The paraglider moves upward under the influence of the airflow, and the combined force of the paraglider and the drone causes the operator and the operator to move upward. Under the continuous traction of the drone, the paraglider, the operator, and the operator continue to rise. This allows takeoff to be completed without relying on an obstacle-free, windward slope, completely breaking free from terrain restrictions: a true flat-ground takeoff is achieved, expanding paragliding to vast plains, deserts, beaches, urban suburbs, and other non-mountainous areas, revolutionizing the accessibility of paragliding. 2.

[0018] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 11 , further details of this application are given.
[0019] The first lifting control embodiment: Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 A paraglider towing drone includes a drone frame 1, a retractable line assembly 2 is installed on the drone frame 1, a towing rope 21 is wound around the retractable line assembly 2, a plurality of wings 3 are installed on the drone frame 1, a landing gear 4 is installed on the lower side of the drone frame 1, a pair of axial flow fans 5 are installed on the landing gear 4, a pay-off tube 6 is rotatably installed on the drone frame 1, the towing rope 21 passes through the pay-off tube 6, a transmission 7 is installed at one end of the pay-off tube 6 connected to the drone frame 1, the transmission 7 is electrically connected to the wing 3, and the transmission 7 is used to control the rotation speed of the wing 3 to control the rise and fall of the drone, so that the paraglider automatically controls the rise of the drone as the altitude changes during takeoff, thereby reducing manual control, simplifying the takeoff process, and allowing the pilot to focus more on the flight itself; When the drone is controlling the paraglider to ascend, the drone, crew, and paraglider form a V-shape, with the crew and user at the lowest end of the V. The combined traction of the drone and the paraglider causes the crew and user to ascend. A detachable connector 9 is mounted on the end of the traction rope 21 away from the retractable line assembly 2. The detachable connector 9 includes a safety belt 91 worn by the pilot, a carabiner 92 mounted on the safety belt 91, and a locking assembly 93 mounted on the traction rope 21. The locking assembly 93 cooperates with the carabiner 92 to achieve separation and connection between the safety belt 91 and the traction rope 21. When the paraglider tows the drone, the safety belt 91 is first put on the staff or experiencer. The drone tilts upward and flies, pulling the staff and experiencer together. The paraglider generates an upward lift under the action of the airflow. The staff and experiencer are suspended in the air under the combined force of the lift of the paraglider and the drone. The drone continues to rise, and the paraglider continues to rise under the action of the airflow. When it rises to the specified height, there is sufficient airflow in the air, and the locking component 93 separates from the carabiner 92. At this time, the staff controls the paraglider to take the experiencer to experience the joy of flying in the air. During the flight, in case of emergency, the staff can manually operate the carabiner 92 to separate the safety belt 91 from the locking assembly 93, thereby improving the safety factor of the flight; During the drone's towing process, the axial fan 5 can provide lateral wind force for the drone, and the wings 3 can provide the drone with vertical upward force. Under the action of the lateral wind force and the vertical lift, an upward force is generated. Under the towing action of the drone, the paraglider also generates an upward traction force. The traction force of the paraglider and the traction force of the drone form a combined force, which can better tow the staff upward. Under the continuous towing of the drone, the paraglider, the staff and the experiencer continue to rise, so that they can complete the takeoff without relying on the conditions of an obstacle-free and windward slope, completely breaking away from the terrain: achieving a true flat ground takeoff, expanding the paragliding sport to vast plains, deserts, beaches, urban suburbs and other mountainless areas, and revolutionizing the accessibility of paragliding. Enhanced takeoff safety: Provides stable and controllable acceleration and climb, eliminating common risks of traditional takeoffs such as falling on steep slopes, parachute collapse, and loss of control due to wind shear.
[0020] Greatly reduce weather dependence: Active traction creates takeoff conditions, significantly relaxing the stringent requirements for natural wind direction and speed, effectively extending the number of flight days and improving site utilization; Under the action of the axial flow fan 5, the drone can generate sufficient upward traction to pull the staff and experience the staff moving upward; When the aircraft reaches a specified height, the detachable connector can quickly separate the operator from the traction rope 21, ensuring timely and reliable separation under predetermined conditions or in emergency situations, thereby minimizing the risk of separation accidents.
[0021] "A transmission 7 is installed at the end where the pay-off tube 6 is connected to the drone frame 1. The transmission 7 is electrically connected to the wing 3. The transmission 7 is used to control the rotation speed of the wing 3 to control the rise and fall of the drone." When the paraglider rises to the moving height and there is enough airflow in the sky to make the paraglider rise, the pay-off tube 6 will flip upward. At this time, under the action of the transmission 7, the wing 3 has a higher rotation speed, which makes the drone move upward, allowing the paraglider, staff and experiencers to reach the specified height faster.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The pay-off tube 6 includes an inner tube 61, an outer tube 62 is sleeved on the inner tube 61, and the inner tube 61 and the outer tube 62 are slidably connected. A friction member 63 is installed inside the inner tube 61, and the friction member 63 is sleeved on the traction rope 21. The traction rope 21 controls the extension and shortening of the pay-off tube 6; the pay-off tube 6 is used to prevent the traction rope 21 from contacting the wing 3; when the drone takes off, the traction rope 21 pays off the line, and the inner tube 61 slides relative to the outer tube 62 under the friction force of the friction member 63 (a rubber ring or an annular structure fixed on the inner tube 61, with bristles arranged on the inside) and the traction rope 21, thereby increasing the length of the pay-off tube 6, and when the pay-off tube 6 is flipped upward, it can extend to the side of the wing 3 away from the fuselage, thereby preventing the traction rope 21 from contacting the wing 3 when the drone is lower than the height of the staff; Under special air flow weather conditions, the paraglider continues to rise. The drone can be controlled to tow the paraglider, staff and experience personnel, and fly obliquely downward to control the paraglider's flight altitude, effectively preventing the paraglider from flying too high and posing a danger to the staff and experience personnel. During this process, the drone is located obliquely below the staff, and the drone, staff and paraglider form a top-down oblique line. When the pay-off tube 6 is stretched and flipped over, it extends to the side of the wing 3 away from the fuselage, thereby preventing the towing rope 21 from contacting the wing 3.
[0023] After the paraglider rises to a certain height, the detachable connector 9 separates the traction rope 21 from the staff, and the retractable wire assembly 2 controls the retraction of the traction rope 21. The inner tube 61 is retracted in the outer tube 62 under the action of friction, thereby shortening the wire tube 6. When the traction rope 21 is completely retracted, the wire tube 6 is completely shortened and its length is less than the height of the landing gear 4. At this time, the wire tube 6 can be effectively prevented from affecting the landing of the drone.
[0024] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3A limiting slip ring 64 is installed at one end of the inner tube 61 close to the outer tube 62, and an anti-slip ring 65 is installed at the end of the outer tube 62 away from the drone frame 1. A limiting spring 66 is sleeved on the inner tube 61, and the limiting spring 66 is located between the limiting slip ring 64 and the anti-slip ring 65. Under the action of the anti-slip ring 65 and the limiting slip ring 64, the inner tube 61 and the outer tube 62 can be effectively prevented from separating from each other; a limiting spring 66 is arranged between the limiting slip ring 64 and the anti-slip ring 65, which can increase the overlapping length of the inner tube 61 and the outer tube 62, and can effectively prevent the wire-releasing tube 6 from breaking or getting stuck.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 A limit member 8 is installed on the landing gear 4, and the limit member 8 is used to limit the flipping angle of the pay-off tube 6; it can effectively prevent the pay-off tube 6 from flipping over, causing the traction rope 21 to contact the wing 3 and affect the flight of the drone.
[0026] Second lifting control embodiment: Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 A swing traction motor 11 is installed on the drone frame 1. The swing traction motor 11 is used to control the pay-off tube 6 to swing up and down in the limiter 8. The limiter 8 controls the paraglider to rise; After the drone rises to a certain height, the swing traction motor 11 controls the pay-off tube 6 to swing up and down in the limiter 8. When the pay-off tube 6 swings downward, the pay-off assembly 2 does not pay-off the line. When the pay-off tube 6 swings upward, the pay-off assembly 2 pays off the line (like flying a kite in our daily life), which can make the paraglider quickly rise to the specified height.
[0027] Reference Figure 5, an adjustable telescopic rod 41 is installed on the landing gear 4, and the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is used to adjust the blowing direction of the axial flow fan 5; the telescopic end of the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is rotatably installed on the axial flow fan 5, and the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is rotatably installed on the landing gear 4; the axial flow fans 5 are fixed together side by side, and the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is installed on the upper and lower sides of the axial flow fan 5 in a symmetrical structure; the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is hinged to the landing gear 4 at one end away from the axial flow fan 5, and the adjustable telescopic rod 41 is used to control the up and down flipping of the axial flow fan 5; during the flight of the drone, there are two groups of adjustable telescopic rods 41, one group is installed on the upper side of the axial flow fan 5, and the other group is installed on the lower side of the axial flow fan 5, controlling the adjustable telescopic rod 4 on the upper side of the axial flow fan 5 1 is shortened, and the regulating telescopic rod 41 on the lower side of the axial flow fan 5 is extended. At this time, the axial flow fan 5 flips upward, and the regulating telescopic rod 41 on the upper side of the axial flow fan 5 is controlled to extend, and the regulating telescopic rod 41 on the lower side of the axial flow fan 5 is shortened. At this time, the axial flow fan 5 flips downward. By controlling the extension and shortening of the regulating telescopic rod 41, the inclination angle of the axial flow fan 5 can be controlled, so that the thrust generated by the wind direction of the axial flow fan 5 and the lift of the wing 3 generate a resultant force, and the direction of the resultant force is close to the direction of the pay-off tube 6, so that the traction force can be better utilized; by controlling the inclination angle of the axial flow fan 5, the direction of the resultant force between the axial flow fan 5 and the wing 3 can be made close to the direction of the pay-off tube 6, so as to better maintain the balance of the UAV and make the flight of the UAV more stable.
[0028] Reference Figure 5 The limit member 8 includes a lower limit rod 81 fixed laterally to the lower side of the landing gear 4, an upper limit rod 82 fixed laterally to the landing gear 4, the lower limit rod 81 and the upper limit rod 82 are parallel to each other, a pair of tilt limit rods 83 are fixed on the lower limit rod 81 and the upper limit rod 82, the wire tube 6 is arranged between the tilt limit rods 83, the lower limit rod 81 limits the downward turning angle of the wire tube 6, the upper limit rod 82 limits the upward turning angle of the wire tube 6, and the tilt limit rod 83 is used to limit the horizontal deviation of the wire tube 6 The pay-off tube 6 is always tilted downward under the action of the lower limit rod 81 and the upper limit rod 82, thereby effectively preventing the pay-off tube 6 from over-turning and causing the traction rope 21 to contact the wing 3; when the pay-off tube 6 is extended, the pay-off tube 6 turns upward and contacts the upper limit rod 82, and the pay-off tube 6 supports the traction rope 21, which can further prevent the traction rope 21 from contacting the wing 3. At the same time, a protective cover is installed on the wing 3, which can effectively prevent the traction rope 21 from contacting the wing 3 and affecting the flight of the drone.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 6A control center 10 is installed on the drone frame 1, a gyroscope 12 is installed on the drone frame 1, and a camera 13 is installed on the side of the drone frame 1 close to the axial flow fan 5. The control center 10 includes a storage module 101, a data processing module 102, and a radio module 103. The gyroscope 12, the transmission 7, the control telescopic rod 41, the swing traction motor 11, the wing 3 and the axial flow fan 5 are all electrically connected to the data processing module 102; two batteries are installed on the drone frame 1, and the batteries supply power to the wing 3, the axial flow fan 5 and the control center. There are two batteries, one is a working battery and the other is a backup battery; when the drone is flying, the gyroscope 12 senses the change of the drone's attitude and transmits the data to the data processing module 102. The data processing module 102 controls the rotation of the wing 3 according to the data of the gyroscope 12, thereby maintaining the balance of the drone; When the drone is pulling the staff, the experiencer and the paraglider up, the paraglider causes the angle of the pay-off tube 6 to deviate up and down during the ascent. Rotating shafts are fixed on both sides of the end where the pay-off tube 6 is connected to the transmission 7. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the drone frame 1. The pay-off tube 6 drives the rotating shaft to rotate during the flipping process. The rotating shaft controls the transmission 7 to move. The transmission 7 transmits relevant data to the data processing module 102. The data processing module 102 controls the wing 3 to generate a vertical upward force. The data processing module 102 controls the telescopic rod 41 to adjust the angle of the axial flow fan 5 so that the resultant force generated by the wing 3 and the axial flow fan 5 is in the same direction as the traction force on the pay-off tube 6, thereby maximizing the traction force and facilitating the maintenance of the balance of the drone. In order to enable the paraglider to reach the specified height faster, the angle of the pay-off tube 6 is driven to swing up and down by the swing traction motor 11, and the data processing module 102 is used to control the pay-off assembly 2 to pay out the line. The pay-off is stopped when the pay-off tube 6 swings down, and the line is paid out when the pay-off tube 6 swings up, so that the paraglider can reach the specified height faster; (the transmission 7 stops working during this process).
[0030] When the paraglider reaches the specified height, the data processing module 102 controls the movement of the detachable connector 9 through the radio module 103 (WiFi signal or electromagnetic wave signal) to separate the traction rope 21 from the staff, or sends a separation command through the remote control, which is transmitted to the data processing module 102 via radio, and then controls the movement of the detachable connector 9 through the radio module 103.

The pilot can separate from the locking assembly 93 by controlling the opening and closing of the carabiner 92, thereby separating the pilot from the traction rope. When the drone starts to take off, the electric telescopic part 951 changes from an extended state to a shortened state, the rack 952 controls the rotation of the gear 96, and the first arc rod 97 and the second arc rod 98 change from an open state to a closed state, thereby locking the locking assembly 93 on the carabiner 92. An arc sleeve 99 is installed at the end of the second arc rod 98 for inserting the first arc rod 97. After the first arc rod 97, the second arc rod 98 and the arc sleeve 99 are connected, they form a closed annular structure, so that the structure of the locking assembly 93 is more stable after being locked.
[0032] Reference Figure 7 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 A wireless control switch 941 is mounted on the locking base 94, and a distance control switch 942 is mounted on the locking base 94. The wireless control switch 941 is connected to the control center 10 via radio, and the wireless control switch 941 controls the movement of the electric telescopic member 951; the distance control switch 942 is used to measure the distance between the flight crew and the ground and control the movement of the electric telescopic member 951; When the drone reaches a specified altitude, a remote controller sends a command to the control center 10. The control center controls the electric telescopic member 951 via the wireless control switch 941, causing the electric telescopic member 951 to change from a shortened state to an extended state, thereby changing the first arc rod 97 and the second arc rod 98 from a closed state to an open state, and pulling the locking assembly 93 and the carabiner 92 apart. (The distance control switch 942 emits ultrasonic waves to measure the distance and is connected to the locking base 94 via a wire. The distance control switch 942 is always suspended on the lower side of the locking base 94.) The distance control switch 942 measures the distance between the locking base 94 and the ground.
