Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically to an agricultural UAV capable of clearing locusts. Background Technology

[0002] Locusts, as highly destructive agricultural pests, have long posed a serious challenge to global agriculture due to their high frequency of outbreaks, wide range of damage, and significant losses. Locusts possess strong reproductive and migratory capabilities, and under suitable environmental conditions, their populations can explode in a short period. They often move in large swarms, devouring crops wherever they go and causing devastating damage to agricultural production.

[0003] Currently, chemical pesticides remain one of the main methods for controlling locust plagues. Chemical pesticides have advantages such as rapid effectiveness and a broad insecticidal spectrum, enabling them to control locust populations in a short period. However, the long-term and extensive use of chemical pesticides has brought about many serious problems. On the one hand, chemical pesticides pollute the environment; pesticide residues enter the soil, water sources, and air, disrupting the ecological balance and harming the survival of other beneficial organisms. On the other hand, chemical pesticide residues can also be passed through the food chain, posing a potential threat to human health; long-term consumption of agricultural products containing pesticide residues may cause various diseases. Furthermore, under the selective pressure of chemical pesticides, locusts are prone to developing resistance, leading to a continuous increase in pesticide dosage while the control effect gradually declines, creating a vicious cycle. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an agricultural drone capable of clearing locusts, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an agricultural drone for clearing locusts, comprising a fuselage, control boxes fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the fuselage, and mounting motherboards fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the fuselage, a winding motor fixedly installed on one side of one of the mounting motherboards, a winding roller fixedly installed at the output end of the winding motor, a sticky net fixedly connected to the outer side of the winding roller, and a counterweight rod fixedly installed at the end of the sticky net away from the winding roller.

[0006] Preferably, two rolling rollers are rotatably mounted on opposite sides of the two mounting main boards, and a transmission gear is fixedly mounted on one end of each of the two rolling rollers. The outer sides of the transmission gears mesh with each other, and the adhesive net is located between the two rolling rollers.

[0007] Preferably, a protective frame is fixedly installed on one side of one of the mounting motherboards, the protective frame covering the outside of the two transmission gears, and a rolling motor is fixedly installed on the side of the protective frame away from the mounting motherboard, the output end of the rolling motor being fixedly connected to one side of one of the transmission gears.

[0008] Preferably, an auxiliary mounting plate is fixedly mounted on one side of each of the two mounting main boards, and a striking rod is rotatably mounted on the opposite side of the two auxiliary mounting plates. A striking protrusion is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the striking rod, and a striking motor is fixedly mounted on one side of one of the auxiliary mounting plates. The output end of the striking motor is fixedly connected to one end of the striking rod.

[0009] Preferably, a plurality of mounting rods are fixedly installed on the outer side of the fuselage, and a drive motor is fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the plurality of mounting rods, and a rotor is fixedly installed at the output end of each drive motor.

[0010] Preferably, support legs are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the machine body.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the forward rotation of the output end of the set winding motor drives the winding roller to rotate in the forward direction, thereby releasing the sticky net. Under the action of the counterweight rod, the sticky net will be suspended in the air in a vertical plane. When locusts touch the sticky net, they will be bound by the sticky net, thereby capturing the locusts. By utilizing the advantages of physical locust control, the pollution of the environment by chemical pesticides is avoided, and no harmful chemical substances are left in the environment. This is more beneficial to the ecological environment, biodiversity and human health. Furthermore, since physical locust control does not rely on chemical pesticides, it reduces the possibility of locusts developing resistance and improves the control effect.

[0012] In addition, when a large number of locusts are captured by the sticky net, the winding motor can be started in reverse, which will drive the winding roller to rotate in the opposite direction and wind up the sticky net. At this time, the crushing motor can be started. The output end of the crushing motor can drive the transmission gear to rotate, which will drive the two crushing rollers to rotate and crush the locusts on the surface of the sticky net, crushing the locusts to achieve physical locust control and green locust control, which reflects scientific locust control and green locust control.

[0013] In addition, after all the locusts have been crushed, the winding motor is restarted in the forward direction, driving the winding roller to rotate forward and releasing the sticky net again. The striking motor can also be started, and the output end of the striking motor can drive the striking rod to rotate, thereby driving the striking protrusion to rotate, thus striking and vibrating the sticky net, causing the locust fragments remaining on the surface of the sticky net to fall to the ground. This not only achieves the purpose of cleaning, but also applies fertilizer to the land. Attached Figure Description

[0019] 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.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an agricultural drone for clearing locusts, including a fuselage 1, control boxes 2 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the fuselage 1, mounting motherboards 12 fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the fuselage 1, a winding motor 13 fixedly installed on one side of one of the mounting motherboards 12, a winding roller 10 fixedly installed at the output end of the winding motor 13, a sticky net 3 fixedly connected to the outside of the winding roller 10, a counterweight rod 4 fixedly installed at the end of the sticky net 3 away from the winding roller 10, multiple mounting rods 7 fixedly installed on the outside of the fuselage 1, a drive motor 6 fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the multiple mounting rods 7, a propeller 5 fixedly installed at the output end of each drive motor 6, and support legs 8 fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the fuselage 1.

[0021] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows: First, the drive motor 6 is started by the cooperation of the external controller and the control box 2, which drives the rotor 5 to rotate, thereby causing the fuselage 1 to take off. After the fuselage 1 takes off to a certain height, the winding motor 13 is started. The output end of the winding motor 13 rotates in the forward direction, driving the winding roller 10 to rotate in the forward direction, thereby releasing the sticky net 3. Under the action of the counterweight rod 4, the sticky net 3 will be suspended in the air in a vertical plane. When locusts touch the sticky net 3, they will be bound by the sticky net 3, thereby capturing the locusts. By utilizing the advantages of physical locust control, the pollution of the environment by chemical pesticides is avoided, and no harmful chemical substances are left in the environment. This is more beneficial to the ecological environment, biodiversity and human health. Furthermore, since physical locust control does not rely on chemical pesticides, it reduces the possibility of locusts developing resistance and improves the control effect.

[0022] In another implementation scheme, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, two rolling rollers 11 are rotatably mounted on opposite sides of two mounting main boards 12. A transmission gear 19 is fixedly mounted on one end of each rolling roller 11. The outer sides of the transmission gears 19 mesh with each other. The adhesive net 3 is located between the two rolling rollers 11. A protective frame 16 is fixedly mounted on one side of one of the mounting main boards 12. The protective frame 16 covers the outer side of the two transmission gears 19. A rolling motor 15 is fixedly mounted on the side of the protective frame 16 away from the mounting main boards 12. The output end of the rolling motor 15 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the transmission gears 19.

[0023] When a large number of locusts are captured by the sticky net 3, the winding motor 13 can be started in reverse, thereby driving the winding roller 10 to rotate in the opposite direction and winding up the sticky net 3. At this time, the crushing motor 15 can be started. The output end of the crushing motor 15 can drive the transmission gear 19 to rotate, thereby driving the two crushing rollers 11 to rotate and crush the locusts on the surface of the sticky net 3, crushing the locusts to achieve physical locust control and green locust control, which reflects scientific locust control and green locust control.

[0024] In another implementation scheme, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, mounting auxiliary plates 18 are fixedly mounted on one side of each of the two mounting main plates 12. A striking rod 9 is rotatably mounted on the opposite side of the two mounting auxiliary plates 18. A striking protrusion 17 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the striking rod 9. A striking motor 14 is fixedly mounted on one side of one of the mounting auxiliary plates 18. The output end of the striking motor 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the striking rod 9.

[0025] After all the locusts have been crushed, the winding motor 13 is restarted in the forward direction, driving the winding roller 10 to rotate in the forward direction and releasing the sticky net 3 again. In addition, the striking motor 14 can be started. The output end of the striking motor 14 can drive the striking rod 9 to rotate, thereby driving the striking protrusion 17 to rotate, thus striking and vibrating the sticky net 3, causing the locust fragments remaining on the surface of the sticky net 3 to fall to the ground. This not only achieves the purpose of cleaning, but also applies fertilizer to the land.

[0026] Working Principle: First, the drive motor 6 is started by the cooperation of an external controller and control box 2, which drives the rotor 5 to rotate, thus causing the fuselage 1 to take off. After the fuselage 1 takes off to a certain height, the winding motor 13 is started. The output end of the winding motor 13 rotates in the forward direction, driving the winding roller 10 to rotate in the forward direction, thereby releasing the sticky net 3. Under the action of the counterweight rod 4, the sticky net 3 will be suspended in the air in a vertical plane. When locusts touch the sticky net 3, they will be bound by the sticky net 3, thus capturing the locusts. Utilizing the advantages of physical locust control, it avoids the pollution of the environment caused by chemical pesticides and does not leave harmful chemical substances in the environment. It is more beneficial to the ecological environment, biodiversity, and human health. Furthermore, since physical locust control does not rely on chemical pesticides, it reduces the possibility of locusts developing resistance and improves the control effect. When a large number of locusts are captured by the sticky net 3, the winding motor can be restarted. The winding motor 13 starts in reverse, causing the winding roller 10 to rotate in the opposite direction and winding up the sticky net 3. At this time, the crushing motor 15 can be started. The output end of the crushing motor 15 can drive the transmission gear 19 to rotate, thereby driving the two crushing rollers 11 to rotate and crush the locusts on the surface of the sticky net 3, crushing the locusts to achieve physical locust control and green locust control, which reflects scientific locust control and green locust control. After all the locusts have been crushed, the winding motor 13 is started again in the forward direction, driving the winding roller 10 to rotate in the forward direction and releasing the sticky net 3 again. In addition, the striking motor 14 can be started. The output end of the striking motor 14 can drive the striking rod 9 to rotate, thereby driving the striking protrusion 17 to rotate, thereby striking and vibrating the sticky net 3, causing the locust fragments remaining on the surface of the sticky net 3 to fall to the ground, which not only achieves the purpose of cleaning, but also applies fertilizer to the land.

[0027] 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.
