AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, the power supply of rotor-related components is electrically connected by carbon brushes, which has the risk of carbon powder falling, resulting in unstable power supply. The carbon brush design increases the weight of the aircraft, which is not conducive to lightweight design.
The conductive reed blade and a rotating assembly are electrically connected to the first battery through the first end of the conductive reed blade, and the second end extends to the outer side wall of the conductive base body to fit. The centrifugal force of the rotating assembly is used to disconnect the second end of the conductive reed blade from the joint connection with the conductive base body, thereby achieving stability and reliability of the electrical connection.
The need for carbon brushes ensures the stability and reliability of the electrical connection between the rotating assembly and the conductive base, while reducing the weight of the rotating charging device.

[0002] The rotor is an important component of an aircraft (such as a flying car). The rotor is driven to rotate by a motor or other drive parts. The rotating rotor can drive the flying car to fly. After the rotor stops rotating, the drive parts usually need to be charged to ensure that the drive parts have sufficient power. In the prior art, the power supply of the rotor-related components is usually achieved through the electrical connection of carbon brushes. The disadvantage of the above solution is that there is an inevitable risk of carbon powder falling during the rotation of the carbon brush, which makes the rotor-related components powered by the carbon brush electrical connection have the problem of no carbon powder and low reliability. In addition, the carbon brush design will also increase the overall weight of the aircraft, which is not conducive to the lightweight design of the aircraft. Utility Model Content

[0025] The first end of the conductive spring 3 is mounted on the rotating assembly 2 and electrically connected to the first battery, the second end of the conductive spring 3 extends to fit with the outer wall of the conductive seat 1, the driving member is connected to the rotating assembly 2, and the driving member is used to drive the rotating assembly 2 to rotate, and make the second end of the conductive spring 3 that rotates with the rotating assembly 2 disconnect from the fitting connection with the conductive seat 1 under the action of centrifugal force.

[0026] In the present utility model, the first end of the conductive spring 3 is mounted on the rotating assembly 2 and electrically connected to the first battery, the second end of the conductive spring 3 extends to fit with the outer wall of the conductive seat 1, the driving member is connected to the rotating assembly 2, the driving member is used to drive the rotating assembly 2 to rotate, and the second end of the conductive spring 3 that rotates with the rotating assembly 2 is disconnected from the fitting connection with the conductive seat 1 under the action of centrifugal force; when the driving member drives the rotating assembly 2 to rotate, the second end of the conductive spring 3 is separated from the conductive seat 1, at this time, the circuit between the conductive seat 1, the conductive spring 3 and the first battery is in a disconnected state. When the rotating assembly 2 stops rotating, the second end of the conductive spring 3 contacts the conductive seat 1, at this time, the conductive seat 1 is electrically connected to the first battery through the conductive spring 3; the second battery electrically connected to the conductive seat 1 can charge the first battery through the conductive seat 1 and the conductive spring 3 in sequence, and the conductive spring 3 in contact with the conductive seat 1 provides a positioning signal for the rotating assembly 2.
[0027] In this embodiment, the conductive spring sheet 3 is disconnected from the conductive base body 1 through the centrifugal force of the rotating component 2, so there is no need to set carbon brushes between the rotating component 2 and the conductive base body 1, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the electrical connection between the rotating component 2 and the conductive base body 1; and the conductive spring sheet 3 is thinner and lighter, thereby reducing the weight of the rotating charging device.
[0028] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the rotating assembly 2 includes a shell cover 21 rotatably mounted on the conductive seat 1, and a plurality of paddles 22 spaced apart on the shell cover 21, and the accommodating space is arranged between the shell cover 21 and the conductive seat 1; the driving member is connected to the shell cover 21 and is used to drive the shell cover 21 to drive all the paddles 22 to rotate.

It can be understood that the rotating section can have a certain elastic force. When the conductive spring 3 does not rotate or the rotating speed is not large, the rotating section can apply a certain elastic force to the free section so that the free section fits on the conductive seat body 1; when the conductive spring 3 rotates, the centrifugal force of the free section will overcome the elastic force applied by the rotating section to the free section, and the free section will leave the conductive seat body 1.
