Description

[0002] At present, the nose landing gear structures of small and medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicles are mainly two types: spring shock absorbers and rubber shock absorbers. The spring shock absorber produces a shock-absorbing effect by compressing a spring, and the damper provides damping characteristics for the system. The shock-absorbing effect is within an acceptable range, and the structure is relatively simple with a relatively small number of parts. However, the disadvantage is that the manufacturing cost of the spring is relatively high in the scenario of large-load unmanned aerial vehicles, and the spring shock absorber is prone to bouncing during landing, and the spring is prone to non-return phenomenon when the compression time is too long. The rubber shock absorber produces a shock-absorbing effect by compressing industrial shock-absorbing rubber. The manufacturing cost of the rubber shock absorber is relatively low, and the engineering implementation difficulty is not great, but there are problems such as poor shock-absorbing effect and no damping characteristics.

The mounting bracket assembly 13 is fixedly connected to the oil cylinder assembly 1. The main wheel structure includes a front fork assembly 4 connected to the lower end of the piston rod assembly 3 and a front wheel assembly 12 rotatably connected to the front fork assembly 4. The front fork assembly 4 is connected to the lower end of the piston rod assembly 3.

[0081] The nose landing gear device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, when the front wheel assembly 12 touches the ground (such as when the unmanned aerial vehicle with this nose landing gear device lands), the front wheel assembly 12 moves towards the oil-gas buffer structure, pushing the piston rod assembly 3 to contract into the oil cylinder assembly 1, so that the hydraulic oil inside the oil cylinder assembly 1 flows through the throttle valve 1-8 to generate heat and absorb energy. When the compression process reaches equilibrium under the action of high-pressure nitrogen, the high-pressure nitrogen inside the oil cylinder assembly 1 will apply pressure to the hydraulic oil, causing the piston rod assembly 3 to extend out of the oil cylinder assembly 1. Since the oil cylinder assembly 1 includes an oil cylinder 1-1, a nozzle fixing pipe 1-2 and a nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12, therefore, according to the actual load condition, nitrogen can be filled and discharged into the cavity of the oil cylinder assembly 1 through the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12, so as to realize the function of adjusting the bearing capacity of the nose landing gear device of the unmanned aerial vehicle, thereby effectively improving the shock absorption effect.

[0082] The function of the oil cylinder assembly 1 is to provide a cavity for storing hydraulic oil and high-pressure nitrogen for the nose landing gear device of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and at the same time bear the nitrogen pressure, provide throttling to absorb energy, and can also perform functions such as nitrogen pressure adjustment.

[0083] Among them, the mounting bracket assembly 13 can be fixedly connected to the unmanned aerial vehicle body by bolts or welding.

[0084] The above-mentioned nose landing gear device of the unmanned aerial vehicle may further include a nozzle cap 1-6, and the nozzle cap 1-6 is detachably arranged on the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 to close the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 when the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 is not inflated or deflated.

At least one air nozzle fixing pipe nut 1-5 (such as one or two, etc.) is used to fasten the upper end of the air nozzle fixing pipe 1-2 from above the oil cylinder 1-1. The nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 can be in threaded fit with the air nozzle fixing pipe 1-2, so that the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 is screwed into the threaded hole above the air nozzle fixing pipe 1-2 in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The air nozzle cover 1-6 can be screwed into the upper threaded part of the nitrogen filling nozzle 1-12 in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

[0087] The steering bushing 1-9 can cooperate with the steering structure. The number of the steering bushings 1-9 can be at least one (such as one or two, etc.) and is placed in the steering chute on the outer side of the lower part of the oil cylinder 1-1. As Figure 12 shown, the steering bushing 1-9 can be composed of two semi-circular arc structures on both sides, which facilitates the assembly of the steering bushing 1-9.

The oil seal cover assembly 2 includes an oil cylinder cover 2-1. The outer wall of the oil cylinder cover 2-1 can cooperate with the oil cylinder assembly 1, and the inner wall of the oil cylinder cover 2-1 can cooperate with the piston rod assembly 3.

[0089] As Figure 13 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15 shown, the oil seal cover assembly 2 can also include at least one of an oil seal cover vertical seal ring 2-2, an oil seal cover end face seal ring 2-3, an oil seal cover inner oil seal 2-4, an oil seal cover inner dust seal 2-5 and a cover inner guide ring 2-6.

[0090] Among them, the end face seal ring 2-3 of the oil seal cover is arranged in the seal groove on the end face of the oil cylinder cover 2-1. The number of the vertical face seal rings 2-2 of the oil seal cover can be at least one (such as one or two, etc.).

The inner dust seal 2-5 of the oil seal cover is arranged in the inner dust seal groove of the oil cylinder cover 2-1.

[0091] The functions of the piston rod assembly 3 are as follows: a. It plays a role in bearing buffering and supporting during the landing and takeoff process of the unmanned aerial vehicle. b. It provides a rebound damping effect during the buffering process. C. It plays a role in filling hydraulic oil during daily maintenance.

[0092] The above function a can be achieved through the cooperation between the piston rod assembly 3 and the oil cylinder assembly 1.

The damping ring 3-6 can cooperate with the oil cylinder assembly 1 to provide a rebound damping force. That is, during the shock absorption process of the above oil-gas buffer structure, the high-pressure nitrogen will absorb energy and slowly release it through the action of the damping ring 3-6 during the release process, thereby avoiding the rebound of the piston rod 3-1 and achieving the functions of shock absorption and damping rebound.

[0094] In the unmanned aerial vehicle front landing gear device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, different rebound damping forces can be provided by replacing different types of damping rings 3-6, so as to facilitate the realization of the function of adjustable rebound speed.

Since the damping ring 3-6 is limited between the limit hole ring 3-2 and the piston hole ring 3-4, the two end faces of the damping ring 3-6 only need to be in contact with the limit hole ring 3-2 and the piston hole ring 3-4 respectively to realize the limit of the damping ring 3-6 on the piston rod 3-1. By relatively disassembling the piston nut 3-5 and the piston rod 3-1, the limit hole ring 3-2, the damping ring 3-6 and the piston hole ring 3-4 can be removed from the piston rod 3-1, so as to facilitate the replacement of the damping ring 3-6.

[0098] During the assembly process, the limit hole ring 3-2 can be assembled into the shaft tube above the piston rod 3-1 and slide down to the limit position of the piston rod 3-1, the damping ring 3-6 is assembled above the limit hole ring 3-2, the spacer ring 3-7 is assembled into the shaft tube above the piston rod 3-1 and slides down above the limit hole ring 3-2, the cushion ring 3-3 is assembled into the shaft tube above the piston rod 3-1 and slides down above the spacer ring 3-7, the piston hole ring 3-4 is assembled into the shaft tube above the piston rod 3-1 and slides down above the cushion ring 3-3, the piston nut 3-5 is screwed into the threaded part above the piston rod 3-1 in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction and tightened. The number of the hole ring guide rings 3-14 can be at least one (such as one or two), and the hole ring guide rings 3-14 are assembled into the guide ring hole grooves of the piston hole ring 3-4 to complete the assembly operation.

[0099] To achieve the above function c, in the nose landing gear device of the unmanned aerial vehicle provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the piston rod assembly 3 further includes a support tube 3-8, a hydraulic oil filling nozzle 3-16, a lower injection oil pipe 3-10, and an oil seal push rod 3-9.
