Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of modular design and multifunctional equipment, specifically a modular layout multifunctional combination device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of modular technology, modular layouts have been widely used in the design of various equipment and systems. Especially in the field of complex functional integrated devices, modular structures have become an important means to improve design flexibility, assembly efficiency, and multifunctional reconfiguration capabilities. However, in practical applications, existing modular layout schemes still have certain limitations and cannot fully meet the high-performance requirements of new, multifunctional combined devices.

[0003] A search revealed that a "modular multi-purpose compound wing layout UAV" with publication number CN110844062B achieves dual-mode flight capability through the parallel combination of rotor and flying wing units, and can carry different equipment according to mission requirements. While this technology improves the UAV's mission adaptability, it primarily focuses on performance optimization of the aviation platform itself and does not address mechanisms for rapid disassembly and reconfiguration between multiple functional modules. Furthermore, its overall structure is relatively complex, limiting rapid deployment in different scenarios. In addition, this solution lacks sufficient consideration for module interface compatibility and functional scalability, making it difficult to support extensive function replacement or cross-platform reuse.

[0004] Another publicly disclosed design, CN113955092B, describes a "modular canard vertical takeoff and landing fixed-wing UAV" that employs a forward-mounted canard wing layout to improve aerodynamic efficiency and enables wing folding to adapt to takeoff and landing requirements in confined spaces. While this design represents a breakthrough in flight performance, its modularity is primarily reflected in the wing structure, failing to form a complete set of multi-functional modules for users to freely assemble and use according to their needs. Therefore, this design lacks a unified, standardized interface design for key subsystems such as mission payload, control system, and energy components, limiting its flexible scalability in diverse application scenarios.

[0005] The aforementioned issues indicate that while some publicly available modular layout solutions possess a certain degree of functional adjustability or structural flexibility, they still have shortcomings in areas such as module interface standardization, functional scalability, and rapid reconfiguration capabilities. These limitations prevent them from adequately meeting the requirements of a highly integrated, multifunctional modular assembly capable of rapidly switching between multiple tasks. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a novel modular layout multifunctional assembly that can achieve efficient collaboration and rapid replacement between modules while maintaining a compact structure, thereby overcoming the deficiencies of existing technologies.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] This utility model provides a modular, multifunctional assembly device. The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the multifunctional combined device of this utility model includes a main frame 10, a functional module group 20, a control module 30, and an interface module 40. The main frame 10 has a module housing cavity for installing different functional modules. The portion corresponding to the functional module group 20 adopts a detachable structure design to allow for flexible replacement and maintenance of the modules. At least part of the functional module group 20 is located within the module housing cavity, used to perform specific tasks and transmit data or energy along a first direction. The interface module 40 includes multiple signal terminals 42. It receives command signals through the control module 30 and controls at least two signal terminals 42 to dynamically switch signals along the first direction according to the command signals, thereby ensuring consistent signal switching effects along the data or energy flow path and improving the flexibility and practicality of the device.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the main frame 10 serves as the supporting structure for the entire multifunctional modular device. Its internal space is rationally divided into multiple areas to accommodate different functional components. The module housing cavity is located inside the main frame 10, through which the functional module group 20 is installed and fixed. The main frame 10 also features an expansion interface for connecting the module housing cavity to external equipment, enabling the device to interact with the external environment for data or energy. To facilitate module installation and replacement, the portion of the main frame 10 corresponding to the functional module group 20 adopts a detachable structural design, such as using bolt connections or snap-fit ​​structures for quick assembly and disassembly. This design not only improves the modularity of the device but also enhances its adaptability, allowing users to replace or upgrade modules in the functional module group 20 according to their actual needs.

[0033] The core function of functional module group 20 is to perform specific tasks and transmit data or energy along the first direction. For example... Figure 3As shown, the functional module group 20 includes a processor 21 and wires 22. The processor 21 is located below the expansion interface and is used to process data or control signals. One end of the wire 22 is connected to the processor 21, and the other end extends into the module housing cavity, connecting the processor 21 to other modules in the functional module group 20, thereby forming a complete signal or energy transmission path. In a specific embodiment, the functional module group 20 also includes a sensor module 50, which is electrically connected to the control module 30 and is used to convert external environmental parameters into command signals, further enhancing the intelligence level of the device. For example, in a smart home scenario, the sensor module 50 can detect indoor environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity, and convert these parameters into command signals, enabling intelligent control of devices such as air conditioners and humidifiers through the control module 30.

[0034] The interface module 40 is an important component of this utility model, and its core structure includes an interface board 41 and multiple signal terminals 42. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the interface board 41 is arranged along the height direction of the multi-functional assembly, and at least some of the signal terminals 42 are spaced apart along the height direction on the interface board 41. In a preferred embodiment, the interface board 41 is arranged around the central axis of the multi-functional assembly to form a ring structure, and the signal terminals 42 are arranged circumferentially along the outer side of the interface board 41. This design not only increases the distribution density of the signal terminals 42, but also makes signal switching more flexible and efficient. In addition, a ring-shaped channel is formed on the inner side of the interface board 41, through which the wires 22 in the functional module group 20 can pass and connect to the expansion interface, thereby realizing efficient transmission of signals or energy.

[0035] To further optimize the structural design of the device, this utility model also includes a support assembly 60, which consists of an annular portion 61 and a base 62. Figure 2 As shown, an annular portion 61 is disposed on a base 62, which is connected to the main frame 10 to form a first mounting area and a second mounting area. The annular portion 61 is located within the first mounting area, and the interface plate 41 is arranged around the outside of the annular portion 61. The second mounting area is located on the side of the base 62 away from the annular portion 61, and the module receiving cavity is located within this area. A transmission channel 63 is provided within the support assembly 60, which passes through the annular portion 61 to provide a path for the wires 22 in the functional module group 20. In one specific embodiment, the diameter of the transmission channel 63 can be adjusted according to the number and size of the wires 22 to ensure efficient signal or energy transmission.

[0036] The interface bracket 70 is another important component of this utility model. It has a recess 701 inside, an annular portion 61 is disposed within the recess 701, and the interface plate 41 is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the interface bracket 70. For example... Figure 3As shown, the interface bracket 70 has a first mounting platform 702 near the expansion interface. The first mounting platform 702 is connected to the main frame 10, and a fixing groove 7021 is provided at the position corresponding to the expansion interface. The fixing groove 7021 is located below the expansion interface, and the processor 21 is disposed in the fixing groove 7021. This design not only achieves stable installation of the processor 21, but also effectively reduces the overall size of the device. In addition, a first sealing ring 80 is provided at the connection between the interface bracket 70 and the main frame 10. The first sealing ring 80 is arranged along the circumferential outer side of the processor 21 to improve the sealing performance of the device and prevent dust or moisture from entering the device.

[0037] To improve the electromagnetic compatibility of the device, this utility model also includes a shielding component 100, which surrounds the interface module 40 and is located between the interface module 40 and the main frame 10. Figure 4 As shown, the shielding component 100 has a groove 101 on the side near the main frame 10. The groove 101 is wavy and extends along the height direction of the multi-functional assembly to opposite ends of the shielding component 100. This design not only enhances the strength of the shielding component 100 but also improves its shielding effect against electromagnetic interference. In one specific embodiment, the distance between the signal terminal 42 and the shielding component 100 ranges from 5mm to 20mm to ensure the stability and reliability of signal transmission.

[0038] In practical applications, the multifunctional combination device of this invention has a wide range of applications. For example, in the field of industrial automation, the device can achieve multiple functions, such as data acquisition, signal processing, and equipment control, by replacing different functional module groups 20. In the field of smart homes, the device can serve as a central controller, detecting environmental parameters through the sensor module 50 and realizing intelligent control of home appliances through the control module 30. Furthermore, due to the modular design of the device, users can flexibly adjust the configuration of the functional module groups 20 according to actual needs, thereby meeting the usage requirements in different scenarios.

[0039] In summary, this utility model's multifunctional combined device, through its rational structural design and modular layout, achieves efficient data or energy transmission along the first direction and dynamic signal switching. The coordinated operation of the various components within the device not only improves its overall performance but also enhances its flexibility and practicality. Furthermore, the introduction of shielding components 100 and sealing rings further improves the device's reliability and electromagnetic compatibility, enabling it to adapt to various complex working environments.
