[0038] 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.

[0039] In one embodiment: Refer to Figures 1-3A quick-assembly and disassembly platform includes two parallel crossbars 1, which form the basic support frame of the platform. A fixed vertical bar 2 is welded and fixed to the surface of each crossbar 1. The position of the fixed vertical bar 2 is fixed relative to the crossbar 1 it is attached to. A movable vertical bar 3 is slidably fitted onto the surface of the crossbar 1. This means that the movable vertical bar 3 can be adjusted in position along the length of the crossbar 1. Mounting holes 4 are provided at the top of both the movable vertical bar 3 and the fixed vertical bar 2. These mounting holes 4 are used to connect to external mounting points under the helicopter, enabling the entire platform to be installed and fixed on the helicopter.

[0040] The platform also includes two parallel free rods 5. In the installed state, these two free rods 5 overlap the surfaces of the two crossbars 1, and their orientation is perpendicular to the crossbars 1. The free rods 5 constitute a secondary support structure for mounting aerial photography equipment. Two sliders 6 are fitted onto the outer wall of each free rod 5. Specifically, each slider 6 consists of an upper sliding sleeve 601 and a lower sliding sleeve 602. The upper sliding sleeve 601 and the lower sliding sleeve 602 are locked together with bolts, thus securely fitting onto the outer wall of the free rod 5. A common adapter plate 7 is fixedly mounted on the surface of multiple sliders 6 (i.e., a total of four sliders 6, two on each free rod 5). The adapter plate 7 is the component that directly supports and mounts the aerial photography equipment. Through holes 701 and multiple sets of mounting holes 8 are formed on the surface of the adapter plate 7. The through holes 701 can be used for wiring or to provide other functional channels, while the multiple sets of mounting holes 8 are used to adapt to the mounting interfaces on the bottom of different sizes of aerial photography equipment, fixing the equipment to the adapter plate 7 with bolts or other fasteners.

[0041] To ensure that the movable vertical rod 3 can be stably fixed to the horizontal rod 1 after being adjusted to the desired position, the platform is equipped with a first connecting mechanism. This first connecting mechanism is located between the movable vertical rod 3 and the horizontal rod 1, and its function is to connect and lock the movable vertical rod 3 to a specific position on the horizontal rod 1. In this embodiment, the specific structure of the first connecting mechanism includes: a connecting plate 13 welded to one side of the movable vertical rod 3; and multiple second threaded holes 12 on both sides of the horizontal rod 1. Second bolts 14 are inserted through both sides of the connecting plate 13. When the movable vertical rod 3 moves to the target position, the operator passes the second bolts 14 through the through holes on both sides of the connecting plate 13 and screws them into the corresponding second threaded holes 12 on both sides of the horizontal rod 1. By tightening the second bolts 14, the connecting plate 13 is pressed against the side wall of the horizontal rod 1, thereby firmly locking the movable vertical rod 3 in that position and preventing it from sliding during platform use.

[0042] To ensure a secure connection of the free rod 5 after it is adjusted to the desired position on the crossbar 1, the platform is equipped with a second connecting mechanism. This second connecting mechanism is located between the free rod 5 and the crossbar 1, and its function is to connect and fix the free rod 5 to a specific position on the crossbar 1. In this embodiment, the specific structure of the second connecting mechanism includes: multiple first threaded holes 9 on the surface of the crossbar 1; and multiple connecting holes 10 on the surface and bottom of the free rod 5. During installation, the operator selects a suitable connecting hole 10 on the free rod 5, passes a first bolt 11 through the connecting hole 10, and then screws it into the corresponding first threaded hole 9 on the surface of the lower crossbar 1. By tightening the first bolt 11, the free rod 5 is firmly pressed and fixed to the surface of the crossbar 1, ensuring that the free rod 5 will not shift or loosen during platform operation.

[0043] This application can be used in the aviation field, or in other fields where this application is applicable.

[0044] In another embodiment: a rapid mounting and dismounting platform for aerial photography equipment mounted on helicopters, which is applied to the aviation field;

[0045] To enhance the structural strength and torsional resistance of the connections between the fixed vertical bar 2 and the movable vertical bar 3 and the horizontal bar 1, a triangular plate 15 is welded to one side of each connection point. This triangular plate 15 acts as a reinforcing rib, effectively dispersing the stress transmitted to the welding point when the vertical bar is under load, thus improving the rigidity of the connection point and the overall stability of the platform.

[0046] To ensure the precise fixation of the slider 6 on the free rod 5 and prevent accidental rotation around the axis of the free rod 5, multiple positioning grooves 16 are provided along the length of the bottom of the free rod 5. Correspondingly, multiple positioning blocks 17 are fixedly provided on the inner wall of the bottom of the lower sliding sleeve 602. When the upper sliding sleeve 601 and the lower sliding sleeve 602 are locked onto the free rod 5 by bolts, the positioning blocks 17 on the inner wall of the lower sliding sleeve 602 will embed into the positioning grooves 16 at the bottom of the free rod 5. This cooperation between the positioning blocks 17 and the positioning grooves 16 restricts the slider 6 from sliding freely along the length of the free rod 5 (requiring the bolts to be loosened to move), ensuring the directional stability of the mounting plane of the adapter plate 7.

[0047] The accompanying drawings in this application are for illustrative purposes only. The dimensions and shapes of the components shown are not actual limitations but are merely schematic representations. In actual implementation, the components can be reasonably configured and adjusted according to specific needs and actual conditions.

[0048] 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.
