DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] 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.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that descriptions involving orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0031] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" in this specification mean that one or more embodiments of the present invention include a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with that embodiment. Thus, phrases such as "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," and "in yet other embodiments" appearing in various places in this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more but not all embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. The terms "including," "comprising," "having," and variations thereof mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized.

[0032] See also Figure 1 The present application proposes a drone for training or certification, comprising: a housing 1, a scoring device 2, and a charger 3. The housing 1 is connected to a plurality of axis arms 4, each of which is provided with a rotor 5. The scoring device 2 and the charger 3 are both provided on the housing 1, and the charger 3 is used to charge the scoring device 2.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with a mounting plate 6, and two slide rails 7 are provided on the mounting plate 6. A slide groove 8 is provided on opposite sides of the two slide rails 7. The width of the slide groove 8 gradually increases from top to bottom, and a fixing hole is provided on the top of the slide rail 7;

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a connecting plate 11 is provided at the bottom of the scoring device 2, and a sliding block 12 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 11. The width of the sliding block 12 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 12 through a fixing member.

[0035] Scoring Device 2's primary function is to evaluate trainees' performance during drone training and certification. By real-time monitoring and evaluating key parameters such as flight attitude, trajectory, and operational compliance, Scoring Device 2 provides objective scoring, helping instructors and trainees understand their flight skills and mastery.

[0036] The scoring device 2 can also enable students to quickly understand their flight performance through an instant feedback mechanism, and make targeted improvements accordingly, thereby improving training efficiency and enabling students to master necessary flight skills in a shorter time.

[0037] The bottom of the scoring device 2 is designed with a sliding block 12 that matches the sliding groove 8. When the scoring device 2 needs to be installed on the drone, simply align the sliding block 12 with the opening at the front or rear end of the sliding groove 8 and gently push it in. The sliding groove 8 provides a smooth sliding path for the sliding block 12 until the scoring device 2 is fully in place.

[0038] The quick-release mechanism makes the installation and removal of the scoring device 2 extremely fast, greatly shortening the preparation time before training and assessment, and improving the overall training efficiency; when the scoring device 2 needs to be maintained or replaced, the quick-release mechanism also plays an important role, making maintenance work simpler and faster, and reducing maintenance costs; by quickly replacing the scoring device 2, the drone can adapt to different training and assessment needs, enhancing the flexibility and applicability of the equipment.

[0039] Preferably, high-strength materials are used to manufacture the fuselage and key components to improve the durability and drop resistance of the drone and reduce the damage rate caused by student operating errors.

[0040] It is understandable that the scoring device 2 and the charger 3 are preferably symmetrically arranged on the housing 1 to ensure that the center of gravity does not move outward while ensuring that the direction is consistent with the fuselage, thereby stably detecting the movement of the drone in real time.

[0041] It should be noted that the shell 1 is equipped with the necessary components required for the drone. The specific components are not described in detail in this application, and those skilled in the art can choose to replace them according to actual needs. This application can also study the reasonable placement and arrangement of electronic equipment inside the fuselage to prevent mutual interference, such as the bottom design of PCB circuit and electronic equipment power supply module under the shell 1. The electronic equipment power supply module is used to power the drone. The bottom of the flight control seat is fixed on the fiberboard with silicone shock absorbers, which is separated from the main circuit part. The upper part is reserved for avionics equipment wiring and jitter space to prevent interference with flight control and affect stability. The GNSS positioning module is fixed on the top, and the top covering shell is designed to fit tightly with the carbon fiber plate of the fuselage and is fixed with multiple screws. A turbo fan is designed at the rear of the shell 1 to discharge heat to the outside.

[0042] The scoring device 2 and the charger 3 may be connected via a wire.

[0043] In some embodiments, the charger 3 is connected to the housing 1 via a quick-release mount.

[0044] Optionally, the quick-release seat adopts the installation structure of the scoring device 2.

[0045] The quick-release mount allows the Charger 3 to be quickly removed and installed from the drone with minimal or no tools, significantly reducing replacement time. If the Charger 3 needs to be replaced or repaired during training or certification, the quick-release mount reduces drone downtime and ensures continuous and efficient training.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 includes an upper shell 101 , a lower shell 102 and a plurality of side shells 103 , and the side shells 103 are installed between the upper shell 101 and the lower shell 102 .

[0047] The enclosed fuselage design, combined with the necessary protective coverings, enables the drone to operate stably in a variety of complex environmental conditions. Whether dry, humid, dusty, or windy, the enclosed fuselage effectively blocks the intrusion of dust, moisture, and foreign matter, protecting the internal electronic equipment from corrosion and ensuring the long-term reliability and stability of the drone.

[0048] The enclosed fuselage design also reduces the direct impact of external factors on the drone's internal circuits and mechanical components, reducing the risk of safety issues such as short circuits and open circuits caused by changes in the external environment. It also helps prevent internal damage caused by foreign objects hitting the fuselage during flight, improving the drone's overall safety.

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a connecting member 9 is fixed between the side shells 103, and the connecting member 9 is rotatably connected to the shaft machine arm 4.

[0050] The dynamic connection design allows the arm 4 to rotate within a certain range. This not only helps the drone to more flexibly adjust its attitude during flight, but also adapts to the needs of different flight missions. For example, when it is necessary to quickly change flight direction or perform difficult flight maneuvers, the rotating arm 4 can respond to commands more quickly, improving the overall maneuverability of the drone.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the top of the connecting member 9 is fixedly connected to the upper shell 101 , and the bottom of the connecting member 9 is fixedly connected to the lower shell 102 .

[0052] By securely connecting the top of connector 9 to upper shell 101 and the bottom to lower shell 102, a robust skeletal support structure is constructed, enhancing the overall rigidity of the drone. This allows the drone to withstand greater airflow disturbances and unexpected impacts during flight, while also ensuring its stability in various complex environments. This connection method also effectively achieves uniform load transfer, reducing the risk of structural damage caused by stress concentration, and further improving the durability and service life of the drone.

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the middle portion of the upper shell 101 is an open structure and is connected to the upper cover 10 , and the upper cover 10 is provided with a heat dissipation outlet 13 .

[0054] When the electronic devices inside the drone are running, they generate a large amount of heat. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will seriously affect the performance of the drone or even cause damage to the equipment. The heat dissipation vents 13 ensure the normal operation of the electronic devices inside the drone and prevent performance degradation or failure due to overheating.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a status indicator light 14 is provided on the side shell 103 .

[0056] In the complex environment of drone training and certification, real-time understanding of the drone's status is crucial for both trainees and instructors. The status indicator light 14 on the side housing 103 intuitively and quickly displays key information such as the drone's current operating status, including battery charge, flight mode, and system failures. This instant visual feedback not only enhances the user experience and makes operation more convenient and efficient, but also greatly enhances flight safety. By quickly identifying the indicator light status, users can quickly make appropriate operational adjustments or take safety measures, effectively avoiding potentially dangerous situations.

[0057] For example, the remaining battery charge of the drone can be reflected by programming the number or color of indicator lights to indicate the battery status. For example, when fully charged, all LEDs will be green. As the battery level decreases, some LEDs will gradually dim until all lights flash red. This intuitively reflects the battery status and reminds users to charge promptly to avoid flight interruptions. If the drone detects any system failure (such as a motor failure, sensor failure, or communication failure), it will immediately activate one or more indicator lights of a specific color to flash continuously or sound an alarm to attract the user's attention, promptly alerting them to the system failure and allowing them to take appropriate measures to ensure flight safety.

[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 15 are provided on the back of the side shell 103 .

[0059] The addition of the reinforcing ribs 15 effectively enhances the overall rigidity and deformation resistance of the side shell 103. Even in strong winds or high-speed flight, the stability of the drone fuselage and the accuracy of its flight attitude can be maintained, reducing the degradation of flight performance caused by structural deformation.

[0060] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a brushless motor 16 is fixed to the shaft arm 4 , and the rotor 5 is connected to the brushless motor 16 .

[0061] In drone training and certification applications, a high-performance brushless motor 16 mounted on arm 4 provides stable and powerful power for rotor 5. Compared to traditional brushed motors, brushless motor 16 offers higher energy conversion efficiency and a longer service life. This means the drone can continuously output stable and powerful power during flight, ensuring the stable rotation of rotor 5.

[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a heat sink 17 is provided below the brushless motor 16 .

[0063] Installing a heat sink 17 effectively reduces the operating temperature of the brushless motor 16, ensuring it remains within its optimal operating range. This measure not only extends the motor's lifespan and reduces failure rates due to overheating, but also improves the drone's overall stability and reliability. During training and certification, trainees can focus more on practicing their flight skills without worrying about motor overheating impacting their training and assessments.

[0064] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention, and should all be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
