Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle deployment, and in particular relates to a foldable unmanned aerial vehicle rapid deployment system and method. Background Art

[0002] In some emergency or specific application scenarios in modern society, unprecedented high requirements are placed on the timeliness of aircraft deployment. This demand often stems from the urgent desire to respond and execute tasks quickly, such as in natural disaster relief, emergency medical supplies delivery or military reconnaissance. However, the traditional way of deploying drones has become a significant bottleneck. They are heavily dependent on ground airports or other fixed take-off and landing points, which not only greatly limits the flexibility and maneuverability of drones, but also requires them to go through energy-consuming take-off and climbing stages, which leads to reduced mission execution efficiency and limited drone endurance. More importantly, drones are extremely sensitive to the environmental conditions of the take-off and landing points during take-off and landing. Once encountering severe weather conditions such as strong winds, heavy rain, and lightning, the take-off and landing process of drones will become extremely difficult and may even cause safety accidents. This dependence on the environment undoubtedly further reduces the scope of application of drones and reduces their practicality. In addition, the design process of drones is also full of challenges. In order to ensure that drones can maintain stability and performance in various flight states, designers need to comprehensively consider multiple complex factors such as aerodynamics, material science, and control systems. This interdisciplinary complexity makes it difficult to deeply optimize drones for a specific operating condition. For example, when pursuing high-speed flight, it may be necessary to sacrifice a certain degree of stability and endurance; while emphasizing stability may limit flight speed and flexibility. This trade-off limits the flight efficiency and overall performance of drones to a certain extent.

[0003] Although traditional gun-launched UAVs have to some extent gotten rid of the limitations of ground take-off and landing sites and achieved rapid deployment of UAVs in a wider area, their timeliness has not been significantly improved. The UAV is deployed immediately after launch and flies to the target area relying on its own energy and power system. However, in this process, the UAV still needs to consume a lot of energy for climbing and long-distance flight, which not only affects the endurance of the UAV, but also limits its ability to respond quickly in emergency tasks. In addition, although gun-launched UAVs do not need to rely on traditional ground take-off and landing sites, they are still affected by environmental factors of the take-off and landing sites. Especially in severe weather conditions such as strong winds, if the wind resistance of the UAV fails to meet the corresponding standards, then even if it is launched by gun-launching, the UAV may be forced to abandon the mission due to inability to fly stably. This sensitivity to the environment undoubtedly reduces the reliability and stability of gun-launched UAVs in practical applications. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a foldable drone rapid deployment system and method, which are used to solve the technical problem of poor timeliness of existing drone deployment methods.

[0010] Furthermore, the carrier system and the drone are both connected to a control system and a navigation system.

[0011] The present invention also discloses a method for using the foldable drone rapid deployment system, comprising the following steps: The launch vehicle system flies to the designated airspace, then separates the final-stage payload cabin, releases the drone reserve device, controls the drone to the deployment speed and then deploys the drone, and finally adjusts the drone to start the cruise mission.

[0012] Furthermore, the drone storage device is equipped with a drone parachute; the drone is stored in the drone storage device in a folded manner; the drone is equipped with a deployment system; The above method specifically comprises the following steps: The launch vehicle system flies to the designated airspace, then separates the final stage payload cabin, releases the drone reserve device, releases the drone deceleration parachute to control the drone speed, separates the drone reserve device, and deploys the drone using the deployment system after reaching the drone deployment speed, then separates the drone deceleration parachute, and finally adjusts the drone to start the cruise mission; Wherein, a final-stage deceleration parachute is connected and arranged in the final-stage load cabin; After the separation of the final-stage payload cabin and before the release of the drone reserve device, the process also includes releasing the final-stage deceleration parachute for deceleration.

[0013] Furthermore, the carrier system and the drone are both connected to a control system and a navigation system; The instruction to separate the final-stage payload cabin is triggered by the designated position and altitude information reached by the final-stage payload cabin, and specifically includes the following process: after the navigation system of the carrier system or the navigation system of the UAV detects that the designated position and altitude information have been reached, the control system of the carrier system or the control system of the UAV issues an instruction to separate the final-stage payload cabin.

[0014] Furthermore, the instruction to separate the drone reserve device is triggered by the information that the final-stage deceleration parachute decelerates the final-stage payload compartment to a specified speed, and specifically includes the following process: after the navigation system of the carrier system or the navigation system of the drone detects the information that the specified speed has been reached, the control system of the carrier system or the control system of the drone issues an instruction to separate the drone reserve device; The command of the deployment system to deploy the UAV is triggered by the information that the UAV deceleration parachute decelerates the UAV to a specified speed, and specifically includes the following process: after the navigation system of the UAV detects the information that the specified speed has been reached, the control system of the UAV issues the command of the deployment system to deploy the UAV.
