Description

Technical Field

[0002] Automatic target drones, as crucial equipment for shooting training and competitions, are widely used in military training, police training, sports competitions, and civilian shooting ranges. Traditional target drone support structures often employ simple fixed brackets or rotating mechanisms based on foundations, revealing numerous technical shortcomings in practical use. Existing fixed support structures cannot achieve lateral adjustment of the target plate, limiting the diversity of training subjects. Some rotatable support structures, due to unreasonable design, have severely insufficient load-bearing capacity, making them prone to structural failure when supporting large-sized targets or subjected to projectile impact. The positioning accuracy of existing rotating mechanisms is generally poor, failing to achieve precise angle positioning and affecting the consistency and repeatability of training results. Complex operation is another prominent issue; existing equipment often requires multiple people or specialized tools to complete angle adjustments, resulting in low efficiency in practical use. Poor stability manifests in the support structure's susceptibility to positional shifts under external disturbances such as wind loads and vibrations, affecting shooting accuracy. Existing support structures also suffer from high manufacturing costs, difficult maintenance, and poor adaptability, severely hindering the widespread application of automatic target drones. With the increasing demands and complexity of shooting training, there is an urgent need to develop an automatic target machine side-rotation support structure that is strong in load-bearing capacity, high in positioning accuracy, easy to operate, and stable, in order to meet the technical requirements of modern shooting training.

The vertical section bears the weight load of the target plate, the horizontal section forms a cantilever beam load-bearing structure, the arc transition structure eliminates stress concentration and improves the overall strength, the flange structure enhances the connection strength with the main rotating shaft, the reasonable size configuration ensures the load-bearing capacity while achieving structural lightweighting, and the geometric characteristics of the L-shaped structure enable the target plate to perform side rotation movement within a larger radius of action.

[0012] Furthermore, the target plate fixing frame is a U-shaped steel frame structure, with the opening of the U-shaped frame facing the direction of the side rotation support arm; the two side walls of the target plate fixing frame are respectively connected to the two sides of the free end of the horizontal section of the side rotation support arm through hinge shafts; the hinge shaft is a stainless steel round shaft with a diameter of 20 mm to 30 mm, and the hinge shaft passes through the transverse through hole of the free end of the horizontal section of the side rotation support arm.

The cross-shaped protrusion evenly distributes the load transmitted by the shaft to the four directions of the base plate, which significantly improves the local bearing capacity of the base plate and reduces the stress concentration phenomenon around the through hole. The cross-shaped protrusion structure also plays a positioning and guiding role, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the shaft assembly installation.

[0021] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the spiral groove design on the outer surface of the main shaft creates an effective channel for lubricating oil storage and distribution. The spiral groove forms a spiral pumping effect during the rotation of the shaft, promoting the circulation of lubricating oil and ensuring sufficient lubrication of the bearing contact surface. The reasonable pitch design ensures the continuity and uniformity of the lubrication effect. The spiral groove also has a certain weight reduction effect, reducing the weight of the shaft while ensuring strength.

[0022] Furthermore, the number of reinforcing ribs is at least three, and the multiple reinforcing ribs are equidistantly distributed on the horizontal section of the side-rotation support arm.

[0023] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the equidistant distribution of at least three reinforcing ribs on the horizontal section of the side-turn support arm creates a uniform strength enhancement effect. The equidistant distribution ensures that the load-bearing capacity of each section of the cantilever beam is basically consistent, avoiding the occurrence of local weak links. The synergistic effect of multiple reinforcing ribs significantly improves the bending stiffness and load-bearing capacity of the entire support arm. The equidistant geometric layout also facilitates processing, manufacturing and quality control, improving the consistency and reliability of the product.

The vertical section of the side-rotation support arm is bolted to the upper end face of the main rotating shaft, and the horizontal section extends outward to form a cantilever beam structure. The target plate... The fixing frame is installed at the free end of the horizontal section of the side-rotation support arm. The target plate fixing frame is connected to the side-rotation support arm via a hinge shaft to support the target plate to swing around the horizontal axis. The rotation control mechanism includes a drive gear and a driven gear. The drive gear is fixed at the lower end of the main rotating shaft, and the driven gear meshes with the drive gear and drives the main rotating shaft to rotate via a motor. The base includes a base plate and support legs. The base plate is made of 10 mm thick steel plate, and support legs are welded to the four corners of the base plate. Each support leg is a triangular steel pipe truss structure, and the bottom of the support leg is provided with an adjusting foot pad to adjust the overall levelness. The bearing seat is fixed to the geometric center position below the base plate by bolts.
