Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, and in particular to a high-strength anti-pull angle moving device, a tethered unmanned aerial vehicle and a system. Background Art

[0002] Tethered drones are mainly used for long-term uninterrupted aerial monitoring and emergency communications. They can be equipped with special visible light cameras and infrared thermal imagers, as well as special emergency communication relay equipment. Tethered drones have now been widely used in many professional fields such as military, firefighting, petroleum, surveying and mapping, transportation, and scientific research.

[0003] At present, tethered drones are powered by wires, which can provide long-term flight time. However, the tether ropes and fuselages of current tethered drones are mostly connected to the fuselage by wires, which are often connected to the fuselage by soldering. If the external force is too large, the wires may easily become disconnected. In severe cases, accidents such as power outages and crashes of the aircraft may occur. Summary of the invention

[0004] A first object of the present invention is to provide an angular movement device that prevents a mooring rope from being twisted and broken.

[0005] A second object of the present invention is to provide a tethered drone that improves the safety of the drone.

[0006] A third object of the present invention is to provide a tethered drone system that improves the safety of the drone.

[0007] In order to achieve the first purpose of the present invention, the present invention provides an angle moving device, which includes a bearing, a mounting seat, a rocker and a mooring rope. The bearing is fixed in the mounting seat, the rocker passes through the bearing and is connected to the bearing, the rocker is provided with a threading hole, the threading hole passes through the bearing, the mooring rope passes through the threading hole, and a limit block is provided at the upper end of the mooring rope, and the limit block cooperates with the upper end limit of the rocker.

[0008] A further solution is that the angle moving device also includes a conductive slip ring and a transmission member, the conductive slip ring includes a first connecting end and a second connecting end, the first connecting end is electrically connected to the mooring rope, the conductive slip ring is located above the rocker, and the transmission member is connected between the first connecting end and the rocker.

[0009] A further solution is that the transmission member adopts a coil spring, one end of the coil spring is sleeved on the first connecting end, the other end of the coil spring is sleeved on the rocker, and the conductive slip ring, the coil spring and the rocker are coaxially arranged.

[0010] A further solution is that the first connecting end and the limiting block are both located inside the coil spring.

[0011] A further solution is that a shaft sleeve is arranged at the upper end of the rocker, a spiral groove is arranged on the shaft sleeve, and the spiral spring is engaged in the spiral groove.

[0012] A further solution is that the angle moving device also includes a clamping assembly, a clamping groove is provided on the rocker, the clamping spring assembly is arranged in the clamping groove, and the clamping spring assembly is adjacent to the bearing and the rocker.

[0013] A further solution is that the bearing is configured as a spherical bearing, the spherical bearing comprises an outer ring and an inner ring, the outer ring is fixed on the mounting seat, and the rocker passes through the inner ring and is connected to the spherical bearing.

[0014] A further solution is that the angle moving device includes a one-way angle detection component, the one-way angle detection component includes an angle sensor component and a first rocker arm, the rocker is used to drive the first rocker arm to rotate, and the angle sensor component is used to detect the rotation angle of the first rocker arm.

[0015] As can be seen from the above scheme, the angle moving device of the present invention is applied to a tethered drone, and the threading hole is used to thread the tethering rope. Since the tethered drone often changes its flight posture during flight, it is easy to perform rotation actions at different angles. However, the end of the tethering rope that is pulled to the ground (generally connected to the vehicle, and the tethered drone follows the vehicle in flight) often does not rotate, which causes the tethering rope to easily twist, affecting the normal flight of the tethered drone. In severe cases, it may cause the tethering rope to be excessively twisted and knotted, resulting in a malfunction that causes the tethered drone to crash. In addition, in the present technical scheme, it is necessary to sense the positional relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the tethering rope, and then determine the flight direction and speed of the tethered drone. If the tethering rope is twisted, it is easy for the tethering rope to deviate from the connection position, which may easily cause the tethered drone to have a large error in detecting the angle of the tethering rope, resulting in a deviation in the tethered drone's position recognition of the bottom vehicle, causing the tethered drone to be unable to perform good coordinated movement with the bottom vehicle. According to the structural design of the angle moving device, on the one hand, since the tethering rope is inserted into the rocker, the tethered drone can sense the positional relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the rocker, so that the tethered drone can follow the vehicle. In this way, even if the tethering rope is slightly twisted, it will not affect the angle of the rocker, and will not cause angle detection error. The angle of the rocker can better reflect the relative positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, which is conducive to accurately sensing the positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle; on the other hand, due to the design of the slip ring or the bearing, the rocker is not easy to rotate with the tethered drone during the self-rotation of the tethered drone. The rotation of the tethered drone relative to the rocker will not affect the connection position of the rocker, and will not cause the angle of the rocker to change. Therefore, it is not easy for the tethering rope to deviate from the connection position, which is further conducive to accurately sensing the positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle. A unidirectional angle detection component is provided to realize the detection of angle in a single direction, improve the accuracy of angle detection, and detect the rotation angle of the first rocker arm through the angle sensing component, and then realize the detection of the rotation angle of the rocker.

[0016] In order to achieve the second objective of the present invention, the present invention provides a tethered drone for improving the safety of the drone, comprising an angle moving device.

[0017] In order to achieve the third objective of the present invention, the present invention provides a tethered drone system for improving the safety of the drone, comprising a ground control device and a tethered drone.

[0018] It can be seen from the above scheme that the angle moving device of the present invention is applied to a tethered drone, and the threading hole is used to thread the tethering rope. Since the tethered drone often changes its flight posture during flight, it is easy to perform rotation actions at different angles. However, the end of the tethering rope that is pulled to the ground (generally connected to the vehicle, and the tethered drone follows the vehicle to fly) often does not rotate, which causes the tethering rope to easily twist, affecting the normal flight of the tethered drone; and in this technical scheme, it is necessary to sense the position relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the tethering rope, and then determine the flight direction and speed of the tethered drone. If the tethering rope twists, it is easy for the tethering rope to deviate from the connection position, which is easy to cause the tethered drone to have a large error in the angle detection of the tethering rope, resulting in a deviation in the position recognition of the bottom vehicle by the tethered drone, causing the tethered drone to be unable to perform good coordinated movement with the bottom vehicle; the present invention, through the structural design of the angle moving device, on the one hand, Since the tethered rope is inserted into the rocker, the tethered drone can sense the positional relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the rocker, so that the tethered drone can follow the vehicle. In this way, even if the tethered rope is slightly twisted, it will not affect the angle of the rocker, and will not cause angle detection errors. The angle of the rocker can better reflect the relative positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, which is conducive to accurately sensing the positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle; on the other hand, due to the design of the slip ring and the bearing, the rocker is not easy to rotate with the tethered drone during the rotation of the tethered drone. The rotation of the tethered drone relative to the rocker will not affect the connection position of the rocker, and will not cause the angle of the rocker to change. Therefore, it is not easy for the tethered rope to deviate from the connection position, which is further conducive to accurately sensing the positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle. A unidirectional angle detection component is provided to realize the detection of angle in a single direction, improve the accuracy of angle detection, and detect the rotation angle of the first rocker arm through the angle sensing component, and then realize the detection of the rotation angle of the rocker.

The driving member 9111 extends from the first rocker arm 911 toward the first return center pressure sheet 914, which is conducive to the driving member 9111 to fully drive the return center pressure sheet to move.

The driving member 9111 extends from the first rocker arm 911 toward the first rocker arm 914, so that the driving member 9111 can fully drive the rocker arm 914 to move the rocker arm 914. The rocker arm 914 is in a state of being centered when the angle sensor 92 senses the external force. The elastic member 912 is connected between the first rocker arm 914 and the second rocker arm 915, so that the elastic force between the two rocker arm 914 is consistent, thereby improving the accuracy of the return to center and the accuracy of the angle sensor 92 in detecting the rotation angle of the first rocker arm 911.

[0045] In this embodiment, the conductive slip ring 8 is fixed to the mounting block 22 in the mounting seat 2 through the housing 83 and the fixing frame 84, the second connection end 81 of the conductive slip ring 8 is electrically connected to the drone, the first connection end 82 of the conductive slip ring 8 is electrically connected to the tethering rope 4, one end of the coil spring 7 is sleeved on the first connection end 82, the other end of the coil spring 7 is sleeved on the shaft sleeve 33 on the rocker 3, the shaft sleeve 33 is provided with a spiral groove 331, the other end of the coil spring 7 is engaged in the spiral groove 331, the mounting block 22 and the mounting base 21 are provided with mounting holes, the spherical bearing 51 is installed in the mounting hole, and the mounting base 2 1 and the mounting block 22 are provided with mounting grooves on the periphery of the mounting hole, the joint bearing 51 is limitedly matched with the mounting groove, the first retaining spring 61 is clamped with the axial upper end face of the inner ring 512 of the joint bearing 51, and the second retaining spring 62 is clamped with the axial lower end face of the inner ring 512 of the joint bearing 51, the joint bearing 51 is penetrated with a rocker 3, the mooring rope 4 passes through the inner ring 512 of the joint bearing through the threading hole 31 in the rocker 3, the fixing block 23 is installed below the mounting base 21, the fixing block 23 is penetrated with a fixing hole, the fixing block 23 is provided with a fixing peripheral wall along the periphery of the fixing hole, and the rocker 3 passes through the fixing hole. The mounting base 21 is provided with mounting holes around the mounting block 22, and two unidirectional angle detection components 9 are respectively arranged in the mounting holes, one unidirectional angle detection component 9 includes a return center component 91 and an angle sensor component 92, and a limit fence 925 is arranged between the return center component 91 and the angle sensor component 92.

[0046] The angle sensing assembly 92 is used to detect the rotation angle of the first rocker arm 911. The angle sensing assembly 92 includes an angle sensor 921, a second rocker arm 922, a driving gear 923 and a driven gear 924. The driving gear 923 and the driven gear 924 are meshed with each other. The second rocker arm 922 and the first rocker arm 911 are coaxially arranged for rotation. A limit bar 925 is arranged between the second rocker arm 922 and the first rocker arm 911. The rocker arm 3 passes through the limit bar 925. The movement of the mooring rope 4 drives the rocker arm 3 to move, and the limit bar 925 moves accordingly. Through the limit bar 925, the angle sensor 921 converts the deflection angle of the first rocker arm 911 into the deflection amount of the potentiometer. In addition, the gear transmission ratio is adjusted to adjust the speed of the potentiometer offset, thereby adjusting the execution and feedback speeds. In addition to this embodiment, the angle moving device 1 can also adopt a unidirectional angle detection component 9. The angle sensor in the angle sensing component can also be set on the first rocker arm to directly detect the angle of the first rocker arm. A potentiometer or angle encoder can also be used to detect the angle, or other conventional angle sensors such as optical fiber sensors, grating sensors, etc. can be used to achieve the acquisition of the above-mentioned angle.

[0047] Two one-way angle detection components 9 are adjacently arranged on 21, the return-to-center component 91 of one one-way angle detection component 9 is opposite to the angle sensing component 92, the return-to-center components 91 of the two one-way angle detection components 9 are adjacent, the two limit bars 925 form a "well" shape, and the rocker 3 and the mooring rope 4 both pass through the two limit bars 925.

[0048] It can be seen from the above scheme that when the rocker 3 is not driven by external force, under the action of the elastic member 912, the first back middle pressure piece 914 and the second back middle pressure piece 915 are both in contact with the limit block 9131, and the driving member 9111 is adjacent to the first back middle pressure piece 914 and the second back middle pressure piece 915 respectively.

By setting the limit bar 925, the rotation range of the rocker 3 is limited, thereby preventing damage to the rocker arm. The rocker 3 is connected by the joint bearing 51, and the threading hole 31 is used to penetrate the rocker 3, so that the mooring rope 4 can swing along the axial direction after passing through the rocker 3, so that the deflection force in each direction is uniform, thereby effectively improving the angle monitoring accuracy. In addition, the retaining spring assembly 5 is used to achieve quick and easy assembly and disassembly. The first retaining spring 61 and the second retaining spring 62 are limited at both axial ends of the rocker 3, so as to achieve a stable connection with the joint bearing 51. Furthermore, the mounting seat 2 is used to achieve stable installation. The fixed peripheral wall of the fixed block 23 limits the rotation of the rocker 3, and then limits the rotation stroke of the rocker 3 to avoid damage to the angle moving device 1. At the same time, a unidirectional angle detection assembly 9 is provided to achieve single-direction angle monitoring and improve the accuracy of angle monitoring. The rotation angle of the first rocker arm 911 is detected by the angle sensing assembly 92, so as to achieve the detection of the rotation angle of the rocker 3. The tethered drone receives the rotation angle signal of the rocker 3, so as to achieve the following effect of the tethered drone.

[0049] The second embodiment of the tethered drone system of the present invention:

[0050] Reference Fig.12 and Fig.13 Based on the basic concept of the first embodiment, the spherical bearing 51 of the present invention can also be replaced by an angular contact ball bearing 52, or the spiral spring 7 can be replaced by a coupling 71, which can easily achieve the purpose of anti-twisting.

[0051] The conductive slip ring 8 is fixed on the mounting base 21 through the housing 83 and the fixing frame 84. The first connection end 82 of the conductive slip ring 8 is electrically connected to the drone, and the second connection end 81 of the conductive slip ring 8 is electrically connected to the mooring rope 4. The coupling 71 includes an upper seat and a lower seat. The upper seat is fixed on the first connection end 82, and the lower seat is fixed on the rocker 3. A threading hole 31 is provided in the rocker 3, and the mooring rope 4 passes through the threading hole 31. A limit block 41 is provided at the upper end of the mooring rope 4, and the limit block is located on the rocker 3. The rocker 3 is provided on the mounting base 21. An angular contact ball bearing 52 is provided between the lower seat and the mounting base 21, and the rocker 3 passes through the angular contact ball bearing 52. Two clamping grooves 32 are also provided on the rocker 3. The first clamping spring 61 and the second clamping spring are respectively matched with one clamping groove 32. The clamping spring can realize quick and easy assembly and disassembly, and limit the axial ends of the rocker 3 at the same time, thereby improving stability.

[0052] The angle moving device of the present invention is applied to a tethered drone, and the threading hole is used to thread the tethering rope. Since the tethered drone often changes its flight posture during flight, it is easy to perform rotation movements at different angles. However, the end of the tethering rope that is pulled to the ground (generally connected to the vehicle, and the tethered drone follows the vehicle in flight) often does not rotate, which causes the tethering rope to easily twist, affecting the normal flight of the tethered drone; and in this technical solution, it is necessary to sense the positional relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the tethering rope, and then determine the flight direction and speed of the tethered drone. If the tethering rope twists, it is easy for the tethering rope to deviate from the connection position, which can easily cause the tethered drone to have a large error in detecting the angle of the tethering rope. The present invention adopts the structural design of the angle moving device. On the one hand, since the tethering rope is passed through the rocker, the tethered drone can sense the position relationship between the ground vehicle and the tethered drone by detecting the angle of the rocker, so as to realize the tethered drone following the vehicle. In this way, even if the tethering rope is slightly twisted, it will not affect the angle of the rocker, and will not cause angle detection error. The angle of the rocker can better reflect the relative position relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, which is conducive to accurately sensing the position relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle.

[0053] On the other hand, due to the design of the slip ring and the bearing, the rocker is not easy to rotate with the tethered drone during its rotation. The rotation of the tethered drone relative to the rocker will not affect the connection position of the rocker and will not cause the angle of the rocker to change. Therefore, it is not easy for the tethering rope to deviate from the connection position, which is further conducive to accurately sensing the positional relationship between the tethered drone and the vehicle, and is conducive to better realizing the tethered drone following the vehicle. A one-way angle detection component is provided to realize the detection of angle in a single direction, improve the accuracy of angle detection, and detect the rotation angle of the first rocker arm through the angle sensing component, and then realize the detection of the rotation angle of the rocker.
