[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides an unmanned boat launching system, including a drone 1 and an unmanned boat 2, wherein the unmanned boat 2 can be conveniently and automatically disassembled and installed under the drone 1, so that the drone 1 can launch the unmanned boat 2 on the water to perform subsequent tasks.

[0025] The unmanned boat 2 includes a symmetrical set of hulls 21, a fixing frame is installed on the top of the hulls 21, and a retracting device is installed on the drone 1, and the retracting device and the fixing frame cooperate with each other. The fixing frame includes a floating rod 5 whose lower end is fixed to the upper side of the hull 21, and a connecting rod 7 is installed on the upper end of the floating rod 5 between the two hulls 21, so that the two hulls 21 form a whole. The retracting device includes a boom 3 whose upper end is fixed to the lower side of the drone 1 and a locking assembly 4 set at the lower end of the boom 3 and in the connecting rod 7.

[0026] A plug-in port 91 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 7, and the lower end of the boom 3 can be plugged and installed in the plug-in port 91. In addition, the connecting rod 7 specifically includes a horizontal cross bar 9 in the middle and guide rods 8 at both ends of the cross bar 9. The guide rods 8 extend downwardly at both sides. A floating block 6 is installed at the upper end of the floating rod 5. The floating block 6 includes a lower block 63, a middle rod 62 and an upper block 61 arranged in sequence from bottom to top. The middle rod 62 penetrates the guide rod 8. The two hulls 21 are connected to each other through the floating rod 5, the floating block 6 and the connecting rod 7, and a propeller and a detector are installed on the hull 21 to realize the movement of the unmanned ship 2 and water area detection.

[0027] The connecting rod 7 is provided with a slide groove 71 extending along its length direction, and a card slot 92 is provided at the intersection of the slide groove 71 and the plug interface 91, so that the slide groove 71 and the plug interface 91 are connected. A horizontal through slot 31 is provided at the lower end of the suspension rod 3, and both ends of the through slot 31 can be aligned and connected with the card slot 92. The lock assembly 4 includes a pair of card blocks 41 slidably arranged in the through slot 31, and a locking spring 42 is installed between the card blocks 41, and an abutting inclined surface 411 is provided at the lower end of the card block 41 and at one end away from the through slot 31. When the boom 3 is inserted into the plug-in port 91, the abutting inclined surface 411 slides and abuts against the inner edge of the plug-in port 91, so that the block 41 is forced to enter the through groove 31 until the block 41 is completely aligned with the slot 92. Then, the block 41 is pushed into the slot 92 under the action of the locking spring 42, thereby achieving locking between the boom 3 and the connecting rod 7, that is, the unmanned boat 2 is hoisted and fixed on the lower side of the unmanned aerial vehicle 1.

[0028] In addition, a sliding assembly for pushing the block 41 to move is provided in the slide groove 71, and the sliding assembly includes a rod 1 43, a ball 44 and a rod 2 45 which are sequentially provided from the guide rod 8 to the cross bar 9. The rod 1 43 is located in the straight part of the slide groove 71 in the guide rod 8 and moves, the ball 44 is located in the complete part of the slide groove 71 at the connection between the guide rod 8 and the cross bar 9 and moves, and the rod 2 45 is located in the straight part of the slide groove 71 in the cross bar 9 and moves, and a linear bearing 46 for supporting the movement of the rod 1 43 and the rod 2 45 is also installed in the slide groove 71, and a slideway 72 for the movement of the middle rod 62 is also provided on the guide rod 8, and the slideway 72 is connected to the slide groove 71; When the drone 1 drives the hoisted unmanned boat 2 to fly, the distance between the unmanned boats 2 is kept at the maximum due to the gravity limitation of the unmanned boats 2 themselves; When the drone 1 drives the unmanned boat 2 to land on the water surface, the draft of the unmanned boat 2 gradually increases, so that the buoyancy received by the unmanned boat 2 increases. Under the restriction of the slide 72, the floating block 6 moves obliquely upward, and at the same time, the middle rod 62 pushes the card block 41 out of the card slot 92 through the pushing component, thereby realizing the unlocking between the drone 1 and the unmanned boat 2.

[0029] A limiting ring 451 extends coaxially on the second rod 45, and the end of the second rod 45 is aligned with the slot 92. When the second rod 45 is pushed until the limiting ring 451 abuts against the inner wall of the slide slot 71, the end of the second rod 45 also completely pushes the block 41 out of the slot 92, thereby accurately unlocking the drone 1 and the unmanned boat 2.

[0030] The working principle of the present invention is: Fixing of UAV 1 and UAV 2: The boom 3 at the lower end of the UAV 1 is plugged into the plug-in port 91 of the cross bar 9, and the locking assembly 4 between the boom 3 and the cross bar 9 is in a matched locking state, thereby realizing the fixed lifting of the unmanned boat 2 under the UAV 1.

[0031] After the drone 1 drives the unmanned boat 2 to fly in the water area, the drone 1 and the unmanned boat 2 land in the water area, and the draft of the unmanned boat 2 gradually increases, so that the buoyancy received by the unmanned boat 2 increases. Under the restriction of the slide 72, the floating block 6 moves obliquely upward, and at the same time, the middle rod 62 pushes the card block 41 out of the card slot 92 through the pushing component, that is, the unlocking between the drone 1 and the unmanned boat 2 is realized, and then the drone 1 flies upward and leaves, completing the purpose of the drone 1 launching the unmanned boat 2.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
