Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically a vehicle-mounted UAV take-off and landing platform. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle-mounted landing and securing platforms for rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have long been a hot topic in both military and civilian UAV applications. Using these platforms to mount UAVs allows for rapid battlefield reconnaissance and enables UAVs to take off freely and be secured after landing in civilian applications. To ensure flexible takeoff and landing and ease of use of vehicle-mounted platforms, research on UAV vehicle-mounted platforms primarily focuses on how to quickly and easily install the platform on a vehicle, how to quickly remove water accumulation on the platform, how to eliminate the impact of backflow air on UAV landing, and how to secure the UAV on a high-speed moving vehicle and how to flexibly deploy and release it during takeoff.

[0003] Some vehicle-mounted multi-rotor drones have conventionally designed landing gears that require manual adjustment and securing after the drone lands on the vehicle's roof landing platform. Before takeoff, the drone's securing devices must be manually unlocked to release it, which is quite troublesome.

[0004] This case arose from the aforementioned issues. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a vehicle-mounted drone take-off and landing platform, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a vehicle-mounted UAV take-off and landing platform, including a housing and a landing platform located in the center of the housing. The housing is equipped with a UAV centering positioning device, which includes two sets, left and right. Each set includes two L-shaped push plates and a driving component. The driving component can synchronously drive the two L-shaped push plates to move towards the center of the landing platform.

[0007] Preferably, the driving component includes an electric push rod, a fixed block, a slide rod, two sets of base plates, sliding sleeves, and guide rails. The slide rod is longitudinally arranged on the fixed block, and the two sliding sleeves are slidably adapted to the slide rod and respectively fixed to the two base plates. The two L-shaped push plates are respectively installed on the two base plates. The electric push rod is transversely arranged inside the housing, and its output end is connected to the fixed block. The two guide rails are respectively arranged along the two intersecting diagonals of the housing. The bottom of the two sets of base plates is respectively provided with sliders that are slidably adapted to the two guide rails.

[0008] Preferably, the bend of the L-shaped push plate is provided with an arc-shaped chamfer.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the housing is provided with a shielding device, which includes a roller, a crossbar, a lead screw, a nut threaded onto the lead screw, a guide rod, and a guide sleeve slidably sleeved onto the guide rod. The roller is rotatably disposed on one side of the upper opening of the housing, and a shielding curtain is wound around the roller. The outer end of the shielding curtain is connected to the crossbar. The lead screw and guide rod are disposed inside the housing along the length of the housing. The two ends of the crossbar are respectively connected to the nut and the guide sleeve. A motor for driving the lead screw is installed inside the housing.

[0015] This utility model embodiment provides a vehicle-mounted drone take-off and landing platform, such as Figure 1-3As shown, the device includes a housing 1 and a landing platform 2 located in the center of the housing 1. The housing 1 contains a drone centering device, which consists of two sets, left and right. Each set includes two L-shaped push plates 3 and a drive component. The drive component synchronously moves the two L-shaped push plates 3 towards the center of the landing platform 2. The two sets of four L-shaped push plates 3 form a frame. The drone can be placed anywhere on the landing platform 2, and as the four L-shaped push plates 3 move towards the center of the landing platform 2, the drone is pushed to the exact center position without manual adjustment. Furthermore, the four L-shaped push plates 3 effectively secure the drone, preventing it from shifting. Before takeoff, the drone can be unlocked simply by removing the four L-shaped push plates 3 outwards.

[0016] The driving components include an electric push rod 8, a fixed block 5, a slide rod 6, two sets of base plates 4, sliding sleeves 7, and guide rails 9. The slide rod 6 is longitudinally mounted on the fixed block 5. The two sliding sleeves 7 are slidably fitted onto the slide rod 6 and are respectively fixed onto the two base plates 4. The two L-shaped push plates 3 are respectively mounted on the two base plates 4. The electric push rod 8 is transversely mounted inside the housing 1, and its output end is connected to the fixed block 5. The two guide rails 9 are respectively arranged along the two intersecting diagonals of the housing 1. The bottom of the two sets of base plates 4 is respectively provided with sliders that are slidably fitted into the two guide rails 9.

[0017] When the electric push rod 8 pushes the fixed block 5 to move laterally, the base plate 4 is restricted by the guide rail 9 and moves along the direction of the guide rail 9. At the same time, the two sliding sleeves 7 slide towards each other, so that the four L-shaped push plates 3 move synchronously towards the center of the landing platform 2.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, the bend of the L-shaped push plate 3 is set with an arc-shaped chamfer.

[0019] To protect the drone from wind and rain, a shielding device is installed on the top of the housing 1. This device includes a roller 10, a crossbar 12, a lead screw 14, a nut 15 threaded onto the lead screw 14, a guide rod 17, and a guide sleeve 18 slidably fitted onto the guide rod 17. The two ends of the roller 10 are rotatably mounted on one side of the upper opening of the housing 1 via bearing seats. A shielding curtain 11 is wound around the roller 10, with its inner end fixed to the roller 10 and its outer end connected to the crossbar 12. The lead screw 14 and guide rod 17 are arranged inside the housing 1 along its length. The two ends of the lead screw 14 are rotatably mounted on the housing 1 via bearing seats, and the two ends of the guide rod 17 are fixed to the housing 1 via mounting seats. The two ends of the crossbar 12 are connected to the nut 15 and the guide sleeve 18, respectively. A motor 16 is installed inside the housing 1 to drive the lead screw 14. The motor 16 controls the lateral movement of the crossbar 12, thereby pulling out the shielding curtain 11.

[0020] To facilitate the automatic retraction of the blind curtain 11, a spiral spring box 13 is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft of the roller 10. The spiral spring box 13 is a commercially available product, operating on the same principle as a spring. It has a rotating shaft at its center, around which a spiral spring is wound. The rotating shaft is coaxially connected to the roller 10. When the roller 10 unwinds the blind curtain 11, the spiral spring on the rotating shaft tightens to create tension. When the crossbar 12 retracts, causing the blind curtain 11 to lose tension, the spiral spring releases the tension, causing the roller 10 to rotate in the opposite direction and rewind the blind curtain 11.

[0021] A ring-shaped water channel 19 is provided on the inner ring of the tank body 1, and a drain outlet 20 connected to the ring-shaped water channel 19 is provided on the outside of the tank body 1. The ring-shaped water channel 19 corresponds to the edge of the shielding curtain 11. Water flowing down from the shielding curtain 11 will enter the ring-shaped water channel 19 and flow out from the drain outlet 20, thus preventing a large amount of water from entering the tank body 1.

[0022] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
