The transmission device 1 is connected to the power device 2. A connecting piece 101 is provided on the transmission device 1. The transmission device 1 is hinged to the first wing 3 and the second wing 4 through the connecting piece 101.

[0024] The transmission device 1 includes a frame 105 and a gear set. The frame 105 is connected to the power device 2. A swing arm 103 is provided on the frame 105. Two swing arms 103 are symmetrically arranged. The swing arm 103 is connected to the connecting piece 101. The swing arm 103 is connected to the gear set through the connecting rod 106. The swing arm 103 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 106 through the first pin 102. The swing arm 103 is rotatably connected to the frame 105 through the second pin 104.

[0025] The gear set includes a first eccentric gear 109, a second eccentric gear 113, and a double gear 110. The first eccentric gear 109 and the second eccentric gear 113 are respectively connected to the connecting rod 106. The first eccentric gear 109 meshes with the second eccentric gear 113. A third gear 114 is coaxially arranged on the double gear 110. The third gear 114 meshes with the first eccentric gear 109. The first eccentric gear 109, the second eccentric gear 113, and the double gear 110 are rotatably connected to the frame 105.

[0026] The first eccentric gear 109 and the second eccentric gear 113 are rotatably connected to the frame 105 via the third pin 107, and the double gear 110 is rotatably connected to the frame 105 via the fourth pin 111.

[0027] The power unit 2 includes a support rod 201, a motor 202, an electromagnetic rudder assembly, and a power and control assembly. The support rod 201 is connected to the frame 105, and the motor 202 is also connected to the frame 105. The support rod 201 is connected to both the electromagnetic rudder assembly and the power and control assembly. The support rod 201 has a square cross-section to prevent rotation of the frame 105, electromagnetic rudder pylon 203, and battery pylon 204 during flight.

[0028] The electromagnetic rudder assembly includes an electromagnetic rudder mount 203 and an electromagnetic rudder 207. The top of the electromagnetic rudder mount 203 is connected to a support rod 201, and the lower part of the electromagnetic rudder mount 203 is connected to the electromagnetic rudder 207.

[0029] The electromagnetic rudder 207 is provided with a rudder plate 206, and the rudder plate 206 is rotatably connected to the electromagnetic rudder 207 via a shaft.

[0030] The power and control components include a battery mount 204, a battery 205, and a flight control board. The battery mount 204 is connected to a support rod 201, the top of the battery 205 is connected to the battery mount 204, and the battery 205 is connected to the flight control board. The flight control board is electrically connected to the battery 205, the motor 202, and the electromagnetic rudder 207, respectively. The flight control board can control the operation of the motor 202 and the electromagnetic rudder 207, which are each electrically connected to the battery 205.

[0031] The motor 202 has a motor gear 112 on its output shaft, and the motor gear 112 meshes with the double gear 110.

[0032] The frame 105, support rod 201, electromagnetic rudder gantry 203, and battery gantry 204 can be made of carbon fiber, reducing the overall weight.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] The electromagnetic rudder 207 drives the rudder blade 206 to swing left and right, changing the airflow direction and achieving the turning of the biomimetic butterfly.

[0035] The motor 202 transmits power to the motor gear 112, the motor gear 112 transmits power to the double gear 110, the double gear 110 transmits power to the first eccentric gear 109 through the third gear 114, and the first eccentric gear 109 transmits power to the second eccentric gear 113.

[0036] The rotation of the first eccentric gear 109 and the second eccentric gear 113 drives the connecting rod 106 to reciprocate up and down, which in turn pushes the rocker arm 103 to swing up and down, making a flapping motion (double crank rocker mechanism). The flapping force is transmitted to the first wing 3 and the second wing 4 through the connecting piece 101 to make a flapping motion, generating an upward lift and a forward thrust, simulating the flapping behavior of a butterfly, and realizing the butterfly's flight.

[0037] The bionic butterfly uses the FlySky2A flight controller, which is wirelessly connected to the FlySky i6X remote controller to control the bionic butterfly.
