A corresponding first bolt is symmetrically screwed onto the connecting plate and the top plate. A corresponding second bolt is screwed onto the outer surface of one side of each of the two cylinders.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the top plate is driven to move downwards, which in turn moves the cylinder downwards and into the cylinder. At this time, the position of the top plate can be adjusted according to the size and width of the drone. Then, the corresponding second bolt can be rotated to position and install the cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, the adjusting mechanism includes corresponding adjusting holes on the lifting sleeve rod. The adjusting holes are through-holes, and one of the adjusting holes extends through to the fixed sleeve. A positioning post is provided in the adjusting hole.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting sleeve can be stretched inside the fixed sleeve by pulling the lifting sleeve upward, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting plate. The position can be adjusted according to the installation height requirements of the UAV. After the adjustment is completed, the positioning pin is inserted into the corresponding adjustment hole and the nut is turned to position and install the lifting sleeve.

[0011] Preferably, the plurality of adjustment holes are of the same size and are arranged in parallel.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up an L-shaped frame, the installation can be assisted.

[0017] Preferably, the fixed sleeve is respectively fitted with a first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket, and each of the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket is hinged with a corresponding hinge rod and a connecting sleeve, and the connecting sleeve is slidably fitted on the hinge rod.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket can play a role in auxiliary installation support.

[0019] Preferably, one end of each of the plurality of hinge rods is provided with a corresponding roller, and the connecting plate and the top plate are provided with corresponding anti-slip raised pads on the sides that are close to each other.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution and setting anti-slip raised pads, the contact area with the drone can be increased, thereby further improving the stability and firmness after fixing.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0022] 1. This application utilizes a top plate and other components to drive the top plate downwards. As the top plate moves downwards, it also moves the cylinder downwards into the cylinder. At this point, the position of the top plate can be adjusted according to the size and width of the drone. Then, the corresponding second bolt can be rotated to position and install the cylinder. This bracket does not require the use of elastic ropes for positioning and installation, so long-term use will not affect the safety and stability of drone positioning. Furthermore, it can also position and fix drones of different sizes, thus further improving the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0023] 2. This application employs a lifting sleeve rod and the like. By pulling the lifting sleeve rod upward, the lifting sleeve rod can be stretched inside the fixed sleeve, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting plate. This allows the position to be adjusted according to the installation height requirements of the UAV. After adjustment, the positioning pin is inserted into the corresponding adjustment hole, and the nut is rotated to position and install the lifting sleeve rod. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application discloses a drone mounting bracket.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-3 A drone mounting bracket includes a base 1, a fixing sleeve 2 fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, and a lifting sleeve 3 that can be raised and lowered inside the fixing sleeve 2. The lifting sleeve 3 in this application is set with 4-5 sections, and the length of a single section can be 1.5 meters. This application does not limit the specific number of sections of the lifting sleeve 3, which can be determined according to the usage requirements. The lifting sleeve 3 is provided with an adjustment mechanism, and a connecting plate 4 is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the lifting sleeve 3. The connecting plate 4 is provided with a fixing mechanism for positioning and installing the drone and a support mechanism set on the outside of the fixing sleeve 2.

[0032] The fixing mechanism includes two mounting seats 15 fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting plate 4. A corresponding cylinder 16 is fixedly installed on the top of each of the two mounting seats 15. A corresponding cylinder 17 can be raised and lowered inside each of the two cylinders 16. Two other mounting seats 15 are fixedly installed at one end of the top of each of the two cylinders 17. The same top plate 5 is fixedly installed on the other two mounting seats 15. The connecting plate 4 and the top plate 5 are hollow inside and can accommodate a corresponding first tension plate 10 and a second tension plate 11 that can be extended and retracted. A corresponding first bolt 14 is symmetrically screwed onto the connecting plate 4 and the top plate 5. A corresponding second bolt 18 is screwed onto the outer surface of one side of each of the two cylinders 16.

[0033] In use, the top plate 5 is driven to move downwards, which in turn moves the cylinder 17 downwards into the cylinder 16. The position of the top plate 5 can be adjusted according to the size and width of the drone. Then, the corresponding second bolt 18 is rotated to position and install the cylinder 17. This bracket does not require the use of elastic ropes for positioning and installation, so long-term use will not affect the safety and stability of drone positioning. It can also be used to position and fix drones of different sizes, thus further improving the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-2 The adjustment mechanism includes adjustment holes 6 on the lifting sleeve rod 3. The adjustment holes 6 are through holes, and one of the adjustment holes 6 extends through to the fixed sleeve 2. A positioning post 7 is provided in the adjustment hole 6. Threads 8 are symmetrically provided on the positioning post 7. A corresponding nut 9 is screwed onto each of the two threads 8. The multiple adjustment holes 6 are the same size and are arranged in parallel. A connecting frame 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the first tension plate 10. A connecting post 13 is movable inside the connecting frame 12. An L-shaped frame 19 is fixedly installed on the connecting post 13. The L-shaped frame 19 is fixedly installed with the second tension plate 11.

[0035] In use, by pulling the lifting sleeve 3 upward, the lifting sleeve 3 can be stretched inside the fixed sleeve 2, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting plate 4. The position can be adjusted according to the installation height requirements of the drone. After adjustment, the positioning pin 7 is inserted into the corresponding adjustment hole 6, and the nut 9 is rotated to position and install the lifting sleeve 3.

[0036] Reference Figure 3-4 The support mechanism includes a first mounting bracket 20 and a second mounting bracket 21 respectively fitted onto the fixed sleeve 2. The first mounting bracket 20 and the second mounting bracket 21 are each hinged with a corresponding hinge rod 22 and a connecting sleeve 24. The connecting sleeve 24 is slidably fitted onto the hinge rod 22. One end of each of the multiple hinge rods 22 is provided with a corresponding roller 23. The connecting plate 4 and the top plate 5 are each provided with a corresponding anti-slip raised pad on the side that is close to each other.

[0037] In use, by first unfolding the three hinge rods 22, the base 1 and the fixing sleeve 2 are stabilized on the ground. The first mounting bracket 20 and the second mounting bracket 21 on this bracket are both screwed with corresponding fastening screws, and the fixing method is the prior art. Therefore, the specific structure and usage process are not described in detail. Furthermore, this application does not limit the fixing method, and the specific method can be selected according to the usage requirements.

[0038] The implementation principle of the drone mounting bracket in this application embodiment is as follows: When in use, the three hinge rods 22 need to be unfolded first, so that the base 1 and the fixing sleeve 2 are stable on the ground. By pulling the lifting sleeve 3 upward, the lifting sleeve 3 can be stretched inside the fixing sleeve 2, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting plate 4. The position can be adjusted according to the installation height requirements of the drone. After the adjustment is completed, the positioning pin 7 is inserted into the corresponding adjustment hole 6, and the nut 9 is rotated to position and install the lifting sleeve 3.

[0039] Then, the personnel place the drone on the connecting plate 4 and drive the top plate 5 to move downwards. The downward movement of the top plate 5 will also drive the cylinder 17 to move downwards and into the cylinder 16. At this time, the position of the top plate 5 can be adjusted according to the size and width of the drone. Then, the corresponding second bolt 18 can be rotated to position and install the cylinder 17. The first tension plate 10 and the second tension plate 11 can increase the contact area with the drone. By rotating the first bolt 14, the corresponding first tension plate 10 and the second tension plate 11 after stretching can be positioned and fixed, thereby further improving the stability and firmness of the fixation.

[0040] This bracket eliminates the need for elastic cords for positioning and installation, ensuring that long-term use will not affect the safety and stability of drone positioning. It can also be used to position and fix drones of different sizes, thus further improving the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
