Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 An embodiment of the power assistance system 1 with a balloon 8 is shown. The power assistance system 1 for supporting an electrically propellable, vertical take-off and landing aircraft 2 or unmanned aerial vehicle is provided for supporting the aircraft 2 in the case of elevated flight.

[0030] Aircraft 2 has an electric drive 19 and a drive energy store 20 . The drive 19 and the drive accumulator 20 are also designed for elevated flight, but are preferably designed for level flight and for relatively low-power elevated flight. The drive 19 and the drive energy store 20 can thus be implemented particularly efficiently and lightly.

[0031] The power assist system 1 comprises a base unit 5 capable of flying and vertical takeoff and landing and an auxiliary drone 6 .

[0032] The base device 5 comprises a structure with, for example, two planes 15 , 16 . The upper plane 15 includes a transmission 11 and a system component 14 as an electronic control unit, ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a power assistance system (1) for supporting an electrically drivable aircraft (2) capable of vertical start and landing, wherein the power assistance system (1) is designed to support the aircraft (2) during ascent, and wherein the power assistance system (1) comprises a coupling device (3) having at least one line (4) for connecting the power assistance system (1) to the aircraft (2). According to the invention, the power assistance system (1) has a base apparatus (5) capable of flight and vertical start and landing, which ascends together with the aircraft (2) in order to assist the aircraft (2) during ascent, such as by adding energy and by controlling the length of the line, for example. The power assistance system (1) comprises an assistance drone (6), which supports the coupling of the aircraft (2) to the base apparatus (1) and relieves the aircraft (2) during ascent in that the assistance drone (6) raises the line (4).

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a power assist system for supporting an electrically driven aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing, wherein the power assist system is configured to support the aircraft in a situation of elevated flight, and wherein the power assist The system has a coupling device with at least one line for connecting the power auxiliary system to the aircraft. The invention also relates to a power assist device and a power assist method for supporting an electrically driven aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing. Background technique [0002] Aircraft have different power requirements depending on the flight situation (ie, for example, ascending flight, descending flight or level flight). Just for elevated flight, relatively high power and energy requirements of the drive components, such as the electric motor as drive and the battery as drive accumulator, are necessary. In level flight and falling flight, this requirem...
