Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone storage and transportation technology, and in particular to a fast charging structure for a rotary-wing drone storage and transportation box. Background Technology

[0002] As the battery life requirements for rotary-wing drones continue to increase, the need for "one drone with multiple batteries" is becoming increasingly common. This increased battery life requirement means that rotary-wing drones currently require frequent battery replacements or manual charging, which is inconvenient and increases workload.

[0003] The increased battery life requirements of large-volume rotary-wing drones necessitate frequent battery charging, which requires disassembling the battery or moving the drone body for charging, making the process inconvenient.

[0004] For large drones, it is essential to charge them simultaneously while they are being transported in a storage container. However, there are very high precision requirements for the charging interface connection. Since there will be a certain positional deviation after each drone lands in the storage container, the traditional fixed charging interface set in the storage container will fail to connect due to the large difference in position between the charging plug and the drone's charging port, resulting in charging failure.

[0005] In addition, due to the large charging current of large-volume drones, corresponding safety system cables are required, and special treatment is needed for cable routing and layout in confined spaces. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above problems, this utility model provides a fast charging structure for a rotary-wing drone storage and transportation box to overcome or at least partially solve the above problems.

[0007] This utility model provides the following solution:

[0008] A fast-charging structure for a rotary-wing drone storage and transport container includes:

[0009] A support unit, the lower end of which is used to connect to the bottom of the storage and transportation box;

[0010] The XY correction unit includes a first platform, a second platform, and a connecting plate. The first platform is provided with a first linear guide rail, and the second platform is provided with a second linear guide rail. The second platform is connected to the first linear guide rail, allowing the second platform to offset along the X direction. The connecting plate is connected to the second linear guide rail, allowing the connecting plate to offset along the Y direction. A plurality of centering springs are provided between the first platform and the second platform, and between the second platform and the connecting plate, for centering the second platform and the connecting plate.

[0011] A longitudinal compensation component is disposed between the top of the first platform and the top of the support unit;

[0012] A connector unit is connected to the connecting plate; the connector unit is used to connect to the charging port of the drone located inside the storage and transportation box.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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 a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 This invention provides a fast-charging structure for a rotary-wing drone storage and transportation box, as an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the structure may include:

[0027] Support unit 1, the lower end of which is used to connect to the bottom of the storage and transportation box;

[0028] The XY correction unit 2 includes a first platform 21, a second platform 22, and a connecting plate 23. The first platform 21 is provided with a first linear guide rail 24, and the second platform 22 is provided with a second linear guide rail 25. The second platform 22 is connected to the first linear guide rail 24, allowing the second platform 22 to offset along the X direction. The connecting plate 23 is connected to the second linear guide rail 25, allowing the connecting plate 23 to offset along the Y direction. A plurality of centering springs 26 are provided between the first platform 21 and the second platform 22, and between the second platform 22 and the connecting plate 23, for centering the second platform 22 and the connecting plate 23.

[0029] A longitudinal compensation component is disposed between the top of the first platform 21 and the top of the support unit 1; in a specific implementation, the longitudinal compensation component may include a bushing 31 and a floating spring 32.

[0030] A connector unit is provided, which is connected to the connecting plate 23. The connector unit is used to connect to the charging port of a drone located inside the storage and transportation box. In a specific implementation, the connector unit may include a mounting base 41 and a plug assembly 42, wherein the mounting base 41 is connected to the connecting plate 23.

[0031] In a specific implementation, the embodiment of this application may provide that the support unit 1 includes a support body 11 and a base 12. The support body 11 has a hollow structure and a wire-passing hole on its side. The hollow structure of the support body 11 can form a wire-passing channel inside, which facilitates wiring in the transfer box.

[0032] Furthermore, the main body 11 of the support column is made of fiberglass, which achieves both good strength and insulation.

[0033] The fast charging structure for the rotary-wing UAV storage and transportation box provided in this application embodiment has a glass fiber column structure for the main support body 11 to ensure the strength and rigidity of the charging mechanism. The bottom of the plug assembly 42 adopts a mounting base 41 and is connected to the XY correction unit 2 through a bushing 31 and a spring to ensure vertical freedom.

[0034] The XY correction unit 2 consists of two independent platforms (first platform 21 and second platform 22). Each platform has a linear guide rail at the bottom to ensure free movement in one direction, and two springs on each side to ensure that the two platforms can offset in different directions while centering.

[0035] To reduce overall weight, the main support body 11 has a reserved cable passage. The main support body 11 is hollow and has reserved cable routing holes. The bottom has a base 12 to ensure connection with the base of the storage and transportation box.

[0036] In use, this structure connects to the base of the storage box via the base 12, ensuring that the plug assembly 42 is aligned with the charging port of the drone that lands inside the storage box. Cables can be guided through the interior of the support body 11 into the storage box, connecting the power cable to the plug assembly 42. When the drone lands inside the storage box, and the plug assembly 42 contacts the charging port, the longitudinal pressure is first absorbed by the longitudinal supplementary component to prevent damage to the plug assembly 42 and the charging port. The drone's landing position may deviate in the X or Y direction. When a deviation occurs in one direction, the sliding of the XY correction unit 2 compensates for the deviation, ensuring smooth docking between the plug assembly 42 and the charging port.

[0037] In summary, the fast-charging structure for the rotorcraft drone storage and transport container provided in this application, considering the layout of the large drone body within a limited storage space, employs an adaptive connector to ensure accurate docking during charging, guaranteeing precise docking every time the drone body enters the container. The updated charging mechanism significantly reduces the overall weight, lightening the system load and achieving portability. The hollow design of the support column ensures strength while providing space for high-current cables, guaranteeing the overall system safety. This solution addresses the problem of fast charging rotorcraft drones within confined storage containers, offering advantages such as simple structure, low cost, and high performance.
