Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, and in particular to a device for deploying the dual arms of a UAV. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional drones need to take off from a safe area and then fly to the target area. Compared with traditional drones, current tube-launched drones are smaller, more portable, and launch from a launch tube, resulting in a higher initial velocity. Typically, tube-launched drones require folding their arms before launch and then unfolding them for flight after launch.
[0003] Existing drone arm deployment devices typically have one deployment device for every two drone arms. Each deployment device has two spiral springs that drive one arm to deploy. This requires a spiral spring structure that is the same number of drone arms, making the drone arm deployment device quite complex. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to propose a dual-arm deployment device for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which aims to simplify the structure of the UAV arm deployment device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a dual-arm deployment device for unmanned aerial vehicles, comprising:

[0013] Optionally, a first limiting post is provided on the outer side of the first box body. In the stored state, the first limiting post is spaced apart from the second box body. In the unfolded state, the first limiting post abuts against the second box body to prevent the first box body from continuing to rotate relative to the second box body after the spring box moves from the stored state to the unfolded state.
[0014] Optionally, a second limiting post is provided on the outer side of the second box. In the retracted state, the second limiting post is spaced apart from the first box.

[0021] This utility model's technical solution involves installing a spiral spring within a spring box. The spring box includes a first housing and a second housing. The first housing has a first mounting position on its exterior for mounting an arm of a drone. The second housing has a second mounting position on its exterior. The first housing is rotatably mounted on the second housing, and the second mounting position is used to mount another arm of the drone. The relative positions of the first and second mounting positions can be adjusted. In the unfolded state, the first mounting position is tilted relative to the second mounting position. A mounting cavity is provided between the first and second housings, and the spiral spring is disposed within this cavity. The inner end of the spiral spring is fixed to the first housing, and the outer end is fixed to the second housing. The spring box has both a retracted and an unfolded state. In the retracted state, the orientations of the first and second mounting positions are opposite to each other and parallel. In the extended state, the orientation of the first mounting position is tilted relative to the orientation of the second mounting position. When the spring box is moved from the extended state to the retracted state, the first and second boxes rotate relative to each other, and the two arms are parallel, facilitating the retraction of the two arms into the drone's fuselage for easy mounting of the drone in the launch tube. Simultaneously, the spiral spring undergoes elastic deformation to store elastic potential energy. After the drone is launched through the launch tube, the spiral spring elastically resets, releasing the elastic potential energy, causing the first and second boxes to rotate relative to each other, the spring box moves to the extended state, and the two arms unfold, facilitating the rotation of the rotors mounted on the arms. This comparative design, using two spiral springs to drive the two arms to unfold in sections, simplifies the structure of the drone arm unfolding device, allowing for the unfolding of both arms with just one spiral spring.

[0037] This utility model proposes a device for deploying the dual arms of a drone.
[0038] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as 1 to Figure 8 As shown, the drone's dual-arm deployment device includes a spring box 10 and a spiral spring 20. The spring box 10 includes a first box body 11 and a second box body 12. The outer side of the first box body 11 is provided with a first mounting position 1111, and the outer side of the second box body 12 is provided with a second mounting position 1211. Both the first mounting position 1111 and the second mounting position 1211 are used to mount the drone's arms 30. The first box body 11 is rotatably mounted on the second box body 12, so that the relative positions of the first mounting position 1111 and the second mounting position 1211 can be adjusted by rotation. An installation cavity is provided between the boxes 12. The spring box 10 has a retracted state and an unfolded state. In the retracted state, the orientation of the first mounting position 1111 and the orientation of the second mounting position 1211 are opposite to each other and parallel. In the unfolded state, the orientation of the first mounting position 1111 is inclined to the orientation of the second mounting position 1211. A spiral spring 20 is installed in the installation cavity. The inner end of the spiral spring 20 is fixed to the first box 11, and the outer end of the spiral spring 20 is fixed to the second box 12. The spiral spring 20 has an elastic deformation that allows the spring box 10 to move from the retracted state to the unfolded state.
[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the dual-arm deployment device for a drone is used in a launch tube. A spring box 10 is installed on the drone, and a drone arm is installed at the first mounting position 1111 and the second mounting position 1211 respectively. When the drone needs to be mounted on the launch tube, the drone arms 30 can be bent. Simultaneously, the two arms 30 apply force to the first box 11 and the second box 12, causing the spiral spring 20 to elastically deform and store elastic potential energy. When the first box 11 and the second box 12 rotate relative to each other to a retracted state, the two arms 30 are parallel and retracted into the drone's fuselage, reducing the space occupied by the drone for easy mounting on the launch tube. After the drone is launched through the launch tube, the spiral spring 20 elastically resets, causing the first box 11 and the second box 12 to rotate relative to each other to an deployed state, allowing the two arms 30 to deploy for flight missions.
[0040] This utility model's technical solution involves setting a spiral spring 20 inside a spring box 10. The spring box 10 includes a first box body 11 and a second box body 12. The first box body 11 has a first mounting position 1111 outside, used to mount an arm 30 of a drone. The second box body 12 has a second mounting position 1211 outside, with the first box body 11 rotatably mounted on the second box body 12. The second mounting position 1211 is used to mount another arm 30 of the drone, allowing adjustment of the relative positions of the first mounting position 1111 and the second mounting position 1211. In the unfolded state, the orientation of the first mounting position 1111 is tilted relative to the second mounting position 1211. A mounting cavity is provided between the first box body 11 and the second box body 12, and the spiral spring 20 is disposed within the mounting cavity. The inner end of the spiral spring 20 is fixed to the first box body 11, and the outer end is fixed to the second box body 12. The spring box 10 has a retracted state and an extended state. In the retracted state, the orientation of the first mounting position 1111 and the orientation of the second mounting position 1211 are opposite to each other and parallel. In the extended state, the orientation of the first mounting position 1111 is inclined to the orientation of the second mounting position 1211. When the spring box 10 is moved from the extended state to the retracted state, the first box 11 and the second box 12 rotate relative to each other, and the two arms 30 are parallel, which makes it convenient to retract the two arms 30 into the fuselage of the drone, so as to facilitate the installation of the drone in the launch tube. At the same time, the spiral spring 20 performs elastic deformation to store elastic potential energy. When the drone is launched through the launch tube, the spiral spring 20 performs elastic reset to release elastic potential energy, causing the first box 11 and the second box 12 to rotate relative to each other. The spring box 10 moves to the extended state, and the two arms 30 are extended, which facilitates the rotation of the rotors installed on the arms 30. By comparing the two spiral springs 20 that drive the two arms 30 to unfold in different sections, and by using only one spiral spring 20 to unfold both arms 30, the structure of the UAV arm unfolding device can be simplified.
[0041] In some embodiments, the first housing 11 is provided with a first mounting hole 117, and the first mounting hole 117 is provided with a first elastic member and a first limiting pin 112. The first elastic member has an elastic deformation that causes the first limiting pin 112 to partially extend out of the first mounting hole 117 in a direction away from the second housing 12. Specifically, the drone has a first limiting hole corresponding to the first limiting pin 112. When the drone's dual-arm unfolding device is installed on the drone body and is in the retracted state, the first limiting pin 112 retracts into the first mounting hole 117 and abuts against the drone body. When the drone is launched, during the process of the spring box 10 moving to the unfolded state, the first box 11 and the second box 12 rotate relative to each other. When it moves to the unfolded state, the first mounting hole 117 moves to the position corresponding to the first limiting hole. The first elastic element pushes the first limiting pin 112 out of the first mounting hole 117, and the first limiting pin 112 partially extends into the first limiting hole, so that the first box 11 cannot rotate relative to the drone body. The arm 30 installed at the first mounting position 1111 is fixed relative to the drone body, avoiding the drone from rotating relative to the drone body during flight and affecting the drone's flight.
[0042] In some embodiments, the second housing 12 is provided with a second mounting hole 128, and a second elastic member and a second limiting pin 122 are provided in the second mounting hole 128. The second elastic member has an elastic deformation that causes the second limiting pin 122 to partially extend out of the second mounting hole 128 in a direction away from the first housing 11. Specifically, the drone has a second limiting hole corresponding to the second limiting pin 122. When the drone's dual-arm unfolding device is installed on the drone body and is in the retracted state, the second limiting pin 122 retracts into the fourth mounting hole 129 and abuts against the drone body. When the drone is launched, during the process of the spring box 10 moving to the unfolded state, the first box 11 and the second box 12 rotate relative to each other. When it moves to the unfolded state, the fourth mounting hole 129 moves to the position corresponding to the second limiting hole. The second elastic member pushes the second limiting pin 122 out of the fourth mounting hole 129, and the second limiting pin 122 partially extends into the second limiting hole, so that the second box 12 cannot rotate relative to the drone body. The arm 30 installed at the second mounting position 1211 is fixed relative to the drone body, avoiding the drone's flight from being affected by the rotation of the arm 30 installed at the second mounting position 1211 relative to the drone body.
[0043] In some embodiments, a first mounting tube 111 is provided on one side of the first housing 11. The cavity inside the first mounting tube 111 forms a first mounting position 1111. The first mounting tube 111 has two first notches that penetrate the side wall and the outer end of the tube. The first mounting tube 111 has a first threaded hole and a first through hole facing the first threaded hole. The first threaded hole and the first through hole are respectively located on both sides of the first notch. A first screw 1112 passes through the first through hole and is screwed into the first threaded hole to adjust the width of the first notch by adjusting the screw length. Specifically, when the arm 30 is installed in the first mounting tube 111, the width of the first notch can be adjusted by tightening the first screw 1112 to adjust the radial dimension of the first mounting tube 111, facilitating the installation and removal of the arm 30 installed in the first mounting position 1111. Furthermore, the first mounting tube 111 and the first housing 11 are integrally formed, resulting in a stronger structure and simpler molding.
[0044] In some embodiments, a second mounting tube 121 is provided on one side of the second housing 12. The cavity inside the second mounting tube 121 forms a second mounting position 1211. Two second notches are provided inside the second mounting tube 121, penetrating the side wall and the outer end of the tube. The second mounting tube 121 has a second threaded hole and a second through hole facing the second threaded hole. The second threaded hole and the second through hole are respectively located on both sides of the second notch. A second screw 1212 passes through the second through hole and is screwed into the second threaded hole to adjust the width of the second notch by adjusting the screw length. Specifically, when the arm 30 is installed in the second mounting tube 121, the width of the second notch can be adjusted by tightening the second screw 1212 to adjust the radial dimension of the second mounting tube 121, facilitating the installation and removal of the arm 30 installed in the second mounting position 1211. Furthermore, the second mounting tube 121 and the second housing 12 are integrally formed, resulting in a stronger structure and simpler molding process for both.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first mounting tube 111 and the tube wall are provided with a first wire passage hole communicating with the cavity inside the first mounting tube 111, and the tube wall of the second mounting tube 121 is provided with a second wire passage hole communicating with the cavity inside the second mounting tube 121. In this way, the connecting wires of the arm 30 installed on the first mounting tube 111 and the arm 30 installed on the second mounting tube 121 can be connected to the electronic control device of the UAV body through the first wire passage hole and the second wire passage hole.
[0046] In some embodiments, in both the retracted and extended states, the first mounting tube 111 and the second mounting tube 121 are perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and are located on the same plane. Specifically, when the drone is in flight, after the spring box 10 moves from the retracted state to the extended state, the arm 30 installed at the first mounting position 1111 and the arm 30 installed at the second mounting position 1211 are at the same level, making the drone's flight more stable.
[0047] In some embodiments, a first limiting post 114 is provided on the outer side of the first box 11. In the retracted state, the first limiting post 114 is spaced apart from the second box 12. In the unfolded state, the first limiting post 114 abuts against the second box 12 to prevent the first box 11 from continuing to rotate relative to the second box 12 after the spring box 10 moves from the retracted state to the unfolded state. A second limiting post 124 is provided on the outer side of the second box 12. In the retracted state, the second limiting post 124 is spaced apart from the first box 11. In the unfolded state, the second limiting post 124 abuts against the first box 11 to prevent the second box 12 from continuing to rotate relative to the first box 11 after the spring box 10 moves from the retracted state to the unfolded state. Specifically, when the spring box 10 moves from the retracted state to the unfolded state, the first limiting post 114 abuts against the second box 12, restricting the first box 11 from continuing to rotate relative to the second box 12. This prevents the arm 30 installed at the first mounting position 1111 from rotating relative to the arm 30 installed at the second mounting position 1211 during drone flight, making the drone's flight more stable. When the spring box 10 moves from the retracted state to the unfolded state, the second limiting post 124 abuts against the first box 11, restricting the second box 12 from continuing to rotate relative to the first box 11. This further prevents the arm 30 installed at the second mounting position 1211 from rotating relative to the arm 30 installed at the first mounting position 1111 during drone flight, making the drone's flight more stable.
[0048] In some embodiments, the spring box 10 includes a mounting shaft 13, a first box body 11 has a third mounting hole 118, and a second box body 12 has a fourth mounting hole 129. The second box body 12 is rotatably fitted onto the mounting shaft 13 through the fourth mounting hole 129, and the first box body 11 is rotatably fitted onto the mounting shaft 13 through the third mounting hole 118. Specifically, this allows both the first box body 11 and the second box body to be rotatably mounted on the mounting shaft 13, enabling the first box body 11 and the second box body 12 to be mounted and rotate relative to each other. This rotatable mounting structure is simpler than mounting one of the first box body 11 and the second box body 12 onto the mounting shaft 13.
[0049] In some embodiments, a limiting head 131 is provided at one end of the mounting shaft 13 extending out of the third mounting hole 118. The size of the limiting head 131 is larger than the radial size of the third mounting hole 118. An external thread is provided at one end of the mounting shaft 13 extending out of the fourth mounting hole 129. A limiting nut 132 is screwed onto the external thread. The size of the limiting nut 132 is larger than the radial size of the fourth mounting hole 129. Specifically, this setting of the limiting head 131 and the limiting nut 132 limits the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, preventing the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 from slipping off the end of the rotating shaft. At the same time, the limiting nut 132 is screwed onto the external thread, facilitating the disassembly of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 from the rotating shaft.
[0050] In some embodiments, the mounting shaft 13 is fitted with a first washer 14 and a second washer 15. The first washer 14 is located between the limiting head 131 and the first housing 11, and the second washer 15 is located between the limiting nut 132 and the second housing 12. Specifically, the first washer 14 is positioned between the limiting head 131 and the first housing 11 to prevent the limiting head 131 from rubbing against the first housing 11 and damaging it during use. The first washer 14 is positioned between the limiting nut 132 and the second housing 12 to prevent the limiting nut 132 from rubbing against the second housing 12 and damaging it during use.
[0051] In some embodiments, a third mounting tube 115 is provided inside the first housing 11, and a fourth mounting tube 125 is provided inside the second housing 12. A third mounting hole 118 penetrates the third mounting tube 115, and a fourth mounting hole 129 penetrates the fourth mounting tube 125. A third gasket 16 is sleeved on the mounting shaft 13, and the third gasket 16 is located between the third mounting tube 115 and the fourth mounting tube 125. The third mounting tube 115 is provided with a first mounting groove 1151, and the inner wall of the second housing 12 is provided with a second mounting groove 127. The inner end of the spiral spring 20 is fixed to the first mounting groove 1151, and the outer end of the spiral spring 20 is fixed to the second mounting groove 127. Specifically, the first housing 11 is mounted on the mounting shaft 13 via the third mounting tube 115, and the second housing 12 is mounted on the mounting shaft 13 via the fourth mounting tube 125. This provides a more stable rotational mounting structure for the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. Furthermore, the third washer 16 separates the third mounting tube 115 and the fourth mounting tube 125, preventing them from rubbing against each other and wearing out during rotation. The first mounting groove 1151 and the second mounting groove 127 facilitate the installation of the spiral spring 20, eliminating the need for additional spiral spring 20 fixing structures on the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. Additionally, lubricant is provided between the third mounting tube 115 and the mounting shaft 13, and between the fourth mounting tube 125 and the mounting shaft 13.
[0052] In some embodiments, a first reinforcing rib 116 is connected between the first mounting tube 111 and the first housing 11; a second reinforcing rib 126 is connected between the second mounting tube 121 and the second housing 12.
[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
