Embodiment 1

[0045] As shown in the figure, the UAV of this embodiment includes a fuselage, a main wing arranged on the fuselage, an elevon arranged on the main wing, a canard arranged on the front of the fuselage, and a canard arranged on the fuselage. The rear vertical tail, the landing gear set under the fuselage, the fuel tank, the battery, the control system, and the power management system.

[0046] The main wing is triangular, the elevons, canards, and vertical tail are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the centerline of the fuselage, the nose of the fuselage is provided with an electric ducted fan, and the wingtips on both sides of the main wing are symmetrically arranged. There is an electric ducted fan, and a guiding rudder surface is arranged directly below the electric ducted fan, and the three groups of electric ducted fans are arranged in a regular triangle non-coplanar arrangement.

[0047] The fuselage used in this implementation has a U-shaped structure. The fuselage...

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel hybrid vertical / short take-off and landing (V / STOL) unmanned aerial vehicle, aiming at solving the problems of complicated structure, high cost and the like of the existing aerial vehicles. The unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a body, a main wing, take-off and landing auxiliary wings arranged on the main wing, canards arranged at the front part of the body, a vertical tail arranged at the rear part of the body, a landing gear, an accumulator battery, a control system, a power supply management system and the like, wherein the landing gear, the accumulator battery, the control system, the power supply management system and the like are arranged below the body. The unmanned aerial vehicle adopts a ducted fan to provide a lift and assist balance during vertical take off and landing, and adopts an engine to provide the main push force and to automatically generate electricity so as to effectively utilize oil-electricity complement, simultaneously the reasonable hybrid use of fuel oil and electric energy is achieved through the structure and aerodynamic configuration design of the aerial vehicle, thereby achieving vertical and short take-off and landing, reducing the control difficulty of the aerial vehicle and solving the problem of inconsistence between difficult control and short voyage of the existing V / STOL unmanned aerial vehicles; the novel hybrid vertical / short take-off and landing (V / STOL) unmanned aerial vehicle disclosed by the invention can achieve vertical / short take-off and landing, and has the advantages of flexible and steady flight, wide application range and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aerospace, in particular to a novel hybrid vertical short-range take-off and landing unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] Due to its low cost, good safety and wide range of uses, UAVs have great application potential in both military and civilian fields. In military terms, UAVs can be used for low-altitude reconnaissance, communication, electronic jamming and ground attack; in civilian terms, UAVs can be used for communication relay, environmental research, monitoring and rescue of natural disasters, etc. Therefore, in recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles have attracted people's attention and the attention of the military of various countries. [0003] For early UAVs, their endurance time is short, the flight altitude is low, the reconnaissance and surveillance area is small, and information cannot be obtained continuously, which often leads to intelligence "blind spots". With the deepening of...
