[0002] With the rapid development of drone technology, drones are increasingly used in fields such as communication inspection, logistics transportation, and emergency rescue. In order to ensure the efficient operation and safe storage of drones, it is necessary to set up dedicated take-off and landing platforms in specific areas, especially in remote areas or complex terrain.

[0003] In the application of drone nesting systems in emergency management and forest fire prevention scenarios, in order to regularly inspect wildfire conditions, the nesting systems need to be deployed at mountain tops. At the same time, in order to ensure stable power, network, and security monitoring, the deployment method of sharing high-altitude iron tower base stations is adopted. Due to the high altitude, dense forests, and complex environment, the following problems have long existed:

[0004] 1. The drones in the nest are unable to take off normally due to long-term obstruction by weeds, branches and other objects;

[0005] 2. During periods of heavy rainfall in the flood season, water can easily accumulate and seep into the drone's nest, causing circuit malfunctions or abnormalities and preventing normal takeoff.

[0006] 3. When there are villages near the drone nest, long-term human interference (damage, theft) may cause drone nest malfunctions or safety hazards.

[0007] In conclusion, a drone take-off and landing platform based on a tower base station is needed. Utility Model Content

[0027] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a drone take-off and landing platform based on a tower base station includes a support frame 1, a base plate 5 on the support frame 1, on which the drone nest can be placed, a fence 2 on the base plate 5, an openable guardrail door 4 on the fence 2, a folding spring telescopic step ladder 6 on the rear side of the base plate 5, and a protective closing device 3 on the fence 2.

[0030] Furthermore, the support frame 1 can be made of Q235A high-strength steel.

[0031] Before implementing this device, firstly:

[0032] Now, an outdoor concrete site is being constructed. After the concrete has hardened, the workers will fix the support frame 1 to the concrete with bolts. Then, the workers will install the base plate 5 on the support frame 1. After the support frame 1 is installed, the fence 2 can be installed on the base plate 5. Then, the folding spring telescopic ladder 6 can be installed on the base plate 5 in sequence, and the guardrail gate 4 and closing device 3 can be installed on the fence 2 to complete the installation of this device.

[0033] In the above, the folding spring telescopic staircase 6 adopts the existing technology model HS-B-1 folding spring telescopic staircase 6.

[0034] In the above, the base plate 5 has a size of 2000mm*2000mm, the support frame 1 has a height of 2500mm, the machine nest is placed in the center of the base plate 5, and its support frame 1 adopts a diagonal brace design and has been treated with anti-corrosion to adapt to the corrosive climate in the high mountain environment.

[0035] In order to facilitate transportation and installation, the base plate 5 and the support frame 1 adopt a modular design, and each component can be prefabricated in the factory and quickly assembled on site.

[0036] Specifically, when using the folding spring telescopic step ladder 6, you need to unlock it with a key first and then pull the folding spring telescopic step ladder 6 to extend it. After the folding spring telescopic step ladder 6 is extended, the staff can move to the base plate 5 through the folding spring telescopic step ladder 6 to maintain the drone nest.

[0037] As described above, when it rains, rainwater will enter the closing device 3. At this time, the closing device 3 will receive information due to the accumulation of rainwater, and then the closing device 3 will close to prevent rainwater from continuously dripping into the drone nest, thus providing rain protection for the drone nest and improving the safety of the drone nest.

[0038] The folding spring telescopic step ladder 6 designed above requires a key to unlock and extend when in use, effectively preventing unauthorized personnel from entering. When not in use, it can be retracted to save space and facilitate the closure of the ground guardrail, improving safety during maintenance and operation.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] Based on the above embodiment one, in order to achieve the purpose of rain protection for the UAV nest by the closing device 3, please refer to... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The closing device 3 includes a support plate 39, which is installed on the front crossbar of the fence 2. A stepper motor 35 is provided under the support plate 39. The output end of the stepper motor 35 is provided with a transmission rod 36 through a coupling. A spur gear 37 for transmission is provided on the surface of the transmission rod 36. A rack 34 is provided on the front and rear sides of the upper part of the support plate 39. A slider 33 is provided on the crossbar of the fence 2. Two sliding shells 32 are provided on the slider 33. A closing door 31 is provided on the vertical surface of the rear side of the two sliding shells 32. A signal mechanism 38 is provided on the lower side of the support plate 39. The signal mechanism 38 transmits information to the stepper motor 35 through rainwater. A connecting plate 30 is provided under the rack 34 on the front side.

[0041] Furthermore, the spur gear 37 meshes with the two racks 34 respectively;

[0042] Furthermore, the closing door 31 on the right side is connected to the rack 34 on the rear side, and the sliding shell 32 on the left side is connected to the rack 34 on the front side through the connecting plate 30.

[0043] Furthermore, the signal mechanism 38 includes a circular shell 381, which is installed under the support plate 39. A pressure sensor 385 is provided on the bottom wall of the circular shell 381. A circular plate 382 is provided in the inner cavity of the circular shell 381. A push rod 384 for triggering the pressure sensor 385 is provided under the circular plate 382. A telescopic spring 383 is provided on the lower side of the circular plate 382 and the bottom wall of the circular shell 381.

[0044] Furthermore, the pressure sensor 385 can transmit signals to the stepper motor 35 via the push rod 384.

[0045] In the above scenario, when it rains, rainwater falls onto the support plate 39. A circular hole is located between the circular plate 382 and the support plate 39, with the circular plate 382 positioned below the hole. Rainwater falls onto the upper part of the circular plate 382, ​​and the weight of the rainwater causes it to slide downwards within the circular shell 381. As the circular plate 382 moves, it moves the push rod 384 downwards, causing it to contact the pressure sensor 385. Upon receiving this information, the pressure sensor 385 transmits it to the stepper motor 35, causing it to operate and operate. The transmission rod 35 drives the spur gear 37 to rotate. When the spur gear 37 rotates, it meshes with the two racks 34, causing the two racks 34 to move closer to each other. The front rack 34 drives the connected sliding shell 32 to slide to the right on the slider 33 through the connecting plate 30, so that the sliding shell 32 drives the closing door 31. The rear rack 34 drives the right sliding shell 32 and the closing door 31 to slide to the left, so that the two closing doors 31 slide closer to each other and close, preventing rainwater from getting on the drone nest and protecting the stability of the drone nest.

[0046] In the above, when the rain stops, the rainwater inside the circular shell 381 will slowly evaporate. At this time, the drone inside the nest is in standby mode and does not need to take off immediately. After the water evaporates, the telescopic spring 383 will release pressure, pushing the circular plate 382 to move the top rod 384 upward. When the pressure sensor 385 is disconnected from the top rod 384, the pressure sensor 385 will transmit information to the stepper motor 35, causing the stepper motor 35 to drive the closed door 31 to slide away from each other through the spur gear 37, rack 34 and sliding shell 32, so that the two closed doors 31 open.

[0047] The operation of the pressure sensor 385 transmitting information to the stepper motor 35, as described above, is a conventional design in the prior art and will not be elaborated further in this article.

[0048] It should be noted that the specific installation method, circuit connection method, and control method of the pressure sensor 385 and stepper motor 35 used in this utility model are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail here.

[0049] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
