Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of hydrological forecasting, and specifically relates to a drone nest. Background Technology
[0002] In intelligent construction monitoring of overhead power lines, drones have become core equipment due to their advantages such as high-precision detection and efficient coverage. However, the impact of humid environments on their operation and maintenance needs to be considered more rigorously. Besides the increased humidity in the drone housing caused by water dripping from the drone after operations in rain or snow, the effects of humid weather and persistent high humidity are more insidious and lasting. In these scenarios, even when the drone is not operating, moisture in the air can seep through the gaps in the housing, leading to excessive internal humidity, accelerating condensation and corrosion of electronic components, increasing the rate of lithium battery capacity degradation, and significantly shortening the equipment's lifespan.
[0003] While current industry solutions such as multi-stage drainage and PTC heating dehumidification can address residual moisture from rain and snow, they suffer from high energy consumption and insufficient humidity control stability during periods of sustained high humidity, such as the humid spring season. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a drone nest to address the problem that the lifespan of drones and nests is easily affected by high humidity environments.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A drone nest, including a nest cover, characterized in that: an internal adsorption layer and a one-way permeable layer are sequentially formed on the inner wall of the nest cover, the internal adsorption layer is fixed to the top wall of the nest cover, and the surface of the internal adsorption layer is sprayed with a hydrophilic coating for water conduction. The unidirectional permeation layer includes a unidirectional permeation membrane and a polyester fiber support mesh, which are used to enable the unidirectional outward permeation of water vapor. The polyester fiber support mesh is fixed to the surface of the inner adsorption layer. The machine nest cover has several drainage holes on its periphery, and the outer surface of the drainage holes is coated with a hydrophobic coating.
[0006] Furthermore, the thickness of the nest cover gradually increases from the center to the sidewall to form a sloping surface, and a water absorption space is formed between the inner wall of the nest cover and the one-way permeable layer, with the water dispersing holes and the water absorption space aligned and connected.
[0007] Furthermore, water-guiding protrusions are fixed on both sides of the water-diffusing hole, an upper water-blocking plate is provided above the water-diffusing hole, and a lower water-blocking plate is provided below the water-diffusing hole. The upper water-blocking plate and the lower water-blocking plate are both located between the water-guiding protrusions on both sides.
[0008] Furthermore, both the upper and lower water-blocking plates are inclined downwards, and on the vertical projection plane, the outer edge of the upper water-blocking plate extends beyond the outer edge of the lower water-blocking plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the nest cover includes a first half and a second half, and magnetic silicone sealing strips are formed on the end faces of both the first half and the second half.
[0010] Furthermore, the internal adsorption layer includes several water-guiding ridges that extend from the center of the nest cover to the peripheral water-diffusing holes, and the axes of the water-guiding ridges are parallel to the slope axis formed inside the nest cover.
[0011] Furthermore, the sidewall of the water guide rib is recessed inward to form several water collection channels, which can be opened on any side of the water guide rib and are connected to the water dispersing hole.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a nest body, the nest cover is used to cover and protect the nest body, and the surface of the nest body has drying holes formed on the outermost ring, the drying holes being connected to the installation space of electronic components inside the nest body; The drying hole is also equipped with an exhaust fan for blowing air to one side of the machine nest cover.
[0013] Furthermore, the main body of the nest is provided with heat dissipation holes for heat dissipation during operation. The drying holes can be controlled to open and close, and when the drying holes are open, the heat dissipation holes can be partially closed.
[0014] Furthermore, the surface of the nest body is provided with a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor, and the outer surface of the nest cover is provided with a display screen for displaying the internal temperature and humidity.
[0015] The present invention can achieve the following beneficial effects: 1. This application, by setting a one-way permeation layer inside the drone nest cover, can unidirectionally gather water vapor inside the drone nest to the surface of the cover. The internal adsorption layer can gather and guide the water vapor passing through the one-way permeation layer, so that the water vapor gathered on the surface of the cover can be discharged through the drainage holes, thereby achieving the drying of the internal environment of the drone nest, reducing the humidity inside the drone nest, and providing a better dry and humidity environment for the storage of drones.
[0016] 2. Drying holes are opened on the periphery of the main body of the drone nest, which can allow the heat generated by the operation of the electronic components inside the nest to be introduced into the storage space of the drone covered by the nest cover, thereby drying the storage space of the drone. At the same time, the water vapor inside the nest cover is discharged through a one-way water vapor circulation route formed by the one-way permeation layer and the internal adsorption layer, according to a preset path.
[0017] 3. Setting water-guiding protrusions around the water-diffusing holes can prevent rainwater or water flow from the water-diffusing holes into the machine nest cover; An upper baffle plate is installed above the water diffuser hole, and a lower baffle plate is installed below it. On the one hand, this does not affect the normal discharge of internal water vapor, and on the other hand, it can block external water vapor and restrict external water vapor from entering the machine nest cover through the water diffuser hole.

[0020] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more complete description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application will be thorough and complete.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a drone nest includes a nest cover 1 and a nest body 2. The nest cover 1 is used to close and protect the nest body 2, providing a closed storage space for the drone. The nest cover 1 includes a first half 12 and a second half 13. Magnetic silicone sealing strips 8 are formed on the end faces of both the first half 12 and the second half 13. When the nest cover 1 is closed, the magnetic silicone sealing strips 8 can fit tightly, effectively preventing external moisture from seeping in through the seams of the nest cover 1, while ensuring the structural stability after closing. The thickness of the nest cover 1 gradually increases from the center to both sides, forming a sloping surface. This sloping design can use gravity to guide internal moisture to flow to the periphery, reducing moisture retention on the surface of the nest cover 1.
[0022] The machine cover 1 has several drainage holes 11 on its periphery. The outer surface of the drainage holes 11 is coated with a hydrophobic coating to reduce the adhesion of external rainwater at the opening of the drainage holes 11 and prevent rainwater from seeping into the holes due to surface tension. Water guiding protrusions 5 are fixed on both sides of the drainage holes 11 to prevent external rainwater from splashing in from both sides of the drainage holes 11. The outer wall of the nest cover 1 is also fixed with several upper water baffles 6 and lower water baffles 7. The upper water baffles 6 and lower water baffles 7 are both set between the water guiding protrusions 5 on both sides of the water diffuser hole 11. The upper water baffles 6 are located above the water diffuser hole 11, and the lower water baffles 7 are located below the water diffuser hole 11. The upper water baffles 6 and lower water baffles 7 are set inclined downwards. On the vertical projection plane, the outer edge of the upper water baffle 6 protrudes beyond the outer edge of the lower water baffle 7. This structure does not obstruct the water vapor inside the nest from being discharged from the water diffuser hole 11, and can further resist the rainwater splashed below or the water accumulated on the ground, cutting off the path of external water to enter the nest through the water diffuser hole 11.
[0023] The inner wall of the nest cover 1 is provided with an internal adsorption layer 4 and a one-way permeation layer 3 in sequence. A water absorption space is formed between the inner wall of the nest cover 1 and the one-way permeation layer 3. The water dispersing hole 11 is aligned and connected with the water absorption space. Water vapor through the one-way permeation membrane 31 can enter the water absorption space and finally be discharged outside the nest through the water dispersing hole 11.
[0024] Specifically, the inner adsorption layer 4 is fixed to the top wall of the machine nest cover 1, and the surface of the inner adsorption layer 4 is sprayed with a hydrophilic coating for water conduction. The hydrophilic coating can reduce the surface tension of water on the surface of the inner adsorption layer 4, and the water can change from water droplets into a uniform water film, making it easier for water to flow and be discharged along the surface of the inner adsorption layer 4.
[0025] The internal adsorption layer 4 includes several water-guiding ridges 41, which extend from the center of the nest cover 1 towards the water-diffusing holes 11 on the side wall, with the end of each water-guiding ridge 41 aligned with a water-diffusing hole 11. Furthermore, the axis of the water-guiding ridges 41 is parallel to the slope axis formed within the nest cover 1, ensuring that water vapor can converge towards the water-diffusing holes 11 along the guidance of the water-guiding ridges 41. The side walls of the water-guiding ridges 41 are recessed inward to form several water-collecting channels 411. These channels 411 can be located on either side of the water-guiding ridges 41 and are connected to the water-diffusing holes 11. The water-collecting channels 411 collect water vapor that has permeated to the surface of the nest cover 1, further improving the efficiency of water vapor flow towards the water-diffusing holes 11 and preventing water vapor accumulation on the surface of the internal adsorption layer 4.
[0026] One-way permeation layer 3 is fixed to the surface of inner adsorption layer 4. One-way permeation layer 3 includes one-way permeation membrane 31 and polyester fiber support mesh 32. Polyester fiber support mesh 32 is used to enhance the structural strength of one-way permeation membrane 31 and prevent one-way permeation membrane 31 from being stretched and deformed due to water vapor impact or temperature change during long-term use. One-way permeation membrane 31 is used to realize one-way outward permeation of water vapor, allowing only water vapor inside the cell to permeate to the outside, while blocking external liquid water or high humidity air from entering the cell in reverse.
[0027] Furthermore, drying holes 21 are formed on the outermost ring of the surface of the nest body 2. The drying holes 21 are connected to the installation space of electronic components inside the nest body 2. In a preferred embodiment, an exhaust fan for blowing air to one side of the nest cover 1 can also be installed in the drying holes 21. When the humidity inside the nest is high, the exhaust fan can be activated and the heat generated by the operation of the electronic components inside the nest body 2 can be introduced into the drone storage space covered by the nest cover 1. The waste heat is used to dry the storage space, reducing additional energy consumption and accelerating water evaporation.
[0028] The main body of the drone nest 2 is also provided with heat dissipation holes 22 for heat dissipation during operation. The drying hole 21 can be controlled to open and close, and when the drying hole 21 is open, the heat dissipation hole 22 can be partially closed to ensure that the heat is concentrated in the drone storage space, improve drying efficiency, and prevent heat loss through the heat dissipation hole 22.
[0029] The main body 2 of the drone housing is equipped with humidity and temperature sensors, both of which extend into the drone storage space to collect real-time temperature and humidity data. The outer surface of the housing cover 1 features a display screen 9 that shows the internal temperature and humidity. This screen is electrically connected to the humidity and temperature sensors, allowing maintenance personnel to easily monitor the internal environment. When humidity exceeds a preset threshold, maintenance personnel can promptly check the operation of relevant components to ensure stable dehumidification function.
[0030] In actual use, whether it is a continuous high humidity environment such as the return of spring or the situation where there is residual water vapor in the cell after rain or snow, the water vapor inside the cell will first be adsorbed by the hydrophilic coating on the surface of the internal adsorption layer 4. Then, under the guidance of the hydrophilic coating, it will spread on the surface of the internal adsorption layer 4 and flow along the extension direction of the water guide rib 41, enter the water collection channel 411 on the side wall of the water guide rib 41, and finally converge to the water dispersing hole 11 on the side of the cell cover 1 through the water collection channel 411. During this process, the one-way permeation membrane 31 of the one-way permeation layer 3 only allows water vapor to permeate from the inside of the cell to the water absorption space, and the polyester fiber support net 32 ensures the structural stability of the one-way permeation membrane 31.
[0031] The water-guiding protrusions 5 around the drainage holes 11, together with the water-blocking arc plates on the outer wall, effectively prevent external rainwater or moisture from seeping back into the drone through the drainage holes 11. When the humidity inside the drone housing is high and requires enhanced drying, the exhaust fan in the drying hole 21 is activated. The heat generated by the electronic components is blown into the drone storage space, accelerating moisture evaporation. Combined with the water-guiding effect of the one-way permeation layer 3 and the internal adsorption layer 4, the humidity inside the drone housing is quickly reduced. At this time, the heat dissipation hole 22 is partially closed to ensure heat concentration. Meanwhile, the humidity sensor and temperature sensor monitor the environmental status in real time and display the data on the display screen 9, ensuring that the entire drone housing maintains a dry storage environment at all times, reducing the damage of moisture to the drone's electronic components and lithium battery, and extending the drone's service life.
[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
