Abstract

A smart take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is disclosed, suitable for use with a UAV and including a landing component and a landing platform for positioning and parking the UAV. The landing platform includes a top wall surrounding an opening extending longitudinally along a longitudinal line; a connecting wall extending downwards from the opening with a gradually decreasing diameter relative to the longitudinal line; and a bottom wall connecting the end of the connecting wall away from the opening, and together with the connecting wall defining a parking space suitable for at least accommodating the landing component. The landing component cooperates with the connecting wall so that, during UAV landing, the landing component can slide down the connecting wall into the parking space and be positioned by the connecting wall.

Claims

1. A smart take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), applicable to use with a UAV, and comprising: an identification device suitable for mounting on the UAV; a landing component suitable for placement below the UAV; and a landing platform for positioning and parking the UAV, comprising a top wall surrounding an opening extending along a longitudinal line; a connecting wall extending downward from the opening with a gradually decreasing diameter relative to the longitudinal line; a bottom wall connecting the end of the connecting wall away from the opening and defining, together with the connecting wall, a parking space suitable for at least accommodating the landing component; a first barcode disposed on the top wall; a second barcode disposed on the connecting wall; and a third barcode disposed on the bottom wall, wherein the identification device is used to identify the first barcode, the second barcode, and the third barcode, and generates landing information for guiding the UAV after identification, wherein... The first barcode provides directional information to guide the drone's turning direction, while the second and third barcodes provide location information regarding the drone's position when it lands.

2. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 1, wherein the drawing area of ​​the first barcode is larger than the drawing areas of the second barcode and the third barcode.

3. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 1, wherein, The landing component includes two branches that are laterally spaced apart from each other, each of which is semi-circular, making the landing component ring-shaped, and the connecting wall is tapered downwards along the longitudinal line.

4. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 3, wherein, The connection angle between the connecting wall and the bottom wall is 45°.

5. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 1 further includes a balancing mechanism installed below the landing platform for maintaining the level of the landing platform.

6. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 5, wherein the bottom wall surface of the landing platform has a center point, a first axis passing through the center point, and a second axis passing through the center point and perpendicular to the first axis, both the first axis and the second axis being horizontal to the landing platform, the balancing mechanism having a central support rod connected to the bottom wall surface and located at the center point, a first support rod connected to the top wall surface and located on the first axis, and a second support rod connected to the top wall surface and located on the second axis, the first support rod being extendable and retractable so that the landing platform can rotate around the second axis with the central support rod as the fulcrum, and the second support rod being extendable and retractable so that the landing platform can rotate around the first axis with the central support rod as the fulcrum.

7. The intelligent take-off and landing system for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 5 further includes a base installed below the balancing mechanism and defining a setting space, wherein, The drone includes a charging contact, and the connecting wall has a through hole running parallel to the longitudinal line. The base includes a twisted wire mechanism disposed in the setting space and having a charging wire for power supply. The charging wire of the twisted wire mechanism is adapted to extend through the through hole and connect to the contact when the drone is parked in the parking space.
