DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] The embodiment of the present application provides a deformable unmanned combat platform to solve the problem in the related art that it is difficult to balance normal land combat and air combat.

[0034] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 A deformable unmanned combat platform includes a platform 1, a weapon assembly 2, a deformable beam 3, a walking device 4 and a deformable driving member 5.

[0035] The bottom of the platform 1 is provided with a weapon assembly 2, and mounting parts 100 are provided on both sides thereof, and the mounting parts 100 are arranged along the length direction of the platform 1 and perpendicular to the platform 1. Two deformable beams 3 are arranged symmetrically about the central axis of the platform 1; the deformable beam 3 includes two supporting beams 300 arranged along the length direction of the platform 1; the two supporting beams 300 are arranged opposite to each other, and the ends close to each other are hinged, and the ends away from each other are hinged with a walking device 4; one of the supporting beams 300 in the deformable beam 3 is connected to the mounting part 100.

[0036] The deformation driving member 5 is connected to the two supporting beams 300 and is used to adjust the angle between the two supporting beams 300 to change the posture of the platform 1 .

[0037] Through the above arrangement, since the deformable beam 3 is connected to the mounting parts 100 on both sides of the platform 1 and is symmetrically arranged; the deformable beam 3 includes two supporting beams 300 arranged along the length direction of the platform 1, the two supporting beams 300 are arranged oppositely, and the ends close to each other are hinged, and the ends away from each other are hinged with a walking device 4; one of the supporting beams in the deformable beam 3 is connected to the mounting part 100; the deformable driving member 5 is connected to the two supporting beams 300 and is used to adjust the angle between the two supporting beams 300. When in use, the platform 1 is kept horizontal during normal marching and combat on land; when air combat is required, the deformable driving member 5 adjusts the angle between the two supporting beams 300. Since each supporting beam 300 has two hinge points, when the angle changes, the platform 1 faces the sky at a certain elevation angle, and the weapon assembly 2 faces the air; when walking is required, the walking device 4 is used to move, thereby taking into account the needs of normal land combat and air combat.

[0038] In some preferred embodiments, the specific structure of the deformation driving member 5 changing and adjusting the angle between the two supporting beams 300 is described as follows:

[0039] A mounting groove 301 is provided at the top of a supporting beam 300 in the deformable beam 3 and above the walking device 4;

[0040] The deformation driving member 5 includes a telescopic rod 500 and a mounting oblique block 501; the mounting oblique block 501 is mounted on another support beam 300 and is close to the hinge position of the two support beams 300; one end of the telescopic rod 500 is hinged in the mounting groove 301, and the other end is hinged to the mounting oblique block 501, so that the telescopic rod 500, the mounting oblique block 501 and the support beam 300 provided with the mounting groove 301 are connected in a triangle;

[0041] When the telescopic rod 500 is in a retracted state, the tops of the two support beams 300 are located on the same horizontal plane, and the platform 1 is set horizontally; when the telescopic rod 500 is in an extended state, the tops of the two support beams 300 are not located on the same horizontal plane, the platform 1 is set tilted, and the angle between the telescopic rod 500 and the mounting bevel block 501 in the triangle changes.

[0042] Since each supporting beam 300 has two upper and lower intersection points, when the length of the telescopic rod 500 changes, the two supporting beams 300 change relative to each other, and the posture of the platform 1 changes.

[0043] It should be understood that the deformation driving member 5 may be located between the angles of the two support beams 300 .

[0044] Furthermore, in order to obtain a larger air angle, the following settings are made:

[0045] The mounting portion 100 is provided with a first slide groove 101 arranged along the length direction of the platform 1; the supporting beam 300 corresponding to the mounting portion 100 is provided with a second slide groove 302 and a slide rod 6, and the second slide groove 302 extends along the length direction of the platform 1; the slide rod 6 passes through the second slide groove 302 and extends into the first slide groove 101; a locking moving device is installed on the slide rod 6.

[0046] Among them, the locking moving device includes two gears coaxially fixed at both ends of the sliding rod 6; a driving motor is coaxially connected to one of the gears; a horizontal rack meshing with the gears is provided in the first sliding groove 101 and the second sliding groove 302, and the diameter of the gear is smaller than the width of the first sliding groove 101 and the second sliding groove 302.

[0047] When a larger elevation angle is required, refer to Figure 3 The driving motor is used to drive the slide bar 6 to rotate, and the gear rotates to move on the horizontal rack, so that the slide bar 6 moves in the first slide groove 101 and the second slide groove 302, and moves forward relatively, so that the elevation angle of the platform 1 is further increased, and a large elevation angle of 60° to 70° anti-aircraft shooting can be achieved. The driving motor is a private server encoding motor with a self-locking mechanism.

[0048] In some preferred embodiments, a reinforcing cross bar 12 is provided between the two deformable beams 3, so that the two deformable beams 3 form a complete frame structure, thereby increasing the stability of the structure.

[0049] In some preferred embodiments, in order to enhance the maneuverability of the platform 1 and its high environmental adaptability, the following settings are provided:

[0050] The walking device 4 includes a supporting shell 400, on which a mounting bracket 401 is symmetrically arranged about its central axis, and on which an electric drive wheel assembly 402 is arranged; a battery compartment is arranged inside the supporting shell 400; a receiving groove 403 is arranged on the top of the supporting shell 400; the electric drive wheel assembly 402 includes a hub motor, a steering cylinder, a mechanical suspension, a braking device, etc., and reference may be made to the structure of other walking trolleys.

[0051] refer to Figure 5 A coupling 7 is provided on the support beam 300, and a cross pin 8 is provided on the coupling 7. The cross pin 8 is hinged on the support shell 400 and is located in the accommodating groove 403, which gives the specific hinge structure of the support beam 300 and the walking device 4.

[0052] Through the above settings, an integrated all-electric drive module design is adopted. Each drive module is independent of each other and driven in a coordinated manner with strong power. The all-electric drive mode can reduce noise and infrared signals and improve infrared anti-reconnaissance capabilities. The deformable beam 3 and the front and rear double wheel design have strong field maneuverability and high environmental adaptability.

[0053] In some preferred embodiments, a color-changing camouflage layer 9 is provided on the top of the platform 1. The color-changing camouflage layer 9 can be intelligently camouflaged, easy to optically camouflage, and improve survivability. The upper surface of the platform 1 has a large expandable space, which can be used for transporting materials, etc., and can support human-machine coordinated marching and combat.

[0054] In some preferred embodiments, in order to improve combat capability and communication capability, the following may be referred to:

[0055] A radar control cabin 10 is provided on the bottom surface of the platform 1, and the radar control cabin 10 is connected to a retractable radar 11; the retractable radar 11 passes through the platform 1 and extends above the platform 1; the weapon assembly 2 includes an integrated control system cabin 200, a gun 201, a suspension device 202 and a rocket 203; the integrated control system cabin 200 is fixed on the bottom wall of the platform 1, and the rocket 203 and the gun 201 are connected to the integrated control system cabin 200 through the suspension device 202.

[0056] Through the above settings, an unmanned combat platform is created that takes into account both payload transportation and mobile combat, and has multiple forms and multiple air-to-air launch angles.

[0057] Principles of this application:

[0058] Since the deformable beam 3 is connected to the mounting parts 100 on both sides of the platform 1 and is symmetrically arranged; the deformable beam 3 includes two supporting beams 300 arranged along the length direction of the platform 1, the two supporting beams 300 are arranged opposite to each other, and the ends close to each other are hinged, and the ends away from each other are hinged with a walking device 4; one of the supporting beams in the deformable beam 3 is connected to the mounting part 100; the deformable driving member 5 is connected to the two supporting beams 300 and is used to adjust the angle between the two supporting beams 300. When in use, the platform 1 is kept horizontal during normal marching and fighting on land; when air combat is required, the deformable driving member 5 adjusts the angle between the two supporting beams 300. Since each supporting beam 300 has two hinge points, when the angle changes, the platform 1 is facing the sky at a certain elevation angle, and the weapon assembly 2 is facing the air; when walking is required, the walking device 4 is used to move, thereby taking into account the needs of normal land combat and air combat.
