Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of drone parking device technology, and more particularly to a drone hangar. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the Internet and the Internet of Things, drones have been widely used in many fields of modern society, such as forestry, power grids, marine areas, and surveying. Drones can perform tasks such as reconnaissance, detection, and inspection. For example, they can be used in scenarios where no one is around for extended periods but drone operations are still required, such as monitoring and inspecting fixed areas. Therefore, drone hangars are needed for these scenarios so that drones can monitor and inspect the surrounding area from the hangar's center. The hangars also enable fully automated take-off and landing, charging, battery replacement, and payload handling for drones.
[0003] However, the current drone hangars on the market are quite large, especially for fixed-wing or compound-wing drones. Therefore, in sparsely populated areas with poor road conditions, usually unpaved roads, it is impossible to directly transport and hoist the entire hangar using medium to large transport vehicles and cranes, resulting in high deployment costs and even having to abandon deployment altogether. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address at least one problem existing in the prior art, according to one aspect of the present invention, a drone hangar is provided, comprising: a support structure for parking drones, including a plurality of support modules detachably connected to each other; a top cover for covering the support structure, including a plurality of sub-covers detachably connected to each other; and a drive structure detachably connected between the support modules, at least for driving each of the sub-covers to move relative to the support modules to cover or expose the drone.
[0005] By configuring the support structure for parking the drone as a series of detachably connected support modules, and configuring the top cover as a series of detachably connected sub-covers, the following advantages are achieved:
[0006] (1) Each support module and each cover can have a small volume, making it easy to transport to remote areas using smaller transport vehicles and then assemble them after reaching the destination; by setting a detachable drive structure between the support modules, the drive structure can at least drive the cover to rotate relative to the support module, so as to cover or expose the drone, so as to protect the drone from storms when it is not in use, or to expose the drone for flight when it needs to be used.
[0007] (2) Since both the support structure and the top cover are made up of multiple detachable parts, during assembly, the number of support modules and the top cover can be adjusted according to the model of the UAV. For example, when it is necessary to park a small multi-rotor UAV, a smaller number of support modules and the top cover can be used to assemble the UAV to accommodate its size; when it is necessary to park a large fixed-wing UAV or a compound-wing UAV, a larger number of support modules and the top cover can be used to assemble the UAV to accommodate its size. Therefore, the fact that both the support structure and the top cover are made up of multiple detachable parts has greater adaptability.
[0008] (3) Since the support structure includes multiple support modules that can be detachably connected to each other, the support modules can be connected to each other during assembly. The top cover includes multiple separate covers that can be detachably connected to each other. When the top covers are connected, they can also be connected to each other, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the UAV hangar after assembly.
[0009] In some embodiments, the drive structure includes multiple rotation drive modules and multiple centering drive modules. The rotation drive modules are used to drive the cover to rotate, and the centering drive modules are used to drive the UAV parked on the support module to move, so as to adjust the parking position of the UAV.
[0010] In some embodiments, the plurality of support modules include N support groups, the plurality of cover panels include M cover panels, the centering drive module is disposed between each pair of adjacent support groups, and each support group is provided with the rotation drive module; wherein, N, M=1, 2, 3...
[0011] In some embodiments, the support group includes a first support module, a second support module, and n1 third support modules disposed between the first support module and the second support module; the rotation drive module is disposed between the first support module and the third support module, and / or between two adjacent third support modules, and / or between the third support module and the second support module; the centering drive module is disposed between two adjacent first support modules and / or between two adjacent second support modules; the cover group includes a first sub-cover, a second sub-cover, and n2 third sub-covers disposed between the first sub-cover and the second sub-cover; wherein, n1=n2=0, 1, 2, 3...
[0012] In some embodiments, the cover is provided with a first positioning hole and / or a first positioning post to achieve a detachable connection between the covers through the first positioning hole and the first positioning post.
[0013] In some embodiments, each of the support modules is equipped with electrical components, and the electrical components installed in each support module may be the same or different.
[0014] In some embodiments, the drone hangar further includes an adjustment platform that is detachably mounted on top of each of the support modules.
[0015] In some embodiments, the adjustment platform includes multiple support plates that are detachably connected to each other.
[0016] In some embodiments, the bottom of the support plate is provided with an adjusting member for adjusting the levelness of the support plate relative to the support module.
[0017] In some embodiments, the drone hangar further includes multiple magnetic components, each of the support modules, each of the sub-covers, and the drive structure being provided with the magnetic components to enable detachable connections between the support modules, between the sub-covers, and between the support modules and the drive structure.

Detailed Implementation
[0035] To better understand and implement this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0037] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0038] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 15 The unmanned aerial vehicle hangar 100 provided in this embodiment of the invention includes a support structure 10, a top cover 20, and a drive structure 30.
[0040] The support structure 10 is used to park the drone and includes multiple support modules that are detachably connected to each other; the top cover 20 is used to cover the support structure 10 and includes multiple sub-covers that are detachably connected to each other; the drive structure 30 is detachably connected between the support modules and is used to drive the sub-covers to move relative to the support modules to cover or expose the drone.
[0041] The aforementioned drone hangar 100, by configuring the support structure 10 for parking drones as comprising multiple support modules that are detachably connected to each other, and by configuring the top cover 20 as comprising multiple separate covers that are detachably connected to each other, has the following advantages:
[0042] (1) Each support module and each cover can have a small volume, making it easy to transport to remote areas using smaller transport vehicles and then assemble them after reaching the destination; by setting a detachable drive structure 30 between the support modules, the drive structure 30 can at least be used to drive the cover to rotate relative to the support module, so as to shield or expose the drone, so as to protect the drone from storms when it is not in use, or to expose the drone for flight when it needs to be used.
[0043] (2) Since both the support structure 10 and the top cover 20 are composed of multiple detachable parts, during assembly, the number of support modules and top cover 20 can be used to assemble the drone according to its model. For example, when it is necessary to park a small multi-rotor drone, a smaller number of support modules and top cover 20 can be used to assemble the drone to accommodate its size. When it is necessary to park a large fixed-wing drone or compound-wing drone, a larger number of support modules and top cover 20 can be used to assemble the drone to accommodate its size. Therefore, the fact that both the support structure 10 and the top cover 20 are composed of multiple detachable parts has greater adaptability.
[0044] (3) Since the support structure 10 includes multiple support modules that can be detachably connected to each other, the support modules can be connected to each other during assembly. The top cover 20 includes multiple separate covers that can be detachably connected to each other. When the top cover 20 is connected, it can also be connected to each other, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the unmanned aerial vehicle hangar 100 after assembly.
[0045] In this embodiment, the driving structure 30 can drive the cover to move relative to the support structure 10 in the following ways: rotating relative to the support structure 10 to open or cover the drone; moving relative to the support structure 10 in a horizontal translation manner to open or cover the drone; or driving the cover to flip relative to the support structure 10 to open or cover the drone. The movement mode of the cover can be set according to actual needs.
[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the drive structure 30 drives the cover to rotate in order to cover or expose the drone.
[0047] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 8 In this embodiment, the entire top cover 20 and the supporting structure 10 enclose a parking space for the drone. Each sub-cover is an upwardly arched structure, thus creating a parking space for the drone between the top surface of the entire top cover 20 and the top surface of the supporting structure 10 when they are closed. In other embodiments, when the sub-covers are driven to cover or expose the drone by horizontal translation or flipping, a drone placement space can be formed within the supporting structure 10. The sub-covers are closed or opened by horizontal translation or flipping, thereby achieving the covering or exposure of the drone.
[0048] Please see Figures 2 to 7 as well as Figure 12In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to ensure that the drone can be parked in an accurate position, the drive structure 30 of this embodiment includes multiple rotation drive modules 31 and multiple centering drive modules 32. The rotation drive modules 31 are used to drive the cover to rotate, and the centering drive modules 32 are used to drive the drone parked on the support module to move relative to the support module, so as to adjust the parking position of the drone. In this way, the drive structure 30 not only drives the cover to rotate to cover or expose the drone, but also drives the drone parked on the support module to slide on the support module, thereby accurately adjusting the parking position of the drone, for example, accurately parking at the charging point or signal transmission point; at the same time, by installing the drive components for driving the cover to close and driving the drone to center on different modules, it is convenient to install the internal structure of each drive module and avoid interference when they are installed in the same module. In other embodiments, the driving component that drives the cover to rotate and the driving component that drives the drone to center can be set on the same driving motion module. This allows for convenient installation of the driving structure 30 between the support modules, without the need to distinguish between different driving functions to install the driving motion module, thus improving the ease of installation.
[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, the rotation drive module 31 is used to drive the cover to rotate by having a rotating arm 311 on it. One end of the rotating arm 311 rotates relative to the rotation drive module 31 via a rotating shaft 312, and the other end of the rotating arm 311 is rotatably connected to the cover. The rotation drive module 31 is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the rotating arm 311, such as a drive motor and a gear transmission structure. In this way, the rotation of the rotating arm 311 is driven to rotate the cover to cover or expose the drone.
[0050] Specifically, please refer to Figures 2 to 7 as well as Figure 13 In this embodiment, the centering drive module 32 is used to drive the drone to slide on the support structure 10. Specifically, the centering drive module 32 is provided with a centering rod 321 and a centering groove 322. Inside the centering drive module 32, there is a drive mechanism for driving the centering rod 321, such as a drive motor and gear transmission structure, which is connected to one end of the centering rod 321 to drive the centering rod 321 to make linear reciprocating motion in the centering groove 322, so as to drive the centering of the drone and the reset of the centering rod 321.
[0051] Corresponding to the drive structure 30 including a rotation drive module 31 and a centering drive module 32, the multiple support modules in this embodiment include N support groups 11, and the multiple covers include M closing groups 21. The centering drive module 32 is located between two support groups 11. Each support group 11 is provided with a rotation drive module 31, where N, M = 1, 2, 3... In this way, the rotation drive module 31 located in the support group 11 drives the closing group 21 to rotate, so as to open or close the support group 11.
[0052] Specifically, in this embodiment, N=M, meaning one cover group 21 corresponds to one support group 11. One cover group 21 is used to cover or open one support group 11, thereby enabling each of these groups to have a small volume. In other embodiments, N>M can be set, so that one cover group 21 can cover or open at least two support groups 11, thereby reducing the number of cover groups, i.e., reducing the number of separate covers.
[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, N=M=2, that is, the drone hangar 100 in this embodiment includes two support groups 11 and two cover groups 21, with one cover group 21 corresponding to one support group 11.
[0054] Specifically, the support assembly 11 in this embodiment includes a first support module 12, a second support module 13, and n1 third support modules 14 disposed between the first support module 12 and the second support module 13; a rotation drive module 31 is disposed between the first support module 12 and the third support modules 14, and / or between two adjacent third support modules 14, and / or between the third support module 14 and the second support module 13; a centering drive module 32 is disposed between two adjacent first support modules 12 and / or between two adjacent second support modules 13; the cover assembly 21 includes a first split cover 22, a second split cover 23, and... And n2 third covers 24 are provided between the first cover 22 and the second cover 23, and the third covers 24 are set corresponding to the third support module 14; where n1=n2=0, 1, 2, 3... In this way, by adjusting the number of the third support module 14 and the third covers 24, the extension length of the support structure 10 along the first direction a can be adjusted, so that the length of the support structure 10 of different lengths can be assembled according to different UAV models, and by adjusting the number of the third covers 24, the cooperation between them and the first cover 22 and the second cover 23 can be achieved, so that the length corresponding to the support structure 10 can be sealed.
[0055] Please see Figures 1 to 8The diagram below shows the structure of a drone hangar 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, n1=1, that is, a third support module 14 is provided between the first support module 12 and the second support module 13. Correspondingly, n2=1, that is, a third sub-cover 24 is provided between the first sub-cover 22 and the second sub-cover 23. At this time, two rotation drive modules 31 are provided in a support group 11. Specifically, a rotation drive module 31 is provided between the first support module 12 and the third support module 14 and between the second support module 13 and the third support module 14. Both rotation drive modules 31 are rotatably connected to a cover assembly 21. Specifically, a rotating arm 311 is connected to the first sub-cover 22 and the third sub-cover 24 on both sides along the first direction a, or both are connected to the second sub-cover 23 and the third sub-cover 24. In this way, the first sub-cover 22, the second sub-cover 23 and the third sub-cover 24 are driven as a whole to rotate by the two rotation drive modules 31.
[0056] At this time, the centering drive module 32 is positioned between the two first support modules 12 and / or between the two third support modules 14 to drive the drone to slide, thereby achieving centering. Specifically, to ensure the accuracy of the drone's position adjustment when parked, centering drive modules 32 are simultaneously provided between the two first support modules 12 and between the two third support modules 14, so as to achieve the centering drive movement through the two centering drive modules 32 and realize the precise adjustment of the drone's parking position.
[0057] Understandably, since the length of the drone hangar 100 in this embodiment along the first direction a is relatively long, it can accommodate the parking of larger fixed-wing drones or compound-wing drones.
[0058] Please see Figure 14 and Figure 15 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a drone hangar 100 according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, n1=0, that is, the drone hangar 100 in this embodiment only has a first support module 12 and a second support module 13. The first support module 12 and the second support module 13 are provided with a rotation drive module 31. Correspondingly, n2=0, and the cover assembly 21 only includes a first sub-cover 22 and a second sub-cover 23. The rotation drive module 31 is connected to the first sub-cover 22 and the second sub-cover 23 on both sides along the first direction a. In this way, the rotational movement of the cover assembly 21 is driven by a rotation drive module 31. Correspondingly, as in the previous embodiment, a centering drive module 32 can be provided between the first support module 12 and between the second support module 13 of the two support assemblies 11 to achieve centering of the drone parking.
[0059] Understandably, since the third support module 14 is not used in this embodiment, the length of the support structure 10 along the first direction a is relatively short. The support structure 10 in this embodiment can be used to park a small multi-rotor UAV.
[0060] It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the production and assembly of the drone hangar 100, the first support module 12 and the second support module 13 can be in a mirror structure relationship and are applied to both ends when assembling the drone hangar 100; correspondingly, the first cover 22 and the second cover 23 are also in a mirror structure relationship and are applied to both ends of the drone hangar 100.
[0061] Understandably, please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 Since drones need to charge or transmit data when parked, each support module in this embodiment is equipped with electrical components. For example, an environmental control device, such as an air conditioner, can be installed in the first support module 12 to control the temperature in the entire drone hangar 100. Corresponding to the installation of electrical components in the first support module 12, the first support module 12 can be provided with a pipe opening 121 to send out the cold or hot air delivered by the air conditioner through the pipe opening 121.
[0062] Furthermore, since signal transmission or electrical connection is required between the various support modules and the drive motion module, the first support module 12 may also be provided with a cable passage 122 for cable to pass through. Alternatively, in other embodiments, an electrical connector can be directly installed at the cable passage 122 to achieve rapid electrical connection between the various support modules by interlocking the electrical connectors.
[0063] The second support module 13 can be equipped with the same electrical components as the first support module 12, or it can be equipped with its own electrical components. For example, a backup power supply or signal transmission device, such as an infrared transmitter, can be installed inside the second support module 13 to locate the position of the drone so as to adjust the position of the drone when it is parked.
[0064] The third support module 14 is located between the first support module 12 and the second support module 13. PLC and other electrical control equipment or backup power supply equipment can be installed inside to realize the control and power supply of the UAV.
[0065] It should be noted that the electrical components installed inside the first support module 12, the second support module 13, and the third support module 14 can be of the same type or different from each other. They can have overlapping electrical components or their own distinct components, and adjustments can be made according to actual needs; this is not limited here. Furthermore, the electrical connections between the electrical components of each support module can be made via cables or by using connectors for quick electrical connection.
[0066] Please refer to Figures 9 to 11 Since each support module has a certain weight, to facilitate the handling of each support module, a roller 15 is provided at the bottom of each support module to pull the support module. Understandably, to avoid interference from the roller 15 during installation and thus affecting the assembly of the support modules, the roller 15 is located at one end of each support module along the second direction b, i.e., the end where the support modules are furthest apart from each other. Understandably, to ensure stable support for each support module and to cooperate with the roller 15, a support column 16 is provided at the bottom of each support module. The support column 16 cooperates with the roller 15 to achieve stable support for each support module.
[0067] Furthermore, to facilitate the handling of each module, the support module is equipped with a first handle 17, so that the movement of each module can be driven by pulling the first handle 17.
[0068] Specifically, please refer to Figures 5 to 13To achieve the detachable connection between the various support modules, the sub-covers, and the support modules and drive structure in this embodiment, the UAV hangar 100 also includes multiple magnetic components 40. Each support module, sub-cover, and drive structure is equipped with a magnetic component 40 to achieve detachable connection between the support modules, the sub-covers, and the support modules and drive structure 30. Thus, by providing magnetic components 40 in each support structure 10, each sub-cover, and each support module and drive structure, detachable connection between the support modules, the sub-covers, and the support modules and drive structure 30 can be achieved. At the same time, by setting the magnetic components 40, when the support modules, sub-covers, and support modules and drive structure 30 are connected, the magnetic components 40 can attract each other, giving each other a strong adsorption force, ensuring the connection stability between the support modules, sub-covers, and support modules and drive structure 30. In other embodiments, the various support modules, the various covers, and the support modules and the drive structure 30 can be detachably connected by snap-fit or plug-in methods, which can also achieve quick assembly and disassembly; or in other embodiments, on the basis of the initial positioning and installation by plug-in or snap-fit, magnetic components 40 are also provided to ensure the assembly stability between the various modules; or in other embodiments, on the basis of the initial positioning and installation by plug-in or snap-fit, they can be further connected by bolts to ensure the assembly stability between the various modules.
[0069] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the magnetic component 40 is installed in each support module, each cover and the drive module, a first mounting groove 123 is provided on the support module and a second mounting groove 313 is provided on the drive module, so as to accommodate the magnetic component 40 through the mounting groove and realize the connection between the support modules and between the support module and the drive module.
[0070] Understandably, in order to ensure a stable connection between each support module and the drive module, a first mounting slot 123 can be provided in multiple directions in each support module to allow multiple magnetic elements 40 to be installed within the support block; and a second mounting slot 313 can be provided in multiple directions in each drive module to allow multiple magnetic elements 40 to be installed within the drive module, thereby increasing the connection stability between support modules and between support modules and drive modules through multiple magnetic elements 40.
[0071] Furthermore, to facilitate the positioning and installation of the first support module 12, the second support module 13, and the third support module 14 with the rotation drive module 31, the rotation drive module 31 is provided with a first positioning protrusion 314, and each support module is provided with a matching groove 124. When the rotation drive module 31 is installed with the third support module 14, the first support module 12, and the second support module 13, the first positioning protrusion 314 can be inserted into the matching groove 124, thereby achieving accurate installation between the rotation drive module 31 and the third support module 14, the first support module 12, and the second support module 13, and improving installation efficiency.
[0072] Understandably, in order to facilitate the installation of the magnetic component 40, a second mounting groove 313 can also be provided in the first positioning protrusion 314 to place the magnetic component 40 in the first positioning protrusion 314. When the rotation drive module 31 and the support module are positioned and assembled, the mutual attraction between the rotation drive module 31 and the support module is also realized, and a stable connection between them is achieved.
[0073] Understandably, please refer to Figure 8 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate the assembly between the various sub-caps, each sub-cap is provided with a mounting hole 25, and a magnetic component 40 is pre-embedded in the mounting hole 25 to increase the connection stability between the various sub-caps.
[0074] Furthermore, to facilitate rapid assembly between the various covers, the covers can be provided with a first positioning hole 211 and a first positioning post 241, so as to achieve a detachable connection between the covers through the first positioning hole 211 and the first positioning post 241. That is, one cover can be provided with a first positioning post 241 and another cover can be provided with a first positioning hole 211, so as to achieve the alignment and installation of the covers and the detachable connection between the covers through the insertion of the first positioning post 241 and the first positioning hole 211; or each cover can be provided with both a first positioning hole 211 and a first positioning post 241, so as to ensure the stability of the covers during installation.
[0075] Specifically, in this embodiment, the third cover 24 is provided with positioning posts 211 on both sides along the second direction b, and the first cover 22 and the second cover 23 are provided with positioning holes 241 on the side facing the third cover 24, so as to realize the insertion and installation of the first cover 22 and the second cover 23 with the third cover 24 respectively.
[0076] Please see Figures 2 to 4In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to enable the drone to be stably parked on top of the support structure 10, the drone hangar 100 further includes an adjustment platform 50, which is detachably installed on top of each support module. In this way, by setting the adjustment platform 50, the surface supporting the drone can be on a flat surface, ensuring the stability of the drone parking.
[0077] Specifically, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 In order to adjust the transfer of platform 50 and the relationship between the support modules, platform 50 also includes multiple support plates. Each support plate is detachably connected. In this way, by setting multiple support plates, the support plates are separated to facilitate transportation and subsequent assembly.
[0078] Corresponding to the structure of the first support module 12, the second support module 13 and the third support module 14 in this embodiment, the multiple support plates in this embodiment are also divided into two support groups. Each support group consists of a first support plate 51, a second support plate 52 and n3 third support plates 53. The number of third support plates 53 is adjusted according to the number of third support modules 14.
[0079] Furthermore, in order to ensure the connection stability between the various support plates, the support plates are detachably connected. Specifically, the third support plate 53 is provided with second positioning posts 531 on both sides along the first direction a, and the first support plate 51 and the second support plate 52 are provided with second positioning holes 511 on the side facing the third support plate 53. In this way, the third support module 14 can be quickly assembled with the first support module 12 and the second support module 13 by inserting the second positioning posts 531 and the second positioning holes 511.
[0080] In addition, to ensure the connection stability between the various support plates and the stable connection with the support module, each support plate can be provided with a plug-in slot, and a magnetic component 40 can be pre-embedded in the plug-in slot. The attraction between the magnetic components 40 can ensure the stable connection between the various support plates and the stable connection with the support module.
[0081] Furthermore, since the support module is assembled in a remote mountainous area, and the ground is uneven, an adjustment component 512 is provided at the bottom of the support plate to ensure the levelness of the support plate for the drone. The adjustment component 512 is used to adjust the levelness of the support plate relative to the support module. In this way, the plane height of the support plate on the support module is adjusted by adjusting the adjustment component 512 to adjust the levelness of the support plate.
[0082] Specifically, in this embodiment, the adjusting component 512 is an adjusting bolt. A fixing hole 125 is provided at the top of the support module. The adjusting bolt is inserted into the fixing hole 125 to realize the installation of the support plate. At the same time, by turning the adjusting bolt, the levelness of the support plate installed on the top of the support module is adjusted.
[0083] The aforementioned drone hangar 100, by configuring the support structure 10 as multiple detachably connected support modules, allows each support module to have a small volume, facilitating transport to remote mountainous areas. Furthermore, the number of support modules to be assembled can be adjusted according to the different drone models being parked, enabling the drone hangar to have varying parking areas. The top cover 20 is configured as multiple separate covers, which not only facilitates installation but also allows for adjustment of the assembly method of the separate covers according to the assembly method of the support modules, thus achieving complete coverage of the hangar assembled from the support modules. By installing support plates on top of the support modules, the flatness of the support plates can be adjusted to ensure the drones are level after parking.
[0084] The technical means disclosed in this invention are not limited to those disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this invention, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this invention.
