Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the interdisciplinary field of intelligent fire rescue equipment, unmanned low-altitude aircraft, and embodied intelligent robots. Specifically, it relates to a modular, air-to-ground collaborative fire rescue flying robot combination with AI autonomous decision-making capabilities. The technical solution of this invention belongs to the public safety and emergency rescue industry, which is explicitly supported by the state. It also deeply integrates with high-end equipment manufacturing, next-generation information technology, and the low-altitude economy, which are key strategic emerging industries for national development, possessing extremely high industrial application value and social benefits. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, fire prevention and control in high-rise buildings, large factories and mines, underground spaces, and enclosed warehouses is becoming increasingly challenging. Traditional fire rescue models have exposed a series of fundamental and systemic technical bottlenecks when facing such complex disasters: 1. Delayed response and limited space: Existing fire ladders, aerial platform vehicles, and other equipment have height limitations and are restricted by terrain, making it impossible to quickly reach high-rise buildings or deep areas of complex terrain. Even if firefighters arrive at the scene, they cannot withstand the threats of extreme environments such as high temperatures, toxic fumes, and explosions, resulting in the long-standing unresolved core problem of "difficulty in reaching by manpower." 2. Limited Equipment Functions and Lack of Coordination: Most firefighting drones on the market are limited to reconnaissance, broadcasting, or dropping supplies, lacking the "closed-loop" capability for autonomous entry into buildings, demolition, and firefighting. Meanwhile, ground-based firefighting robots lack high-altitude delivery and support capabilities, making them unable to handle high-rise or multi-level fires. This functional disconnect prevents them from forming a comprehensive air-ground integrated combat capability. 3. Low level of intelligence and reliance on manual decision-making: Most existing equipment relies on manual remote control operation and lacks autonomous environmental perception, path planning, and AI decision-making capabilities. In complex fire scenes with obstructed visibility and interrupted signals, operation is extremely difficult, and the success rate of rescue cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, the market urgently needs an integrated, all-scenario-covering intelligent rescue equipment that can achieve rapid air delivery, autonomous ground operation, precise demolition and firefighting, and intelligent personnel transfer, in order to solve this major problem in the field of public safety from the source. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Technical issues This invention aims to address the technological gap in existing fire and rescue equipment that cannot achieve "air-ground integration and intelligent closed-loop" technology. Specifically, it addresses the following technical problems: difficulty for human personnel to reach high altitudes or enclosed spaces, inability to extinguish initial fires in a timely manner, limited functionality of individual equipment, low efficiency of human-machine collaboration, and insufficient level of intelligence. Technical solution To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a split-type fire rescue flying robot assembly, characterized in that it is composed of a fire rescue transport aircraft (100), an aircraft entry and exit cargo handling mechanism (200), a fire rescue robot (300), and an intelligent control system (400) working together to form a complete air-ground integrated intelligent rescue closed-loop system. Firefighting and rescue transport aircraft (100): As an air transport carrier, the main body (101) adopts a lightweight carbon fiber structure. It has amphibious mobility capabilities: The ground travel uses four sets of Mecanum wheels (105) to achieve zero-radius omnidirectional movement and precise attitude adjustment in confined spaces. The aircraft employs four sets of retractable ducted double-layer rotor devices (106) for flight. These devices integrate a rotating folding wing module (106-1), which can be deployed in flight to provide powerful lift and electrically folded when entering narrow passages or during transport, greatly reducing the overall size and wind resistance. Aircraft entry / exit handling mechanism (200): Located inside the main cabin, it is the core link connecting the aircraft and the robot. Through multi-level linkage of the lifting chassis (202) and the telescopic mobile platform (204), and in conjunction with the safety belt device (205), this mechanism can accurately deliver the robot from inside the aircraft to a high-altitude window, or safely transfer distressed personnel back to the aircraft from the window. The handling positioning accuracy is ≤5cm, completely solving the industry problem of high-altitude human-machine transfer. Firefighting and rescue robot (300): It adopts a composite structure of four sets of intelligent wheel legs and four sets of intelligent robotic arms, which has strong terrain adaptability and operation capabilities. Mobility: Through the coordination of hip, knee and ankle joint modules (303-306) and drive wheel device (307), it can autonomously achieve high-speed driving on flat ground, climbing stairs and crossing obstacles. Operational capabilities: Equipped with four sets of integrated intelligent robotic arms on the upper body, the arms can perform delicate actions such as operating fire extinguishers, using demolition tools, opening doors and windows, and assisting in the transfer of personnel through the flexible movement of shoulder, elbow, and wrist joint modules (313-317). Core functions: It integrates a backpack dry powder fire extinguishing device (319) and a door and window breaking toolbox (320), and can independently select the disposal method according to the fire situation. Intelligent Control System (400): The "brain" of this invention. The system is equipped with AI deep learning algorithms and multi-source sensor fusion navigation technology. Through wireless linkage with existing fire monitoring and alarm systems in the site, it achieves fully autonomous intelligent operation: automatic fire identification and location, optimal path planning, autonomous flight and ground navigation, precise robot deployment and retrieval, on-site autonomous decision-making for fire fighting and rescue, and real-time transmission and learning optimization of disaster data. Beneficial effects 1. Emphasize creativity It pioneered the "split-type air-ground collaborative" rescue architecture: it organically combines the "airborne transport platform" and the "ground operation robot" through the "precision delivery mechanism", creating a brand-new model for fire rescue. The combination itself constitutes a disruptive creation of existing single-function equipment. Foldable ducted double-layer rotor design: In the field of low-altitude UAVs, the high-thrust ducted rotor is combined with a Mecanum wheel, and the rotor is electrically folded. This solves the contradiction between "flight performance" and "passing size" of amphibious equipment. The structural design is ingenious and has not been publicly reported. Intelligent wheeled and multi-arm composite structure: In the field of fire rescue robots, the scheme of four sets of wheeled chassis and four sets of robotic arms working together achieves a perfect unity of high mobility and high operability. Its configuration and control strategy have significant originality. 2. Significant progress A leap forward in closed-loop response capabilities: From "discovering a fire" to "extinguishing it on-site," and from "arriving at the scene" to "transferring personnel," this invention achieves a fully automated, unmanned closed-loop operation, improving rescue efficiency from "hours" to "minutes" and minimizing the risk of casualties. AI-enabled adaptive capabilities: The introduction of deep learning algorithms enables the system to continuously learn and optimize rescue strategies, adapting to different building structures, fire development stages, and the state of people trapped. Its level of intelligence far exceeds that of current conventional remote control equipment. 3. Extremely practical Full-scene coverage: It can be seamlessly adapted to various complex environments such as high-rise buildings, factory workshops, underground pipe corridors, residential communities, and warehousing and logistics, and has universal promotion value. Excellent industry compatibility: This invention can achieve data connection and wireless linkage with existing building fire monitoring systems and urban fire command platforms without large-scale modification of existing facilities, which facilitates rapid deployment and industrialization.
