Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transport drone technology, and in particular to a short-distance small-item logistics transport drone. Background Technology
[0002] Transport drones are an intelligent logistics solution that uses unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for automated cargo delivery. Through GPS navigation and obstacle avoidance systems, they can autonomously and accurately transport packages, medical supplies, and other goods directly from warehouses to designated destinations, effectively avoiding ground traffic congestion and significantly improving delivery efficiency. They are particularly suitable for emergency transportation in remote areas and "last mile" express delivery in cities, and are an important component of future smart city logistics networks.
[0003] Currently, most unloading devices for transport drones on the market use either high-altitude direct dropping or manual unpacking and dumping. These designs cannot achieve automated unloading of goods in practical applications, resulting in low operational efficiency, increased human intervention costs, and increased risk of cargo damage. This severely limits the practicality of drones and their adaptability to various application scenarios. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a short-range, small-parcel logistics transport drone to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a short-range small-item logistics transportation drone.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A short-range small-item logistics transportation drone includes a base, a reset component is provided inside the base, and an unloading component is provided inside the reset component; The unloading assembly includes a rotating drum and a worm gear. A sliding groove is provided on the outer wall of the rotating drum, and a rotating groove connected to the sliding groove is also provided on the outer wall of the rotating drum. A rotating rod is installed at the top of the rotating drum by bolts. A baffle is provided at one end of the worm gear adjacent to it, and a worm is provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod.
[0006] Furthermore, the unloading assembly also includes a slide plate that is slidably connected to the interior of the rotating drum, with a slider at one end of the slide plate sliding into the interior of the chute.
[0007] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes a motion groove, which is formed inside the base, and the rotating cylinder is provided with the interior of the motion groove.
[0008] Furthermore, a lifting rod is bolted to the bottom outer wall of the slide plate and is located inside the rotating drum, with one end of the lifting rod extending to the outside of the rotating drum.
[0009] Furthermore, a base plate is bolted to the bottom end of the lifting rod, and a spring is provided on the top outer wall of the base plate and sleeved onto the outer wall of the lifting rod.
[0010] Furthermore, a storage seat is bolted to the top outer wall of the base, and a door is hinged to the slotted front outer wall of the storage seat.
[0011] Furthermore, a door lock is provided on the outer wall of the box door, a latch block is provided on the front outer wall of the storage base near the door lock, and an organism is installed on the top of the storage base by bolts.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. With the set unloading components, after the drone arrives at the designated location and lands, the device drives the rotating drum to perform opening and closing actions through the coordinated action of the sliding plate, rotating chute and slide chute, and the worm gear structure drives the baffle to perform opening and closing actions. This design can realize smooth and automatic material dumping, which not only avoids the damage to the cargo that may be caused by high-altitude throwing, but also significantly improves the automation and reliability of the unloading process.
[0013] 2. Through the reset component, the spring drives the lifting rod and the slide plate to move through its elasticity. The slide plate, with the help of the sliding groove and the rotating groove, can automatically drive the baffle to perform the closing action after the drone finishes unloading and takes off. This mechanism effectively realizes the autonomous closing of the baffle after unloading, which significantly improves the automation level and practical performance of the device.

The unloading assembly 5 includes a rotating drum 51 and a worm gear 57. A groove 52 is formed on the outer wall of the rotating drum 51, and a groove 53 communicating with the groove 52 is also formed on the outer wall of the rotating drum 51. A rotating rod 54 is bolted to the top of the rotating drum 51. A baffle 55 is provided at one end adjacent to the worm gear 57. A worm 56 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod 54. The rotating rod 54 is movably mounted inside the motion groove 61 via bearings, and the baffle 55 is located inside the base 1. When the rotating drum 51 rotates, it drives the rotating rod 54 to rotate. The rotating rod 54 rotates inside the motion groove 61, and when the rotating rod 54 rotates, it drives the worm 56 to rotate. The meshing between the worm 56 and the worm 57 allows the worm gear 57 to... The synchronous drive baffle 55 rotates downwards around the axis of worm gear 57. Worm gear 57 is movably mounted inside the base 1 using bearings. The self-locking feature between worm gear 57 and worm 56 ensures that only worm 56 can drive worm gear 57 to rotate, while worm gear 57 cannot drive worm 56 to rotate. The unloading assembly 5 also includes a slide plate 58, which is slidably connected to the inside of the rotating drum 51. The slider at one end of the slide plate 58 slides into the inside of the slide groove 52.

[0022] The following are several preferred embodiments or application embodiments to help those skilled in the art better understand the technical content of this utility model and the technical contributions made by this utility model compared with the prior art: Example 1 A short-range small-item logistics transport drone includes a base 1, with a reset assembly 6 inside the base 1, and an unloading assembly 5 inside the reset assembly 6. The unloading assembly 5 includes a rotating drum 51 and a worm gear 56. A groove 52 is formed on the outer wall of the rotating drum 51, and a rotating groove 53 communicating with the groove 52 is also formed on the outer wall of the rotating drum 51. A rotating rod 54 is bolted to the top of the rotating drum 51. A baffle 55 is provided at one end adjacent to the worm gear 56. A worm wheel 57 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod 54. The rotating rod 54 is movably mounted inside the moving groove 61 by bearings and also serves as a baffle. Plate 55 is set inside base 1. When the rotating cylinder 51 rotates, the rotating cylinder 51 will drive the rotating rod 54 to rotate. The rotating rod 54 will rotate inside the motion groove 61. When the rotating rod 54 rotates, it will drive the worm wheel 57 to rotate. By utilizing the meshing between the worm wheel 57 and the worm 56, the worm 56 can synchronously drive the baffle 55 to rotate in the downward direction with the axis of the worm 56 as the origin. Furthermore, by utilizing the self-locking feature between the worm wheel 57 and the worm 56, only the worm 56 can drive the worm wheel 57 to rotate, while the worm wheel 57 cannot drive the worm 56 to rotate.
[0023] The unloading assembly 5 includes a slide plate 58, which is slidably connected to the inside of the rotating drum 51. A slider at one end of the slide plate 58 slides into the inside of a groove 52. When the slide plate 58 rises or falls, it utilizes the sliding connection between the slider on its outer wall and the groove 52 to allow movement. The rotating drum 51 can rotate using the sliding connection between the rotating groove 53 and the groove 52. The reset assembly 6 includes a motion groove 61, which is located inside the base 1. The rotating drum 51 has the motion groove 61 inside, providing a mounting position for the rotating drum 51. A lifting rod 62, located inside the rotating drum 51, is bolted to the bottom outer wall of the slide plate 58. One end of the lifting rod 62 extends to the outside of the rotating drum 51. When the lifting rod 62 moves, because it is fixedly connected to the slide plate 58, it synchronously drives the slide plate 58 to move. A base plate 63 is bolted to the bottom of the lifting rod 62. A spring 64 is fitted onto the outer wall of the top of the base plate 63 and is sleeved onto the outer wall of the lifting rod 62. When the base plate 63 moves, it can use the fixed connection with the lifting rod 62 to allow the lifting rod 62 to drive the slide plate 58 to move. When the base plate 63 moves, it will compress the spring 64. This setting allows the baffle 55 to be reset. A storage seat 3 is bolted to the top outer wall of the base 1. A door 4 is hinged to the slot on the front outer wall of the storage seat 3. The storage seat 3 provides a storage location for goods, and the door 4 can seal the storage seat 3. A door lock 7 is provided on the outer wall of the door 4. A latch block is provided on the front outer wall of the storage seat 3 near the door lock 7. An aircraft body 2 is bolted to the top of the storage seat 3. The aircraft body 2 is the body of the drone, and the door lock 7 can lock the door 4.
[0024] Working principle: During use, when the body 2 transports the drone to the designated flat position and descends, the base plate 63 will contact the ground. At this time, the base plate 63 will drive the lifting rod 62 to rise. When the lifting rod 62 rises, the base plate 63 will compress the spring 64. When the lifting rod 62 rises, it will drive the slide plate 58 to rise. The slide plate 58 will move by utilizing the sliding connection between the slider on its outer wall and the slide groove 52. When the slide plate 58 moves, the sliding connection between the slide groove 52 and the rotating groove 53 will allow the slide plate 58 to move. The sliding connection with the slider drives the rotating rod 54 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear 56 to rotate. The worm gear 56, through its sliding connection with the worm wheel 57, causes the worm wheel 57 to drive the baffle 55 to rotate, allowing the goods to fall out of the storage seat 3. When the machine body 2 is raised, the spring 64 can effectively reset using its characteristics, thereby allowing the baffle 55 to reset and provide a position for the next storage of goods. Furthermore, the door lock 7 can lock the box door 4, which can block and seal the goods inside the storage seat 3, preventing the goods from falling out.
[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
