在本实施例中,所述第一连接部133及第二连接部134与所述主体部132为一体成型结构。在其它一些实施例中,所述第一连接部133和第二连接部134也可分别成型,通过胶合等方式与所述主体部132固定连接。
所述第二减振元件14具有弹性,包括第一阻挡部部141、连接杆142和第二阻挡部143,所述第一阻挡部141和第二阻挡部143分别设置于所述连接杆142的两端。所述第一阻挡部部141呈圆台状,所述连接杆142依次穿过第一连接孔1121、通孔131和第二连接孔1221。第二减振元件14可沿其轴向在所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12之间往复移动。所述连接杆142的 长度大于所述第一减振元件13的高度(所述第一减振元件13和第二减振元件14均处于非受力状态),换言之,所述连接杆142依次贯穿第一连接件11、第一减振元件13和第二连接件12,并且所述第一阻挡部141和所述第二阻挡部143的间距大于所述第一连接件11和所述第二连接件12的间距。所述第一连接件11可沿所述连接杆142的轴线相对于所述第二连接件12运动。所述第二阻挡部143呈圆台状,并且所述第一阻挡部141的直径大于所述第一连接孔1121的直径;和第二阻挡部143的直径大于所述第二连接孔1221的直径。所述第二减振元件14用于在所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12沿所述连接杆142的轴线相对运动的过程中,阻止所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12之间的间距大于预设间距(所述预设间距为:当所述第二连接件12与所述阻挡部143抵接时,所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12之间的间距),以实现增强减振的效果。即,当所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12相对运动至所述第一底壁1122至所述第二底壁1222的距离等于所述连接杆142的长度时,所述第一阻挡部141与所述第一底壁1122抵接,所述第二阻挡部143与所述第二底壁1222抵接。
在本实施例中,所述连接杆142的横截面形状为圆形,相对应的,所述第一连接孔1121、第二连接孔1221和通孔131的形状均为圆形。在其它一些实施例中,所述连接杆142的横截面形状还可以根据实际情况的需要,设计为矩形、椭圆形或者三角形等,所述第一连接孔1121、第二连接孔1221和通孔131的形状与其相适配。
可以理解的是,在其它一些实施例中,所述第一阻挡部141与所述第二安装部122固定连接,所述连接杆142依次穿过第一连接孔1121、通孔131和第二连接孔1221。所述连接杆142的长度大于所述第一减振元件13在未被拉伸或压缩状态下(未受力状态)的高度,换言之,所述连接杆142依次贯穿第一连接件11、第一减振元件13和第二连接件12,并且所述第二阻挡部143与所述第一连接件11的第一安装部112之间具有间距。
在使用上述无人机200进行航拍的过程中,所述云台组件100悬挂于所述无人机的机身210上,无人机200在飞行过程中,机身210会产生频率较高的振动,并向所述云台组件100传递。此外,在无人机200在空中改变飞行状态(如改变飞行方向或改变机身倾斜角度)或者受到空中气流影响时, 无人机200的机身210会产生频率较低的振动,并向所述云台组件100传递。当机身210产生频率较高的振动时,机身210的振幅较小,所述第一减振元件13通过弹性形变允许所述第二连接件12相对于第一连接件11运动,以过滤该频率较高的振动,从而使得云台20和摄像装置30保持平稳,从而确保摄像装置30拍到的画面清晰并平稳。当机身210产生频率较低的振动时,机身210的振幅较大,相应的,所述第一减振元件13的弹性形变较大;所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12的间距变化较大,所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12的间距增大至一定数值时,所述第二阻挡部143抵接所述第二连接件12,以阻止所述第一连接件11和第二连接件12的间距进一步扩大,从而起到减振作用。在此过程中,第一减振元件13和第二减振元件14的减振效果叠加,即,两者共同发生作用,从而增加了减振装置10的阻尼和刚性,进而过滤掉该频率较低的振动。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本发明的技术方案,而非对其限制;在本发明的思路下,以上实施例或者不同实施例中的技术特征之间也可以进行组合,步骤可以以任意顺序实现,并存在如上所述的本发明的不同方面的许多其它变化,为了简明,它们没有在细节中提供;尽管参照前述实施例对本发明进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本发明各实施例技术方案的范围。
