Foldable catapult type unmanned aerial vehicle

Abstract

By designing of a novel folding mechanism and unfolding-locking device on a wing and a fuselage, the invention provides a foldable catapult type unmanned aerial vehicle which can be folded, can save loading space, can be suitable for catapult type takeoff and can be automatically unfolded. The foldable catapult type unmanned aerial vehicle can be applied to cross-shaped and I-shaped unmanned aerial vehicles, and can be applied to other types of unmanned aerial vehicles, such as multi-rotor type, and the wide application range is achieved. The unmanned aerial vehicle can be folded and loaded when not used, so that storage space and loading space are saved. The unmanned aerial vehicle can automatically unfold the wing when the unmanned aerial vehicle takes off, and automatically lock up whenthe wing reaches the full unfolding position, so that the wing is fixed at the required position, and the foldable unmanned aerial vehicle can be applied to the catapult type takeoff. The foldable catapult type unmanned aerial vehicle is exquisite and reasonable in design, easy to load and transport, capable of automatically unfolding during the catapult type takeoff, and capable of filling the blank in the field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a catapult unmanned aerial vehicle with foldable wings. Background technique [0002] UAV is the abbreviation of "unmanned aircraft". In recent years, both research and industrial applications have developed rapidly, and are widely used in military, agriculture, communication, photography and many other fields. However, most of the unmanned aerial vehicles in the prior art have unreasonable structural design. Because the wings cannot be folded, the structure size is large, which is inconvenient to store and carry. The problem of assembly will bring great inconvenience especially when it is applied in the military field. In order to overcome this shortcoming, there are also foldable UAVs developed and produced in recent years, most of which are foldable wings. However, this foldable UAV in the prior art has the following problems: although the wings can be Folding, but on...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, most of the unmanned aerial vehicles in the prior art have unreasonable structural design. Because the wings cannot be folded, the structure size is large, which is inconvenient to store and carry. The problem of assembly, especially when it is applied in the military field, will bring great inconvenience

In order to overcome this shortcoming, there are also foldable UAVs developed and produced in recent years, most of which are foldable wings. However, this foldable UAV in the prior art has the following problems: although the wings can be Folding, but only when storing the drone to save space, it needs to be taken out and unfolded before use, compared to fixed wing aircraft, its advantage is only to save space when storing

Especially when it is applied in the military field, there are many restrictions, because in military applications, UAVs are often used together with launch vehicles, and take off by catapult to complete the purpose of hitting the target. At present, the existing foldable UAV This requirement cannot be met. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a collapsible catapult UAV that can not only be folded and save loading space, but also be suitable for catapult take-off. application is important
