[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a delivery device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including a mounting plate 1. Two mounting components 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1. A delivery box 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mounting components 2. A protective cover 4 and a limiting component 5 are fixed to one edge of the delivery box 3. A door 6 is hinged to the other edge of the delivery box 3. A left flip-top component 7 and a right flip-top component 8 are fixedly connected to the two sides of the lower back of the delivery box 3, respectively.

[0029] Mounting component 2 includes mounting piece 201, clip 202, adjusting column 203 and limiting piece 204;

[0030] The limiting component 5 includes an intelligent first motor 501, a positive and negative threaded rod 502, a moving part 503, and a limiting plate 504.

[0031] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The mounting component 2 includes a mounting piece 201 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1. A clip 202 is slidably connected to the surface of the mounting piece 201. One end of the mounting piece 201 has a threaded hole, and an adjusting post 203 is threadedly connected inside the threaded hole. One end of the adjusting post 203 is fixedly connected to a limit piece 204.

[0032] With the installation component 2 in place, when in use, after the mounting plate 1 is connected to the connecting parts on the drone, the clip 202 is aligned with one end of the mounting piece 201 and pushed forward to clip the clip 202 onto the mounting piece 201. The adjusting column 203 is rotated to keep the limiting piece 204 vertical, thus fixing the clip 202 and the mounting piece 201 in place. When the delivery box 3 is no longer needed or when it needs to be replaced or maintained, the adjusting column 203 is rotated again to make the limiting piece 204 horizontal, allowing the delivery box 3 to be removed from the drone. This facilitates maintenance and improves the ease of use of the delivery device.

[0033] Please see Figure 4The limiting component 5 includes an intelligent first motor 501 fixedly connected to one side edge of the delivery box 3. The output end of the intelligent first motor 501 is fixedly connected to a positive and negative threaded rod 502. The surface of the positive and negative threaded rod 502 is threadedly connected to two moving parts 503. The bottom ends of the two moving parts 503 are fixedly connected to a limiting plate 504. The bottom surface of the limiting plate 504 is rotatably connected to two rollers 9. A groove is opened on one side of the limiting plate 504, and a rubber protective pad 10 is fixedly connected inside the groove.

[0034] With the setting of the limiting component 5, when in use, the item is placed inside the delivery box 3, and the intelligent first motor 501 is started by the drone controller. The forward and reverse threaded rod 502 rotates, moving the moving part 503, so that the limiting plate 504 fixes the item. At the same time, the rubber protective pad 10 is soft and can protect the item. When delivery, the limiting plate 504 moves to both sides to release the fixed item, thereby achieving the function of fixing the item and preventing the item from moving inside the delivery box with the movement of the drone, which may cause damage to the item. This helps to improve the safety of the delivery device.

[0035] Please see Figure 3 The left flip-top assembly 7 includes a smart second motor 701 fixedly connected to one side of the lower back of the dispensing box 3. The output end of the smart second motor 701 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod, and one end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a left bottom plate 702. A slot is provided on one side of the bottom surface of the left bottom plate 702. The right flip-top assembly 8 includes a smart third motor 801 fixedly connected to the other side of the lower back of the dispensing box 3. The output end of the smart third motor 801 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod, and one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a right bottom plate 802. A recessed groove is provided on the top surface of the right bottom plate 802. The inner bottom wall of the dispensing box 3 has a dispensing port 11, which is adapted to the left bottom plate 702 and the right bottom plate 802.

[0036] The controller connected to the drone starts the intelligent second motor 701 and the intelligent third motor 801, causing the right base plate 802 and the left base plate 702 to flip down, exposing the delivery port 11 for easy delivery of items.

[0037] Please see Figure 2 The bottom of the container 3 is fixedly connected to the base frame 12 around its perimeter, and the two sides of the bottom of the base frame 12 are fixedly connected to the support blocks.

[0038] The base frame 12 and support blocks facilitate the stability of the delivery box 3.

[0039] Working principle: During use, after the mounting plate 1 is connected to the connecting parts on the drone, the locking piece 202 is aligned with one end of the mounting piece 201 and pushed forward to lock the locking piece 202 onto the mounting piece 201. The adjusting column 203 is rotated to keep the limiting piece 204 vertical, thus fixing the locking piece 202 and the mounting piece 201 in place. When the delivery box 3 is no longer needed or for replacement or maintenance, the adjusting column 203 is rotated again to make the limiting piece 204 horizontal, allowing the delivery box 3 to be removed from the drone. Items are placed inside the delivery box 3. The drone's controller is then used to start the intelligent first motor 501 and the forward / reverse threaded rod 50. 2. Rotation causes the moving part 503 to move, which in turn fixes the item in place by the limiting plate 504. Meanwhile, the rubber protective pad 10 is soft and can protect the item. During deployment, the controller of the drone is connected, and by controlling the start of the intelligent second motor 701 and intelligent third motor 801, the right bottom plate 802 and the left bottom plate 702 flip down to expose the deployment port 11, which facilitates the deployment of the item. The limiting plate 504 moves to both sides to deploy the fixed item. The above is the working process of the entire device. All contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
