Unmanned aerial vehicle with modular flexible configuration inhabitation contacts

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle with modular flexible configuration inhabitation contacts, and relates to the field of aviation. The unmanned aerial vehicle can realize inhabitationonly by adjusting the relative poses of an undercarriage and the unmanned aerial vehicle, does not need to integrally change the flight state of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and is quick and simple to operate. The unmanned aerial vehicle comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle body, an undercarriage, an inhabitation contact module, an additive manufacturing module and a camera. The undercarriage isinstalled at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle body, the undercarriage is composed of one or more pairs of mechanical arms, the undercarriage is movably connected with the unmanned aerial vehicle body, and an inhabitation contact module is installed on the undercarriage. The camera and the additive manufacturing module are further mounted at the bottom of the unmanned aerial vehicle body,and the operation range of the additive manufacturing module covers the mounting and moving range of the undercarriage. Stable contact with a surrounding structure is established through the inhabitation contact module, the unmanned aerial vehicle can slow down or completely stop some rotor wings after inhabitation is stable, the task operation flexibility of the unmanned aerial vehicle is greatlyimproved, and the operation time of the unmanned aerial vehicle is greatly shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aviation technology, in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with modular flexible perching contacts. Background technique [0002] Establishing a stable contact roost state through the drone environment can help small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) save battery power and extend runtime. However, most drone perching strategies require complex manipulations and rely on specific structures. Examples include attaching to rough walls or grasping tree branches. [0003] While perched, the drone must be positioned close to the parked target, thus placing high demands on the control of the drone. Different from flying in open space, the process of UAV habitat often involves aggressive manipulation states such as high angle of attack and stall, so that the landing gear can reach the desired attitude and position. UAVs tailored to the qualities required for habitat are lacking in the prior art. Contents o...
