Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] See Figure 1 and Figure 8 The small-to-medium-sized fixed-wing UAV impact-and-recovery device of this application includes a telescopic column 1, an energy dissipator 2, a base 3, a connecting component 4, and an intercepting net 5. The bottom of the telescopic column 1 is connected to the base 3, providing stable support for the entire device. The connecting component 4 includes multiple ropes 41, which connect the various components. Specifically, some ropes 41 connect the telescopic column 1 and the base 3 together, thereby enhancing the overall structural stability of the device; other ropes 41 first pass through the boundary of the intercepting net 5, then connect to the energy dissipator 2, and finally connect to the base 3. When the UAV impacts the intercepting net 5, the energy dissipator 2 can absorb the kinetic energy generated by the impact through its own structural characteristics, thus achieving effective recovery of the UAV.

[0022] The telescopic column 1 includes a telescopic column body 11 and a lifting ring 12. The telescopic column body 11 is composed of multiple nested column sections with different cross-sectional dimensions. This nested structure allows the length of the telescopic column body 11 to be adjusted according to actual needs. The lifting ring 12 is set at different height positions of the telescopic column body 11 and is used to connect components such as the rope 41.

[0023] Bolt holes are provided on the side of the telescopic column 11 where the lifting ring 12 is not installed. After the telescopic column 11 is adjusted to a suitable height, the stop bolt can be screwed into the bolt hole to fix the relative height between the sections of the telescopic column 11, so as to ensure that the telescopic column 1 maintains a stable length during operation.

[0024] The energy consuming device 2 includes a friction plate 21, a primary slider 22, a secondary slider 23, a preload bolt 24, an energy consuming device rigging 25, an energy consuming device lifting ring 26, a stop block 27, and a rubber pad 28. The friction plate 21 has an axial groove in its center. Both the primary slider 22 and the secondary slider 23 are composed of plates clamped on both sides of the friction plate 21 and preload bolts 24 penetrating the plates. The plates on the groove side have protrusions that fit the groove and are embedded within it. The primary slider 22 is positioned near the energy consuming device lifting ring 26, and the secondary slider 23 is positioned in the center of the friction plate 21. The rubber pad 28 is positioned on the side of the secondary slider 23 plate near the primary slider 22. The stop block 27 is positioned at the end of the friction plate 21 away from the energy consuming device lifting ring 26. The energy consuming device rigging 25 surrounds the friction plate 21 and can slide freely through the secondary slider 23, with its two ends connected to the preload bolts 24 on both sides of the primary slider 22.

[0025] The first-level working pull force, second-level working pull force, first-level energy consumption reserve, second-level energy consumption reserve, and total energy consumption reserve of a single energy consumer 2 are all calculated in a corresponding way, and the sum of the total energy consumption reserves of all energy consumers 2 must be greater than or equal to the maximum kinetic energy of the UAV at the moment of collision with the net.

[0026] The diameter of the energy dissipator rigging 25 is 2mm smaller than the thickness of the friction plate 21. This size setting helps to ensure that the energy dissipator rigging 25 slides smoothly on the friction plate 21.

[0027] The base 3 includes a base plate 31, a front base lifting ring 32, a side base lifting ring 33, and a sleeve 34. The sleeve 34 is mounted on the base plate 31 and is used to connect to the bottom of the telescopic column 1. The front base lifting ring 32 and the side base lifting ring 33 are mounted on the base plate 31 and are used to connect to the telescopic column 1 or the energy consumer 2 through the connecting component 4.

[0028] The base plate 31 is shaped like a quarter circle, and the sleeve 34 is positioned near the center of the quarter circle. This shape and layout design helps the base 3 to better perform its supporting function.

[0029] The front base lifting ring 32 is connected to the rope 41 via the buckle 42, and the rope 41 is further connected to the lifting ring 12 at the top of the telescopic column 1; the side base lifting ring 33 is connected to three ropes 41 via the buckle 42, wherein the other end of the first rope 41 is connected to the lifting ring 12 at the top of the telescopic column 1, and the second and third ropes 41 are connected to the energy dissipator 2, and pass through the lifting rings 12 at the top and middle of the telescopic column 1 in sequence, and finally connect to the upper and lower boundaries of the interception net 5.

[0030] The base plate 31 has bolt holes near the front base lifting ring 32 and the side base lifting ring 33, which can be used to fix the base 3 to the ground, further enhancing the stability of the device.

[0031] One side of the interceptor net 5 is the impact side facing the drone impact, and the other side is the buffer deformation side. The impact side corresponds to the side where the front base ring 32 of the base 3 is located. This arrangement helps to more effectively absorb and buffer the impact of the drone.

[0032] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments: Please see Figures 2 to 6 This invention provides a small-to-medium-sized fixed-wing UAV net-collision recovery device, comprising: a telescopic column 1, an energy consumer 2, a base 3, a connecting component 4, and an interception net 5. The telescopic column 1 includes a telescopic column body 11 and a lifting ring 12; the energy consumer 2 includes a friction plate 21, a primary slider 22, a secondary slider 23, a pre-tightening bolt 24, an energy consumer rigging 25, an energy consumer lifting ring 26, a stop block 27, and a rubber pad 28; the base 3 includes a base plate 31, a front base lifting ring 32, a side base lifting ring 33, and a sleeve 34; the connecting component 4 includes a rope 41 and a locking buckle 42.

[0033] The telescopic column 1 is composed of three telescopic column bodies 11 with different cross-sectional dimensions nested together. At different height positions on the three sides of the telescopic column body 11, there are lifting rings 12 for ropes 41 to be connected or passed through. Bolt holes are provided on the non-lifting ring 12 side of the telescopic column body 11 to control the height of the telescopic column 1. The telescopic column 1 can be retracted to its minimum volume during transportation or storage, and can be stretched out when in use.

[0034] The friction plate 21 in the energy consumer 2 has an axial groove in the middle to guide the slider. The primary slider 22 and the secondary slider 23 are both composed of plates clamped on both sides of the friction plate 21 and preload bolts 24 penetrating the plates. The plate on the groove side has a protrusion that fits into the groove and is embedded in the groove. The preload bolts 24 should be tightened using a torque tool with quantitatively controllable torque. The applied preload force is determined according to the relationship between the tightening torque of the preload bolts 24 and the tension of the screw. The primary slider 22 is located at the end near the energy dissipator ring 26, and the secondary slider 23 is located in the middle of the friction plate 21. When impacted by a small fixed-wing UAV within a certain kinetic energy range, energy is dissipated only through friction of the primary slider 22. When impacted by a medium-sized fixed-wing UAV within a certain kinetic energy range, the primary slider 22 and the secondary slider 23 work together to dissipate energy after colliding. At the same time, a rubber pad 28 is provided on the side of the secondary slider 23 near the primary slider 22 to reduce the instantaneous pulse effect generated when the primary slider 22 and the secondary slider 23 collide. A stop block 27 is provided on the side of the friction plate 21 without the energy dissipator ring 26 to limit the end of the slider. Both ends of the energy dissipator rigging 25 are connected to the pre-tightening bolts 24 of the primary slider 22. The rope diameter should preferably be about 2 mm less than the thickness of the friction plate 21.

[0035] This embodiment provides a method for calculating the working tension of the energy consumer 2 and the system's energy reserve (that is, determining the tension of the rope 41 and controlling the internal forces of the system). The preload of the two preload bolts 24 in the first-stage slider 22 is... T 1. The preload of the preload bolt 24 in the secondary slider 23 is: T 2. The preload is controlled by the torque applied when tightening the preload bolt 24. The distance between the first-stage slider 22 and the second-stage slider 23 is the first-stage stroke. l 1. Within this stroke range, the coefficient of friction between the primary slider 22 and the friction plate 21 is... μ 1. The distance from the secondary slider 23 to the stop 27 is the secondary stroke. l 2. Within this stroke range, the coefficient of friction between the slider and the friction plate 21 is... μ 2. The main control mechanical parameters of a single energy consumer 2 are: Level 1 working tensile strength: F 1=4 T 1 μ 1 Level 2 working tensile force: F 2=4( T 1+ T 2) μ 2 Level 1 energy reserve: E 1=4 T 1 μ 1 l 1 Secondary energy storage: E 2=4(T 1+ T 2) μ 2 l 2 Total energy reserves: E total =4 T 1 μ 1 l 1+4( T 1+ T 2) μ 2 l 2 Of which, total energy storage E total The total number of energy-consuming devices multiplied by 2 should not be less than the maximum kinetic energy of the drone at the moment of impact with the net.

[0036] The base plate 31 should preferably be a quarter circle, with the sleeve 34 located near the center. The internal dimension of the sleeve 34 should preferably be 1 mm larger than the external dimension of the bottom of the telescopic column 1. Figure 2 As shown, the front base lifting ring 32 is connected to a rope 41 via a buckle 42, and the other end of the rope 41 is connected to the lifting ring 12 on the top of the telescopic column 1, corresponding to the front base lifting ring 32, via the buckle 42; Figure 3 As shown, the side base lifting ring 33 is connected to three ropes 41 via a buckle 42. Of the three ropes 41, the other end of the first rope is connected to the lifting ring 12 on the top of the telescopic column 1, which corresponds to the side base lifting ring 33, via a buckle 42. The second and third ropes 41 are connected to the energy dissipator 2 and pass through the remaining lifting ring 12 at the top of the telescopic column 1 and the lifting ring 12 in the middle of the telescopic column 1, respectively. After passing through the lifting ring 12, the second and third ropes 41 continue to pass through the upper and lower boundaries of the interception net 5.

[0037] Bolt holes are opened near the front base lifting ring 32 and the side base lifting ring 33 of the base plate 31. The base 3 is fixed to the ground with anchor points in a specific site by bolt connection. The side of the front base lifting ring 32 of the interception net 5 is the impact side, and the other side is the buffer deformation side. A certain buffer space should be reserved on the buffer deformation side.
