Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle equipment, in particular to an electronically controlled oil supply device for an engine of a model aircraft and a unmanned aerial vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the fuel supply system for model aircraft or drones typically consists of a fuel tank, fuel pipe, carburetor, and weight. The fuel pipe, which extends into the fuel tank, is connected to the weight at one end and directly to the carburetor's oil inlet at the other. The negative pressure generated within the cylinder during engine operation drives the carburetor's diaphragm to pump oil, forming a so-called mechanical fuel supply system. However, this mechanical fuel supply system has several drawbacks. First, bubbles easily form in the fuel tank during flight, and the carburetor can easily inhale these bubbles, causing the engine to stall. Second, when the fuel tank is low, large pitch movements of the aircraft or drone can easily expose the weight above the fuel level, preventing the carburetor from drawing fuel, which can also cause the engine to stall and potentially cause the aircraft or drone to fall and be damaged. Third, this fuel supply system cannot maintain stable fuel pressure, making it impossible to accurately control the fuel supply volume and fuel atomization. Therefore, an electronically controlled fuel supply device for engine models and drones is proposed. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0017] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: an electronically controlled fuel supply device for an engine of a model aircraft and a UAV, comprising a fuel tank 1, a fuel supply pipeline 2, and a fuel supply device, such as Figure 1 As shown, one end of the oil supply line 2 is connected to a weight 3 and is arranged inside the fuel tank 1 to ensure that the oil supply line is located at the bottom of the fuel to ensure the oil supply effect. The other end of the oil supply line 2 is connected to the oil supply device, and the oil supply device includes a micro gear pump 4. The micro gear pump 4 is driven by a drive motor 5. The liquid inlet end of the micro gear pump 4 is connected to the oil supply line 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the liquid outlet end of the micro gear pump 4 is connected with a buffer chamber 6, and the fuel is first pumped into the buffer chamber 6 to reduce the bubbles in the fuel from being pumped into the engine. An adjusting tube 7 is provided inside the buffer chamber 6, and a movable block 8 is provided inside the adjusting tube 7. The outer peripheral surface of the movable block 8 fits the inner wall of the adjusting tube 7, and the movable block 8 can slide along the axial direction of the adjusting tube 7. A through groove 9 is provided through the end surface of the movable block 8, and a through hole 10 is provided through the side wall of the adjusting tube 7 corresponding to the through groove 9. One end of an oil outlet pipe 11 is connected to the outer surface of the adjusting tube 7 corresponding to the through hole 10, and the other end of the oil outlet pipe 11 penetrates the side wall of the buffer chamber 6 and is connected to the engine. The fuel pumped into the buffer chamber 6 flows into the oil outlet pipe 11 through the through hole 10 and the through groove 9. By controlling the position of the movable block 8 inside the adjusting tube 7 and the cross-sectional area of the through hole 10 and the through groove 9, the oil supply pressure is adjusted.
[0018] Specifically, one end of the regulating tube 7 passes through the side wall of the buffer chamber 6, and the inner circumference of the end of the regulating tube 7 away from the side wall of the buffer chamber 6 is fixedly connected to the limit ring 12. An elastic element is provided between the regulating tube 7 and the movable block 8. The elastic element can be a spring. Under the action of the elastic element, the movable block 8 is tightly attached to the limit ring 12. The fuel rushes into the buffer chamber 6 to generate pressure. Under the action of the pressure, the movable block 8 overcomes the movement of the elastic element, thereby realizing adaptive adjustment of the fuel supply pressure.
[0019] Specifically, the outer circumference of the movable block 8 is provided with a slide groove 13, and the inner circumference of the adjustment tube 7 is provided with a slider slidably connected to the slide groove 13 to prevent the movable block 8 from rotating inside the adjustment tube 7 and ensure that the through groove 9 corresponds to the through hole 10;
[0020] Specifically, a sealing ring 15 is provided on the outer circumference of the movable block 8 to ensure a sealing effect, so that the movable block 8 can move inside the regulating tube 7 as the pressure changes;
[0021] Specifically, an adjusting block 16 is movably provided at one end of the adjusting tube 7 away from the movable block 8, an elastic element is provided between the adjusting block 16 and the movable block 8, the adjusting block 16 is screwed to the adjusting tube 7, a cover 17 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the adjusting tube 7, and a rotating rod 18 is provided on the end surface of the cover 17 and is rotatably provided. The rotating rod 18 passes through the end surface of the adjusting block 16 and is movably connected to the adjusting block 16, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the rotating rod 18 is spline-shaped. The rotating rod 18 can drive the adjusting block 16 to rotate, and the adjusting block 16 can slide along the length direction of the rotating rod 18. When the adjusting block 16 rotates, it moves under the action of the threaded fitting to adjust the preload force of the elastic element, thereby adjusting the movement of the movable block 8 to achieve manual adjustment of the oil supply pressure. A worm gear 19 connected to the rotating rod 18 is provided on the surface of the cover 17 for rotation. The outer surface of the cover 17 is fixedly connected to a housing 20. The outer surface of the housing 20 is fixedly connected to a motor 21. The motor 21 is connected to a worm 22 meshing with the worm gear 19. The oil supply pressure is adjusted by the motor 21.
[0022] Specifically, a one-way valve 23 is provided at the outlet of the micro gear pump 4 to prevent the fuel from flowing back.
[0023] When the utility model is used, the driving motor 5 drives the micro gear pump 4 to pump fuel into the buffer chamber 6. The fuel pumped into the buffer chamber 6 generates pressure, so that the movable block 8 overcomes the elastic element and moves inside the regulating tube 7. When the pressure is too large, the area of the intersection of the through groove 9 and the through hole 10 is reduced, thereby reducing the oil supply. When the pressure is too small, the area of the intersection of the through groove 9 and the through hole 10 is increased, increasing the oil supply, realizing the regulation of the oil supply pressure, and stabilizing the oil supply pressure. The motor 21 can drive the worm 22 to rotate, and the worm 22 drives the worm wheel 19 to rotate. The worm wheel 19 controls the rotation of the regulating block 16 through the rotating rod 18, so that the regulating block 16 slides under the action of the threaded fit, and the preload force of the elastic element is adjusted to regulate the oil supply pressure while ensuring the stability of the fuel supply pressure.
