Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically to a UAV launch system and a method for launching UAVs. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of drone technology in recent years, its application in military, security, and rescue fields is increasing. Traditional drone launch methods mainly rely on hand-launching, catapult launch, and simplified vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) methods. These methods have systemic defects and are difficult to meet the practical and civilian needs of modern high-precision, rapid deployment, and complex environment operations. I. Launch accuracy heavily relies on manual operation: Hand-launched or catapult-launched methods rely entirely on the operator's experience to judge the throwing angle, force, and timing, lacking precise spatial coordinate feedback. Without an auxiliary positioning system, the launch point position error can reach several meters to tens of meters, resulting in a large initial heading deviation after takeoff, significantly prolonging target search time and reducing the initial lock-on success rate. Especially in complex terrains such as mountains and urban canyons, manual estimation of orientation is extremely prone to inaccuracy.
[0003] II. Lack of a coordination mechanism with high-precision positioning systems: Traditional systems do not integrate RTK centimeter-level positioning modules, making it impossible to obtain the precise geographical coordinates of the launch point at the moment of launch. After takeoff, the UAV relies solely on its own GPS or inertial navigation, making it difficult to establish a precise spatial vector relationship between the launch point and the target point. This results in an excessively large search range for the subsequent seeker and low target locking efficiency.
[0004] 3. Poor environmental adaptability and weak anti-interference ability: Hand-launched and catapult-launched devices experience a sharp drop in stability under conditions of strong winds, low temperatures, and electromagnetic interference. For example, hand-launched drones are prone to attitude loss when wind speeds exceed level five; the spring elasticity of the catapult mechanism decreases at low temperatures, leading to uneven thrust; and in strong electromagnetic environments such as high-voltage power lines and nuclear power plants, remote control signals are easily interfered with, causing unauthorized flights or crashes. Existing technologies have not been optimized in terms of structure or algorithms for these scenarios.
[0005] IV. Low deployment efficiency and high operational threshold: Traditional launch methods require manual completion of multiple steps, including drone mounting, inspection, deployment, and visual guidance. Preparation time for a single launch typically exceeds 1-2 minutes and requires specialized training. Operators must simultaneously monitor the aircraft's status, ambient wind speed, and target location, resulting in a high cognitive load that is difficult for non-professionals to handle. In highly time-sensitive scenarios such as emergency rescue and border patrols, delays directly lead to mission failure.
[0006] V. Structural bottlenecks exist in the vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) solution: Although VTOL drones can take off and land without a runway, their multi-rotor + fixed-wing hybrid structure leads to system complexity, increased weight, and higher energy consumption. The switching process between rotor and wing is prone to power interruption or aerodynamic interference, their wind resistance is weaker than that of pure multi-rotor drones, and their cost is high (generally exceeding 200,000 yuan for industrial-grade drones), making it difficult to achieve large-scale, low-cost deployment.
[0007] VI. The industry generally lacks collaborative design involving "human-machine-system": Existing technology separates "target identification" from "launch control," allowing operators to only roughly aim visually or using simple laser rangefinders, failing to establish a closed-loop guidance link between the optical sight, RTK positioning, and flight control system. This "information silo" design renders UAV launches "blind drops," unable to support high-precision, rapid-response combat or inspection missions.
[0008] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a UAV launch system that is easy to carry, has a simple operation process, high launch accuracy, strong anti-interference ability, and high recognition. Summary of the Invention
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a drone launching system, including a gun body structure made of ABS material, with an arm limiting structure and clamping mechanism at the front end, a stock at the rear end, a trigger and a grip located in the middle of the gun body structure, a power supply installed on one side of the gun body structure, and a battery compartment installed inside the stock; the main body structure adopts a composite design of ABS material and metal reinforcing ribs, which reduces the weight by about 30% compared to a traditional all-metal gun body, and increases the strength of key parts by about 2 times.
[0010] The scope is integrated on top of the gun body and is a variable-focus optical scope; The control system is integrated inside the gun body structure and includes a power supply module, an RTK positioning module, and a control circuit configuration. The clamping mechanism is electrically connected to the trigger, and the control circuit is configured to respond to the trigger operation, control the clamping mechanism to release the drone, and coordinate with the RTK positioning module to send positioning information to the drone.
[0011] Furthermore, a power display panel is provided on one side of the gun body structure to display the remaining power of the built-in battery or the drone battery.
[0012] Furthermore, the sight is a variable magnification optical sight with a zoom range of 1.2-6x.
[0013] Furthermore, the gun body structure also integrates the following: The gun body power switch is used to control the power supply to the entire firing system. An aircraft launch switch, the trigger of which is associated with the travel of the trigger; The aircraft power-on switch and the aircraft power-off switch are used to control the start-up and shutdown of the drone, respectively.
[0014] Furthermore, the RTK positioning module includes an RTK antenna for receiving differential positioning signals to obtain and provide real-time positioning information with centimeter-level accuracy; the RTK module works in conjunction with the aiming scope to achieve centimeter-level positioning, enabling the UAV to quickly lock onto the target after launch, significantly improving accuracy and efficiency.
[0015] Furthermore, the grip includes a front grip and a rear grip respectively disposed at the front and middle sections of the bottom of the gun body structure.
[0016] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism is an electromagnetic lock or a mechanical latch lock. When the control circuit receives the transmission signal, it controls the clamping mechanism to release the lock on the drone. The hydraulic / pneumatic system can maintain a stable clamping force even in strong winds and low temperatures. When the operator pulls the trigger, the lever system converts the small displacement into a rapid release action, ensuring that the drone can stably detach at the moment of launch.
[0017] Furthermore, the power supply is electrically connected to the power switch of the gun body.
[0018] Furthermore, this application also discloses a drone launch system and a method for launching drones, characterized by comprising the following steps: S1: Place the drone in the arm limiting structure and lock it in place using the clamping mechanism; S2: The operator holds the firing system and aims at the target area through the sight; S3: Power on the system and RTK positioning module to complete the initial positioning; S4: Turn on the drone power to put the drone into launch-ready state; S5: Pull the trigger to activate the clamping mechanism to release the drone, and at the same time, the RTK positioning module sends the target positioning information to the drone; S6: The UAV autonomously locks onto the target and flies away from the launch system based on the received positioning information.
[0019] Furthermore, if it is necessary to cancel the launch after step S4 and before S5, the drone power should be turned off first, and then the system power should be turned off.
[0020] Because the present invention adopts the above technical solution, it has the following beneficial effects: 1. Simple operation and rapid deployment: Adopting a gun-style human-machine interface design, the operation process is intuitive and requires no complicated training. It can quickly prepare and launch drones, greatly improving emergency response and deployment efficiency. Traditional manual launch relies on the operator's experience to judge distance and angle, which is easily affected by environmental interference. This system improves the launch accuracy from meter level to centimeter level through RTK positioning and digital guidance of the sight, significantly reducing human error and improving mission success rate.
[0021] 2. High launch accuracy: By integrating a high-precision optical sight and an RTK positioning module, a dual positioning mode of "human coarse aiming + system fine guidance" is achieved, which greatly improves the success rate and accuracy of the UAV in autonomously locking onto the target after launch. Combined with the centimeter-level positioning of the RTK module, the coordinates of the launch point and the target's azimuth information are transmitted to the UAV in real time. This collaborative mode of "human eye coarse guidance + machine fine positioning" enables the UAV to quickly correct its initial course after launch, reducing the target locking time by more than 50%, which is especially suitable for moving targets or complex terrain scenarios.
[0022] 3. Good stability and safety: The gun body has a stable structure, and the drone is locked by a special clamping mechanism and released at the moment of launch, ensuring the stability of the launch process and the safety of the drone. The clamping mechanism adopts electromagnet or pneumatic drive to realize the rapid locking and release of the drone on the gun body. The release impact force is reduced by 60%, avoiding damage to the drone structure. The arm limiting structure is standardized through mechanical interface to ensure consistent placement every time, reducing flight instability caused by installation deviation.
[0023] 4. Strong environmental adaptability: The gun body adopts a composite design of ABS material and metal reinforcement, which reduces the weight by 30% while increasing the strength of key parts by 2 times. The corrosion resistance meets the IP54 protection level (such as dustproof and splashproof). The matte surface treatment reduces reflection and enhances concealment. In jungle or urban environments, the lightweight gun body is easy for individual soldiers to carry, and the high-strength structure resists impact and adapts to extreme temperatures from -20℃ to 55℃.
[0024] 5. High functional integration: It integrates power supply, aiming, positioning, and control functions into one unit, reducing external equipment and improving the reliability and integration of the system. The modular design supports quick replacement of parts (such as battery compartment and scope). It maintains stable performance under sand, humidity or low temperature conditions and is more resistant to harsh weather conditions than traditional metal gun bodies. Attached Figure Description

[0026] 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, and not all embodiments. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. 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.
[0027] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 1-3 As shown, this application provides a drone launching system, including a gun body structure made of ABS material, with an arm limiting structure 16 and a clamping mechanism 14 at the front end, a stock 6 at the rear end, a trigger 10 and a grip located in the middle of the gun body structure, a power supply 3 installed on one side of the gun body structure, and a battery compartment 7 installed inside the stock 6; a sight 2, integrated on the top of the gun body, is a variable-focus optical sight; a control system, integrated inside the gun body structure, includes a power supply module, an RTK positioning module, and a control circuit configuration; the control system integrates the RTK module, the power supply system, and a trigger switch, automatically completing positioning, data transmission, and release commands, reducing manual steps. For example, when the trigger is pulled, the system simultaneously triggers the release of the clamping mechanism and the start of the drone flight control, achieving "one-click launch". The clamping mechanism 14 is electrically connected to the trigger 10, and the control circuit is configured to respond to the trigger operation of the trigger 10, control the clamping mechanism 14 to release the drone, and coordinate with the RTK positioning module to send positioning information to the drone.
[0028] More specifically, the gun body structure has a power display panel 5 on one side, which is used to display the remaining power of the built-in battery or drone battery. The power display panel and intuitive switches (such as the power-on / power-off switch of an aircraft) simplify the process, reduce training time by 40%, and allow non-professionals to get started quickly.
[0029] More specifically, the aiming scope 2 is a variable magnification optical aiming scope with a zoom range of 1.2-6x. At low magnification, it provides a wide field of view, facilitating target searching and tracking at close range or during rapid movement; at high magnification, it provides higher magnification, enabling detailed observation and precise aiming at targets at greater distances. The operator can identify and continuously track targets earlier and more accurately through the high-magnification, clear aiming scope. After launch, the search field of view of the UAV's onboard seeker (such as electro-optical or infrared) is typically narrow. The precise target location provided in advance by the aiming scope significantly reduces the search range of the UAV's seeker after activation, thereby shortening the time from launch to lock-on and increasing the success rate of the first lock-on. High definition and variable magnification are used to adapt to the observation needs at different distances. Its core principle is to indicate the initial orientation of the target to the UAV through precise manual aiming, thereby greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of the UAV's airborne seeker in finding, identifying and finally locking the target after the UAV is launched. It is a key artificial vision guidance component in the entire system to realize the human-machine collaboration concept of "rapid deployment and precise strike".
[0030] More specifically, the gun body structure also integrates the following: The gun body power switch 4 is used to control the power supply to the entire launch system; the aircraft launch switch 8 is triggered in conjunction with the travel of the trigger 10; the aircraft power-on switch 15 can only be used when RTK positioning is valid and the gun body has sufficient power. The aircraft power-on switch 15 and the aircraft power-off switch 12 are used to control the start and stop of the UAV, respectively. The aircraft power-off switch 12 has the highest priority and directly cuts off the power supply to the UAV. When the UAV is powered off, the propellers stop rotating, and the gun body power switch 4 can shut down the entire launch system.
[0031] More specifically, the RTK positioning module includes an RTK antenna 1 for receiving differential positioning signals to obtain and provide real-time positioning information with centimeter-level accuracy. The static positioning accuracy of the RTK module's launch point can reach: horizontal ±1cm + vertical ±2cm. A dual-frequency receiver (L1 / L2 band) is used to eliminate ionospheric errors, and a MEMS inertial sensor is used to improve positioning stability in complex environments. The coordinate data is transmitted to the UAV in real time via a wireless data transmission radio to ensure accurate positioning at the moment of launch.
[0032] When the operator turns on the power switch 4 of the gun body, the entire firing system is powered on, the RTK module 11 starts up, and the RTK antenna 1 connected to it begins to receive satellite signals from global navigation satellite systems (such as GPS, Beidou, etc.). Then, high-precision positioning begins to be calculated: this is the core of RTK technology. The specific working mode of the RTK module is as follows: first, it receives the raw observation data from the satellites: the RTK module receives the carrier phase signals from multiple satellites through the antenna.
[0033] Receiving differential correction data: In order to achieve centimeter-level high accuracy, the RTK module needs to obtain real-time differential correction signals from a nearby RTK base station or satellite augmentation service system via a mobile network (such as 4G / 5G) or radio data link.
[0034] Real-time dynamic calculation: The module uses the satellite data it receives and the differential data input from the outside to perform real-time dynamic differential calculations. This process can greatly eliminate common errors such as satellite orbital errors, clock errors, and atmospheric delays (ionosphere, troposphere).
[0035] Output high-precision coordinates: After the calculation is completed, the RTK module outputs the latitude, longitude and altitude coordinates of the launch system location with centimeter-level accuracy, providing the UAV with accurate launch starting point coordinates.
[0036] More specifically, the grip includes a front grip 13 and a rear grip 9 respectively located at the front and middle sections of the bottom of the gun body structure, which can be easily held with both hands. The grip and stock are ergonomic, allowing the operator to hold the gun in a natural posture and reducing fatigue. From the time the drone is mounted to the time it is launched, a well-trained operator can complete the process in 20-30 seconds, which greatly saves preparation time compared to the 1-2 minutes required by traditional systems.
[0037] More specifically, the clamping mechanism 14 is an electromagnetic lock or a mechanical latch lock. When the control circuit receives the transmission signal, it controls the clamping mechanism 14 to release the lock on the drone. It has a manual safety pin independent of the trigger. When inserted, both the trigger 10 and the release mechanism are locked. The clamping mechanism 14 amplifies the operating force through leverage, utilizes friction for anti-slip and elastic elements to adapt to the shape, and combines a hydraulic / pneumatic system to achieve automated control. When the operator pulls the trigger, the lever system converts the small displacement into a rapid release action, ensuring stable release of the drone at the moment of launch. Its design takes into account reliability, anti-interference, and modular expansion, and is adaptable to different drone sizes.
[0038] More specifically, the power supply 3 is electrically connected to the gun body power switch 4.
[0039] Unlike the features described above in this application, the main body material of the gun body in this application can also preferably be ABS plastic with high impact resistance and aging resistance. Through injection molding, the overall structure can be integrated and the weight can be reduced. At the same time, in order to enhance the strength of key stress-bearing parts (such as trigger connection, arm limiting structure, and buttstock shoulder pad), insert injection molding technology can also be used to pre-place metal (such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel) reinforcing ribs or connectors inside the ABS shell. Finally, the surface of the gun body can be treated with matte spraying, which has both anti-reflective and wear-resistant properties.
[0040] Furthermore, regarding the aircraft clamping mechanism 14, a latch / slider mechanism driven by an electromagnet or servo motor can be adopted. Under normal conditions, the latch extends under the action of a spring and engages with a pre-set groove or flange on the drone body to achieve locking. When the trigger 10 is pulled, the electromagnet is energized or the servo motor rotates, driving the latch to retract, and the drone is released instantly under its own thrust. Moreover, a pneumatic design can also be adopted, by setting a miniature high-pressure gas cylinder. When released, the trigger triggers the solenoid valve, and the high-pressure gas drives the piston to move, popping out the locking pin that is holding the drone, thus completing the release. This solution has a large thrust, a smoother release action, and less impact.
[0041] The trigger 10 can also employ a linkage mechanism design with a two-stage travel. The first stage triggers a tactile switch, activating the pre-circuit of the aircraft's power switch 15. The second stage, in its "locked position," triggers the main switch, controlling the release of the clamping mechanism and potentially simultaneously sending the final launch signal to the UAV flight controller. A force feedback mechanism can be integrated into the trigger to indicate critical positions to the operator.
[0042] Furthermore, this application also discloses a method for launching a drone using a drone launch system, characterized by comprising the following steps: S1: Place the drone in the arm limiting structure 16 and lock it in place by the clamping mechanism 14; S2: The operator holds the firing system and aims at the target area through the sight; S3: Power on the system and RTK positioning module to complete the initial positioning; S4: Turn on the drone power to put the drone into launch-ready state; S5: Pull the trigger 10 to trigger the clamping mechanism 14 to release the drone, and at the same time the RTK positioning module sends the target positioning information to the drone; S6: The UAV autonomously locks onto the target and flies away from the launch system based on the received positioning information.
[0043] More specifically, if it is necessary to cancel the launch after step S4 and before S5, the drone power should be turned off first, and then the system power should be turned off.
[0044] The method described above in this application is as follows: Preparation Phase: The operator checks the gun's battery level 5 and accurately places the drone loaded with the mission into the arm limiting structure 16. Upon hearing the locking sound of the clamping mechanism 14, the operator confirms that the locking is complete. Then, the operator holds and aims the firing gun: The operator raises the gun, shoulders the stock 6, and holds the foregrip 13 and the rear grip 9 with both hands. The operator searches for, captures, and continuously tracks the target through the sight 2. The operator turns on the gun's power switch 4 to activate the system: The RTK module 11 starts up, and the indicator light flashes until it stays on, indicating that the positioning is ready (high-precision coordinates have been acquired). Drone preparation: The operator turns on the aircraft power switch 15, and the drone performs a power-on self-test. The propellers begin to idle. At the same time, the drone receives information such as the launch point coordinates from the RTK module of the gun through the interface. The operator can obtain the ready signal from the drone's indicator light or the headset (if connected) and enter the decision-making and launch phase. Continuous tracking during the firing phase means keeping the crosshairs of the sight pressed against the target; Pull the trigger: Smoothly pull the trigger 10 to the first position to confirm the drone status, and continue to pull it all the way down (second position locking position). Then, the following actions are triggered: the electromagnet / motor in the clamping mechanism 14 is activated, the latch retracts instantly, the drone's electrical interface is disconnected at the same time, and the gun body sends a "launch confirmation" command to the drone via data transmission to enter the flight phase. Autonomous flight: After the drone separates, its seeker (such as vision or infrared) immediately works, combining pre-set launch point coordinates and real-time target tracking data to autonomously calculate the intercept trajectory, propellers propel it at full speed, and fly toward the target; Post-launch processing: After confirming that the drone has flown away, turn off the aircraft power switch 15 and the gun power switch 4. If you need to launch again, simply replace the drone and repeat the process.
[0045] This application achieves centimeter-level positioning and target guidance by integrating an RTK module and a variable-focus sight, significantly improving the launch accuracy and locking efficiency of UAVs; it adopts a lightweight, high-strength gun body and an optimized release mechanism to enhance environmental adaptability and launch stability; it simplifies the operation process and lowers the barrier to entry through ergonomic design; it supports multi-scenario applications and has modular expansion capabilities; at the same time, it meets the needs of large-scale deployment with high reliability and low cost design, providing an innovative solution for rapid and accurate UAV operations.
