[0020] The present invention provides a coaxial multi-rotor folding arm large load transport drone, such as Figure 1-4As shown, the coaxial multi-rotor folding arm large-load transport drone includes: a drone body 1-1, the drone body 1-1 is composed of a carbon fiber frame fuselage 1, a multi-functional landing gear 2, a group of double-tube carbon fiber arms 3, a coaxial double-propeller power assembly 4 and a double-tube integrated metal folding part 5, the multi-functional landing gear 2 is installed at the bottom of the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1, a group of the double-tube carbon fiber arms 3 are arranged on one side of the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1, the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5 is assembled on a group of the double-tube carbon fiber arms 3, and the coaxial double-propeller power assembly 4 is installed at one end of the double-tube carbon fiber arm 3 away from the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1.

[0021] In this embodiment, the UAV body 1-1 can be folded by the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5 and the double-tube carbon fiber machine arm 3. When folding is required, the quick release pin 9 and the anti-sway pin 10 are removed, and the machine arm is folded upward and leans against the EVA equipment cabin protective cover above the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1. After the propeller is folded, it is fixed to the outer double-tube carbon fiber machine arm 3 through the EVA propeller support. The main structure is in a folded storage state.

The setting of the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5 can realize the rapid folding of the machine arm. After folding, the volume of the whole machine is only 1 / 2 of the unfolded state, which greatly reduces the volume of the UAV and is convenient. Transport and transfer, through the configuration of the double-tube carbon fiber arm 3 and the coaxial double-propeller powertrain 4, compared with the traditional single-tube single-motor design, provides stronger structural strength and power output, meeting the needs of large load capacity. Through the design of the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5, compared with the previous folding parts, the clearance is reduced, the vibration is reduced, and the stability and safety of the UAV are improved. At the same time, the setting of the UAV body 1-1 can also greatly reduce the cost of material transportation, overcome the low efficiency and high risk of previous human and livestock transportation, and at the same time, with high structural strength, large load capacity and strong mounting capacity, it solves the problems of large-load material transportation and multi-point delivery that similar equipment cannot complete.

The locking bolt is used to connect and lock a group of double-tube carbon fiber arms 3 to ensure the stability and safety of the arms in the deployed state. The through bolts and the locking bolts work together to further enhance the connection strength and stability of the arms. By opening threaded holes on the multifunctional landing gear 2 and using stainless steel bolts to threadably connect to the bottom of the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1, a stable connection between the multifunctional landing gear 2 and the carbon fiber frame fuselage 1 is achieved, and the overall structural strength of the UAV body 1-1 is improved. The locking bolts and the through bolts on the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5 work together to ensure the stable connection of the double-tube carbon fiber arms 3 in the deployed state, reducing the risk of loosening or falling off of the arms due to vibration or external force.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the multifunctional landing gear 2 is composed of a landing gear, a gimbal camera 12, a group of obstacle avoidance radars 13 and a rubber shock-absorbing sleeve 14. The gimbal camera 12 is installed on the top of the landing gear, and a group of obstacle avoidance radars 13 are respectively installed on both sides of the landing gear.

[0025] In this embodiment, the multifunctional landing gear 2 is also provided with a mounting ring. Through the mounting ring, the multifunctional landing gear 2 can mount and transport large-mass materials to meet the material transportation needs of the UAV. Combined with the mounting ring and the flight control system of the UAV body 1-1, the independent throwing function of multiple points can be realized, which is suitable for emergency rescue, material delivery and other scenarios.

[0026] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the double-tube integrated metal folding part 5 is composed of an inner folding part 6, an outer folding part 7, a fixing pin 8, a quick-release pin 9, an anti-swing pin 10 and a group of anti-swing holes 11.

In the locked state, the anti-sway pin 10 passes through the corresponding anti-sway hole 11 to form a triangular structural layout, which effectively suppresses the vertical and lateral swing of the folding part and increases the structural stability of the arm. When the double-tube carbon fiber arm 3 needs to be folded and stored, it is only necessary to pull out the quick-release pin 9 and the anti-sway pin 10 to fold it upward along the fixing pin 8 as the center to realize the quick folding function. By pulling out the quick-release pin 9 and the anti-sway pin 10, the double-tube carbon fiber arm 3 can be folded upward along the fixing pin 8 as the center to realize the quick folding function, which is convenient for the transportation and transfer of the UAV.

[0028] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fixing pin 8, the quick-release pin 9 and the anti-sway pin 10 are arranged in a triangular structure.

[0029] In this embodiment, the design of the triangular structural layout improves the flight safety of the UAV body 1-1. During flight, even if strong airflow or turbulence is encountered, the folding parts can remain stable, ensuring that the UAV body 1-1 can fly smoothly. The fixing pin 8, the quick-release pin 9 and the anti-sway pin 10 form a triangular structural layout, which effectively suppresses the vertical and lateral swing of the folding parts, increases the structural stability of the arm, and improves the flight safety of the UAV.
