[0046] Furthermore, in the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that the detailed description of a related well-known function or structure may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention, the detailed description will be omitted.
[0047] Figure 1 This is a diagram showing a flying car capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 The longitudinal cross-sectional view of a flying car capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground or water according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3 A diagram showing the general shape of the main body and the arrangement of the propulsion modules when viewed from the front.
[0048] Reference Figures 1 to 3 A flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground or water according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a main body 10 , a propulsion module 15 and a buoyancy boat 20 .
[0049] The main body 10 has a preset volume, and a seating space is formed inside for users to sit. In addition, the seating space provided inside the main body 10 can not only be used for users to sit, but also can be used to load items or form a surplus space for users to rest after unfolding bedding, etc. The outer shape of the main body 10 can form a streamlined structure to facilitate flying and reduce friction during flight. The main body 10 includes a front main body portion 10a and a rear main body portion 10b. The front main body portion 10a forms the front area of the main body 10, and by forming a streamlined structure, a circle can be formed around the direction perpendicular to the length direction. The rear main body portion 10b can form the rear area of the main body 10, and a quadrilateral can be formed around the direction perpendicular to the length direction.
[0050] Wings 11 and 12 for flight are arranged outside the main body 10. The wings 11 and 12 include a main wing 11 and a horizontal tail wing 12. The main wing 11 is arranged in the front area of the main body 10 and extends horizontally from the main body 10 toward the outside. The horizontal tail wing 12 is arranged in the rear area of the main body 10 and extends horizontally from the main body 10 toward the outside. In addition, a vertical tail wing is arranged in the rear area of the main body 10 and can extend vertically toward the upper side.
[0051] The propulsion module 15 is connected to the main body 10 to provide propulsion for flight. A plurality of propulsion modules 15 are arranged at preset distances along the outer periphery of the main body 10. The propulsion module 15 may be located around the outer periphery of the central area in the length direction of the main body 10. The propulsion module 15 is located at the rear main body portion 10b. The propulsion modules 15 may be arranged symmetrically with each other with the main body 10 as the center. The propulsion module 15 may be a jet engine, an electric ducted fan (EDF, Electric Ducted Fan), etc. The propulsion module 15 adopts the one used in drones and works based on the drone control method. The propulsion module 15 can be controlled by a remote controller or a controller located on the inner side of the main body 10.
[0052] The buoyancy boat 20 is connected to the lower part of the main body 10 to provide buoyancy for floating on water. The buoyancy boat 20 is made of a material that can provide sufficient buoyancy and has a strength to fly. According to an embodiment, the buoyancy boat 30 can be made of carbon fiber.
[0053] In the front area of the lower part of the main body 10, the buoyancy boat 20 can be formed symmetrically on the left and right sides of the main body 10 in the entire rear area. Therefore, if the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention is located on the water surface, it can float stably on the water surface through the buoyancy provided by the buoyancy boat 20.
[0054] Furthermore, the buoyancy boat 20 forms an open portion 210 in the inner center area so that the portion where the propulsion module 15 is located is penetrated from top to bottom. Therefore, the portion located at the lower part of the main body 10 among the plurality of propulsion modules 15 will be exposed to the lower area of the buoyancy boat 20. If the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water is located on the water surface, the propulsion module 15 located at the lower part of the main body 10 will be located in the water. Moreover, the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention can travel on the water by the propulsion force of the propulsion module 15 located in the water. In this case, the propulsion module 15 is composed of an electric ducted fan to generate propulsion force in the water.
[0055] Wheels 21 may be provided at the bottom of the buoyancy boat 20. The wheels 21 may be located at the front area and the rear area of the bottom of the buoyancy boat 20, respectively. As an example, the wheels 21 may be three-wheeled or four-wheeled. At least one of the wheels 21 may have a hub motor built inside for providing the power required for driving. Therefore, the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention may travel by means of the wheels 21 while being located on the ground.
[0056] Figure 4 This is a diagram showing a state where the main body is standing up relative to the buoyancy boat.
[0057] Reference Figure 4, the rear end of the main body 10 and the rear end of the buoyancy boat 20 can rotate with each other using the left and right directions as axes. That is, a rotating connection part 200 is provided at the rear end of the buoyancy boat 20. The rotating connection part 200 is formed by extending a preset length from the buoyancy boat 20 toward the upper side, and provides an axis that allows the main body 10 to rotate relative to the buoyancy boat 20. The main body 10 can be vertically erected in a manner that its length direction is oriented in the up and down direction by rotating relative to the buoyancy boat 20. In addition, the seating space formed inside the main body 10 and the seat 110 provided in the seating space for users to sit can rotate using the rotating connection part 200 as an axis. Specifically, an auxiliary connection part 111 is provided on the seat 110. The axes of the auxiliary connection part 111 and the rotating connection part 200 are the same. Therefore, the seat 110 can rotate using the rotating connection part 200 as an axis.
[0058] With the above structure, the seat 110 can rotate relative to the buoyancy boat 20 in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the main body 10 while the main body 10 rotates. If the main body 10 rotates, the seat 110 will rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the main body 10 corresponding to the rotation angle of the main body 10, so that the seating space and the seat 110 can maintain the state of being located in the horizontal plane.
[0059] In addition, a storage box 111 for loading items can be provided in the spare space. The storage box 111 can rotate relative to the main body 10 in the same manner as the seat 110. Therefore, if the main body 10 rotates, the storage box 111 will rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the main body 10 corresponding to the rotation angle of the main body 10, so that the storage box 111 can maintain the shape of being located on the horizontal plane. Therefore, even if the main body 10 rotates, it can prevent the items loaded in the storage box 111 from being poured out of the storage box 111.
[0060] If the propulsion module 15 is activated while the main body 10 is erected, the propulsion force is directed upward, and the flying car 1 takes off. Furthermore, when the flying car 1 takes off from the ground, the buoyancy boat 20 rotates relative to the main body 10, and thus closely adheres to the side of the main body 10. In this state, the main body 10 is vertically erected relative to the ground, and the passenger sitting on the seat 110 looks forward, so the passenger can ensure the field of vision through the opening 210.
[0061] Figure 5 A diagram showing a drive module for rotating the main body and the buoyant craft relative to each other.
[0062] Reference Figure 5The main body 10 and the buoyant boat 20 rotate relative to each other through the power provided by the driving modules 101 and 201. As an example, the driving modules 101 and 201 may include: a rack 101, which is arranged on the outer surface of the rear end of the main body 10 in a curved shape; and a gear 201, which meshes and rotates with the rack 101 and is connected to the buoyant boat 20. As another example, the driving module may be a hydraulic cylinder whose two ends are respectively connected to the rear end of the main body 10 and the buoyant boat 20 to be able to change the length.
[0063] Figure 6 This is a diagram showing an inclined plate located inside the rear end of a buoyant boat. Figure 7 A diagram showing a state in which the wheelchair sitting mode is formed by opening the rear side of the main body.
[0064] Reference Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 The flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground or water according to an embodiment of the present invention can carry a wheelchair. Specifically, a rear door 120 is provided at the rear end of the main body 10 to form an openable structure. In addition, a board receiving space 220 is formed at the rear end of the buoyancy boat 20, and an inclined board 221 extending toward the rear side can be provided in the board receiving space 220.
[0065] If the rear door 120 is opened in a state where the inclined plate 221 is led out from the plate storage space 220 toward the rear side and then lowered to the ground, the user who is sitting in the wheelchair can also ride the flying car 1 that can take off and land vertically on the ground / water. In this case, the seat 110 will be separated, and the wheelchair can be fixed inside the main body 10 instead of the seat 110. Therefore, if the main body 10 is erected, the wheelchair can rotate relative to the main body 10 like the seat 110, so that it can maintain a state of being located on a horizontal plane.
[0066] Figure 8 A diagram showing the structure of a variable-length wing.
[0067] Reference Figure 8 The wings 11 and 12 of the flying car 1 capable of vertical takeoff and landing on the ground or water can be of variable length. As an example, the wing cover 130 is formed into a telescopic structure, and a multi-stage structure can be formed in which the part in the direction away from the main body 10 can be inserted into the inner side of the part relatively close to the main body 10. Therefore, when landing on the water or the ground and driving on the water or the ground, the wings 11 and 12 will be shortened. In addition, the flying car 1 capable of vertical takeoff and landing on the ground or water can take off from the ground with the wings 11 and 12 shortened, and then fly after lengthening the wings 11 and 12 in the air.
[0068] A wing frame 135 is provided inside the wing cover 130. The wing frame 135 forms a slidable trapezoidal structure, and the length can be lengthened or shortened by sliding against each other. The wing frame 135 can form a structure in which the width of the trapezoid gradually increases in a direction away from the main body 10. Alternatively, the wing frame 135 can form a structure in which the width of the trapezoid gradually decreases as it moves away from the main body 10. In addition, the wing frame 135 can be formed into a structure similar to a folding antenna by a carbon fiber bobbin, so that the length can be changed.
[0069] Fig. 9 This is a diagram showing a structure of still another example of a variable-length wing.
[0070] Reference Fig. 9 The wing cover 130 is formed into a telescopic structure to increase or decrease the length. The wing frame 136 is located inside the wing cover 130. The wing frame 136 is formed into a scissor-type structure, thereby forming a structure that can change the length corresponding to the wing cover 130. One end of the wing frame 136 is combined with the main body 10, and the other end of the wing frame 136 can be combined with the inner end portion in the direction away from the main body 10 in the wing cover 130. Therefore, if the length of the wing frame 136 is adjusted, the length of the wing cover 130 can also be adjusted together.
[0071] Fig.10 This is a diagram showing another example of the structure of a variable-length wing.
[0072] Reference Fig.10 The wing cover 130 is formed in an integrated and retractable structure so that the length can be changed. As an example, the wing cover 130 can be formed into a retractable structure with variable length by a corrugated structure. A wing frame 135 is provided on the inner side of the wing cover 130. The wing frame 135 is formed into a slidable trapezoidal structure, and the length can be increased or decreased by sliding against each other.
[0073] Fig.11 This is a diagram showing another example of the structure of a variable-length wing.
[0074] Reference Fig.11 The wing cover 130 is formed in an integrated and retractable structure so that the length can be changed. As an example, the wing cover 130 can be formed into a retractable structure with a variable length by a corrugated structure. The wing frame 136 is located on the inner side of the wing cover 130. The wing frame 136 forms a structure that can change the length corresponding to the wing cover 130 by forming a scissor-type structure. One end of the wing frame 136 is combined with the main body 10, and the other end of the wing frame 136 can be combined with the inner end portion in the direction away from the main body 10 in the wing cover 130.
[0075] Fig.12A diagram showing a flying car capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to another embodiment.
[0076] Reference Fig.12 In other embodiments, a flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water includes a main body 10, a propulsion module 15 and a buoyancy boat 20.
[0077] The main body 10 has a preset volume, and a seating space is formed inside for users to sit. In addition, the seating space provided inside the main body 10 can not only be used for users to sit, but also can be used to load items or form a surplus space for users to rest after unfolding bedding, etc. The outer shape of the main body 10 can form a streamlined structure to facilitate flying and reduce friction during flying.
[0078] A main wing 11 for flying is provided on the outside of the main body 10. The main wing 11 is formed with Figures 8 to 11 Same structure, can vary length.
[0079] The propulsion module 15 is connected to the main body 10 to provide propulsion for flight. The propulsion modules 15 may be located on the left and right sides of the main body 10, respectively. The propulsion modules 15 may be symmetrical to each other on the left and right sides of the main body 10 with the front-rear direction as a reference. A plurality of propulsion modules 15 may be spaced apart and arranged along the front-rear direction.
[0080] A rear door 120 is provided at the rear end of the main body 10 to form an openable structure. The rear door 120 can be provided in such a manner that the lower end can rotate relative to the main body 10 with the left and right directions as an axis. Therefore, if the upper portion is lowered toward the ground after the rear door 120 is opened, it can function as a tilting board for disabled people to ride and for loading or unloading items. In addition, a groove is formed in the portion of the rear door 120 that contacts the vertical tail wing 13 provided in the flight assist module 30 described later when the rear door 120 is lowered toward the ground, thereby minimizing interference.
[0081] Fig.13 A diagram showing a propulsion module.
[0082] Reference Fig.13 The propulsion module 15 includes a support shaft 150 , a connecting component 151 and a propulsion component 152 .
[0083] The support shaft 150 is connected to the main body 10. In this case, the support shaft 150 penetrates the main body 10 along the width direction, and both ends are located at the left and right outer sides of the main body 10.
[0084] As another example, one end of the support shaft 150 may be connected to the main body 10 and extend outward in the width direction from the main body 10. The support shaft 150 is rotatable relative to the main body 10 with its longitudinal direction as an axis.
[0085] Furthermore, when a plurality of propulsion modules 15 are arranged along the front-back direction, the support shafts 150 of the propulsion modules 15 can be linked to each other to rotate relative to the main body 10. As an example, sprockets are arranged around the outer side of the support shafts 150 arranged along the front-back direction, and the plurality of sprockets can be connected to the chain. Furthermore, if the chain is rotated by the driving component, the sprockets and the support shafts 150 coupled thereto can be rotated accordingly.
[0086] The connection member 151 is located at the end portion located outside the main body 10 in the support shaft 150. That is, if the support shaft 150 penetrates the main body 10 in the width direction, the connection member 151 is located at both ends of the support shaft 150. Furthermore, if one end of the support shaft 150 is connected to the main body 10, the connection member 151 is located at the end portion extending toward the outside of the main body 10. Fig.10 2 illustrates a case where the connecting member 151 is located at both ends of the supporting shaft 150 when the supporting shaft 150 penetrates the main body 10 in the width direction. The connecting member 151 has a predetermined length in a direction perpendicular to the supporting shaft 150. In order to minimize air resistance, the connecting member 151 forms a curved surface at the front and rear surfaces.
[0087] The propulsion component 152 will generate propulsion force. The propulsion component 152 is combined with the connection component 151. A plurality of propulsion components 152 can be arranged in a row along the length direction of the connection component 151. The propulsion component 152 can be a jet engine, an electric ducted fan (EDF, Electric Ducted Fan), etc. The propulsion module 15 adopts the one used in the drone and works based on the drone control method. Fig.13 2 illustrates a case where the propulsion unit 152 is composed of a jet engine.
[0088] Fig.14 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a planar structure of a buoyant boat. Fig.15 This is a diagram showing a state where the flight assist module is pulled out from the buoyancy boat toward the rear side.
[0089] Reference Fig.14 as well as Fig.15 The buoyancy boat 20 is connected to the lower part of the main body 10 to provide buoyancy for the flying car to float on the water. The buoyancy boat 20 may be symmetrical on the left and right sides of the main body 10. A space capable of accommodating the flight auxiliary module 30 is formed inside the rear end of the buoyancy boat 20.
[0090] The flight assistance module 30 includes an auxiliary body part 300 and a track 310. The auxiliary body part 300 has a preset length along the front-back direction and a preset width along the left-right direction, and can be led out toward the rear side of the buoyancy boat 20. The flight assistance module 30 forms an air tube cushion structure composed of a solid with sufficient rigidity. Therefore, the flight assistance module 30 provides sufficient buoyancy on the water surface. The auxiliary body part 300 can be made of carbon fiber.
[0091] The rails 310 are located on the left and right sides of the upper surface of the auxiliary body portion 300 , and are provided from the front end to the rear end of the auxiliary body portion 300 .
[0092] A horizontal tail wing 12 may be provided on the auxiliary body part 300. The horizontal tail wing 12 is located on the left and right sides of the rear end of the auxiliary body part 300. The horizontal tail wing 12 is formed as described above. Figures 8 to 11 The structure in the auxiliary body part 300 can be accommodated inside the auxiliary body part 300 by changing the length, or can be led out of the auxiliary body part 300. In addition, a vertical tail wing 13 can be set at the center of the rear end of the auxiliary body part 300. The vertical tail wing 13 is formed as described above. Figures 8 to 11 The structure in the can thus change the length.
[0093] A hinge core 13b can be formed at the lower side of the rear end of the auxiliary body part 300 in a protruding manner. The hinge core 13b can adjust the up and down height. The hinge core 13b can be connected to the rudder of the vertical tail wing 13. The lower end of the hinge core 13b will be placed on the ground to support the auxiliary body part 300.
[0094] The flight assist module 30 is formed as an air tube cushion structure composed of a solid having sufficient rigidity, and can support the force acting on the horizontal tail wing 12 and the vertical tail wing 13 .
[0095] If the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention is located on the water surface, it can be stably floated by the buoyancy provided by the buoyancy boat 20. Moreover, if the propulsion force is generated in the propulsion component 152 in a state where the connection component 151 is rotated in the up and down directions, the flying car 1 can travel on the water. In this case, the flight assist module 30 is led out toward the rear side of the buoyancy boat 20, thereby improving the posture stability. Moreover, the rudder of the vertical tail wing 13 is partially immersed in the water surface, and when traveling on the water, the direction change can also be effectively achieved by performing its function.
[0096] Wheels 21 may be provided at the lower portion of the buoyancy boat 20. The wheels 21 may be located at the front region and the rear region of the lower portion of the buoyancy boat 20, respectively. As an example, the wheels 21 may be three-wheeled or four-wheeled. At least one of the wheels 21 may form a structure having a hub motor built inside for providing the power required for driving. Therefore, the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water according to an embodiment of the present invention may travel by means of the wheels 21 while being located on the ground. Furthermore, the wheels 21 form a sufficiently waterproof structure, so that the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water may achieve parking on water.
[0097] Fig.16 A top view showing the state of a flying car that can take off and land vertically on the ground or water when it takes off.
[0098] Reference Fig.16 If the propulsion component 152 generates propulsion force when the connection component 151 of the propulsion module 15 is facing the front-back direction, the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water can take off. Since the propulsion force generated by the propulsion component 152 is facing upward, the flying car 1 can take off vertically.
[0099] Differently, the flying car 1 can take off in a state where the front area of the connecting member 151 is tilted at an acute angle downward relative to the front-rear direction. In this case, since the propulsion force generated by the propulsion member 152 is directed toward the front upper side, the flying car 1 can take off toward the front upper side. When taking off, the main wing 11 can maintain a state of minimizing the length. In addition, the flight assist module 30 can be accommodated inside the buoyancy boat 20.
[0100] And, it is possible to maintain Fig.16 The aircraft lands in the state shown. The operation during landing is the same as that during takeoff except for the magnitude of the propulsion force generated by the propulsion member 152.
[0101] Fig.17 A side view of the aircraft in preparation for flight after takeoff. Fig.18 This is a bird's-eye view of the aircraft in preparation for flight after takeoff.
[0102] Reference Fig.17 as well as Fig.18 If the flying car 1 reaches the target height after takeoff, the flight auxiliary module 30 will be led out from the buoyancy boat 20 toward the rear side. In addition, the length of the main wing 11 and the horizontal tail wing 12 will become longer. As an example, the length will be the maximum length. In addition, by rotating the propulsion module 15, the length direction of the connecting component 151 is directed to the up and down direction, and the propulsion force provided by the propulsion component 152 will be directed to the front side. Therefore, the flying car 1 that can take off and land vertically on the ground / water can fly through the propulsion force and direction control provided by the propulsion module 15.
[0103] Furthermore, the propulsion module 15 can make the length direction of the connection member 151 tilted at an acute angle relative to the up and down direction. In this case, the propulsion force provided by the propulsion member 152 can be tilted toward the upper side or the lower side at an acute angle relative to the front side, thereby adjusting the flight direction.
[0104] In preparation for landing, Fig.17 and Fig.18 In contrast to the content shown, the lengths of the wings 11 and 12 are shortened, and the propulsion module 15 is rotated in such a way that the length direction of the connecting member 151 faces the front-rear direction. In addition, the flight assist module 30 can be inserted and accommodated inside the buoyancy boat 20, so that the flying car 1 can be changed into Fig.16 Status shown.
[0105] Fig.19 A diagram showing a state where the flight assist module is covered by a tent member.
[0106] Reference Fig.19 When used in a state of landing on water or on the ground, the flight assist module 30 can be used in a state covered by the tent member 10c. As an example, in the state of landing, the flight assist module 30 can be firstly led out from the buoyancy boat 20 toward the rear side.
[0107] The tent part 10c is stored inside the main body 10, and can be pulled out to the rear side of the main body 10 to cover the flight assist module 30 as needed. The tent part 10c is a retractable structure such as a telescopic structure, and its lower end can move along the track 310. Therefore, the space formed under the tent part 10c can be used by the user for camping or the like.
[0108] The flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water of the present invention can make the propulsion module 15 work based on the control method of the drone by using the jet engine and electric ducted fan (EDF) used in the drone. Therefore, in the existing aircraft, etc., complex instrument panels and joysticks are equipped for operating the aircraft, and ordinary people will find it difficult to operate. On the contrary, as long as you are familiar with the operation method of the drone, you can operate the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water of the present invention.
[0109] Furthermore, the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water of the present invention can be manually operated by passengers or remotely operated by a remote controller. Furthermore, the controller of the flying car 1 capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water of the present invention can include automatic driving software, thereby realizing automatic driving.
[0110] Furthermore, the flying car 1 of the present invention capable of vertical take-off and landing on the ground / water uses a jet engine and an electric ducted fan (EDF) used in drones, and the wings 11 and 12 are foldable, so that the flying car 1 can be parked or stored in a space where existing aircraft cannot be stored.
[0111] In addition, in order to facilitate or adjust the weight balance of the body when opening or closing the door of the flying car, the main wings 11 and 12 that are enlarged or reduced compared to the multiple H-shaped drones can be set in a manner that is different from the attached figure so that the height moves along the up and down front and back. The multiple H-shaped drones that hinder the opening and closing of the door of the flying car are lifted to the top of the body, so that the position of the main wing that contacts the direction rotation of the multiple drones is lowered downward to be positioned on the plate that is the bottom part of the body. In this case, the middle frame of the multiple H drones used in the limited space inside the body will be located at the ceiling of the body, so that the internal space of the body will also become easy to use. In the embodiment, the reason for positioning the main wing at the top is as follows: when the flying car flies at a low altitude over the sea, more air is accommodated by leaving an appropriate space between the main wing and the seawater, thereby obtaining several times more buoyancy at a small energy cost like the wing-to-ground effect.
[0112] The present invention has been described in detail using preferred embodiments, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments and should be interpreted according to the scope of the attached claims. Moreover, as long as one is of ordinary skill in the art, it will be understood that many modifications and variations can be implemented without departing from the scope of the present invention.
