[0030] The two groups of propeller hubs 18 are provided with propeller clamps 20, propeller blades 19 are arranged inside the propeller clamps 20, and screws cooperating with the propeller blades 19 are arranged on the propeller clamps 20;

[0031] Two sets of flange bearings 21 are provided between the stator 1 and the rotor 2;

[0032] The first auxiliary frame 13 and the second auxiliary frame 14 are connected to the stator 1 via screws;

[0033] The steering gear connecting rod 15 is connected to the first auxiliary frame 13 and the second auxiliary frame 14 via screws, and the steering gear connecting rods 15 of the pitch steering gear and the roll steering gear are connected to the first auxiliary frame 13 and the second auxiliary frame 14 via fisheye rod end joint bearings.

[0034] When in use, the two steering gear assemblies are arranged at 90 degrees and fixed on the mounting plate 8. The center of the mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected with the inner shaft 4 by screw connection. The mounting plate 8 is provided with an upward-looking steering gear 9 and a rolling steering gear 10. The upward-looking steering gear 9 and the rolling steering gear 10 are provided with an upward-looking steering gear rocker arm 11 and a rolling steering gear rocker arm 12.

A steering gear connecting rod 15 is hinged between the upward-looking steering gear rocker arm 11 and the rolling steering gear rocker arm 12 and the first auxiliary frame 13 and the second auxiliary frame 14.

[0035] The motor is mounted on the inner shaft 4 through the internal radial spherical bearing 6, the inner shaft 4 is fixed on the steering gear mounting plate 8, and the motor stator 1 is connected to the steering gear through the steering gear connecting rod 15, so that the pitch, roll, yaw and lifting movement of the coaxial helicopter can be realized;

[0036] The inner shaft 4 is connected to the fused motor stator 1 through the radial spherical bearing 6. The upper end of the connection part between the inner shaft 4 and the inner ring of the radial spherical bearing 6 is designed with a shoulder structure to limit the upward movement of the radial spherical bearing 6.

The bearing pressure piece 7 is connected to the motor stator 1 through screws, and the upper end surface of the bearing outer ring is limited by the shoulder inside the motor stator 1, so that the entire motor is fixed to a certain height position of the inner shaft 4 and cannot move; the design of the connection between the motor stator 1 and the radial spherical bearing 6 can realize the pitch and roll movement of the entire rotor, and the stator 1 and the radial spherical bearing 6 do not rotate relative to each other, thereby reducing movement friction and reducing additional power loss;

[0037] The upper end of the motor rotor 2 is connected to the stator 1 through the flange bearing 21 located at the upper end of the rotor 2. The lower end face of the flange of the upper flange bearing 21 is tightened and limited by the rotor 2, the lower end face of the outer ring of the upper flange bearing 21 is tightened and limited by the shaft shoulder of the motor rotor 2, and the upper end face of the inner ring of the upper flange bearing 21 is tightened and limited by the shaft shoulder of the motor stator 1, thereby ensuring that the flange bearing 21 can both rotate circumferentially and withstand axial overload.

[0038] The flange bearing 21 connecting the motor stator 1 and the rotor 2 is located at the lower end of the rotor 2. The upper end face and flange face of the outer ring of the lower end flange bearing 21 are both tightly limited by the shaft shoulder of the motor rotor 2. The lower end face of the inner ring of the lower end flange bearing 21 is tightly limited by the bearing pressing piece 7. The bearing pressing piece 7 is fixed to the motor rotor 2 by screws.

[0039] There is a gap between the motor rotor 2 and the motor coil 17 on the stator 1. The inner circle of the motor coil 17 skeleton is fixed on the circular end face of the motor stator 1. A gap is reserved between the outer circle of the motor coil 17 and the magnetic strip fixed on the motor rotor 2.

[0040] Two propeller hubs 18 are fixed on the motor rotor 2 at 180 degrees, the propeller hubs 18 are connected to the propeller clamps 20 by screws, the propeller clamps 20 are connected to the propeller blades 19 by screws, and are limited by another set of screws;

[0041] The structural layout of the utility model is different from that of the previous unmanned helicopter. The motor, the swash plate assembly and the rotor assembly are simplified and integrated. The motor is installed on the inner shaft 4 through the internal radial spherical bearing 6. The inner shaft 4 is fixed on the steering gear mounting plate 8. The motor stator 1 is connected to the steering gear through the steering gear connecting rod 15, so that the pitch, roll, yaw and lifting motion of the coaxial helicopter can be realized.

[0042] After simplifying and integrating the three components into one component, the number of parts is reduced, reducing the design workload; the number of overall parts is reduced, reducing the overall production cost and assembly cycle, and increasing overall reliability; after simplification and integration, the overall number of parts is reduced, the structure is simple and compact, the weight is light, and the motion transmission of pitch and roll is simplified, which facilitates the precise control of the helicopter attitude by the servo; after simplification and integration, the overall overload resistance is improved, the application field of electric unmanned helicopters is expanded, and the further miniaturization of unmanned helicopters becomes possible.

[0043] Based on the existing motors on the market, according to this design, the deep groove ball bearing is replaced with a flange bearing 21, the motor stator 1 is installed with a radial spherical bearing 6, the motor stator 1 is connected to the steering gear, and the outer end face of the rotor 2 is installed with a hub 18, which is connected to the propeller clamp 20 and the propeller blade 19. After the motor, the swash plate assembly and the rotor assembly are simplified and integrated, and the overall structure is connected to the steering gear assembly, the pitch, roll and other movements of the unmanned helicopter can be realized;

[0044] The mounting plate 8 is circular in shape, and the rotor blade clamp 20 and the propeller hub 18 can be designed to automatically unfold and fold. By using the present application, a circular cylinder-mounted helicopter can be designed, which is convenient for storage and carrying, and can be loaded in a cylinder and deployed in a specific way on certain platforms.
