Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically to an UAV optoelectronic pod installation device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the installation of electro-optical pods for large drones is mostly carried out manually and using mounting brackets or vehicles. For lighter drones with higher fuselages, the pods can be installed manually, but this still requires the cooperation of multiple people. Some drones have lower fuselages and less operating space, making it difficult to install heavier pods using only manual lifting methods. This results in poor human-machine interaction and can easily damage the aircraft or the pod.

[0003] Existing technologies use brackets for installation, but the installation process often requires adjustments such as rotation. Therefore, a drone optoelectronic pod installation device was designed to address the aforementioned technical issues. Utility Model Content

[0008] Working Principle: Since the installation of the optoelectronic pod often requires multiple people, resulting in low installation efficiency and high difficulty, this utility model was designed. To address safety concerns, a placement frame is incorporated. The optoelectronic pod is placed on a placement plate within the frame. Positioning on the placement plate allows for better installation. The pod's left and right positions can be adjusted via horizontal and vertical tracks. To adjust the angle, the pod is moved, and its angle is adjusted via a universal joint. It also adjusts its height according to the drone's altitude to match the drone's position. Rotation is achieved by turning a rotating disc to adjust the direction.

[0009] Preferably, the horizontal and vertical tracks are arranged perpendicularly, and each of the placement frames corresponding to the horizontal and vertical tracks is provided with a moving rod assembly. The moving rod assembly passes through the placement frame and is connected to the placement plate. The moving rod assembly is used to control the placement plate to move on the moving track assembly, so that it can be moved from the outside, while making it more stable and avoiding problems such as movement due to force during installation.

[0010] Preferably, the movable rod assembly includes a movable rod and a connecting plate. One end of the connecting plate is connected to the movable rod and the other end is connected to the placement plate. The movable rod is a threaded rod, and a rotating handle is provided at the end of the movable rod, making it more convenient to use.

[0011] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a lifting cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, the base plate is provided with lifting buckles at both ends, so that the present invention can be lifted and used for more application scenarios.

[0013] Preferably, each side of the placement frame is provided with a support column, which is connected to the rotating disk, making the placement frame more stable.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] Please see Figures 1-3This utility model discloses an installation device for a drone optoelectronic pod, comprising a base plate 1, a placement frame 2 on the base plate 1, a lifting mechanism 3 at the bottom of the base plate 1, a rotating disk 4 connecting the placement frame 2 and the base plate 1, a placement plate 5 inside the placement frame 2, and a moving track assembly 6 inside the placement frame 2, with the placement plate 5 positioned on the upper end of the moving track assembly 6. The placement plate 5 is connected to the moving track assembly 6 via a universal joint structure 7, and the position of the placement plate 5 is adjusted via the moving track assembly 6. In specific implementation, the rotating disk 4 is an electric rotating disk 4, which is driven to rotate by a motor.

[0025] Furthermore, specifically as follows Figure 3 As shown, the moving track assembly 6 includes a horizontal track 601 and a vertical track 602. The horizontal track 601 is located above the vertical track 602. The top of the vertical track 602 is provided with a slide rail 603. The bottom of the horizontal track 601 is provided with a slider 604 that slides in conjunction with the slide rail 603. The top of the horizontal track 601 is provided with a slide rail 605. The bottom of the placement plate 5 is provided with a track block 606 that slides in conjunction with the slide rail 605. In a specific embodiment, if a positional deviation is found during installation, the photoelectric pod can be directly dragged. The photoelectric pod moves left and right and forward and backward via the horizontal track 601 and the vertical track 602, thereby making fine adjustments to its position.

[0026] In another embodiment, the horizontal track 601 and the vertical track 602 are arranged vertically. Each of the placement frames 2 corresponding to the horizontal track 601 and the vertical track 602 is provided with a set of moving rod assemblies 8. The moving rod assemblies 8 pass through the placement frames 2 and are connected to the placement plate 5. The moving rod assemblies 8 are used to control the movement of the placement plate 5 on the moving track assembly 6, so that it can be moved from the outside, while making the stability higher and avoiding movement problems caused by force during the installation process.

[0027] In another embodiment, the movable rod assembly 8 includes a movable rod 801 and a connecting plate 802. One end of the connecting plate 802 is movably connected to the movable rod 801, and the other end is connected to the placement plate 5. The movable rod 801 is a threaded rod. When the threaded rod rotates and moves, the connecting plate 802 does not rotate but moves with the threaded rod. The tail of the movable rod 801 is provided with a rotating handle 803. In actual use, when it is necessary to adjust the photoelectric pod, or when it is necessary to adjust the forward and backward position, the corresponding movable rod assembly 8 on the vertical track 602 is adjusted, and then the position is adjusted by moving forward or backward. Rotating the handle 803 causes the placement plate 5 to move forward or backward, thereby moving the photoelectric pod back and forth. When the left and right position needs to be adjusted, the corresponding moving rod assembly 8 on the horizontal track 601 is adjusted. By rotating the handle 803 in the forward or reverse direction, the placement plate 5 is moved left or right, thereby moving the photoelectric pod left or right. The position of the placement plate 5 can be more easily fixed by adjusting the threaded rod. At the same time, the threaded rod makes the adjustment position more precise, and the rotating handle 803 makes it more convenient to use.

[0028] In another embodiment, the lifting mechanism 3 includes a lifting cylinder.

[0029] In another embodiment, the base plate 1 is provided with lifting buckles 9 at both ends, so that the present invention can be lifted and used for more application scenarios.

[0030] In another embodiment, each side of the placement frame 2 is provided with a support column 201, which is connected to the rotating disk 4, so that the placement frame 2 can be more stable.

[0031] Usage: Since the installation of the photoelectric pod often requires multiple people, resulting in low installation efficiency and high difficulty, this utility model was designed. To address safety concerns, a placement frame 2 is included. The photoelectric pod is placed on the placement plate 5 within the placement frame 2. Position adjustment is possible when placing it on the placement plate 5 for better installation. The photoelectric pod's left and right positions can be adjusted via the horizontal rail 601 and vertical rail 602. When the angle of the photoelectric pod needs adjustment, it is moved, and the angle is adjusted via a universal joint. Simultaneously, it is raised and lowered according to the drone's height to match the drone's position. For large drones where the height is insufficient for the lifting cylinder, this utility model can be directly hoisted for installation. When the direction of the photoelectric pod needs adjustment, the rotating disk 4 is driven by a motor to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the photoelectric pod.

[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention.
