They are also expensive and require high maintenance, making them less widely available. Furthermore, ladders have a limited range, making it difficult to effectively extinguish fires, resulting in ineffective fire control and potentially greater damage.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the utility model is a ducted fire-fighting UAV, which includes a body 11, a thrust system 12, a lift system 13, a landing gear 14 and a mission payload system 15. The thrust system 12, the lift system 13, the landing gear 14 and the mission payload system 15 are all installed and fixed on the body 11.
[0045] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the thrust system 12 mainly provides thrust for the ducted fire-fighting UAV and is horizontally fixed to the bottom of the body 11 by bolts. The thrust system 12 includes two sets of thrust ducted fan devices, and the thrust ducted fan devices include a thrust duct cylinder 1201, a thrust system protective cover 1202, a thrust ducted fan 1203, a mounting bracket I 1204 and a thrust motor 1205. The mounting bracket Ⅰ1204 is fixed to the outside of the thrust duct cylinder 1201, and the thrust duct cylinder 1201 is mounted and fixed to the bottom of the body 11 through the mounting bracket Ⅰ1204. The thrust motor 1205 is mounted and fixed in the thrust duct cylinder 1201. The output end of the thrust motor 1205 is installed with a thrust duct fan 1203, and the output end of the thrust duct cylinder 1201 is installed and fixed with a thrust system protection cover 1202. The thrust system protection cover 1202 protects the blades of the thrust duct fan 1203 during firefighting operations, and can prevent foreign objects from damaging the blades. At the same time, it has a protective effect on the human body and can effectively protect personal safety.
[0046] The two thrust systems 12 are arranged symmetrically along the axis, facilitating a stable center of gravity. The thrust motors 1205 of the two ducted fan systems have identical performance parameters, ensuring equal thrust. Furthermore, adjusting the distance between the two ducted fan systems and the rotational speeds of the two thrust motors 1205 can control the flight angle.
[0047] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the lift system 13 mainly provides lift for the ducted fire-fighting UAV. The lift system 13 includes eight lift ducted fan devices. The lift ducted fan device includes a lift duct cylinder 1301, a lift ducted fan 1302, a lift system protective cover 1303, a lift motor 1304 and a mounting bracket II 1305. The mounting bracket II 1305 is fixed to the outside of the lift duct cylinder 1301. The lift duct cylinder 1301 is vertically mounted on the body 11 through the mounting bracket II 1305. The lift motor 1304 is installed and fixed in the lift duct cylinder 1301. The lift ducted fan 1302 is installed at the output end of the lift motor 1304, and the lift system protective cover 1303 is installed and fixed at the output end of the lift duct cylinder 1301. The lift system protective cover 1303 protects the blades of the lift duct fan 1302 during firefighting operations, preventing foreign objects from damaging the blades. At the same time, it protects the human body and can effectively protect personal safety.
[0048] The performance parameters of the lift motors 1304 of the eight lift ducted fan devices are the same, ensuring that the eight lift ducted fan devices have the same lift.
[0049] Lift system 13 features a certain degree of lift redundancy. The eight ducted lift fan units are symmetrically arranged to ensure the ducted firefighting drone's center of gravity is centered on its central axis. This stabilizes the drone's center of gravity, resulting in a compact overall structure, more concentrated driving force, and higher efficiency. The axes of the ducted lift fan units are arranged perpendicular to the fuselage 11, minimizing drag during flight and improving overall efficiency.
[0050] like Figure 10 As shown, specifically, the installation positions of the eight lift ducted fan devices are the left first position, the left second position, the left third position, and the left fourth position on the left side of the axis and the right first position, the right second position, the right third position, and the right fourth position on the right side of the axis.
[0051] The four lift ducted fans 1302 on the left rotate in opposite directions to the four lift ducted fans 1302 on the right, generating a yaw moment. Specifically, when the lift ducted fans 1302 at the first, fourth, second, and third positions on the left rotate counterclockwise, the lift ducted fans 1302 at the first, second, third, and fourth positions on the right rotate clockwise. Alternatively, when the lift ducted fans 1302 at the first, fourth, second, and third positions on the left rotate clockwise, the lift ducted fans 1302 at the first, second, third, and fourth positions on the right rotate counterclockwise.
[0052] As can be seen, the lift system 13 has a certain degree of safety redundancy. For example, if the lift ducted fan unit in the first left position fails, the lift ducted fan units in the fourth right position are controlled to fail, ensuring equal lift on both sides of the ducted firefighting drone and preventing the drone from yaw and losing control. The remaining six lift ducted fan units can also provide sufficient lift to ensure the normal operation of the ducted firefighting drone.
[0053] Two sets of landing gears 14 are fixedly mounted on the bottom of the fuselage 11 via landing gear mounting plates, and the landing gears are C-shaped.
[0054] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the mission payload system 15 includes an adjustable spray device 1501, two sets of window breakers 1502, an optoelectronic pod 1503, several sets of cameras 1504, several sets of searchlights 1505, and a loudspeaker 1506. The adjustable spray device 1501 includes a telescopic tube 15011; the two sets of window breakers 1502 are installed at the front of the fuselage 11; the optoelectronic pod 1503 is used for reconnaissance, surveillance, and target positioning; the several sets of cameras 1504 are installed at the front, left, right, bottom, and rear of the fuselage 11; the searchlights 1505 can provide long-range illumination and concentrated beams. Several sets of searchlights 1505 are installed at the front and bottom of the fuselage 11, providing clear illumination of the fire scene and the ground; and the loudspeaker 1506 is used for broadcast voice communication, assisting operators and command personnel in large-scale personnel mobilization and information transmission.
[0055] Among them, the rotation speed of the thrust motor 1205 is proportional to the water spray pressure of the adjustable injection device 1501, which makes the recoil of the adjustable injection device 1501 equal to the propulsion force of the thrust ducted fan 1203, greatly improving the stability of the ducted fire-fighting drone.
[0056] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the fuselage 11 includes a base plate 1101, a coaming 1102, a crossbeam 1103, a crossbeam bulkhead 1104, a skin 1105, an antenna mounting plate 1106, and brackets 1107. The coaming 1102 surrounds the base plate 1101, and the crossbeam 1103 and crossbeam bulkhead 1104 are mounted and fixed to the base plate 1101. The crossbeam 1103 has a C-shaped cross section and is mounted on a plurality of brackets 1107. The crossbeam 1103 and crossbeam bulkhead 1104 are arranged in a cross pattern, with a certain distance between each crossbeam 1103 and each crossbeam bulkhead 1104. This design provides the fuselage 11 with good strength. The skin 1105 is laid on top of the coaming 1102 and fixed to the upper surface of the fuselage 11. Circular mounting holes are provided on the bottom plate 1101, the skin 1105 and the enclosure 1102. The antenna mounting plate 1106 is bolted to the skin 1105 above the central beam bulkhead 1104.
[0057] In this embodiment, the skin 1105 is made of composite materials. Composite materials have high strength and low weight, which can reduce power. The main function of this design is to bear the weight of the ducted fire-fighting drone and protect the lift system 13, etc.
[0058] like Figure 11 As shown, the present invention further includes an avionics system 16 , a power supply and electrical system 17 and a measurement and control system 18 , and the avionics system 16 , the power supply and electrical system 17 and the measurement and control system 18 are all installed on the fuselage 11 .
[0059] The avionics system 16 includes a flight control system, a navigation system, an onboard power supply, a lighting system, and a CAN driver board.
[0060] The navigation system includes a laser navigation system, millimeter-wave radar system, black box, GPS receiver, inertial navigation system (INS), flight control computer, terrain awareness and obstacle avoidance system, and communication module. The laser navigation system offers high positioning accuracy, even in dark environments. The millimeter-wave radar system provides wireless detection and ranging capabilities, and boasts advantages such as small size, light weight, high spatial resolution, and strong anti-interference capabilities. The black box records various parameters of the aircraft during flight, as well as operator conversations.
[0061] The onboard power supply includes a 6S lithium battery and a DC converter. The main components of the DC converter are relays and resistors. The onboard power supply can provide power and convert voltage levels for the avionics system.
[0062] The lighting system is installed at the bottom and around the machine body 11, and can timely feedback the working state of the tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle.
[0063] The CAN drive board is a device that can be connected to a controller area network.
[0064] The power supply electrical system 17 includes an emergency power battery and multiple groups of power sockets and multiple groups of junction boxes, and when the ground power supply system 4 abnormally, the control system starts the emergency power battery to supply power for the tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle.
[0065] The core element of the measurement and control system 18 is a radio station and a receiver, which can realize remote control, remote measurement and information transmission of the tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle. The measurement and control system 18 adopts a redundant design, which improves the safety of the tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle. That is, the tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle has two sets of heterogeneous measurement and control systems, which are a wired measurement and control system and a wireless measurement and control system. One of the measurement and control systems is the main scheme, and the other is the standby scheme. That is, when one of the measurement and control systems fails, the other measurement and control system starts.
[0066] As shown in Figure 14 The utility model also provides a kind of fire extinguishing system based on tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle, including tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle 1, fire engine 2, ground water supply system 3 and ground power supply system 4.

The length of fire engine 2 is not more than 10.3 meters, the width is not more than 2.55 meters, and the height is not more than 3.4 meters. The water spraying height of tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle 1 can reach 200-300 meters at most.
[0069] The working process of the present application is as follows:
[0070] When performing high-level fire-fighting tasks, fire engine 2 transports tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle 1 to the fire-fighting site, ground power supply system 4 provides power supply for tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle 1, the task load system 15 of tunnel fire-fighting unmanned aerial vehicle 1 is connected with ground water supply system 3, and the water path is connected.
[0071] The lift system 13 provides the required lift, allowing the ducted firefighting drone 1 to reach the desired altitude. The thrust system 12 provides forward momentum and offsets the recoil caused by the water spray. By adjusting the motor speeds of the lift system 13 and thrust system 12, the ducted firefighting drone 1 can be adjusted to move forward, backward, turn left, or turn right, ultimately reaching the desired location.
[0072] Then the window breaker 1502 launches a window-breaking head to shatter the glass of the building.
[0073] The mission payload system 15 is connected to the ground water supply system 3, connected to the water source, and performs the firefighting task. During the firefighting process, the water spray angle is adjusted by adjusting the length of the telescopic tube 15011.

The thrust system 12 provides the ducted fire-fighting drone 1 with power to move forward and backward.
[0075] During firefighting missions, the optoelectronic pod 1503 plays a vital role in reconnaissance, surveillance, and target location.

The front, left, and right cameras 1504 provide real-time feedback and record fire scene information. The bottom camera 1504 provides real-time feedback and record ground rescue information. Multiple cameras 1504 capture and record images for analysis and decision-making by operators and command personnel.
[0076] The searchlight 1505 can provide long-distance lighting and provide concentrated light beams. Multiple groups of searchlights 1505 are respectively arranged at the front end and bottom of the body 11, which can provide clear lighting for the fire scene and the ground.
[0077] The loudspeaker 1506 can realize broadcast voice communication, assisting the operation and command personnel to realize large-scale personnel mobilization and information transmission.
[0078] When performing firefighting tasks, the measurement and control system 18 remotely controls, telemeters, and transmits information to the ducted firefighting drone 1. Through the ground controller, the operator can remotely control the take-off, landing, flight path adjustment and other functions of the ducted firefighting drone 1; it can detect various parameters of the ducted firefighting drone 1 in real time, such as altitude, speed, attitude, power, etc., and can transmit these data to the ground control station or cloud server for analysis and processing; it can obtain the location information of the ducted firefighting drone 1 in real time through the built-in tracking and positioning equipment to ensure that the ducted firefighting drone 1 flies within the predetermined area.
