Flying saucer type 360-degree omnidirectional driving device

Abstract

The invention discloses a flying saucer type 360-degree omnidirectional driving device which comprises a main shaft (1), a bearing (2), a support seat (3) and a power propelling assembly (7). The power propulsion assembly (7) blows air downwards to generate lift force, can tilt outwards to form a state B by taking a vertical state A as a reference, and further tilts leftwards and rightwards on the basis of the state B to form a superposition state of D, E, G, H and B, and the adjustment angles are respectively 5-30 degrees outwards and 5-50 degrees leftwards and rightwards. The device can be provided with one to two groups of driving units, each group comprises 2-6 sets of power propelling assemblies, and lifting force is converted into horizontal component force through inclined arrangement, so that 360-degree translation and steering around a main shaft are realized; when two groups of driving units are adopted, the two groups of driving units rotate oppositely to counteract torsion, so that the spindle and an external structure are prevented from spinning. The omni-directional vector driving device is simple in structure, flexible to adjust, capable of achieving omni-directional vector driving, suitable for the flying saucer type aircraft and high in maneuverability and flight stability.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of aircraft power drive technology, specifically to a saucer-shaped 360° omnidirectional drive device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, conventional multi-rotor aircraft generally adopt a fixed-angle rotor structure, relying on adjusting the rotation speed to achieve takeoff, landing, and steering. This results in problems such as slow steering response, low translation efficiency, and difficulty in achieving truly omnidirectional agile movement. Some tiltrotor aircraft have complex structures, limited angle adjustment range, and are prone to generating spin torque, resulting in insufficient stability. They cannot meet the requirements of saucer-shaped aircraft for lightweight design, high maneuverability, stable hovering, and 360° omnidirectional movement. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention discloses a flying saucer-shaped 360° omnidirectional drive device. By adjusting the power propulsion component at multiple angles, the lift is decomposed into vertical lift and horizontal component, realizing lifting, translation and turning. Torque can be offset by a symmetrical drive unit. The device has a simple structure, flexible control and strong stability.

[0004] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: A flying saucer-shaped 360° omnidirectional drive device includes a main shaft (1), a bearing (2), a support base (3), and a power propulsion assembly (7). The power propulsion assembly (7) generates lift by blowing air downwards. It can be adjusted at multiple angles based on the vertical state to achieve 360° omnidirectional drive. The multi-angle adjustment range includes state A with the power propulsion assembly (7) in the vertical state as state A, state A adjusted outward by 5°-30° to state B, state C adjusted to the left by 5°-50° to state D, state C adjusted to the right by 5°-50° to state E, state F adjusted to the left by 5°-50° to state G, and state F adjusted to the right by 5°-50° to state H. The device can be in state B, state D superimposed on state B, state E superimposed on state B, state G superimposed on state B, or state H superimposed on state B.

[0005] The device includes one or two sets of drive units. Each set of drive units includes a bearing (2), a support base (3) and a support, and is equipped with 2-6 sets of power propulsion components (7). The power propulsion components (7) can be in the D superimposed B state, E superimposed B state, G superimposed B state or H superimposed B state.

[0006] The power propulsion component (7) is tilted to convert the upward lift into a horizontal component, enabling 360-degree translation and steering around the main shaft.

[0007] When the device uses two sets of drive units, the first set of drive units adopts the H superimposed B state to provide the horizontal component force to the left, realizing the device to turn left and translate to the left; the second set of drive units adopts the G superimposed B state to provide the horizontal component force to the right, realizing the device to turn right and translate to the right.

[0008] The first set of drive units rotates in opposite directions to the second set of drive units, and their torques cancel each other out, so that the main shaft and external structure do not rotate with the drive units and remain stable and do not rotate. Attached Figure Description

[0011] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0012] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in this saucer-shaped 360° omnidirectional drive device, the main shaft (1) serves as the central support component and is movably connected to the support base (3) via the bearing (2), ensuring that the overall rotation is flexible and stable. The power propulsion assembly (7) is mounted on the support and generates main lift by blowing air downwards.

[0013] State A is defined as the vertical downward airflow of the propulsion component (7), serving as the baseline attitude. State B is achieved by tilting the foundation outward by 5°-30° from state A. Based on state B, states C and F are established as baselines, with left and right angle adjustments made respectively: State C tilts 5°-50° to the left to form state D superimposed on state B, and tilts to the right to form state E superimposed on state B; State F tilts to the left to form state G superimposed on state B, and tilts to the right to form state H superimposed on state B. These composite angle states enable vector decomposition of lift, generating a horizontal component force while providing lift.

[0014] The device can be equipped with one or two sets of drive units, each set with 2-6 sets of power propulsion components (7), which are arranged in layers with long support (4) and short support (5). When two sets of drive units are used, one set adopts the H superimposed B state to generate a leftward horizontal component force to achieve left translation and left turn; the other set adopts the G superimposed B state to generate a rightward horizontal component force to achieve right translation and right turn. The two sets of drive units rotate in opposite directions, and the torque generated cancels each other out, so that the main shaft (1) and external structures (8, 9, 10) do not spin, thus improving flight stability.

[0015] This device achieves 360° omnidirectional movement directly through angle adjustment, without the need for complex transmission mechanisms. It features simple control logic, rapid response, and is suitable for saucer-shaped manned or unmanned aerial vehicles, exhibiting excellent maneuverability and stability.
