Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shock absorber technology, and more specifically, to a shock absorber for a remote sensor infrared module. Background Technology

[0002] In applications where drones are equipped with remote sensors to perform missions, the infrared module of the remote sensor, as a precise sensing device, has stringent requirements for operational stability. During flight, the drone is affected by factors such as airflow disturbances and motor vibrations, which will generate continuous and complex vibration interference. If these vibrations are not effectively buffered, they can easily lead to blurred imaging of the infrared module and errors in data acquisition, which will seriously affect its accurate identification and monitoring functions of targets and shorten the service life of the equipment.

[0003] In existing structures used for support and vibration damping, the spherical rubber components of the vibration damping bracket are key damping parts, but they are prone to damage. In actual use, dust, debris, and other impurities easily adhere to the surface and gaps of the spherical rubber components. These impurities act like fine abrasives, accelerating the wear of the spherical rubber components. Some impurities contain corrosive components, which trigger chemical reactions upon contact, accelerating rubber aging, reducing its elasticity, and making it hard and brittle. At the same time, the spherical rubber components continuously deform and rub during vibration. Under the influence of impurities, the damping effect is weakened, making it difficult to effectively buffer vibrations. It can also easily lead to poor installation stability of the remote sensor infrared module, causing displacement and interfering with normal operation. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a shock absorber for a remote sensor infrared module, which solves the technical problem in the prior art that dust, debris and other impurities are easily adsorbed on the surface and gaps of spherical rubber parts, and that the impurities are like fine abrasives, which will accelerate the wear of spherical rubber parts.

[0005] In view of the above problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A shock absorber for a remote sensor infrared module includes a mounting plate, a connecting plate located below the mounting plate, and several rubber balls connected between the two.

[0007] Furthermore, the outer wall cleaning section includes a frame-shaped scraper that is slidably fitted outside the dustproof mesh cover and a number of lifting rods that slide through the inner wall of the mounting frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting rod consists of a base rod and several assembly rods.

Several assembly rods are detachably connected in sequence, and the uppermost assembly rod is detachably connected to the bottom end of the base rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a stud is fixed to the top of the assembly rod, and threaded holes that are compatible with the stud are opened at the bottom of both the assembly rod and the base rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a rubber pad layer is glued to the outer wall of the connecting plate, and the rubber pad layer is attached to the inner wall of the dustproof mesh cover.

[0011] Furthermore, a bracket is fixed to the bottom of the connecting plate, and a second mounting plate is fixed to the bottom of the bracket. Screw mounting holes are provided through the four corners of both the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 A shock-absorbing frame for a remote sensor infrared module includes a mounting plate 1, a connecting plate 2 located below the mounting plate 1, and several rubber balls 3 connected between the two. A bracket 4 is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting plate 2, and a mounting plate 5 is fixed to the bottom end of the bracket 4. Screw mounting holes are provided through the four corners of the mounting plate 1 and the mounting plate 2. The shock-absorbing frame, composed of the mounting plate 1, connecting plate 2, rubber balls 3, bracket 4, and mounting plate 2, is used to connect the mounting plate 1 to a designated position on the bottom of the UAV. The mounting plate 2 is used to install the remote sensor infrared module. When the remote sensor infrared module is subjected to vibration during operation of the UAV, the vibration is transmitted through the mounting plate 1. The rubber balls 3 absorb and buffer the vibration through elastic deformation. The residual vibration is transmitted through the connecting plate 2 and bracket 4 to the mounting plate 2, where it is significantly attenuated before being transmitted to the module, thus achieving shock absorption and protection.

[0022] For further details, please refer to Figure 2-4 It also includes a protective mechanism to improve the performance of the rubber ball 3. The protective mechanism includes a dustproof mesh cover 6 that covers the outside of the connecting plate 2. The top of the dustproof mesh cover 6 is detachably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1 by screws. By setting the dustproof mesh cover 6, on the one hand, it can effectively block dust, debris and other impurities from contacting the rubber ball 3, prevent impurities from adhering to the surface and gaps of the rubber ball 3, reduce the wear and aging of the rubber ball 3 caused by friction and erosion of impurities, and maintain its shock absorption performance. On the other hand, by utilizing its own breathability, it can allow air to circulate in the space where the rubber ball 3 is located, prevent moisture and heat from accumulating in the closed environment, prevent the rubber ball 3 from aging and losing elasticity due to moisture and high temperature, ensure the stability of the shock absorption function, and the detachable design makes it convenient for regular cleaning and maintenance, improving the convenience of use.

[0023] For further details, please refer to Figure 2A rubber pad 9 is glued to the outer wall of the connecting plate 2, and the rubber pad 9 is in contact with the inner wall of the dustproof mesh cover 6. Through the setting of the rubber pad 9, its own elasticity and flexibility can fill the assembly gap between the connecting plate 2 and the dustproof mesh cover 6, further enhancing the dustproof sealing effect and reducing the seepage of fine impurities from the gaps. At the same time, the rubber pad 9 can absorb the vibration and collision between the dustproof mesh cover 6 and the connecting plate 2, avoiding rigid friction, abnormal noise or structural damage caused by the vibration of the drone flight, and improving the stability and quietness of the overall structure.

[0024] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 The bottom of the dustproof mesh cover 6 is detachably connected to a mounting frame 8 via screws. The mounting frame 8 is equipped with an outer wall cleaning section, which includes a frame-shaped scraper 10 that slides around the dustproof mesh cover 6 and several lifting rods that slide through the inner wall of the mounting frame 8. With the outer wall cleaning section, when the shock absorber is used on a drone with a remote sensor infrared module, the bottom of the lifting rod is pre-grounded when the drone lands, and then it retracts through the inner wall of the mounting frame 8, causing the frame-shaped scraper 10 to slide along the outer wall of the dustproof mesh cover 6. This scrapes away dust, debris and other impurities attached to the outside of the dustproof mesh cover 6, keeping the dustproof mesh cover 6 clean and ensuring its breathability and dustproof function are stable. Automatic cleaning is achieved through mechanical linkage when landing, without additional operation, improving maintenance convenience. Furthermore, the detachability of the mounting frame 8 allows for easy replacement of the frame-shaped scraper 10 and lifting rods by simply loosening the screws and removing the mounting rod 7 later, further enhancing convenience.

[0025] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lifting rod consists of a base rod 11 and several assembly rods 7. The base rod 11 is recessed into the inner wall of the mounting frame 8, and its top end is fixed to the bottom surface of the frame-shaped scraper 10. The several assembly rods 7 are detachably connected in sequence, and the topmost assembly rod 7 is detachably connected to the bottom end of the base rod 11. By setting up the base rod 11 and several assembly rods 7, the overall length of the lifting rod can be flexibly adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of assembly rods 7 according to the ground conditions at the drone landing site, such as ground flatness and obstacle height. This ensures that after the drone lands, regardless of the ground elevation, the lifting rod can accurately push the frame-shaped scraper 10 to slide effectively along the outer wall of the dustproof net cover 6.

[0026] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 The top of the assembly rod 7 is fixed with a stud, and the bottom of both the assembly rod 7 and the base rod 11 are provided with screw holes that are compatible with the stud. With the stud and screw holes, the two sets of assembly rods 7 and the assembly rod 7 and the base rod 11 can be quickly connected by simply screwing the stud into the screw hole. The operation is convenient and does not require additional tools, which greatly simplifies the process of adjusting the length of the lifting rod.

[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
