Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, and in particular relates to a protective device for inspection UAVs. Background Technology
[0002] Inspection drones, as efficient tools in industries such as power, oil and gas, and security, have significantly improved operational efficiency and safety thanks to their flexibility, mobility, and precise detection capabilities. However, in complex environments, they often face risks such as collisions with obstacles, sudden airflow impacts, and corrosion from severe weather, which can easily lead to fuselage damage and component failures. This not only increases maintenance costs but may also interrupt inspection missions or even cause safety accidents. To extend the service life of drones and ensure operational continuity, targeted protective structures are crucial, requiring a balance between protective performance and equipment flexibility to provide reliable protection for inspection drones.
[0003] However, the existing protective devices are not convenient to install on the drone during use, requiring staff to spend a lot of time operating them, which increases the preparation time required for drone use and thus affects the efficiency of the entire inspection operation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a protective device for inspection drones. By setting up a quick-installation part, it solves the problem that existing protective devices are inconvenient to install the protective frame on the drone during use, requiring staff to spend a lot of time operating it, thereby increasing the preparation time required for drone use and affecting the efficiency of the entire inspection operation.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model is a protective device for an inspection drone, including a drone and two protective frames mounted on top of the drone. It also includes: a quick-release section, of which several quick-release sections are located at the bottom of the two protective frames; an anti-detachment section, of which several anti-detachment sections are located below the two protective frames; each quick-release section includes a connecting component located at the bottom of the protective frame; and a reset component, of which several reset components are located outside the drone. The connecting component includes a bracket fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective frame, the bracket having two sliding grooves, each with a clamping block slidably connected to its inner wall, and a rubber pad fixedly connected to the side of each clamping block that is close to each other. The two sliding grooves, the two clamping blocks, and the two rubber pads are mirror images of each other, and the reset components are respectively disposed within the two sliding grooves.
[0007] Furthermore, the anti-detachment part includes a limiting component, of which two limiting components are provided, and the two limiting components are respectively disposed on the two clamping blocks; and a buckle component, of which two buckle components are provided, and the two buckle components are disposed on the two clamping blocks; wherein, the two limiting components are arranged in a mirror image, and the two buckle components are distributed circumferentially.
[0008] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes two hinged bases disposed within the slide groove. The hinged base near the clamping block is fixedly connected to the clamping block, and the hinged base away from the clamping block is fixedly connected to the slide groove. An elastic element is disposed between the two hinged bases. The elastic element is located within the slide groove and includes two hinged blocks respectively hinged to the two hinged bases. A spring is disposed between the two hinged blocks, and the spring is fixedly connected to the two hinged blocks respectively on the side near the two hinged blocks. The cooperation of the hinged bases, hinged blocks, and spring can provide a reset elastic force after the clamping block is pulled, thereby achieving rapid fixation of the protective frame and the drone.
[0009] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a second slide groove formed within the clamping block, and two pressing members are disposed within the second slide groove. The two pressing members are mirror images of each other. Each pressing member includes a slider slidably connected to the inner wall of the second slide groove. Two springs are fixedly connected to the side of the slider away from the connecting block, and the sides of both springs away from the slider are fixedly connected to the second slide groove. The two springs are mirror images of each other. With the help of the slider and springs within the second slide groove, the snap-fit assembly can be pressed and limited, enhancing the stability of the snap-fit connection.
[0010] Furthermore, the buckle assembly includes connecting blocks respectively disposed in two slide grooves, each of which is fixedly connected with a buckle, and a handle is fixedly connected to the side of each connecting block away from the two buckles; wherein, both buckles are L-shaped blocks, and the side of each buckle away from the two connecting blocks is chamfered. By using the L-shaped buckles with chamfers, connecting blocks and handles, the two clamping blocks can be quickly hooked and fixed to prevent the protective frame from loosening and falling off.
[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. By setting up a quick-release part, the clamping block is pulled along the slide groove, causing the spring to stretch and generate elastic force; after the clamping block is put on the drone shell, it is released, and the spring force drives the clamping block to return to its original position. The rubber pad completes the fixation, realizing the quick installation of the protective frame. The protective frame can be fixed on the drone with simple operation, without the need for staff to spend a lot of time on drone preparation, thus ensuring the overall efficiency of the inspection operation.
[0013] 2. By setting an anti-detachment part, hold the handle and insert the connecting block into the slide groove two. The buckles squeeze each other, causing the slider to compress the spring two. Continue to push the handle, and the buckles interlock. The elasticity of the spring two makes the slider lock the buckle assembly, preventing the protective frame from falling off. The two clamps can be fixed by the buckles, avoiding the protective frame from loosening and falling off the drone during drone operation, thus ensuring the stable operation of the device.
[0014] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

By setting the quick-release part 2, the protective frame 102 can be fixed on the drone 101 with simple operation, without the need for staff to spend a lot of time on the preparation of the drone 101, thus ensuring the overall efficiency of the inspection operation.
[0027] The anti-detachment part 3 includes two limiting components 31, each disposed on one of the two clamping blocks 213; and two snap-fit components 32, each disposed on one of the two clamping blocks 213.

[0028] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: In use, the protective frame 102 can be moved above the drone 101, where the drone 101 is a Honeycomb Aerospace HC-332, which adopts a hybrid power system and is provided with lift by three sets of six rotors coaxially mounted on the top and bottom. By changing the rotor speed, the attitude is adjusted to achieve position control. It is equipped with a fully automatic flight control system and can complete tasks such as autonomous take-off and landing and flight along a route according to preset instructions. Then, the clamping block 213 is pulled open so that it slides in the slide groove 212. At this time, under the action of several hinge bases 221 and several hinge blocks 222, the spring 223 will be stretched and generate elastic force. Then, the two clamping blocks 213 can be put on the shell of the drone 101. Then, the clamping blocks 213 are released. At this time, under the action of the elastic force of the spring 223, the two clamping blocks 213 will be driven to return to their original position, thereby putting the rubber pad 214 on the drone 101. On the outer casing, at this time, two buckle assemblies 32 can be placed, and two handles 323 can be held. Several connecting blocks 321 can be inserted into the slide groove 311. When the two opposite buckles 322 come into contact with each other, they will be squeezed against each other, thereby squeezing several sliders 312. At this time, several springs 313 will be compressed and generate elastic force. At this time, the two handles 323 can be pushed to make several buckles 322 interlock and hook each other. At this time, under the action of the elastic force of the springs 313, the sliders 312 will lock the buckle assembly 32. When it is necessary to remove the protective frame 102, the two moving handles 323 can be engaged to move one upward and the other downward. At this time, several buckles 322 will separate. Then the two buckle assemblies 32 can be pulled open to make the two clamps 213 unrestricted. Then the quick-release part 2 can be operated in reverse to remove the protective frame 102.
