[0074] In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the utility model. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the utility model can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the utility model, some technical features known in the art are not described.
[0075] In order to thoroughly understand the utility model, a detailed description will be provided in the following description. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the utility model thorough and complete, and to fully convey the concepts of these exemplary embodiments to those of ordinary skill in the art. Obviously, the implementation of the embodiments of the utility model is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art. The preferred embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the utility model may also have other embodiments.
[0076] Ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" cited in the present invention are merely identifiers and do not have any other meanings, such as a specific order, etc. Moreover, for example, the term "first component" itself does not imply the existence of the "second component", and the term "second component" itself does not imply the existence of the "first component".
[0077] It should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "inside", "outside" and similar expressions used in the present invention are for illustrative purposes only and are not restrictive.
[0078] The utility model discloses a temperature regulating device, a drone hangar and a vehicle.
[0079] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0080] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a temperature regulating device 40 includes: a semiconductor thermoelectric device 15, a first fin device 4 and a second fin device 7;
[0081] The semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 is a device that uses the thermoelectric effect of a semiconductor to cool or heat, and is also called a thermoelectric cooler;
[0082] The first fin device 4 is connected to the first side of the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 and can conduct heat with the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15. The first fin device 4 is used for heat exchange between the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 and the airflow inside the unmanned cabin 13; the first fin device 4 is provided with a plurality of parallel fins, and can exchange heat with the airflow through the fins, and has a high heat exchange efficiency;
[0083] The second fin device 7 is connected to the second side of the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 and can conduct heat to the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15. The second fin device 7 is used for heat exchange between the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 and the external airflow of the unmanned aircraft cabin 13. The second fin device 7 is provided with a plurality of parallel fins, which can exchange heat with the airflow through the fins and has a high heat exchange efficiency.
[0084] Since the first fin device 4 needs to be arranged inside the unmanned cabin 13 and only exchanges heat with the airflow inside the unmanned cabin 13, the volume of the first fin device 4 can be relatively small, avoiding occupying too much space inside the unmanned cabin 13 and meeting the heat exchange efficiency requirements. Since the second fin device 7 needs to be arranged outside the unmanned cabin 13 and exchanges heat with the airflow outside the unmanned cabin 13, the volume of the second fin device 7 can be relatively large, and the heat exchange efficiency is higher.
[0085] The temperature regulating device in this embodiment adjusts the temperature of the drone hangar through semiconductor thermoelectric devices. The semiconductor thermoelectric devices have a small volume occupancy rate and the heating end and the cooling end are switchable. By changing the direction of the current flowing to the TEC module to switch the hot end and the cold end of the TEC module, the drone hangar can be cooled or heated, providing a suitable operating temperature for the drone, reducing the volume of the drone hangar, and expanding the use environment of the drone hangar.
[0086] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 includes:
[0087] A first ceramic plate 27 , a second ceramic plate 21 , a plurality of groups of P-type semiconductors 24 , a plurality of groups of N-type semiconductors 25 , a plurality of groups of first metal sheets 22 , a plurality of groups of second metal sheets 43 , a first connecting wire 23 , and a second connecting wire 26 .
[0088] A group of P-type semiconductors 24 and a group of N-type semiconductors 25 form a unit, in which the first ends of the P-type semiconductors 24 and the N-type semiconductors 25 are connected to the first metal sheet 22, and the first metal sheet 22 is connected to the first ceramic plate 27. The second ends of the P-type semiconductors 24 and the N-type semiconductors 25 in the unit are connected to the second metal sheet 43, and the second metal sheet 43 is connected to the second ceramic plate 21. The second end of the P-type semiconductor 24 is connected to the first connecting wire 23, and the second end of the N-type semiconductor 25 is connected to the second connecting wire 26.
[0089] The first metal sheet 22 and the second metal sheet 43 can be made of materials with good electrical conductivity such as copper sheet, silver sheet, etc. The first ceramic plate 27 and the second ceramic plate 21 are insulators that can conduct heat but not electricity.
[0090] From the Peltier effect, we know that when an electric current passes through a loop composed of different conductors, in addition to generating irreversible Joule heat, heat absorption and heat release will occur at the joints of different conductors depending on the direction of the current.
[0091] When electricity is applied to a group of P-type semiconductors and N-type semiconductors, one end of the semiconductors will heat up and the other end will cool down. Figure 3As shown, when the first connecting wire 23 is connected to the positive pole of the power supply and the second connecting wire 26 is connected to the negative pole of the power supply, the first ceramic plate 27 is connected to the hot ends of the P-type semiconductor 24 and the N-type semiconductor 25, and the second ceramic plate 21 is connected to the cold ends of the P-type semiconductor 24 and the N-type semiconductor 25, that is, at this time, the first ceramic plate 27 is the hot end and the second ceramic plate 21 is the cold end.
[0092] When the current direction changes, the first connecting wire 23 is connected to the negative pole of the power supply and the second connecting wire 26 is connected to the positive pole of the power supply. At this time, the first ceramic plate 27 is connected to the cold end of the P-type semiconductor 24 and the N-type semiconductor 25, and the second ceramic plate 21 is connected to the hot end of the P-type semiconductor 24 and the N-type semiconductor 25. That is, at this time, the first ceramic plate 27 is the cold end and the second ceramic plate 21 is the hot end, thereby realizing the transformation of the hot end and the cold end of the TEC module.
[0093] The semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 has the characteristics of no noise, no vibration, no need for refrigerant, small size, light weight, etc., and is reliable in operation, easy to operate, and easy to adjust the cooling capacity.

[0096] The first fan 8 is arranged opposite to the first fin device 4, and the first fan 8 and the first fin device 4 can be connected and assembled by screws. When the first fan 8 is in operation, it can achieve the effect of extracting air from the first fin device 4, thereby promoting the airflow to continuously pass through the first fin device 4, realizing heat exchange between the airflow and the first fin device 4, and the airflow can cool or heat the first fin device 4.
[0097] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the temperature regulating device 40 also includes:
[0098] The second fan 6 is connected to the second fin device 7 and is used to drive the airflow outside the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 to pass through the second fin device 7 .
[0099] The second fan 6 is arranged opposite to the second fin device 7, and the second fan 6 and the second fin device 7 can be connected and assembled by screws. When the second fan 6 is in operation, it can extract air from the second fin device 7, thereby promoting the airflow to continuously pass through the second fin device 7, realizing heat exchange between the airflow and the second fin device 7, and the airflow can cool or heat the second fin device 7.
[0100] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the temperature regulating device 40 also includes:
[0101] The fixed bracket 18 is disposed between the second fin device 7 and the second fan 6 . The fixed bracket 18 is connected to the second fin device 7 , and the second fan 6 is connected to the fixed bracket 18 .
[0102] The fixing bracket 18 is U-shaped as a whole, and an air duct is provided in the middle of the fixing bracket 18, and the airflow from the second fin device 7 to the second fan 6 can pass through the air duct.
[0103] The fixing bracket 18 and the second fin device 7 can be combined by screw connection, and the second fan 6 and the fixing bracket 18 can be combined by screw connection.
[0104] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the temperature regulating device 40 also includes:

[0106] A positioning groove is provided in the middle of the fixing block 16, and the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 is arranged in the positioning groove. A protrusion is provided on the rear side of the first fin device 4, which can extend into the positioning groove and contact with the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 to achieve heat conduction. The rear side of the second fin device 7 can contact with the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 to achieve heat conduction.
[0107] The fixing block 16 is preferably made of insulating material to prevent the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 from short-circuiting with other components.
[0108] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the temperature regulating device 40 also includes:
[0109] The retaining frame 17 is connected to the fixing block 16 and is arranged around the fixing block 16. The retaining frame 17 can strengthen the structural strength of the fixing block 16 and prevent the fixing block 16 from being damaged.
[0110] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the temperature regulating device 40 also includes:
[0111] The heat pipe 30 has a first end connected to the fixing block 16 , and a second end connected to the second fin device 7 .
[0112] In one embodiment, the heat pipe 30 is bendable.
[0113] The hot end of the semiconductor thermoelectric device 15 (TEC module) is replaced by a heat pipe radiator, which has the advantages of an adjustable hot end heat dissipation device and high heat dissipation efficiency. Figure 4 The schematic diagram of heat dissipation by heat pipe radiator at the hot end of TEC module. As a phase change heat transfer device, the heat pipe 30 has a thermal conductivity of 1 to 2 orders of magnitude of copper, which can quickly conduct heat from the hot end of TEC module. In addition, since the heat pipe 30 is bendable, the placement of the heat pipe radiator inside the drone hangar can be adjusted arbitrarily.
[0114] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model further provides a drone hangar 2, comprising a temperature regulating device 40 according to any one of the above embodiments.
[0115] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the drone hangar 2 also includes:

The temperature regulating device 40 can realize cooling or heating of the unmanned aerial vehicle cabin 13, and provide a suitable working temperature for the unmanned aerial vehicle 9.
[0117] like Fig. 9 As shown, when the temperature in the unmanned cabin 13 is high, the temperature regulating device 40 can form a cold airflow in the unmanned cabin 13 to reduce the temperature in the unmanned cabin 13. Fig.10 As shown, when the temperature in the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 is low, the temperature regulating device 40 can form a hot air flow in the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 to increase the temperature in the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 .
[0118] like Fig. 9 As shown, when the temperature control device 14 detects that the temperature inside the unmanned cabin 13 is higher than the set value, the temperature adjustment device 40 starts to work, and adjusts the direction of the current so that the side of the TEC module located inside the unmanned cabin 13 presents a cold end, and transfers the cold energy to the first fin device 4, and then the cold air on the first fin device 4 is blown into the unmanned cabin 13 through the first fan 8, thereby cooling the air inside the unmanned cabin 13 and the unmanned aerial vehicle 9.
[0119] At this time, the hot end of the TEC module needs to dissipate heat, and the second fan 6 draws natural wind into the cavity of the outer cover 5 through the air inlet 20 on the side of the outer cover 5, takes away the surface heat after passing through the second fin device 7, and discharges it through the exhaust port 19, thereby forming a flowing air flow channel to cool the hot end of the TEC module.
[0120] The storage of the drone 9 is affected by the storage temperature of its battery. When the storage temperature is lower than the set value, the drone 9 cannot work normally.
[0121] like Fig.10 As shown, when the temperature control device 14 detects that the temperature inside the unmanned cabin 13 is lower than the set value, the temperature adjustment device 40 starts to work, and adjusts the direction of the current so that the side of the TEC module located inside the unmanned cabin 13 presents a hot end, and transfers the heat to the first fin device 4, and then the hot air on the first fin device 4 is blown into the unmanned cabin 13 through the first fan 8, thereby heating the air inside the unmanned cabin 13 and the unmanned aerial vehicle 9.
[0122] At this time, the cold end of the TEC module needs to be heated, and the second fan 6 draws natural wind into the cavity of the outer cover 5 through the air inlet 20 on the side of the outer cover 5, takes away the surface cold air after passing through the second fin device 7, and discharges it through the exhaust port 19, thereby forming a flowing air flow channel to heat the cold end of the TEC module.

[0126] The first heat-insulating layer 11 is arranged at the bottom of the hangar bottom cabin 10, and is used for heat insulation between the hangar bottom cabin 10 and the vehicle. The first heat-insulating layer 11 can be made of a heat-insulating silicone pad, which has good heat-insulating performance on the one hand, reduces the impact of the vehicle temperature on the hangar bottom cabin 10, and insulates or keeps the unmanned aircraft cabin 13, and on the other hand, has shock-absorbing performance, reducing the vibration impact of the vehicle on the unmanned aircraft hangar 2.
[0127] In one embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, the drone hangar 2 also includes:
[0128] The second thermal insulation layer 42 is arranged inside the hangar bottom cabin 10 and is used for heat insulation between the inside and outside of the unmanned cabin 13.

The second thermal insulation layer 42 can be made of thermal insulation cotton, which has good thermal insulation performance and insulates or keeps the unmanned cabin 13 warm.
[0129] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the drone hangar 2 also includes:
[0130] The third thermal insulation layer 12 is arranged inside the hangar outer door 3 and is used for heat insulation between the inside and outside of the unmanned cabin 13. The hangar outer door 3 is a sandwich structure, and the third thermal insulation layer 12 is arranged inside the hangar outer door 3. The third thermal insulation layer 12 can be made of thermal insulation cotton, which has good thermal insulation performance and insulates or keeps the unmanned cabin 13 warm when closed.
[0131] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the drone hangar 2 also includes:
[0132] The outer cover 5 is arranged on the first side of the hangar bottom cabin 10, and is used to cover the temperature regulating device 40. The outer cover 5 is connected to the hatch on the left side of the figure, and can move with the hatch on the left side when the hatch opens and closes the hangar bottom cabin 10. After the hatch is closed, the outer cover 5 and the hangar outer hatch 3 together construct the outer shape of the drone hangar 2, so that the outer shape of the drone hangar 2 conforms to the streamline shape, which can reduce wind resistance during vehicle driving and avoid generating large resistance with airflow.
[0133] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the outer cover 5 is provided with an air inlet 20 and an air outlet 19, the air inlet 20 is provided at the end of the outer cover 5, and the air outlet 19 is provided in the middle of the outer cover 5, and the air flow driven by the temperature adjustment device 40 is input into the outer cover 5 from the air inlet 20 and output from the outer cover 5 from the air outlet 19. The air inlet 20 and the air outlet 19 are both grid structures or mesh structures.
[0134] Two groups of air inlets 20 can be provided, respectively provided at the two ends of the outer cover 5. Natural wind can enter the interior of the outer cover 5 from the two ends of the outer cover 5 to increase the flow rate of the heat exchange airflow. The natural wind forms hot air or cold air after heat exchange with the temperature adjustment device 40, and then is discharged to the outside of the outer cover 5 from the exhaust port 19.

The first end of the air duct 41 completely covers the area of the exhaust port 19, plays a role in guiding the airflow inside the outer cover 5, and can prevent the natural wind entering the outer cover 5 from mixing with the airflow after heat exchange, thereby reducing the heat exchange effect. By providing the air duct 41, the natural wind entering the inner part of the outer cover 5 can basically be output from the air duct 41 to the outer cover 5 after heat exchange with the temperature regulating device 40, and the airflow is basically unidirectional. The air duct 41 can be made integrally with the outer cover 5.
[0136] In one embodiment, if Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the drone hangar 2 also includes:

[0138] When the temperature in the unmanned cabin 13 is greater than the set range, and the humidity is greater than the set range or not greater than the set range, the cooling mode is turned on. When the humidity is greater than the set range and the temperature is less than the set range, the heating mode is turned on. When the humidity is greater than the set range and the temperature is within the set range, the cooling mode is turned on.
[0139] When the temperature in the unmanned cabin 13 is within the set range, the humidity is less than the set range or within the set range, the standby mode is turned on. When the temperature is less than the set range, the humidity is less than the set range or within the set range, the heating mode is turned on.
[0140] In the cooling mode, the temperature regulating device 40 starts to work, and by adjusting the direction of the current, the side of the TEC module located inside the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 becomes the cold end, and the cold air is transferred to the first fin device 4, and then the cold air on the first fin device 4 is blown into the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 through the first fan 8, thereby cooling the air inside the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 and the unmanned aircraft 9.
[0141] In the heating mode, the temperature regulating device 40 starts to work, and by adjusting the direction of the current, the side of the TEC module located inside the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 becomes the hot end, and the heat is transferred to the first fin device 4, and then the hot air on the first fin device 4 is blown into the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 through the first fan 8, thereby heating the air inside the unmanned aircraft cabin 13 and the unmanned aircraft 9.
[0142] The TEC module has functions such as heating, cooling and dehumidification, and can realize precise control of the temperature and humidity inside the drone cabin 13. The above control logic makes the three modes in the best matching state with low energy consumption, which can ensure that the internal environment of the drone cabin 13 is always in the best drone use and storage state.
[0143] In one embodiment, if Figure 8 , Fig.11 As shown, a drainage hole 28 is provided at the bottom of the hangar bottom cabin 10, and the drainage hole 28 is connected to the unmanned cabin 13, and is used to discharge the liquid inside the unmanned cabin 13. When the temperature regulating device 40 forms a cold air flow inside the unmanned cabin 13, the air inside the unmanned cabin 13 will liquefy due to the cooling, forming water droplets that gradually gather at the bottom of the hangar bottom cabin 10. If it cannot be discharged in time, it will affect the safety of the unmanned aerial vehicle 9. The water droplets can be discharged to the outside of the hangar bottom cabin 10 through the drainage hole 28, thereby ensuring the safety of the unmanned aerial vehicle 9.
[0144] like Fig.12 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model further provides a vehicle, comprising a drone hangar 2 according to any one of the above embodiments, wherein the drone hangar 2 is arranged on the roof 1 of the vehicle.
[0145] The bottom of the hangar bottom cabin 10 of the drone hangar 2 is provided with connection holes, into which bolts can be inserted to be fixedly connected with the roof 1 of the vehicle.
[0146] In addition, according to usage requirements, the drone hangar 2 can also be set in the front cabin or trunk of the vehicle.
[0147] A temperature regulating device, a drone hangar and a vehicle according to the utility model have the following characteristics:
[0148] 1. The heating and cooling ends of the TEC module are integrated, with a small volume occupancy rate and adjustable heating and cooling ends. The hot and cold ends of the TEC module can be switched by changing the direction of the current flowing to the TEC module, thereby achieving cooling and heating of the vehicle-mounted drone hangar. Compared with the existing technology, the TEC module has a compact structure, a high cooling coefficient and strong reliability. It does not require an additional heater to be added to the hangar to achieve the effect of heating the internal ambient temperature of the hangar, so that the drone hangar can meet the requirements of use in low-temperature areas.
[0149] 2. The TEC module can have functions such as cooling, heating and dehumidification at the same time, and the conversion between functions can be achieved by simply changing the direction of the current. The TEC module can add a dehumidification function to the hangar, which can provide a dry environment for the hangar, so that the drone and the internal mechanisms of the hangar can obtain a longer life. When the detection device feedback temperature is greater than the set range, the current direction is adjusted so that the end facing the inside of the hangar is the cold end, and the cooling mode is turned on; when the temperature is lower than the set range, the current direction is adjusted so that the end facing the inside of the hangar is the hot end, and the heating mode is turned on; when the humidity is greater than the set range, the end facing the inside of the hangar is the cold end, and the hangar cooling mode is turned on. At present, the temperature adjustment function of the vehicle-mounted drone hangar is relatively single, which is difficult to meet the multi-functional requirements of the hangar; compared with the existing technology, the TEC module has a variety of functions and can achieve quick conversion of the hangar temperature control function by simply changing the current direction.
[0150] 3. This application provides a control logic for a semiconductor thermoelectric refrigeration system for a vehicle-mounted unmanned hangar, which can simultaneously control the temperature and humidity inside the hangar. When the temperature is greater than the set range, and the humidity is greater than the set range or not greater than the set range, the cooling mode is turned on. When the humidity is greater than the set range and the temperature is less than the set range, the heating mode is turned on. When the humidity is greater than the set range and the temperature is within the set range, the cooling mode is turned on.
[0151] When the temperature is within the set range, the humidity is less than the set range or within the set range, the standby mode is turned on. When the temperature is less than the set range, the humidity is less than the set range or within the set range, the heating mode is turned on.
[0152] Compared with the prior art, the existing vehicle-mounted drone hangar does not involve this intelligent adjustment working mode, which provides a control method with heating, cooling and dehumidification functions for the vehicle-mounted drone hangar.
[0153] 4. This application provides a temperature and humidity control logic inside a vehicle-mounted drone hangar, which can achieve the environmental conditions inside the vehicle-mounted drone hangar, so that the drone is in the best charging and storage state, and meet the passengers' use needs for drones. Existing vehicle-mounted drone hangars do not have a temperature control module or simply perform fan ventilation, which cannot make the internal environment of the hangar in the best drone use and storage state. This control logic is used to control the temperature and humidity inside the hangar.
