[0053] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation
[0054] The technical solutions of the present invention 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 invention, and not all embodiments. Well-known modules, units, and their connections, links, communications, or operations are not shown or described in detail. Furthermore, the described features, architectures, or functions can be combined in any way in one or more embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the various embodiments described below are only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0055] Aerial hoisting equipment is widely used in various fields such as geological monitoring, public safety, power grids, and landscaping. For example, it is used for the deployment of geological testing equipment, the setting up of roadblocks, the maintenance of power facilities, and the planting of saplings.
[0056] Aerial hoisting requires the deployment controller of a drone-based non-contact monitoring device to secure and release the hoisted object. The device has a suspension assembly at its bottom to suspend the object and ensure accurate placement. However, in existing drone-based non-contact monitoring device deployment controllers, the suspension assembly at the bottom can sometimes be accidentally opened under external force during mission execution, which may cause the object to fail to be accurately placed at the intended target location.
[0057] To address the aforementioned issues, this application places a support rod between the base and the top cover, and positions the connector for the drone on the first side of the support rod, i.e., on the top cover. A housing is then formed to enclose the base and top cover circumferentially, with the housing sealed to both, creating a receiving chamber. The hanging rod, wheel mechanism, and drive motor are housed within this chamber, which is a sealed chamber. A first and second clamping protrusion are positioned opposite each other on the lower side of the base, i.e., on the side furthest from the support rod. The hanging rod... The rod passes through the base and is positioned within the first clamping protrusion. When the rod passes through the first clamping protrusion and enters the second clamping protrusion, it is in a locked state, allowing it to hang items. A drive motor and a grooved wheel mechanism are then provided, sequentially connecting the drive motor, the grooved wheel mechanism, and the rod. The grooved wheel mechanism, driven by the drive motor, moves the rod to change position, causing it to enter or leave the locked state. When the rod is in the locked state, it hangs the item; when it leaves the locked state, it releases the item. Because the grooved wheel mechanism is unidirectional, it only operates under the drive of the drive motor.
[0058] This application provides a solution that enables convenient connection between the entire drone non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller and the drone, which can better adapt to deployment tasks in harsh outdoor environments. Furthermore, due to the unidirectional nature of the grooved wheel mechanism, it only works under the drive of the motor to maintain the stability of the boom. It will not be opened under external force, which can significantly improve the accuracy and safety of drone point deployment.

[0060] A strut 30 is positioned between the base 10 and the top cover 20; a connector 21 is located on the outer side of the base 10 and is used for connection with the drone; a housing 40 is arranged circumferentially around the base 10, and the housing is sealed to both the base and the top cover, wherein the housing 40 has opposing upper and lower sides, the lower side of the housing 40 is sealed to the upper side of the base 10, and the upper side of the housing 40 is sealed to the top cover 20; a first L-shaped support 11 is fixed to the inner side of the base 10, the first... L-shaped support 11 is provided on one side of support rod 30; first clamping protrusion 50 is provided on the side of base 10 away from support rod 30; a second L-shaped support 511 is provided inside the first clamping protrusion 50, and the second L-shaped support 511 is fixedly connected to the lower side of base 10; second clamping protrusion 60 is provided on the side of base 10 away from support rod 30, and is provided opposite to the first clamping protrusion 50; hanging rod 70 passes through base 10 and is provided in the first clamping protrusion 50, when hanging rod When the hanging rod 70 passes through the first clamping protrusion 50 and enters the second clamping protrusion 60, the hanging rod 70 is in a locked state; the Geneva mechanism 80 is drivenly connected to the hanging rod 70; the motor shaft of the drive motor 90 is drivenly connected to the Geneva mechanism 80; the hanging rod includes a first connecting rod 72, a lever 73 and a second connecting rod 71, the first connecting rod 72 is connected to the first end of the lever 73, the middle part of the lever 73 is rotatably connected to the second L-shaped support 511, and the second end of the lever 73 is connected to the Geneva through the second connecting rod 71. The mechanism 80 is connected; the Geneva mechanism 80 is used to drive the second connecting rod to change position under the drive of the drive motor 90, so that the hanging rod 70 enters or leaves the locked state; the base 10, the housing 40 and the top cover 20 are sequentially sealed and connected to form a receiving chamber, in which the hanging rod 70, the Geneva mechanism 80 and the drive motor 90 are housed; the second L-shaped support 511 is provided on the periphery of the hanging rod 70, and the second L-shaped support 511 is rotatably connected to the lever 73.
[0061] In the deployment controller of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment, the strut 30 provides support between the base 10 and the top cover 20, ensuring the overall stability of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller. The upper and lower sides of the housing 40 are sealed to the top cover 20 and the base 10 respectively, ensuring the airtightness of the accommodating chamber, which is crucial for the protection of the electronic components and mechanical parts inside the device. The sequential sealed connection of the base 10, housing 40, and top cover 20 not only enhances the structural stability but also facilitates the maintenance and replacement of internal components. The first clamping protrusion 50 and the second clamping protrusion 60 provide reliable support points for the hanging rod 70, ensuring the stability and reliability of the hanging rod 70 under different conditions. The transmission connection between the Geneva mechanism 80 and the hanging rod 70, and the transmission connection between the motor shaft of the drive motor 90 and the Geneva mechanism 80, together constitute the power transmission system of the device, enabling the hanging rod 70 to be precisely adjusted in position as needed. The design of the Geneva mechanism 80 enables the drive motor 90 to efficiently control the locking and unlocking of the hanging rod 70, thereby achieving the precise deployment function of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller. Furthermore, the connector 21 allows the UAV to easily suspend the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller in the air, enabling targeted aerial deployment of items. The connector 21 is designed with UAV compatibility in mind, ensuring the stability and safety of the device during aerial deployment. In addition, the connector 21's structural design allows for quick assembly and disassembly, facilitating use on different UAVs and improving the device's versatility and ease of operation. Through this design, the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller can adapt to various deployment tasks and environments, meeting diverse practical needs.
[0062] By providing the first L-shaped support 11, not only are the drive motor 90 and the Geneva mechanism 80 provided with additional support, but the second L-shaped support 511 also provides additional support points for the lever 73 of the hanging rod 70, allowing the lever 73 to act like a lever and enhancing the stability of the structure.
[0063] In the hanging rod 70, the movable connection between the first connecting rod 71 and the grooved wheel mechanism 80 ensures that the hanging rod 70 can be flexibly adjusted in position according to the rotation of the grooved wheel 83. The horizontal setting of the second connecting rod 72 and its cooperation with the first clamping protrusion 50 provide stable support for the hanging rod 70, ensuring the stability and reliability of the hanging rod 70 in different states. The lever 73 passes through the base 10 and connects the first connecting rod 71 and the second connecting rod 72 vertically, so that the first connecting rod 71 and the second connecting rod 72 can form a rotating structure, which provides a guarantee for the stable hanging of items.
[0064] In this embodiment, the support rod 30 is positioned between the base 10 and the top cover 20, and the connector 21 for connecting the drone is positioned on the first side of the support rod 30, i.e., on the top cover 20. This enables convenient connection between the drone non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller and the drone. The housing 40 is arranged circumferentially around the base 10 and the top cover 20, and is sealed to both the base 10 and the top cover 20 to form a receiving chamber. The hanging rod 70, the grooved wheel mechanism 80, and the drive motor 90 are housed within this receiving chamber, which is a sealed chamber, well-suited for deployment tasks in harsh outdoor environments. A first clamping protrusion 50 and a second clamping protrusion 60 are positioned opposite each other on the lower side of the base 10, i.e., on the side away from the support rod 30. The hanging rod 70... The rod 70 passes through the base 10 and is positioned in the first clamping protrusion 50. When the rod 70 passes through the first clamping protrusion 50 and enters the second clamping protrusion 60, the rod 70 is in a locked state, which means it can be used to hang items. A drive motor 90 and a grooved wheel mechanism 80 are provided, and the drive motor 90, the grooved wheel mechanism 80 and the rod 70 are sequentially connected for transmission. The grooved wheel mechanism 80 is used to drive the rod 70 to change its position under the drive of the drive motor 90, so that the rod 70 enters or leaves the locked state. When the rod 70 enters the locked state, the item is hung, and when the rod 70 leaves the locked state, the item is released. Since the grooved wheel mechanism 80 is unidirectional, it only works under the drive of the drive motor 90 to maintain the stability of the rod 70. It will not be opened under external force, which can improve the accuracy and safety of UAV point-to-point delivery.
[0065] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 as well as Figure 12 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figures 1 to 3 In the embodiment shown, the Geneva mechanism 80 includes a dial 81, a Geneva wheel 83, and a cylindrical pin 85, wherein:
[0066] The dial 81 is connected to the drive motor 90 and has a locking arc 82. The grooved wheel 83 has a radial groove 84 and is connected to the hanging rod 70 on the side away from the radial groove 84. The cylindrical pin 85 is located on the side of the dial 81 with the locking arc 82 and is slidably connected to the radial groove 84 at the end away from the dial 81. The dial 81 rotates forward or backward under the drive of the drive motor 90 to drive the grooved wheel 83 to rotate forward or backward, thereby driving the hanging rod 70 to enter or leave the locked state.
[0067] In the Geneva mechanism 80, the locking arc 82 of the dial 81 is designed to lock the Geneva wheel 83 in a specific position, preventing it from rotating accidentally without the drive motor 90. The transmission connection between the radial groove 84 of the Geneva wheel 83 and the hanging rod 70 ensures that the hanging rod 70 can be precisely adjusted in position according to the rotation of the dial 81. The sliding connection between the cylindrical pin 85 and the radial groove 84 allows the Geneva wheel 83 to rotate smoothly under the drive of the dial 81, and also ensures the stability and reliability of the Geneva wheel 83 in the non-working state. This Geneva mechanism 80 design not only improves the accuracy of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller, but also enhances its adaptability and durability in complex environments. Through the coordinated work of the dial 81, the Geneva wheel 83, and the cylindrical pin 85, the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller can achieve precise control of the hanging rod 70, thereby ensuring that items can be accurately deployed to the predetermined location. In addition, the unidirectional design of the Geneva mechanism 80 ensures that the hanging rod 70 will not be accidentally opened due to external force when there is no drive motor 90, thus ensuring the safety of the drone's targeted deployment.
[0068] Optionally, refer to Figure 5 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, a reduction gear set 91 is provided between the output shaft of the drive motor 90 and the grooved wheel 83. The reduction gear set 91 is fixedly mounted on the first L-shaped support 11. The grooved wheel 83 is rotatably connected to the reduction gear set 91 and is also rotatably connected to the first L-shaped support 11.
[0069] The first L-shaped support 11 provides additional support for the drive motor 90 and the Geneva mechanism 80. Furthermore, the reduction gear set 91 reduces the speed of the drive motor 90, increases torque output, and thus improves the control accuracy and response speed of the Geneva mechanism 80. The use of the reduction gear set 91 allows the drive motor 90 to achieve precise control of the Geneva 83 with relatively low power and torque, which is significant for extending the drone's endurance and improving the efficiency of targeted deployment. In addition, the compact design of the reduction gear set 91 helps save space, making the entire device lighter and easier for the drone to carry and operate.
[0070] Optionally, refer to Figure 6 as well as Figure 12 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figure 4 The embodiment shown further includes a battery 12 in the drone non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller, wherein:
[0071] Battery 12 is located on base 10 and is perpendicular to the rotation plane of groove wheel 83.
[0072] Battery 12, such as a lithium battery, can be a rechargeable battery to provide power to drive motor 90. The battery 12's placement ensures the drone's non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller can operate normally without an external power source, improving the device's independence and flexibility. The battery 12's perpendicular orientation to the rotation plane of the wheel 83 helps optimize the device's center of gravity distribution, resulting in better stability during aerial deployment. Furthermore, the rechargeable nature of the battery 12 allows for device reuse, reducing long-term operating costs and contributing to environmental protection. The battery 12's capacity and charging speed can be selected and optimized according to actual usage needs to meet the endurance requirements of different deployment missions.
[0073] Optionally, refer to Figure 7 as well as Figure 12 In another embodiment of this utility model, a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is provided, based on the above... Figures 1 to 3 In the embodiment shown, when the hanging rod 70 is in the locked state, one end of the second connecting rod 72 passes through the first clamping protrusion 50 and connects to the second clamping protrusion 60, so that the hanging rod 70 forms a locking space between the first clamping protrusion and the second clamping protrusion.
[0074] When the hanging rod 70 is in the locked state, one end of the second connecting rod 72 can pass through the first clamping protrusion 50 and connect with the second clamping protrusion 60, ensuring that the hanging rod 70 can stably and reliably form a locking space, thereby keeping the hanging rod in the locked state and ensuring the stable hanging of items. This design of the hanging rod 70 not only improves the stability and reliability of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller, but also enables the device to maintain better balance when deployed in the air, thereby ensuring the accuracy and safety of the deployment.
[0075] Optionally, the second link 72 is provided with a spring 74 at the end near the lever 73, wherein:
[0076] The spring 74 abuts against the first clamping protrusion 50 at the end away from the lever 73 and pushes the first clamping protrusion 50 toward the second clamping protrusion 60 so that the hanging rod 70 is in the locked state.
[0077] The function of spring 74 is to provide a continuous elastic force to the boom 70, ensuring that the boom 70 remains in the locked state when no external force is applied. When the drive motor 90 drives the pulley mechanism 80 to disengage the boom 70 from the locked state, the elastic force of spring 74 helps the boom 70 quickly return to the locked position, thus achieving rapid and stable deployment. The inclusion of spring 74 not only improves the response speed of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller but also enhances its adaptability in complex environments, ensuring the reliability and safety of the deployment process. Furthermore, the use of spring 74 reduces the power requirement of the drive motor 90, helping to reduce energy consumption and extend the UAV's flight time. The size and material of spring 74 can be selected according to actual usage conditions to meet the stability and response speed requirements of different deployment tasks.
[0078] Optionally, refer to Figure 8 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figures 1 to 7 The embodiment shown further includes an auxiliary component 51 in the deployment controller for the drone non-contact monitoring equipment, wherein:
[0079] The auxiliary component 51 is located inside the first clamping protrusion 50 and on the periphery of the hanging rod 70. The auxiliary component 51 is used to assist the hanging rod 70 in maintaining its motion trajectory and reducing resistance when the drive motor 90 drives the Geneva mechanism 80, so that the hanging rod 70 can smoothly switch between the locked state and the open state.
[0080] The auxiliary component 51 may include auxiliary elements such as sliding bearings, guide wheels, or ball bearings. These auxiliary elements reduce friction and resistance of the hanging rod 70 during movement, ensuring smoothness and stability when switching between locked and open states. The auxiliary component 51 makes the entire UAV non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller operate more smoothly, extends the service life of the device, and reduces maintenance costs. By rationally designing the structure and materials of the auxiliary component 51, the durability and reliability of the device can be greatly improved, ensuring good working condition in various complex environments.
[0081] Optionally, refer to Figure 8 as well as Figure 12 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, the auxiliary assembly 51 includes a plurality of driven wheels 512, wherein:
[0082] Multiple driven wheels 512 are movably disposed within the second L-shaped support 511 and are rotatably connected to the circumference of the hanging rod 70. When the hanging rod 70 is driven by the grooved wheel mechanism 80, the driven wheels 512 rotate in the direction of movement of the hanging rod 70 to assist the hanging rod 70 in switching between the locked and open states.
[0083] The multiple driven wheels 512 effectively reduce friction and resistance during the movement of the boom 70, improving the smoothness of switching. This design not only enhances the reliability of the drone non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller but also ensures the successful completion of deployment tasks in various complex environments. It enables the drone non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller to achieve rapid, accurate, and stable item deployment, meeting the drone's need for targeted deployment in different environments.
[0084] Optionally, refer to Figure 9 as well as Figure 12 Another embodiment of this utility model provides a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), based on the above... Figures 1 to 7 In the embodiment shown, the top cover 20 is provided with a switch 22, wherein:
[0085] Switch 22 is used to manually control the drive motor 90 to drive the Geneva mechanism 80 to switch the hanging rod 70 from the locked state to the open state.
[0086] Switch 22 can be in the form of a button or knob, allowing the operator to quickly turn the device on or off as needed. The switch 22 on the top cover 20 provides users with a convenient way to directly control the deployment controller of the drone's non-contact monitoring equipment, enabling rapid response in emergencies or specific operational needs. Furthermore, the switch 22 increases the flexibility of the drone's non-contact monitoring equipment deployment controller, allowing users to manually control the deployment process without relying on the drone's control system. The introduction of switch 22 not only improves the device's applicability but also enhances operational safety, ensuring that users can accurately control the timing of deployment in complex or unpredictable environments.
[0087] Optionally, refer to Figures 10 to 12 In another embodiment of this utility model, a deployment controller for a non-contact monitoring device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is provided, based on the above... Figures 1 to 7 In the embodiment shown, the first clamping protrusion 50 is provided with a first locking hole 52, the second clamping protrusion 60 is provided with a second locking hole 61 opposite to the first locking hole 52, the end of the second connecting rod 72 passes through the first locking hole 52 and the second locking hole 61 in sequence to form a locking space between the first clamping protrusion 50 and the second clamping protrusion 60, and the lever 73 is provided inside the first clamping protrusion 50.
[0088] The design of the first locking hole 52 and the second locking hole 61 enables the hanging rod 70 to achieve a stable locked state when passing through the first locking hole 52 and the second locking hole 61. This locking mechanism ensures that when the hanging rod 70 is in the locked state, even under the action of external force, the second connecting rod 72 will not easily disengage from the locking hole, thus ensuring the safety of the deployed object during transportation and deployment. The precise cooperation of the first locking hole 52 and the second locking hole 61 greatly improves the reliability of the deployment controller of the UAV non-contact monitoring equipment.
