[0022] See Figures 1-4 , the embodiments of the present utility model disclose an oil-electric hybrid six-axis adjustable rotor aircraft, including:

[0023] The fuselage 1, the middle of the fuselage 1 is provided with the main wing 2, the tail of the fuselage 1 is provided with the tail wing 3, the main wing 2 is provided with the power cabin arm 4, one end of the power cabin arm 4 is far away from the tail wing 3, two of the main wing 2, the tail wing 3 and the power cabin arm 4 are symmetrically arranged, and rotors 5 are provided at both ends of the two main wings 2 away from each other, rotors 5 are provided at both ends of the two tail wings 3 away from each other, and rotors 5 are provided at both ends of the two power cabin arms 4 away from the tail wing 3;

[0024] The tilting unit, multiple groups of tilting units are provided, and both of the two power cabin arms 4 are connected to the rotor 5 through the tilting unit; by providing the main wing 2, the tail wing 3 and the power cabin arm 4, the aircraft can adjust the angle of the rotor 5 on the power cabin arm 4 by controlling the rotation speeds of the six rotors 5 on the main wing 2, the tail wing 3 and the power cabin, and the change of the flight attitude of the aircraft can be realized. The pitching, rolling and yawing actions of the aircraft are realized through the inclination coordination between the six rotors 5.

[0025] In this embodiment, each of the tilting units is provided on the rotor 5 located on the power cabin arm 4, and each tilting unit includes a joint motor 6, a connecting rod assembly and a revolute pair assembly. The joint motor 6 is connected to the rotor 5 through the connecting rod assembly and the revolute pair assembly, and the connecting rod assembly is hinged to the revolute pair assembly; the angle of the rotor 5 on the power cabin arm 4 is adjusted by providing the tilting unit.

[0026] In this embodiment, the connecting rod assembly includes a first connecting rod 7, a second connecting rod 8, and a third connecting rod 9. The slewing pair assembly includes a first slewing pair 10, a second slewing pair 11, a third slewing pair 12, and a fourth slewing pair 13. Two first slewing pairs 10 are arranged at intervals on the rotor 5. First connecting rods 7 are arranged at the ends of the two first slewing pairs 10 away from the rotor 5. Second slewing pairs 11 are arranged at the ends of the two first connecting rods 7 away from the rotor 5. Second connecting rods 8 are arranged at the ends of the two second slewing pairs 11 away from the first connecting rods 7. The ends of the two second connecting rods 8 away from the first connecting rods 7 meet at a third slewing pair 12. Two third connecting rods 9 are arranged at the end of the third slewing pair 12 away from the second connecting rod 8. The third connecting rods 9 and the second connecting rods 8 are arranged alternately. The end of the third connecting rod 9 away from the second connecting rod 8 is hinged to the joint motor 6 through a fourth slewing pair 13. Through the cooperation and fixation among the first connecting rod 7, the second connecting rod 8, and the third connecting rod 9, the change in the tilting angle of the rotor 5 is realized along with the rotation of the joint motor 6.

[0027] In this embodiment, a motor is provided in each main wing 2 and tail wing 3, and a joint speed reducer is arranged on the motor. The rotor 5 on each main wing 2 and tail wing 3 is directly driven by the cooperation of the motor and the joint speed reducer. The motors in the wings of the main wing 2 and the tail wing 3 cooperate with the tilting unit to control the flight attitude. The thrust of the rotor 5 is in the vertical direction during the vertical takeoff and landing process of the aircraft, and the thrust of the rotor 5 is converted into the horizontal direction through the tilting device during the horizontal cruise flight process.

[0028] In this embodiment, the tail wing 3 is arranged in a Y shape.

[0029] In this embodiment, the main wing 2 and the power cabin arm 4 are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0030] In addition, in this embodiment, the aircraft uses a hybrid power, mainly driven by the way of internal combustion engine power generation and battery energy storage. The internal combustion engine charges the battery or directly provides current to the motor during the flight.

[0031] Such as Figure 4 , for the adjustment of the aircraft attitude, through the combination of the IMU attitude data inertial measurement unit and the positioning system on the aircraft, the real-time position, speed, and attitude of the aircraft are calculated. The data of these sensors are fused and processed and then transmitted to the flight control system. The flight control system coordinately controls the shutdown motors of the tilting unit and the motors in the main wing 2 and the tail wing 3, so as to adjust the flight attitude of the aircraft. At the same time, the real-time position of the motor is transmitted to the flight control system through the motor encoder to achieve closed-loop control and ensure the stable control of the flight attitude of the aircraft.

[0032] The rotor 5 includes blades and a propeller. During flight, the aircraft is driven by an electric motor and a joint motor 6 to rotate the propeller. The propeller drives the blades to provide thrust during takeoff. The electric motors on the main wing 2 and the tail wing 3 drive the propellers to rotate relative to the fuselage 1, and the joint motor 6 on the power cabin arm 4 drives the propeller to rotate relative to the fuselage 1, so that the propeller provides vertical thrust for takeoff and landing. The electric motor driving the propeller to rotate does not require the use of a universal joint or other complex transmission mechanisms, reducing the system complexity.

[0033] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. Each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. For the same or similar parts among the various embodiments, reference can be made to each other. For the devices disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art. The general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
