Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, due to the weight requirements of drones, the battery life of drones is generally relatively short, so the charging of drones has become a concern now
[0004] Some current drones can use the charging stand for charging, but this charging method generally requires manual participation, and the drone needs to be returned to the voyage for manual charging, which is cumbersome and brings a lot of inconvenience to users.

Embodiment 1

[0050] like figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a kind of unmanned aerial vehicle automatic charging method, comprises the following steps:

[0051] S1, the UAV receives a charging command;

[0052] S2, the UAV determines the position of the target charging stand;

[0053] S3, the UAV plans the optimal route, and returns to the target charging seat according to the optimal route;

[0054] S4, the UAV performs precise positioning and identifies the target charging stand, and then controls the UAV to land for charging.

[0055] In the above-mentioned technical scheme, since the battery life of the UAV is generally relatively short, when the UAV is used for long-term operation, it is necessary to charge the UAV once or more in the middle to ensure the completion of the UAV. Work accordingly.

[0056]When the UAV needs to be charged, the global positioning system (GPS system) on the UAV will start to search for the specific location of the targe...

Embodiment 2

[0085] like figure 2 As shown in or 3, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a drone 1, on which a charging device 11, a charging management board 12 and a battery 13 are arranged on the drone 1, and the battery 13 is arranged inside the drone 1 And it is connected with the charging management board 12, and the charging device 11 is arranged on the bottom, top or side of the drone.

[0086] The charging device 11 is a first electromagnetic coil 111 capable of non-contact charging, or a charging input port 112 capable of contact charging; the charging input port 112 is provided with a first adsorption member 1121 .

[0087] The drone in this embodiment is equipped with a global positioning system, which can be used to find a corresponding charging stand for automatic charging, thereby facilitating the charging process of the drone and improving the intelligence of the drone.

Embodiment 3

[0089] like Figure 4-6 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a charging stand 22 for charging the drone described in the second embodiment above. The charging stand 2 is provided with a power supply 22 and a power supply device 21. The power supply 22 and The power supply device 21 is connected, and the power supply device 21 supplies power to the second electromagnetic coil 211 capable of completing non-contact charging, or supplies power to at least one charging output port 212 capable of completing contact charging;

[0090] When the drone enters the charging range, the first electromagnetic coil of the drone interacts with the second electromagnetic coil 211 of the charging stand 2 to perform non-contact charging for the drone, so that even if the drone is not connected to the charging stand 2 Contact, as long as the drone is within the charging range, the charging stand 2 can charge the drone in a non-contact manner, providing convenience for the cha...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic charging method of an unmanned aerial vehicle, an unmanned aerial vehicle and a charging seat. the automatic charging method includes the following steps: S1 the unmanned aerial vehicle receives a charging command, S2, the UAV determines the position of the target charging seat; 3, the unmanned aerial vehicle plans that optimal route of and returning the targetchar seat according to the optimal route; S4, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) performs precise positioning and identifies a target charging seat, and then controls the UAV to land and charge. Whenthe unmanned aerial vehicle needs to be charged, the global positioning system of the unmanned aerial vehicle is started to search for the target charging seat, and the unmanned aerial vehicle automatically flies to the target charging seat for charging, so that the process of the automatic charging of the unmanned aerial vehicle is completed by the unmanned aerial vehicle, thereby effectively solving the problem that the charging time of the unmanned aerial vehicle is short, and facilitating the use of the user.

Description
