Unmanned transportation systems using unmanned aerial vehicles

Abstract

An unmanned transportation system using an unmanned aerial vehicle is disclosed. An unmanned delivery port and an unmanned transportation system including the unmanned delivery port can be provided. The unmanned delivery port includes: a main body in which storage racks for keeping one or more delivery items are formed; an input door unit formed on the top of the main body to open or close the an input hole thereof for inputting items; and a receiving unit configured to take out delivery items stored in the storage rack of the main body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to unmanned delivery systems using unmanned aerial vehicles, and more particularly, to an unmanned delivery port configured to automatically store and release items airdropped by an unmanned aerial vehicle and an unmanned delivery port including the unmanned delivery port. Port's unmanned transportation system. Background technique [0002] Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (or unmanned aerial vehicles) are commercialized, which are used in various fields such as aerial photography. In particular, with the popularization of e-commerce, drones are used for item delivery, and therefore, are very attractive to the relevant business circles. [0003] Conventional transportation devices are inevitably used for heavy and bulky items, but drones are used for lightweight and small items without using conventional transportation equipment and manpower, thereby being able to improve business efficiency. [0004] However, if the d...

Problems solved by technology

However, the existing unmanned home delivery box has the problem that it cannot be used for drone home delivery because a person has to deliver items to the existing unmanned home delivery box

[0006] If an item is delivered using a drone (i.e., an unmanned aerial vehicle) using an existing unmanned home delivery box without any changes, the drone may not be able to accurately identify the location of the delivery box to which the item will be delivered information, or if communication related to item delivery (drop) is not properly performed between the delivery box and the drone, a safety incident may occur

Also, there is a problem with the possibility of muggings due to the nature of unmanned home delivery boxes and the possibility of damage to items airdropped above the delivery box resulting in damages
