Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically to an intelligent inspection UAV. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing demand for automation in the construction industry, intelligent inspection drones have gradually replaced traditional manual inspection methods and become the core equipment for efficient inspection due to their advantages of flexibility, wide coverage, and no need for on-site personnel. Existing intelligent inspection drones are usually equipped with inspection modules such as high-definition cameras, infrared sensors, and gas detectors. Through remote control or autonomous flight control systems, they can achieve image acquisition, data monitoring, and abnormal signal feedback of target areas, significantly improving inspection efficiency and operational safety.

[0003] Traditional intelligent inspection drones are mostly composed of structures such as fuselage, arms, and wings, and are equipped with multiple inspection modules. However, intelligent inspection drones lack some external protective structures. When the drone is conducting inspections indoors, due to the complex geographical environment, it is prone to collision damage, which can easily damage other indoor equipment, thereby increasing the overall maintenance cost. To address these issues, we propose an intelligent inspection drone. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides an intelligent inspection drone, including a drone body 1, an arm 11 fixedly installed on the drone body 1, a wing 12 provided at the end of the arm 11 away from the drone body 1, a protective member 2 provided on the outer side of the drone body 1, a counterweight 3 provided at the top of the protective member 2, a support member 4 provided at the bottom of the protective member 2, and an inspection module 5 installed on the drone body 1. The protective component 2 includes an outer protective ring 21. An inner mounting frame 22 is integrally formed on the inner side of the outer protective ring 21. The inner mounting frame 22 is fixedly installed at the end of the arm 11 away from the drone body 1. A plurality of evenly distributed top protective frames 23 are fixedly installed at the top of the outer protective ring 21. A connecting plate 231 is fixedly installed at the top of the plurality of top protective frames 23. A plurality of evenly distributed bottom protective frames 24 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer protective ring 21. The bottom of the plurality of bottom protective frames 24 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drone body 1 by screws. By setting up a plurality of top protective frames 23 and a plurality of bottom protective frames 24, the external space of the intelligent inspection drone is protected, preventing the intelligent inspection drone from being damaged by impact when flying and inspecting indoors, reducing damage to other indoor equipment, and thus reducing the overall maintenance cost.

[0022] An auxiliary frame 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer protective ring 21. An auxiliary camera module 61 and a lighting module 62 are fixedly installed on the auxiliary frame 6. The auxiliary camera module 61 is used for auxiliary photography, and the lighting module 62 is used for auxiliary lighting, thereby improving the functionality of the entire intelligent inspection drone.

[0023] The support component 4 includes multiple support base frames 41 arranged in a ring array. A support base pad 411 is fixedly installed on one side of each support base frame 41. A rotating shaft 42 is fixedly installed on the top of each support base frame 41. The rotating shaft 42 is rotatably mounted on a corresponding bottom protective frame 24. A worm gear 43 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 42. A worm 44 is meshed with the bottom of the worm gear 43. The worm 44 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the corresponding bottom protective frame 24. A drive motor 45 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bottom protective frame 24 near the worm 44. The drive end of the drive motor 45 is fixedly installed on the shaft end of the worm 44. By turning on the drive motor 45, the worm 44 is driven to rotate, thereby controlling the support base frame 41 to rotate downwards. This allows multiple support base frames 41 to support the entire intelligent inspection drone.

[0024] A protective cover 46 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bottom protective frame 24 near the drive motor 45, and the worm gear 43, worm 44 and drive motor 45 are located inside the protective cover 46.

[0025] The counterweight component 3 includes a connecting screw 31, which is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 231. A counterweight bracket 32 ​​is movably sleeved on the outer side of the connecting screw 31. A fixing nut 311 is threaded on the top of the connecting screw 31 to fix the direction of the counterweight bracket 32. The bottom end of the fixing nut 311 contacts the top end of the counterweight bracket 32. A counterweight groove 321 is provided on the counterweight bracket 32. A counterweight block 33 is movably engaged in the counterweight groove 321. The counterweight bracket 32 ​​can rotate on the connecting screw 31 to adjust the direction of the counterweight block 33. The counterweight block 33 can slide in the counterweight groove 321 to adjust its position. This allows for flexible adjustment of the direction and position of the counterweight block 33 according to the balance adjustment requirements of the intelligent inspection drone. A positioning nut 331 is threaded on the top of the counterweight block 33 to fix its position.

[0026] Working principle: When in use, first, according to the balance adjustment requirements of the intelligent inspection drone, rotate the counterweight bracket 32, adjust the direction of the counterweight block 33, and fix it with the fixing nut 311. Then slide the counterweight block 33 to adjust its position, and fix it with the positioning nut 331 until the balance adjustment of the entire intelligent inspection drone is completed. The drone carries multiple inspection modules 5 to conduct intelligent inspections in complex indoor environments. Among them, the auxiliary camera module 61 provides auxiliary video recording, and the lighting module 62 provides auxiliary lighting, thereby improving the functionality of the entire intelligent inspection drone. Among them, by setting up multiple top protective frames 23 and multiple bottom protective frames 24, the external space of the intelligent inspection drone is protected, preventing the intelligent inspection drone from being damaged by impact when flying and inspecting indoors, reducing damage to other indoor equipment, and thus reducing the overall maintenance cost. When the drone needs to land after use, the drive motor 45 is turned on to drive the worm gear 44 to rotate the worm wheel 43 and the rotating shaft 42, thereby controlling the support base 41 to rotate downwards, so that multiple support bases 41 can support the entire intelligent inspection drone.

[0027] 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.
