A drone with folding wings

Abstract

The invention discloses an UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) having folding wings, and belongs to the technical field of aerospace. The UAV comprises an aircraft body, aircraft wheels, a pair of main wings, auxiliary wings, a wing rotating device and wing folding devices, wherein the aircraft wheels are arranged at the lower part of the aircraft body; the main wings are arranged at two sides of the aircraft body and are capable of generating an upward elevating force; the auxiliary wings are arranged on the main wings and are capable of generating a twisting force; the wing rotating device is arranged at the inner part of the aircraft body and is capable of enabling the main wings to rotate; the wing folding devices are arranged on the main wings and are capable of folding the main wings. Compared with a wing transverse folding in the prior art, the UAV disclosed by the invention is in a modified wing longitudinal folding mode, rotation of the wings from a transverse direction to a longitudinal direction can be firstly realized through the wing rotating device, and then a folding process of the wings can be completed through the wing folding devices, so that the storage space of the UAV can be more reduced for transverse folding of the wings, and transportation and dropping are convenient; the UAV can cruise in narrow space, so that different flight missions and requirements can bemet; meanwhile, great convenience can be brought for storage and transportation of an aircraft.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of aerospace technology, and in particular relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle with folding wings. Background technique [0002] UAV is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and its own program control device, that is, an unmanned aircraft. There is no cockpit on board, but power modules and flight control modules are installed. The personnel at the remote control station of the base aircraft track, locate, remote control, telemeter and digitally transmit it through radar and other equipment. It is different from ordinary model aircraft and can be used for long-distance and long-distance control and flight. Therefore, it is widely used in air transportation, reconnaissance, surveillance, communication and other application fields. [0003] At present, the wings of UAVs on the market mostly use fixed wings. Although this structure has some advantages in terms of strength and rigi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the wings of UAVs on the market mostly use fixed wings. Although this structure has some advantages in terms of strength and rigidity, with the development of UAVs in the civilian field, it brings disadvantages in packaging, transportation, etc. Inconvenience is becoming more and more prominent

Since the wings on both sides of the UAV are stretched out to a certain extent, it takes up a lot of space, which brings great difficulties to the packaging and transportation of the UAV.
