Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation technology, and in particular to a flying car. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of technology and the increasing diversity of application scenarios, efficient travel and door-to-door convenience have become urgently needed new models for both daily commutes and customized needs of professional departments. Therefore, low-altitude transportation is gradually attracting more attention. However, in some special application scenarios and time environments, a single car may not be able to reach the destination on time; while small aircraft such as helicopters have certain limitations and are difficult to promote on a large scale.

[0003] In the realm of existing technology, an increasing number of companies are paying attention to flying cars. However, current flying cars mostly employ technologies that involve mounting wings or propellers on both sides of the vehicle body, which severely limits their ability to operate within the confines of ordinary roads. In conclusion, existing flying cars struggle to take off and land in road spaces. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a flying car that solves the problem that existing flying cars have difficulty taking off and landing on roads.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a flying car, comprising:

[0006] An automobile body, including an automobile frame and a wheel system mounted on the automobile frame, the wheel system being used to drive the automobile frame to move;

[0007] A flying vehicle frame, detachably mounted on the upper surface of the vehicle frame, wherein a cockpit is formed within the flying vehicle frame; and,

[0008] A limiting structure is provided on the vehicle body to limit the flying vehicle frame to be positioned on the vehicle frame.

[0009] In one embodiment, the flight chassis includes two opposing limiting sections and a cockpit section disposed between the two limiting sections;

[0010] The limiting structure includes a limiting cover plate, one end of which is rotatably mounted on the vehicle frame, and the other end has a limiting position that rotates to press against the upper surface of the limiting segment, and a clearance position that rotates to avoid the limiting segment in the vertical direction.

[0011] In one embodiment, two limiting covers are provided corresponding to the two limiting segments. The two limiting covers are respectively disposed at both ends of the vehicle frame to limit the two ends of the flying vehicle frame.

[0012] In one embodiment, the limiting structure further includes a driving device for driving the limiting cover plate to move.

[0013] In one embodiment, the driving device includes a driving hydraulic cylinder, wherein one of the fixed end and the driving end of the driving hydraulic cylinder is disposed on the vehicle frame, and the other is disposed on the limiting cover plate.

[0014] In one embodiment, the flying car further includes a rotor structure, which is movably mounted on the flying vehicle frame and has a working position and a storage position. The rotor structure is in the working position to generate lift to drive the flying vehicle frame to fly, and the rotor structure is in the storage position to be stored on the vehicle frame.

[0015] When the rotor structure is in the storage position, it forms the limiting section. The limiting cover rotates to the limiting position to cover the rotor structure. When the limiting cover rotates to the clearance position, it allows the rotor structure to rotate to the working position.

[0016] In one embodiment, the rotor structure includes:

[0017] A rotor frame, one end rotatably mounted to the flight vehicle frame, and the other end movable between the working position and the storage position; and...

[0018] A propeller is rotatably mounted to the other end of the rotor frame about an axis extending vertically, and is used to generate lift by rotation.

[0019] In one embodiment, a charging structure is also formed between the vehicle frame and the flight frame. The charging structure includes a charging coil disposed in the vehicle frame and a receiving coil disposed in the flight frame. The charging coil is used to induce current in the receiving coil by energizing it.

[0020] In one embodiment, the vehicle body is provided with multiple vehicle bodies, and the flying vehicle frame is selectively mounted on the vehicle frame of one of the vehicle bodies to realize the switching between the vehicle bodies in different positions.

[0021] In one embodiment, an alignment structure is further formed between the vehicle frame and the flight frame.

[0022] This utility model provides a flying car, which includes a car body and a flying frame mounted on the car body. The flying frame is constrained on the car body by a limiting structure. When the flying car needs to fly, the limiting structure between the flying frame and the car frame is released, and the flying frame is controlled to take off. It is not necessary to lift the entire flying car, but only the cockpit part is lifted, which reduces the load-bearing weight and allows for a smaller rotor structure. When the flying car needs to operate normally on the road, the flying frame is constrained on the car frame to facilitate the normal use of the flying car. Attached Figure Description

[0034] With the rapid development of technology and the increasing diversity of application scenarios, efficient travel and door-to-door convenience have become urgently needed new models for both daily commutes and customized needs of professional departments. Therefore, low-altitude transportation is gradually attracting more attention. However, in some special application scenarios and time environments, a single car may not be able to reach the destination on time; while small aircraft such as helicopters have certain limitations and are difficult to promote on a large scale.

[0035] In the realm of existing technology, an increasing number of companies are paying attention to flying cars. However, current flying cars mostly employ technologies that involve mounting wings or propellers on both sides of the vehicle body, which severely limits their ability to operate within the confines of ordinary roads. In conclusion, existing flying cars struggle to take off and land in road spaces.

[0036] Please see Figure 1This utility model provides a flying car 100, including a carrier platform 1, a cockpit 2, and a rotor structure; the cockpit 2 is disposed on the upper surface of the carrier platform 1, and a cockpit is formed inside the cockpit 2; the rotor structure is movably mounted on the cockpit, and the rotor structure has a working position and a retractable position. When the rotor structure is in the working position, it generates lift to drive the cockpit to fly, and when the rotor structure is in the retractable position, it is stored on the carrier platform.

[0037] In this embodiment, the flying car 100 includes a support platform 1 and a cockpit 2 mounted on the support platform 1. The cockpit 2 is equipped with a rotor structure. When the flying car needs to fly, the rotor structure is moved to the working position, and the rotor structure is controlled to work and generate lift, thereby driving the cockpit to take off. It is not necessary to lift the entire flying car, but only the cockpit part, which has a small load-bearing capacity, so as to form a smaller rotor structure. At the same time, the rotor structure can be moved to the storage position, and the rotor structure can be retracted when the flying car does not need to fly, avoiding excessive occupation of surrounding space and facilitating the use of the flying car as a car on ordinary roads.

[0038] For further details, please refer to Figure 2 The rotor structure includes a rotor frame 21 and a propeller 22. One end of the rotor frame 21 is rotatably mounted to the cockpit, and the other end moves between the working position and the retracted position. The propeller 22 is rotatably mounted to the other end of the rotor frame about a vertically extending shaft to generate lift. In this embodiment, the rotor frame 21 is rotatably mounted on the cockpit and switches between the working position and the retracted position by rotation. This simple and reliable movement facilitates both operation and storage.

[0039] Furthermore, the rotor frame 21 and the propeller 22 together form a lift assembly, and multiple lift assemblies are provided, which are spaced apart along the circumference of the cockpit body. In this embodiment, by providing multiple lift assemblies, the size of each lift assembly can be effectively reduced, which helps to reduce the space occupied, while also facilitating the uniform force distribution on the cockpit body 2, and facilitating the take-off and landing of the cockpit body 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, six lift groups are provided, and the six lift groups are arranged symmetrically along the center to facilitate the control of the flying car 100.

[0041] In addition, the propeller 22 is electrically connected to the cockpit so that the cockpit body 2 can supply power to the propeller 22 to make the propeller 22 rotate, and at the same time, it facilitates the cockpit to control the propeller 22.

[0042] On the other hand, a landing gear is provided on the lower end face of the cockpit 2 to support the cockpit 2. In this embodiment, the landing gear is provided on the lower end face of the cockpit 2 to facilitate the landing of the cockpit 2 after takeoff and to prevent the cockpit 2 from landing directly on the bottom surface and causing friction and scratches to the bottom wall.

[0043] Furthermore, a concealed groove is formed on the lower end face of the cockpit body 2. One end of the take-off and landing bracket is rotatably installed into the concealed groove, and the other end has a concealed position that can move into the concealed groove and a support position that can move out of the concealed groove. In this embodiment, the take-off and landing bracket can be hidden by the concealed groove, so that when the cockpit body 2 is placed on the upper end face of the support platform 1, it can fit snugly against the upper end face of the support platform 1, saving the space occupied by the flying car.

[0044] On the other hand, an alignment structure is also formed between the carrier platform 1 and the cockpit 2 to align the cockpit 2 onto the carrier platform 1. In this embodiment, since the cockpit 2 needs to dock on the carrier platform and interact with the electronic components on the carrier platform, it is necessary to ensure that the cockpit 2 remains in the same position after takeoff and landing. In this embodiment, an alignment structure is provided between the carrier platform 1 and the cockpit 2 to ensure that the cockpit 2 can be correctly docked on the carrier platform 1.

[0045] Specifically, the alignment structure includes an alignment protrusion and an alignment groove that cooperate with each other. The alignment protrusion is movably installed into the alignment groove. One of the alignment protrusion and the alignment groove is located on the upper end face of the support platform, and the other is located on the lower end face of the cockpit. In this embodiment, the alignment protrusion and the alignment groove are respectively provided on the upper end face of the support platform 1 and the lower end face of the cockpit 2. Through the cooperation of the alignment protrusion and the alignment groove, it is ensured that the cockpit 2 can be correctly positioned on the support platform 1 after being lowered.

[0046] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the flying car also includes a detection camera, which is mounted on the cockpit body 2 and is used to monitor the engagement status of the alignment protrusion and the alignment groove via video.

[0047] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, a battery system is provided inside the cockpit 2 to supply power to the rotor structure.

[0048] On the other hand, a charging structure is also formed between the carrier platform 1 and the cockpit 2. The charging structure includes a charging coil disposed in the carrier platform and a receiving coil disposed in the cockpit. The charging coil is used to induce current in the receiving coil when energized. In this embodiment, the cockpit 2 is charged through the charging structure, which facilitates the cockpit 2 to start charging after it is parked on the carrier platform 1.

[0049] On the other hand, please see Figure 3 In this embodiment, the flying car 100 further includes a car body, which includes a car frame 11 and a wheel system 12 mounted on the car frame 11. The wheel system 12 drives the car frame 11 to move. The support platform 1 includes the car frame 11. In this embodiment, the support platform is the car frame 11, enabling the flying car to drive normally on roads. When flight is required, the cockpit 2 detaches from the car frame 11, and only the cockpit portion needs to be taken away.

[0050] It should be noted that the wheel system includes two front wheels and two rear wheels of the vehicle. The specific installation method of the wheel system is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] Furthermore, the vehicle body is provided with multiple vehicle bodies, and the cockpit 2 is selectively mounted on the vehicle frame 11 of one of the vehicle bodies to achieve switching between vehicle bodies in different positions. In this embodiment, one cockpit 2 is corresponding to multiple vehicle bodies, so as to facilitate switching between different vehicle bodies. It can take off from one location and land in another location. During commercial operation, since the low-altitude route needs to be kept fixed, it can first move to the corresponding location via the road using the vehicle frame 11, then fly the cockpit 2, land at another location on the vehicle frame 11 of another vehicle body, and then travel by road again, realizing the combination of ground transportation and low-altitude transportation to ensure the use of the flying car 100.

[0052] On the other hand, the flying car also includes a limiting structure disposed on the car body to limit the cockpit 2 to the car frame 11. In this embodiment, the limiting structure is provided between the cockpit 2 and the car frame 11 to ensure that the cockpit 2 can be fixed on the car frame 11 and to prevent shaking.

[0053] Specifically, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The cockpit 2 includes two opposing limiting sections 2a and a cockpit section 2b located between the two limiting sections 2a. The limiting structure includes a limiting cover plate 41, one end of which is rotatably mounted to the vehicle frame 11, and the other end has a limiting position that rotates to press against one of the limiting sections 2a, and a clearance position that rotates to avoid the limiting section 2a in the vertical direction. In this embodiment, when the cockpit 2 is placed on the upper surface of the vehicle frame, rotating the limiting cover plate 41 causes the other end of the limiting cover plate 41 to press against the limiting section 2a, thus fixing the cockpit 2 to the vehicle frame 11, resulting in a simple and reliable structure. When the cockpit 2 needs to take off, rotating the limiting cover plate 41 causes the other end of the limiting cover plate 41 to avoid the limiting section 2a, facilitating the vertical flight of the cockpit 2.

[0054] Furthermore, two limiting covers 41 are provided corresponding to the two limiting segments 2a, and the two limiting covers 41 are respectively disposed at both ends of the vehicle frame 11 to limit the two ends of the cockpit 2. In this embodiment, the two limiting covers 41 simultaneously clamp the two ends of the cockpit 2 to ensure the safe position of the cockpit 2.

[0055] In this embodiment, the two limiting covers 41 are respectively disposed at the front end and the rear end of the flying car. The two limiting covers 41 can be additional structures set on the car (fuel car or new energy car) or they can be structures on the car itself.

[0056] In some embodiments, the limiting cover 41 located at the front can be configured as the front part of the vehicle, specifically as at least a portion of the structure of the hood 41a. The limiting cover 41 located at the rear can be configured as the rear part of the vehicle, specifically as at least a portion of the structure of the trunk lid 41b.

[0057] In this embodiment, the limiting structure further includes a driving device for driving the limiting cover 41 to move, thereby facilitating the automated operation of the flying car 100.

[0058] Specifically, the driving device includes a driving hydraulic cylinder, one of which, along with its fixed end and driving end, is disposed on the vehicle frame 11, and the other on the limiting cover plate 41. In this embodiment, the rotation of the limiting cover plate 41 is controlled by the driving hydraulic cylinder, resulting in a simple structure and facilitating the maintenance of the position of the limiting cover plate 41.

[0059] On the other hand, please see Figures 3 to 6In this embodiment, when the rotor structure is in the retracted position, it forms the limiting section. The limiting cover rotates to the limiting position to cover the rotor structure. When the limiting cover rotates to the clearance position, it allows the rotor structure to rotate to the working position. In this embodiment, because the rotor structure forms the limiting section when it moves to the retracted position, it facilitates the placement of the disassembled rotor structure. This allows the limiting cover to press against the rotor structure, thus attaching the flying vehicle frame to the vehicle body.

[0060] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
