The limiting rod 158 and the limiting block 159 can limit the sliding distance of the pushing rod 156, and when the mounting base 155 moves in a direction away from the charging device 120, the mounting base 155 can drive the limiting block 159, the limiting rod 158 and the pushing rod 156 to move away from the charging device 120. The first elastic member is sleeved outside the limiting rod 158 and located in the groove 1551, one end of the first elastic member is connected to the bottom of the groove 1551, the other end of the first elastic member is connected to the first end of the pushing rod 156, and the pushing rod 156 has a tendency to move toward the charging device 120 due to the first elastic member.

The second driving structure 157 is in transmission connection with both of the sliders 152, and the connecting rod 154 is located on the sliding path of the sliders 152. When the second driving structure 157 drives the slider 152 to move towards the charging device 120, the slider 152 and the connecting rod 154 can push the connecting rod 154 to move towards the ram together after contacting, and after the slider 152 leaves the connecting rod 154, the connecting rod 154 can move towards the direction far away from the charging device 120 under the elastic action of the second elastic member, so as to avoid the influence on the up-and-down movement of the lifting platform 130.

In addition, when the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 lands or takes off, the positioning member 141 and the pushing member 151 are usually required to be away from the range of the second working platform 132, and the structure of the conveying device 150 can ensure that the moving range of the connecting rod 154 is completely limited between the supporting columns, and the pushing member 151 can be away from the range of the second working platform 132.
The multilayer unmanned aerial vehicle battery charging outfit that this embodiment disclosed is like this work:
initially, the pushing rod 156 is located at the position farthest from the first position-limiting groove 1552 under the action of the first elastic member, and at this time, the position-limiting block 159 is located at the connection position of the first position-limiting groove 1552 and the second position-limiting groove 1553, so as to limit the position of the pushing rod 156. The connecting rod 154 is located at the farthest position from the charging device 120 by the second elastic member, and the connecting rod 154 abuts on the end of the chute.
First, the lift platform 130 moves to the top of the frame 110, facilitating the landing of the drone 170. After the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 stops stably on the lifting platform 130, the first driving structure 142 drives the two positioning members 141 to be close to each other, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 is pushed to the positioning area 180, and the two positioning members 141 can push the unmanned aerial vehicle to the middle position of the lifting platform 130 in the width direction when being close to each other. Meanwhile, when the positioning members 141 are close to each other, the sliding rods 1412 may move to a moving path of a part of the sliding plates 161, and according to the size of the unmanned aerial vehicle 170, the number of the limited sliding plates 161 is also different, the larger the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 is, the farther the two positioning members 141 are apart from each other, the fewer the limited sliding plates 161 are, the more the sliding plates 161 can move, and therefore the process of the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 transitioning from the lifting platform 130 to the charging device 120 is more stable. Then the electric drone 170 of the lifting platform 130 descends to the corresponding height of the charging device 120.
Then the second driving structure 157 works, the second driving structure 157 drives the pushing member 151 to move toward the charging device 120, in this process, the sliding block 152 is firstly contacted with the connecting rod 154, and in the process that the pushing member 151 pushes the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 to continue to move toward the charging device 120, because the stiffness coefficient of the first elastic member is smaller than that of the second elastic member, when the mounting base 155 moves toward the charging device 120 along with the connecting rod 154, the pushing rod 156 cannot drive the sliding plate 161 to move toward the charging device 120, but at this time, the first elastic member is compressed. When the first elastic member is compressed to a certain degree, the first elastic member accumulates enough elastic potential energy, and the pushing force of the first elastic member acting on the pushing rod 156 toward the charging device 120 is greater than the force of the second elastic member acting on the pushing rod 156, and the sliding plate 161 can move together with the mounting base 155 toward the charging device 120. At the same time, the drone 170 is just pushed completely into the transition platform 160 consisting of the plurality of sliding plates 161.
As the second drive structure 157 drives the pusher 151 to continue moving toward the charging device 120, the drone 170 moves along with the transition platform 160 toward the charging device 120, at which point the drone 170 moves in synchronization with the transition platform 160. After transition platform 160 and charging device 120 contact, unmanned aerial vehicle 170 can directly move to charging device 120 from transition platform 160 in, because transition platform 160 and charging device 120 contact the back, unmanned aerial vehicle 170 is at the in-process that moves towards charging device 120, impeller 151 still can drive connecting rod 154 and mount pad 155 and continue to be close to towards charging device 120, consequently transition platform 160 can be inseparabler with the contact of charging device 120 under the effect of first elastic component, consequently, utilize transition platform 160 can fill up the gap between lift platform 130 and the charging device 120 completely, thereby avoid unmanned aerial vehicle 170 to take place to collide with at the removal in-process.
After the charging of the drone 170 is completed, the charging device 120 sends the drone 170 to the transition platform 160, and then the second driving structure 157 drives the pushing member 151 to move toward the direction away from the charging device 120, at this time, the pushing member 151 can push the drone 170 to move together along the direction away from the charging device 120.
Because the stiffness coefficient of the second elastic member is relatively high, in the process that the pushing member 151 is far away from the charging device 120, the second elastic member will first drive the sliding plate 161, the pushing rod 156, the mounting base 155 and the connecting rod 154 to be far away from the charging device 120 along with the sliding block 152, and after the sliding plate 161 completely returns to the notch, the sliding plate 161 does not move any more, and at this time, the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 moves from the sliding plate 161 to the lifting platform 130. When the pushing member 151 continues to move away from the charging device 120, the mounting base 155 and the connecting rod 154 continue to move away from the charging device 120 along with the sliding block 152 under the action of the first elastic member until the limiting block 159 moves to the connection position of the first limiting groove 1552 and the second limiting groove 1553, and at this time, the mounting base 155 does not continue to move. After the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 moves to the intermediate position of lift platform 130, drive unmanned aerial vehicle 170 by lift platform 130 and move to the top of frame 110, later positioner 140 loosens the restriction to unmanned aerial vehicle 170, and unmanned aerial vehicle 170 can take off again this moment.
The lift platform 130 need not wait for the completion of charging of the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 to leave the corresponding charging device 120 again, and after sending the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 into the corresponding charging device 120, the lift platform 130 can leave this charging device 120, sends new unmanned aerial vehicle 170 into other charging devices 120 or sends out this multilayer unmanned aerial vehicle charging equipment with the unmanned aerial vehicle 170 that has charged in other charging devices 120 and has accomplished.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and various modifications and changes may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement and the like made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
