than 25kg) have become an important carrier of the low-altitude economy due to their flexibility, low cost, and ease of operation. The characteristics of small drones dictate that a safe and reliable nesting platform is needed during use. This platform must ensure a certain altitude to prevent vandalism, facilitate subsequent maintenance, and guarantee safety. The introduction of a drone nesting platform necessitates ensuring reliable connections for both high-voltage and low-voltage electrical systems.
[0003] According to regulations, signal cables and power cables must be introduced separately. However, traditional drone nests are placed on a platform at a certain height, and the two cable conduits and the upright are usually fixed with cable ties. During use, the ends of the cable ties are prone to swinging and are difficult to hold securely. Moreover, the cable ties are not secure, which can easily cause the cable conduits and the upright to shake and shift. This is both non-compliant with regulations and unsafe.
[0004] There is currently no effective solution to the problem of poor fixing effect of traditional conduit fixing equipment when fixing conduits. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This utility model provides a fixing structure and wire protection frame for the conduit of a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) nest platform, in order to solve the problem of poor fixing effect of traditional conduit fixing equipment when fixing conduits.
[0006] This utility model provides a fixing structure for the cable conduit of a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) nesting platform, including at least two sets of cooperating fixing components. Each set of fixing components includes two fixing clips, several nuts and bolts, a fixing seat, and a second clamp. Each fixing clip has threads at both ends and is bent into an arc shape in the middle. The fixing seat includes a first clamp, a connecting rod, and an angled plate. The first clamp has round holes at both ends and is bent into an arc shape in the middle. The two ends of the connecting rod are fixed to the first clamp and the angled plate, respectively. The angled plate has four round holes in the middle, and the two fixing clips can be fixed to the four round holes with nuts and used to fix two cable conduits. The second clamp has the same structure as the first clamp and can be fixed to the first clamp with nuts and bolts, used to fix the fixing seat to the platform column.
[0007] Furthermore, the first clamp is made of metal, the connecting rod is made of metal, and the angle plate is made of metal angle steel. The first clamp, the connecting rod, and the angle plate are connected by welding.
[0008] Furthermore, the fixing clip is a metal fastener with threads at both ends and a curved shape in the middle.
[0009] Furthermore, the second clamp is made of metal, with round holes at both ends and a curved shape in the middle.
[0010] Furthermore, both fixing clips are U-shaped.
[0011] Furthermore, the fixing clip is a hollow U-shaped tube.
[0012] Furthermore, the fixing clips, nuts, bolts, first clamp, connecting rod, angle plate and second clamp are all coated with a corrosion-resistant coating.
[0013] Furthermore, the corrosion-resistant coating is a silicon carbide coating.
[0014] Furthermore, both the first and second clamps have a semi-circular arc shape.
[0015] This utility model also provides a cable protection frame, including a platform column, a fixing structure, and a cable conduit. The fixing structure is the same as the aforementioned fixing structure for the cable conduit of the small UAV nest platform; the cable conduit is mounted on the platform column through the fixing structure of the cable conduit of the small UAV nest platform.
[0016] Compared with related technologies, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. Through the special mechanical structure between the fixing clips, nuts, bolts, fixing bases, and the second clamp, when the second clamp and the first clamp are fitted onto the outer wall of the platform column and fixed, two conduits can be securely fixed to one side of the platform column simultaneously by the two fixing clips. Compared with traditional cable tie fixing, this embodiment uses bolt tightening for fixing, which provides a better and more reliable fixing effect for the two conduits. Furthermore, since the fixing clips have a pre-set space for the conduits to enter, the installation operation of the conduits becomes simpler. The position and angle of the second clamp and the first clamp on the platform column can also be adjusted arbitrarily, improving the flexibility of the device and solving the problem of poor fixing effect when fixing conduits using traditional conduit fixing equipment.
[0018] 2. The fixing clips, nuts, bolts, fixing bases and second clamps of this device can be quickly disassembled with a wrench and can be recycled after use in the previous facility, thus allowing for reuse, reducing operating costs and saving resources.

[0033] The drone's pod is placed on a platform at a certain height and supported by platform columns 7. According to regulations, signal and power cables must be introduced separately. The two conduits and columns are typically secured with cable ties, which is neither compliant with regulations nor safe. This embodiment employs a self-developed mechanical structure, using four fixing clips 1 to secure the two conduits 6. The spacing between the two conduits 6 is precisely controlled through machining, ensuring both compliance with regulations and the stability of the conduit 6's fixation.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 This embodiment provides a fixing structure for the conduit of a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) nest platform, including at least two sets of fixing components used in cooperation. Each set of fixing components includes two fixing clips 1, several nuts 4 and bolts 5, a fixing seat 2 and a second clamp 3.
[0035] Among them, you can refer to Figure 2 and combined Figure 9Each fixing clip 1 has threads at both ends and is bent into an arc shape in the middle. The degree of bending into the arc shape can vary, for example, bending from 120 degrees to 180 degrees. According to actual tests, bending to 180 degrees works best, meaning both fixing clips 1 are U-shaped. The fixing clip 1 can be made of non-metallic materials, such as plastic, through injection molding; the fixing clip 1 can also be a metal fixing component with threads at both ends and a curved shape in the middle, i.e., made of metal materials, such as threaded round steel with a bent middle. For other embodiments, please refer to... Figure 10 The fixing clip 1 can also be a hollow U-shaped tube. The U-shaped tube can be made of plastic or metal. The main purpose of using the U-shaped tube is to reduce manufacturing costs. In light-duty application scenarios, such as fixing small drone nests with pipes, it can effectively reduce production costs while ensuring stability.
[0036] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Several nuts 4 and bolts 5 can be standard parts, or their dimensions can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[0037] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing seat 2 was designed and developed by the applicant. It can be seen that the fixing seat 2 includes a first clamp 21, a connecting rod 22, and an angled plate 23, and can be welded together from the first clamp 21, the connecting rod 22, and the angled plate 23; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The images show the front view, top view, and left view of the second clamp 3. The first clamp 21 has round holes at both ends and is curved into an arc shape in the middle. The second clamp 3 has the same structure as the first clamp 21 and can be fixed to the first clamp 21 by nuts 4 and bolts 5, and is used to fix the fixing seat 2 to the platform column 7. The first clamp 21 and the second clamp 3 can be made of non-metallic materials such as plastic. Alternatively, the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 3 can be made of metal, with the clamps bent from steel plates, having holes at both ends and a curved arc in the middle; that is, made of metal. Furthermore, the best performance is achieved when the arc shape of both the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 3 is semi-circular.
[0038] In addition, please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The figures show the front view, top view, and left view of the fixing base 2. As can be seen, the two ends of the connecting rod 22 are fixed to the first clamp 21 and the angle plate 23, respectively. The angle plate 23 has four round holes in the middle, and the two fixing clips 1 can be fixed to the four round holes by nuts 4 and used to fix the two conduits 6. Similarly, the first clamp 21, connecting rod 22, and angle plate 23 can all be made of non-metallic materials, such as plastic. However, to improve stability and durability, the connecting rod 22 is a metal rod, specifically round steel. The angle plate 23 is made of metal angle steel. The first clamp 21, connecting rod 22, and angle plate 23 are connected by welding. That is, the first clamp 21, connecting rod 22, and angle plate 23 can also be made of metal. In actual manufacturing, the angle steel has four round holes in the middle, and the clamp is made of bent steel plate with holes at both ends and a curved arc in the middle. The round steel, angle steel, and clamp are welded together.
[0039] In summary, this embodiment utilizes a unique mechanical structure involving two fixing clips 1, several nuts 4 and bolts 5, a fixing base 2, and a second clamp 3. The two fixing clips 1 are inserted into the fixing base 2 and secured by nuts 4. Two conduits 6 are inserted into the two fixing clips, forming a set of two fixing clips 1 and two conduits 6. In use, the two conduits 6 are passed through the two sets of fixing clips 1 and the angled plate 23 respectively, and then secured between the fixing clips 1 and the angled plate 23 by nuts 4. Subsequently, the second clamp 3 cooperates with the first clamp 21, and the second clamp 3 and the first clamp 21 are fitted onto the outer wall of the platform column 7 using nuts 4 and bolts 5, thus achieving a stable fixation of the two conduits 6. Compared to traditional cable ties, this embodiment uses bolt tightening for secure fixing. The fixing effect of the two conduits 6 is better. Unlike cable ties, which are easy to swing and difficult to fix accurately, the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 3 of this fixing structure will not swing during installation. The installation angle can be adjusted according to the operation requirements, making the installation more stable and easier. After the UAV nest platform is installed, the conduits can be fixed to the legs by fixing devices according to the specific position and direction of the power line and signal line. The installation position is more flexible and the installation is more convenient. Moreover, the fixing clips, nuts, bolts, fixing bases and the second clamp of this device can be quickly disassembled with a wrench. They can be recycled after use in the previous facility, so they can be reused, reducing the use cost, saving resources, achieving good economic results and reducing costs.
[0040] In addition, a corrosion-resistant coating can be applied to the fixing clip 1, nut 4, bolt 5, first clamp 21, connecting rod 22, angle plate 23, and second clamp 3. Applying a corrosion-resistant coating improves the corrosion resistance of each component; for example, a silicon carbide coating can be used.
[0041] In addition to the aforementioned fixed structure for the cable conduit of the small UAV nest platform, this embodiment also provides a cable protection frame, including a platform column 7, a fixed structure, and a cable conduit 6.
[0042] The fixed structure is the fixed structure of the cable conduit of the small drone nest platform mentioned above; the cable conduit 6 is installed on the platform column 7 through the fixed structure. When in use, the protection effect can be directly activated by simply passing the power line and signal line of the drone nest through the cable conduit 6.
[0043] In summary, the cable protection frame in this embodiment is fixed to the platform column 7 with clamps, thus completing the overall structure fixation of the cable conduit. Through the special mechanical structure between the fixing clip 1, nut 4, bolt 5, fixing seat 2, and second clamp 3, when the second clamp 3 and the first clamp 21 are fitted onto the outer wall of the platform column 7 and fixed, the two cable conduits 6 can be simultaneously and securely fixed to one side of the platform column 7 by the two fixing clips 1. Compared with traditional cable tie fixing, this embodiment uses bolt tightening for better and more reliable fixing of the two cable conduits 6. Furthermore, since the fixing clip 1 has a pre-set space for the cable conduit 6 to enter, the installation of the cable conduit 6 becomes simpler. The position and angle of the second clamp 3 and the first clamp 21 on the platform column 7 can also be adjusted arbitrarily, improving the flexibility of the device. This fixing structure is detachable and movable, and can be flexibly used according to the actual position of the power cable and signal cable, effectively solving the problem of poor fixing effect of cable conduits in traditional UAV nest platforms.
