Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a rudder surface linkage structure of an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Technique
[0002] An unmanned aerial vehicle, abbreviated as "UAV", is an unpiloted aircraft controlled by a radio remote control device and a self - contained program control device. The rudder surface is a hinged small wing surface or an adjustable small vane at the trailing edge of the main control surface of the aircraft. In terms of outline, the trim tab is the trailing edge part of the main control surface. Controlling the deflection of the trim tab can change the hinge moment on the main control surface.
[0003] For example, a rudder surface linkage structure of an unmanned aerial vehicle with the patent number CN220518603U includes a main body and a first rudder surface and a second rudder surface located on one side of the main body. Symmetrically arranged first rudder surface connectors are provided at the bottom ends of the first rudder surface and the second rudder surface, and a number of second rudder surface connectors corresponding to the positions of the first rudder surface connectors are provided at the bottom end of the main body. However, the above - mentioned document still has deficiencies. During use, the power component rotates to drive a connecting rod kit composed of a ball - head fixing part, a ball head, a connecting rod, and a self - locking nut, driving the rudder surface # to rotate a certain angle around the rudder surface rotating shaft. A rudder surface linkage mechanism is assembled by a first rudder surface linkage part and a second rudder surface linkage part, and the first rudder surface linkage part and the second rudder surface linkage part are respectively installed on the first rudder surface and the second rudder surface. When the first rudder surface rotates, it drives the second rudder surface to rotate. However, in the above - mentioned document, the rotation of the rudder surface is controlled by the power component. After the rudder surface rotates to a certain angle, the linkage mechanism does not have a self - locking function, making it inconvenient to fix the angle of the rudder surface after it rotates to the required angle. At the same time, when the rudder surface is used for a long time, there will be a certain amount of wear. When the rudder surface is worn, it is inconvenient to replace the rudder surface.
