Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of biomimetic butterfly technology, specifically to a biomimetic butterfly. Background Technology

[0002] Butterflies are among the most efficient and elegant flying creatures. Their flight depends not only on the flapping of their wings, but also on the shape, elasticity, and aerodynamic characteristics of their wings. Bionic butterflies are artificial systems or devices designed and manufactured by imitating the natural form, flight mechanism, behavior, or ecological characteristics of butterflies.

[0003] The design of the biomimetic butterfly stems from a deep study of the flight principles of butterflies in nature, as well as the exploration of the integration of micro-aircraft technology, robotics, and bionics. As a highly evolved organism, the butterfly's flight is light, flexible, and highly maneuverable and adaptable, enabling it to perform precise flight tasks in complex environments. By imitating the butterfly's flight pattern, scientists and engineers hope to develop micro-aircraft that can both mimic natural movement and achieve specific functions. These aircraft can not only fly efficiently in confined and complex spaces, but also be applied to fields such as environmental monitoring, disaster relief, and military reconnaissance.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a biomimetic butterfly to solve the above problems.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this application provides a biomimetic butterfly, including a main frame 1, a wing portion 3, and a wing drive mechanism 2 for driving the wing portion 3 to flap.

[0034] The main frame 1 includes a main rod 11, which is rectangular in shape. A wing drive mechanism 2, a controller 4 and a battery 5 are sequentially arranged along the length of the main rod 11.

[0035] The wing drive mechanism 2 includes a servo motor 21, and two sets of servo motors 21 are symmetrically arranged. The output end of the servo motor 21 is connected to a rocker arm 22, and the rocker arm 22 is connected to the wing part 3.

[0036] In this embodiment, the main rod 11 provides support for the wing drive mechanism 2, the controller 4, and the battery 5. Two sets of symmetrically arranged servos 21 drive the rocker arm 22 to move, which in turn drives the wing part 3 to move. The flapping of the wing part 3 is achieved by controlling the movement of the servos 21, mimicking the movement of butterfly wings. The controller 4 is responsible for receiving external commands and adjusting the movement of the servos 21 to precisely control the flapping frequency, amplitude, and angle of the wing part 3, thereby adjusting the flight attitude, speed, and direction. The battery 5 provides power to the entire system, ensuring the normal operation of the wing part 3 drive, the servos 21, and the controller 4.

[0037] By cooperating with the servo motor 21 and the rocker arm 22 in the wing drive mechanism 2, the up-and-down flapping of butterfly wings is precisely simulated, enabling efficient flight control. The wing part 3 generates thrust and lift through the wing drive mechanism 2, allowing the bionic butterfly to fly flexibly and complete complex flight maneuvers such as hovering, turning, and rapid take-off and landing. Overall, this bionic butterfly design, by imitating the flight principles of butterflies in nature and combining modern electromechanical drive technology, provides an efficient, precise, and flexible micro-aircraft solution with broad application prospects.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a first bracket 12 is provided on the outer side of the front end of the main rod 11, and the servo motor 21 is installed on the front side of the first bracket 12;

[0039] A second bracket 13 is provided in the middle of the main rod 11, and the controller 4 is installed on the second bracket 13;

[0040] The rear end of the main rod 11 is provided with a third bracket 14, and the battery 5 is installed on the third bracket 14.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first bracket 12 is mounted with the servo motor 21: the first bracket 12 is located on the outer front end of the main shaft 11, and the servo motor 21 is mounted on the front side of the first bracket 12. This design ensures that the servo motor 21 can accurately drive the movement of the wing 3 during flight, thereby generating the required thrust and lift. The forward position of the servo motor 21 helps maintain flight balance and reduces energy loss during flight. The second bracket 13 is mounted with the controller 4: the second bracket 13 is located in the middle of the main shaft 11, and the controller 4 is mounted on this bracket. The controller 4 is responsible for receiving commands from the outside and adjusting the movement of the servo motor 21. Mounting the controller 4 in the middle of the main shaft 11 helps maintain the balance of the aircraft's center of gravity and facilitates the management and control of the entire flight system. The third bracket 14 is mounted with the battery 5: the third bracket 14 is located at the rear end of the main shaft 11, and the battery 5 is mounted on this bracket. The battery 5 provides the power required for flight. Placing it at the rear end can effectively distribute the weight of the aircraft and avoid flight problems caused by the center of gravity being too far forward or backward. The unstable location also helps reduce the complexity of the wiring layout of battery 5, improving the overall compactness of the system. By installing servo motor 21, controller 4, and battery 5 at the front, middle, and rear ends of the main rod 11 respectively, it helps to ensure a reasonable distribution of the center of gravity of the bionic butterfly, ensuring flight stability. Furthermore, the independent support design of each component makes maintenance and replacement of each component more convenient, while also effectively reducing interference between different components. In addition, the reasonable layout of battery 5 and servo motor 21 can minimize the energy loss of the bionic butterfly, improve the system's working efficiency, and enable it to fly for a longer time and complete complex flight maneuvers. Therefore, this embodiment optimizes the structure of the bionic butterfly aircraft through precise component layout and reasonable support design, ensuring that the aircraft can complete flight missions efficiently and stably, and has a certain degree of durability and maintainability.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the wing part 3 includes a front wing 31 and a rear wing 32, and there is a gap between the front wing 31 and the rear wing 32. A double wing connecting block 33 is connected between the front wing 31 and the rear wing 32. A connecting rod 34 is provided on one side of the double wing connecting block 33, and the connecting rod 34 is connected to the rocker arm 22.

[0043] In this embodiment, the forewing 31 and the rearwing 32 are connected by a double-wing connecting block 33, making their shape similar to butterfly wings. The relative independence of the forewing 31 and the rearwing 32 increases the aircraft's maneuverability and stability in complex flight environments. The connection between the connecting rod 34 and the rocker arm 22 is achieved through the drive of the servo motor 21, enabling precise movement of the forewing 31 and the rearwing 32. By mimicking the structure and movement of a butterfly's wings, this design better simulates flight postures in nature, improving the biomimetic effect of the aircraft and making it more suitable for tasks requiring flexible and precise control.

[0044] like Figure 7 As shown, the rocker arm 22 is L-shaped, with its shorter end connected to the output end of the servo motor 21, and a plug hole 221 is provided on the longer end of the rocker arm 22, into which the connecting rod 34 is inserted.

[0045] In this embodiment, since the rocker arm 22 has an L-shaped structure, the angle between the long arm and the short arm can provide a larger swing amplitude, thereby precisely controlling the angle and movement of the aircraft wings. The connection method between the plug hole 221 and the connecting rod 34 makes the components easy to disassemble and replace, improving the efficiency of assembly and maintenance.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, a slot 131 is provided on one side of the second bracket 13, and the controller 4 is inserted into the slot 131. A first connecting block 132 is provided at the upper end of the slot 131, and a first connecting hole 133 is provided on one side of the first connecting block 132. The first connecting hole 133 is adapted to the main rod 11.

[0047] In this embodiment, during assembly, the slot 131 is aligned with the main rod 11 and inserted into it, ensuring it is in the appropriate position. The controller 4 is then inserted into the slot 131 to secure it, thus achieving a reliable connection between the controller 4, the second bracket 13, and the main rod 11. This design not only enhances the stability of the entire structure but also improves the system's adaptability and ease of maintenance.

[0048] like Figure 5 As shown, the third bracket 14 has an internal mounting groove 141, into which the battery 5 is inserted. The top of the third bracket 14 has a second connecting block 142, and a second connecting hole 143 is provided on one side of the second connecting block 142. The second connecting hole 143 is adapted to the main rod 11.

[0049] In this embodiment, by inserting the battery 5 into the mounting slot 141, the third bracket 14 supports the battery 5. Then, the second connecting hole 143 is aligned with the main rod 11 and inserted, and moved to a suitable position, thereby achieving a stable connection between the battery 5, the third bracket 14 and the main rod 11, effectively enhancing the fixation and safety of the battery 5.

[0050] like Figure 6 As shown, the first bracket 12 includes a fixing block 121 and mounting brackets 122 inclinedly distributed on both sides of the fixing block 121. The fixing block 121 is provided with a third connecting hole 1211 adapted to the main rod 11. The servo motor 21 is mounted on the mounting bracket 122.

[0051] In this embodiment, by aligning the third connecting hole 1211 with the main rod 11 and inserting it, the first bracket 12 is connected to the main rod 11, and the two sets of servo motors 21 are installed on the front side of the mounting bracket 122. The fixing block 121 and the mounting bracket 122 enable the servo motors 21 to be accurately installed and work effectively. Furthermore, the inclined mounting bracket 122 allows the rocker arm 22 to have a larger range of motion, which can prevent collisions between the two sets of rocker arms 22.

[0052] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
