[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , an embodiment provided by the present utility model: a lightweight unmanned aerial vehicle, including an unmanned aerial vehicle main body 1 and an aileron arm 7. An outer wall of the unmanned aerial vehicle main body 1 is fixedly connected with a main wing arm 2. One end of the main wing arm 2 is fixedly installed with a power supply socket 3. One end of the main wing arm 2 is provided with a force receiving socket 4. A limiting socket 5 is provided on an upper surface of the main wing arm 2. One end of the aileron arm 7 is fixedly installed with a power supply plug 8. One end of the power supply plug 8 is inserted into the power supply socket 3. One end of the aileron arm 7 is inserted with a force receiving bar 9. One end of the force receiving bar 9 is inserted into the force receiving socket 4. A fixing hole 10 is provided on an upper surface of the force receiving bar 9. A positioning pin 11 is inserted into inner walls of the limiting socket 5 and the fixing hole 10. By inserting the aileron arm 7 onto the main wing arm 2, the power supply plug 8 can be inserted into the power supply socket 3 for power-on use. At the same time, the force receiving bar 9 is inserted into the force receiving socket 4 for docking and force receiving, and the positioning pin 11 is inserted into the fixing hole 10 for limiting, so as to ensure that the weight of the unmanned aerial vehicle main body 1 can be borne during flight, enabling the device to form a detachable structure.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , a limiting groove 6 is provided on an inner wall of the limiting socket 5. A limiting convex block 12 is fixedly connected to a top of the positioning pin 11. The limiting convex block 12 is located in the limiting groove 6. By inserting the positioning pin 11, the problem of loosening of the force receiving bar 9 is restricted. After the positioning pin 11 is inserted in place, the positioning pin 11 can be rotated to move the limiting convex block 12 on the outer wall to the innermost end of the limiting groove 6. Since the top of the limiting convex block 12 is blocked, the positioning pin 11 is limited and cannot be separated from the limiting socket 5, enabling the positioning pin 11 to be stably inserted to restrict the force receiving bar 9 under the flight shaking of the unmanned aerial vehicle main body 1, so as to improve the stability and firmness of the assembled aileron arm 7, and to ensure the stability and safety during long-term flight;

[0032] One end of the aileron arm 7 is fixedly connected with an assembly seat 13. A brushless motor 15 is inserted into the interior of the assembly seat 13. A threaded gland 16 is inserted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft of the brushless motor 15. The bottom end of the threaded gland 16 is threadedly connected to the top of the assembly seat 13. By inserting the brushless motor 15 into the assembly seat 13 and threadedly connecting the threaded gland 16 on the brushless motor 15 to the assembly seat 13, after the threaded gland 16 is threadedly connected in place, the lower brushless motor 15 can be tightly fixed for use. This assembly method can be quickly disassembled and assembled. When the aileron arm 7 is damaged, the brushless motor 15 can be removed and assembled on a new aileron arm 7 for use, so as to improve the utilization rate of components and reduce the maintenance cost. Moreover, the structure that is convenient for disassembly and assembly can be used to replace brushless motors 15 of different models according to one's own needs, which is convenient for users to modify and improve the use experience. An energizing head 14 is arranged at the bottom of the assembly seat 13. There is an energizing hole at the bottom of the brushless motor 15 inserted on the energizing head 14.

[0033] Embodiment 3

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , a rotating head is fixedly welded on the upper surface of the positioning pin 11 at the position of the limiting convex block 12. A notch is opened at the top of one end of the limiting groove 6. The limiting convex block 12 has the same shape and size as the notch. By setting the notch, the limiting convex block 12 can be aligned with the notch and placed down to ensure that the positioning pin 11 can be smoothly inserted into the limiting jack 5. At the same time, after insertion, the rotating head can be used to push the positioning pin 11 to rotate, so that the limiting convex block 12 rotates to the other end in the limiting groove 6 to abut and limit. Two groups of force-receiving jacks 4 are opened at one end of the main wing arm 2. Two groups of force-receiving bars 9 are inserted into one end of the aileron arm 7. The two groups of force-receiving bars 9 are inserted into the force-receiving jacks 4 at corresponding positions. The force-receiving bars 9 are aluminum alloy bars. By setting the upper and lower two groups of force-receiving jacks 4 and the force-receiving bars 9 for insertion and fixation, the upper and lower surfaces of the main wing arm 2 and the aileron arm 7 can be supported, improving the force-bearing strength at the upper and lower ends of the connection, so as to ensure that the force in the direction can be withstood and improving the stability and safety of the UAV body 1 during flight. At the same time, by embedding the aluminum alloy bars in the aileron arm 7, the high-strength property of the aluminum alloy bars can be used to improve the bearing capacity, and the aluminum alloy material is lighter, which can reduce the weight of the UAV body 1 while ensuring the strength;

[0035] One end of the power-on base 3 is connected to the control board of the drone body 1 by a data cable. The power-on plug 8 and the power-on head 14 are connected by a data cable.

The bottom of the assembly base 13 is fixedly connected with a support foot 17. The bottom end of the support foot 17 is lower than the lower surface of the drone body 1. By fixedly connecting the support foot 17 to the bottom of the assembly base 13, the drone body 1 can be supported, so that the drone body 1 does not contact the ground from the bottom. In case of water accumulation on the road surface or complex road conditions on rainy days, it can support and separate from the ground to protect the drone body 1 from damage.

[0036] Working principle: When replacing, insert the aileron arm 7 into one end of the main wing arm 2. While inserting, insert the power-on plug 8 into the power-on base 3, and insert the force-bearing bar 9 into the force-bearing jack 4 to bear. After inserting in place, insert the positioning pin 11 into the limit jack 5, and align the limit convex block 12 with the notch in the limit groove 6. Then rotate the positioning pin 11 to make the limit convex block 12 enter the limit groove 6 for limiting, thus completing the limiting of the force-bearing bar 9. At this time, the replacement of the new aileron arm 7 is completed. Insert the brushless motor 15 into the assembly base 13, and thread the thread cover 16 on the brushless motor 15 onto the assembly base 13. After the thread cover 16 is threaded in place, the lower brushless motor 15 can be firmly fixed for use.

[0037] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present invention.
