Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of drone battery cooling technology, specifically to a direct-charging smart terminal drone battery cooling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of drone technology, drones have been widely used in many fields, such as aerial photography, surveying and mapping, and agricultural plant protection. The endurance of a drone largely depends on its battery performance. During drone flight, the battery generates a lot of heat due to continuous discharge. If heat cannot be dissipated in a timely and effective manner, the battery temperature will become too high, which will affect the battery's lifespan, charging and discharging performance, and the drone's flight safety.

[0003] In direct-charging smart terminals, drones can be charged directly after landing. At this time, the need for battery heat dissipation is more prominent. Existing drone battery heat dissipation devices often have problems such as low heat dissipation efficiency, complex structure, or poor compatibility with direct charging function. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a direct-charging intelligent terminal drone battery cooling mechanism to solve the problems of low heat dissipation efficiency, complex structure, or poor compatibility with direct charging function in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A direct-charging intelligent terminal drone battery cooling mechanism is installed inside the intelligent terminal, including a clamping and lifting platform, an industrial air conditioner, a right-side ventilation duct, and a left-side ventilation duct. The top of the clamping and lifting platform is used to place the drone, and a charging mechanism is installed inside. The industrial air conditioner is located on one side of the clamping and lifting platform and is used to generate cold air. The left-side and right-side ventilation ducts are both installed on the industrial air conditioner and bend to the left and right sides respectively, extending along the edge of the clamping and lifting platform to the left and right sides of the drone, for delivering cold air to the drone.

[0007] Optionally, a pipe fastener is installed at the air outlet of the industrial air conditioner. The pipe fastener is provided with a first air outlet and a second air outlet. The first air outlet is connected to the left ventilation duct, and the second air outlet is connected to the right ventilation duct.

[0008] Optionally, the pipe fastener has protrusions on both the left and right sides, the industrial air conditioner has a slot on its side for the protrusions to be inserted, and the pipe fastener is fixed to the industrial air conditioner with screws.

[0009] Optionally, both the left and right ventilation ducts are covered with insulation cotton, which is then fixed to the left and right ventilation ducts by insulation cotton fasteners.

[0010] Optionally, both the left and right ventilation ducts are equipped with duct fans, and the rotation axis of the duct fan is aligned with the direction of the cold air movement path.

[0011] Optionally, an air outlet fan is installed at the outlet of both the left and right ventilation ducts away from the industrial air conditioner, and the rotation axis of the air outlet fan is consistent with the direction of the cold air movement path at the outlet.

[0012] Optionally, both the outlet fan and the duct fan are DC fans with a fixed rotation speed; a third outlet is also provided on the duct fixture, and the third outlet is connected to the outside.

[0013] Optionally, it also includes a control system, which is electrically connected to both the clamping and lifting platform and the industrial air conditioner. The clamping and lifting platform reads the actual battery temperature of the UAV and adjusts the cooling parameters of the industrial air conditioner.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The cool air blown out by the industrial air conditioner is transported to the left and right sides of the drone through the right and left ventilation ducts, providing forced air cooling. This quickly and effectively reduces the temperature of the drone's battery during direct charging, extending battery life and ensuring stable battery performance. Furthermore, the entire device is embedded within the smart terminal, exhibiting good structural compatibility with direct-charging smart terminals, occupying minimal additional space, and facilitating installation and maintenance.

[0016] 2. Since both the duct fan and the outlet fan are DC fans with a fixed wind speed, when the industrial air conditioner's wind speed is greater than the fan's wind speed, the outlet exhausts air outwards, and vice versa, thus achieving pressure regulation of the entire mechanism.

The terms "first," "second," "third," etc., in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to and do not have any special meaning in terms of technical connotation (e.g., they should not be construed as an emphasis on importance or order). Expressions such as "comprising," "including," and "having" also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).

[0025] The terms used in this application, such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and "middle," are generally used to indicate the general relative positional relationship for the purpose of intuitive understanding by referring to the accompanying drawings, and are not absolute limitations on the positional relationship in the actual product.

[0026] A direct-charging intelligent terminal drone battery cooling mechanism, referring to Figures 1-3 Located inside the smart terminal, it includes a clamping lift platform 5, an industrial air conditioner 1, a right-side ventilation duct 3, and a left-side ventilation duct 4. The top of the clamping lift platform 5 is used to hold the drone 2, and it has an internal charging mechanism that can directly charge the drone 2's battery. Since the clamping lift platform 5 is existing technology for smart terminals, its structure will not be described in detail.

[0027] An industrial air conditioner 1 is installed on one side of the clamping lifting platform 5 and is used to generate cold air. An air outlet is provided on the side of the industrial air conditioner 1 facing the clamping lifting platform 5, and a pipe fixing component 102 is installed at the corresponding position. Specifically, the pipe fixing component 102 has protrusions on both sides, and the side of the industrial air conditioner 1 has a slot 101 for the protrusions to be inserted. The pipe fixing component 102 is initially fixed to the industrial air conditioner 1 by the protrusions and the slot 101. Finally, screws are used to secure the two together.

[0028] A first air outlet 102a, a second air outlet 102b, and a third air outlet 102c are provided on the duct fixture 102, and all three air outlets are connected to the air outlets on the industrial air conditioner 1. Among them, the first air outlet 102a is connected to the left ventilation duct 4, and the second air outlet 102b is connected to the right ventilation duct 3. The left ventilation duct 4 and the right ventilation duct 3 are used to transport the cold air produced by the industrial air conditioner 1.

[0029] Specifically, the left ventilation duct 4 and the right ventilation duct 3 bend to the left and right sides respectively, extending along the edge of the clamping lifting platform 5 to the left and right sides of the drone 2, in order to deliver cold air to the drone 2.

[0030] Duct fans 403 are installed inside both the left-side ventilation duct 4 and the right-side ventilation duct 3, and outlet fans 405 are installed at the outlets furthest from the industrial air conditioner 1. The rotation axes of the duct fans 403 and the outlet fans 405 are aligned with the direction of the cold air movement at their respective installation locations. Correspondingly, the duct fans 403 are fixed inside the left-side ventilation duct 4 and the right-side ventilation duct 3 by fan mounting plates 404. With the assistance of the duct fans 403 and the outlet fans 405, cold air is forced to the drone 2 to cool its battery.

[0031] Furthermore, both the left ventilation duct 4 and the right ventilation duct 3 are covered with thermal insulation cotton 402. The thermal insulation cotton 402 is fixed to the left ventilation duct 4 and the right ventilation duct 3 by thermal insulation cotton fasteners 401 to maintain the temperature inside the left ventilation duct 4 and the right ventilation duct 3.

[0032] In this embodiment, both the outlet fan 405 and the duct fan 403 are DC fans with fixed rotation speeds. When the airflow speed of the industrial air conditioner 1 is greater than the fan speed, the third outlet 102c of the industrial air conditioner 1 exhausts air outward; conversely, it draws air inward, thereby maintaining the pressure balance of the mechanism. The third outlet 102c must be connected to the external environment.

[0033] The direct-charging smart terminal drone battery cooling mechanism also includes a control system. The control system is electrically connected to the clamping lifting platform 5 and the industrial air conditioner 1. When the smart terminal directly charges the drone 2 battery, the control system reads the actual battery temperature of the drone 2 through the clamping lifting platform 5 and adjusts the cooling parameters of the industrial air conditioner 1 to automatically cool the drone 2 battery.

[0034] In addition, if the ambient temperature is extremely low, the battery of the drone 2 can be protected by controlling the industrial air conditioner 1 to blow hot air.

[0035] The combination of these two technologies enables intelligent control of the heat dissipation process. By reading the actual battery temperature through the control system, the heat dissipation intensity is automatically adjusted, improving energy utilization and reducing operating noise.

[0036] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
