Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, and more specifically, to a mounting structure for a UAV. Background Technology
[0002] The emergence of drone mounting structures was to allow drones to break through the limitations of "single flight" and achieve more practical functions. Early drones were mostly used for simple flight observation. As industry demands upgraded, people hoped that drones could carry equipment such as cameras, pesticide sprayers, and cargo to complete tasks such as aerial surveying, agricultural plant protection, and logistics transportation. However, the space inside the drone is limited, and different equipment has large differences in weight and size. Direct installation can easily lead to instability and flight safety. Therefore, specialized mounting structures have emerged. They can stably fix various equipment to the drone and adapt to the installation requirements of different equipment. This allows drones to expand into a wide range of application scenarios while maintaining flight stability, becoming a key component for drones to realize their practical value.
[0003] In existing technologies, when drones carry items, the connection between the mounting components and the fuselage is not secure. During flight, the components are prone to loosening or falling off due to vibration. It is difficult to quickly fix items of different sizes and weights, and the compatibility of the fixing structure is poor. The installation and disassembly of the mounting plate and support plate are cumbersome, making it inconvenient to inspect or replace the mounting components. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a mounting structure for a drone to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mounting structure for a drone, comprising a drone body, a connecting device and a support plate at the bottom of the drone body, a hook at the bottom of the support plate, a fixing device and a mounting plate on the support plate, a connecting rod at the bottom of the drone body, and a connecting shaft on the support plate. The connecting device includes a first slider and a second slider, the first slider being mounted on the connecting rod, the second slider being mounted on the connecting shaft, a snap-fit ring on the first slider, a snap-fit groove on the second slider cooperating with the snap-fit ring, snap-fit rods symmetrically arranged on the connecting shaft, and snap-fit holes cooperating with the snap-fit rods on the connecting rods.
[0006] The present invention is further configured such that the connecting shaft is provided with a movable groove, the movable groove is provided with a movable frame, and the locking rod is fixedly mounted on the movable frame, so as to facilitate the movement of the locking rod.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that movable sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the movable groove, and movable sliders that cooperate with the movable sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the movable frame to restrict the movement direction of the movable frame.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a movable sleeve is provided on the outer side of the connecting shaft, the movable sleeve is provided with a movable thread, and the movable slider is provided with a movable head that cooperates with the movable thread, so as to facilitate the movement of the movable slider and the movable frame.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing device includes a fixing seat, the fixing seat is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting plate, a fixing plate is hinged on the fixing seat, a fixing screw is rotatably provided on the fixing plate, a fixing block is threadedly connected to the fixing screw, and a fixing groove is provided on the support plate to cooperate with the fixing screw. The position of the fixing block is adjusted by the fixing screw, and the fixing block facilitates the connection between the mounting plate and the support plate.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing block is symmetrically provided with insertion rods, and the support plate is provided with insertion holes that cooperate with the insertion rods. The cooperation between the insertion rods and the insertion holes facilitates the stabilization of the position of the fixing block.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a fixing rod is provided on the fixing plate, and the fixing block is slidably connected to the fixing plate to restrict the movement direction of the fixing block.
[0012] The present invention is further provided with a protective railing around the circumference of the mounting plate to facilitate the protection of items on the mounting plate.
[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a mounting structure for a drone, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The device ensures the stability of the machine body and the mounting components through a double connection structure: When the connecting shaft and the connecting rod are connected, they are first initially positioned by the snap ring and the snap groove, and then the moving sleeve is rotated to drive the snap rod into the snap hole to achieve axial and radial double fixation. When disassembling, the sleeve can be rotated in the opposite direction to disengage from the snap. No complicated tools are required, which greatly improves the efficiency of disassembly and assembly and facilitates maintenance or replacement of the mounting plate.
[0014] 2. The fixing device enables flexible fixing and adaptation of the mounted items: After placing the item on the mounting plate, flip the fixing plate so that the fixing screw extends into the fixing groove. Turning the screw will drive the fixing block to rise and fall, and the insertion rod will accurately snap into the insertion hole, quickly completing the fixing of the item. This structure does not require frequent adjustments according to the size of the item and can adapt to different sizes of mounting needs (such as cameras, first-aid kits, and rescue supplies). At the same time, the hook can help fix the top of the item and further prevent shaking.
[0015] 3. Enhanced safety of mounting with optimized protection and center of gravity design: The protective railings around the mounting plate can prevent items from slipping or colliding, especially suitable for irregularly shaped items. The connecting device ensures that the support plate is coaxial with the fuselage through precise positioning, reducing the center of gravity shift after mounting. Together with the fixing device, the items are centered and fixed, ensuring the balance of the drone during flight and reducing the flight risk caused by unstable center of gravity.

The connecting shaft 6 has symmetrically arranged locking rods 11, and the connecting rod 5 has a locking groove 10 that mates with the locking ring 9. The locking rod 11 has a locking hole 12. The fixing device includes a fixing seat 20, which is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting plate 4. A fixing plate 21 is hinged on the fixing seat 20. A fixing screw 22 is rotatably provided on the fixing plate 21. A fixing block 23 is threadedly connected to the fixing screw 22. A fixing groove 24 that mates with the fixing screw 22 is provided on the support plate 2. An insertion rod 25 is symmetrically provided on the fixing block 23. An insertion hole 26 that mates with the insertion rod 25 is provided on the support plate 2. A fixing rod 27 is provided on the fixing plate 21. The fixing block 23 is slidably connected to the fixing plate 21. A guardrail 28 is provided around the circumference of the mounting plate 4.
[0022] In this embodiment, the item is placed on the mounting plate 4 and protected by the guardrail 28. The top of the item is hung on the hook 3. Then, the fixing plate 21 and the fixing screw 22 are flipped upward so that the fixing screw 22 extends into the fixing groove 24. Then, the fixing screw 22 is rotated so that the fixing screw 22 and the fixing block 23 rotate threadedly, so that the fixing block 23 moves vertically along the fixing slide bar, aligning the insertion rod 25 on the fixing block 23 with the insertion hole 26. The fixing screw 22 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the fixing block 23 moves downward, driving the insertion rod 25 to be inserted into the insertion hole 26, thereby connecting and fixing the mounting plate 4 and the support plate 2. Thus, the mounting plate 4 and the support plate 2 are connected. Through the connecting shaft 6, the connecting rod 5 and the connecting device, the support plate 2 is installed on the drone body 1, thereby achieving the mounting and fixing of the drone body 1.
[0023] Please see Figures 4-5As one embodiment of the connecting device: the connecting shaft 6 is provided with a movable groove 13, the movable groove 13 is provided with a movable frame 14, the snap-fit rod 11 is fixedly mounted on the movable frame 14, the movable groove 13 is provided with movable slide grooves 15 on both sides, the movable frame 14 is provided with movable sliders 16 that cooperate with the movable slide grooves 15 on both sides, the connecting shaft 6 is provided with a movable sleeve 17, the movable sleeve 17 is provided with a movable thread 18, and the movable slider 16 is provided with a movable head 19 that cooperates with the movable thread 18.
[0024] More specifically, when connecting the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5, the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5 are axially aligned so that the retaining ring 9 on the first slider 7 is horizontally aligned with the retaining groove 10 of the second slider 8. The connecting shaft 6 and the support plate 2 are then rotated to make the first slider 7 and the second slider 8 fully aligned. Subsequently, the support plate 2 is stabilized, and the moving sleeve 17 is rotated. The moving sleeve 17 rotates relative to the connecting shaft 6. Through the cooperation of the moving head 19 and the moving thread 18, the moving sleeve 17 drives the moving slider 16 along the moving groove 1. 5. Move the slider 16 to move the moving frame 14 and the locking rod 11 upward, so that the locking rod 11 extends into the locking hole 12, completing the connection and fixation of the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5, and then installing and fixing the support plate 2 and the mounting plate 4. When it is necessary to disassemble the connecting shaft 6 for maintenance, rotate the moving sleeve 17 in the opposite direction to move the moving frame 14 and the locking rod 11 downward. After the locking rod 11 disengages from the locking hole 12, the connecting shaft 6 can be disassembled by rotating it, which facilitates the disassembly of the support plate 2 and the mounting plate 4.
[0025] In summary, when using or operating the overall equipment: place the item on the mounting plate 4, protect the item with the guardrail 28, hang the top of the item on the hook 3, then flip the fixing plate 21 and fixing screw 22 upwards so that the fixing screw 22 extends into the fixing groove 24, then rotate the fixing screw 22 so that the fixing screw 22 and the fixing block 23 rotate threadedly, so that the fixing block 23 moves vertically along the fixing slide rod, aligning the insertion rod 25 on the fixing block 23 with the insertion hole 26, then rotate the fixing screw 22 in the opposite direction so that the fixing block 23 moves downwards, driving the insertion rod 25 to be inserted into the insertion hole 26, thereby connecting and fixing the mounting plate 4 and the support plate 2, and thus connecting the mounting plate 4 and the support plate 2. Through the connecting shaft 6, connecting rod 5 and connecting device, the support plate 2 is installed on the drone body 1, thereby achieving the mounting and fixing of the drone body 1.
[0026] When connecting the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5, axially align the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5 so that the retaining ring 9 on the first slider 7 is horizontally aligned with the retaining groove 10 on the second slider 8. Then rotate the connecting shaft 6 and the support plate 2 to make the first slider 7 and the second slider 8 fully aligned. Subsequently, stabilize the support plate 2 and rotate the moving sleeve 17. The moving sleeve 17 rotates relative to the connecting shaft 6. Through the cooperation of the moving head 19 and the moving thread 18, the moving sleeve 17 drives the moving slider 16 to move along the moving groove 15. The movable slider 16 moves the movable frame 14 and the locking rod 11 upward, so that the locking rod 11 extends into the locking hole 12, completing the connection and fixation of the connecting shaft 6 and the connecting rod 5, and then installing and fixing the support plate 2 and the mounting plate 4. When it is necessary to disassemble the connecting shaft 6 for maintenance, the movable sleeve 17 is rotated in the opposite direction, which moves the movable frame 14 and the locking rod 11 downward. After the locking rod 11 disengages from the locking hole 12, the connecting shaft 6 can be disassembled by rotating it, which facilitates the disassembly of the support plate 2 and the mounting plate 4.
