[0023] Optionally, the drone parking area (3) is set up in correspondence with the drone charging station (4), and the drone parking area (3) is connected to the energy storage system (2) through the drone charging station (4).

[0024] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment of the application, the drone parking area (3) and the drone charging station (4) are set up in a one-to-one correspondence, and the number of drone parking areas (3) and drone charging stations (4) corresponds one-to-one.

[0025] Optionally, the management area (6) includes a data processing module, which is connected to the photovoltaic power generation panel (1), the energy storage system (2), the drone parking area (3), the drone charging station (4) and the drone maintenance area (5) respectively, and is used to perform corresponding control on the photovoltaic power generation panel (1), the energy storage system (2), the drone parking area (3), the drone charging station (4) and the drone maintenance area (5) based on the operating status data of the photovoltaic power generation panel (1), the energy storage system (2), the drone parking area (3), the drone charging station (4) and the drone maintenance area (5).

[0026] Optionally, the management area (6) further includes: a communication module and a signal relay module, wherein the communication module is connected to the target vehicle and / or the intelligent drone respectively, and is used to receive the charging and swapping request information of the target vehicle, allocate the charging and swapping request information to the intelligent drone in the drone parking area (3), and communicate with the intelligent drone performing the charging and swapping task; the signal relay module is connected to the communication module and the adjacent management parking base station, and is used to communicate with the adjacent management parking base station and amplify and enhance the signal in the range of the current management parking base station.

[0027] Among them, the data processing module, communication module and signal relay module in the management area (6) are Figure 1 As not shown in the figure, the data processing module, communication module and signal relay module can exist in the management area (6) as a single device or a system composed of multiple devices. Therefore, this application embodiment only takes the management area (6) including the data processing module, communication module and signal relay module as an example for illustration, so as to realize the management and parking base station of the UAV provided in this application embodiment, and does not limit the specific.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1As shown, the drone management and parking base station in this application embodiment provides parking (i.e., drone parking area (3) in this application embodiment), maintenance (i.e., drone repair area (5) in this application embodiment), battery system maintenance (i.e., drone repair area (5) in this application embodiment), charging and battery swapping services (i.e., drone charging station (4) in this application embodiment) for intelligent mobile charging and battery swapping service drones. The station is reasonably laid out according to the market distribution data of users. It is generally set up at about 300 kilometers away from both sides of highways or national roads without changing the existing road conditions. Among them, the photovoltaic power generation panel (1) converts light energy into electrical energy and stores the generated electrical energy in the energy storage system (2) so that the energy storage system (2) can provide basic power guarantee for the drone charging station (4), drone repair area (5) and management area (6).

[0029] The drone management and parking base station provided in this application embodiment has communication and management functions (i.e., management area (6) in this application embodiment).

When the intelligent drone parked in the drone parking area (3) receives the charging and swapping task sent by the management area (6), the intelligent drone establishes a communication connection with the management area (6), flies to the area where the vehicle to be charged or swapped is located, and performs escort flight or stationary charging and swapping with the vehicle to be charged or swapped. After completing the charging and swapping, it returns to the nearest management and parking base station or flies back to the original management and parking base station.

[0031] When the charging / swapping process encounters a situation where it cannot continue, the intelligent drone will communicate with the vehicle to be charged / swapped to negotiate the nearest charging / swapping location and / or solution. This allows the intelligent drone to remain in the air at the updated charging / swapping location and wait for the vehicle to arrive, and then continue the charging / swapping process according to the negotiated solution; or, the intelligent drone will fly to a nearby managed parking base station and wait for the vehicle to arrive at the parking area of ​​that managed parking base station.
