Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pickup truck rear cargo box structure modification technology, specifically a pickup truck rear cargo box modification structure for drone field operation transportation. Background Technology
[0002] During drone field operations, various specialized equipment needs to be carried, including large drones and tripods, precision instruments such as energy dispersive spectrometers with high shock resistance requirements, soil sampling tools of different sizes such as drill bits and shovels, and soil samples that need to be stored separately. These devices face multiple requirements during transportation and use, including classified storage, rapid retrieval, safety protection, and space utilization. However, the existing pickup truck bed has significant shortcomings: ordinary cargo boxes are stacked, which not only results in low retrieval efficiency but also lacks a fixed structure, making them prone to displacement and damage during transportation; simple dividers can achieve basic partitioning, but cannot accommodate the size differences and protection requirements of different devices; and fully customized modifications face problems such as high cost and poor adaptability, making it difficult to meet the flexible storage needs of multiple equipment combinations. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, this utility model proposes a modified pickup truck bed structure for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) field operation transportation. Through a reasonable layout and partition structure, it sets up storage units that are adapted to different equipment, realizing classified storage of equipment, quick access, safety protection and efficient use of space, and adapting to the flexible storage needs of multiple equipment combinations.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: This utility model provides a modified pickup truck rear cargo box structure for drone field operation transportation, including a pickup truck rear body, a cargo box shell, and multiple functional partitions inside it. The cargo box shell is fixed to the pickup truck rear chassis load-bearing structure by bolt connection and welding, and a multi-level partition system is constructed between the cargo box shell and the chassis through metal profile welding and sheet metal bolt connection to form a functional partition layout space. The cargo box shell has side top doors and side bottom doors on both sides near the front end of the vehicle, and side double doors are respectively configured on the side facades near the rear end of the vehicle. A set of rear double doors is configured at the top of the rear end of the cargo box shell. The vehicle body has a rear pull-down door at the bottom. The left side of the top side door is for storing the drone tripod, and the right side is for storing the drone charger. The left side of the bottom side door is for storing soil samples, and the right side is for storing the drone generator. Each of the double side doors is divided into three chambers. The top chamber of the left double door is for storing soil sampling tools, and the middle and bottom chambers are for storing the energy dispersive spectrometer. The top chamber of the right double door is for storing the fog cooling box, and the middle and bottom chambers are for storing the drone battery. The rear double door is for storing the drone body and tripod, and the rear pull-down door is for storing the drone body.
[0005] Furthermore, the side top door, side bottom door, side double door, and rear double door assemblies are all connected to the side frame of the cargo box via concealed hinges. The hinges are equipped with angle limiting and buffer damping structures. The side top door and the side top door are both side-opening doors, with an outward opening angle of 0°-90°. The double doors can be opened outward to a set angle. When closed, they are all locked by multi-point door locks to ensure sealing and structural strength. The rear pull-down door assembly achieves vertical lifting and lowering through a sliding rail mechanism. When closed, it is sealed and locked to the cargo box, facilitating loading and unloading of materials and optimizing space utilization.
[0006] Furthermore, the drone charger storage area is enclosed by anti-static panels to form an independent electromagnetic compatibility environment.
[0007] Furthermore, the storage area for the drone generator is enclosed by aluminum silicate fiber heat insulation board and equipped with sealing strips. The bottom of the storage area is equipped with a retractable generator support structure, which includes a support plate, a concave fixing block and a support arm. The bottom of the support plate has two sets of protruding structures, including an outer edge protruding structure and an inner protruding structure. The outer edge protruding structure can fit against the outer edge of the concave fixing block, which enables the support plate to be pulled out.
[0008] The internal protrusion structure is connected to the support arm by bolts. When the support arm is in the retracted state, it can fit against the internal protrusion structure and its height is the same as that of the concave fixing block. When in operation, it can be pulled out to a vertical state to form an external working platform, which facilitates heat dissipation when the generator is externally charged and meets its charging structure requirements, while ensuring a compact space layout when retracted.
[0009] Furthermore, the fog-cooled box storage area is equipped with a fixed fog-cooled box slot structure, and the drone battery storage area is equipped with a battery slot structure with a sliding rail. The sliding rail design at the bottom of the battery slot structure with a sliding rail facilitates the removal and replacement of batteries, meeting the needs of field operations.
[0010] Furthermore, the drone storage area is equipped with a pull-out drone loading platform, which is dedicated to storing the drone itself.
[0011] Furthermore, the storage area for the mining tools is equipped with a downward-sloping wedge-shaped gate, which is inclined downwards along the gate to ensure the stability of the tools during transportation.
[0012] Furthermore, the partition of the energy dispersive spectrometer storage area integrates shock absorption and heat insulation functions, which can reduce the transmission of mechanical vibrations generated during vehicle operation and maintain a stable temperature environment.
[0013] Furthermore, the outer shell of the container and the partitions of each functional area are reinforced to ensure the stability of equipment transportation, meet the needs of UAV field operation equipment and material classification and storage, and improve space utilization efficiency and storage security.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that by constructing a multi-level, differentiated functional storage system in the rear compartment of a pickup truck, using metal partitions to divide independent chambers and sub-areas, and combining it with heat insulation, tilt limiting, and shockproof adaptable structures, it can achieve precise classification and storage of equipment and materials such as drones, soil samples, batteries, generators, and energy dispersive spectrometers, meeting the storage environment requirements of different equipment. At the same time, it can improve the efficiency of cargo space utilization by rationally planning and expanding the structure. Furthermore, through the reinforcement, shockproof, and heat insulation design of the partitions, it can ensure the stability and safety of equipment during transportation, effectively solving the problems of difficult classification, poor protection, and unreasonable space utilization when transporting and storing equipment for field operations, and providing reliable logistical equipment support for drone field operations.
