Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of express delivery drone technology, specifically a protective structure for express delivery drones. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of drone technology, drones are increasingly being used in the express delivery field. Due to their efficiency, speed, and flexibility, delivery drones have become an important means of solving delivery problems in remote areas or urban traffic congestion zones. However, during the delivery process, especially during the landing phase, the stability of the drone itself becomes a key factor affecting safety.

[0003] In actual operation, drones are affected by various factors such as wind direction, uneven terrain, and errors in the drone's own control system when landing, which causes the drone to tilt at the moment of landing. This tilt not only affects the landing stability of the drone, but may also cause the drone to roll further and collide violently with the ground, resulting in damage to the drone. In severe cases, it may even lead to the drone being scrapped, posing a great safety hazard and economic loss to the express delivery task. To this end, we propose a protective structure for express delivery drones. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a protective structure for express delivery drones, which solves the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a protective structure for a delivery drone, comprising a drone body, a support frame fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body, and an anti-tipping component provided on the outer wall of the drone body;

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] The preferred embodiment of the protective structure for the delivery drone provided by this utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown: A protective structure for a delivery drone includes a drone body 1, a support frame 10 fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body 1, and an anti-tipping component provided on the outer wall of the drone body 1.

[0026] The anti-tipping assembly includes a fixed plate 2, with a slidable brace 3 slidably connected to the outside of the fixed plate 2. A slider 5 is fixedly installed at the top of the brace 3. A groove 4 is provided on the outer wall of the fixed plate 2. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the groove 4. A limit rod 9 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove 4. A rod hole 6 is provided on the slider 5. The limit rod 9 moves through the rod hole 6. A spring 8 surrounds the outer wall of the limit rod 9. The spring 8 is fixedly installed between the top of the slider 5 and the top of the inner wall of the groove 4. A damping plate 7 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove 4. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the surface of the damping plate 7.

[0027] Specifically, in the above technical solution, when the delivery drone lands on the ground, if it collides significantly with the ground, causing the drone body 1 to tilt, the diagonal support leg 3 will contact the ground and provide some support to the drone body 1, preventing it from tilting further, rolling over, and colliding with the ground again, thus greatly improving the safety of the drone during landing. At the same time, by setting the spring 8 and the damping plate 7, the diagonal support leg 3 can provide some support and buffering, reducing the impact force on the diagonal support leg 3 and providing some protection for it.

[0028] Furthermore, slider 5 is adapted to slide groove 4.

[0029] Furthermore, there are four fixing plates 2, which are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the UAV body 1.

[0030] Furthermore, there are two support base frames 10, and a courier box 11 is placed between the two support base frames 10. The courier box 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support base frame 10.

[0031] The support frame 10 can support and fix the drone body 1 and the express box 11.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] Based on Embodiment 1, a preferred embodiment of the protective structure for the delivery drone provided by this utility model is, for example... Figures 1 to 5 As shown: A slider 2 13 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the express box 11. A groove 2 14 is opened on the inner wall of the support base 10. The slider 2 13 is slidably connected to the groove 2 14. A limit rod 2 17 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove 2 14. A rod hole 2 15 is opened on the slider 2 13. The limit rod 2 17 moves through the rod hole 2 15. A spring 2 16 surrounds the outer wall of the limit rod 2 17. The spring 2 16 is fixedly installed between the bottom end of the slider 2 13 and the bottom end of the inner wall of the groove 2 14. A damper 12 is fixedly installed between the bottom end of the express box 11 and the bottom end of the inner wall of the support base 10.

[0034] Specifically, in the above technical solution, when the support frame 10 contacts the ground, the express box 11 will drive the slider 2 13 to compress the spring 2 16, and the express box 11 will compress the damper 12. In this way, the express box 11 can play a certain buffering role when the drone lands, reducing the impact during landing, and thus playing a good protective role for the items inside the express box 11. The structure is simple and highly practical.

[0035] Furthermore, a pad 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body 1. The pad 18 is made of wear-resistant rubber.

[0036] By setting the pad 18, direct contact between the express box 11 and the drone body 1 can be avoided, thus providing a certain degree of protection for both the express box 11 and the drone body 1.
