Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection drone technology, specifically a power inspection drone with easily replaceable modules. Background Technology

[0002] In power maintenance, drones are often used to inspect cables. However, traditional power inspection drones lack effective protection for their cameras, making them susceptible to damage. In addition, the cameras need to be disassembled and replaced during daily use, and existing technologies cannot solve the problem of both quick disassembly and camera protection. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a power inspection drone with easily replaceable modules, solving the problem that existing power inspection drones struggle to simultaneously ensure robust protection of the camera and facilitate quick disassembly and replacement during daily use.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A power line inspection drone with easily replaceable modules includes a base shell fixedly connected to the main body of the drone. The base shell has multiple right-angled blocks inside its cavity, with a camera positioned between each block. A pad is placed between the upper cavity wall of the base shell and the camera to limit the camera's vertical displacement. An opening groove is provided on the side wall of the base shell, within which a cover is slidably connected. An elastic buckle is fixedly installed on the lower end face of the base shell. The cover has an insertion groove that engages with the elastic buckle. After the cover is fully closed on the base shell, the elastic buckle engages with the L-shaped groove. A transparent window is provided on the cover to cooperate with the camera.

[0006] Preferably, a plurality of connecting seats are fixedly connected to the base shell, and the connecting seats are provided with threaded holes. When the base shell is installed with the drone body, the connecting seats are threadedly connected by screws passing through the frame of the drone body. A plurality of sleeves are fixedly provided on the pad, and the sleeves are respectively movably connected to the connecting seats.

[0007] Preferably, the base shell has symmetrically arranged limiting pins, and the shell cover has an L-shaped groove that mates with the limiting pins. When the shell cover slides continuously along the direction of the base shell, the limiting pin slides continuously along the L-shaped groove until it is inserted and limited.

[0008] Preferably, one end of the cover is provided with a warped portion, so that when the cover is pulled out along the length direction of the cover, the limiting pin gradually disengages from the L-shaped groove.

[0009] Preferably, the lower end face of the base shell is provided with multiple support feet, and the base shell has an opening that matches the elastic buckle.

[0010] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] This power inspection drone, which facilitates module replacement, uses right-angle blocks and pads to stably mount the camera, ensuring its stability during use. The base shell effectively protects the camera inside. Elastic latches and insertion slots allow the shell to be quickly opened by releasing the latches, facilitating rapid installation or removal of the camera. Attached Figure Description

[0018] 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.

[0019] A power line inspection drone with easily replaceable modules includes a base shell 2 fixedly connected to the drone body 1. The base shell 2 has multiple right-angled blocks 4 inside its cavity, with a camera 6 positioned between each right-angled block 4. A pad 5 is provided between the upper cavity wall of the base shell 2 and the camera 6 to limit the vertical displacement of the camera 6. An opening groove 9 is provided on the side wall of the base shell 2, and a shell cover 11 is slidably connected within the opening groove 9. An elastic buckle 10 is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the base shell 2. The shell cover 11 has an insertion groove 12 that mates with the elastic buckle 10. After the shell cover 11 is fully closed and placed on the base shell 2, the elastic buckle 10 is snapped into place with the L-shaped groove 13. A transparent window 14 that mates with the camera 6 is provided on the shell cover 11.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the above technical solution, the right-angle block 4 and the pad 5 are used to stably install the camera 6. When used with the power inspection drone, the stability of the camera 6 installation can be guaranteed. At the same time, the transparent window 11 arranged on the base shell 2 and the shell cover can effectively protect the camera 6 inside the base shell while ensuring the stable use of the camera. The elastic buckle 10 and the insertion slot 12 can release the restriction on the shell cover 11 through the elastic buckle 10, thereby quickly sliding open the entire base shell 2, so as to quickly install or remove the camera 6.

[0021] Multiple connecting seats 3 are fixedly connected to the base shell 2. Each connecting seat 3 has threaded holes. When the base shell 2 is installed with the drone body, screws pass through the drone body's frame and are threadedly connected to the connecting seats 3. Multiple sleeves are fixedly installed on the pad 5, and each sleeve is movably connected to one of the connecting seats 3. For example... Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in this technical solution, the connecting seat 3 facilitates the installation of the base shell 2 on the main body 1 of the drone, and also facilitates the quick connection and installation of the pad 5 with the sleeve on the pad 5. Furthermore, the pad 5, in conjunction with the right-angle blocks 4, allows for the quick and precise positioning of the camera 6. To provide shock absorption and facilitate installation, the pad 5 is made of an elastic material, such as silicone or shock-absorbing rubber. This allows personnel to easily compress the pad 5 to position the camera 6 between the right-angle blocks 4 after installation. Simultaneously, the pad 5 provides shock absorption and cushioning for the camera 6 when the drone lands.

[0022] Limiting pins 7 are symmetrically arranged on the base shell 2, and an L-shaped groove 13 that mates with the limiting pins 7 is provided on the shell cover 11. When the shell cover 11 slides continuously along the direction of the base shell 2, the limiting pins 7 slide continuously along the L-shaped groove 13 until they are inserted to the limit position. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in this technical solution, the limiting pin 7 and the L-shaped slot 13 can further limit the position of the cover 11, ensuring the stability of the cover 11 after installation.

[0023] One end of the cover 11 has a warped portion. When the cover 11 is pulled out along its length, the limiting pin 7 gradually disengages from the L-shaped slot 13. Figure 4 As shown, in this technical solution, the warped portion facilitates the opening of the housing 11 by personnel to facilitate the subsequent replacement of the camera 6; at the same time, the insertion limit between the limiting pin 7 and the L-shaped slot 13 is easily released when subjected to external force in the vertical direction, which can ensure quick opening of the base housing 2 in daily life and improve the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0024] The lower end face of the base shell 2 is provided with multiple support feet 8, and the base shell 2 has an opening that matches the elastic buckle 10. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the support feet 8 ensure that the drone body can be stably supported and limited after landing. In this technical solution, the elastic buckle 10 and the base shell 2 are integrally formed by engineering plastic. A support is arranged between the end face of the elastic buckle 10 and the base shell 2. When a person presses one end of the elastic buckle 10, the other end of the elastic buckle 10 moves accordingly and disengages from the insertion slot 12, releasing the limitation on the shell cover 11.
