Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone countermeasures technology, and in particular to an omnidirectional drone countermeasures device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the main countermeasures against drones are: first, signal jamming to disrupt the drone's communication frequency bands or GPS, causing malfunctions; second, physical capture through netting or drone interception; and third, countermeasures using laser strikes. Monitoring methods for drones include radar monitoring, photoelectric monitoring, sound monitoring, and signal monitoring. However, these individual drone monitoring methods have limitations in automatically identifying drones or updating their flight characteristics, making it difficult to meet the requirements of automatically optimizing monitoring information as drone technology advances. In terms of drone countermeasures, they cannot achieve automatic identification, flight status assessment, and terminal capture. While netting can achieve physical capture, the use of gunpowder ignition for launching places high demands on the materials used in the netting. Utility Model Content

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides an omnidirectional drone countermeasure device, comprising:

[0029] Base 1, on which mounting posts 11 are provided;

[0030] An environmental acquisition component is mounted on the outer wall of the mounting column 11;

[0031] The first countermeasure assembly includes a rotating shaft 6 and a first countermeasure transmitter 7 disposed on the rotating shaft 6. The rotating shaft 6 passes through the mounting post 11 and rotates horizontally relative to the mounting post 11.

[0032] The second countermeasure assembly 8 includes a rotating base 81 and a second countermeasure transmitter 82 disposed on the rotating base 81. The rotating base 81 is rotatably disposed on the top of the rotating shaft 6 and rotates in the vertical direction relative to the rotating shaft 6.

[0033] The first countermeasure transmitter 7 and the second countermeasure transmitter 82 each contain a countermeasure net compressed inside, and the first countermeasure transmitter 7 and the second countermeasure transmitter 82 are used to launch the countermeasure net.

[0034] Specifically, the base 1 is equipped with a mounting post 11 for installing an environmental acquisition component. The environmental acquisition component is mounted on the outer wall of the mounting post 11 to collect environmental information and accurately identify the environment in which the UAV is located. The first countermeasure component includes a rotating shaft 6 and a first countermeasure transmitter 7. The rotating shaft 6 passes through the mounting post 11 and rotates horizontally relative to the mounting post 11. The first countermeasure transmitter 7 is mounted on the rotating shaft 6 and can be controlled to rotate horizontally under the control of the rotating shaft 6. The second countermeasure component 8 includes a rotating base 81 and a second countermeasure transmitter 82. The rotating base 81 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 6 and rotates vertically relative to the rotating shaft 6. The second countermeasure transmitter 82 is mounted on the rotating base 81. When the rotating base 81 rotates vertically relative to the rotating shaft 6, it can drive the second countermeasure transmitter 82 to rotate vertically. The location of the drone can be determined by the environmental information collected by the environmental acquisition component, and the rotation direction of the rotating shaft 6 and the rotating seat 81 can be controlled to control the angle of the first counterattack transmitter 7 and the second counterattack transmitter 82. Thus, the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 6 and the rotating seat 81 can be accurately controlled according to the location of the drone, and the first counterattack transmitter 7 or the second counterattack transmitter 82 can be controlled to launch a counterattack net to counter the drone, thereby improving the counterattack effect of the drone.

[0035] In some embodiments, a first motor 62 is provided at the bottom of the base 1, and the first motor 62 passes through the base 1 and is connected to the rotating shaft 6.

[0036] Specifically, the first motor 62 is fixed to the bottom of the base 1, and the rotating shaft 6 of the first motor 62 passes through the base 1 and is connected to the rotating shaft 6 inside the mounting column 11. In this way, when the first motor 62 rotates, it can drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate, thereby controlling the launch angle of the first counter-emitting device 7.

[0037] In some embodiments, the environmental acquisition component includes an image acquisition device 3 and a sound acquisition device 4, which are arranged sequentially up and down along the height of the mounting column 11. Multiple image acquisition devices 3 and multiple sound acquisition devices 4 are respectively arranged around the mounting column 11.

[0038] Specifically, for example, image acquisition device 3 can be a camera, and sound acquisition device 4 can be a sound sensor. The camera can acquire images of the environment in which the drone is located, and can analyze these images to determine whether the drone is present. Since the drone's internal motion, such as from its rotor and engine, produces a sound spectrum, this spectrum can be acquired by sound acquisition device 4. By combining image acquisition device 3 and sound acquisition device 4, the drone's location can be accurately determined. Since multiple image acquisition devices 3 and sound acquisition devices 4 are included, information about the drone can be obtained from multiple directions, leading to a more accurate determination of its location. The countermeasure device in this invention has a controller, which can be an existing MCU. The MCU integrates an automatic calculation module with image analysis and sound spectrum recognition functions, all using existing technologies. This invention protects the device itself; the calculations utilize existing, publicly available image analysis and sound spectrum recognition methods, which will not be described in detail here.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the image acquisition device 3 and the sound acquisition device 4 each include at least four, and the at least four image acquisition devices 3 are located below the at least four sound acquisition devices 4.

[0040] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the acquisition range of at least four of the image acquisition devices 3 and at least four of the sound acquisition devices 4 is 360°.

[0041] Specifically, for example, four image acquisition devices 3 and four sound acquisition devices 4 can be set up. The four image acquisition devices 3 face four directions, that is, the acquisition range of the four image acquisition devices 3 and the four sound acquisition devices 4 is 360°. In this way, acquisition can be carried out around the four directions of the countermeasure device, and the entire range can be acquired as much as possible. More than four can also be set up, depending on the actual situation. This utility model does not make a specific limitation.

[0042] In some embodiments, the top of the rotating shaft 6 is provided with a mounting base 61, and the rotating base 81 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 61 by a second motor 83.

[0043] Specifically, the second motor 83 is mounted on one side wall of the rotating base 81, while the other side wall is equipped with an angle sensor 5. This allows for precise control of the rotation angle of the rotating base 81, which in turn allows for precise control of the launch direction of the second counter-attack transmitter 82, enabling more accurate counter-attack against the drone.

[0044] In some embodiments, the device further includes a housing 2, which is disposed on the base 1 and sleeved over the environmental acquisition component. The housing 2 is provided with a transparent glass 22 corresponding to the image acquisition device 3, and the housing 2 is provided with an acquisition hole 21 corresponding to the sound acquisition device 4.

[0045] Specifically, exemplarily, the first countermeasure component is located above the environmental acquisition component, and the housing 2 is located below the first countermeasure component. In this way, the housing 2 can protect the environmental acquisition component without affecting the emission of the first and second countermeasure components 8. A top cover can be provided on the top of the housing 2 to protect the environmental acquisition component inside the housing 2. The housing 2 can be disassembled from the base 1, allowing for maintenance of the environmental acquisition component. Exemplarily, the image acquisition device 3 is located below the sound acquisition device 4. Transparent glass 22 is provided around the area corresponding to the image acquisition device 3 below the housing 2, facilitating the image acquisition device 3 to acquire environmental data. Multiple sets of acquisition holes 21 are provided above the transparent glass 22, each set corresponding to a sound acquisition device 4, facilitating the sound acquisition device 4 to acquire ambient sound.

[0046] In some embodiments, an angle sensor 5 is provided at the top of the mounting post 11, and the rotating shaft 6 passes through the angle sensor 5.

[0047] Specifically, the angle sensor 5 is a hollow angle sensor, such as the Swiss CONTELEC sensor replacement model WAL600, MN / MHP32 angle displacement sensor hollow rotary potentiometer. It can be passed through the rotating shaft 6 and can accurately measure the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 6, thereby accurately controlling the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 6, and in turn controlling the launch angle of the first counter-attack transmitter 7, enabling precise counter-attack against the UAV.

[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the rotating shaft 6 is provided with an air supply pipe 64, and the first counter-emitting device 7 is connected to the air supply pipe 64.

[0049] Specifically, since the countermeasure transmitter in this utility model uses an existing high-pressure gas-fired network transmitter, it requires the supply of high-pressure gas. A gas supply pipe 64 is provided within the rotating shaft 6 to provide high-pressure gas to multiple countermeasure transmitters (including the first countermeasure transmitter 7 and the second countermeasure transmitter 82) to ensure their normal operation. Figure 2 As shown, the rotating shaft 6 is provided with multiple air outlets, each of which corresponds to a counter-emitter. The air outlet at the top of the rotating shaft 6 is connected to an air pipe, which is connected to the second counter-emitter 82 at the top, providing high-pressure gas to the second counter-emitter 82.

[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, a high-pressure gas tank 9 is provided on the base 1, and an air supply chamber 63 is provided between the rotating shaft 6 and the mounting column 11. The high-pressure gas tank 9 is connected to the air supply chamber 63, and the air supply pipe 64 is connected to the air supply chamber 63.

[0051] Specifically, the high-pressure gas tank 9 is used to provide high-pressure gas. The high-pressure gas enters the gas supply pipe 64 through the gas supply chamber 63 to provide pressure for the counterattack transmitter, which can ensure the stable launch of the counterattack transmitter. The gas supply chamber 63 is equipped with rotating sealing rings at both the upper and lower ends to ensure that the gas in the gas supply chamber 63 does not leak.

[0052] In some embodiments, the base 1 may also be provided with rollers at its bottom. The movement of the countermeasure device can be controlled by the rollers.

[0053] In some embodiments, a control panel is provided on the side wall of the base 1, and the control panel includes a switch button and a control button.

[0054] The specific uses of this utility model are as follows:

[0055] When countermeasures against a drone are required, the countermeasure device is switched on. Image acquisition device 3 and sound acquisition device 4 collect data on the drone's environment. After acquiring environmental data, the controller analyzes the drone's position. When the drone is to the side of the countermeasure device, the first motor 62 is driven to rotate shaft 6. The rotation of shaft 6 is precisely controlled by angle sensor 5, thereby controlling the angles of multiple first countermeasure transmitters 7. Since there may be blind spots in the launch angles of the four first countermeasure transmitters 7, the blind spots can be avoided by controlling the angles of the first countermeasure transmitters 7, enabling accurate countermeasures against the drone. When a drone is detected above the countermeasure device, the launch angle of the second countermeasure transmitter 82 can be controlled by the angle of shaft 6 and the rotating base, thereby countermeasures against the drone on top of the countermeasure device. Through the first countermeasure transmitters 7 and the second countermeasure transmitter 82, the drone can be countermeasured from all directions.

[0056] Because this invention uses the existing high-pressure gas launch and capture principle, after determining the position of the drone and adjusting the angle of the countermeasure launcher, it is launched immediately. The controller can accurately launch the countermeasure net to counter the drone.
