Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high-altitude scattering by unmanned aerial vehicles, and in particular to a long-distance cluster scattering habitat unmanned system and a unmanned aerial vehicle projection method thereof. Background Art

[0002] A quadcopter is an unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with four rotors. Its background technology stems from in-depth research on flight stability. Traditional helicopters require complex mechanical structures to achieve stable flight, while quadcopters provide good stability and maneuverability through distributed rotors. With the development of micro-sensor and battery technology, quadcopters have become smaller and more powerful, and are widely used in photography, monitoring, rescue and agriculture. The continuous advancement of this technology has enabled quadcopters to play an important role in many industries. Especially after natural disasters (such as earthquakes, fires, and floods), many areas may face dangers such as structural instability and chemical leaks. Cluster drones can conduct reconnaissance and collect information in these areas without human entry, ensuring that human rescue teams do not have to venture into potentially dangerous environments. Cluster drones can be remotely controlled by operators at a safe distance, or automatically perform tasks through preset programs. This mode of operation avoids direct exposure of personnel in high-risk areas.

[0003] Swarm drones can also carry various sensors (such as thermal imaging, gas detection, etc.) to monitor large areas and collect real-time data. These sensors can identify hazards (such as heat sources, toxic gases, etc.) and provide real-time information to decision makers to help them develop safer rescue strategies.

[0004] China has carried out some work in the field of swarms, and some units have conducted swarm test verification, but the verification is mainly for the verification of basic theories and technologies such as swarm formation control, networking communication, collaborative situational awareness, and online decision-making and planning. However, there are few swarm system tests in high-dynamic environments combined with typical application scenarios. Existing drone launch systems mainly include ground-based single-launch and swarm platforms; vehicle-mounted swarm platforms, and airborne unpowered delivery platforms. At present, there are no related projects for long-range cluster drones equipped with dispensers.

[0005] Currently, most of the existing disaster rescue drones are single drones, and there are no cluster-related drones. Therefore, the monitoring and search range is small, and usually only a small area can be monitored and searched. It cannot effectively respond to post-disaster rescue of large-scale natural disasters. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cluster drone projection method that can monitor a large area.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "setting", "installation" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0028] Example like Figure 1 As shown, the long-distance cluster scattering unmanned habitat system described in the present invention includes a mother rocket body, a launch platform, a mother flight control system and a sub-flight control system. The mother rocket body is used for long-distance scattering of clustered unmanned aerial vehicles, the launch platform is used for the transportation and launch of the mother rocket body, the mother flight control system is used for the launch and flight control of the mother rocket body, and the sub-flight control system is used for the scattering control of clustered unmanned aerial vehicles and the flight control of unmanned aerial vehicles.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of layers of daughter arrow bodies arranged in sequence are arranged on the mother arrow body, and the daughter arrow body includes a plurality of cluster scattering devices arranged circumferentially. The cluster scattering device includes a drone loading box 1, and a plurality of drones loaded in the drone loading box 1 for scattering, and the drone loading boxes 1 are connected by a connecting structure. In this embodiment, one daughter arrow body includes three drone loading boxes 1, and each drone loading box 1 is loaded with 16 drones.

[0030] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the connection structure includes a throwing frame 2, which is the main frame of the mother arrow body, and three drone loading boxes 1 are arranged circumferentially around the throwing frame 2. The drone loading box 1 is provided with a deceleration and stabilization structure 3, which includes a stabilization parachute arranged inside the top of the drone loading box and a limit servo 34 for opening the stabilization parachute. Fig.17 As shown, a stable umbrella base 32 is provided at the top of the drone loading box, and a stable umbrella cover 31 is hinged on the stable umbrella base 32, so that the stable umbrella cover 31 can be flipped open to 90 degrees. A warehouse for containing a stable umbrella is provided at the top of the drone loading box, and the stable umbrella cover 31 is used to close the top of the warehouse. A spring top plate 33 is provided in the middle of the warehouse. In the deceleration stage, the spring top plate 33 is pushed by the spring to pop out the stable umbrella cover 31. The stable umbrella cover 31 is closed on the warehouse through a limit steering gear 34. In the deceleration stage, a signal is sent through the sub-flight control system, and the limit steering gear 34 works. The limit steering gear 34 drives the limit rod to release the limit on the stable umbrella cover 31, so that the stable umbrella cover 31 can be opened under the action of the spring top plate 33, and the stable umbrella pops up, which plays a deceleration role.

[0031] The inner wall of the scattering frame 2 is provided with an airbag 4 for ejecting the drone loading box 1. The scattering frame 2 is provided with a gas generator 6 and an air guide hole 7. The gas generator 6 is connected to the airbag 4 through the air guide hole 7. The stabilizing parachute can provide a deceleration and stabilization function after the drone loading box 1 is ejected. The airbag 4 is installed on the inner wall of the scattering frame 2, and can be quickly inflated and expanded under the action of the gas generator 6 to eject the drone loading box 1. The air holes 7 are arranged on the arc surface of the scattering frame 2, and two air holes 7 are arranged on each surface. The main function is to serve as the air guide hole 7 of the gas generator 6 to fill the high-pressure gas into the airbag 4. The airbag 4 is installed along the wall of the scattering frame 2, and the drone loading box 1 is tightly attached to the scattering airbag 4. The gas generator 6 is arranged at the center of the scattering frame 2, and a regularly controllable gunpowder is used as the detonator. The drone loading box 1 on each sub-arrow body is scattered in three directions, each sub-arrow body has an independent gas generator 6, and each drone adopts an independent scattering separation unit. The main function of the cluster scattering device is to stably bind the drone loading box 1 to the scattering frame 2 for reliable fixation; when reaching the predetermined task area, the cluster scattering device ejects the drone loading box 1 through the airbag 4 to complete the scattering task of the drone.

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, after the main rocket body reaches the target area and receives the scattering instruction, the sub-flight control system controls the gas generator 6 to ignite, and after the high-pressure gas is introduced into the airbag 4, the drone loading box 1 is thrown out at a predetermined speed and direction under the action of each airbag 4. Fig.14As shown, the gas generating device 6 in this embodiment generates gas by burning the propellant and releases the gas stored in the pressure vessel. The pressure vessel combines the technology of the pyrotechnic gas generator and the gas storage gas generator. The gas generating device 6 includes an electric squib 61 arranged inside the shell, and an ignition powder 62, a sealing diaphragm 63, and a high-pressure gas chamber 64 are arranged in sequence behind the electric squib 61. The electric squib 61 transmits an electrical signal to detonate the ignition powder 62, and uses a regularly controllable gunpowder as the ignition powder 62. The sealing diaphragm 63 isolates the ignition powder 62 from the high-pressure gas, and transmits the pressure to the high-pressure gas chamber 64 when the ignition powder 62 is detonated. The high-pressure gas chamber 64 stores a certain amount of high-pressure inert gas. A sealing ring 65 is arranged on the outside of the high-pressure gas chamber 64. The sealing ring 65 ensures that the high-pressure gas does not leak under normal conditions, and is greatly deformed when impacted by the ignition powder 62, causing the gas to overflow. Eight high-pressure gas holes 66 are arranged circumferentially on the high-pressure gas chamber 64 . The high-pressure gas holes 66 ensure that the high-pressure gas can be quickly and stably diffused circumferentially to the center of the spreading frame 2 when in action, and then rush into the airbag 4 through the holes 7 .

[0033] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, 16 loading cylinders for loading drones are arranged in the drone loading box 1, and a drone is arranged in each loading cylinder. A front end cover 5 for limiting the position of the drone is arranged at the tube mouth of the loading cylinder. One side of the front end cover 5 is hinged to the drone loading box 1, and the other side of the front end cover 5 is connected to the drone loading box 1 through a pin puller 10. A spring plate 9 for assisting the drone to pop out is arranged at the bottom of the loading cylinder, which plays a boosting role in the drone pop-up stage. A circle of packaging cylinder 8 is wrapped around the outer side of the main body of the drone loading box 1 to stabilize it. A pin puller 10 is arranged at the tube mouth of each loading cylinder. When the drone pops out, each pin puller 10 is instructed by a signal to open in sequence to release the drone.

[0034] The main function of the drone loading box 1 is to realize the integration of the drone and the spreading frame 2, electrical and other physical functions, as well as the interconnection of information; to ensure the relevant needs of system storage, maintenance, transportation and work. During the spreading process, the drone is adapted to the spreading overload; after the spreading, the drone is decelerated and stabilized to provide a stable posture for the drone to be initially modified, which is conducive to the initialization of the onboard electrical and initial control.

[0035] like Fig. 9 , Fig.10 , Fig.11As shown, the UAV is a foldable X-shaped four-rotor UAV. The UAV includes a fuselage 18, and four foldable arms 19 are evenly arranged on the side of the fuselage 18. The arms 19 are connected to the rotor assembly 17, and two groups of mechanical grippers 20 for perching are symmetrically arranged at the bottom end of the fuselage 18. The rotor assembly 17 includes a propeller rotatably arranged at the end of the arm 19, and the propeller is a foldable two-blade propeller. The bottom end of the arm 19 is hinged to the fuselage 18 by a torsion spring hinge, and when the arm 19 is unfolded, it is unfolded to a horizontal state by the action of the torsion spring. When the arm 19 is not unfolded, the foldable two-blade propeller is retracted into the fuselage 18. After the arm 19 is unfolded, the motor is started, and the two-blade propeller is thrown open under the rotation of the motor, presenting a straight-line working state.

[0036] The top of the fuselage 18 is provided with a reconnaissance module 11 for reconnaissance of the target area. The reconnaissance module includes a high-definition camera, which is connected to the fuselage 18 through a camera bracket. The fuselage 18 is provided with an electrical and control module 12 for the attitude control and control signal feedback of the UAV, a power battery assembly 13 for providing a power source, a battery management board for controlling the battery voltage reduction and energy distribution, a GPS module 15 for positioning, and an intelligent sensor module 16 for hazardous gas detection. The intelligent sensor module 16 includes a number of sensors, which are evenly arranged circumferentially on the fuselage 18. The electrical and control module 12 uses an existing integrated circuit board, and realizes the attitude adjustment of the UAV through the control of the sub-flight control system. Its main flight control system and the sub-flight control system are both existing flight control systems, and all the electrical control connections in the present invention adopt the existing electrical connection control method. The intelligent sensors are natural gas sensors, carbon dioxide sensors, carbon monoxide sensors, sulfide sensors, etc., all of which use existing sensors.

[0037] The high-definition camera of the reconnaissance module 11 can scout the target area and output signals; the electrical and control module 12 is responsible for the attitude control of the UAV and the feedback of the control signals of each electrical appliance; the power battery pack is a whole lithium battery, installed in the center of the fuselage 18, providing a power source for the electrical components of the fuselage 18; the power management board 14 is installed on the inner side of the bottom of the fuselage 18, responsible for controlling the battery voltage reduction and energy distribution; the GPS module 15 is arranged at the tail of the fuselage 18, extending out of the fuselage 18 to enhance the accuracy of the UAV flight positioning and the reliability of the inter-machine networking; the sensor is embedded in the surface of the fuselage 18, and can detect hazardous gases in the target area under the habitat reconnaissance mission state.

[0038] The mechanical gripper 20 is fixedly connected to the fuselage 18 and can be perched according to the task requirements. Fig.15 , Fig.16As shown, the mechanical gripper 20 includes a travel motor 201 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the body, a mechanical frame 202 is fixedly mounted on the travel motor 201, the output bottom end of the travel motor is connected to the fixed rod 203, and the two ends of the fixed rod 203 are symmetrically hinged with a connecting rod group, the connecting rod group includes three connecting rods 1 204 hinged in sequence, and the hinges of the two connecting rods 1 204 far from the fixed rod 203 in the connecting rod group are rotatably connected to the mechanical frame 202. The lowest connecting rod 1 204 is hinged to the top of the machine claw 205, the top of the machine claw 205 is hinged to one end of the connecting rod 206, and the other end of the connecting rod 206 is hinged to the mechanical frame 202. The travel motor 201 drives the fixed rod 203 to rise and fall, and then drives the connecting rod group to move, operating the mechanical gripper to move, and the connecting rod group is in an open state when it is pushed to the lowest end, and in a gripping state when it is pushed to the top.

[0039] In the initial state, the drone is against the inner side of the front cover 5, one side of the front cover 5 is hinged to the drone cabin, and one side is fixed by the pin puller 10. After popping out, the arms 19 are opened, and the four sets of arms 19 can be fully opened to a horizontal state. The motor is started, the foldable propeller is opened, and the drone performs a large maneuver and enters a normal patrol state.

[0040] The UAV integrates multiple reconnaissance functions. The first is high-altitude reconnaissance. During the network formation patrol stage, if a high-value tracking target is found, the reconnaissance module 11 can be used for real-time tracking and shooting. The second is perching reconnaissance. If no target is found during the network formation patrol stage, it will fly to the target area before the motor battery is exhausted and perch with the tail mechanical gripper 20. Sensors are installed on the side walls of the fuselage 18 to detect hazardous gases according to mission requirements.

[0041] When in use, the mother rocket body is above the target area, and the drone is powered on and relevant data is loaded about 30 seconds before being thrown. After preliminary theoretical calculations and consideration of the initial safety height of the drone cutting parachute, when the mother rocket body is about 500m above the target area, the drone loading box 1 is thrown out, and the stabilizing parachute opens under the action of the airflow to adjust the cylinder posture to maintain stability.

[0042] When the scheduled parachute opening time is reached, the limit servo 34 acts to eject the stabilizing parachute. Under the action of aerodynamic force, the stabilizing parachute quickly fills up and unfolds. The four-petal parachute canopy rotates rapidly under aerodynamic force, generating resistance to adjust the attitude and slow down the UAV.

[0043] When the drone loading box 1 reaches a stable falling speed under the action of the stabilizing parachute, the pin-pulling actuator pulls out the fixing pin. At this time, the tube cover is released and opens under the combined action of the spring plate 9 and the gravity of the drone, flips to a 90° position, and the drone is ejected from the tube and the arm 19 is unfolded.

[0044] like Fig.12 , Fig.13As shown, a drone projection method described in the present invention adopts the above-mentioned long-distance cluster scattering habitat unmanned system, comprising the following steps: Step 1, projection preparation stage: In the target area, after receiving the mission, the long-range cluster scattering habitat unmanned system is activated; Step 2, low altitude flight phase: Under the control of the mother flight control system, the mother rocket body is launched through the launch platform. After launch, the mother rocket body flies at a low altitude. When it approaches the mission area, the mother rocket body increases its altitude. After the flight is stable, the mother rocket body transmits its position and attitude information to the UAV, and the sub-flight control system completes the initialization; Step 3, scattering stage: According to the pre-set scattering point position information, the gas generator 6 is started to generate high-pressure gas to rapidly expand the airbag 4 and scatter the drone loading box 1 radially; Step 4, parachute stage: After the drone loading box 1 is thrown, after a certain number of seconds, the stabilizing parachute pops out from the parachute cabin and unfolds. Under the action of the stabilizing parachute, the drone loading box 1 is decelerated to a stable speed. Step 5, initial stage: After the stabilizer parachute is deployed for several seconds, the pin-pulling actuator acts, and the drone pushes open the front cover 5 under the combined action of gravity and the base spring plate 9, pops out from the loading tube, and deploys the arm 19 and the rotor assembly 17; After the drone is ejected from the loading tube, the data link is initialized, the sub-flight control system starts to receive magnetic sensor information and Beidou information, and calculates the drone's attitude in combination with image information, performs position and attitude calibration in real time, and the drone performs large maneuvers and enters normal patrol status; Step 6: Network formation and patrol flight phase: After the drone enters the normal patrol state, it shares position information through the networking data link and conducts collaborative formation flight.
