[0002] Artificial intelligence-enabled drones with data collection capabilities are applied in fields such as urban management and emergency rescue, agricultural monitoring, and environmental monitoring. These AI-powered data collection drones have restructured traditional operating modes through three core capabilities: high-precision imaging, real-time AI analysis, and autonomous navigation.

[0003] The drones currently used for data collection include drones with motors at all four ends, a rotating shaft at the top of each motor, and fan blades fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the rotating shaft. A rotating device is located at the bottom of the middle part of the drone, and a camera is located at the bottom of the rotating device.

[0004] Existing drones with data acquisition capabilities still have the following problems: When the drone is flying at a long distance, if obstacles appear at its bottom, staff may not be able to detect them in time, which could damage or even destroy the drone, resulting in increased costs. Furthermore, the lens cannot be wiped during flight, which can easily cause it to become blurry, affecting the later acquisition of images and reducing the stability of the acquired images. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an AI-based drone with data acquisition capabilities. It uses an infrared detector to detect obstacles on the bottom, preventing damage to the drone's frame. When an obstacle appears on the bottom, the infrared detector detects it and transmits the information to the operator's controller for observation, thereby improving drone frame safety and reducing costs. Furthermore, during flight, a brush strip cleans the camera surface, improving cleaning efficiency and enhancing the stability of the acquired images.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

A safety distance detection frame structure 4 is installed on the inner side of the support frame 3. A camera cleaning plate structure 5 is installed at the lower middle position of the drone frame 1.

[0023] In this implementation plan, in conjunction with the appendix Figure 3 As shown, the safety distance detection frame structure 4 includes a side baffle 41. A shielding plate 42 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front end of the side baffle 41. A main controller 43 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the front end of the side baffle 41. A wire 44 is inserted into the inner side of the main controller 43. An infrared detector 45 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the shielding plate 42. The upper part of the infrared detector 45 is inserted into the outer side of the wire 44.

[0024] In this implementation plan, in conjunction with the appendix Figure 4 As shown, the camera cleaning plate structure 5 includes a box body 51, a camera 52 is fixedly installed at the front end of the box body 51, a sliding rod 53 is fixedly installed at the upper part of the front end of the box body 51, a linear motor 54 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the front end of the box body 51, a brush strip 55 is fixedly installed on the outside of the linear motor 54, and the upper part of the brush strip 55 is fixedly installed on the outside of the sliding rod 53.

[0025] In this embodiment, specifically, the left and right sides of the side baffle 41 are respectively fixedly installed on the inner sides of the two support frames 3.

[0026] In this embodiment, specifically, the upper part of the box 51 is fixedly installed at the lower middle position of the drone frame 1.

[0029] Working principle

[0030] In this invention, during use, the propeller 2 is first started using the program inside the drone frame 1. After the propeller 2 rotates, the drone frame 1 is adjusted to a suitable height. Then, the camera 52 is used to collect images. If an object obstructs the image during flight, causing the image to become blurry, the main controller 43 is used to start the linear motor 54. The linear motor 54 drives the brush strip 55 to move. The upper part of the brush strip 55 is limited by the sliding rod 53. The brush strip 55 cleans the surface of the camera 52, improving the cleaning efficiency of the camera 52. In addition, the infrared detector 45 detects the distance at the bottom to prevent obstacles from damaging the drone frame 1, thus improving the safety of the drone frame 1.
