[0039] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0040] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0041] The wing is the most important component of a drone. The structure of the wing needs to bear the lift, drag and various bending and torsional moments of the drone during flight. The wings of drones are usually made of composite materials, which can provide a certain degree of strength while maintaining a relatively light weight, and can effectively assist the drone in flight.
[0042] In the existing technology, the wings of drones are generally fixed wings. Fixed wings take up a lot of space during storage and transportation, which is inconvenient for storage and transportation. Sometimes the wings need to be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled, which is a complicated operation.
[0043] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below.
[0044] To address the challenges posed by fixed-wing drones, such as their large size and inconvenience during storage and transport, and the complex assembly and disassembly process of fixed wings, as well as other technical issues, such as… Figure 1 As shown, an exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a foldable wing, including a wing body 1 and a foldable wing 2, wherein a folding mechanism is provided between the wing body 1 and the foldable wing 2.
[0045] The folding mechanism includes a telescopic component 3 and a rotating component 4. The first end of the telescopic component 3 is slidably connected to the wing body 1, and the second end of the telescopic component 3 is rotatably connected to the folding wing 2. The first end of the rotating component 4 is fixedly connected to the telescopic component 3, and the second end of the rotating component 4 is fixedly connected to the folding wing 2.
[0046] The telescopic component 3 is used to drive the folding wing 2 and the rotating component 4 to telescopically move relative to the wing body 1. The rotating component 4 is used to flip and fold the folding wing 2.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 A telescopic assembly 3 and a rotating assembly 4 are installed between the wing body 1 and the folding wing 2. When the wing needs to be folded, the telescopic assembly 3 first drives the folding wing 2 and the rotating assembly 4 to extend relative to the wing body 1. That is, the telescopic assembly 3 slides relative to the wing body 1 towards the side closer to the folding wing 2, thereby causing the folding wing 2 to separate from the wing body 1 by a certain distance. Then, the rotating assembly 4 flips and folds the folding wing 2. During the storage and transportation of the drone, the folding wing 2 can be quickly folded directly by the telescopic assembly 3 and the rotating assembly 4, reducing the space occupied by the wing, better avoiding damage to the wing, and eliminating the need for repeated disassembly and assembly of the wing. The operation is simple, and the space occupied when folding the wing is small.
[0048] When the wings need to be extended, the folding wing 2 is first rotated by the rotating component 4 so that the folding wing 2 and the wing body 1 are on the same horizontal plane. Then, the folding wing 2 and the rotating component 4 are retracted relative to the wing body 1 by the telescopic component 3. That is, the telescopic component 3 is slid towards the side closer to the wing body 1, thereby driving the folding wing 2 to dock with the wing body 1.
[0049] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 Two positioning brackets 5 are provided at one end of the folding wing 2 near the wing body 1. The positioning brackets 5 are provided with positioning grooves 501 and fixing holes 502 are provided on the side wall of the positioning grooves 501. The second end of the telescopic component 3 is set in the positioning grooves 501 and is rotatably connected to the fixing holes 502. The rotating component 4 is set between the two positioning brackets 5 and is fixedly connected to the two positioning brackets 5 respectively.
[0050] For example, in Figure 3 In this design, the upper end of the folding wing 2 is the end closest to the wing body 1. Two positioning brackets 5 are installed at the upper end of the folding wing 2, and the telescopic component 3 is snapped into the positioning groove 501 of the positioning brackets 5. Part of the telescopic component 3 is installed in the fixing hole 502. When the rotating component 4 drives the folding wing 2 to flip, part of the telescopic component 3 is installed in the fixing hole 502, so that the telescopic component 3 can rotate relative to the folding wing 2, which facilitates the folding of the wing 2 and reduces the space occupied by the wing.
[0051] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 The telescopic component 3 includes an adjustment plate 301, which is slidably connected to the wing body 1. The first end of the adjustment plate 301 is provided with an installation groove 302. Limiting plates 303 are provided on both sides of the installation groove 302. Positioning shafts 304 are installed on both sides of the limiting plates 303. The positioning shafts 304 are rotatably connected to the fixing holes 502.
[0052] The second end of the adjustment plate 301 is connected to the adjustment component 6. The adjustment component 6 is used to drive the adjustment plate 301 to slide so that the wing body 1 is separated from the folding wing 2. The first end of the adjustment component 6 is fixedly connected to the adjustment plate 301, and the second end of the adjustment component 6 is fixedly connected to the wing body 1.
[0053] For example, refer to Figure 4The left side of the adjustment plate 301 is the first end of the adjustment plate 301. An installation groove 302 is provided on the first side of the adjustment plate 301. In use, the first end of the rotating component 4 is installed in the installation groove 302. Limiting plates 303 are connected to the side walls on both sides of the installation groove 302. The two limiting plates 303 are respectively inserted into the positioning grooves 501 of the two positioning brackets 5 of the folding wing 2. The positioning shaft 304 on the limiting plate 303 is assembled into the fixing hole 502 of the positioning groove 501. The positioning shaft 304 is rotatably connected to the fixing hole 502.
[0054] The adjustment component 6 pushes the adjustment plate 301 to extend outward, and then the adjustment plate 301 pushes the folding wing 2 to extend outward. Then, the rotation component 4 controls the folding wing 2 to flip and fold along the positioning axis 304. The drone with the folded wing occupies less space and is easy to store or transport.
[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the adjustment assembly 6 includes an adjustment screw 601 and a threaded sleeve 602. The threaded sleeve 602 is sleeved on the second end of the adjustment screw 601. The adjustment screw 601 is provided with a first thread 603. The threaded sleeve 602 is provided with a second thread 604 that is adapted to the first thread 603. The threaded sleeve 602 is fixedly connected to the wing body 1. The first end of the adjustment screw 601 is connected to a drive motor 605. The shaft of the drive motor 605 is connected to the adjustment screw 601. The end of the drive motor 605 away from the adjustment screw 601 is fixedly connected to the adjustment plate 301.
[0056] For example, refer to Figure 4 The adjustment component 6 is provided in two sets, one of which is the reference. Figure 6 The right side of the threaded sleeve 602 is fixedly connected to the wing body 1. The left side of the threaded sleeve 602 has an opening. The inside of the threaded sleeve 602 has a second thread 604. The adjusting screw 601 is set inside the threaded sleeve 602 through the opening. The first thread 603 on the adjusting screw 601 is threadedly connected to the second thread 604 of the threaded sleeve 602. The threaded sleeve 602 can be combined with the adjusting screw 601. The shaft of the drive motor 605 is connected to the adjusting screw 601.
[0057] When the drive motor 605 is energized, it drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the adjusting screw 601 to rotate. The rotating adjusting screw 601 moves along the second thread 604 inside the threaded sleeve 602. The adjusting screw 601 is unscrewed from the threaded sleeve 602, which in turn drives the adjusting plate 301 to move. The adjusting plate 301 then drives the folding wing 2 to move away from the wing body 1. The distance between the folding wing 2 and the wing body 1 is adjusted by the length of the adjusting screw 601 unscrewed from the threaded sleeve 602.
[0058] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 A fixed seat 606 is provided on the side of the threaded sleeve 602 away from the adjusting screw 601, and the fixed seat 606 is fixedly connected to the wing body 1.
[0059] By connecting the fixed seat 606 to the wing body 1, the connection between the wing body 1 and the threaded sleeve 602 can be strengthened, ensuring a tighter fit between the wing body 1 and the threaded sleeve 602 and maintaining the stable installation of the threaded sleeve 602.
[0060] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 The wing body 1 is provided with a mounting groove 101. The adjustment plate 301 and the adjustment component 6 are set in the mounting groove 101. The adjustment plate 301 is slidably connected to the mounting groove 101. The fixed seat 606 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 101.
[0061] Reference Figure 1 The adjusting plate 301 and the adjusting component 6 are placed in the mounting groove 101. The mounting groove 101 can restrict the internal adjusting plate 301, allowing the adjusting plate 301 to move along the mounting groove 101. At the same time, it prevents the adjusting component 6 from contacting rainwater or debris from the outside, thereby improving the safety of the component.
[0062] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 Limiting slide rails 305 are provided on both sides of the adjusting plate 301, as shown in the reference. Figure 2 The mounting slide 101 is provided with a limiting slide 102 that is compatible with the limiting slide rail 305.
[0063] Reference Figure 1 The limiting slide rail 305 of the adjusting plate 301 can slide and adjust inside the limiting slide groove 102. The design of the limiting slide rail 305 and the limiting slide groove 102 can increase the stability of the adjusting plate 301, so that it will not sway or move from side to side during the adjustment process, and prevent the adjusting plate 301 from accidentally falling off or sliding during the adjustment process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the adjustment.
[0064] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 The rotating assembly 4 includes a connecting rod 401, a driving rod 402, and a telescopic push rod 403.
[0065] The connecting rod 401 has two ends fixedly connected to a positioning bracket 5. A rotating sleeve 404 is fitted on the connecting rod 401 and is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 401. The first end of the driving rod 402 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating sleeve 404. The telescopic push rod 403 is set in the mounting groove 302. The first end of the telescopic push rod 403 is fixedly connected to the mounting groove 302. The piston rod 405 at the second end of the telescopic push rod 403 is provided with a limiting bracket 406 and is rotatably connected to the second end of the driving rod 402.
[0066] For example, refer to Figure 5 In use, the rotating sleeve 404 is fitted onto the connecting rod 401, allowing the rotating sleeve 404 to rotate on the connecting rod 401. Then, the connecting rod 401 is positioned between the two positioning brackets 5. Figure 1 In the middle section, the left end of the connecting rod 401 is welded to the positioning bracket 5 on the left side, and the right end of the connecting rod 401 is welded to the positioning bracket 5 on the right side. The connecting rod 401 is fixedly connected to the positioning bracket 5, which facilitates the transmission of the force exerted by the telescopic push rod 403 on the drive rod 402 to the connecting rod 401. The rotation of the connecting rod 401 drives the folding wing 2 to flip. The outer side of the rotating sleeve 404 is connected to one end of the drive rod 402, wherein the central axis of the drive rod 402 is perpendicular to the central axis of the rotating sleeve 404. The other end of the drive rod 402 is rotatably connected to the piston rod 405 of the telescopic push rod 403. The telescopic push rod 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 302 of the adjusting plate 301. The telescopic push rod 403 includes a cylinder.
[0067] Since the distance between the folding wing 2 and the bottom of the mounting slot 302 is fixed, the piston rod 405 of the telescopic push rod 403 controls the drive rod 402 to push towards one end of the folding wing 2. The force applied by the telescopic push rod 403 to the drive rod 402 is transmitted to the rotating sleeve 404 and the connecting rod 401, causing the connecting rod 401 to rotate inside the rotating sleeve 404. This, in turn, drives the positioning bracket 5 to rotate and adjust along the positioning axis 304 of the telescopic assembly 3. At the same time, the folding wing 2 can be quickly controlled to achieve the folding and unfolding effect by controlling the retraction of the drive rod 402 through the piston rod 405, so that the folding wing 2 occupies less space when folding.
[0068] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A waterproof sleeve 201 is provided on the side of the folding wing 2 near the wing body 1. An embedded groove 202 is provided inside the waterproof sleeve 201. The positioning bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the embedded groove 202. An embedded wing 103 is provided on the side of the wing body 1 near the folding wing 2. The embedded wing 103 can be inserted into the embedded groove 202.
[0069] Reference Figure 1 First, the rotating component 4 drives the folding wing 2 to rotate, bringing the folding wing 2 and the wing body 1 to the same horizontal plane. Then, the telescopic component 3 drives the folding wing 2 to move and retract, docking the folding wing 2 with the wing body 1. (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 3 The embedded wing 103 of the wing body 1 is inserted into the embedded groove 202 inside the waterproof sleeve 201 of the folding wing 2. The sealing effect can be achieved by the compression of the embedded wing 103 and the waterproof sleeve 201, which prevents rainwater or debris from entering the inner side of the wing through the insertion gap, thereby affecting the normal folding and adjustment of the wing structure. At the same time, the folding wing 2 and the wing body 1 combined with the embedded wing 103 and the waterproof sleeve 201 have higher stability.
[0070] An exemplary embodiment of the present invention also provides a drone, including a body and a plurality of foldable wings as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the wing body 1 is connected to the body.
[0071] When storing or transporting the drone, two sets of drive motors 605 are used to drive the adjusting screw 601 to rotate, causing the adjusting screw 601 to unscrew the threaded sleeve 602. The adjusting screw 601 pushes the adjusting plate 301 to extend outward along the mounting groove 101. Then, the adjusting plate 301 pushes the folding wing 2 outward. The telescopic push rod 403 controls the piston rod 405 to extend outward. The piston rod 405 pushes the drive rod 402, which in turn causes the connecting rod 401 to flip, thereby controlling the folding wing 2 to flip and fold along the positioning axis 304. The drone with the folded wing occupies less space, making it easy to store or transport.
