Abstract

To provide a mounting structure for an unmanned aircraft capable of preventing it from falling. [Solution] The mounting structure includes a device body and a mounting structure. The device body includes a fixed platen (11) and a fixed column (12). The mounting structure includes an extension rod (21), a slider (22), a locking post (23), and an L-shaped plate (24). The extension rod has a moving groove (211), and the lower end surface of the L-shaped plate has a locking groove. One end of the L-shaped plate has a locking hole (242), and the extension rod has a sliding groove (212). When activated, the electric telescopic column moves the moving platen upward, causing the moving plate to move upward, causing the wedge-shaped blocks to slide away from each other along the horizontal groove until the locking post engages with the locking hole. The slider slides along the moving groove away from the fixed platen, sliding the mounting member along the moving groove to the locking post. The mounting member is securely fixed in the locking groove when the drone encounters severe vibrations during flight.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of drones, and more particularly to a mounting structure for drones that can prevent them from falling. [Background technology]

[0002] Unmanned aerial vehicles are aircraft that do not require on-board pilot operation and whose flight is controlled by remote control or autonomous programs, and flight attitude and the entire mission execution process can be controlled by ground stations, remote controls, mobile phone apps and embedded algorithms, and they are widely used in many fields, including military, civilian and industrial. The mounting structure of a drone is the mechanical and electrical connection system that attaches, fixes and supports various loads such as cameras, sensors, cargo and batteries to the drone.

[0003] A search revealed that a Chinese patent (publication number: CN221049971U) discloses a mounting structure for an unmanned aerial vehicle, comprising a center fixed seat, a release plate, and a plurality of guide rails, the release plate rotatably connected to the center fixed seat, one end of the guide rail fixed to the center fixed seat, the center fixed seat connected to the body of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the guide rails provided with a rail structure and an elastic member, a mounting member attached to the guide rail via the guide rail structure, the elastic member exerting an elastic force on the mounting member in the direction of the release plate, a release groove provided in the release plate, when the release plate rotates and the release groove aligns with the guide rail, the mounting member is pushed into the release groove by the elastic force of the elastic member and released.

[0004] However, this device relies solely on the elastic force of the elastic member and the stopper structure of the release plate to maintain the loaded state of the mount member. If it encounters severe vibrations during flight, failure of the stopper structure, or attenuation of the elastic force of the elastic member, the mount member may accidentally come off the guide rail, resulting in not only mission failure but also a safety risk due to falling objects. Therefore, to solve the above problems, it is necessary to provide a mount structure for drones that can prevent them from falling. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0021] In this embodiment, during use, the user sequentially inserts each mount member into the locking groove 241 via one end of each L-shaped plate 24, which has the locking hole 242. After activation, the electric telescopic column 17 moves the movable platen 16 upward toward the fixed platen 11 until the locking post 23 engages with the locking hole 242. Then, the electric telescopic column 17 moves the movable platen 16 upward, causing the wedge-shaped blocks 26 engaged with the movable plates 27 to slide away from each other along the horizontal grooves 111.

[0026] Specifically, each set of locking posts 23 is provided with a plurality of locking posts 23, and the mounting structure 2 further includes a plurality of connecting plates 25, each of which is fixedly attached to one end of each set of the plurality of locking posts 23 that is away from the locking holes 242, and the lower end surface of the fixed plate 11 is provided with a plurality of circumferentially distributed lateral grooves 111, and the connecting plates 25 are slidably arranged in the lateral grooves 111.

[0028] Specifically, the device body 1 further includes a movable platen 16 and an electric telescopic column 17, the ends of the plurality of movable plates 27 farther from the wedge-shaped block 26 are attached to the side wall of the movable platen 16, the two ends of the electric telescopic column 17 are respectively connected to the upper end surface of the movable platen 16 and the lower end surface of the fixed platen 11, the electric telescopic column 17 is arranged coaxially with the fixed column 12, and the plurality of movable plates 27 are distributed circumferentially around the axial direction of the electric telescopic column 17.

[0029] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to release the mounting member, the electric telescopic column 17 moves the movable table 16 and the movable plate 27 downward, and the wedge-shaped blocks 26 engaged with the movable plate 27 slide toward each other along the horizontal grooves 111 until the locking posts 23 are disengaged from the locking holes 242, allowing the mounting member to fall by gravity, making the operation simple.

[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows.

[0031] Before use, the user attaches the upper end of the fixed post 12 to an external drone device. In the initial state, the lock post 23 is disengaged from the lock hole 242, and the stopper plate 221 is disengaged from the stopper groove 243.

[0032] During use, the user sequentially inserts each mounting element into the locking groove 241 through one end of each L-shaped plate 24, which has the locking hole 242. After activation, the electric telescopic column 17 moves the movable platen 16 upward toward the fixed platen 11 until the locking post 23 engages with the locking hole 242, and then moves the multiple movable plates 27 upward, causing the wedge-shaped blocks 26 engaged with the movable plates 27 to slide away from each other along the horizontal grooves 111.

[0033] After that, the activated electric telescopic rod 15 moves the slide plate 14 downward along the axial direction of the fixed column 12. At this time, the angle between the axial direction of the link 13 and the axial direction of the fixed column 12 changes, causing the slider 22 to slide along the moving groove 211 in a direction away from the fixed platen 11, and the mount member to slide along the moving groove 211 to the locking post 23. In this way, the provision of the locking post 23 ensures that the mount member is securely fixed in the locking groove 241 to prevent the mount member from accidentally falling off if the drone encounters severe vibrations during flight.

[0034] When it is necessary to release the mounting member, the electric telescopic column 17 moves the movable table 16 and the movable plate 27 downward, and the wedge-shaped blocks 26 engaged with the movable plate 27 slide toward each other along the horizontal grooves 111 until the locking posts 23 are disengaged from the locking holes 242, allowing the mounting member to fall by gravity, making the operation simple.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
